Chapter 1704: Chapter 1598: Making Things Up
"Money really cos fast with this!" Song Yun whispered.
"Of course, gambling brings in money quickly, but nine tis out of ten, it’s fraudulent! And when we tally the chips later, if any fakes are found, it’s easy to trace them back to us. By then, they might just toss you into the sea to feed the sharks. So, we need to move fast and not get caught," the Queen said.
"Understood." Song Yun nodded, then shouted, "Haha, today my luck is really great!"
"Shen Zhou person?" Sam asked in fluent Chinese.
"Yes, haha, I just felt you had good luck and kept following your bets. I didn’t expect to win in just six tries!" Song Yun said happily.
Sam laughed and said, "Shouldn’t you buy
a drink then?"
"Of course, no problem." Song Yun patted his chest and said, "A drink is nothing, let’s go, I’ll buy you a bottle!"
"Hahaha, thank you." Sam laughed and said, "Shall we head to that bar over there?"
"Anywhere is fine, I’m happy today!" Song Yun laughed as he walked towards a bar nearby, while the Queen, with a gentle expression, took Song Yun’s arm, her eyes occasionally glancing at the platinum ring on his finger.
"Dear, since you’ve made money, when will you buy
a ring? I’ve always wanted one!" the Queen said coquettishly.
"Haha, a ring, that should be easy. I’ll definitely buy you one soday!" Song Yun said.
"Soday, soday, soday, you always say soday, hmph!" The Queen humd discontentedly, while Song Yun just chuckled without responding.
"Many of my friends have bought that ring, it’s only a little over five hundred thousand, won’t you buy it for ?" the Queen asked.
"I already said I’d definitely buy it for you soday!" Song Yun humd, saying nothing more.
Sam asked curiously, "A ring over five hundred thousand? Which one is it?"
"The Eternal Love limited edition released by Xiao Fu a few days ago. Oh, I’ve wanted it so badly!" the Queen said helplessly.
Sam smiled but didn’t respond.
Song Yun and Sam sat down at the bar, and Song Yun generously ordered a pricey bottle of imported wine, then started drinking with Sam.
During the period, the two introduced themselves. Song Yun claid his last na was Li but didn’t give his full na, while Sam stated that he went by Sam.
"By the way, I know quite a few Shen Zhou people, but soone as talented as Mr. Li, why haven’t I t you before?" Sam asked curiously.
"My family is in Europe. I’m considered an overseas Chinese," Song Yun said. "I haven’t been back in a long while, so naturally, Mr. Sam hasn’t t !" Song Yun said with a smile.
"Haha, Europe? I see, you must belong to the Li Family, right?" Sam asked.
"Oh? How do you know?" Song Yun asked curiously.
"Firstly, your last na is Li, and secondly, in Europe, the largest Chinese family is the Li Family. It’s easy to figure out." Sam said proudly.
"Haha, indeed, Mr. Sam, you’re really smart. Co, let’s drink to that." Song Yun toasted Sam, then asked, "By the way, Mr. Sam, what do you do?"
"? I just run so errands." Sam said casually, "Helping family business matters, running around all the ti, making a bit of hard-earned money."
"Hard-earned money? If your money is hard-earned, then ours truly is earned by risking our lives! Looking at those bodyguards beside you, each has an extraordinary aura. I’ve seen experts in Europe, and the bodyguards beside you, I’d guess their annual salary is in the tens of thousands, right?" Song Yun said.
"No, no, no, it’s three hundred and twenty thousand!" Sam said, "The total salary for these guys is three hundred and twenty thousand US dollars!"
"Wow, that high? Tsk, tsk, tsk, Mr. Sam, your hard-earned money is truly abundant!" Song Yun exclaid.
The Queen’s eyes lit up when she heard Sam ntion three hundred twenty thousand, staring at Sam. Sam looked up from his drink to see the Queen’s clearly interested eyes. His heart skipped a beat, but he showed no sign on his face as he asked, "Mr. Li, who is this lady?"
"This is my girlfriend, nad Shangguan Wan’er." Song Yun casually pulled a na from a Shen Zhou novel.
Evidently, Sam hadn’t read Shen Zhou novels before, so he didn’t know that the na Shangguan Wan’er had been overused in novels. He smiled and complinted, "The na is very nice, quite fitting with the lady’s appearance!"
"That’s right, excuse , I need to go to the restroom!" Song Yun said, standing up, offering apologies, and walked to the side.
The Queen didn’t follow him but sat by the bar, occasionally glancing at Sam.
"Miss Wan’er seems quite young?" Sam asked.
"I’m twenty-three this year." The Queen controlled her voice, making it sound elegant, but with a slightly flattering tone, "Mr. Sam, you truly are from a wealthy family."
"Haha, it’s nothing, my boss is the truly wealthy one, I’m just working for soone!" Sam said, then seed to think of sothing, "By the way, Miss Wan’er, I happen to have a friend working as a manager at Xiao Fu. If you need that Eternal Love, you can let
know, and I can get you a discount through my friend!"
"Alas, he won’t buy it for , and I’m not earning money myself, how can I afford it?" The Queen said helplessly.
"I didn’t take Mr. Li to be soone stingy, why won’t he buy it for you?" Sam asked.
"He’s not exactly stingy, but a large part of his money needs to be handed over to the family, and he only has a bit left for himself. Plus, he needs to run his business, socialize, oh well, n, I understand." Although the Queen spoke about understanding, her eyes were full of resentnt.
"Um, does Miss Wan’er really like that Eternal Love?" Sam asked.
"Of course I do, that ring is so beautiful!" The Queen’s eyes were full of envy, "Many of my friends have bought it, and it looks really nice on them!"
"If Miss Wan’er doesn’t mind, I can gift one to you." Sam said with a smile.
"Really?" The Queen said in surprise, but then her expression turned a bit dim, "I can’t accept your gift, we just t, and this gift is too expensive."
"If Miss Wan’er doesn’t want it, then you’re not treating
as a friend!" Sam said, "The greatest hope of my life is to see my friends live comfortably and easily. I’m considering you a good friend, and if you refuse, you’re not treating
as one!"
"This..." The Queen’s face was full of struggle.
"Here’s my business card, Miss Wan’er, if you decide you want it, you can call ." Sam pulled a card from his pocket and handed it to the Queen, whose hand he subtly touched, causing her cheeks to flush, but she showed no objection. Instead, she looked at Sam shyly and asked, "Um... Mr. Sam, he’s going to a concert later, can I call you?"
"Of course, you’re welco anyti!" Sam said with a smile.
