During this time,

he had taken advantage of Haruno more than once, and Haruno would glare at him with a shy, coquettish roll of her eyes.

"Beauty, next up is our delightful spring night time."

Holding Haruno, Lin Ye arrived at the guest room, but by this time, that blonde beauty was nowhere to be seen.

"What the hell, where's that blonde woman!"

"Ran off?"

He immediately rushed outside the door, but could no longer see a trace of her.

"The thing I hate most is people who don't keep their word. Beauty, you aren't thinking of welching on the deal, are you!"

Haruno shook her head vigorously, "No, no, Miko will definitely keep her promise. Tonight, little brother, you can play however you like, play until you're happy, play until you're satisfied."

Lin Ye looked toward the direction of the hallway.

Through his X-ray vision, he could see that blonde woman was right there.

That blonde woman was highly likely an Eerie player as well, and her real-world identity probably wasn't simple either. It was just a pity that there were no relevant identification documents in the bag she carried; otherwise, he could have confirmed her specific identity in the real world.

"The chance of meeting again is very small."

Lin Ye was going to Japan, and that woman was European/American; the two were simply not in the same place, and there was almost no possibility of their paths crossing, unless they met in an Eerie game.

But who knew when that would be.

Seeing that the blonde woman hadn't left yet and looked focused, he thought of something and made a gesture toward Haruno.

Haruno was startled; although she blushed, she agreed and began to cooperate, "Mm-mm, ah-ah..."

A certain sound echoed in the room.

After a good while,

noticing that the blonde woman had gone downstairs and left the hotel building, Lin Ye finally let Haruno stop.

"Gone?"

Haruno was very clever and clearly sensed that Lin Ye had noticed something.

"Mm."

Although he didn't know what the skills of that woman, who was suspected to be an Eerie player, were, generally speaking, skills used in Eerie games had a duration and a time limit.

The blonde woman's departure also meant that she had already given up on further confirming his identity.

"What is that woman's identity?"

Haruno realized that the woman's identity wasn't simple either.

She had thought she was just a woman who loved money, but it seemed her identity was unusual.

"Suspected Eerie player, but I can't be sure."

"As expected of Lin-kun, even an Eerie player gets taken advantage of by you. Wuwuwu, I'm getting old and losing my looks, and my figure isn't even as good as that blonde woman's; I'm going to be ruthlessly abandoned, wuwuwu."

At this moment, Haruno was sobbing, and as she wore a bathrobe, a patch of snow-white skin was exposed to the air.

Lin Ye remained unmoved; he was already used to Haruno's performative behavior. Ignoring her was the best way to treat it.

And when Haruno saw that Lin Ye had no reaction at all, she returned to her normal posture, as if nothing had happened just now.

"Sixty-nine million, converted to yen that's over 1.2 billion. This trip really was a bountiful harvest; Lin-kun is truly amazing."

She smiled and praised him.

Honestly, gambling for such stakes was a first in her life.

Recalling the heart-pounding moments at the casino, even knowing the outcome, Haruno still couldn't avoid the excitement and thrill in her heart.

"That's also because Miss Yukinoshita trusts me."

"Not at all, I'm just a foil. Without me, Lin-kun would still have earned this money easily."

With this kind of ability, making money couldn't be simpler.

Thinking back to how she had initially used 100 million yen to win Lin Ye over, Haruno only felt like a clown.

What was 100 million to Lin Ye? It was nothing.

"This method of making money, generally speaking, is enough once. At most, you change locations, but at least in Aocheng, it's impossible, and there's no need."

Having this starting capital was enough.

"Haha, after all, every casino has directly given you a tribute fee, Lin-kun, just hoping you'll let them off the hook."

Thinking of the scene where the managers at the entrances of the major casinos took the initiative to send money, Haruno couldn't stop smiling.

"It was just a wise choice. Although I really didn't intend to go 'slaughtering pigs,' I really just wanted to play a few rounds and experience the feeling of gambling."

Lin Ye shrugged and spread his hands.

With his X-ray and time-stop skills, winning was simple, but he had lost quite a bit of the fun. Later on, he really wanted to experience it purely, but as a result, the other casinos didn't want him to enter.

Since they had already stuffed money into his hands, Lin Ye naturally wouldn't force his way in.

There was no need for that.

"Hahahaha..."

Haruno's silver-bell-like laughter rang out continuously.

"If Lin-kun wants to experience the feeling of gambling, you can! I can accompany Lin-kun. We can play some exciting games, for example... if you lose, you take off your clothes? Very exciting, right! Little brother would definitely like it."

She placed one hand on her collar, her eyes filled with charm.

"Playing alone is boring."

Haruno:???

"Then I'll call Xiao Jing over."

"Pfft..."

Lin Ye almost spat out a mouthful of water.

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Xiao Xun is fine, Xiao Xun listens to me very well, I'll call her over."

"Your sister is not bad."

"..."

Can you not mention my sister?

Haruno felt stifled, but she couldn't say it directly; she knew that if she did, it would only provoke Lin Ye's defiance.

"I'll go back and see who I can find; we'll play a game of King's Game together, I guarantee Lin-kun will be thrilled."

This woman,

she really understands a man's heart.

Lin Ye suppressed the thoughts that had been stirred up.

And seeing Lin Ye's current appearance, Haruno smiled and spoke again,

"Lin-kun,"

she changed her posture, a smile appearing on her flushed cheeks,

"Having won so much money, shouldn't we celebrate?"

"Mm?"

"Play however you like!"

"Miss Yukinoshita, I don't touch my collaborators."

Lin Ye could guarantee that Haruno had thoughts of trying to use herself to bind him.

But was he someone who could be bound? It was simply impossible.

"Hey, hey, it's painful; clearly I also really want to taste the feeling of being played until broken by Lin-kun."

She stroked her red lips, her eyes releasing a dazed look.

Lin Ye ignored her; he sat on the sofa and thought about what this money could be used for.

Money begetting money was the key.

With Haruno in charge, arranging personnel to actually handle matters, he could hide behind the scenes and only need to provide the ideas.

And in this world, besides gambling, drugs, and prostitution, what other businesses were very profitable?

Reasonable, legal, and yet highly profitable,

Lin Ye began to think.

Now that he had money and people, many ideas could be attempted and implemented. ===== CHAPTER 258 =====
