Wu Yihan suddenly felt sowhat at a loss.
He originally wasn't afraid of Xu Hao, but since Louise treated Xu Hao with so much respect and she was that guy's cousin, it caused him to also be filled with awe toward Xu Hao.
But now, the elders were all brimming with interest,
Xu Hao's capacity for alcohol was so incredible that, despite having drunk so much, he seed completely unaffected, which was quite unscientific.
They all knew that those who practiced martial arts could channel internal energy to expel the effects of alcohol, but that would leave their backs drenched with sweat. However, Xu Hao was only wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, and if there were any sweat on his back, it would be imdiately noticeable. At the mont, though, it appeared he wasn't sweating at all.
The dispute over the investnt cooperation was temporarily set aside, and everyone was more than happy to watch the excitent; thus, they encouraged more young people to compete with Xu Hao in drinking.
Li Chenggong laughed, "Tonight let's all have a good ti. Xu Xiao You, we old folks are very curious about just how much you can drink!"
Xu Hao laughed, "Probably... a thousand cups, not drunk, I guess."
"How is that possible? No one can withstand a thousand cups without getting drunk. Just the volu of liquid alone would be too much to handle."
"Yeah, I'm Zhou Dachui, and I'm the first to not believe it!" a rather rugged-looking man spoke up.
"Young people love to boast, that's normal. Besides, 'a thousand cups, not drunk' is just a figure of speech to describe soone who can really hold their liquor, who can actually drink a thousand cups! Wouldn't their bladder just burst?"
"Hahaha..."
Many of the younger attendees all expressed their disbelief. Xu Hao talking about being 'a thousand cups, not drunk', wasn't he just spouting nonsense?
Mao Jinxi looked disdainful as ever; Xu Hao was clearly talking out of his hat. Was 'a thousand cups, not drunk' sothing a person could actually achieve?
Chen Hai laughed, "If you want to know if Young Master Xu is telling the truth, why not verify it? Young Master Xu, is that okay?"
Xu Hao smiled. These people harbored no ill will; they just saw that he could hold his drink, so they wanted to test how good he really was. What a pity, they were all unaware that all the alcohol he consud was completely absorbed by the voracious Immortal Bone within him.
Thinking of this, Xu Hao laughed, "No problem, whoever wants to drink, let's drink, I plan to knock all of you out."
Mao Jinxi imdiately scoffed, "Xu Hao, anyone can shoot their mouth off, but there are at least fifty people here who want to drink with you. If you don't make each and every one of them hit the floor, then you have to give up the cooperation with Old Mr. Li."
Li Chenggong's expression changed slightly. Mao Jinxi's actions were sowhat underhanded.
Taking advantage of soone's predicant was not the act of a gentleman, and what people in high society cared about the most was face.
Moreover, Mao Jinxi was making this bet on the spot, effectively sidelining Li Chenggong, the main party concerned.
The older attendees looked on with smiles; Mao Jinxi was sowhat throwing himself into disarray. His move seed clever, but in actuality, it was a bad play, almost tantamount to alienating Li Chenggong.
Xu Hao was stunned for a mont, then laughed, "Since Third Young Master Mao has spoken, if I didn't accept this bet, wouldn't it seem as though the Xu Family has no one capable? I accept this bet. However, if I manage to knock out everyone under the age of forty, then you, Mao Jinxi, must roll out of Huadu imdiately, dare you?!"
Mao Jinxi imdiately felt out of breath. Xu Hao had made too harsh a condition, and his tone of speech was very unfriendly.
But at this point, many people already felt that Mao Jinxi was being sowhat excessive.
Soone spoke up, "I think this bet is good, it might settle the investnt dispute early. But whether this bet can continue or not still depends on Old Mr. Li's decision." Read ahead and get updates by visiting *.
Li Chenggong nodded slightly, "Since everyone is so interested, this old man will also mix in. To decide the investnt through this bet definitely won't work, but I can modify the content of the bet for you, let's make it a bet of ten billion Huaya Currency, whoever loses will pay the ten billion on the spot to the other party, how about that?"
Ten billion!
Everyone was instantly shocked.
Who ever heard of such a large bet?
Just a gamble, and it's for ten billion!
Xu Hao laughed, "Ten billion is just that, after nailing this project, the money to be made is much more than ten billion. I'll take the bet. I don't know about Third Young Master Mao, do you dare to bet this ten billion with ?"
Mao Jinxi's face kept changing, Xu Hao had truly accepted the billion-dollar bet!
If he didn't dare to bet, then he'd just be adding to the ridicule for no reason.
But if he dared to bet and he lost, his father would definitely kill him, strip him of all his rights in the Mao Family, and turn him from a high and mighty young master into an ordinary Mao Family mber!
Seeing Mao Jinxi hesitate, Xu Hao laughed, "What's wrong? Does the rich and powerful Third Young Master Mao not dare to bet? If you win, you might gain ten billion out of the blue. The Mao Family is supporting the Wu Family with twenty billion without any conditions; how much of that money could you get? If you don't dare to bet, then how can you hold your head high in Huadu after this?"
Chen Hai smacked his lips. Xu Hao clearly knew he could win, that's why he was goading Mao Jinxi. Yet Mao Jinxi was also unable to refute.
