Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife

Nicholas lowered his head slightly. He knew the owner of this bank card was no ordinary person, but a supreme VIP of the Swiss Bank. Even he, as the person in charge of its Chinese operations, had no authority to check how much money the owner had deposited. However, he was certain that a mere fifty billion was pocket change for the card’s owner. Otherwise, he would not have personally made the trip to play along with these martial siblings in their little show. Who else commanded such a privilege?

Seeing the dumbfounded looks on everyone’s faces, Chen Xiao wore a nonchalant smile. Truth be told, this feeling of showing off isn’t half bad.

He emotionlessly inserted the bank card into a slot connected to the computer.

BEEP. "Account activated. Please enter your password."

Chen Xiao entered the password.

As soon as he did, a string of digits appeared on the screen before him. One, two, three... eleven, twelve! A full twelve digits! And the first one was an eight!

There’s over eight hundred billion in this card! He couldn’t help but gasp. He knew the old man was rich, but he had never imagined he was *this* rich. However, he suppressed the surge of excitement in his heart, determined not to let it show. If Lu Rugao and the others found out I have over eight hundred billion, they’d be scared witless and wouldn’t dare continue to oppose me.

Just then, the computer issued another prompt, "Please select the desired service."

Chen Xiao directly selected the transfer option.

"Please begin the transfer."

"Transfer successful. Fifty billion will be sent and will arrive in the recipient’s account within three minutes."

After the mechanical voice faded, the hall fell into absolute silence. There really was fifty billion in cash on that card!

Chen Xiao casually pulled the card out and swept his gaze over the ashen-faced crowd. "A mere fifty billion? Is that supposed to be a lot?"

Lu Rugao’s pretty face turned incredibly gloomy. She had exhausted her efforts and swallowed her pride to organize this fundraising conference, only for a bunch of small-time players to scrounge up less than fifty billion. Meanwhile, Chen Xiao had raised seventy billion with just two of his senior sisters, completely crushing her. For her, this was an utter and complete humiliation.

The others were also shocked, having never expected Chen Xiao to possess such powerful backing—let alone have the head of the Swiss Bank’s Chinese operations provide him with personal service. No one else present, including Lu Rugao, had ever received such treatment.

Nicholas watched Chen Xiao finish, then packed up the computer and bowed to Ye Hongyi and Chen Xiao. "Miss Ye, Mr. Chen, my task is complete. I shall take my leave now."

With that, he backed away slowly before turning to depart.

Ye Hongyi then scanned the room proudly. "Comparing wealth? You’re all amateurs!"

Chen Xiao was exasperated. This Second Senior Sister of his really knows how to put on an act, showing off with money their Master gave him.

Lu Rugao took a deep breath and stubbornly retorted, "What’s fifty billion? We’re just using some of our assets to play this game, while you two have to risk your entire fortune to play with us! Honestly... it’s quite pathetic."

"The two of you combined only managed to scrape together seventy billion. You think you can bring down me, Lu Rugao, with that little? I haven’t even played my real trump card yet!"

The moment she finished speaking, Su Linger stood up and declared, word by word, "I, Su Linger, on behalf of the Su Family of Capital City, will lend thirty billion to Lu Rugao!"

Hearing this amount, the crowd was once again stunned. Su Linger was not the head of the Su Family and was considered rather mediocre among her generation. For her to be able to produce thirty billion to support Lu Rugao undoubtedly meant this was the will of the Su Family itself.

A small smile touched Lu Rugao’s lips as she stared at Chen Xiao. "Now I have eighty billion on my side!"

At the same time, Murong Lin slowly spoke up. "Acting on the wishes of my family’s elders, I am willing to invest twenty billion in Miss Lu to help her through this difficult time!"

Another twenty billion!

"As expected of the Huaxi Murong Family! What a grand gesture!"

"The Murong Family truly is a top-tier family in Huaxi. Their foundation probably isn’t far off from the Five Clans of Kyoto."

"Of course. Don’t forget, the Murong Family has always been backed by a titan. As long as that person stands, the Murong Family will only continue to prosper."

"Now Miss Lu’s side has reached one hundred billion!"

"It took so many of us scraping and saving to come up with less than fifty billion, yet the Su and Murong families alone contributed fifty billion. There’s just no comparison."

Hearing the crowd’s whispered discussions, a smug look appeared on Murong Lin’s face.

Finally, Jin Zilong straightened his clothes, stood up, and declared emphatically, "I, Jin Zilong, will support Ruge with fifty billion today! This represents my will, and the will of the Jin Family!"

His words struck like a thunderclap, sending shockwaves through the room.

Although these major families in Capital City had assets worth hundreds of billions, or even trillions, it wasn’t easy to liquidate even a few million in cash. They could certainly come up with one hundred or two hundred billion, but what if they failed? The entire family could fall into decline as a result. No major family would take such a risk.

Jin Zilong’s situation, however, was different. The Jin and Lu families had long intended to unite through marriage. The crowd speculated that the Jin Family was trying to curry favor with the Lu Family, allowing Jin Zilong to win over Lu Rugao and forge a powerful alliance between the two.

Lu Rugao took another deep breath, her confidence soaring as she faced Chen Xiao with a smile. "Chen Xiao, I now have nearly one hundred and fifty billion in capital! And you? A mere seventy billion. Are we even in the same league? But I don’t mind if you keep throwing money into the pot. After all, the more you invest, the fatter our profits will be."

Chen Xiao feigned panic and took a deep breath. "So what if you have more capital? I have the best market operator on my side! With him here, we don’t even need seventy billion; we could crush you with only fifty billion!"

"Now that things have reached this point, the Luo Group will not take a single step back. We’ll see this through to the end, even if it means losing everything!"

I’ve been controlling my expression this whole time, trying not to give myself away. After all, holding over eight hundred billion while pretending to have only tens of billions... it’s genuinely difficult. But if their mockery can give me an edge, I don’t mind letting them feel smug for a while before I mercilessly reap what they’ve sown. And judging by their expressions, it seems my acting has convinced them. I wonder if they’ll still be able to smile so happily when they’re utterly defeated in the end?
