Chapter 16: Betting
The fat man asked for a glass of juice from the waiter, and then drank it by himself, really implementing Cheng Chuyao's principle of not speaking, and actually put Ou Xiangfei aside as a matter of course. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Ou Xiangfei wanted to set up this fat man's words to see what this fat man was about, but who knew that people ignored him, and he didn't have a single superfluous word. "Well, Miss Cheng, why didn't you go to the venue just now?"
"Oh, I don't really like the vibe, and I'm not very interested in technology and stuff, so it's better here." Cheng Chuyao is telling the truth, she is really not interested in scientific and technological inventions or anything, not to mention that there are a lot of scientific and technological freaks and old men there.
"Also, how many people like Miss Leng Xiling can become a top-ranked scientist in the Federation at the age of eighteen, and they can also become a disciple of Teacher Osmond, the number one science madman in the Federation." Ou Xiangfei tapped his fingers lightly, "I heard that Miss Leng also brought a new invention today, and the protagonist of this science and technology conference must be Miss Leng." ”
"That is, Sister Leng is the proud daughter of the sky, a rare genius in the Federation, and the protagonist of today's conference is none other than Sister Leng." Cheng Chuyao's tone revealed a sense of pride, and it was not difficult to see that her relationship with Miss Leng in Ou Xiangfei's mouth was extraordinary.
Seeing that the fat man drank up a glass of juice and then took another glass, the corners of Ou Xiangfei's eyes twitched, did this fat man really think that this banquet was a buffet? If Ou Xiangfei hadn't recognized the guest card hanging around the fat man's neck, he would have thought that the fat man had sneaked in from outside to eat and drink. Hey, wait, guest card?
"This... Brother Li. Ou Xiangfei called the fat man, who knew that the fat man took another snack out of nowhere and stuffed it into his mouth. Ahem, Brother Li? Ou Xiangfei coughed heavily.
Seeing this, Cheng Chuyao pestled the fat man again, and the fat man was in pain, "Hey, this snack is really good." ”
"Didn't you hear people call you?" Cheng Chuyao leaned into the fat man's ear and said hatefully.
"Huh? Oh! Brother Ou called me? The fat man swallowed what was in his mouth and poured another sip of juice.
Ou Xiangfei really felt that he couldn't stand this fat man, how could he see how this fat man wanted to come forward and beat him violently. "Since Brother Li is a guest, why don't you go to the science and technology conference and come to the banquet here?"
"Huh? I wanted to participate... Forehead. "The fat man felt that the soft flesh of his ribs was pinched, and he unscrewed off a piece of his meat if he didn't agree with him." I just came over hungry to eat something, and came to my house Chu Yao by the way, and besides, did anyone rule that the guests of the conference could not come to the banquet? ”
The fat man almost didn't think about it when he was in a hurry. Ou Xiangfei was angry when he heard this, and Cheng Chuyao blushed when he heard it. 'How did this fat man get so quick to get his hands dirty?' This fat man must not be a serious person, so I won't bother with him this time. Cheng Chuyao's face was slightly red, and she thought to herself.
******, this fat man is still shameless. Wait for Lao Tzu to find out your details, and see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill you, a dead fat man! Ou Xiangfei was resentful in his heart.
"Naturally, the guests of the conference can participate in the banquet, and there is even a special seat for the participants of the conference." Ou Xiangfei explained.
The people in the science and technology conference are all science and technology nerds and scientists, how can a group of older people mix with this group of wealthy men and women, so a place is specially prepared for them.
"It seems that Brother Li is very interested in scientific and technological inventions, and we can communicate when we have time." Ou Xiangfei showed a rather sincere look.
"Hehe, I'm actually just idle and bored to go around, and my interest in scientific and technological inventions is average." The fat man waved his hand, and his self-humble appearance made Ou Xiangfei angry.
Ou Xiangfei was thinking about how to deal with this fat man's words next, but who knew that the fat man took the initiative to speak. "Wow, you... You need to have 300,000 Star Coins for this Etan, right? ”
Ou Xiangfei saw that all the attention of the fat man was on the necklace he was wearing, so he took off the necklace, "This Etan Orb was auctioned off from the auction by me for 1 million star coins, the Etan gem can only be formed under the unique geographical and climatic conditions on Etan, and the yield is very low, not to mention that the Etan Orb is made with such a high fineness, in fact, I took advantage of it, otherwise I would not be able to get less than 1.5 million star coins." ”
In fact, the fat man had only heard of the Etan's Orb, and he only knew that this kind of Orb was a sky-high price, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive. The reason why the fat man reacted so much to Ou Xiangfei's Etan Orb was actually because the fat man had seen a necklace exactly like this Etan Orb from the stall in front of his house, so he spent 45 star coins, and he still has it on his body.
Cheng Chuyao looked at the Etan Orb displayed by Ou Xiangfei, his eyes were slightly distracted, Ou Xiangfei saw that Cheng Chuyao was very interested in this Etan Orb, so he patted his chest and said, "Does Miss Cheng like it?" Please rest assured, I, Ou Xiangfei, will definitely help Miss Cheng buy a better Etan Orb, so that I will be worthy of Miss Cheng's appearance and temperament. ”
"Ah, Ou Shao is polite, I will buy it myself if I need it, don't bother Ou Gongzi." Cheng Chuyao lowered her head, as if she had some grievances. The fat man is also very strange, this Cheng Chuyao obviously has an unusual family background, why is there not even a piece of expensive jewelry on his body except for this evening dress.
