Chapter 292: The Bet

On their way back, Jia Qianqian looked at Lin Yang and asked.

"Mr. Lin, when will you handle the feng shui matter at my home?"

Lin Yang thought for a moment and said.

"Go prepare a few things, then find some construction workers."

"To change the feng shui layout, you must completely change the interior layout of your home."

"Then prepare six jade pendants; once ready, I can change the feng shui for your home."

Jia Qianqian wrote down everything Lin Yang said.

As they spoke, they returned home.

As soon as they got home, Jia Qianqian went to Jia Xiangyang's room to report what had happened at the company.

At that moment, Wu Shiya, sitting in the living room, looked at Lin Yang, hesitated for a while, and said.

"Lin Yang, are you free tonight? Can you accompany me to a banquet?"

"No."

Hearing Lin Yang's firm refusal, Wu Shiya put on a pitiful appearance.

Her eyes glistened with tears.

"Lin Yang, just agree to it."

"If you... if you go with me, I can give you money."

"Give money?"

Lin Yang also laughed, asking teasingly.

"How much can you give? If it's too little, I won't go."

Upon hearing that, Wu Shiya's eyes lit up and she said.

"I'll give you 100,000!"

"100,000?"

Lin Yang looked at Wu Shiya with some surprise.

"You're a student; how can you come up with that much money?"

"It's all my savings; is that enough?"

"If it weren't for wanting to use you as a shield, feeling guilty, I wouldn't give you this much."

After saying that, she immediately covered her mouth, looking at Lin Yang with a pleading expression.

"Please, please."

Lin Yang chuckled and said to Wu Shiya.

"Tell me, what kind of banquet is it?"

"It's just a charity banquet; all the big families will be there, including the people I dislike!"

Upon hearing that, Lin Yang pondered for a moment.

"In that case, the Ke Clan and the Chen Clan will also be attending."

"Alright, I'll take your 100,000."

Upon hearing that, Wu Shiya's face lit up with an excited smile.

"Great!"

As night fell, outside the Zijin Grand Hotel, luxury cars gathered.

The taxi that Lin Yang and Wu Shiya were in stood out conspicuously.

Wu Shiya, stepping out of the car, glanced at Lin Yang with some resentment.

"I told you earlier to rent a car; look, we've become the center of attention now."

"Everyone has gone inside; no one is paying attention to us."

Upon hearing that, Wu Shiya still kept her head down and walked to the hotel entrance.

"Miss, please show your invitation."

Wu Shiya took out her phone and opened the electronic invitation.

"This person beside me is my male companion; may we go in now?"

Hearing that, the guard gave them a strange look.

"These days, are rich people all so eccentric, even brawling at charity events?"

"The world of the wealthy—I really don't understand it."

"Both of you, please go in."

Just as the two entered, the hall already had many people.

Everyone held glasses of red wine, started mingling everywhere, trying to broaden their networks.

"Shiya, I've been looking for you for ages; why did you only just arrive?"

Chen Run, wearing a black suit, came running back with a smile.

When he arrived beside Wu Shiya, he then noticed Lin Yang.

"What are you doing here?"

Chen Run was startled and took two steps back.

Wu Shiya frowned and said.

"How can he not be here? He's my male companion tonight."

Upon hearing that, Chen Run's face kept changing, then he said.

"Shiya, this bastard kid looks like a total pretty boy at first glance!"

You must absolutely not be deceived by his honeyed words!

I'm willing; you want to be a pretty boy, but nobody wants you.

Chen Run, who was being fiercely rebuked, almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

What do you mean, acting like a pretty boy when nobody wants you!

He angrily stared at Lin Yang, wanting to vent his anger on him.

Kid, the matter of you hitting me at the airport won't just be let go like that!

The banquet is over tonight; don't leave.

You want to take revenge?

Lin Yang looked at him and asked.

What, are you scared?

Lin Yang shook his head and said.

It's not that I'm scared; I'm saying, if you want revenge, do it now.

I'll let you make the first move.

Chen Run froze, looking at Lin Yang, and shouted loudly, appearing fierce but actually weak inside.

Now it's a charity banquet; I don't want to fight here, so let you show off for a moment.

Seeing Lin Yang look at him with disdain, Chen Run's face flushed red with anger.

Shiya, I've finally found you.

Yesterday I went to the airport to pick you up but didn't see you; I went to your home and couldn't find you either; you wouldn't be deliberately avoiding me, would you?

A handsome man in a silver suit, with a high nose bridge, walked over wearing a spring-breeze-like smile.

Seeing the arrival, Chen Run's expression slightly changed.

Wu Shiya saw the person and immediately linked arms with Lin Yang.

It's Feng Big Brother; I went out shopping with Lin Yang yesterday, I wasn't deliberately avoiding you.

Feng Tang, who originally had a smile, his face turned grim.

Soon, he returned to normal.

He chuckled as he walked up to Lin Yang and extended his hand.

My name is Feng Tang, of the Jinling Feng family; this friend looks rather unfamiliar.

Lin Yang chuckled and said.

My name is Lin Yang; I come from the southwest, so naturally you find me unfamiliar.

From the southwest?

A hint of disdain appeared in Feng Tang's eyes.

Since you've come, you're a friend.

Saying that, he extended his hand toward Lin Yang, making a gesture to shake hands.

Lin Yang smiled and also extended his hand.

The two clasped hands; Feng Tang immediately sank his qi to his dantian, gradually increasing the force of his grip!

But no matter how hard he tried, Lin Yang's expression didn't change.

Until his forehead veins bulged and his face flushed red, Lin Yang still had no reaction.

This friend, it's just a handshake; why is your face red?

Feng Tang, hearing that, wanted to pull his hand back.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull it free.

Let go of me, I'm telling you to let go of me!

Lin Yang smiled and released his hand.

Feng Tang, having overexerted himself, staggered backward repeatedly, tripped and fell sitting on the ground.

This drew a lot of attention.

Young Master Feng, why are you sitting on the ground?

Feng Tang, with a solemn face, stood up.

He walked up to Lin Yang and said with a grim face.

Kid, I didn't expect it, but you're still a martial artist!

However, if I wanted to deal with you, it would still be very simple.

You know what 'money can make ghosts push a mill' means?

Facing Feng Tang's threat, Lin Yang chuckled and said.

I also think money can make ghosts push a mill, but I think I'm richer than you.

Richer than me?

Feng Tang glanced at Lin Yang and sneered.

From a small place, indeed you haven't seen much of the world.

In Jinling, those richer than my family can be counted on two hands!

Lin Yang laughed and shook his head, saying.

That's your family, not you.

Hmph, even so, the money on me is not something you can compare to!

Having said that, he shifted his gaze and said to Lin Yang.

Then let's compare our wealth!

"If you lose, get out of Jinling now!"

Lin Yang asked, intrigued.

"And what if you lose?"

I lose?

Feng Tang laughed triumphantly.
