Chapter 236: Chapter 256: Are You Pretending Not to Know? _1

Thinking of this, Xu Meiling felt a little displeased in her heart, a displeasure that came from being compared.

Her and Zuo Yingying’s statuses and beauty were comparable; they were always at odds, competing in everything. Since she brought Lu Yan and Zuo Yingying brought Lin Chen, there was a natural inclination for comparison.

Lin Chen behaved neither humble nor aggressive in front of Zuo Yingying, had excellent skills, and even Song He couldn’t compete with him. At first glance, he seemed like nothing special, but once you interacted with him, you would unknowingly be attracted by his temperament.

Confident, gentle, neither humble nor aggressive, his face always showed calmness and confidence, making him seem like a magnet. As long as you approached him, you would be unconsciously drawn to him.

Did Zuo Yingying feel the same way?

The Zuo Yingying that Xu Meiling knew wouldn’t slap a man on the back and say such intimate words like "fa your waist", yet it was happening right in front of her.

Xu Meiling felt resentful in her heart, hoping that Lu Yan would win against Lin Chen. This way, she could get rid of this feeling and think that he was just as ordinary, and also suppress Zuo Yingying for once.

"Lin Chen, let me remind you, in underground racing, you must bear the consequences and take responsibility for your life and death. You understand, right?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Alright, let’s begin."

Xu Meiling smiled, "Wait, everyone who races on this track has to join the betting plate so that everyone can bet. It’s the rule, whether people bet on you or not."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Is that so? Fine, I’m just a nobody, let’s see what odds you set for me."

Xu Meiling called someone over, and the image on the big screen suddenly changed, still split into left and right halves.

Lin Chen originally thought it would simply show his and Lu Yan’s information, but when he looked up, he couldn’t help but laugh.

"You all have such a business mindset, can’t help but make money, can you?"

On the big screen, the left side showed a photo of Xu Meiling and the right side showed a photo of Zuo Yingying. The photos were captivating, with both of them looking gorgeous.

Next to the two people’s portraits, there was a small half-formed figure on each side. On the left was Lu Yan and the unknown figure on the left was in black with a big question mark next to it.

The odds were displayed below, with Xu Meiling’s side at 1:1.3 and Zuo Yingying’s side at 1:2.

The banker obviously had more faith in Lu Yan, as he was a well-known racer, while Lin Chen had only come here for the first time and had never even raced on this track before. No one would believe that Lin Chen could win.

This wasn’t just a competition between Lin Chen and Lu Yan, it was clearly a competition between beautiful women!

Everyone seemed to be used to this situation, with two beautiful women each finding a racer to compete in one race, just to see who everyone believed would win.

As the owner of the racing track, the Xu family had an inherent popularity and Lu Yan was also a well-known expert locally. For a moment, many people went to place bets, mostly betting on Lu Yan.

Lin Chen rubbed his nose, "Since I will be racing, can I bet on myself?"

Xu Meiling said with a smile, "Of course, the contestants can bet on themselves to win. Of course, they can only bet on themselves to win. After all, winning isn’t easy and losing is easy. Contestants have to be responsible for the people who bet on them."

Zuo Yingying smiled, "Are you going to bet?"

Lin Chen casually took out his wallet, pulled out a card, and handed it to Zuo Yingying, "I don’t bet on others, but betting on myself is fine. I need to grasp my own destiny. The password is six eights. Bet all the money in it on me to win."

Zuo Yingying handed the card to someone next to Xu Meiling to place the bet and asked, "How much money is in it?"

Lin Chen shook his head, "I don’t know."

Zuo Yingying was stunned, "You don’t know how much money is in your own card? You must have some idea, right?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Someone else gave it to me. I don’t know how much money is in it. I haven’t used it."

The card was given to Lin Chen by Leng Ying as a thank you gift for Zhang Xuan, but Lin Chen hadn’t used it and didn’t even know how much money was in it.

The person handling the procedure came back quickly, handed a betting voucher to Xu Meiling with a slightly subtle expression on their face.

Xu Meiling glanced at it, and her eyes suddenly widened. When she looked at Lin Chen again, her gaze also became a bit more subtle.

"Lin Chen, you really are good at hiding your true capabilities. You casually took out a card with 10 million in it. I’m really curious about who would give you a card with 10 million and you didn’t even know the amount..."

Zuo Yingying took the voucher from Xu Meiling’s hand, looked at it, and smiled charmingly, "Who would have thought, you, a little security guard, are a rich man."

Zuo Yingying knew about his relationship with Chu Jiaxue and subconsciously thought the card was given to him by Chu Jiaxue. Lin Chen was a man with dignity, so he never used the money in the card and didn’t even know the amount.

Seeing Zuo Yingying’s expression, Lin Chen knew she had gotten the wrong idea. Since Xu Meiling was also asking him, he casually explained, "It was given to me by Leng Ying."

Zuo Yingying and Xu Meiling both looked at Lin Chen in surprise at the same time.

"Leng Ying?"

"That Leng Ying from the Leng family?"
