Chapter 357: Chapter 376 Invitation (6th Update)
Lin Xi sat in the passenger seat of the little red BMW, looking as if nothing had ever happened.
"You’re not really planning to go, are you?" Xi Xiaoyi couldn’t help but worry when she thought of what had just happened.
"Why not go? Besides, they sincerely invited me, turning them down would be rude!" Lin Xi said as if it was a matter of serious importance, "Moreover, as the underground kingpin of Beicheng, I can’t afford to provoke him with my small arms and legs, so I have to go."
Hearing Lin Xi talk like this, Xi Xiaoyi wasn’t so nervous anymore and directly spat, "From your act just now, I didn’t see a shred of fear in you."
"In your eyes, he’s probably the one with the small arms and legs!"
"Sister Yi, I’m serious!" Lin Xi said sincerely.
Xi Xiaoyi couldn’t possibly imagine how the assertive person from earlier turned into such a clown now, "Speak like a human!"
Lin Xi chuckled and then spoke seriously, "Actually, I’m really broke lately and want to earn some money!"
Thinking of his fortune close to a billion, now reduced to just ten or twenty thousand, he couldn’t help but feel his heart bleeding.
"Nine out of ten gamblers lose, you studied abroad, shouldn’t you know this?" Xi Xiaoyi couldn’t help but advise, "If you’re short on cash, I have some savings, you can borrow first."
She assumed Lin Xi had just graduated and returned from abroad, so he was temporarily in need of money in Chuzhou City.
"No need to trouble Sister Yi, I can handle it myself!" Lin Xi was embarrassed to admit, his need for money wasn’t like others’.
"Then you..." Xi Xiaoyi thought for a moment but didn’t say anything, she felt she couldn’t quite fathom this newcomer.
Lin Xi smiled without speaking, but thought of what Wang Wudao had just told him; he was actually just inviting him to watch the underground fight championships at the beginning of next month.
It was hinted that the championship was just a gimmick; the real spectacle was a grand gamble involving all the underground forces of Chuzhou City, a genuine underground syndicate gathering.
Every year, at this time, quite a few kingpins would nearly lose their pants, even losing their territories outright.
But for Dark Night Sect, it was a rare opportunity to gain fame.
Besides, Lin Xi thought about the more than 80 million in his card, which hadn’t even warmed up before disappearing, making him more determined to check it out.
"Xiaolin, what are you thinking about?" asked Xi Xiaoyi, driving.
Lin Xi snapped out of it, stared at her and said, "I’m thinking about Sister Yi."
"..." Xi Xiaoyi was first stunned, then blushed slightly and cursed, "Be serious!"
"Really thinking, why don’t you come over and touch here, lying makes my heart race!" Lin Xi earnestly pointed at his chest.
Xi Xiaoyi held her forehead, "Do you really think I’m a three-year-old child, so easy to deceive?"
"In my heart, Sister Yi is like a three-year-old, one I want to keep there forever!" Lin Xi said.
Hearing this, Xi Xiaoyi suddenly felt warm inside, but moments later she became a bit sad, "Xiaolin, you don’t mind that I’m not as pure as you imagine, do you? I’m already a single mom with a kid."
"If I had met you earlier, it would have been so good, that incident wouldn’t have happened with anyone else..."
"Earlier, I was still a kid, Sister Yi has hobbies of loving young ones!" Lin Xi said.
"Pfft~"
Feeling a bit down, Xi Xiaoyi couldn’t help but laugh.
But this time Lin Xi didn’t laugh; instead, he spoke solemnly, "I’ve never minded about Sister Yi. In my view, you’re much purer than many others."
"Moreover, Sister Yi’s child is my child, my child, whom I would naturally love dearly."
"Pfft~"
Xi Xiaoyi couldn’t help but laugh again and immediately teased, "You’ve got pretty thoughts, I haven’t agreed yet, and you’re already taking advantage? Seems you’re not a good guy, being all flirty, I’ll have to reconsider!"
"No, no, no, Sister Yi, I was wrong!" Lin Xi quickly replied.
The two bantered and joked all the way until Xi Xiaoyi stopped the car in front of a high-end kindergarten.
