Chapter 1096: Chapter 1100: Who Is It? (Part 1)
To be honest, even Lin Xi couldn’t suppress the joy in his heart at the thought of more than a billion.
You have to know, his total assets right now were only a bit over a billion.
They’d just doubled in one shot, who wouldn’t be happy?
Of course, if your assets are only a few hundred or a few thousand, then doubling them is actually nothing special.
But this was several billion.
"I can finally recover some HP!" As he thought of how much money had been blown by Bai Bing before, he gradually understood a fact—that no matter how much he earned, it could all be spent in one go.
Not to mention, his daily expenses now were pretty high.
Just the giant bear’s meat every day cost at least tens of thousands.
Not to mention, the pocket money he gave Mengmeng—hundreds of thousands at a time.
Of course, there were a bunch of other expenses too, not small ones either, like when his other women needed money, there was no way he wouldn’t take care of it.
So he felt that money was still very useful.
Unlike other Innates, who already looked down on money.
If they were all alone without a powerful family backing them, let’s see if they’d still look down on money.
As for the idea that he might win and the yacht owner wouldn’t pay up?
To be honest, that wasn’t something he worried about at all.
Not give him his money?
Do they have a death wish?
Or do they want to pay an even bigger price!
What a joke, no one in this world had ever dared owe him something and not pay it back—that was straight-up courting death!
Even if he had sensed that three powerful Kings of Soldiers were coming from the front.
Sure, Kings of Soldiers were a huge deal to other people.
To him, what were they?
They weren’t much different from ants.
Even Early Innate Stage experts, he didn’t take them seriously anymore.
Only those above the Early Innate Stage were enough to make him pay attention.
It was just that this sudden "benefactor" from the yacht owner left him stunned for a moment.
He knew this guy? Or rather, this guy knew him?
Honestly, he really had no impression of him at all!
But judging from the man’s excited expression, he didn’t seem to be lying!
Plus, as far as outsiders could see right now, he had at most shown the strength of a mid-level King of Soldiers.
As for the other party seeing through his true level?
That was definitely impossible!
You had to know that even Innates couldn’t see his true strength!
Which meant he really was this guy’s benefactor?
But a favor is one thing, business is another!
Even if he was a benefactor, the money he’d won here couldn’t just be wiped off.
He immediately said, "Don’t think that just because you call me benefactor, I’m going to write off the money I won!"
Tong Zhan froze, then shook his head. "Benefactor, don’t misunderstand!"
"This more than a billion is the money you won, we will definitely give it to you!"
"Our casino’s reputation is something no other casino can compare to, any of our guests know that."
"Actually, if you ever lack money, just say the word to me!"
At the same time, he was smiling bitterly inside. The money this man won, he wouldn’t dare deny it!
No matter how much it was, he didn’t dare!
He knew very clearly how strong Lin Xi was—definitely above the Peak Soldier King level, and in terms of combat skills and methods, absolutely the strongest person he’d ever seen.
To offend him would be certain death.
Of course, more than a billion wasn’t a small amount to him either.
But giving Lin Xi a billion plus, he didn’t feel the slightest reluctance, he’d even be glad to give it away.
"Even if it were a few times more, I’d still be willing to give it to you!" he continued.
Lin Xi just shook his head. "I only want the part that I should take!"
Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia, seeing this scene, instantly relaxed from their tense state.
Judging from this, Lin Xi seemed to know the owner of this yacht quite well, and had even helped him before.
Which meant they weren’t in danger this time?
Should be!
Everyone else, however, was utterly shocked!
They had never imagined that the yacht owner would actually call this young man "benefactor."
What had this young man done for the yacht owner?
They knew very well that this yacht owner was an extremely mysterious figure, someone the major top families all valued and even feared.
And this young man was actually treated with such respect by the yacht owner?
Could he be an even more terrifying figure?
Especially the two top-level Kings of Soldiers who always followed behind Tong Zhan—they had never once seen their boss treat someone this respectfully.
At the same time, they also knew that their boss was at Peak Soldier King level.
He was much stronger than the two of them put together.
And such a person was treating a guy who looked barely of age with this level of respect—how could they not be shocked?
"By the way, do we know each other?" Lin Xi asked again.
Zhu Ying, "..."
Lin Yanxia, "..."
The two of them really had the urge to curse Lin Xi out. If you don’t know him, why is he treating you like this?
What if you make him angry?
At the end of the day, they were still on someone else’s turf.
Just because he was being respectful now, didn’t mean he always would be!
And you say something like that in front of everyone, aren’t you making him lose face?
The others were also a bit speechless at Lin Xi’s question.
Did this kid have no brain?
Even if you don’t remember, you shouldn’t ask like that in front of so many people!
Especially those security guards—they knew exactly how ruthless their boss was.
Anyone who had talked to him like that before had already been fed to the sharks.
Yet once again, to everyone’s surprise, there wasn’t the slightest trace of anger on Tong Zhan’s face; the excitement on his face didn’t even fade as he said, "Benefactor, I’ll never forget the life-saving grace you gave me in this lifetime!"
"Saved your life?" Lin Xi was stunned.
To be honest, he’d killed a lot of people, but he’d also conveniently saved quite a few.
It was just that those had all been done in passing.
So he had never paid much attention to it.
And he’d never thought anyone would remember him for it, much less that they’d want to repay him.
"Benefactor, let’s go upstairs and talk!" Tong Zhan glanced around—this wasn’t the place to chat with so many people around.
Lin Xi nodded as well!
As for gambling, he’d lost interest.
Over a billion was enough to spend for a while.
Besides, with the yacht owner being this polite, it wouldn’t look good if he went and won another few billion.
People have to learn what it means to be content.
Otherwise, you often end up shooting yourself in the foot!
After that, Lin Xi took Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia and, led by Tong Zhan, headed to the VIP room upstairs, the one reserved for the most important guests.
You could say that ever since that room had been renovated, it had barely ever been used.
In fact, Lin Yanxia didn’t want to go up; she wanted to keep gambling.
But Zhu Ying shot her a fierce glare, and she could only follow them up.
After the four of them entered the VIP room, the casino returned to normal operation.
As for that Japanese man and the four security guards, they were immediately carried away.
The smashed gaming table was quickly cleaned up.
The dealer guy who had just been playing against Lin Xi was in a pretty good mood at the moment; from the looks of it, the boss wasn’t going to punish him.
At the same time, he got even happier, because the number of gamblers at his table had increased a lot compared to before, and they were placing much bigger bets.
He guessed it was because he’d just lost that billion-plus earlier!
Of course, everyone was also wondering in their hearts who that young man was.
Anyone who could make the yacht owner treat him like that was definitely not some ordinary small fry, and to have saved him made him even more extraordinary!
Just who was he?
If they could cozy up to someone like that, it would be a huge win for them!
