This Dynasty Hotel was not very tall, but it occupied a very large area. Just the fountain in front of the door was half the size of a basketball court.
Everyone they met along the way was unusually respectful to Song Ying – for Luoqiu who knew the local language, this was enough to determine the relationship between the Dynasty Hotel and the Song family.
"This hotel is a chain hotel under the Song Dynasty Group. This is the headquarters," Song Ying said indifferently. "Song Dynasty. You should know from the name. This is the Song family's business."
"You plan to show me around the Song family's business?" Luoqiu looked around.
Even though it was late at night, there were still many cars coming in and out. Most of them were luxurious cars. The guests were either rich or respectable.
"No," Song Ying said directly. "We've already toured this place. It's now my working hours. Thanks to you, my work today has been delayed until now. "
"I'm really sorry," Luoqiu said apologetically.
At this moment, three men, one in front and two behind, quickly walked toward Song Ying. Song Ying pointed at the man in the lead and said, "This is Otas, the general manager of this hotel."
"Miss Ying." The general manager named Otas nodded at Song Ying. Then, he looked at the young man beside Song Ying with a puzzled expression.
In the general manager's impression, this little princess of the Song family rarely had male companions around her. Moreover, from the looks of it … this person's clothes were somewhat ordinary.
However, this general manager did not dare to look down on someone who could make the little princess of the Song family accompany her. "Miss Ying, who is this gentleman?"
"Don't worry about him. He came with me." Song Ying waved her hand and led the way into the hotel. As she walked, she said, "No need to waste time. Report as we go … Are the documents ready?"
"They are ready. We can execute them after you sign them," Otas quickly said. At the same time, he waved his hand.
The two assistants he brought along hurried to Song Ying's side. Then, they took out the documents from their briefcases.
Song Ying walked and looked at them as she said, "Start reporting."
Otas quickly said, "There's nothing special about our daily work. There are two things. The first thing is that Ser Surico wishes to book our Dragon Room for his fortieth wedding anniversary with his wife. "
Song Ying quickly signed a document and didn't look up when she heard this. "He's not qualified. Tell him that Ruihe Hall can be used by him … Why is this week's maintenance fee 10% higher than last week?"
Ortas said, "Oh, it's because of the new air conditioners. It was reported last week."
"Hmm … I remember now." Song Ying nodded. "What's the second thing?"
Ortas said, "The second matter is about the gambling hall."
Otas's voice was a little low as he subconsciously turned around to look behind him. From the beginning, Song Ying was escorted by Otas and the other two while Luoqiu followed behind unhurriedly.
"You can just say it. I told you not to mind it …" Song Ying also realized what Otis was afraid of, so she subconsciously turned around. However, before she could finish her sentence, she frowned. "Where is he?"
"This … this, that mister should have been following behind us just now. When did he disappear?" Otas quickly looked at the two assistants. "Did you see him?"
The two assistants shook their heads blankly.
"I'll send someone to look for him right away!" Otas quickly looked at Song Ying.
"Then why aren't you going?" Song Ying said in a low voice. "If you can't find him, don't come to work tomorrow!"
But you just said don't mind it …
Song Ying could not help but look anxious. Even if she did not have a good impression of Luoqiu, she did not dare to simply lose him.
This was the grandson of her grandfather, her elder brother who had been searching for decades … She could not even imagine how furious Song Tianyou would be if she lost him.
"I'll go look for him too." Song Ying slapped the document in her hand on one of the assistants.
But just as Song Ying walked out, she already saw Luoqiu — but there was a little girl in pajamas beside Luoqiu.
"I saw this child walking alone and looked quite scared. Since you are busy, I won't disturb you. Hmm … "Luoqiu held the little girl's hand and walked to the front of everyone. Then he asked," This child seems to be lost. Can you help find her parents? "
"Oh … please leave it to me." Otas quickly stood up and said, "You, go and check it out!"
The two assistants hurriedly took out their phones.
Song Ying walked directly to Luoqiu and said in a low voice, "Please don't disappear without a word next time. This will cause trouble!"
Her voice was a little loud.
Luoqiu nodded and said softly, "I'll be careful … but can you lower your voice? You'll scare me."
Luoqiu looked at the little girl who was holding his hand … The little girl raised her head and looked at the angry Song Ying in horror. Then, she hid behind Luoqiu.
Song Ying was stunned. Then, she opened her mouth but the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
…
"We've found the child's parents."
