For Wendell's family history, Helen more or less knew something about it, and the last lottery win was still fresh in her mind. The last time she won the lottery, she was still aware of it. Moreover, Wendell's prize money was still in her card!

There is no doubt that Wendell came from a poor background, and I am afraid that by now his family would not be too rich, unless Wendell took the prize money back, perhaps his family would have some savings.

But since that was the case, where did Wendell and Liam get the money to dare to come to such a high-cla_s restaurant for dinner?

Having been in Tafator County for months, Helen had certainly heard of this three-star Peng Barreeg Grand Hotel. It is said that the people who come here are more or less all wealthy or dignified people in Tafator County, and even the first and second in command in the county often patronize this place.

Helen also just casually mentioned this restaurant to her boyfriend during casual conversation, and as a result, she was brought here by her boyfriend.

So, Liam and Wendell and the others, did they come here deliberately?

Or was it really like they said, because they hadn't been to this upscale restaurant before, so they came to experience where they got their money from?

Helen couldn't help but look at Liam, Wendell definitely didn't have any money, so the only possibility, was that Liam had brought Wendell here.

This student who was mediocre in his cla_s and got great grades in every exam, his family was rich? Helen gave Liam a puzzled look, but in her heart she was secretly wondering.

Not true!

Helen suddenly remembered, just now Wendell asked the waiter to count the bowls of shark's fins on Liam's bill, that natural and casual expression, definitely not something that could be faked, and definitely not because of a great relationship to say so, to know that these bowls of shark's fins were not cheap, even if they were great friends again, if not everyone had a certain amount of money, they definitely would not say so.

Helen, who couldn't figure it out, could only shake her head helplessly.

While eating, both Wendell and Liam stopped talking. Originally, this meal came because Liam was sorry for Wendell's heart and because the brothers had never formally eaten together.

But because of the addition of Larry, it instead made the meal lack that feeling and was tasteless to eat.

"Come on, little ones, eat the shark's fin first, it's very nutritious!" Larry said with a smile, "These are loose shark's fins, although they're not as great as those that have gone through a hair raising process, but it's not bad to have shark's fins in a small county like Tafator County, huh!"

"D_mn it!"

Liam cursed in his heart, Laozi invited you to dinner, but he still picked and chose, and even greeted us, seemingly treating himself as the master?

Wendell, however, only smiled slightly and then lowered his head and concentrated on tasting the shark's fin, he didn't know the difference between loose shark's fin and chopped shark's fin, he just thought, how this shark's fin was a bit like vermicelli. For Larry's antipathy and occasional sarcasm, he only took it as a whisper and blew it off.

Even for Helen's sake, there was no need to be generally understanding with such people.

Helen also felt that what Larry said was a bit too much, and could not help but scold him, "Hurry up and eat, even the shark's fins can't stop your mouth from talking so much!"

Larry frowned slightly as a stern look flashed in his eyes. His own girlfriend was actually talking about himself in front of students, where did this make him lose face? What's more, these students had also made themselves lose face before.

Looking at Liam and Wendell again with a bemused look, concentrating on eating the shark's fin, Larry's heart became even more discontented with Wendell and Liam, the little brutes must be sN_ggering in their hearts!

"You will suffer later!" Larry coldly snorted in his heart.

"Right, I was just at the entrance of the lobby and I think I saw the instruction that the upstairs of this grand hotel seems to be the entertainment room, why don't we go up there and have some fun too?" Just after finishing his meal, Larry smiled and proposed, "I'll be the guest this time, you guys just feel free to play!"

Wendell hesitated for a mument, this Larry was obviously a bit out of tune, if we went to play together, it was inevitable that this guy would say something hard to hear.

However, Helen was very fond of Liam and Wendell, the students, so she nodded and said, "Yes, let's go up together!"

Since Helen had given her word, Wendell could only smile and nod his head.

The 4 of them took the lift to the fifth floor where the recreation room was located. Just after entering the lobby, they immediately noticed that there was a billiard room at the very outside, but compared to those billiard rooms on the street, this place looked very upscale, and the carpet laid on it was soft and comfortable to step on.

The chandeliers in the billiard room are also very bright and perfect for playing billiards. There were scoreboards on the walls, and with a few more referees, the place could have been a proper snooker tournament.

"Let's play billiards!" Larry smiled as he strutted over to an empty table and laughed, "Helen is aware that my skills are not too great, and I was only the vice president of the billiards a_sociation for 4 years in college!"

Looking at Larry's bragging look, Liam's face was a bit gloomy, he quickly returned to normal and smiled, "So Mr. He is still a master, what a coincidence, I am a bad student, I usually like to play billiards when I skip cla_ses, my skills are not bad either."

"Then let's have a game!" Larry smiled faintly and said somewhat smugly, "But don't cry if you lose!"

"Don't worry!" Liam smiled ‘brightly', "It's usually my opponents who cry their noses off!"

"Haha, that's great." Larry looked confident, "But there's no point in just playing casually, why don't we add a little bit of colour, how about that?"

"Larry! They're all still students, don't gamble!" Helen said with dissatisfaction.

Larry, however, ignored it and just looked at Liam with some provocation.

"Fine!" Liam agreed in one breath and laughed, "I think it's like this, how about losing one game for a hundred dollars?"

Larry immediately laughed, "That's a deal. Liam is it, you should be careful, don't lose all your living expenses!"

"I'm afraid you'll lose the money for the journey back!" Liam laughed lightly, but his words were uncompromising.

"Very great!"

Larry laughed, "Little guy has guts, how about this, we won't play regular snooker, that's too slow. We'll play a bit of hammer hole, switch to normal billiards, point and shoot, hitting someone else's ball will count as the other's, the white ball into the hole will be a penalty, whoever gets the black eight in first will be considered the winner, how about that?"

"I like playing this the most!" Liam smiled.

Larry's eyes flashed with smugness, and the corners of his mouth pulled up a slight curve, as if he had some taste of conspiracy.

The men took their clubs separately and the waiter came up and set up the balls.

"Let's get started, little one, let you tee off first!" Larry laughed, but in his heart he was secretly pleased with himself. Generally speaking, when people tee off, the first shot almost rarely goes in, and even if it does, it's a hreatoo. Besides, if you don't get in, you'll leave your opponent with a defenceless ball. So in general, the person who takes the later shot has the advantage.
