Chapter 256: Chapter 276: Hmph, Trying to Trick Me? _1

19,500,000?

Bai Sheng and Chu Jiayi were both shocked.

Wasn’t he just a security guard?

He casually took out a card, and it had so much money on it, which he used as a bet just as casually?

A luxurious gamble of 20 million in one go?

Bai Sheng had initially looked down on Lin Chen, thinking that he was just a brainless brute. He, as a shopping mall elite, might not be able to win in a fight, but in life, who relies on fighting to get by, isn’t money what really matters?

But now, Lin Chen suddenly brought out 20 million to gamble, and Bai Sheng was completely baffled.

Although he ran a company and was quite wealthy, he could also get 20 million, but he wouldn’t be able to gamble so lavishly.

Is Lin Chen really that rich?

Is it true or fake?

Bai Sheng looked at Gu Yuexi next to him and found that she was also surprised, so he knew that this had nothing to do with her.

Thinking about it, although Gu Yuexi came from a rich family, where would she get 20 million for gambling?

That meant, if Lin Chen was telling the truth, the 20 million was all his, and Gu Yuexi didn’t know about it.

He subconsciously looked at Chu Jiayi but found her face full of confusion and shock as well.

She had just mocked Gu Yuexi for ending up dating a security guard and being unable to afford a bet of a million, only for this security guard to take out 20 million and slap her in the face.

Chu Jiayi’s face turned red immediately.

She had always been the one to mock others and slap others in the face; how dare anyone mock her or slap her face?

She was from the Linhai Chu Family after all!

Although her father was not the family head, he was still a core member, and his status in the Chu Family wasn’t low either. Consequently, she was also respected everywhere outside the family.

What’s more important is that she couldn’t afford the bet!

She couldn’t come up with 20 million!

Even though she was the only daughter in her family, had a lot of pocket money, and enjoyed a luxurious life, it was 20 million, not 2,000!

Lin Chen looked at Chu Jiayi’s blushing face and showed a surprised expression: "What’s wrong, Miss Chu, do you dare not accept the bet? As the Miss of the Chu Family, could it be that you can’t even come up with 20 million?"

Chu Jiayi’s face reddened, and Lin Chen had just returned her previous words twice as hard, which was like slapping her hard on the face.

Seeing Chu Jiayi’s expression, Bai Sheng knew that she couldn’t come up with 20 million, and Lin Chen had ’cornered’ her. He hurriedly stepped in: "We came out to have fun. A small gamble is enjoyable, but why go so big? There’s no need for that."

Lin Chen casually replied: "Yeah, a small gamble is enjoyable, right? 20 million isn’t much, just for fun."

Bai Sheng’s face stiffened.

million is still a small gamble?

Just for fun?

He didn’t know how to respond, he couldn’t just say outright that he couldn’t afford the bet, or if Lin Chen answered back by saying "you can’t even afford a 20 million bet, and you still look down on others and call them poor?", wouldn’t his face be swollen from the slaps he’d get?

Gu Yuexi had an excited look on her face and was full of pleasure.

Show off.

Let’s see you show off now!

Lin Chen has never let her down!

So handsome!

Lin Chen saw Bai Sheng stop talking, then turned to Chu Jiaying: "Miss Chu, if you think the bet is too big and can’t afford it, that’s fine. Just say you can’t and we won’t gamble."

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s last sentence, Chu Jiayi had a sudden thought: could it be that he was bluffing about having millions on his card?

He was sure she couldn’t come up with 20 million, so he deliberately said this number to deceive her, right?

How could a security guard possibly come up with 20 million?

And even use 20 million to bet on a game of bowling?

Impossible!

Definitely impossible!

Chu Jiayi realized this and was filled with anger.

How dare he try to trick me!

I almost fell for it!

Chu Jiayi sneered: "20 million, oh, sorry, 19,500,000, it sounds like a pretty convincing lie. I bet you don’t even have¥20,000 on this card, right? Trying to scare me? Alright, let’s check the bank balance on the phone, and as long as there is that much money, I will gamble with you!"

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "If I prove that I have that much money, you’ll gamble?"

Chu Jiayi nodded, as if it was only natural, "Of course, even in gambling, you need to verify the money, right? The reason why people don’t verify for small bets is that they are sure the other party can afford it, but for 20 million, a security guard like you, can I believe it? If you want to deceive me, at least give me a more believable number."

As Chu Jiayi said this, Bai Sheng blinked his eyes, as if he suddenly saw the light.

That’s right, how could a security guard come up with 20 million?

He was also deceived by this bluff unexpectedly.

Gu Yuexi also became a bit uneasy.

She knew Lin Chen was very capable, but could he really come up with 20 million?

Previously, when Lin Chen pretended to be her boyfriend, only a few tens of thousands were needed to settle the matter.

Lin Chen glanced at the three of them and said with a smile: "Alright, you want verification, let’s verify."

Lin Chen took out his mobile phone, dialed the bank’s phone number, entered the transaction password, checked his balance, and turned on the speaker.

"... The current balance is 19,500,000..."
