Chapter 142 - 142 136 133 The Beauty Bets on Looks
142: Chapter 136 Chapter 133: The Beauty Bets on Looks 142: Chapter 136 Chapter 133: The Beauty Bets on Looks Feng Zhixiao grinned and said, “All the guests have arrived, we can almost start the ribbon-cutting!”
“Has everyone really arrived?” Suddenly, a voice like that of an oriole bird came from behind the crowd.
Ye Chen was startled, the voice sounding somewhat familiar.
He quickly turned around and saw Ms.
Yan wearing a black dress with a large black flower on her chest, perfectly covering the deep ravine between her fullness.
Ye Chen exclaimed in surprise, “Ms.
Yan!”
“Hmm!” Ms.
Yan, walking gracefully like a cat, approached Ye Chen.
Behind her followed a flower gardener, carrying a flower basket.
Ms.
Yan’s arrival made everyone’s eyes widen, each person seeing Ms.
Yan differently.
In the eyes of the onlooking citizens, Ms.
Yan was a mature, enchanting, and seductive lady; in Ye Chen’s eyes, however, she was a woman of different identities.
In the eyes of Zhang Yantong, Li Ruo, Secretary Liu, and others, Ms.
Yan was a very mysterious woman with powerful connections.
“Ms.
Yan!” Everyone almost simultaneously stood up, especially Secretary Liu, who nearly ran over, almost bowing and scraping to Ms.
Yan.
“Everyone, please sit.
I’m just an unexpected guest!” Ms.
Yan flashed a smile.
“This…” Ye Chen awkwardly chuckled, the invitation wasn’t sent by him, and Feng Zhixiao and the others didn’t know Ms.
Yan.
Embarrassed, Ye Chen said, “Ms.
Yan, could you please do us the honor of cutting the ribbon?
I hope you won’t refuse!”
“Alright!” Ms.
Yan nodded and said, “This is my first time cutting the ribbon for someone else!”
Then, the ceremony host immediately readied the ribbon, and Ms.
Yan stood in the middle, the spot originally meant for Ye Chen.
However, to make it up to Ms.
Yan, he gave her his spot, and Ye Chen himself moved to the far side, right next to Feng Zhixiao.
“Brother Chen, let me switch spots with you!” Feng Zhixiao hurriedly pushed Ye Chen inward, forcefully pushing him so close to Li Ruo.
Li Ruo frowned and glared at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen gave Li Ruo an awkward smile and angrily said to Feng Zhixiao, “You little rascal, push me again, and I’ll lose it with you!”
“Hehe, Brother Chen, I just wanted you to get closer to your sister-in-law!” Feng Zhixiao’s voice was quiet, but Li Ruo overheard it, her face turning red, her hands trembling slightly while holding the scissors.
Internally she thought, Ye Chen, that jerk, how dare he leave yesterday without my permission!
Clutching the scissors, she wished she could cut off that naughty part of Ye Chen.
The sound of firecrackers started, and everyone spontaneously began cutting the ribbon.
Red ribbons were being cut, and the onlooking citizens at the gates clapped enthusiastically.
Xiao Er, with a large group of students, distributed Crystal Coins at the door, ten each until they were gone.
To prevent anyone from collecting multiple times, each person who received Crystal Coins had to enter the entertainment city.
Soon, all thousands of Crystal Coins were distributed.
“Ladies and gentlemen, why don’t we try our luck inside today?” Ye Chen grinned.
“Alright!” Ms.
Yan was the first to nod.
She took out a stack of bills from her wallet and said, “I only brought this much money today, let’s go try our luck!”
Zhang Yantong and Fang Qin followed Ms.
Yan inside, Secretary Liu, having official duties, left the scene in a hurry.
Li Ruo, accompanied by Lin Ziwen, stood at the doorway without moving, which puzzled Ye Chen a bit.
Perhaps this little lady was holding a grudge against him.
He quickly walked over and said, “Xiao Ruo!”
“Call me Mr.
Li!” Li Ruo huffed.
“Uh, okay, Mr.
Li it is!” Ye Chen, out of options, awkwardly said, “Mr.
Li, let’s go inside!”
“Hmph!” Li Ruo gave Ye Chen a glare but internally cursed, this jerk, why wasn’t he this obedient yesterday, today he changes his tone so quickly.
What a jerk!
Li Ruo rolled her eyes at Ye Chen, then turned and entered the casino.
As the casino had just opened, Ms.
Yan wasn’t lucky, losing over two hundred at the slot machines before moving to dice games, where she promptly lost over two thousand.
Then she tried the Russian roulette and lost even=”.
However, Zhang Yantong seemed to have better luck, following Ms.
Yan from the slot machines to dice games, from dice games to Russian roulette, winning over a thousand in one round.
“It seems my luck isn’t great today!” Ms.
Yan sighed.
“Hehe, Ms.
Yan, look, my luck isn’t so bad!” Zhang Yantong opened her palm showing she had already changed the small denomination chips for one hundred each.
“Yeah, young people always have good luck!” Ms.
Yan looked up trying to find Ye Chen but saw him at the doorway, arguing about something with Feng Zhixiao and others.
Li Ruo seemed to be spitefully playing the slot machines.
However, when a heap of Crystal Coins spat out from the slot machine, she immediately smiled, her previously pouting mouth now grinning.
