Chapter 57

Lin Yi won with ease, his style so cool and smooth. +

The audience who had placed their bets sighed one after another. Except for Chen Long and a couple of speculators, everyone had bet on the Muay Thai fighter winning.

After all, Lin Yi didn’t look like he had any remarkable skills.

The casino was overjoyed. Although Lin Yi and Chen Long each bet ten million, more people had bet on the Muay Thai fighter, so they made even more money!

"Lin Zi, I didn’t see that coming! You’re really amazing!"

Lin Yi smiled as he walked off the stage, and Jiang Ren immediately gave him a thumbs up.

Chen Long also gave him an appreciative smile, still somewhat surprised. He hadn’t expected Lin Zi to be so agile, jumping so high and so far in mid-air!

And so fast!

Wang Lelè looked at Lin Yi with curiosity and a hint of admiration. She had to admit, at this moment, Lin Yi was very cool!

Lin Yi smiled and said, "My godfather dedicated his whole life to traditional martial arts. Seeing that guy look down on them, I couldn’t help but teach him a lesson."

Chen Long, Jiang Ren, and Wang Lelè were enlightened. So he learned traditional martial arts from his godfather? How impressive!

At this moment, the club’s manager, Zhang, walked over, handed Lin Yi a card, and said with a smile, "I didn’t expect Mr. Lin to be so skilled. Your membership card is ready. You’re welcome to come here anytime. If you’re interested in a boxing match, I can arrange it for you."

Lin Yi took the membership card and shook his head with a smile, "I don’t have the habit of boxing. I just got carried away this time. By the way, what’s the membership fee for the club?"

"Friends introduced by Mr. Chen, how could we charge you?" Manager Zhang quickly said, not forgetting to flatter Chen Long.

He was also enlightened. If someone came with Mr. Chen, Young Master Jiang, and Miss Wang, they couldn’t be just ordinary people. Could they be another young master who came to box?

He didn’t really have much hope, but this Young Master Lin was indeed very skilled.

Lin Yi chatted and laughed with Chen Long, Jiang Ren, and Wang Lelè for a while before leaving the boxing club called "Peace Club."

This place was anything but peaceful.

As Lin Yi left, he gave it a bad review.

Chen Long, Jiang Ren, and Wang Lelè seemed to be busy people. With the New Year approaching, they had many social engagements and dinners. After leaving the Peace Club, they all went their separate ways.

Lin Yi had originally wanted to treat Brother Long to a meal and thank him, but he could only wait until after the New Year.

He also planned to go home for the New Year.

As a man of action, Lin Yi didn’t even return to his rented apartment. He drove straight from the city of Hai to his hometown, H City in Dongshan Province.

With such developed transportation, it was only a ten-hour drive.

Although it was already late at night when he arrived home, his mother was overjoyed.

Lin Yi came from a single-parent family. His father had passed away due to illness, and his sister was already married. His mother usually lived alone.

Lin Yi had tried several times to persuade his mother to find a companion. She had tried a few "blind dates," but found them unsuitable and lost patience, deciding not to look anymore.

He declined his mother’s offer to cook for him in the middle of the night, coaxed her back to bed, and went to his room to lie down, feeling a mix of emotions.

A few months ago, he was just an ordinary recent college graduate.

Now, he had transformed completely, a stark contrast!

The money and material desires he had once pursued had become trivial in just a few months.

Now, he was as rich as a nation, but didn’t know what to pursue anymore.

His mind was full of wild thoughts about martial arts, magical treasures, demons, and ghosts...

It took Lin Yi a while to calm down. Being a streamer was his big business!

He also understood that if he didn’t reveal his time-traveling, his streaming career would only grow to a few thousand or maybe ten thousand viewers.

Like Chen He from "Running Man," who became a game streamer, he would only have a few hundred thousand viewers.

To reach five billion viewers was simply... unimaginable.

But once he revealed his time-traveling, it would attract attention from all sectors. The magic of time-traveling and the resources of different worlds would drive countless nations and forces to madness.

But it wasn’t the right time yet!

Not to mention, once exposed, his mother and sister’s safety would be at risk.

He himself wasn’t worried; he could hide in another world. Unless those nations and forces could travel to his world to catch him, they could only watch helplessly.

Lin Yi thought about whether he should bring his mother and sister to another world, settle them down, and then try to reveal his time-traveling. That way, he would surely make a big splash and gain a surge in popularity!

But the "Deer and the Cauldron" world and the "Story of the Concubine" world weren’t safe places.

Lin Yi couldn’t guarantee the safety of his mother and sister. The "Deer and the Cauldron" world was full of dangers, and in the "Story of the Concubine" world, he had emptied the Qing Dynasty’s treasury, likely making him the most wanted criminal in the world!

He wondered if he had implicated Xiaoyan and Zhiwei?

Lin Yi couldn’t help but sigh. He was still too young and impulsive, not considering the consequences of his actions. Xiaoyan and Zhiwei would likely suffer because of his "Xiao Jian" identity.

Emperor Qianlong might impulsively execute Xiaoyan!

He was still young!

Lin Yi, who had realized this belatedly, gave himself another lesson. After much thought, he decided that he couldn’t reveal his time-traveling yet. He needed to wait until everything was prepared before he could act confidently.

The next day.

Lin Yi had breakfast with his mother and chatted with her all morning, exaggerating about his stock trading and investments, using the Range Rover parked downstairs as proof.

His mother was completely taken aback. She never expected her son to be so capable, earning so much money just six months after graduation?

For a mother from an ordinary family, it was like a dream!

At noon, Lin Yi called his childhood friend "Ren Zhen" and invited him to come over for a meal.

Both families lived in the same neighborhood. They grew up in the same alley, and after the area was developed, they were both relocated.

Ren Zhen, unlike Lin Yi, attended a university in Dongshan Province and chose to return home to work after graduation.

He was an only child, unlike Lin Yi who had a sister, so he had to return home to take care of his mother. As the saying goes, "When parents are around, one should not travel far."

Ren Zhen was very happy to hear that Lin Yi had returned overnight and came over enthusiastically.

They had already talked on the phone the day before.

Lin Yi invited his childhood friend for two reasons: to catch up and to set up a network studio to manage the live streaming room and fan groups.

Since streaming was his big business, he wanted to develop it properly. He was no longer a small streamer with a few hundred viewers but a large streamer with thousands of followers!

He "hired" Ren Zhen with a high salary to help his childhood friend.

Since he wasn’t short of money, why be stingy?