Soon after, Otas came back with his men and brought back the news of the missing child's parents.
The little girl was now brought to an empty living room.
Song Ying asked the chef on duty to cook a lot of food. Unfortunately, the little girl seemed to be very afraid of this big sister. From the beginning to the end, she only hid behind Luoqiu and refused to let go of his arm to protect him.
'Am I that scary?' Song Ying could not help but laugh at herself. She simply did not want to provoke this child.
"Have you found them? Where are they? "Song Ying looked at Otas and asked.
Otas said, "The couple is now playing in the gambling hall. Our men have informed them and they're on their way here … "
As he spoke, Otis glanced at the little girl and said, "This couple probably took advantage of the fact that the child was asleep and secretly went to the gambling hall to play. But they didn't expect the child to wake up in the middle of the night and not see them, so she ran out to look for them … It's okay, Miss Ying. It's just a false alarm. "
Just as Otas had said, the little girl's father was quickly brought here.
"I'm really sorry for causing you trouble …" Probably because they knew that they were in the wrong, the couple didn't say anything and looked vexed.
The hotel would not criticize the guests, and Otis only said a few words to be more careful next time. That was all he could do to get rid of the guests.
The child's parents planned to take the child away. But at this moment, the little girl pulled Luoqiu's sleeve. Luoqiu squatted down, "Is there anything else?"
"Thank you, big brother!"
Unexpectedly, the little girl directly kissed Luo Qiu's face, then glanced at Song Ying timidly, and quickly ran to her parents' side.
Song Ying's expression was quite complicated. She felt that in the child's world, she had been categorized as the bad guy.
"Yes, this child is a beauty. She'll definitely be beautiful when she grows up." Song Ying said sarcastically, "Do you want to consider it?"
Luoqiu stood up slowly and completely ignored Song Ying's suggestion. Instead, he asked, "Is there a gambling hall here?"
"Isn't that nonsense?" Song Ying rolled her eyes, "Why do you think there are so many people here at this time of night … Oh right, Otas, you mentioned the gambling hall just now, right? What's the matter? "
Otas glanced at Luoqiu.
Song Ying said, "Just say it. I said to ignore this person."
But you just told me not to come to work tomorrow …
Otas cleared his throat and said, "It's like this. Our people have found the whereabouts of the 'God of Gamblers'."
Song Ying's eyes lit up, "You've finally found him? Have you made contact with him? Where is he? "
"I didn't expect him to be hiding in a manor near the suburbs!" Otas quickly said, "Our people haven't made contact with him yet … But it seems that other people have found him too. From what I can see, these fellows probably have the same intention. "
Song Ying said, "The new 'Supreme King of Gambling Tournament' is about to begin. The other families are probably going there because of him and want to invite him to represent them … There's no need to wait. We can't let the other families beat us to it. Get our people to make contact with the God of Gamblers. No matter how high the price, we must invite the God of Gamblers … I don't want to lose to that Zhong woman from China again this year! "
Otas hesitated, "This … I heard that the representative from the Four Seasons Group is the disciple of the God of Gamblers. If our purpose of inviting him is to deal with our own disciple, I'm afraid he won't agree so easily. "
"You guys go and state your conditions first. If it doesn't work out, I'll meet him personally." Song Ying snorted.
"Okay, I understand." Otas then said, "Oh right, Miss Song, the person you asked me to bring over is here. Do you want to meet him now?"
"Is it the other way around?" Song Ying nodded and said calmly, "Then send him over."
Song Ying then walked to Luoqiu and smiled, "Come, I'll show you something good."
"Something good?" Luoqiu was curious.
Song Ying said calmly, "You'll know when you see it … Oh right, do you have phobia of blood?"
"Phobia of blood?"
Song Ying only smiled mysteriously.
…
…
It was a very luxurious suite with a living room, a master bedroom, and everything else — in fact, rather than a suite, it would be more accurate to call it an independent villa in the Empire Hotel.
There was a small bridge in front of the door and a fish pond. There was also a rugged rockery in the garden. In fact, this independent villa could be described as a mansion.
When Song Ying accompanied Luoqiu across the small wooden bridge, she suddenly stopped and said, "Do you believe that there are crocodiles down there?"
"Mm … what species are they?" Luoqiu walked to the railing and looked down. He asked curiously, "Are they hiding there? How many are there in total? "
This fellow …
Song Ying sneered and walked down the small bridge. "You'll know what species they are later. Let's go."
