The Strongest Urban Son-in-law-Chapter 24 - 22: Astonishing Bet

"Fine, it’s a deal, three billion it is!" Zhang Xin anxiously spoke, fearing that Ye Feng might change his mind.

Lin Shiyu was incredibly anxious and tried to persuade Ye Feng, "Ye Feng, you must stay calm. Don’t listen to my mom. Just think of her as crazy. Three billion is not a small amount!"

Lin Shiyu knew that three billion for any of the top four elite families in Lin Tian City would be an amount significant enough to cripple them.

Ye Feng nodded indifferently, "Indeed, it is improper."

Seeing that Ye Feng seemed to be taking her advice, Lin Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"How can that be acceptable? A deal’s a deal; casino rules. We’ve already placed the bet; how can you back out and take the money?" Zhang Xin’s face instantly darkened.

Sun Zhong also looked down on Ye Feng with disdain, "Ye Feng, my young friend, that’s not reasonable!"

But Ye Feng shook his head, "I am well aware of the rules. I didn’t say I wouldn’t gamble, I want to raise the stakes. Is that not permitted?"

"Raise the stakes?" Everyone was stunned for a moment, then Zhang Xin became excited, "Yes, of course, that’s allowed. How much do you want to add?"

Ye Feng asked, "How much is this casino worth?"

Zhang Xin laughed, "Our casino is the largest in Linnan Province, worth at least sixty billion."

"Fine! Then sixty billion it is. If I lose, sixty billion to you, and if you lose, the casino goes to me. How’s that?" Ye Feng spoke calmly.

"Agreed, it’s a deal!" Zhang Xin and Liu Guixiang almost jumped up in excitement, unable to contain the excitement in their hearts.

"Ye Feng, did you completely ignore what I just said to you? If they dare to play this game with you, then they are confident of winning. Why are you wagering so much? If you lose, can you face the Lin Family, can you face my grandfather?"

Lin Shiyu was extremely angry, shouting at Ye Feng.

Lin Shiyu believed that the black card was given to Ye Feng by her grandfather, and now Ye Feng was gambling with the Lin Family’s money.

If the sixty billion were lost, the Lin Family would be crippled and undoubtedly fall to a second-rate status.

Shiyu was seething with anger at Ye Feng’s actions.

"I have my own measures..." Ye Feng replied lightly, too lazy to explain. It was his own money on the line, what did it have to do with the Lin Family?

Lin Shiyu’s eyes were red hot with anger as she yelled at Ye Feng, "Measures! What measures do you have? Ye Feng, after all my grandfather has done for you, you’re just not worth..."

"Shut up!" Ye Feng frowned.

At that instant, a terrifying aura bore down upon her.

Lin Shiyu was instantly stunned, silenced by Ye Feng’s intimidation, her mouth shut tight, but inside, she couldn’t help but curse Ye Feng continuously.

"Fine! If you’re seeking your own death, I won’t interfere anymore. Later on, I’ll see how you explain yourself to my grandfather!" Then, Lin Shiyu stood aside with her arms crossed, no longer looking at Ye Feng.

And Liu Guixiang was almost driven mad with excitement – sixty billion! Thirty percent of that would be a whole eighteen billion.

With eighteen billion of her own, what would she care about Lin Zhen? If Lin Zhen tried to kick Liu Guixiang out of the house, she wouldn’t stay for a moment!

"Mr. Ye, given the enormous amount, we need witnesses and to sign a contract. You don’t have any objections, right?" asked Zhang Xin.

"None..." Ye Feng shook his head.

Witnesses present and a contract in place was perfect: then Zhang Xin could not possibly dispute the debt.

After Ye Feng had signed the contract, a burly, vigorous middle-aged man soon entered the room.

"Mr. Zheng, thank you for your help today!" Seeing the man, Zhang Xin greeted him enthusiastically.

Upon seeing this person, Ye Feng couldn’t help but smile. He was none other than the CEO of the Lin Tian Security Group, Zheng Yonggang, a former team member of Ye Feng.

As soon as Zheng Yonggang entered, he saw Ye Feng and completely ignored Zhang Xin, leaving Zhang Xin somewhat embarrassed.

Zheng Yonggang excitedly ran up to Ye Feng and bowed slightly, "Tea... Mr. Ye, what brings you here?"

Zheng Yonggang initially wanted to address Ye Feng as team captain, but sensing that Ye Feng did not wish to be referred to in that manner, he quickly corrected himself.

Ye Feng nodded slightly, smiling with satisfaction, "I’m here to place a bet with them."

Everyone was surprised; they didn’t expect Ye Feng and Zheng Yonggang to know each other, and for Zheng Yonggang to be so respectful in front of Ye Feng.

"I thought to myself, who would dare to make such a large bet? It turns out to be Mr. Ye, so that’s no surprise!" said Zheng Yonggang.

However, Lin Shiyu felt increasingly annoyed, feeling that Ye Feng was using the Lin Family’s money, and yet Zheng Yonggang spoke so highly of him.

Sun Zhong and Zhang Xin could no longer manage why Ye Feng knew Zheng Yonggang, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Ye, now that our witness is here, shall we begin?"

"Hmm..." Ye Feng nodded, then took the lighter handed to him by Sun Zhong.

Sun Zhong asked, "Mr. Ye, who should go first?"

"As you wish..." Ye Feng answered sparingly, still with a brief reply.

"You are the guest, so you should go first," Sun Zhong confidently suggested to Ye Feng.

"Okay!" Ye Feng didn’t waste words. He took the lighter in his hand and lit the tissue over the cup.

In no time, a small flame appeared on the tissue, creating a hole as it burned.

The hole quickly widened as the tissue rapidly caught fire, but Ye Feng was not the slightest bit anxious.

Soon, the tissue had burned mostly away, revealing a large hole. Looking at the situation, the dice on top of the tissue could fall into the cup at any moment.

Lin Shiyu, seeing this, became extremely anxious and couldn’t help shouting, "Be careful!"

"Whew~~" Ye Feng blew gently, and the flame went out instantly; the edges of the dice had lost the support of the tissue and could fall into the cup at any moment.

Lin Shiyu sighed with relief, feeling as if she had escaped from a crisis and finally relaxed for a moment.

"It’s your turn!" Ye Feng said calmly.

Sun Zhong, full of confidence and not the least bit nervous, picked up the lighter and lit the tissue.

"Gulp~~" Watching Sun Zhong’s move, bystanders like Zhang Xin and Zheng Yonggang couldn’t help but swallow.

"Phew!"

After only igniting a few sesame-seed-sized spots on the tissue, Sun Zhong immediately blew out the flame.

The dice looked as if they could fall into the cup at any moment, but Sun Zhong succeeded!

"Thanks for the leeway!" Sun Zhong smiled slightly, looking at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng wasted no more words and directly lit another side, swiftly blowing out the flame just as it rose, successfully passing the challenge. Following that, Ye Feng picked up a glass of water and took a sip.

Then it was Sun Zhong’s turn again.
