"Twenty million..."

Qin Fang looked at Sun Shu's expression and understood what he meant; he knew that the figure he mentioned was significantly understated.

"In that case, let me double it and add another twenty million..."

Since he intended to win, Qin Fang saw no need for courtesy with Lu Ming and simply doubled the amount Sun Shu had mentioned, making the bet forty million.

"Wow..."

The moment Qin Fang spoke, many people present heard him, and it caused quite an uproar; his move was indeed grandiose, immediately raising the stakes to millions and multiplying it several times.

Everyone present was a renowned local figure in Yangcheng, each possessing some wealth. They would often gamble in smaller amounts, typically tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. A multimillion bet thrilled each one of them.

Sun Shu and Lu Ming's bets always attracted crowds, even though everyone knew Sun Shu was bound to lose. Still, the thrill of watching such a large sum of money being lost was irresistibly satisfying.

Yet this time was exceptionally fierce, for mere millions weren't enough— directly escalating to tens of millions... Damn, many didn't even have that much in their entire fortune!

Upon hearing this, Sun Shu's eyes nearly popped out; his heart trembled incessantly from the shock!

Xiao Xiao also opened her mouth slightly; although she vaguely knew Qin Fang might be skilled at racing, she hadn't expected him to place such a large bet...

Considering Qin Fang hadn't even driven himself here nor assessed the opponent's driving skills, placing such a large bet was truly domineering.

Lu Ming reacted similarly to Sun Shu, his eyes wide open and staring intently at Qin Fang, as if trying to discern whether this young man was joking.

Millions in bets were definitely a big deal; such amounts were not playthings for the average person. When Lu Ming heard this figure, his heart too trembled endlessly.

Half in excitement, half in apprehension...

If he won, he would make a fortune overnight, but if he lost... it would be a devastating financial defeat.

However, Lu Ming wasn't the type to act without thinking. Hearing Qin Fang's high bet, he pondered whether Qin Fang was merely flaunting his wealth or truly held a strong hand; he had to consider carefully.

"What's the matter? Young Master Lu, are you scared?"

Seeing Lu Ming's hesitant expression, Qin Fang employed the Goading Strategy, his face adorned with a faint smile, while his lips curled slightly disdainfully.

"Scared? I, Lu Ming, don't even know how to write the word 'scared'..."

Being belittled by a foreigner on his own turf, Lu Ming had never received such treatment and almost reflexively furrowed his brows and responded indignantly.

Who was he, Lu Ming?

In Yangcheng, he was a man whose word was law. Officially, Sun Shu was the top dog in Yangcheng, but when it came down to it, Lu Ming, who had sway over both legitimate and underworld circles, was the real kingpin.

"Forty million it is... just afraid Young Master Qin won't have the money to pay!"

Provoked by Qin Fang's challenge, Lu Ming dropped his caution, immediately agreed, and swiftly retaliated.

Qin Fang was a stranger, and even now, Lu Ming wasn't certain of Qin Fang's background. Forty million was no small amount; if Qin Fang lost and denied the debt, fleeing straightaway, wouldn't Lu Ming suffer a huge loss?

As for collecting the debt from Sun Shu...

Lu Ming knew very well that Sun Shu didn't have the means to cough up such a large sum. If it came to sacrificing the less essential to save the crucial, then he would have wasted his efforts.

"Forty million is but a trifle..."

Qin Fang appeared nonchalant, pulling out a peculiar chequebook, briskly writing a series of digits, and tearing it off with an indifferent air.

"The current exchange rate of the Euro to RMB is about eight something; this is a cashier's cheque from Swiss Bank for five million Euro..."

Holding the cheque in hand and twirling it lightly, his tone remained utterly indifferent—as though it was not forty million but merely a piece of ordinary waste paper.

Lu Ming was slightly surprised, he gave a meaningful look to one of his underlings who immediately stepped forward to verify the cheque,

Soon, there was a result.

"Young Master Lu, the check is fine..."

The check was naturally fine, as the transfer payment Li Enhui made to Qin Fang was kept in Swiss Bank. He just temporarily took it out for use, sure that he wouldn't be handing it out.

"Good..."

Although Lu Ming was also surprised, he could not back down at this point. He gave Qin Fang and Sun Shu a dark look and then pulled out his own checkbook. He imitated Qin Fang and signed a check for forty million as well.

"No need to verify it, I trust Young Master Lu still has that much credibility... otherwise, I could always make a personal visit to collect debts!"

After signing the check, Lu Ming also intended to let Qin Fang's people verify it, but Qin Fang declined casually.

Those words seemed like praise for Lu Ming, but they sounded off nevertheless.

Especially to Su Xiaoxiao, who immediately showed a hint of a smile.

Qin Fang making a personal visit to collect debts?

Lu Ming would probably not die but would certainly suffer severe damage...

"Hmph... the check is signed, so let's get started!"

Lu Ming was also not in a good mood, but he couldn't lash out and could only say with a huff.

"Not so fast..."

Qin Fang suddenly called a halt, turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao, who was smiling, and said, "Wife, how much private money do you have?"

"Uh... about ten million or so, what do you want to do?"

Su Xiaoxiao was taken aback and seemed a bit puzzled, but she responded nevertheless.

"Let's count that in as well, consider it as me earning some private money for you..."

Qin Fang shrugged innocently, but his tone was very calm and even carried a playful meaning while speaking.

"Ah... really? But what if I lose?"

Su Xiaoxiao was also startled, not expecting Qin Fang to do this. She wanted to laugh, but she was also somewhat worried.

"How can I possibly lose... Don't worry, if I really lose, I'll pay you back double..."

Qin Fang replied nonchalantly, even pounding his chest in assurance.

This statement was quite magnanimous. If this was before, maybe many people wouldn't believe him; just doubling ten million to more than twenty million, he said it so lightly... But just now, Qin Fang had signed for five million Euros as if it were nothing more than throwing away a piece of scrap paper. They truly believed his words were genuine.

Lu Ming really had the urge to vomit blood. What kind of person was this? Gambling his own money was one thing, but to even include his woman's money, all under the pretense of earning private money for the wife... was there such an unscrupulous person?

"Well... okay then! I'm just not sure if the others would agree..."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Qin Fang like that, and with her limited understanding of him, she knew he was not the kind to talk nonsense blindly. If he dared to bet so big, it likely meant he had something solid to back it up.

Moreover, ten million might not be a small amount, but with Qin Fang's abilities, just taking on a few larger tasks would easily earn it back. Of course, she didn't mind whether Qin Fang would really lose all her money.

"Young Master Lu, what do you think..."

Su Xiaoxiao threw the question to Lu Ming, giving Qin Fang a chance as well.

"Take it!"

Although Lu Ming was inwardly frustrated, forty million was a gamble, fifty million was also a gamble, he couldn't be looked down upon by a woman, so he gritted his teeth and took it on, immediately pulling out his checkbook and swiftly signing another check for ten million...

Yet his feelings inside were intensely frustrated, the feeling of being led by the nose by this outsider, Qin Fang, was incredibly unpleasant... Naturally, his resentment towards Qin Fang grew even deeper, his gaze becoming more venomous.(To be continued.
