My beautiful CEO wife
Chapter 519: Gambling Genius

Chapter 519: Chapter 519: Gambling Genius

Pfft!

At the gambling table, the elites of the upper social class all laughed, a sales manager such as him, ordinarily wouldn’t even have the chance to meet them.

Such a lowly person, actually saying he wanted to gamble with them, not even considering whether he had the qualifications to do so.

Immediately, someone with a mocking smile said, "I thought you were someone of status, but you’re just a sales manager. I have to say, for someone of common birth to achieve the position of sales manager in a company like Miss Leng’s, it’s quite commendable no matter how you look at it.

"However, don’t you think that compared to us, you’re a bit out of your league? Haha, we Westerners aren’t like you Easterners, who speak with restraint. We are very straightforward in our speech, and I hope it doesn’t hurt your self-esteem."

Then another person, with a faint smile, said, "Moreover, do you know who stands before you? Hillman, from a European family with over a thousand years of history, an esteemed noble with a hereditary title."

"Facing such a person, you commoners should quickly recognize your place, show your respect and fear, and yet you are here spouting nonsense, claiming you want to gamble on behalf of Miss Leng, isn’t that a bit too arrogant?"

"Hehe, I think so too. How did our gathering suddenly produce such an impetuous fool?"

"Sigh, in this world, not every place is like our high society where everyone conducts themselves with grace. There are always some ignorant commoners out there desperately seeking to assert their presence."

"So annoying. Where is the organizer of this banquet? Don’t you have security? Can you please escort this gentleman out? How can we continue enjoying our event with him here?"

The crowd buzzed with discussions.

Their words were very sharp and malicious, utterly saturated with scorn and disdain.

Even Xiao Zheng was taken aback, not expecting these people to lack such refinement.

But soon, the situation took an unexpected turn.

The speakers were all men, and each used the most caustic and scornful language they could think of to attack Xiao Zheng.

And as soon as they began their tirade, many of the women present became discontented, their faces flushing with anger.

"Based on your behavior today, do you even deserve the title of nobility from Eagle Country? Where have all the years of education gone?"

"What is a noble? To be kind, resilient, benevolent, but none of these virtues are in you, instead you are sharp-tongued, petty, and full of envy."

"If it weren’t for your masculine faces, I would have thought you were those spiteful, odious women from the legends."

"Yes, being with such ’gentlemen’ is indeed shameful. I will certainly make sure to spread the word of their behavior tonight, to let the whole Eagle Country know how they treated a hardworking, ordinary person with exceptional talent."

The women at the banquet were sharp-tongued and merciless, thoroughly rejecting what the men had just said.

These men, hearing these ladies speak in such a way, couldn’t help but turn red with embarrassment, feeling a sense of shame.

They all fell silent.

Even if they wanted to retort, they dared not. Who would risk offending so many women at a banquet? If they did, they could kiss their high society lives goodbye.

Women are gems, pearls, beautiful snow lotuses above the heavens, to be cherished; this is a long-standing tradition in Eagle Country. To go against such a tradition is courting death.

Xiao Zheng watched this scene, dumbfounded.

This... before he had said anything, a swarm of high society ladies fiercely and bravely knocked down his rivals, and it was a victory as effortless as breaking rotten wood.

Then, he found that many of these refined ladies and socialites were casting ambiguous glances at him, containing a meaning that any man would probably understand.

"Hehe, it looks like my charm hasn’t diminished over the years," Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but smile smugly, but suddenly he felt a sharp pain at his waist and turned his head to see the beautiful CEO waiting for him with an angry look.

Xiao Zheng could only helplessly spread his hands, indicating his innocence.

Hillman, upon seeing this scene, had his facial expression darken to the extreme.

He didn’t care at all about the attitudes of those socialites and ladies. With his status and position, getting these women was as simple as could be.

What he desired now was Leng Ruobing.

From the moment Leng Ruobing entered the hall, he had been deeply captivated by this beauty. Thank God, he had never seen such a dazzling woman in his life!

Even more precious, Leng Ruobing was not just a pretty face; she possessed exceptional insight and extraordinary intelligence. Her abilities and qualities had even deeply impressed Hillman.

For someone like Hillman, who had seen many women, attracting a crowd of them hardly required any effort. But he had never met a woman like Leng Ruobing, whose appearance and abilities were both top-notch.

Moreover, this woman had a mysterious Eastern allure.

All of this made Hillman unable to resist the urge to approach Leng Ruobing.

That was why he had earlier suggested that Leng Ruobing join the gambling table for a couple of rounds.

Hillman was a genius in gambling, and his teacher was a very famous sage in the field, so his gambling skills had reached an almost divine level.

In the upper echelons of Eagle Country, possessing such unparalleled gambling skills was a symbol of status, position, and honor, and anyone with such talent would have countless fans.

Hillman believed that by doing so, he would definitely capture Leng Ruobing’s attention.

Then he could take the opportunity to deepen their understanding of each other and take the relationship a step further.

But.

All of this had been completely sabotaged by Xiao Zheng, a nobody who had popped up from who knows where!

Hillman stared coldly at Xiao Zheng, his gaze almost murderous.

Xiao Zheng’s face bore a light smile, completely unconcerned.

A pampered young master compared to the Evil God? They were truly from two different worlds.

Not on the same level.

At this moment, Leng Ruobing suddenly did something that surprised everyone.

Even Hillman’s eyes widened in disbelief.
