Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 1221: Gambling with People


"Who said I would breach the agreement?" Jiang Miaoke was furious at the moment, glaring at the chubby man, and said coldly, "Let me tell you, whatever Miss Ye has promised is always set in stone. Now, call Wang Zhonglin out for me."

Jiang Miaoke was in a typical state of exasperation at this moment. However, fortunately, she's not the one competing later, so Ye Xiao stood beside Jiang Miaoke, smiling, without saying a word.

Right then, a young man in a white sweater came out. Undeniably, he was quite good-looking, but he also gave off a bit of a creamy-gentleman vibe. As he walked out, he raised his eyebrows, looked at Jiang Miaoke, and said with a smile, "Coco, you've come so quickly—take a seat. Chubby, pour some tea."

"No need." Jiang Miaoke immediately looked at Wang Zhonglin and said, "I'm not here for tea. Like your friend mentioned, we have a bet."

"Coco, you're really trustworthy. Yes, we did say that if you could beat me, or if you could find someone to beat me within twelve hours in any game, then there's no connection between us anymore, and certainly not with Miss Ye," Wang Zhonglin replied calmly, like a superior speaking to subordinates.

However, to the starstruck onlookers, this was precisely why they admired Wang Zhonglin, because to them, he brimmed with charisma.

But to Jiang Miaoke, it was extremely annoying because she didn't see any charisma; instead, she saw a man full of himself.

"Can you stop pretending? Don't assume you're invincible; there are countless people stronger than you in this world. At least the person beside me is much stronger," Jiang Miaoke said, glaring at Wang Zhonglin.

Wang Zhonglin raised an eyebrow at the mention of Ye Xiao, who was standing beside Jiang Miaoke.

Ye Xiao's expression was gentle as he looked at Wang Zhonglin with a smile. After noticing Wang Zhonglin's gaze, Ye Xiao nodded slightly and politely.

"Do you want to challenge me?" Wang Zhonglin looked at Ye Xiao and sneered.

Ye Xiao stepped forward, smiling at Wang Zhonglin, and said, "I've heard that Brother Lin possesses great skills; proficient to the level of mastery in any competitive game. I truly admire that. I'm here today not to challenge you, but to learn from you. I hope Brother Lin can enlighten me. Of course, it's only natural if I lose, since Brother Lin is a master-level competition expert."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Miaoke and Ye Ziyan looked at Ye Xiao, clearly baffled by his words. They didn't understand what was going on with Ye Xiao. He was supposed to compete, yet his words sounded like he was begging, with no confidence at all.

"Do you realize what consequences your so-called 'learning' might bring?" Wang Zhonglin asked Ye Xiao, with an even more arrogant demeanor.

Ye Xiao then hurriedly said on purpose, "What? Isn't it just playing a few games? What's all the fuss? I never heard Jiang Miaoke mention this before. You guys aren't betting money, are you? If this is about betting money, I don't have the capital for that. Let me clarify that first."

Wang Zhonglin, upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, sneered and said, "Bet money? Ha, we don't bet money. Betting money is illegal. We bet people."

"Bet people?" Ye Xiao deliberately responded, "Huh? Bet people? You're not joking, are you? Who can be bet here? Besides, slavery isn't a thing anymore. I'm not particularly strong, so I can't do heavy work."

"Haha, you're quite funny, kid. You thought we're betting on you? Just look at yourself, what qualifies you to be here?" The chubby man laughed loudly at Ye Xiao and said, "To be honest with you, if you lose to our Brother Lin in the games, the two beauties next to you will become our Brother Lin's girlfriends—that's what they promised."

"Huh?" Ye Xiao stared at Jiang Miaoke beside him, pretending to be surprised, "Is that true? Is he really saying the truth? This is too much. Can we discuss this further?"

Jiang Miaoke felt a bit angry listening to Ye Xiao's words, wondering what game Ye Xiao was playing.

However, Ye Ziyan understood Ye Xiao well, knowing what he was up to, she quickly said, "We're really out of options for a skilled player. Just give it a try; sometimes it's about luck. You might win. If you do, we'll do whatever you say."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Ye Xiao immediately said, "Is that true?"

Ye Ziyan replied, "Of course, it's true."

Ye Xiao said, "Then, if I ask you to be my girlfriends, would you agree?"

"If you win, really asking us to be your girlfriends—well, we have no choice. We're people of our word," Ye Ziyan said with a face full of helplessness.

Ye Xiao immediately slapped his thigh, looked at Wang Zhonglin, and said, "Even though I know my own abilities, I still want to give it a shot. I might actually win."

"Haha, this kid must be a fool," people around laughed loudly, evidently thinking Ye Xiao might be someone who plays games but is just a pretender.

"Are you really sure you want to compete against me?" Wang Zhonglin asked Ye Xiao slowly.

Ye Xiao chuckled and nodded, "Of course, I want to compete. I don't have a girlfriend yet. If I could get two stunning girlfriends at once, my life would be complete."

At this moment, hearing Ye Xiao's words, Jiang Miaoke felt some anger. She really wanted to expose Ye Xiao, but for her freedom, she could only let Ye Xiao rant.

Wang Zhonglin practically paid no mind to Ye Xiao. So, after listening to Ye Xiao's words, he immediately said, "Alright, tell me what you want to compete in."

Ye Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I heard you guys competed in League of Legends before."

"Yeah, do you also want to compete in League of Legends?" Wang Zhonglin asked and added, "I must warn you, my skills in League of Legends are pretty good. It could be quite disadvantageous for you."

"Thanks for the reminder, Brother Lin, but I think if we don't compete in League of Legends, it wouldn't be fair either. But if it's only League of Legends, that's a bit unfair to me too. How about this, we compete in three games, with League of Legends being one of them, a best of three?"

Wang Zhonglin listened to Ye Xiao's proposal and softly laughed, "Interesting. Three games. You can choose them yourself."
