When Zhu Maolin came back from the outside, he found that Little Lu was not in the booth. The induction cooker was turned off, and the soup base was no longer hot.
Maybe she just went to the bathroom or something? Zhu Maolin subconsciously had such an idea.
He shook his head and glanced at what he had just bought in his hand. It was a small cake bought from a nearby bakery.
But after waiting for a while, Zhu Maolin still didn't see Little Lu come back. He couldn't help but feel a little wrong. He simply called the department head over. "Has my friend who was working part-time here already left?"
"Ah … I remember now." The minister said apologetically, "I'm sorry. I was so busy that I didn't notice that Mr. Zhu came back. This is the case. Just now, your friend hurriedly told me that she had something to do and had to leave first. She couldn't wait for you, so she asked me to let you know."
"Really?" Zhu Maolin nodded and said coldly, "You just said that she was in a hurry?"
"It seems …" The minister thought for a while, and then said, "It seems that there is something urgent at home. I don't know. But from the looks of it, he seems to be in a hurry. I guess something really happened. "
"En, I got it." Zhu Maolin nodded, and then said directly, "Then, let's settle the bill."
"Welcome next time!"
After leaving the hot pot restaurant, Zhu Maolin glanced at the time. At this time, she might have gone home.
Go back and make a decision early. He told himself so.
Then, after picking up the car from the parking lot, Zhu Maolin remembered the words of the minister of the hot pot restaurant. He thought for a while and picked up the phone, "Hello … Tboy? En, help me check the phone number of the model who shot the short film for us last time. En, the one named Little Lu … Just send it to my mobile phone later. "
As two parties who knew each other, it should be natural to greet each other a little, right?
Soon after, Tboy sent Little Lu's mobile phone number. After dialing all the numbers, he seemed to hesitate.
– She seems to be in a hurry, right? There is an emergency at home or something …
– Today is actually my birthday. Really, look if you don't believe me …
He finally pressed the dialing button and put the phone to his ear. – Sorry, the user you dialed is temporarily unavailable.
Her home … seems to be in this direction.
The engine started.
…
…
In Hou Chen Yuhan's opinion, this should be something that could be rejected.
Hou Chen Yuhan thought, This man in sportswear shouldn't be the kind of person who pesters others … As for me, I have no reason to participate in such a ridiculous bet.
As for the one million … She thought about it, and to be honest, she was indeed tempted. It was just that this place gave her a bad feeling. In this place full of desire and seething desire, her spirit had never relaxed.
Hou Chen Yuhan shook her head. When she was about to refuse, she saw that a few rich ladies outside the crowd had already walked in … It seemed that they had discovered her. At this moment, they were walking over with unpleasant expressions.
Hou Chen Yuhan knew she was in trouble … These rich ladies obviously didn't intend to let her off easily, especially after she quietly slipped away with the excuse of going to the bathroom.
At this time, the other young and handsome man chosen by Liu Zixing couldn't wait to walk to Ajay's side at the gambling table. His face was full of anticipation.
That's right … As long as you gamble for three rounds, you don't have to pay for it. You just have to draw the cards on behalf of others, and you can get a reward of one million. Liu Zixing had directly thrown out one million worth of chips in front of him!
One million, even if you are lucky, you have to let those old and ugly rich ladies play for a few months to earn it!
"I, can I really take it?" But he was still a little worried. This Ajay was the consultant of the casino. It would be strange if he said he was not worried.
Ajay said indifferently at this time, "It's okay. Since Mr. Liu rewarded you, you can take it. Don't worry, the casino won't take your tip. "
One million … tip.
He, who was in the service industry, knew that he and this man who was only ten years older than him were people from two different worlds.
Suddenly, one million in front of him didn't seem to be so attractive … After all, he was just a prostitute.
At this time, Hou Chen Yuhan also walked to Liu Zixing hesitantly. Liu Zixing glanced at her briefly and didn't say anything. He did the same and directly gave her one million chips.
