Chapter 891: Chapter 896: Bring It On (Part 1)
"Proof?" Lin Xi couldn’t help but laugh!
If he showed off his savings, everyone present would probably feel like trash!
But wealth shouldn’t be flaunted; there’s no need for others to know about it. Yes, he’s a modest person.
Of course, it’s not that he’s afraid others would plot against him because he has so much money; he just feels there’s no need.
As for others targeting him, in the end, they would surely end up unlucky.
"Yes, prove it!" Zhong Tianchu saw Lin Xi’s reluctant expression and couldn’t hide his smugness.
This kid is definitely talking nonsense!
Feng Zi, standing beside him, also chimed in, "If you don’t have money, don’t brag!"
"Otherwise, you’ll just embarrass yourself and become a joke for the kids."
As for the children, they widened their eyes, watching the three with excitement.
Being too young, they didn’t understand what was happening.
They just felt it might be interesting, so many kids were eagerly anticipating Lin Xi’s answer.
Xixi, who was in Lin Xi’s arms, knew precisely what was happening with her high intelligence.
At this moment, a hint of worry flashed across her little face, but she didn’t say anything because she could feel Lin Xi was very confident, and he never seemed like someone who spoke recklessly.
In fact, most of the time, she couldn’t see through this man, the one her mom liked.
Naturally, he was also someone she liked.
But one thing was certain: When he was around, she felt very secure and extremely happy, as if she was spending time with her mom.
Now, everyone was waiting for Lin Xi’s response.
In their eyes, this young man was likely just boasting; who would bet fifty million, regardless of how rich they were? But one thing puzzled them: why was this person so calm?
Both the kindergarten teacher and male teacher didn’t know what to do about this situation!
Or rather, it was entirely beyond their control.
Before they could come up with a solution, Lin Xi looked at Zhong Tianchu and then glanced at Feng Zi, "Do you think I can’t come up with it?"
"I think it’s you who can’t come up with it!"
Zhong Tianchu laughed, "Zhong Tianchu is somewhat famous in Chuzhou City; making tens of millions a year; five million is really nothing to me!"
"If you don’t believe me, you can ask everyone here!"
Many nodded and started praising, saying that Boss Zhong wouldn’t bat an eye at even ten million.
But Lin Xi shook his head, "You might come up with it, but what about her?"
It was clear to everyone that he was referring to Feng Zi.
They immediately looked over with anticipation, hoping she could be like Zhong Tianchu.
However, reality wasn’t so perfect; people who could easily come up with five million wouldn’t likely send their children to this kindergarten.
At this moment, Feng Zi, realizing she was the center of attention, blushed slightly.
She indeed couldn’t come up with five million!
Maybe her husband could, but that would mean selling their assets.
So he definitely wouldn’t play this game with her, and honestly, even if they won, there’d be no substantial reward.
Why bother!
Before she could respond, Lin Xi had a card in his hand and, in front of everyone, called the bank, inputting the card number, password, and some unique validation.
Then he asked, "If I want to withdraw fifty million, I can do so anytime, right?"
Immediately, a soft and professional female voice replied, "Yes, yes, as long as it’s Mr. Lin, you can anytime!"
"If you’re unavailable, we can have someone send it to your home!"
"Mm-hmm," Lin Xi responded and hung up the phone.
He had used the speakerphone, so everyone present could hear the bank’s customer service voice.
Instantly, the previously sarcastic voices and various expressions disappeared.
Everyone here was wealthy.
Though they didn’t have as much, they were VIP customers at the bank.
But to enjoy such treatment as the customer service from earlier, they realized the trembling and flattery in the voice.
It seemed like if Lin Xi asked her to sleep with him, she would undress without hesitation and lie obediently on the bed.
Clearly, this person was a VIP among the VIPs, undoubtedly one of the top patrons at the bank.
These patrons certainly had deposits not less than a hundred million.
"Who exactly is this person?" Almost ninety percent of the people couldn’t help but wonder internally.
Simultaneously, why would someone so wealthy dress so poorly?
This left almost everyone puzzled.
Feng Zi, who had initially disliked Lin Xi, had a few different expressions on her face, seemingly improving her attitude towards him.
If necessary, she would unhesitatingly cling to Lin Xi’s leg.
Of course, not everyone believed Lin Xi, like Zhong Tianchu, who thought Lin Xi had made a phony call.
But he had no evidence.
Moreover, he couldn’t be the one to expose it, as Lin Xi had already proved it, and he noticed almost everyone except a few believed him.
Also, he noticed that many who had been close to him started distancing themselves, seemingly wanting to keep a certain gap from him.
"These sycophants!" he cursed inwardly, especially realizing that even Feng Zi, who had been on his side, changed her attitude, "Shameless bitch!"
Next moment, he pointed at Lin Xi, "Stop wasting time, let’s compete!"
"I refuse to believe you can actually get first; just don’t make a fool of yourself then!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi looked at Feng Zi again, shaking his head, "She also needs to come up with five million, otherwise, you don’t qualify to compete with me!"
"What’s it to me that she needs five million?" Zhong Tianchu frowned, puzzled.
Before Lin Xi could even speak, another parent shouted, "You two were provoking together earlier; she certainly can’t be left out."
"Besides, Boss Zhong, you’re so wealthy, five million is no big deal; why not help her out?"
"After all, you two were chatting so heartily just now!"
He was also a restaurant owner, whose business had always been good; but when Zhong Tianchu’s fame rose, it took away much of his business.
Normally, he wouldn’t dare speak to Zhong Tianchu like this, but now he’s not afraid; clearly, that young man is more formidable.
For him, hitting someone when they’re down was something he couldn’t shirk.
Once he said this, others couldn’t help but chime in, saying Lin Xi put up fifty million, so how could Zhong Tianchu not come up with even one million?
Some were even embarrassed by the TV appearances, saying it disgraced his reputation!
Turns out, it was just random boasting!
Not living up to the name!
....
Feng Zi also looked at Zhong Tianchu with some anticipation, hoping he would help with the money, and she certainly wouldn’t refuse.
She didn’t want to offend either Lin Xi or Zhong Tianchu, and if given a chance, she thought making connections with them would be great.
Zhong Tianchu felt a bit gloomy, everyone supporting him previously, but now a single phone call changed everything?
"Fine, I’ll do it!" He was now trapped, unable to decline, or he’d lose face.
And hearing this, Lin Xi had a faint smile on his face.
