Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Settling Accounts (3)_1

However, since she had the ability to deal with that beast, there was no point in letting her dad and Uncle Zhou risk their lives for her, she didn’t even want them to worry about her.

So she answered vaguely, "Let the officials handle this matter. I will write a report tomorrow and let Zhang Bo deliver it to the county government office to bring that villain to justice. You all should not worry about this."

Everyone knew that confronting that man would be fruitless and could not think of a better solution, so they reluctantly agreed to Cai Wei’s suggestion. After some more discussion, seeing that it was getting late, the Zhou family members said their farewells and left.

At rest

As Mu Zhongqing was back, the rooms at home were rearranged. Of the three rooms, Mu Zhongqing and the Du couple occupied one, Wen’er and Wu’er another, and Cai Wei and Cai Fei the third.

To her dismay, Cai Wei was planning to quietly deal with that scoundrel, Lü Junchen, in the night, but if she shared a room with Cai Fei, how could she think of moving?

After the sisters lay down, Cai Fei was distraught over the destruction of their restaurant. She was concerned and worried, lying down for quite some time but unable to fall asleep.

Cai Wei was in a hurry to get things done and could not wait for her to fall asleep. Besides, even if she did, who was to ensure she wouldn’t wake up halfway through? Therefore, she secretly used her Thought to contact the Old Turtle.

"Great Immortal Turtle, would the sleeping drug you gave me last time cause harm to the body?"

The Old Turtle leisurely said, "No."

"Great!" Overjoyed, she put Fei’er to sleep and quietly opened the window. She slipped out of the window and quietly ran towards the endless night.

Zhu Yue, who was resting on the roof, was harnessing his martial arts skills to resist the cold. It was his turn to be on duty that day. Seeing Cai Wei rushing out of the room, he hurriedly leaped off the roof and followed her closely.

...

Turning a street corner, the noise gradually grew, and a substantial casino came into view.

It was the busiest time of the day for the casino. Men with heavy pockets of money excitedly entered this den of iniquity with dreams of striking it rich overnight, or finding a sexy woman for some pleasure.

Cai Wei followed behind them and entered the casino.

Seeing the well-built casino with carved beams and painted rafters, she was quite taken aback. At the entrance of the main hall stood a pair of engraved red wooden screens, each flanked by a young woman in red. Upon seeing a new guest, they would walk up with a smile and asked coyly, "Sir, are you here to gamble, or to have fun?"

The men would state their purpose, and the women would lead them into the casino with their swaying hips.

Cai Wei snorted coldly. She would not have expected that disgusting swine, Lü Junchen, to have some business acumen. Instead of placing a group of burly and ferocious bouncers at the entrance of the gambling hall, he had two beautiful girls. These young women’s figures were graceful like willows, their smiles blooming like spring flowers. One glance at the incoming guests and many men would be lured in.

Most of the visitors to the casino came for the money, but if they could enjoy the view on the way, no one would refuse.

"Miss, are you here to..."

Seeing Cai Wei entering, one of the girls in red robes looked at her in astonishment. Women had strict rules to follow in this era, and reputable girls would not show their faces casually. Unless they were prostitutes like these girls, you would never find a girl from a good family in a casino.

"I’m looking for your boss," she said lightly.

Zhu Yue, who was hiding in the background, was so furious he almost ground his teeth to dust.

He was fuming at Cai Wei. She was not adhering to the principles of womanhood and had sneaked into this hedonistic and decaying place to meet her sweetheart in the middle of the night. Such shamelessness was infuriating, and all the more frustrating considering that his master regarded her with deep affection, even assigning him and his brothers to protect her. If he’d known she was such a shameless woman, even if it meant disobeying his master, he would have taken his own life in front of him instead of staying to protect her.

The woman in red, hearing Cai Wei’s statement, looked as though she had an epiphany. Covering her mouth, she chuckled lightly, "Miss, you’re late. The boss is already resting in the Dark Fragrance room tonight. He even called for Soft Jade to be his companion. Even if you go now, you’ll not have a share in his attention!"

Upon hearing this, the corner of Cai Wei’s mouth quivered. Fluttering in the wind for a moment, she quickly regained her calm. She said to the maiden in red, "You don’t need to worry about the rest. Just tell him that someone from Bafu Restaurant is here. He will come to see me."

The girl in red laughed derisively and said sarcastically, "Who do you think you are? The boss is in the middle of having a good time. I’m not going to disturb him. Miss, please go back. Why not come early tomorrow, when the boss hasn’t chosen anyone, and try your luck then!"

Cai Wei was irate. Being mistaken for someone trying to climb into bed was infuriating enough. But when she heard she couldn’t see the breeding pig and was being humiliated, she could no longer suppress her raging anger. She sneered and, without even looking at the girl in red, took a step towards the inner room.

"Hey, miss—"

Upon seeing Cai Wei intending to barge in, the woman in red rushed forward, reaching out to grab Cai Wei’s arm.

Although this woman in red looked delicate and helpless, she was a martial arts practitioner. Her moves were fast and accurate. In a flash, she captured Cai Wei’s wrist. Sneering coldly, she said, "Miss, even a toilet bowl should have two ears. Haven’t you heard? This is the Hongyun Casino. Do you think you can barge in at will?"

Cai Wei was caught off guard because she did not expect this woman to know martial arts or that she would suddenly take a shot. But upon hearing her words, she gave a grim smile. After the laughter, she made a swift counterattack, hitting the woman.

The woman in red was no match for her. Within a few moves, Cai Wei kicked her onto the engraved red wooden screens. With a loud crash, they both fell over messily!

Seeing a troublemaker, a group of fierce-looking men rushed over and quickly surrounded Cai Wei. They shouted threateningly, "Where did this wild girl come from? Has she grown a leopard’s gall? How dare she make a scene in Young Master Lü’s casino?"

Cai Wei sneered and said, "I don’t care if he’s a young donkey or a young horse. In short, let him come out and see me, or I will go see him."