Hou Chen Yuhan suddenly shook her head and whispered, "I don't want this money … Can you take me away from this place later?"
Liu Zixing was taken aback. There are people who don't want money? This was the first time he encountered it … But he was not a completely stupid person. Especially after he asked the mysterious boss for a bet with great courage in a desperate situation, he didn't realize that some things about him had already changed.
He noticed that the woman in front of him seemed to have guessed something and looked back frequently … She didn't look like a lady who worked here, nor did she look like a rich person. Her clothes were simple and elegant, but not noble.
"Are you in trouble?" Liu Zixing said indifferently.
"I … I was dragged here." Hou Chen Yuhan nodded and stammered, "I don't … don't like this place."
"Okay." Liu Zixing nodded, "I said I'll give you one million. I won't take back what I said. It doesn't matter if I take you away, as long as you draw the cards for me. "
Hou Chen Yuhan still had scruples, "But … what if I lose? I … I don't have so much money to compensate you. "
The chips on this table were probably impossible for her to earn in ten lifetimes. She didn't dare to easily get involved in this gamble … unless the other party could give her enough guarantee.
"I will never lose." Liu Zixing's eyes were sharp at this time, "Especially today, especially when it comes to gambling … Don't worry. Even if I lose, I won't let you pay me half a penny. So many people here can testify. If you are still worried, it doesn't matter if you write a certificate now. "
Liu Zixing had raised his voice for the rest of the words so that the people around him could hear it clearly.
Ajay across the table was even more impressed at this time, "Mr. Liu is so courageous! After three rounds, regardless of winning or losing, I, Ajay, am willing to make friends with you! "
"Okay, I will also make friends with you." Liu Zixing nodded.
At this time, the staff sent a brand-new deck of unopened poker cards and opened it on the spot. Ajay smiled at this time and said, "Mr. Liu, please check the cards."
"There's no need." Liu Zixing shook his head, "If you play tricks here, no one will be willing to come again in the future. I believe that if you want to do this for a long time, you won't destroy the Great Wall. "
"Then … let's start." Ajay nodded, then shuffled a brand-new deck of Parker's cards skillfully and put it in front of Liu Zixing, "Mr. Liu, you can cut the cards."
He didn't check it just now, but this time, Liu Zixing cut the cards himself. Of course, his skills were not as good as Ajay's, but he was still a qualified gambler.
"Director … Is it okay for Ajay to gamble like this? If he doesn't play himself, then … "
Feng Shan in the monitoring room frowned at this time and said seriously, "He should have his own plans. Ajay is the disciple of the God of Gamblers. He won't mess around. I think the reason why he did this is to interrupt Liu Zixing's luck. "
"Interrupt luck?"
Feng Shan nodded and said, "Humans have three bad days and six good days. This thing sounds mysterious, but this thing on the gambling table is so strange. No one can say for sure. Only those true gamblers would have some feelings for their own luck … I also heard it from some of the older seniors. For example, this Liu Zixing is now lucky, so he shouldn't leave his position easily. You see, he would rather gamble in the hall than move his position just now. I'm afraid this is the reason. Because this is his financial position … However, if it's borrowed from others, then it's hard to say. Once his luck is interrupted, or he loses once, then it's no longer scary! If someone else replaces it, then it's someone else's luck … "
"It's starting!"
In the hall, Liu Zixing was the first to place a bet. This time, he still pushed out all the chips without hesitation. This kind of courage to bet all his chips every time was amazing.
Some people seemed to have recognized him. After all, such a gambler would always know some people in the city's circle.
"This guy seems to have changed today. I haven't seen such madness before. "
"I heard that he was driven out of the house by his mother and cut off the relationship … Could this be a desperate counterattack?"
"He already has almost three hundred million on hand. If he stops now, although it's not as good as before, at least he has the capital to make a comeback. This Liu Zixing still doesn't know how to judge the situation. "
"Who knows? Anyway, I heard that Black Panther is looking for him crazily … Maybe he is waiting outside the hotel for him to come out. "
"Shh … It's starting. Don't be noisy!"
