Chapter 808: The Return of the Diamond Gold Card
Chapter 808: The Return of the Diamond Gold Card
Is this real or fake?
Could this young man really be so wealthy?
This... this is just too incredible!
...
Similarly, Huang Shi’s friends were all stunned by the sight; they could not have imagined that before the gamble even started, this young man would wager one hundred million US dollars on a football bet. This... this is just too exaggerated! Who on earth is this young man, and how can he be so confident? That’s one hundred million we’re talking about! Last time, Huang Shi lost at football betting, and now... now this young man dares to bet like this? His... his guts are just too big. If he loses, how much money will he lose...
"Alright, the bets are placed, let’s start playing Texas Hold’em now. Turn off the TV for now, we’ll turn it back on after it’s finished, so it doesn’t distract us." Lin Feng, having seen enough, suggested they continue with the next round of gambling. The outcome was already determined, and all that was left was to wait for the end to see the results. There was no need to keep watching the TV; it was better to get on with the Texas Hold’em game. And, most importantly, Lin Feng planned to pull the rug out from under Catherine when the final results were known.
"Of course, Mr. Lin, as you wish. But I’m curious, how many chips would Mr. Lin like to exchange for?" Upon hearing Lin Feng’s eagerness to bet on Texas Hold’em, Catherine immediately perked up. If he was this impatient, how skilled could his gambling be? At this thought, Catherine even determined that she wouldn’t need to use the Soul-Bewitching Technique on a newcomer like Lin Feng. She could probably clean him out with just a few simple gambling techniques.
Catherine’s gaze was fixed tightly on Lin Feng, wanting to know how much money he brought with him today. Given that Lin Feng started off with a hundred million US dollars bet on a football game, he must have brought a substantial sum this time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have started off with such a high amount. But Catherine still felt that seeing is believing; if Lin Feng was just making an appearance and didn’t have the money to back it, then she would lose out if he was only pretending to be a cash player. That was not a situation she wanted to see.
So, to be sure, Catherine dropped her smile and asked Lin Feng directly, which would allow her to make other plans accordingly.
"I don’t mind either way, Miss Catherine. How much money do you have? I’ll exchange for as many chips as you have," Lin Feng replied nonchalantly to Catherine’s question. As far as Lin Feng was concerned, money truly had no meaning; he never cared about money. Since he came to take revenge for Huang Shi this time, he might as well see how much money Catherine had. Just exchanging for a roughly equivalent number of chips would be fine.
"Really, Mr. Lin? Are you sure? My net worth is not insignificant," Catherine replied, taken aback by Lin Feng’s words. She didn’t expect him to be so bold as to ask how much money she had. What was Lin Feng thinking?
Could Lin Feng really be a superbly rich ’fat sheep’, possessing wealth on par with her own, and could so casually place it as a bet?
That... that’s impossible! She herself had a fortune of over twenty billion US dollars. How could this young man compare to her?
At this thought, Catherine could not believe that Lin Feng could possibly have that much wealth, which prompted her to ask, unable to hide her skepticism.
"Of course. Just tell me your net worth, you must recognize this card," Lin Feng said calmly, and then pulled out a dazzling Diamond Gold Card and tossed it onto the table. He was not in the mood for small talk; he wanted Catherine to know he had the financial means.
"What! A Diamond Gold Card from Swiss Union Bank, how... how is this possible! Lin... Lin Feng..." Upon seeing the Diamond Gold Card that Lin Feng casually threw onto the table, Catherine’s eyes nearly popped out. How could she not recognize this Diamond Gold Card? It was a symbol of status and wealth. Not to mention anything else, this card required a minimum of ten billion US dollars to possess. At this thought, Catherine’s gaze towards Lin Feng completely changed; she could never have dreamed of encountering a person with a Diamond Gold Card here...
How... how could this be possible!
Lin Feng is so young; how could he possess such wealth!
This... this can’t be, it just can’t be!
Could it be... Could Lin Feng be the son of some world-famous billionaire? No, that’s not right; there aren’t any Chinese billionaires with the last name Lin!
This... this...
Catherine’s mind was now filled with endless astonishment and questions because she simply could not fathom such a thing happening—an individual with a Diamond Gold Card appearing on her gambling ship to gamble with her. This was truly inconceivable. What on earth was going on, and who exactly was this young man...
