Capítulo 1619: Chapter 1572: Such Intimacy (3)

Chen Yong was just thinking about how to greet Song Xiaodong, when Yang Yushi’s words suddenly woke him up. It was clear that Song Xiaodong didn’t want to reveal his identity.

“Ha…” Chen Yong first let out an awkward laugh, then immediately picked up a glass of wine, saying, “I’ll down this, you guys take your time.” With that, he drank the wine in one gulp, gestured with his glass, and turned to leave.

“Young Master Chen, what’s going on…” The few people who followed wanted to take the opportunity to talk with Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling, but with Chen Yong leaving like that, they couldn’t stay there either. They caught up a few steps and immediately asked in confusion.

Chen Yong’s face was particularly unpleasant at this time. He said nothing and went directly back to his seat. The last person he wanted to see was Song Xiaodong, but he saw him anyway. His mood, which had just recovered, sank again instantly.

Yao Mengfei, being impatient, said, “Young Master Chen, that guy is sitting between Chu Xianling and Yang Yushi, why don’t you teach him a lesson?”

Chen Yong was even more annoyed. To provoke Song Xiaodong was simply courting death. Last time, his True Qi was disabled. If he caused trouble again, there’s no telling what might happen to him.

But since Yang Yushi had made it clear, Song Xiaodong didn’t want to be exposed. He didn’t dare to reveal Song Xiaodong’s identity either, so he snorted and said, “A bet is a bet, accept your losses. I advise you to pay up if you lost.”

“What?” Lin Bing and the other two widened their eyes immediately.

Chen Yong said irritably, “I’m kindly reminding you, if you don’t want to pay, that’s your business. I just don’t want to get involved with it.”

Seeing Chen Yong clearly not wanting to handle this matter, Lin Bing and the other two looked at each other awkwardly. This was over a hundred million; even they couldn’t just pay off a gambling debt like that. It would surely get them scolded by their families.

But they weren’t fools. Chen Yong’s words made them realize one thing: Chen Yong might not be unwilling but unable to intervene.

“Damn, could that guy have some background?” As they walked to their seats, Yao Mengfei whispered.

Lin Bing hesitated for a moment and said, “It really doesn’t seem simple. Otherwise, Chen Yong should have chatted more with Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling, instead of leaving so hurriedly. Clearly, he too didn’t want to see that person, the one sitting between Chu Xianling and Yang Yushi.”

Wu Jiang came to his senses too and said softly, “With Chu Xianling and Yang Yushi’s status, how could they sit beside a man like they’re accompanying him? It’s very unreasonable; that person must be extraordinary.”

The three returned to their seats anxiously, ears stretched, listening to the conversation between Song Xiaodong, Yang Yushi, and Chu Xianling.

Although what Yang Yushi and the others said was not significant, it was clear when talking with Song Xiaodong, they were very casual, showing no pride or reserve at all.

These young masters usually mingled in high society circles; they were sharp to these cues. If they couldn’t see the issue now, they’d be completely naive.

“What should we do?” Yao Mengfei looked at Lin Bing, looking frustrated.

Lin Bing grimaced a bit and said, “I can’t come up with that much money all at once; I’ll definitely have to tell my family.” He had lost the most, over fifty million.

But these words undoubtedly meant that they dared not refuse to pay the debt.

Wu Jiang and Yao Mengfei’s family backgrounds weren’t as strong as Lin Bing’s. Although they only lost over thirty million each, that was still not an amount they could bear alone.

Lin Bing hesitated and said, “I’ll call home first. Getting scolded is better than causing big trouble for the family.”

Wu Jiang and Yao Mengfei nodded repeatedly, letting Lin Bing test the waters with his family about who that guy was.

Having eavesdropped all this time, they now knew Song Xiaodong’s name. Lin Bing slipped to the side to call his father.

Lin Bing cautiously asked, “Dad, do you know someone named Song Xiaodong?”

“Song Xiaodong…the name sounds a bit familiar. What kind of person is he?”

“A young man in his mid-twenties, mainly because he seems to know Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling well; they’re sitting on either side of him like they’re accompanying him.”

“Song Xiaodong…oh my God! Isn’t that the current head of the Su Family of Minghe making waves lately?”

“What? It’s him!” Lin Bing exclaimed, even if he hadn’t remembered Song Xiaodong’s name before, he’d heard from his family how powerful the Su Family of Minghe had become.

“What’s going on, why are you asking about him? You didn’t have a conflict with him, did you?” Lin Bing’s father raised his voice several notches.

“No, no, I just played cards with him and lost…over fifty million. I didn’t know who he was and thought about not paying, but now…”

“You fool, besides losing money, did you offend him in any other way?”

“I…I might have said a few harsh words, but I didn’t know he was Song Xiaodong.”

“I’ll immediately wire you the money, you pay it right away and then go apologize. You must secure his forgiveness. For someone like him, not just you, even I can’t afford to offend him. Haven’t you heard how he disabled Chen Yong’s Kung Fu recently and the Chen Family could do nothing about it?”

After hanging up, in less than two minutes, Lin Bing’s account received fifty million. Asking for money from home had never been easier.
