As for Li John's predicament, Yang Bo did not care in the slightest. After Butler put him through the wringer, he might be able to squeeze even more money out of him.
Although Yang Bo knew how much money the guy had, he had not told Butler.
After all, it would all be his sooner or later. The attitude he had put on now was mainly based on Bart's personality.