Ou Xiangfei was very proud, and now he could be regarded as fighting back against the incompetent fat man. Cheng Chuyao likes the Etan Orb, can you, a dead fat man, get it? You don't look like a rich lord when you look like you're dressed.
Seeing this, the fat man put his arm around Cheng Chuyao's shoulder, "Do you want it, I'll get you a real one when I go back, it's much better than this." Cheng Chuyao just wanted to get out of the fat man's hand, but who knew that this sentence made Cheng Chuyao not understand what he wanted to do.
"What do you mean by that?" Ou Xiangfei also saw that the fat man had something to say.
"Can Brother Beat lend us the orb?" The fat man reached out to Ou Xiangfei to borrow the Etan's orb.
Ou Xiangfei didn't know what the fat man wanted to do, so he simply handed the Etan Orb to the fat man. The fat man took the orb and looked left and right, put the orb to his ear and listened, and then returned it to Ou Xiangfei.
Ou Xiangfei took the Etan Orb, and he didn't know what the fat man had in mind. The fat man had a serious expression on his face, and said to Ou Xiangfei, "Brother Ou, I have to tell you bad news now." After that, the fat man pretended to be speechless and stopped.
"Brother Li has something to say, just say it directly." Ou Xiangfei also wanted to see what the hell this fat man was doing.
The fat man still looked like he couldn't speak, "Brother Ou, you Etan Gem... It's an imposter! The fat man held back for a long time, and finally said such a sentence.
"What?!"
"Huh?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Ou Xiangfei was annoyed, how could this fat man be such nonsense. Cheng Chuyao also pestled the fat man, signaling that what the fat man said was a bit too much.
Who knew that the fat man just shook his head, "This Etan's Orb is really fake, I can vouch for it." Otherwise, let's make a bet. ”
"Bet? You say, bet on what! Ou Xiangfei was enduring a breath of anger, he wanted to see how long this fat man would be tricked, if he provoked himself, he would do this fat man now.
"Hmm... In this way, if I win, you swear in public that you will never pester my family Chu Yao again. ”
"What if I win?" Ou Xiangfei's right hand clenched into a fist, waiting for the fat man's words.
"Then my life will be yours." The fat man leaned back to the sofa, looking relaxed and not looking like he was gambling with his life at all.
When Cheng Chuyao heard this, he hurriedly put it in the fat man's ear and said urgently, "Are you crazy, don't you want to die?" Ou Xiangfei's Etanorb is certified by the auction house, and it is impossible to be fake. ”
"Don't worry, I have my own way." The fat man calmed Cheng Chuyao for a while, and then said to Ou Xiangfei, "How about it, does Brother Ou dare to bet?" ”
"Dare, why not?" Ou Xiangfei slapped the Etan Orb on the table, "Bet on it." ”
"Hey, Brother Ou, aren't you afraid of smashing your Etanorb?" The fat man said with a distressed face next to him. "Joke, how can the Etan's Orb be so easily destroyed!"
"That's... Who do we ask for certification? Cheng Chuyao said that she would prefer to push the Orb certification to tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so that the fat man can survive today and hide.
"In less than three minutes, the tech conference is coming to an end. Mr. Dick is not only a physicist, but also a master jeweler, as you should all have heard! Ou Xiangfei continued, "We'll wait for Mr. Dick to come out. ”
Cheng Chuyao secretly said that it was not good, and there was no way to do it now. Mr. Dick's meticulous style is known to all who know him. It was obviously impossible to ask for Mr. Dick's help. Cheng Chuyao was anxiously thinking of countermeasures, and the fat man was spread out on the back of the sofa indifferently, waiting for that Mr. Dick.
Sure enough, three minutes passed, and many people poured out of the other passage leading to the banquet hall. These people include journalists and conference guests. These guests look very similar to fat people in casual dress, but they are all well-known scientific researchers.
A young man squeezed through the crowd. This young man is tall, and with the experience of a fat man looking at people, this person must have practiced, and it can even be said that he has killed people. This person can't control the murderous aura on his body very well, just by looking at his eyes, the fat man can simply determine that this person is not small.
"Yo, Cheng Shao is here?"
"Well, Ou Shao." The man simply replied, which was regarded as a greeting. Ou Xiangfei is not surprised by this, this person is such a character.
Seeing this man, Cheng Chuyao frowned. The fat man whispered to Cheng Chuyao and asked, "Who is this person?" ”
It doesn't matter if the fat man doesn't ask, this man really has a lot of background. This person's name is Cheng Yingjie, yes, he is in the same family as Cheng Chuyao. Cheng Yingjie is Cheng Chuyao's cousin, and although Cheng Yingjie's father and Cheng Chuyao's father are brothers, they do not deal with each other, and even oppose each other everywhere.
"Who are you?" Cheng Yingjie saw the fat man next to Cheng Chuyao.
A chilling aura was released from Cheng Yingjie's body. The people around seemed to feel the strangeness here, and when they saw Cheng Yingjie, they hid away as if they had seen a bad star. The fat man heard Cheng Chuyao say that his cousin was a military cadet and was about to graduate and be sent to the front line. It is said that Cheng Yingjie has gone out on a lot of tasks, and there must be dozens or hundreds of lives in his hands.
"Haha, my own family, my own family, I'm Chu Yao's boyfriend." The fat man said and stretched out his hand to Cheng Yingjie.
Cheng Chuyao was about to stop him, but who knew that Cheng Yingjie had already stretched out his hand, "Oh? Chu Yao's sister has already had a boyfriend, and I really haven't heard of it. ”
As Cheng Yingjie was talking, the fat man had already noticed that a huge force was leaking towards the fat man through Cheng Yingjie's arm.
