Reborn with Consumption System

"Fuck!"

Dan Zihao's head buzzed with anger as he slammed his hand on the table, ready to erupt in a torrent of curses, but a single icy glance from Han Lie instantly calmed him down.

May my next life... what comes after that again?

He hadn't memorized the scripture, but he remembered the feeling of listening to a lunatic reciting it.

It was a fear tinged with the stench of urine.

Immediately, he changed his tune indignantly, "A new car with such great handling for just one million is practically a steal, okay? And my license plate is local; do you think that's easy to get?"

This abrupt shift nearly gave everyone whiplash.

In fact, it was a definite bargain. A top-spec RS7 with less than 5,000 kilometers on it could sell for over 1.4 million second-hand, especially since it was this year's latest high-performance model.

However, Han Lie still didn't want to let Dan Zihao off so easily.

So, he lazily retorted, "The most I can offer is 800,000. Otherwise, ask someone else, alright? Or next time, bring enough cash and don't embarrass yourself like this at the table."

Dan Zihao was so furious he nearly shattered his teeth from clenching them.

"My car cost nearly 2 million on the road!"

Brother Lie threw up his hands. "What's that got to do with me? I'm not short of cars to drive... Just 800,000. Take it or leave it. If not, get lost!"

Dan Zihao was truly at his wit's end, tossing his car keys in front of Han Lie.

"It's collateral for you, but I'll personally take it back later!"

Well, commendable courage.

「Half an hour later」

Dan Zihao was muttering to himself in a daze, "How could this happen? How could this happen..."

He wanted to wager something else in a desperate struggle, but Han Lie was no longer accepting bets.

Having dealt with him to this extent, my anger has been vented. It's time to stop before going too far.

Han Lie tossed the car keys back and scoffed, "Cut it out. Whatever you're thinking of betting, Daddy's not playing anymore. Do I look like I need your pathetic scraps? Hilarious!

"Daddy won't bully you, though. Take your car keys back. Come up with 800,000 within a week, and the car is still yours.

"If you can't scrape the money together, I'll slap you every time I see you. And don't you dare come crying to me about the pain!

"All these bosses are watching. So, what's it going to be? Out with it!"

Before Dan Zihao could utter a word, Ma Ke and the others started showering Han Lie with flattery.

"Han Shao is so magnanimous!"

"Righteous! Truly righteous! Little Dan, aren't you going to thank Brother Lie?"

"Do you see now? Han Shao is a bigger man; he doesn't hold grudges over petty mistakes. He just wants to teach you a lesson. Hurry up, apologize, and take your car keys back!"

My, Brother Lie was truly a benevolent soul.

But the humiliation wasn't over just yet.

Han Lie pushed the chips towards Wang Xiaotian with a beaming smile and said, "Deduct my initial capital; the rest is all winnings. Convert it to cash and load it all onto my room card.

"From now on, all suite service fees, cigarettes, alcohol, meals, and massages go on the card. When you guys come next time, just use my name. Consider it my treat for everyone.

"It's just a bit of pocket change. Only these two clowns would make such a big deal out of it. Boring!"

WHOA!

Every single person present was completely stunned.

Excluding the car, that pile of chips was worth over a million.

To simply load it all onto a room card for meals and expenses—what kind of unbelievable flex was that?!

Han Lie pulled off that flex so masterfully, everyone was utterly in awe.

Fang Tongzhi, who had always considered himself a significant figure, and Liu Yingjun, who had always prided himself on being the most daring spender, looked at each other, speechless.

This guy was on another level of badass. In his presence, who else even qualified to be called 'Bro'?

When it came to spending money, they were all just fucking amateurs in comparison...

****

Diarrhea again, when it was already better before.

Damn it, there goes the first vaccine shot, and the plan to go to Beijing for treatment has to be postponed.