She excitedly grabbed Lin Ziwen’s arm and said, “Ziwen, look, I won!”
Clattering…
A heap of Crystal Coins spilled from the tiger’s mouth, and Li Ruo was as excited as a child.
On the other side, Feng Zhi Xiao frowned and said, “Brother Chen, we’re in trouble now.”
“What happened?” Ye Chen asked anxiously.
“I’ve heard news from the Southern District.
It seems Mr.
Crown Prince is planning to make a move against us!” Feng Zhi Xiao said gloomily.
“Last time we taught Mr.
Crown Prince a lesson; I guess this time he’s coming to reclaim his turf!”
“Don’t be afraid!” Ye Chen grinned and said, “If someone doesn’t provoke me, I won’t provoke them.
But if someone provokes me, we must eliminate them root and stem!”
“Alright!” Da Hei clenched his fists and said, “Ye Chen, don’t worry, with me here, not even Mr.
Crown Prince or Yan Bu’er could scare us off.
We’ll send them packing just the same.”
“Da Hei, you’re just boasting!” Feng Zhi Xiao glared at Da Hei and said, “How many followers does he have, and how many do we have?
Mr.
Crown Prince has five to six hundred men in the Southern District alone.
With a single call, he can gather over a hundred.
And our total, all in all, barely reaches seventy.
We’re no match for them.”
Feng Zhi Xiao didn’t want the casino he had managed to set up after great difficulty to be ruined just like that.
The last time Mr.
Crown Prince caused a racket, he was busy for days fixing up the mess.
If it happened again, who knows if anyone would dare come to the casino anymore.
“When war comes, send the generals; when flood comes, pile up the earth!” Ye Chen said, holding a cigarette, and turned around suavely.
In that moment of turning, however, he caught Ms.
Yan’s affectionate gaze.
Ye Chen paused, then immediately flashed a smile at Ms.
Yan.
Ms.
Yan rolled her eyes at him, but inside, she felt as sweet as sugar and continued playing other gambling devices.
Ye Chen walked excitedly toward Li Ruo, whose luck at gambling was incredibly good.
She was winning whatever she bet on and had racked up several hundred yuan in no time.
“Xiao Ruo!” Ye Chen pushed Lin Ziwen aside.
Sensibly, Lin Ziwen stepped back a few paces.
Ye Chen bent down, brought his face close to Li Ruo’s earlobe.
Li Ruo felt a wave of shyness but didn’t try to evade.
Instead, she continued pretending to play the slot machine and ignored Ye Chen.
Ye Chen leaned in closer, his lips almost touching Li Ruo’s cheek.
He wore a comical smile and said, “Are you ignoring me now, Xiao Ruo?”
Pfft…
Li Ruo suddenly covered her mouth and laughed, nearly crying with laughter.
She glared at Ye Chen and said, “Hmph, ignoring you?
Weren’t you the one who ignored me yesterday and just left?
Don’t expect me to pay you any attention today!”
“Oh, is this revenge?” Ye Chen laughed heartily.
Gurgle gurgle…
A sound of the slot machine swallowing coins echoed.
Li Ruo immediately became annoyed, “Ye Chen, you jinx, you made me lose over a hundred!”
Ye Chen saw it was true—the slot machine had swallowed up more than a hundred points of Li Ruo, equivalent to over one hundred yuan.
Ye Chen chuckled mischievously, then pulled a handful of Crystal Coins from his pocket and handed them to Li Ruo, saying, “To make up for it!”
“Hmph, as if I want yours.
I only want what I win myself!” Li Ruo happily continued playing the slot machine.
Knowing Li Ruo was in high spirits, Ye Chen didn’t disturb her further and walked towards Ms.
Yan’s direction.
Ms.
Yan was resting her chin on her hands in the No.
1 VIP room, engaging in a game of Texas Hold’em.
The minimum bet was a hundred, and it was crowded.
Although it was a VIP room, some people brought their families, hence it was surrounded by people.
However, the audience could only watch silently—speaking, even if winning a game, counted as a loss.
So, everyone behaved very well.
Ye Chen sat down next to Ms.
Yan and immediately caught a whiff of her light body fragrance.
He couldn’t help but take a few more sniffs and said, “Hehe, Ms.
Yan, you smell wonderful!”
“You flatterer!” Ms.
Yan’s lips curled up, but she glared at Ye Chen and said, “Should I follow this hand?”
Ye Chen glanced at Yan’s cards—one ace, but the face-down card was a ten.
Ye Chen smiled and said, “It’s only the second card, why not follow?
Of course, you should!”
Then, the Croupier continued dealing the cards.
A third ten appeared, exciting Ms.
Yan.
Having a pair gave her the confidence to keep playing.
Looking at other players’ cards and their expressions, none seemed as confident as her.
After a round, Ms.
Yan actually had three tens.
Her eyes shone brightly.
She smiled at Ye Chen and said, “You really are my lucky star!”
“Haha, not necessarily, everyone’s following closely; they must have good cards too!” Ye Chen’s gaze wasn’t honest.
It lingered on the dark flower, peering inside and catching glimpses of her proud cleavage.
Ms.
Yan caught Ye Chen’s roving eye, but she didn’t mind.
Attracting men, at the very least, proofed she still had charm.
A few looks wouldn’t hurt; instead, it boosted her confidence.
