Thinking of this, Wang Peng was about to fly into a rage. “It looks like your club only knows how to throw money around, eh?” he jeered at Sun Hao.

“Well, of course, since we have money to throw around. That’s what you call resources.”

Sun Hao didn’t seem fazed by the whole altercation. He had yet to suffer a loss from their verbal repartee as well.

He looked at Yao Tangand smiled. “Besides, our club is more than willing to dish out any necessary amount to better express our appreciation for Miss Yao’s skills.”

Wang Peng’s hands clenched into fists. “I see you’re really hell-bent on stealing a prospect from me.”

The atmosphere grew charged after his words. Tension crackled in the air between the two men.

It was then that Yao Tangspoke again, calm and aloof as ever. “I won’t be joining any organization. I have no such plans at the moment. You guys should leave.”

Wang Peng’s eyes flashed with menace.

If Yao Tangreally had no intention to join a club, then she wouldn’t have come here in the first place!

And yet she was here, right before his very eyes, which meant that she did want to join some association.

She was probably not satisfied with the terms they had offered, which was why she was saying this now.

Wang Peng almost sneered at the girl.

She might look cool and indifferent on the outside, but she was obviously a scheming little opportunist. This was just too much. It turned out that Yao Tangwas greedier thanXu Xuan!

“Listen well, Yao Tang,” he said, his tone laced with arrogance. “If you join our club, I would be willing to triple everythingSun Haooffered just now. Think about it carefully. If you compete under the banner of our club, you will have the name of the entireCity Abehind your back!”

Wang Peng’s club was not as rich as Sun Hao’s, but they weren’t dirt poor, either.

Now that things had come to this, he couldn’t afford to bow down to such a blatant challenge. Otherwise, they would be looked down on by the rest of the sports industry.

Wang Peng andSun Haohad been navigating this field for so long. As big bosses operating in the same city, they naturally had conflicts now and then.

Although they might appear friendly with each other, the two clubs had always regarded each other as rivals.

After today’s turn of events, there was no way that Wang Pengwas going to letYao Tanggo.

“I’m willing to respect Miss Yao’s decision,” Sun Haosaid. His smile had never faltered once. “After all, everyone has the freedom to choose what they think is best for them. They shouldn’t be threatened or intimidated into doing something they do not like.”

Wang Peng’s face turned an alarming shade of red at that.

Even so, he couldn’t refute the other man’s words. Otherwise, he would risk tarnishing his club’s reputation, as well as a possible lawsuit.

And so, he bit his tongue and stewed where he stood, though his expression became even more terrible.

Seeing that Wang Penghad finally shut up,Sun Haoturned back toYao Tang.

“Miss Yao, our club doesn’t really care much about other things outside of competitions. If you join us, we would be happy to double or triple whatever price the tennis club names. More than that, I will honor your decision, just like I said earlier. I only hope that we can be friends.”

With that, he extended a hand for Yao Tangto shake.

She looked up and obliged him.

Their handshake was firm and brief, nothing more than a polite gesture.

Unfortunately, Wang Pengdidn’t see it like that. His fists tightened until his knuckles were cracking, but there was nothing more he could do. He couldn’t matchSun Hao’s offer, let alone surpass it.

If he pursued this matter, the tennis club would go bankrupt.

Perhaps his failure was inevitable, anyway. How could he have known that Yao Tangwas this greedy and ambitious? It was just his bad luck that a wealthier club had shown up at such a time.

However, he was certain that Sun Hao’s presence was no mere coincidence. It was definitely calculated.

It was either Xu XuanorYao Tangwho had plotted this confrontation so that they could choose the highest bidder without regrets.

Wang Peng felt like he had been played for a fool!

He growled under his breath, hating Xu Xuanwith every fiber of his being.
