Zi Yi continued listening to a few other conversations. They were either looking down on him or they planned to make it so that he could not enter the finals.

Zi Yi sneered. “Do they honestly think my cars are something that they can tamper with if they want to?”

Lu Jingye said, “Some people are planning to go with underhanded methods. There’s a need to guard against them.”

“No worries. | installed a special feature on the car. It will emit protective light waves when other cars approach. Those who wish to crash against him will bounce off instead.”

Lu Jingye nodded his head approvingly. “Very good.”

He then pressed a button on his wristwatch and a virtual screen appeared.

‘While he was operating the watch, he said, “Since that’s the case, let’s open a bet.”

Zi Yi looked at the platform that formed quickly and she planned to bet five billion.

Lu Jingye stopped her. “Bet 500 million first and slowly add on later.”

“why?”

“It’s about casting a long line in order to catch a big fish. We’ll stimulate those people first.”

During the previous competition Zi Yi participated in, they had won too much, and now that Zi Yiis only placing such a small bet, there will definitely be some big players who will place bets to provoke her and continue raising her bets.

Zi Yi nodded her head and bet 500 million.

‘As soon as the bets for Zhou Shiyu were opened, those who were spectating the competition had all noticed it.

“Sure enough, Boss Zi has placed a bet.”

“She only bet 500 million?”

“She had betted such a huge amount of money the previous time but is only betting 500 million this time? It seems like she’s not very optimistic about her driver.”

“However, 500 million is not a small sum. In that case, I’ll bet that her racer loses.”

“This person won so much last time and yet, she’s only betting such a small amount? Try to find a way to get money out of her hands.”

Very soon, the bets against Zhou Shiyu increased.

Just then, the robot standing next to Zhou Shiyu said to him, “The boss has already placed a bet for you.”

A flash of light streaked past his eyes as he thought that she still had high expectations for him.

He purposely asked in a casual tone, “How much did she bet?”

“Master betted 500 million that you will win.”

Just when Zhou Shiyu was about to feel happy…

The robot continued to say, “To date, those that bets on your loss are at 3.5 billion.”

Zhou Shiyu’s expression broke down at his words. He clenched his fists, as if trying his very best to control his emotions.

The robot consoled him. “As long as you win first place in the competition, you and the boss will win a huge sum of money.”

Zhou Shiyu’s expression was livid for quite some time before he gnashed his teeth and said. “Tell Boss Zi that I will, certainly, win.”

That person must be trying to brush me off!

Having said that, he turned around and made his way towards his racing car.

‘When Zi Yi received word from the robot, she laughed out loud. “This proud boy must be thinking that I’m not paying any importance to him. Right now he’s preparing to win the first place and give me a huge slap across the face.”

Having said that, she added. “Well, I like getting slapped across the face.”

Lu Jingye looked at Zi Yi who deliberately said nothing else and raised his hand to stroke her head.

It’s fine as long as she’s happy.

Zi Yi suddenly asked, “Ah Jing, do you want to place some bets too?”

“Yep. I’ll place my bets after the amount betting his loss surpasses 5 billion.”

Zi Yi nodded her head and would occasionally add hundreds of millions every once in a while.

When she increased her bets to 3 billion, the side that betted on Zhou Shiyu’s loss had soared to 6.5 billion.

Lu Jingye started to place his bet then.

In one go, he had placed a 1.5 billion bet, causing a group of whales, who were behind the scenes, to get excited.

Soon, the betting amount had exceeded the amount that was allowed in racing competitions and the government started to intervene.

Asa result, there were more people starting to add their bets.

In the later parts, Lu Jingye added another 1.5 billion.

In total, Zi Yi placed bets that amounted to 5 billion.

At the same time, the side that betted on Zhou Shiyu’s loss had exceeded 10 billion.

Everyone was just waiting for the competition to start.

‘The racing competition started under everyone’s watchful gazes.

Zi Yi had personally modified Zhou Shiyu’s car. Except for that she had not increased the maximum speed to thousands, no other racing cars were able to match his car in other aspects.

Not to mention that there was nothing to say about Zhou Shiyu’s skills after he had undergone hellish training for the past few months.

Many people started to panic when they saw how good his skills were and there were some who started to have thoughts of cheating.

‘When one of the racing cars was about to crash Zhou Shiyu’s car into the railing, and before everyone could react, the former car had unexpectedly crashed against the railing instead.

After the crashing sounds were heard, the car flipped over and crashed against another car.

Boom!

Itwas a shocking sight.

Without any surprise, the results of the competition made Zi Yi and Lu Jingye earn a huge sum of money.

It was soon time for the bar to operate and welcome guests.

The news of people pretending to be officials to cause trouble in the Futuristic Bar was soon spread throughout the entire street. Those people ended up getting beaten by the robots and dragged away by officers.

In particular, the news of Zi Yi having a competition in drinking with the young masters and young ladies was displayed on the large screen outside of the bar very early on.

It was originally snowing heavily today and there was not much of a crowd.

However, as everyone spread the news around, the street was even more lively than usual.

The majority of the spectators here were all standing outside of Futuristic Bar and waiting to watch the drama.

‘When a luxury car drove down the street, the surrounding spectators were all excited and the voices of discussion reached an unprecedented height.

“They’re here, they’re here. That group of young masters and young ladies are here!”

“To think that so many high-society young masters and young ladies are here today. Are they planning to send Boss Zi to the hospital from over drinking?”

“Theard that all the robots in Boss Zi’s bar are good at drinking. It’s not known who will be the one going to the hospital when the time comes.”

“But speaking of which, who do you think had sent those people who were disguised as officials?”

“Is there still a need to ask? Boss Zi had called for these young masters and young ladies here for a reason.”

“Haha… there’s going to be a good show to watch tonight!”

Those who were here for the drama became even more excited as they chatted.

Arow of luxury cars parked outside Zi Yi’s bar. In the end, the parking lots of the bars left and right of Futuristic Bar were all occupied by them.

After the group of young masters and young ladies alighted from their cars, all of them met outside of Futuristic.

One of the men who had piercings flicked up his collar and shook it, while he said in a mocking voice, “Some people don’t have any sense of self-awareness. Everyone, there’s no need to be polite tonight. ‘d like to see what they can possibly do to us.”

“The only thing she can do now is to compete with us in drinking. It just so happens that I’ve never had a drink with her man before and I’d like to see how his capacity for liquor is tonight. Haha.”

‘Those who came today were another group of young masters and young ladies whose family background was lower than that of the eight aristocratic families.

‘The young masters and young ladies of the eight aristocratic families had been taken care of by Zi Yi and Lu Jingye in the past. Even if Lu Jingye had fallen from grace right now, they dared not easily take action themselves.

However, for these people to be causing trouble in Zi Yi’s bar, they must have also contributed to a portion of it behind the scenes.

It could be said that these people were here as the front.

Right now, the group of young masters and young ladies were about to fight it out with Zi Yi and Lu Jingye over their capacity in drinking.

Those from the eight aristocratic families were all gathered at another place, and as they watched the live recording, which was transmitted by the recording devices that the other group of young masters and young ladies had with them, there was no need to mention how excited they were..
