Capítulo 1620: Chapter 1572: Such Intimacy (Part 4)

Back at the table, Yao Mengfei and Wu Jiang immediately whispered: “How did it go?”

Lin Bing twitched his mouth and said, “We’ve kicked an iron plate this time; he’s the head of the He Su Family, you’d better hurry and gather some money.” 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Yao Mengfei and Wu Jiang were taken aback for a moment, then remembered what the He Su Family represented, and their eyes widened. They immediately shot up and rushed to call their families.

Su Yao was talking to Yang Yushi next to her when her phone suddenly rang. She glanced at it casually and her eyes widened in shock.

Yang Yushi asked, “What’s wrong?”

“This… Why is there money coming in? Oh my, this must be their gambling debt, right?”

“What gambling debt?” Yang Yushi looked curious.

Su Yao briefly explained the card game that had happened.

Yang Yushi showed a face of regret and said, “That’s such a shame. I didn’t witness such an exciting event. We should have come a bit earlier.”

Su Yao curled her lips and said, “It’s just… I thought they wouldn’t pay up, but they actually did.”

Yang Yushi burst out laughing and said, “They wouldn’t dare not to pay, you know.”

Su Yao was stunned for a moment, sensing that Yang Yushi’s words carried a deeper meaning.

Just as she was about to ask, Lin Bing, Yao Mengfei, and Wu Jiang all came over carrying their wine glasses.

Just as they were about to speak, Song Xiaodong sighed and said, “Go on with your dinner; as long as they’ve acknowledged the debt, it’s fine.”

Lin Bing, Yao Mengfei, and Wu Jiang were momentarily at a loss for words.

Yang Yushi chimed in and said, “Go back and enjoy your drinks.”

Finally understanding, Lin Bing quickly said, “Then I won’t interrupt.” and turned back to his seat.

“Dongzi, did they really pay up?” Zhou Peng asked cautiously.

Su Yao waved her phone and said, “They really did, over a hundred million…”

“Phew!” Everyone’s eyes widened; over one hundred million, it was absolutely astronomical. Just a few rounds of cards, and Song Xiaodong won over a hundred million. The shocking part is that they actually paid up.

Su Yao, being an executive at Qingyuan Group, had seen billion-dollar contracts before, but the impact of seeing such a large sum enter her account was completely different.

Yang Yushi chuckled lightly and said, “Hmm, not bad, earning money like this is indeed quite amusing.”

After being stunned by the hundred million for a while, Cui Sijiao suddenly looked at Song Xiaodong and said, “Dongzi, I feel there’s something odd about this, considering their attitude from before…”

Song Xiaodong coughed dryly and said, “It’s just that with Yushi and Xianling here, they didn’t want to lose face in front of them.” Song Xiaodong was obviously trying to cover up, but it made Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling find it even more interesting; a man like Song Xiaodong, clearly in a high position, still tried to conceal it among classmates, obviously not wanting to lose the camaraderie, earning their admiration.

Everyone glanced at Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling, feeling that Song Xiaodong made sense, though there seemed to be something amiss they couldn’t quite articulate.

Song Xiaodong felt he couldn’t stay there any longer, smiled wryly, and said, “Everyone, I have something to attend to, so I’ll leave now. Enjoy yourselves.”

Yang Yushi immediately said, “It’s just right, we have things to do too, let’s leave together.”

Saying that, Su Yao and the others felt they couldn’t keep them, so everyone rose to send them off.

And as Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling left, almost everybody stood up to send them off, watching as Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling accompanied Song Xiaodong on either side as they departed.

“Phew…” Chen Yong finally exhaled deeply.

At this moment, a large group of people suddenly arrived, surprisingly the elders of Liu Yang.

Upon entering, someone excitedly said, “Liu Yang, where is Patriarch Song?”
