Chapter 16

Do You Dare to Bet?

“Speaking of which, the Xu Family spent a lot of money on this wedding. Based on my understanding of them, they won’t let the Jiang Family off easily, let alone Third Miss Jiang.” Wang Jiangbei suddenly said.

The Jiang Family could barely be considered a high-class family in Ocean City. Their eldest son and second daughter were also famous in the business world and the entertainment industry. Only Third Miss Jiang had an extremely low presence. If not for this matter, many people would not have known that the Jiang Family had a third daughter.

Therefore, when Wang Jiangbei mentioned her, he didn’t even know her name. He only called her Third Miss Jiang.

Lin Feng nodded as well. “That’s right. Xu Yuning’s father is not an easy person to talk to. Including Xu Yuning, he’s not an easy person to deal with. How can he let it go after losing face in front of so many people? Moreover, the Xu Family is much more powerful than the Jiang Family. If not for the superstar Jiang Youtian, it would be difficult for the Jiang Family to even enter the upper-class circle. They definitely won’t be able to win against the Xu Family.”

There were many rich people in Ocean City, but there were only a few families with power and background. The Jiang Family could barely squeeze into the ordinary upper-class circle, so how could they have the ability to compete with the Xu Family?

Among the Jiang Family’s businesses, only two department stores were operating quite well. The other small businesses were not worth mentioning. Moreover, this was the era of e-commerce, and the physical industry was gradually declining. With such a disparity in family background, the third daughter of the Jiang Family would definitely make the Xu Family bear a grudge and deliberately take revenge after she rashly fled the marriage and embarrassed the Xu Family in public.

“Brother Xiao, what do you think?” Lin Feng was very curious about Lu Yunxiao’s opinion on this matter. After all, the big shot’s judgment was unquestionable.

“The Xu family doesn’t dare to pursue the matter anymore.”

“How can that be? Let’s not talk about the millions of yuan loss for now. They were slapped in the face in public. There’s no way they can let this matter go just like that.” Lin Feng shook his head. Now that the public opinion had fermented to this extent, the entire Ocean City knew that Third Miss Jiang had stood Xu Yuning up. He had lost all his face. He did not believe that the Xu Family could take this lying down.

As for why Lin Feng was so certain, it was because his family’s Old Master had fought with Xu Hao, who was also Xu Yuning’s father, in the business world. He was really a difficult opponent and not a pushover.

At this moment, Lu Yunxiao had already gotten up from the pool, revealing his strong muscles. The waiter beside him quickly handed him a towel and put it on him.

“Do you want to bet on something? Let’s bet that the Xu Family won’t do anything else,” Lu Yunxiao said calmly.

“Sure! Let’s bet on that new cruise ship you bought. Do you dare to bet? Give it to me if you lose.” Lin Feng had been thinking about that cruise ship for a long time and finally found an opportunity.

“I’ll be your witness.” Wang Jiangbei was smart enough to stay out of their fight.

“Jiangbei, why are you so cowardly? I admit that Brother Xiao has great foresight, but you have to believe me on this matter. The Xu family will definitely not let that young lady off easily. Hurry up and rip Brother Xiao off with me.” Lin Feng felt that he would win for sure. He had even thought of where to take that cruise ship to fish.

“Gambling is risky. I won’t get involved in your business.” Wang Jiangbei said faintly, “Don’t forget, what if you lose? What will you give him?”

“I definitely won’t lose. Our Old Master has fought with Xu Yuning’s father for many years. No one in this world knows their family better than me.” Lin Feng was confident.

“What if you really lose?”

At this moment, Lu Yunxiao had already put on his bathrobe. As he fastened his belt unhurriedly, he said casually, “If you lose, your Fugui will be my watchdog.”

Lin Feng gasped. “Are you crazy? That’s my father’s dear son. He hugs that little thing to sleep every day. Even his profile picture is it. Besides, what’s the use of a dog? Can’t I just give you two bodyguards?”

“So do you dare to bet?” Lu Yunxiao glanced at him calmly.

Lin Feng gritted his teeth. “Why wouldn’t I dare? I’ll bet! Anyway, I won’t lose!”

As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, the corners of Lu Yunxiao’s lips curled up.

“You’re young and frivolous. You know that there’s a tiger in the mountains, but you’re so bold.” Wang Jiangbei shook his head and sighed.

It was already six in the evening when Jiang Youyi and Zhong Xiaohui returned home after dinner. When Jiang Youyi entered, she only saw her parents sitting in the dining room eating dinner.

“You’re back? Sit here and eat,” Mrs. Jiang said.

“I’m not eating, Mom. I ate outside.” Jiang Youyi took the slippers from the servant. “Where’s Big Brother and Sister-in-law? Aren’t they at home?”

“They went to your sister-in-law’s parents’ house for dinner.”

“Oh, then you can eat with Dad. I’m going upstairs to rest.”
