In Lin Chuxue's apartment, she was holding a newspaper in her hand. It was the morning news report of Shangcheng, and the news about the biggest casino in the city being shut down was spreading like wildfire. This time, the people that were arrested were mostly the core members of West Gate.
Seeing the content, Lin Chuxue thought that West Gate's power was already gone.
She sighed. "He really changed. In less than a month, North Gate and West Gate are already struggling at death's door. What a smart move."
Lin Guiren, who was sitting on the side, rubbed his eyes and said, "Yeah, he's become more outstanding, but sooner or later, he will still go after that Ye Family. My daughter, this is his choice. So, you should just come back to Britain with us."
Lin Chuxue bitterly smiled. "Dad, then what about this marriage?"
Lin Guiren sighed. "Daughter, Dad knows that you still accepted the marriage even after Xu Cheng rejected it because you are grateful for what he has done for you over the years. You are my daughter, how could I not know that you only have gratitude for Xu Cheng and no feelings for him? Now that you are back in China with him for four years, you guys have been living separate lives. Instead of this, why don't you just leave him and come home with us? "
Lin Chuxue didn't say anything, and her beautiful eyes just stared blankly at the fish kissing in the glass tank.
At night, at an open-air bar by the river, Shen Yao, Xu Cheng, and Ran Jing clinked glasses.
"Cheers."
Shen Yao happily looked at Xu Cheng and said, "That day, I was scared to death. Good thing I pretended to go to the washroom and sneaked out from the side door. I knew West Gate would definitely follow me. If they found out that I purposely went to win Joseph's money to ambush them, would they send a dozen big men to kill me?"
Xu Cheng looked at her strangely and said, "You really like being killed that much?"
"Go to hell." Shen Yao snorted, and then she laughed out loud. "I'm rich."
Ran Jing sipped her beer and curiously asked, "How much did you win?"
Shen Yao smiled and said, "Almost 3 billion!"
Ran Jing's eyes widened. "What?"
Xu Cheng faintly smiled, poured her a glass, and said, "Pretty much. If I didn't win that much, Joseph wouldn't be in such a hurry to cause trouble."
Ran Jing had no clue at all about Xu Cheng's plans. "Just how big are you guys playing?"
Xu Cheng: "This time, in order to stop their money laundering operation, I prepared 1.5 billion yuan for Shen Yao to gamble."
Ran Jing looked at Shen Yao, and then looked at Xu Cheng. She jokingly said, "Aren't you afraid that this guy's IQ will make him lose all his money? You sure have a big heart. "
Shen Yao immediately glanced at Ran Jing. "Hey, what do you mean? What do you mean by my IQ? My IQ is very high. Haven't you seen me keep my chastity despite my occupation? That's enough to prove that I'm smart enough, okay? "
Ran Jing smiled. "Seriously, how did you win all that money? Logically speaking, clients who launder money should have a casino's specialized gamblers, right? "
"That's the right question." Shen Yao coughed and said proudly, "Have you seen those gambling movies? It was a battle of wits and courage between me and that Joseph. First, I won six hundred million from him. That guy was definitely not satisfied and kept asking me to continue gambling. Left with no choice, I could only teach him how to gamble. Especially in the last round, guess what card he got? It was a straight flush! But I, on the other hand, was calm and controlled the whole process. I also controlled the atmosphere and forced him to play with me until the last round of bets. Both of us threw in 2 billion. At that time, you didn't feel that kind of atmosphere. It was as if whoever lost would jump out of the window because they couldn't take the blow. When he opened his cards, he really gave me a fright. But I taught him a lesson with a straight flush that was bigger than his! "
Ran Jing looked at Shen Yao and then at Xu Cheng, asking, "Is what she said true?"
Xu Cheng smiled and nodded. "It's true. There were a few times when she almost screwed up for me."
Shen Yao punched Xu Cheng's chest and said, "My acting is better than yours. If you were in that situation, you definitely wouldn't be as calm as me."
"Yeah, you were very calm." Xu Cheng couldn't help but remind her, "Who was the one who suddenly screamed after winning the first round? And who was the one who directly broke their mic in the last round? "
Shen Yao glared at Xu Cheng. "Shut up."
Ran Jing also laughed and said, "I also don't believe that Shen Yao would really gamble a few billion. Xu Cheng, did you prepare something?"
Shen Yao looked at Xu Cheng and asked curiously, "Yeah, I also want to ask, how did you know their cards? It seems like you can accurately guess their cards every round. "
Xu Cheng couldn't tell others the secret of his body, so he could only say, "The dealer is actually one of my people, so didn't you notice that he couldn't help Joseph at a critical moment?"
Shen Yao really believed him. Ran Jing wasn't there, so she didn't know about Xu Cheng's terrifying ability to control the situation from a distance. However, she was very curious about the whole planning process, so she immediately asked, "Then can you tell me about your plan now? I almost pretended I didn't know you at the police station after reading that report. "
Xu Cheng smiled, and then he cleared his mind and said, "All the breakthroughs came from my informant who found out that West Gate was going to launder money. So, I used this point to plan all the cases. I let Shen Yao win money to stimulate Joseph and cause a ruckus in the casino, so he would definitely directly contact the people behind the casino. I already tapped his phone and had my eyes on Chang Qing. Just like the rumors said, there are indeed four people behind West Gate, and Chang Qing is the head of the four.
As the three were chatting, a waiter came over with a big plate of barbecued seafood and said, "Sir, there's a customer over there who wants to treat you."
Xu Cheng curiously turned around and saw a yellow-haired young man – Lin Dong.
This little brat grinned and waved at him from the next table. "Big Brother Cheng."
Xu Cheng was originally planning to reject the barbecued food from an outsider, but seeing that it was Lin Dong, he didn't hold back anymore. He turned around and said to the two girls, "It's fine, eat as much as you want."
Then, he took a bite of the meat.
Lin Dong immediately leaned over and cupped his fists. "Since you ate my meat, then Master, please accept a bow from your disciple."
Xu Cheng almost choked on the meat. He looked up in surprise at Lin Dong who was standing up straight and looking very sincere.
"What is he trying to do?" Shen Yao looked at Xu Cheng curiously.
Lin Dong saw that Shen Yao was sitting quite close to Xu Cheng, so he naturally thought that she was Xu Cheng's' woman '. He immediately cupped his fists and turned to her and said in a very serious tone, "Master's wife."
Pfft!
Ran Jing directly spat out the beer she was drinking. Lin Dong thought that he did something wrong, so he immediately cupped his fists and said to Ran Jing, "This is also Master's wife? Hehe, Master is indeed a master, he really knows how to have fun. "
