My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen's tone was calm, but beneath that calm appearance, there was an unfathomable self-confidence and arrogance hidden, as if he was announcing to everyone: These 100,000 low-grade spirit stones were just a drop in the bucket for him. Even if it was 200,000, he could handle it easily and didn't care.

One hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones!

When this number was clearly heard by Jiao Yulang and Jin Lanlan, they were both stunned for a moment, as if they were under a spell. They stood still in place, with the expressions on their faces frozen in an instant.

Their eyes widened as they stared at the spirit stone card in Xiao Chen's hand, which looked ordinary but seemed to contain endless wealth. Their eyes were full of shock and disbelief, as if they couldn't believe what they heard.

Isn’t this guy an ordinary doctor in the health center?
How come there is such a huge amount of spirit stones in a card that can be taken out casually, and used as a bet so casually?
A gamble of one hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones?

My God, this is not an ordinary currency, not a dragon coin, not an eagle coin, and not a diamond coin. This is an extremely precious and rare spiritual stone! In the entire HDD area, spiritual stones are extremely precious cultivation resources, and their scarcity is beyond imagination.

It is not easy for any of the eight powerful families to come up with 100,000 low-grade spirit stones at once. At best, they can barely get together 50,000 or 60,000. If they want more, they will need to spend a lot of time and energy to circulate and allocate resources.

And this ordinary-looking little doctor in front of them actually took out 100,000 low-grade spirit stones as a bet so easily. This was simply hard to accept. It also made them deeply suspicious of Xiao Chen's true identity. They couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. Who is this person?
Jiao Yulang, a man who can turn the tide in the business world, is the heir of the Jiao family and one of the famous ten geniuses of Haidong. With the profound family heritage and his own outstanding business talents, he has ridden the wind and waves in the business world and gained countless wealth and glory. In his value system, wealth and status are undoubtedly the absolute yardsticks for measuring everything.

Therefore, when he first met Xiao Chen, an innate contempt quietly grew in his heart. In his eyes, Xiao Chen was just a rough and simple-minded person who only knew how to solve problems with brute force.

Jiao Yulang thought to himself that as a business elite, he might not be able to defeat Xiao Chen in terms of martial arts, but in this realistic life, who can make a living by fighting? In the final analysis, it is money and power that have the final say.

However, when Xiao Chen casually took out the spirit stone card which contained 200,000 low-grade spirit stones and planned to bet 100,000 low-grade spirit stones.

His heart was like a storm. You know, even though he was worth a lot of money, these 100,000 low-grade spirit stones were still an astronomical sum for him. He knew that even if he lived frugally and raised money everywhere, it would take him several years to barely get enough.

How could Xiao Chen, whom he usually looked down upon, be so rich? Two questions kept circling in his mind: Is this true, or is it an elaborate scam?

Jiao Yulang subconsciously cast his eyes towards Jiang Yixue who was standing opposite him. Jiang Yixue, a woman from a well-off family, was usually elegant and calm. At this moment, she was also shocked by the scene in front of her, and her originally delicate face was full of shock and confusion.

The pair of lively eyes widened, and the rosy lips trembled slightly, as if silently telling the shock in his heart. Seeing this scene, Jiao Yulang was certain that this matter had nothing to do with Jiang Yixue. He silently calculated in his heart that although Jiang Yixue lived a rich life, it was simply a fantasy for her to take out such a huge amount of spiritual stones. In other words, if what Xiao Chen said was true, and these 100,000 low-grade spiritual stones were really his own, then Jiang Yixue was also kept in the dark like himself.

Then, Jiao Yulang's eyes fell on Jin Lanlan. Jin Lanlan, the daughter of the Jin family of Black Hawk Company and the public relations manager of Ami Group, was always radiant in various social occasions and was used to being surrounded and admired by everyone.

Not long ago, she was still full of smugness, like a peacock that was extremely proud. She sneered at Jiang Yixiu and laughed at her for finding a poor friend who couldn't even take out one or two million to participate in the gambling.

But at this moment, she was struck by lightning. She sat there in a daze, her face full of shock and embarrassment. Her fair face instantly turned red, just like a ripe tomato, so red that it seemed like blood could drip out.

Jin Lanlan could never have imagined that this poor boy, whom she regarded as penniless, could actually take out 100,000 low-grade spirit stones so easily. This was like an extremely loud slap in her face.

She was the apple of the Jin family's eye. She was treated respectfully and respected wherever she went. Her family played an important role as one of the twelve directors in Black Hawk Company, and her father also had a high position in the Jin family, which made her always looked up to by others.

However, at this moment, she was in an extremely embarrassing situation. She suddenly realized that although she spent money like water and had a staggering amount of pocket money, she was powerless in the face of the bet of 100,000 low-grade spirit stones.

This was not a small amount, but an astronomical figure that made her hesitate. This was not 100,000 dragon coins. The difference between the two was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Xiao Chen looked at Jin Lanlan, whose face was flushed red, with just the right amount of surprise on his face. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said slowly with a hint of joking: "What's the matter, Jin Lanlan, you don't dare to accept it? As a senior executive of the Amei Group and the daughter of the overseas Jin family, you can't be unable to take out these 100,000 low-grade spirit stones, right?"

Jin Lanlan's face became redder and redder, as if blood could drip out. Xiao Chen's words were like an extremely sharp dagger, piercing straight into her heart, returning the mocking words she had said before in double. This was undoubtedly a slap in her face in front of everyone.

But the problem was that she couldn't refute it at all, because everything Xiao Chen said was true, and she really couldn't afford the money. At this moment, she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into, her heart full of regret and unwillingness.

Seeing Jin Lanlan's expression, Jiao Yulang knew that Jin Lanlan definitely couldn't come up with 100,000 low-grade spirit stones. This was completely a mockery from Xiao Chen, so he quickly said, "We're out to have fun, a little gambling is fun, why would you bet so much? It's not necessary, not necessary." (End of this chapter)