After passing through the garden in front of the door, Otas and the others accompanied them to the open-air tea house outside the villa.
The square tea house was dug deep into the ground, about 60 centimetres below the ground. When Luoqiu and the others arrived, there were already several men in black suits waiting for them.
At the same time, there was a man in his thirties lying on the ground … he was a Caucasian.
This guy was only wearing a white shirt and trousers. There were bloodstains on the white shirt. Some of the bloodstains were completely dark. It was likely that he had been beaten up for a long time.
"Miss Ying." The people waiting greeted her in unison.
Song Ying sat down and pointed to the seat beside her, indicating for Luoqiu to sit down as well. At this time, the Caucasian man who was lying on the ground quickly crawled over. However, he was quickly pressed to the ground by the men in suits.
"Miss Ying, please let me go! Please let me go … I won't dare to do it again. I won't dare to do it again! "The Caucasian man was terrified and begging for mercy.
"This person is a gambler." Song Ying looked at Luoqiu and said indifferently, "But he cheated in our gambling hall and was caught by us. The evidence is conclusive. According to our rules, if you are caught cheating, one of your hands will be cut off. "
Hearing this, the Caucasian man who was pressed to the ground struggled desperately, "Miss Ying! Let me go! Let me go … don't cut off my hand! I beg you … I beg you … I, I was forced to do it … let me go, let me go … "
"Forced to do it …" Song Ying suddenly nodded, "Actually, we are forced to do it many times. If you follow our rules, the money you win is yours. If you lose, it's also yours. However, you cheated, so you should know what kind of consequences you have to bear. "
Song Ying waved her hand.
The men exerted more force, then pulled out the Caucasian man's right hand and put it on the tea table. Then, another man took out a machete.
"No … No!! Ah —!! "
Without any mercy, the man with the machete directly covered the Caucasian man's arm with a white cloth, and then chopped the machete in his hand.
Under the Caucasian man's shrill scream, a broken hand fell directly on the wooden floor under the tea table.
The Caucasian man had fainted from the pain. After the big men released him, he collapsed on the ground, motionless.
"Get rid of him." Song Ying glanced at him indifferently.
At this time, several men directly lifted the Caucasian man's body, and then picked up the broken hand at the same time.
They didn't go far, but directly threw the man into a pond not far away.
In the darkness, the predator was stimulated by the smell of blood, and the water suddenly became turbulent. In the darkness, a huge creature suddenly pounced on the Caucasian man's body, crazily biting and tearing.
The screams sounded again, but it didn't sound for long before disappearing. Only the splashing water and bubbles from the pond were still rippling on the water surface.
"Did you see the species of this crocodile?" Song Ying looked at Luoqiu at this time, revealing a beautiful smile.
Luoqiu said indifferently, "Didn't you say that the rules were only to cut off his hand? Why did you kill him?"
Song Ying said slowly, "He cheated, so he cut off his hand. But after all, he cheated, and he succeeded several times. This matter can't be spread because it will affect the reputation of our gambling hall, so we can only kill him. Grandfather said that you can rely on your own ability to steal something from our Song family, but if you rely on cheating, then I'm sorry. "
Luoqiu asked curiously, "Since you can successfully cheat, isn't it a reflection of strength?"
Song Ying smiled slightly, "That's right, it's a reflection of strength. It's a pity that our Song family is stronger, so we set the rules. We can say that this is strength, but we can also say that this is cheating. "
Song Ying stroked her long hair, "On the other hand, if one day we meet someone stronger than us, our life and death will be in the hands of others. Just like this man, maybe I will be thrown to feed the crocodiles, or caught as a slave, and played with until I'm rotten. "
She stood up, then walked in front of Luoqiu, bent down, put her hands on the back of Luoqiu's chair, and pressed down on him, "My parents died in an assassination. The enemy is our Song family's opponent."
She leaned forward, almost touching Luoqiu's face, "Tomorrow, maybe tomorrow you will also have the same ending … Do you still want to stay in such a Song family?"
Luoqiu looked at Song Ying's eyes, and suddenly said softly, "So beautiful."
Song Ying was startled, and then subconsciously looked at her collar. She bent down too low, and the scenery in front of her chest was visible.
She frowned, "Pervert!"
Luoqiu shook his head, "It's your eyes, and the thing connected to your eyes."
Song Ying snorted and stood up, "Think about it carefully, whether you are suitable for this world. Behind the riches and honor of this world, there are mountains of corpses and seas of blood. "
