I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1296: You Don’t Intend to Use Her as Collateral, Do You?
Chapter 1296: Chapter 1296: You Don’t Intend to Use Her as Collateral, Do You?
Number 20 snapped his fingers, and a waiter immediately approached with a tray.
Number 20 handed you a stack of chips, smiling, "Here you have a hundred thousand Galaxy coins. We’ve already deducted it from your bank Crystal Card."
You nodded, then carefully blended yourself into the surrounding atmosphere. Half an hour later, you and Number 20 arrived at the sixth floor.
"Inside, many are underworld figures, so you must not get into conflicts with them."
You nodded after hearing this and stepped inside with a net worth of over five million Galaxia coins. In the past half hour, you had already earned more than three hundred Galaxia coins and had visited several venues, playing with all sorts of tricks.
To this, Number 20 showed no attitude, still following behind you with a friendly smile on his face.
Following Number 20’s guidance, you sat in an empty spot. Just as you sat down, a short fat man across from you spoke, "Kid, what are you here for?"
The short fat man had a teasing look on his face.
"Sorry, according to the new law of the Milky Way Galaxy, I’m already an adult." You also wore a smile.
"Oh, oh, so you’re an adult now, quite the big person indeed." The Fatty said, and several of his henchmen in black clothes and pants burst into laughter.
"Nowhere near as big as you, sir."
"Hmph!" The Fatty snorted coldly and said to you, "Kid, do you know who I am?"
"I have yet to be informed." You clasped your hands in respect.
At this time, one of Fatty’s henchmen spoke up, "Who doesn’t know our boss’s name? He’s the richest Hong Ye in Asia University!"
You pretended to ponder, and just as his henchman served him a cup of tea, you suddenly said "Oh" and smiled, "Still haven’t heard of it."
"Pfft!"
The tea in Fatty’s mouth sprayed all over the henchman who had served him, and furious, he set down his cup with a thud and yelled at you, "Kid, I was saying those words for your own good. Don’t think I’m easy to bully. If you lose all your money, don’t come borrowing from me. I’m telling you, I lend money at high interest rates!"
You laughed, "Hong Ye, don’t get angry. I’m not deliberately offending; I’m just itching to play a few rounds. Anyway, it’s just a bit of money. If I lose, consider it filial respect to you. If luck is on my side and I win, consider it a gift from your elder to me, the junior."
"Good, I like what you said. Rest assured, if you win, I, Hong Tian, will never take underhanded action against you. I swear by the heavens, what Hong Tian says, he does. Though I’m mixed in the Jianghu society, I still know the weight of morality."
"Thank you, Hong Ye."
Hong Tian waved his hand, laughing, "Cut the nonsense, let’s start."
"Alright."
"Kid, you’re from Asia, right?"
"Yes."
"Know how to play the mahjong we Huaxia people created?"
"A little."
"Good, as long as you don’t forget your roots. Come on, let’s play some rounds of mahjong!"
After a few rounds, Hong Tian’s face was flushed not from anger, but from embarrassment as he watched a kid a generation younger completely overtake him without any resistance. Hong Tian felt utterly disgraced.
In the end, he even lost all the over eight million Galaxia coins he brought, and now owed you tens of thousands.
"Hong Ye, shall we go another round?" You asked with a smile.
"Go! How could I not!" Hong Tian shouted.
"But you’re out of money."
"No money? I still have this!" Hong Tian took out a contract-like item locked by an electronic lock from his pocket and told one of his henchmen, "Go, bring Ding Xiang to me!"
"But, boss she’s not..."
"Stop wasting words, I told you to go, so go!"
"Hong Ye, don’t be angry. Victory or defeat is common in battles."
"Hmph, I was just letting you win earlier, but not anymore!"
Soon, the henchman brought a woman dressed in Suyi clothes to Hong Tian’s side, "Hong Ye, Ding Xiang is here."
Ding Xiang?
As the woman approached, you indeed caught a faint scent of cloves. Looking up at her, your head immediately swelled as this person wasn’t anyone else but the beauty who toyed with you in the game!
No, or rather this woman looked remarkably like that beauty, and she also had the familiar scent of cloves.
"Kid, she’s beautiful, right? Look at you, a kid who’s never seen a beauty, all lovestruck." Hong Tian laughed heartily.
"Hong Ye, you’re not thinking of using her as collateral, are you?"
"Why not? She’s already a slave. According to the Alliance’s laws, as long as it’s legitimate... Bah, what Alliance law? In this place, there’s no such thing. Since she’s a slave, she can be bought or sold. Her value is three million Galaxy coins. Kid, dare you bet?"
"I’m afraid I might suffer a loss." You said with a smile.
"Suffer what loss? I just had her captured yesterday, haven’t even touched her. If you beat me, Hong Ye, she’s yours." Saying this, Hong Tian pushed the slave contract to the center of the table.
You thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I’ll play with you!"
"Shuffle the tiles!" both of you called out simultaneously.
But after three rounds, your chips diminished, while Hong Tian’s smile grew wider, the piles of fat on his face resembling a woman’s oversized rear. Almost winning back the money he lost, Hong Tian slapped the table and laughed loudly, "Little brat, you finally see how formidable I, Hong Ye, am. I think you should stop playing. The money Hong Ye just gave you can be seen as a meeting gift. Go home and have a drink of milk from your mother."
"Hong Ye, we haven’t lost yet, let’s go another round. Are you perhaps afraid?"
"Afraid? That’s a word Hong Ye doesn’t know how to write!"
Another five rounds passed, and finally, you looked at Hong Tian with a smile, whose face was now red not from embarrassment but from urgency, knowing this time returning home he was going to have it tough. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Not only did he lose his principal, but he also owed you over a hundred thousand, although that amount was just a tiny fraction of his total wealth. However, his household financial management wasn’t under his control, but rather his tigress wife!
"Hong Ye, shall we continue?"
"Go, continue with what!" Hong Tian grumbled in his mind, "Great, now I don’t even have the money to buy a diamond ring. Today is the wedding anniversary, too."
"Hong Ye, consider this a token of respect for you." You returned three million to Hong Tian, "Now it’s getting late. You’d better buy some gifts for your Honorable Lady to avoid her nagging you again."
