They took the car all the way from the door. Zhu Liya was very calm along the way, which was beyond Xiao Bing's expectation. She was indeed an outstanding woman with a queen's character to be able to calm down in such a short time.
Both of them were sitting in the back with a fist's length between them. But they were so close that Xiao Bing could not help but pay attention to Zhu Liya. Xiao Bing was amazed when he looked at this beautiful woman. She was a few years older than Xiao Bing, but she had a mature charm that young girls did not have.
The driver listened to the music for a while and hummed. Then he said, "Are you two going to the casino to find someone?"
Xiao Bing was relieved. It was hard to imagine that a woman could be so attractive to him. It was not a spiritual attraction like Yezi, nor was it a desire to protect like Su Xiaoxiao. It was a pure temptation of hormones. Xiao Bing had felt this before, but it was not as strong as it was now.
Xiao Bing looked at the driver and smiled, "How did you know?"
"Ahem, for drivers like us, what kind of customers have we not interacted with? You two don't look like the kind of gamblers who often go to places like that. What else are you doing besides looking for someone? Is it because your relatives are gambling? Alas, nine out of ten gambles are lost! "
Xiao Bing sighed and said, "Yes, nine out of ten gambles are lost … But isn't it illegal to run a casino? Don't the police care?"
"Care what? They have a business license. It seems to be a legitimate business, but it is actually a casino. Even I, a taxi driver, know about it. How can the police not know about it? To put it bluntly, they have a strong backer. "
"Oh," Xiao Bing said and asked, "What kind of people are behind them?"
"I don't know. It's not something that a taxi driver like me should know!"
Zhu Liya, who was sitting next to him, said little. Xiao Bing and the driver chatted until they arrived at the entrance of the casino. Actually, it looked more like a salon than a casino. It was not a big salon. When they walked in, they saw several hairdressers, both men and women, sitting together and playing mahjong.
Seeing Xiao Bing and Zhu Liya coming in, one of the women said lazily, "It's closed today. We don't do business."
Zhu Liya said coldly, "Take me to Zhang Gui. I'm his wife."
Hearing Zhu Liya's words, they began to look her up and down. Then a yellow-haired young man sneered, jumped off the bed and said casually, "Come with me."
He walked to the wall and knocked on it rhythmically three times. Then, he knocked three more times. Soon, someone responded. There was a door on the wall, and it opened with a squeak.
"Go in." The young man said lazily. He stared at Zhu Liya and muttered, "It's like a flower stuck in cow dung."
Xiao Bing followed Zhu Liya through the small door. Two burly men were waiting for them. They looked at Xiao Bing carefully and then asked Zhu Liya, "Are they your friends?"
Julia nodded.
"Okay, come with us."
There were stairs leading to the basement. Xiao Bing looked around and found that the people here were really resourceful. The casino was well hidden and the boss behind it seemed to be not simple.
The basement was very spacious. There were gambling machines, mahjong tables, and card tables everywhere. It was extremely crowded inside. Many gamblers surrounded each table and kept shouting. Seeing Xiao Bing and Zhu Liya coming in, someone glanced at them and immediately walked to the deeper room.
"Let's go. Our boss is waiting for you inside."
Zhu Liya and Xiao Bing walked all the way to the hut that the man had just entered. The hut was filled with smoke and a man was tied up on the ground. Six or seven big men were sitting or standing, puffing smoke from their mouths.
When a dark-skinned bald man saw Zhu Liya, he smiled happily and said, "Mrs. Zhang, I'm so sorry to bother you to come here."
Zhu Liya frowned. It seemed that she didn't like this place. She was angry when she saw the man who was tied up on the ground. The man looked at Zhu Liya as if he had seen his savior. He hurriedly shouted, "Honey, help me, help me. Give them the money. They're going to cut off my fingers."
Xiao Bing was stunned. This man was short. Zhu Liya was about 1.7 meters tall, but he was only about 1.6 meters tall. He was a head shorter than Zhu Liya. Also, he was not good-looking. He looked like a loafer. Why was it popular to pair a toad and a swan now? No matter what, Zhu Liya had a good figure, a good look, a good temperament, and was sexy enough. She could be a match for any man. Why did she have to be with him?
Xiao Bing secretly felt pity for Zhu Liya.
