chapter 31 bet

Without further ado, Zheng Tao was ready to call for backup. But at this moment, Reese Dong stopped him. "Forget it, Zheng Tao, there's no need to make such a fuss over such a trivial matter." After saying that, she turned directly to Nash Lin. "Out of respect for Gwen, I won't publicly expose your sneaking in this time. I know you're trying to take this opportunity to get to know and cling to some big shots, but it's useless. The inferior will always be inferior, no matter how hard you try, you can't fit into our circle. Moreover, consider this auction a lesson for you to see the huge gap between people like you and the upper class. After this auction, I don't want to see you pestering Gwen anymore. Can you do that?" Hearing Reese Dong use this opportunity to completely drive Nash Lin away from Gwen Su, Zheng Tao swallowed the words he was about to say, he equally did not want to see Nash Lin continue to be around Gwen Su. And Nash Lin, after listening, just laughed. "To let me see the difference between myself and the upper class? With just the few of you?" "That's right, us few is more than enough!" Zheng Tao spoke proudly, without any hesitation. And Reese Dong just watched Nash Lin indifferently, her gaze filled with a sense of entitlement and even a touch of condescending pity. "Nash Lin, it's not that I want to crush you, I just want you to face reality. The little money you have, you can't even afford the king crab in front of you, let alone bid at the auction. In our eyes, this is just an ordinary man, and it's no exaggeration to say that you can't afford a single item at the auction, while we are just there to pick what we like. Since the auction hasn't started yet, if you understand the gap between us and leave now, I won't mock you. Go on, leave Gwen alone, don't disgrace yourself." Reese Dong watched Nash Lin, her eyes full of calm. But it was this calmness that was more hurtful. Because it was disdain that hurt most. Seeing Reese Dong's self-righteous demeanour, Nash Lin was truly amused. She had looked down on him from the beginning, interfered with his relationship with Gwen, and now, in front of everyone, she scorned him, telling him to stay away from Gwen. As the saying goes, even the kindest person has their limits to being angry. Time and again, she flaunted herself before him, and even if she really was Gwen's best friend, Nash Lin was getting angry. He decided to give this woman a memorable lesson. With this thought, Nash Lin's mouth curled into a playful cold smile, "Are you so sure that I can't afford any item at the auction with the money I have?" "Of course!" Reese Dong's eyes did not avoid his. Nash Lin continued, "What if I tell you that the item I intend to bid on is the 'Moana Core' necklace?" At this revelation, everyone was momentarily stunned. The Moana Core? The showstopper of this auction, the Moana Core necklace made of a noble heart-shaped blue diamond surrounded by white diamonds? Coming back to their senses, everyone laughed. "You, in your shabby clothes which are worth less than two hundred dollars, want to bid on the 'Moana Core' necklace? Hahaha, are you trying to make me laugh?" Zheng Tao laughed heartily. The rest of them also had faces full of mockery. "Do you know how expensive the 'Moana Core' necklace is? The starting bid is at 400,000. Are you even worth that much yourself?" "Exactly, and that 400,000 is just the starting bid. The final price will at least be over a million. You're so poor your pockets jingle, and you're telling me you want to bid on this? I'd really laugh— what good would that do for you?" Reese Dong's eyes also filled with even more disdain for Nash Lin. "Do you really think that by saying you want to bid on the 'Moana Core' necklace, we would think any higher of you? Let me tell you, it's impossible. Nash Lin, this is the difference in our realms that nothing can bridge! Your behaviour only makes us laugh, to the utmost degree!" Nash Lin's gaze turned colder, and the corners of his mouth lifted even higher. "You don't believe me that much, so how about we make a bet today?" "How should we bet?" Reese Dong was not the least bit afraid. Nash Lin spoke again, "Bet on whether I can win the 'Moana Core' necklace today. If I can't get it, you can do whatever you want with me, but if I do, starting today, you will be my maid. You will have to do whatever I tell you to, without defying any of my orders! How about it, dare to wager?" At these words, everyone became furious. "With someone of your calibre, you want to take Reese as a maid, do you even deserve that?" "That's right, why don't you take a look in the mirror and see your own pathetic face. Do you think you can be Reese's master?" In response, Nash Lin just picked up the red wine on the table and took another sip, speaking indifferently, "Don't you all disbelieve that I can win the bid?" Hearing this, the room suddenly became silent. That seems right! With this kid's capability, it's impossible for him to win the 'Moana Core', so the request to be a maid doesn't matter at all because he can't possibly lose. Thinking this, Thaddeus Zheng spoke up. "Reese, bet with him. I'll help you when the 'Moana Core' goes up for auction." Others also started speaking up. "That's right, bet with him. Since you can't lose, there's nothing to be afraid of." Reese Dong, with a hint of anger, glared at Nash Lin and then said through gritted teeth, "Fine, I'll bet with you, but the conditions must change!" "Let's hear it." Nash Lin swirled his wine glass and spoke slowly. "If you lose, from now on, you must not come near Gwen, you must disappear from her sight forever," Reese Dong declared resolutely. "And if you lose?" "If I lose, I'll be your maid for one week!" "No, at least for half a month!" Nash Lin spoke coldly. Reese Dong gritted her teeth and said, "Half a month it will be. If I lose, I'll be your maid for half a month!" "Deal!" Nash Lin didn't waste any more words, put down his wine glass, and walked straight toward the seats in the venue. The venue was set up as a cocktail party, and the guests' seats during the auction were arranged similarly, with a small table in front of each seat, holding a number plate and refreshments. Nash Lin chose a seat in the front row and sat down. Reese Dong and the others also chose a seat not far from him, unwilling to be outdone. From behind, Karmen Feng, who had seen everything, felt an unstoppable respect for Nash Lin, like the waters of the Yellow River, endless. "My Brother Nash is worthy of being my Brother Nash, he provoked such a beautiful woman with just a few words to bet with him, to be his maid — awesome! He's truly a role model of our generation! Now to see if he has the money to follow through!"
