"Please take a seat."
After Manager Feng left, Zhou Yaoguang gestured for Ling Yun and Zeng Yingying to take a seat. He smiled and said, "It's too urgent, so I can only invite the two of you to sit here for a while. Please forgive me for not being a good host."
Ling Yun knew what Zhou Yaoguang meant. He was afraid that they would continue gambling and win more than a hundred million, or that they would take the money and leave the Golden Sands.
If that was the case, this matter would naturally become the talk of all the gamblers, but the Golden Sands Casino would become a laughing stock. A hundred million was a small matter, but losing face was a big deal.
Zhou Yaoguang personally went forward and closed the door to the VIP lounge. He turned around and asked, "What would you like to drink?"
This was a private VIP lounge. The room was very large and very luxurious. If it wasn't for the conspicuous gambling table, it would be more like a magnificent living room with everything that one could think of.
Since there wasn't even a dealer, Ling Yun and Zeng Yingying naturally wouldn't sit at the gambling table. The two of them sat side by side on the sofa for guests to rest on.
Ling Yun smiled. "It's fine, Boss Zhou. Just say what you want to say."
"Great!"
Zhou Yaoguang sat opposite the two of them and looked at Zeng Yingying. Finally, his eyes fixed on Ling Yun's face.
"I'm Zhou Yaoguang. I'm not the real owner of the Golden Sands Hotel, but I have a small share in this casino, so I can be considered the person in charge here."
Zhou Yaoguang was speaking in Mandarin, but it was very clumsy and had a strong Hong Kong accent. Fortunately, Ling Yun could understand him.
Zeng Yingying turned her head and whispered in Ling Yun's ear, "He's a local, the local tyrant of Haojiang."
Ling Yun understood and nodded casually. "Nice to meet you."
For Ling Yun, this was already considered very polite.
Seeing that the other party was quite sensible, he decided to let him go.
Zhou Yaoguang was stuck there.
According to the routine, after I introduce myself, you should at least say your name. What's the meaning of saying nice to meet you?
Zeng Yingying didn't want to make things too awkward, so she quickly introduced, "Boss Zhou, this is my boyfriend, Lin Tian. He doesn't talk much."
"So it's Mister Lin. You really are a young hero. Nice to meet you."
Zhou Yaoguang knew that Zeng Yingying was giving him a way out, so he immediately put on a smile and pretended to be enthusiastic.
"Mr. Lin, are you from the mainland?"
"Not bad."
"If I'm not wrong, this should be your first time in Haojiang, right?"
"Yes."
"But as far as I know, Mister Lin doesn't seem to have completed the exit procedures?"
Hearing this, Ling Yun finally raised his eyelids. He thought to himself that the casinos in Haojiang were indeed resourceful.
"Yes."
Of course, Ling Yun didn't go through the customs procedures. He flew over directly from the sea.
"Then …"
Zhou Yaoguang couldn't go on. He came from the mainland and didn't go through any exit procedures. That was tantamount to smuggling.
"Yes."
Ling Yun smiled faintly. "Can't I?"
Zhou Yaoguang hurriedly waved his hand. "Mr. Lin, please don't overthink it. We Haojiang people don't care about these things."
"Then what's the meaning of asking about my identity the moment you arrived?"
"Aiya, Mister Lin, you've misunderstood. I just thought that since you're Miss Zeng's boyfriend and you look so unfamiliar, I wanted to get to know you better and make friends with you!"
"Oh, I thought you wanted to find someone to arrest me."
"What are you talking about, Mister Lin? If that's the case, why would I arrange a suite for you just now?"
With just a few simple words, Ling Yun had forced Zhou Yaoguang into a panic. Zhou Yaoguang hurriedly explained. Then, he smiled bitterly at Zeng Yingying and said, "Miss Zeng, even though your boyfriend doesn't speak much, he has a way with words!"
"Yes."
Zeng Yingying seemed to be infected by Ling Yun. She imitated him and spoke word by word.
After she finished speaking, even Zeng Yingying had to admit that the feeling of acting cool was really good.
"Boss Zhou, I advise you to be direct."
Zeng Yingying was here to have fun today, not to chat. She was a little impatient when she saw Zhou Yaoguang rambling on and on.
"Alright!"
Zhou Yaoguang knew that he had asked too much and made Zeng Yingying unhappy, so he changed the topic immediately.
"Miss Zeng, although I know that as a casino owner, we can't be afraid of our customers winning money, but at the end of the day, we're just doing business. Your father is a top-notch expert in our gambling business, so I'm sure he knows some of our secretive rules and has already told you about them. Isn't it a little too much for you to suddenly come over and take away 100 million from us?"
Zhou Yaoguang spoke quickly and went straight to the point. He said everything that should and shouldn't be said in one breath.
Zeng Yingying really didn't know how to continue after Zhou Yaoguang finished speaking.
That was because Ling Yun wasn't talking about winning or losing between the gamblers and the casino. He was talking about the rules of the gambling business. Since Zeng Yingying's father was known as the Gambling God, he must be a big shot in the gambling business. Even though he lived in seclusion in Beijing, his status in the gambling city was higher than Zhou Yaoguang's. As Zeng Liuzhi's daughter, Zeng Yingying had indeed won money today, but she had broken the rules.