No matter how much Catherine thought about it, she could not figure out Lin Feng’s identity. Among the world’s billionaires, there wasn’t a single Chinese person with the surname Lin, so who in the world was Lin Feng? At this moment, Catherine felt her head was about to explode. She certainly knew what owning that gold card meant. Today’s events had far exceeded her expectations, leaving her mind completely blank...
Seeing Lin Feng throw down that Diamond Gold Card, Huang Shi couldn’t help feeling proudly smug, thinking how naive Catherine was to dare ask the Boss how much money he had. Now she had seen it. Just watch how Catherine would react to that—it’s a Swiss Union Bank Diamond Gold Card, for heaven’s sake, of which there are only so many in the entire world!
When he saw Catherine’s ghost-like expression, Huang Shi’s smile grew even wider. Catherine’s reaction was no surprise. That Diamond Gold Card had already caused a sensation at the auction in H Country; today Catherine dared to doubt the Boss. Really, her knowledge was as short as her hair.
"What... what is that?"
"Is that a Swiss Bank Diamond Gold Card?"
"This... this... Am I seeing things?"
"God... heavens! Who is Lin Feng, and how could he have a Swiss Bank Diamond Gold Card..."
Like Catherine, everyone in the hall had seen everything happening in the private room through the big screen, and all were stunned by the event unfolding before their eyes. They all watched the Diamond Gold Card on the screen, mouths agape, yet speechless because the scene was too shocking. They’d never dreamed that they’d encounter this legendary Diamond Gold Card on a gambling ship—it was just too unbelievable!
Those who had come to gamble on the ship were all prominent, well-known, and wealthy individuals in Tianhai. Although they had never seen the rumored Swiss Bank Diamond Gold Card in person, they still knew what that card represented. It was for individuals with over ten billion US Dollars. Just who exactly was this Lin Feng, and how could he possibly have this card? It seemed like there wasn’t such a gold card holder in all of Tianhai!
Thinking this, everyone’s head grew even more muddled. They couldn’t figure out who Lin Feng really was. There wasn’t a single doubt in their minds about the authenticity of the Diamond Gold Card; if Huang Shi treated him with such respect, willingly standing behind him, how could Lin Feng possibly be using a fake card? It just wasn’t possible. However, there wasn’t a single super-rich person like Lin Feng in Tianhai. This was truly bizarre—who was he, the heir to which family?
It was only at this moment that the people in the hall realized why Lin Feng could sit so regally while Huang Shi stood behind him; it turned out Lin Feng had such status. No wonder Huang Shi had come looking for Catherine to gamble; relying on this young man’s wealth was one thing, but whether or not the young man could win against Catherine was another matter...
"Mr. Lin, you’ve really shocked me. My personal fortune isn’t much, just a little over two billion US Dollars. How about this—for today, each of us puts out two billion US Dollars to gamble. What do you say?" After the initial shock, Catherine regained her composure. Although her heart was still racing, the prospect of facing someone with Lin Feng’s financial power excited her once again. Two billion US Dollars—that’s a lot! If she could win Lin Feng’s two billion today and anger him, who knew how much more he might wager afterwards!
Thinking this, Catherine imagined she could already see a gleaming mountain of gold beckoning to her. After today, she might become a super-rich tycoon with over a hundred billion US Dollars. By then, no matter how impressive Lin Feng’s background might be, if she found a place to hide away, Lin Feng would have no way of getting to her. She would have enough to squander for a lifetime!
In Catherine’s view, today’s gamble with Lin Feng would surely end in her victory. By then, she would possess wealth beyond her wildest dreams. In fact, she had already planned her escape: the moment she won all Lin Feng’s money, she would kick him off the gambling ship, or perhaps even kill him, then immediately leave on the ship heading to H Country for plastic surgery, after which no one would be able to recognize her. By then, not even Lin Feng’s family would be able to find her, and she could do whatever she wanted in the world, couldn’t she?
"Alright, you get the chips," Lin Feng said, indicating they should start the game and swap for chips. He had already seen through Catherine’s expressions and felt even more at ease. Catherine was stepping exactly onto the path he had prearranged for her. Since the woman was greedy, then let her reap her own consequences. With that thought, Lin Feng felt even more composed and fully mapped out his next moves.
