Chapter 324: Utter Frustration!
Luo Qingyi said coldly, "Director Zhang, you'd better think it through. Do you know who I, Luo Qingyi, am?"
If she really had to streak in Jinling, Zhang Haoyuan wouldn't be able to escape the fallout either!
Zhang Haoyuan said indifferently, "Miss Luo is a lady, so streaking in public would naturally be indecent."
"But, this bet cannot just be declared void without consequence, can it? Wouldn't that be grossly unfair to Mr. Qin? Even if Miss Luo does not want to streak, she must propose a stake of equivalent value!"
Ye Wujie thought for a moment, then said, "That's possible!"
"Qin Jiang, I'll add ten billion to your offer. With that, we can consider the matter settled."
Qin Jiang sneered, "Ten billion? Are you joking? Nowadays, Jiangge Group makes more than that in sales daily. Or is Miss Luo's streaking only worth ten billion? Fine, I'll give you back two hundred billion and Luo Qingyi, you can run two hundred extra laps! How about that?"

"Qin Jiang, you're going too far!" Luo Qingyi was almost in tears, furious at how despicable he was!
That was such an overstatement!
Could he be any more disgusting?
Qin Jiang spread his hands and said, "Isn't that fair? Ten billion to forgive one streak, so for two hundred billion I am letting you run two hundred more laps. It makes perfect sense."
Luo Qingyi's lips were bitten until they bled!
She took a deep breath and said coldly, "What do you want?"
"Compensate with an extra hundred billion!" Qin Jiang stated indifferently, "Not a penny less."
He knew that Luo Qingyi would never agree to streak, Ye Wujie would never let it happen, and even Zhang Haoyuan wouldn't want to see such a spectacle.
So, instead of insisting on Luo Qingyi's streaking, it was better to have her pay up and make a handsome profit out of her!
"A hundred billion?" Luo Qingyi trembled with rage, exclaiming, "You're asking for the moon!"
"Two hundred billion!" Qin Jiang said coldly.
"You..." Luo Qingyi was nearly driven mad. Was this guy jacking up the price on the spot?
Qin Jiang paid no attention to her near-breakdown expression, slowly uttering, "Three..."
"Stop, stop, stop!!!" Luo Qingyi roared, "That settles it! Two hundred billion!"
She shook all over with rage, her entire body trembling uncontrollably.
In the blink of an eye, she had lost three hundred billion today.
Even for the Ye Family, with its substantial business, this kind of lavish loss was unsustainable! This time, the Luo Family elders were likely going to curse her to death.
Only then did Qin Jiang smile, "Couldn't you have just agreed earlier? Now you've thrown in an extra hundred billion for nothing!"
"Then I must thank you both!"
"Mr. Ye, one hundred billion, Miss Luo, three hundred billion, not a dime less!"
Ye Wujie's face turned as black as coal, but reneging on a bet in full view of the public was out of the question for someone of his stature as Mr. Ye, so he had no choice but to transfer one hundred billion to Qin Jiang.
Luo Qingyi was in a tough position; she simply didn't have the vast sum of three hundred billion to hand over.
"Could I... owe it for now?" Luo Qingyi hesitated for a while before she spoke up.
Qin Jiang shook his head, "No credit."
He said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "Miss Luo, I gave you a choice: either run three hundred laps in public or pay back three hundred billion. It's up to you."
Luo Qingyi clenched her teeth, "I don't have that much money!"
"Alright, Old Ghost Xu, strip her!" Qin Jiang ordered emotionlessly with a wave of his hand.
Old Ghost Xu hesitated, then gritting his teeth, said, "Miss Luo, you should really think this through!"
Luo Qingyi bit back, "Qin Jiang, don't push people too far. I can give you an IOU!"
"Not negotiable." Qin Jiang shook his head, "If you don't have the money, then what's the point of betting? Aren't you the all-powerful heiress of the Luo family who can crush me with the flick of a wrist? How come you don't have the cash?"
The barrage of sarcasm from Qin Jiang made Luo Qingyi's face darken further, as if she had been slapped across the face, experiencing a level of humiliation she had never felt in over two decades of life!
