The courtyard resembled that of a style with three entrances; the area where the car had been parked must’ve been the front courtyard, and now they were being led towards what seemed to be an inner or back courtyard.

Typically, a courtyard with three entrances would only measure about 50 or 60 meters from front to back, but this one was much larger.

Its surroundings were classically and quietly ornate, suggesting understated opulence. Kiara was unsure whether this place was a private residence or a posh club. She felt a twinge of surprise; having studied in Linville for several years, she had never known of such a house.

As Kiara was pondering, the attendants brought her and Yacob to their destination, the main room in the inner courtyard. They gestured for Kiara and Yacob to enter, and he led her inside.

The interior revealed a different world, contrasting the antiquated charm of the outside. The decor was the pinnacle of luxury, distinctly European in style. Stepping inside, one was immediately struck by the opulent atmosphere. A few people were already seated on the leather sofa, with their bodyguards standing behind them. Upon Yacob’s entrance, they all stood up.

“Young Master Nong!”

These individuals had come from various parts of the world; their skin tones and hair colors varied greatly. They had been casually chatting, but all rose to their feet when they noticed Yacob’s arrival.

Kiara quickly glanced around with her eyes. There was another person in the room who, aside from two wearing glasses and appearing scholarly, the remaining six seemed shrewd. Whether in dress or demeanor, they all resembled cunning businessmen involved in major deals.

Yacob nodded at them, “Are we ready to connect?”

“Yes, we’re just waiting for you,” replied the man at the helm, speaking fluent English. When Kiara had walked in, they too were conversing in English, and even those with yellow skin seemed to be from the Island Nation, not the Domestic Region.

All these foreigners gathered here, what were they up to?

One of the scholarly-looking men approached Yacob, bowing and attempting to strike up a conversation in broken English. Yacob slightly curled the corner of his mouth in disdain, but maintained his outwardly amiable green tea persona.

“Speak in your native language; that’s fine.”

Upon hearing this, Kiara guessed that the butchered English accent must mean he was from the Island Nation.

“Excavate his watermelon…” the man babbled incoherently. Kiara cast her eyes downward, confident in her assumption.

After exchanging courtesies with Yacob, the man’s gaze shifted to Kiara, inquiring who she was.

“This is the Junior Leader, she’s come along to join in the fun,” Yacob explained.

Hearing that she was associated with the farmstead, the others in the room didn’t press further for information.

Only then did Yacob lead Kiara to sit on the leather sofa at the center, which had been left vacant.

Several people sat on either side, but the middle sofa was reserved solely for Yacob and Kiara.

Someone rang a bell, and two attendants entered; one drew all the curtains shut, while the other held a remote control. Upon pressing it, the opposite wall slid open from both sides, revealing two large screens inside.

The main lights were turned off, leaving only the soft illumination of the ring-shaped lamps, adding a touch of mystery to the already sumptuously decorated room.

After completing these tasks, the attendants asked if anyone required drinks before finally leaving the room.

The scholarly-looking man booted up his laptop, apparently connecting it to the left half of the front screen, seemingly setting up a video call.

Sitting next to the scholar, another man controlled the other half of the big screen. It was only then that Kiara realized that this half was displaying betting stakes!

There were two teams listed: the Farm Team and the JR Team. It was unclear what they were about to do, but beneath each team name were the initials of those placing bets, with the numbers steadily increasing.

The sound of conversation from the group of businessmen reached Kiara’s ears.

“I’ve bet five million on the Farm Team today because Young Master Nong himself is participating. He shouldn’t disappoint me. I wanted to add another two million on Young Leopard Davis for the second round, but it’s a shame that he’s not here. Still, everyone is aware of Young Master Nong’s strength. Him facing those two on the opposite side alone shouldn’t pose much of a problem,” they said.

It seems like… I’ve gotten involved in something serious? Kiara tried to adjust her glasses, but found nothing there.

Oh, right, I’m wearing contacts today.

While they were still testing the equipment, and before the start, Kiara whispered to Farmbright Farmer.

“What’s the situation?”

“It’s just bringing you here to watch the elder brothers and sisters play a game. Oh, have you set up online banking yet?”

In recent years, online banking had just started in the Domestic Region, so naturally, Kiara had it.

“Do you have money in your account?”

“Not much, just over a hundred thousand.” Kiara would buy a house or land whenever she had some money, so she didn’t have a lot of spare cash.

“That’s just the entrance fee… never mind, it’s better than nothing. Consider it as earning some milk money for Wendy. Go and find that person,” Farmbright pointed to the one operating the computer, “Find him, bet on me to win. Ah, at 1.2 odds, you can only make a ten or twenty thousand profit, not too exciting.”

Kiara was a bit confused at first, but now she completely understood.

“… so, you dragged me here just to have me participate in your gambling?”

“Don’t put it so bluntly, it’s just an exchange among industry peers. Hurry, bet on your Senior Brother to win~”

“No way!”

She wouldn’t make the mistake of falling for such a small profit, especially if Camden found out that she got involved in this kind of thing, he definitely wouldn’t let her off the hook.

“Tsk tsk, look at you, this is just a normal academic exchange. It’s just that some people love stirring up trouble for their own amusement, intentionally adding a little incentive to spice things up, it won’t be that big of a deal.”

“Hehe, that 5 million he mentioned, is it in dollars?”

“… US dollars. This is considered a very average bet already. Our home Old Man is just not interested in playing these games. If he came, at the very least he could’ve tripled it.”

A single person’s initial bet was so large, and then there were those who couldn’t attend and participated remotely, with investments not amounting to a few ten millions or even up to a hundred million. And you’re calling this a small amount?

“Forget it, I am a proud Young Pioneer with a Red Scarf, I really don’t want to engage in such petty cash.”

Farmbright smirked. True to the Arua Madame’s character, blinding him with her righteousness!

While the two were talking, the equipment on the other side was ready. The screen showed two people, one was a man wearing a mask, and the other was a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreign girl. As soon as Kiara saw her, she opened her mouth wide in surprise and pointed at the screen.

“Ah, Aka?!”

What in the world, Aka has switched sides?

“Look closely, she’s not Aka.”

Kiara looked carefully and indeed, it wasn’t Aka. Although their faces were similar, this woman’s figure was so much better than Aka’s.

Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind, and Mrs. Kiara understood.

It was Aka’s twin sister.

“Young Master Nong, where’s the Fox Cat?” the woman who looked like Aka asked.

“He’s tied up and couldn’t make it.”

“Could he not make it, or did he get scared off after hearing that I was coming?” The woman’s voice was similar to Aka’s, but much gentler and more delicate.