Zhu Liya's eyes were filled with shame and annoyance at first, but then they turned into unwillingness and helplessness. Obviously, she was not satisfied with this marriage. But he did not know why she married this man.
Zhu Liya glanced at Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing took out 100,000 yuan from his clothes and handed it to Zhu Liya. Zhu Liya looked at the leading man and said coldly, "Brother Biao, we have dealt with each other once. I trust you. I'll give you the money. You can let him go after you give me the money."
Brother Biao walked over and took the money away. He gave it to one of his men to count. After counting the money, the man handed it back to Brother Biao and said, "Brother Biao, it's exactly 100,000 yuan."
"Good. You are a man of your word. I like it. Sister, you can go back now. Your husband has to stay. "
Zhu Liya's face darkened. She said with shame and annoyance, "What do you mean? Didn't you say that you would let him go after you got the money? Money is what you want. What's the point of my husband staying with you? "
Xiao Bing also felt strange. "Yes, even if you want to find a prostitute, you should find a handsome one. This man is the modern version of Wu Dalang. Is there anyone who likes this kind of man?"
Xiao Bing could not help but say, "Isn't it a bit unfair for you to do this? What's more, this Dalang … What can he do for you if he stays? Do you need a part-time worker in your casino? "
"A part-time worker?" Brother Biao sneered, "We don't need such a person even if he works for us. To tell you the truth, your Dalang … Oh no, wife, your man has caused trouble. This time, he did not just lose money. He also stole our boss's wife's clothes while our boss's wife was sleeping. "
Zhu Liya's face turned pale. She bit her lips so hard that her teeth were chattering.
Xiao Bing was stunned. He was about to scold Zhang Gui in his mind when he suddenly remembered that there was a girl's underwear in his bag. He immediately gave up the thought of scolding him and said righteously, "It's just a piece of clothing. We can compensate you."
"Humph, it's easier said than done … If only it was that simple. He even tried to molest our boss's wife while she was asleep."
Zhu Liya's body swayed and Xiao Bing hurried to hold her. Zhu Liya gently pushed Xiao Bing's hand away and looked at him gratefully. Then she let out a long sigh and said to Brother Biao, "It's my man's fault. I apologize for him. I can find other ways to make it up to your boss's wife. How about I add another 10,000 yuan?"
Even when this woman was extremely angry, she did not panic at all. Every word she said was well-organized. Her ability and temperament were the best of the best among women.
Brother Biao laughed and said, "Little wife, what you said is wrong. Our boss doesn't lack that bit of money. Even if you take out all your family's belongings, our boss doesn't care. The most important thing is that we can't lose face. If people know that someone molested our boss's wife, and our boss let them go, where would we put our face in the future?"
Zhu Liya frowned and asked, "Then what do you want to do?"
"It's simple. Break his hands and feet and make him a useless man!"
"No!" Zhang Gui fell to the ground and struggled desperately, shouting crazily, "Wife, save me! Wife, save me! Hmm … hmm … "
One of Brother Biao's men walked over and covered Zhang Gui's mouth. But Zhang Gui was still trying to shout. His eyes were full of fear. Then a foul smell came out of the room. He was so scared that he wet his pants.
Zhu Liya was ashamed and angry at the same time. On the one hand, she wanted to find a hole to hide in because of her husband's humiliation. On the other hand, she was afraid that these people would do anything. Although the man on the ground was not a good man, he was her husband after all.
Zhu Liya was willing to pay any price to redeem this man. Naturally, it was impossible for her not to care about this man.
While Zhu Liya was at her wits' end, Xiao Bing grabbed her shoulder. His warm, steady, and powerful hand made Zhu Liya feel at ease. Then she looked at Xiao Bing and saw him walking to her. Looking at those people, she asked, "What if we insist on taking him away? So what? "
"Nothing." It was a man in his thirties who just walked in. He was wearing a pink suit and had his arm around a coquettish woman. He was followed by two bodyguards in black.
Brother Biao and the rest hurriedly straightened their bodies and respectfully bowed to the man in the suit. They bowed and said, "Boss."
The man in the suit held a cigar in one hand and the coquettish woman's butt with the other. He pointed at Zhu Liya with the other hand and said, "Leave her here. Sleep with me for one night and I'll let her husband go."