Zhou Yaoguang's words were equivalent to grasping Zeng Yingying's weakness.
Just as Zeng Yingying was thinking about how to deal with it, Ling Yun suddenly scratched his head casually and asked, "Yingying, what did he mean?"
"Hmm, he meant that we won a little too much today and he said that I broke the rules …"
"Oh."
Ling Yun nodded and smiled brightly at Zhou Yaoguang. "Boss Zhou, you can't afford to lose?"
Zhou Yaoguang didn't expect Ling Yun to be so direct. He said awkwardly, "It's not that I can't afford to lose. It's just that we're all in the underworld, so we have to follow some rules …"
"What rules? I came to the casino to win money. If I don't win money, do I have to give money to the casino?" Ling Yun sneered.
Ling Yun sneered, not at all courteous. "Moreover, the cards belong to your family, and the dealer is also your family. We didn't even touch the cards from the beginning to the end, nor did we cheat. Now that we've won, not only are you not letting us go, but you're also talking about the rules … Isn't this a sore loser?"
"Mr. Lin, please don't misunderstand. Of course, I know that the two of you didn't cheat."
Zhou Yaoguang was almost choked to death by Ling Yun. He was a little anxious and hurriedly explained, "But we're all in the underworld, so we have to give each other some face …"
"Hmph!"
Ling Yun still sneered. "I think since Boss Zhou runs a casino, you must have heard of this saying, there are no fathers and sons in the casino."
"If you don't even talk about the father-son relationship, why talk about face?"
"Let me ask you another question. If we lose a hundred million in your casino today, and I ask you to talk about face and return the money to me, will you give it to me?"
"Uh …"
Zhou Yaoguang was completely stumped. He murmured, "Of course not …"
"Hahahaha …"
Ling Yun laughed out loud after hearing this. "In the end, your rules are a double standard. If you win, you follow the rules of the casino, and if we win, we follow the rules of the gambling house. In short, only you can earn money, and we can only lose, isn't that right?"
Zhou Yaoguang's face turned ugly.
His tone turned cold. "Mr. Lin, you can ask Miss Zeng. I've been in Haojiang for decades, and I've never reneged on a loss. I didn't say all that to stop you from taking the money away."
"Then what do you mean?" Ling Yun reclined on the sofa.
"I just want to make things clear to Miss Zeng. With her status, she shouldn't play like this. She shouldn't disregard her father's status and break the rules of the gambling house."
"Hehe …"
Ling Yun laughed angrily. "So you're saying that if she takes the money away today, she'll be bringing shame to her father?"
"I didn't say that," Zhou Yaoguang replied.
"There's no point in hiding it. Let me tell you clearly. Today's matter has nothing to do with Yingying. I'm just itching to try my luck at the casino. I'm not from the gambling house, and I don't understand your lousy rules. I don't want to understand them!"
Zhou Yaoguang: "…"
Ling Yun couldn't use Zeng Liuzhi's status and the gambling house's rules to argue.
"Don't be angry, Mr. Lin. Harmony breeds wealth."
Zhou Yaoguang pondered for a while and put on a smiling face. However, his eyes were flickering. "From what I can see, Mr. Lin, and the way you placed your bets, you seem to be very confident in your luck?"
Ling Yun laughed secretly. You've finally revealed your fox's tail. Aren't you just trying to win back the money?
"So-so, I think my luck is pretty good. I might be able to win one or two rounds …"
"Come to think of it, it's quite a coincidence that we have a bet tonight."
Zhou Yaoguang pointed at the table. "I wonder if Mr. Lin is interested in participating?"
That was the reason why he booked a suite for the two of them. Naturally, he had to win back the money he lost in the gambling house.
"That depends on whether I have the time …" Ling Yun pretended to ponder.
"If Mr. Lin doesn't dare, I won't force you."
Zhou Yaoguang laughed coldly and pointed at the box of chips on the table. "Please help yourselves."
"Don't dare?!"
Ling Yun stood up. "Are you scolding me? Tell me, what time is it tonight? "
Zhou Yaoguang saw that Ling Yun had finally taken the bait. He thought to himself, Ten o 'clock tonight. Let's start on time. "
"What are we betting on?"
Zhou Yaoguang really didn't know. At this moment, Ling Yun was thinking the same thing.
"Originally, it was the most popular card in the world. However, if Mr. Lin doesn't like it, you can choose whatever you want."
"It's alright, let's play poker then."
"Mr. Lin, we have one hundred million chips on the table. If Mr. Lin doesn't have enough, I can make the decision and advance ten million for you."
Ling Yun smiled secretly. "Thank you very much."
Zhou Yaoguang was speechless.
He thought that Ling Yun would definitely raise one hundred million by himself. He didn't expect Ling Yun to ask for it without any hesitation.
"If that's the case, then it's settled?"
Ling Yun nodded. "It's settled."
Zhou Yaoguang smiled with satisfaction. "If that's the case, I'll arrange for someone to send both of you to the suite to rest. Then, we'll go on a killing spree tonight!"
"See you later."
Ling Yun reached out and grabbed Zeng Yingying.
"The chips for both of you …"
Ling Yun waved his hand without turning his head. "No need to go through so much trouble. Just leave it here. I believe it won't go missing."
