Next, people with a bit of status exchanged business cards with Lin Beifan to develop a relationship.
After all, this is someone even Huang Lao is optimistic about.
In the midst of everyone's praise, Lin Beifan pushed Ye Xingchen out with a numb face and said modestly: "Actually, I have no ability, I don't know anything about stones; all this is thanks to my brother! Without him, I couldn't have made that much money! He's doing a great job!"
Everyone admired Lin Beifan even more.
Look, this is the demeanor!
Look, this is the spirit!
Look, that's the measure!
Taking credit without being arrogant and not forgetting to bring along your loyal brothers!
This young man can do it!
In comparison, this bodyguard brother pales in comparison.
With a numb face, he stayed on the spot, as if his mother and father had died, and he couldn't even speak. What could such a person do?
Sure enough, the difference in character between people is evident!
The protagonist Ye Xingchen: "..."
At this time, someone frowned and looked at Ye Xingchen: "This person looks a little familiar, seems to have seen him somewhere..."
"Listening to you, I find that he does look a little familiar!"
"Who is he?"
...
Lin Beifan said proudly: "Of course he looks familiar because my brother is not only a bodyguard but also an internet celebrity! A very popular internet celebrity, commonly known as a big internet celebrity!"
"Internet celebrity? Who is it?"
"I still don't recognize him!"
...
"I'll give you a hint!" Lin Beifan said playfully, "You're so cheeky, I like it!"
Everyone suddenly realized.
"Oh~~ It's the undressing man, I almost didn't recognize him with his clothes on!"
"No wonder he seemed so familiar!"
"Mr. Lin, your bodyguard brother is really talented!"
"Dancing to death, haha!"
...
The protagonist Ye Xingchen: "Pfft!"
After making a lot of money and befriending Huang Lao, Lin Beifan and others left the casino in a happy mood.
"Meiniang, today we made a total of 490 million, plus the original 100 million, a total of 590 million; we should be able to do a lot of things, right?" Lin Beifan said proudly.
Liu Rumei was very excited: "Nearly 600 million yuan, a lot of things can be done, and many plans can be put on the agenda! Mr. Lin, you are so lucky today; you actually bought two large jadeites!"
"All of this was brought by Brother Ye!"
Lin Beifan patted Ye Xingchen on the shoulder proudly: "If it weren't for his suggestion to come here to gamble, I wouldn't have been able to open the 90 million stone! If it weren't for him helping me choose, I wouldn't have been able to open the 400 million stone and discover the peerless treasure!"
"He is my great man!"
"Without him, I wouldn't be where I am today!"
"Thank you, Brother Ye; I will definitely reward you when we get back!"
Lin Beifan spoke from the heart.
But these words of praise fell heavily on Ye Xingchen's heart, making him extremely uncomfortable, akin to being subjected to lingchi.
If time could be rewound, he would never have suggested coming here or helped pick stones.
You are so ungrateful!
"He? Forget it!" Liu Rumei pouted.
In her opinion, it was all luck; the blind cat had met a dead mouse.
Moreover, Ye Xingchen had performed poorly today.
As an entourage, representing Lin Beifan's appearance, he had shown no smile at all, maintaining a stiff demeanor, and had been unable to speak, appearing as silent as a statue.
In contrast, Lin Beifan had been very decent.
He danced with long sleeves and made friends.
In front of outsiders, he still maintained the face of his bodyguard, even when he lost several million.
Even after making money, he remained humble and did not forget to acknowledge his brother's contribution.
This changed her view of Lin Beifan a little bit.
This prodigal son is not worthless!
At this time, the protagonist Ye Xingchen said with a tired face: "Mr. Lin, I want to ask you for a half-day leave."
Lin Beifan was shocked: "Brother Ye, are you..."
"I drank too much alcohol last night, and my body is still very uncomfortable. If I want to ask for leave, I can rest well. I hope you can approve it!" Ye Xingchen found a reason.
In fact, he just wanted to go back and soothe his wounded heart.
This morning, everyone had laughed at him as a stripper, and this afternoon, he had made a lot of money with this same enemy.
His heart was hurt and tired; he needed to go back to heal.
Lin Beifan said thoughtfully: "Brother, you have worked hard! Go, go back and rest; I approve your leave."
"Thank you, President Lin!" Ye Xingchen left sadly, clutching his chest.
Only Liu Rumei pouted, feeling a little dissatisfied: "What's wrong with Ye Xingchen? He is a bodyguard and driver, and he is currently performing his duties and is responsible for your safety. How can he leave midway? What if something happens? This is unprofessional! Even if he has made meritorious deeds, he can't be arrogant because of your favor!"
"Don't say that about my brother Ye!" Lin Beifan waved his hand. "He's really too tired; it's been good enough that he held on until now. Let him rest! It's getting late; let's go!"
"Where?"
"Go to the hospital and visit Brother Xiao Chen!"
Soon after, they arrived at the hospital.
With a bouquet of pale flowers in hand, Lin Beifan walked into the ward with a heavy heart.