In front of a deck of cards spread out in an arc, Hou Chen Yuhan stood a little unsteadily. Her palms were full of cold sweat. The young man who was also chosen on the opposite side also swallowed his saliva at this time. His lips were a little pale.
The first game was almost three hundred million … Hou Chen Yuhan and her opponent were just ordinary people after all.
"Maybe it's fate." The man on the opposite side probably had a professional instinct to please women. Although he was flustered at this time, he at least calmed down and smiled slightly, "The fate that we can't resist. This may be just a small time in their lives for them, but for us, we may not encounter it in our lives. I think the magic of fate is probably here … We don't know what will happen in the next second, but because of this, the future seems to be promising, right? "
Promising future … fate.
Suddenly, Hou Chen Yuhan thought of those flower cards that she kept close to her body — those flower cards that represented her preciousness and could be used to buy things that she wanted and changed her life.
Is this also considered … fate?
She didn't know that it took a lot of courage to draw such a card in front of her … Didn't it take crazy determination to choose one from those flower cards?
Her eyes were scattered. Although the opponent said some gentle words, he didn't move. Obviously, he didn't intend to draw first … It was really quite unique in this place.
They could please all women meticulously, but they were always ruthless.
Hou Chen Yuhan took a deep breath, stretched out her hand, and pulled out a Five of Diamonds … A card that wasn't very promising.
In this card draw based on the number of points, an A was only one point … If she let go of a 5, that was a point. It was really a very bad number.
From the looks of everyone's expressions and eyes, Hou Chen Yuhan knew that she was probably the real deal … She subconsciously glanced at the man who let her draw the card and found that he was still calm at this time. At least he looked very calm.
Is he really not worried? Or is it that even if he loses so much money at one time, he doesn't care at all?
"Then it's my turn."
The opponent smiled slightly at this time. The opponent drew a Five of Diamonds, so he had a much higher chance of winning. He also quietly glanced at the technical consultant, Ajay, and found that the other party didn't look at him at all. From the beginning, Ajay's eyes never left Liu Zixing for a moment.
"I'll draw!" The man took a deep breath. Since the technical consultant didn't give him any indication, he could only bite the bullet and draw a card from these poker cards.
It was just that unlike a complete layman like Hou Chen Yuhan, this guy pressed the card on the table and pried open its edge bit by bit. He was almost lying on the gambling table, shouting something that Hou Chen Yuhan couldn't understand.
Something about whether there was an edge or not … The people around also shouted in unison at this moment as if they were possessed.
"It's scary, right? The casino is like this. It can make people obsessed. " Liu Zixing said indifferently at this time, "Look at the people here. They are all forgetful. Even if you ask them who their mother is now, I'm afraid some people can't say it."
Hou Chen Yuhan was startled. At this time, this person was still not anxious at all. He actually discussed this kind of thing with her, "But … but you?"
Liu Zixing said, "I hate this place very much. I hate it more than ever. Look at the people around here. Every time I look at them, I feel uncomfortable. They are so ridiculous, so stupid … they don't know how to cherish. "
"Then why are you still here …" Hou Chen Yuhan frowned.
"I have a reason why I have to come." Liu Zixing stood up, "And there is also a reason why I have to win … Okay, I won. You can get ready to draw the second round."
Win … I won?!
Hou Chen Yuhan turned around in amazement and saw that the man's face was pale at this time. His palms were trembling slightly. He looked at the poker card in his hand in horror. It seemed that he couldn't stand still.
A spade … four.
No matter how big the spade was, it couldn't win the smallest diamond just because of the four and five.
"Gu, consultant …" The man shouted in a panic.
Ajay was still calm at this time. He waved his hand and said, "Give this Mr. Liu the chips. Pay as much as you bet. Get ready for the second round … Give me the cards. "
It was another new set of unopened cards. Ajay still asked Liu Zixing if he wanted to check the cards.
