The so-called threat was merely a notification within the Kyoto circles. In reality, they had no understanding of the Kyoto motorcycle scene, so the notification was meaningless. It was simply that Yan Xiaoqiang and the others valued the team's reputation too much and feared embarrassing Lin Yan. Coupled with their ignorance, they were thus intimidated by these two individuals.
As for the specifics of the bet, it naturally revolved around Jiang Qiyan. When Jiang Qiyan arrived yesterday, the two brothers had taken a liking to her. How could they let go of such a spirited female racer? However, after some interaction, they discovered that Jiang Qiyan was different from the women they had encountered before; she possessed an inherent sense of repulsion towards them, preventing them from getting close, and had even resorted to physical confrontation.
Upon hearing his elder brother mention the bet, the black man covering his mouth nearby revealed a fanatical gleam in his eyes. His gaze then fell upon Jiang Qiyan, who stood behind Lin Yan. He had been coveting this young woman for a long time, and after seeing her yesterday, he had been longing for her day and night.
It seemed that if they won today's bet, they would have a chance to get close to her.
They were not worried about the bet. Their ability to work as assistant instructors abroad clearly indicated their high level of skill. Even if these individuals were external reinforcements hired by the other party, they were confident.
Seeing the other party staring at her like a pervert, Jiang Qiyan glared fiercely at him before hiding behind the crowd.
"I can participate, but let's change the bet."
Lin Yan gestured for Ren Fei to return. While competing with these individuals was somewhat beneath him, since he was the leader of these students, it was not impossible for him to take the lead.
"No, the bet cannot be changed; it must remain as it is."
"Then there's no need to compete. Li Wei, go beat this guy up too."
Lin Yan waved his hand. Li Wei stepped forward again. This competition was not absolutely necessary, and beating these two up was also a way to vent their anger.
"What do you want to do!"
Seeing Lin Yan about to resort to violence again, the two black men became anxious. They instinctively took a step back. The woman whose thigh had been touched earlier also yelped in fright and retreated a step with the two black men.
Although the black men were robust, they knew they could not defeat the eight bodyguards present.
"Brother Lin, actually, this bet is not a big deal. I believe in you."
"No."
Lin Yan refused decisively. He would not gamble with his student's innocence under any circumstances.
Jiang Qiyan had intended to quietly persuade Lin Yan. Hearing his refusal, she pouted slightly, but her heart warmed. She already had some feelings for Lin Yan, and now those peculiar emotions had intensified.
In her opinion, it would be enough for Brother Lin to beat up the opponents to vent her anger. As for the bet, since the opponents wouldn't win anyway, why worry so much? However, she never expected Lin Yan to refuse outright. But then again, it was a good thing.
"I just don't want to use my student as a wager."
As if fearing Jiang Qiyan would overthink it, Lin Yan added another sentence, but it was too late; Jiang Qiyan had already finished her overthinking.
As he spoke, Li Wei raised his palm, ready to strike the opponent's conspicuous bald head. However, at the critical moment, the bald black man relented.
"Don't do anything, I agree, I agree, alright!"
If they were to fight with so many bodyguards, they would surely be beaten. This was an unwise choice.
"This bet is not acceptable. Then what do you propose? We agreed beforehand, if you lose, no backing out."
The bald black man gritted his teeth, cast a wary glance at Li Wei, and said fiercely.
In his opinion, competing with this pretty boy in front of him was almost a guaranteed win.
"Tell me what you want. Is one million enough?"
Li Wei took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it to Lin Yan. The reason he took it from Li Wei was not because Lin Yan didn't have money, but because the bank cards Lin Yan had were not for such small amounts.
One million!
Hearing Lin Yan mention one million, the two brothers' eyes lit up. They had come abroad specifically to make money. Although one million was not a huge sum in Kyoto, it was still a considerable amount, and how could they not be tempted?
However, the two still kept a watchful eye.
"How do you prove you have a million?"
The bald black man glanced at the bank card in Lin Yan's hand, his eyes filled with covetousness. Suppressing his restless urge, he probed.
"Don't worry, I have no reason to lie to you. As long as you can beat me, this one million will be yours. Is this stake enough?"
As Lin Yan spoke, Li Wei pressed the car key. The black Cullinan parked at the distant entrance beeped. Although it was far away, the two brothers clearly saw that it was a luxury car.
Good heavens, he could actually produce a million. In the face of money, the two instantly forgot about the woman.
"Enough! Enough! Alright, I agree. We agreed beforehand that it must be this guy who competes."
As if fearing Lin Yan would renege, the bald black man emphasized it again.
Hearing this, Yan Xiaoqiang and Jiang Qiyan behind them couldn't help but chuckle again, especially Yan Xiaoqiang. If Jiang Qimo hadn't covered his mouth, his voice would have been even louder.
Ren Fei also showed a rare smile. Originally, his own weakness would have been enough, but these two fools insisted on targeting the strongest person here.
The two brothers exchanged glances. Though they didn't understand the meaning, they couldn't care less at this moment; a million was important.
"Alright, but what if you lose?"
A playful smile curved Lin Yan's lips. He secretly thought these two idiots actually believed they could take that million.
"If we lose, it will be the same as yesterday. We will apologize and kneel down to call her 'Grandma' twice."
"Okay, that bet is fine."
Lin Yan asked Jiang Qiyan. Since she had no objections, he agreed immediately.
"Tell me, how do we compete?"
Lin Yan directly pushed the matter of the competition rules onto them. The two black men were relatively decent and didn't try any small tricks with the rules.
Five laps to decide the winner, the rules were very simple. Lin Yan created some 'difficulty' for himself, changing the original plan of starting on the same line to letting the opponent start first, with him a body length behind.
This made the two brothers slightly stunned, unsure if Lin Yan was being arrogant or if he truly had this confidence.
