Chapter 233: Chapter 253: Should I Compensate You or Accompany You? _1

Xu Meiling, wearing high heels, walked up to Zuo Yingying like a beautiful, proud peacock, her face cold and arrogant, her eyes full of provocation.

Just now, Lin Chen’s dominance allowed Zuo Yingying to easily win a game against Xu Meiling, which upset Xu Meiling, who had always been a fierce rival to Zuo Yingying.

She wanted to gamble with Zuo Yingying again to make a comeback!

Zuo Yingying glanced at Xu Meiling, looking relaxed: "Are you going to bet on your brother?"

Xu Meiling nodded: "Yes, I’ve said before that my brother will never lose on this track, even if his opponent is the Wild Car God!"

Zuo Yingying shook her head with a smile: "I won’t bet."

Xu Meiling was taken aback: "Do you also think that my brother is better than Sun Lei?"

Zuo Yingying laughed softly, her gaze slightly meaningful: "I don’t think your brother is better than Sun Lei. I don’t know if he will win, but he will definitely not lose."

Xu Meiling widened her eyes: "What do you mean?"

Zuo Yingying said with a smile: "I mean it literally."

Xu Meiling snorted: "In that case, there is no bet."

After Xu Meiling left, Lin Chen said with a laugh: "Are you so sure?"

Zuo Yingying nodded: "If you have money and want to make some pocket money, you can bet on Xu Bin winning, if you lose, I will pay you."

Lin Chen teased: "Accompany, or compensate?"

Zuo Yingying gave Lin Chen a look: "You dirty rascal, now you know I’m flirting with you? Do you want me to accompany you, or to compensate you?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "You, a young lady, have so many handsome young men around you, but you have to hang out with me, a security guard. Aren’t you afraid of lowering your standard?"

Zuo Yingying snorted: "I like it, none of your business!"

Lin Chen got to the point: "Not betting... How do you know Xu Bin will definitely win?"

Zuo Yingying lowered her voice: "I just made a phone call with my brother. He mentioned this business deal. Lu Feng couldn’t compete with Xu Bin from the start, and Xu Family’s power is beyond Lu Feng’s reach. Xu Bin has a secure winning position, but he still stages this car race. It’s totally overdoing it. So there must be something fishy about this race."

Lin Chen suddenly realized: "Ah, inside information. No wonder."

Zuo Yingying nodded: "Most of the gambling activities provided to the public in the world are basically manipulated internally, such as soccer, horse racing, car racing, etc. There are internal communications, and who loses and who wins is already decided internally. Usually, both the winner and the loser will get their own benefits."

Lin Chen thought about it: "You said that Lu Feng couldn’t compete with Xu Bin from the start, but staged such a car race, and even invited Sun Lei over. And Xu Bin even agreed, which means Xu Bin would definitely win. So, by inference, was this race a play staged by both Xu Bin and Lu Feng?"

Zuo Yingying smiled lightly: "It should be. They must have agreed privately. Lu Feng gives up the project, and even stages this play to build up Xu Bin’s reputation. Xu Bin must have promised other compensation to Lu Feng. So this car race, though it’s exciting, its result has already been predetermined."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "If you didn’t know this information, wouldn’t you have been tricked by Xu Meiling?"

Zuo Yingying said with a smile: "Xu Meiling may not know the truth. She might just blindly have faith in her brother. If it was a fair bet, considering the reputation of the Car God, I might have placed a bet with her. But since it’s a performance, there’s no need for me to lose and be slapped in the face."

Lin Chen looked around and saw a crowd around the betting area. He laughed uncontrollably: "Who would you guess most people are betting on?"

Zuo Yingying replied: "Naturally most are betting on Sun Lei. The Wild Car God’s reputation is too big. Besides, because of the odds, betting on Xu Bin means a 30% profit if he wins, so it’s not a big win nor a big profit. Sun Lei, on the other hand, has a great chance to win and make a huge profit. As long as their heads are in the right place, they will all bet on Sun Lei."

Lin Chen curiously asked: "How many bets do you think there will be this round?"

Zuo Yingying replied: "At least several tens of millions, with good luck, possibly 100 million. After all, this bet has been hyped up for many days. People who should know, already do. Those who like gambling will definitely not miss this opportunity. Ordinary people might bet three or five thousand, but the bosses bet five to ten million, and the accumulation is not small."

Lin Chen laughed: "It’s way too easy to make this money, winning both fame and fortune."

Twenty minutes later, the thrilling race began.

All the spectators were filled with nervous anticipation, but Zuo Yingying and Lin Chen, who knew the truth behind the race, appeared relaxed and not nervous at all since the result was already predetermined.

This race was indeed a contest between masters, full of high excitement. Lin Chen couldn’t help but admire that these two people were real masters in the world of racing.

Lin Chen pondered, even if he stepped in, he might not necessarily win against them on a familiar track.

Xu Bin won.

With a lead of more than half a car length, he crossed the finish line first and won the race.

Lin Chen turned his head and said with a smile: "As expected, it was an exciting race. The throwing of the race was done so well that no one could tell..."
