Chapter 83: 061 Yu Jiang (First Midnight)

Translator: 549690339

The Qinglong Association owns eighteen casinos, over 90% of which are unlicensed gray businesses.

Bojinlai is the largest of these casinos. Its entrance is hidden in the deepest part of the F3 underground parking lot of a shopping mall. After walking through a long tunnel and pushing open the glittering golden door, another paradise awaits.

Fortunes could be made or lost overnight here.

Countless men walked in during the quiet hours of the night, with dreams of making a fortune overnight, only to lose themselves in the fleeting pleasures of gambling.

Ye Jian handed over a veil, and Ran Tengxiao covered his mouth and nose with it before entering the main entrance of Bojinlai Casino.

Inside was another kind of paradise, filled with thick smoke and an otherworldly atmosphere that seemed ethereal.

Beyond the noise of rattling dice, the excited shouts of men filled the air.

In those lust-filled eyes, there was only victory or defeat.

However, most of these men tonight were discussing one person.

“That kid was way too arrogant. He is just a punk without even fully-grown hair.”

“Did he cheat? Otherwise, he shouldn’t have won against Xie Zi. That’s just impossible.”

“Are you stupid? Would Xie Zi not notice if he cheated? Since Xie Zi admitted defeat, the kid must be really good.”

Ran Tengxiao squinted and passed through several crowded gambling tables to the inner lounge. He lit some incense and turned on an air purifier, finally feeling a bit more comfortable.

A man inside quickly pulled out a chair for him, laying a thick blanket on it.

After Ran Tengxiao sat down, the man respectfully served him a cup of tea.

Without taking a sip, Ran Tengxiao put the tea aside and asked, “Where is the person?”

Xie Zi looked just like his name – he had a scorpion tattoo from his forehead to the back of his neck, which made him appear extremely terrifying.

He respectfully answered, “That kid challenged our entire casino alone, then slipped away after calling us a bunch of trash. Our people couldn’t stop him, and he said he’d come back on the 15th of this month.” Ran Tengxiao asked Ye Jian, who was standing nearby, “What day is it today?”

Ye Jian replied, “It’s the first day of the month.”

Ran Tengxiao glanced at Xie Zi, “You lost as well?”

Xie Zi looked somewhat indignant, “That kid’s cheating technique was very clever, but if he comes back next time, I won’t let him get away.” “Since you admit he’s clever, it means you’re simply no match for him.”

Xie Zi sullenly responded, “Yes.”

Ran Tengxiao sighed, “I’m too late.”

Ye Jian thought to himself, why does the hall master seem so disappointed?contemporary romance

The air was no good here, so Ran Tengxiao didn’t stay long. He left swiftly.

Upon breathing the fresh air outside, the color returned to his face, and he asked, “What progress has been made at Ji Chang?”

Ye Jian shook his head, “There are no leads.”

“Big brother, you’re so careful, even leaving us with such a tough challenge after your death. Qinglong Association was founded by you, so would you just stand by and watch it decline?”

Ran Tengxiao casually walked along the street with his hands behind his back. In the middle of the night, there weren’t many people out on the streets.

“Could they have already left the country?”
Ran Tengxiao shook his head, “No, my big brother is a very traditional person, especially when it comes to foreigners. He wouldn’t send his wife and children abroad.”

“With no leads, searching would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Two months’ time simply isn’t enough.”

“Put some pressure on Shou Chang. He used to be my big brother’s confidante.

He surely knows some secrets that we don’t.”

“Also, keep investigating Yu Jiang.”

Ye Jian glanced at Lin Feng, who had suddenly joined them, and silently retreated to one side to observe the surrounding situation.

“The deeper we investigate, the more mysteries emerge. Do you still remember the girl who saved Madam Jiang last time? Who is she?”

Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, “It’s normal for someone with Madam Jiang’s identity to be surrounded by extraordinary people. We shouldn’t get too caught up on this person. She’s not a variable, just a coincidence.”

“No,” Ran Tengxiao smirked, “I have a feeling that this girl is somehow related to Yu Jiang.”

Lin Feng asked, “What kind of person did you see Yu Jiang as?”

Ran Tengxiao looked at the night sky, and his eyes exuded a subtle sense of emotion.

“Every time I met my brother, she was always silently following him. At first, I thought she was mute and always wanted to tease her. But she never showed any emotion, like she didn’t have any.. She looked very ordinary, but her eyes were gorgeous, as if they held countless stories…”
