Chapter 533: 249 Calculating Accounts (First Update)_2
âThatâs a manâs paradise, what business does a young lady like you have there?â
Zhu Xiangxiang felt uncomfortable from the gaze, furrowed her brows, and said coldly, âLooking for someone.â
âOh, your boyfriend? Let me tell you, if itâs your boyfriend, you can dump him early. Itâs fine to have fun, but if heâs addicted to it, many people lose everything overnight. Such men are not reliable.â
Zhu Xiangxiang didnât make a sound because she thought what the other person said was true.
She never expected that Zhu Shaodan would become obsessed with gambling. It was absurd.
âLet me tell you, last year, I had a classmate from elementary school who lost his wifeâs money in Bojinlai Casino. He lost everything, even his underwear, and still owed the casino a huge amount of high-interest loans. The interest rates were astronomical. His wife couldnât take it, divorced him, remarried with their son, and the debt collectors would threaten to chop off one of his fingers for every day without repayment. Tsk tsk... In the end, he couldnât take it anymore and committed suicide by jumping off a building. That was horrible. Thatâs why you should never get involved in gambling, drugs, and such; once youâre involved, youâre done for.â
Zhu Xiangxiangâs heart skipped a beat, and she blurted out, âHow dare they force someone to die in broad daylight? Isnât there any law?â
The driver laughed, âLittle girl, youâre too naive. Do you know who the boss behind Bojinlai Casino is? If you knew, you wouldnât be saying such naive things.â
Zhu Xiangxiang really didnât know; this was a realm she had never been exposed to before.
She asked subconsciously, âWho is it?â
âMaster Xiao of the Qinglong Association, have you heard of him?â
She coughed, and her voice was immediately swallowed by the darkness, without even an echo.
Zhu Xiangxiang felt a little scared and took a step back. After a moment of thought, she turned on her phoneâs flashlight and braced herself to go downstairs.
The underground parking lot was large and dark, with no end in sight and not a single person to be seen.
She stepped on something by accident, making a rustling noise. Zhu Xiangxiang shrieked like a frightened bird, her voice echoing in the empty space.
Zhu Xiangxiang looked down at the flashlight, relieved to see it was just a plastic bottle.
After walking several hundred meters, she finally saw lights.
A few men leaned against the pillars, chatting and smoking, speaking vulgarities.
Zhu Xiangxiang cautiously approached, and one man with yellow hair noticed her, raising an eyebrow to one of his companions. That man stepped in front of Zhu Xiangxiang, teasing her, âThis isnât a place for a young lady like you. Why donât you come and play with us?â
Zhu Xiangxiang was both frightened and scared, forcing herself to remain calm, she said, âI... Iâm here to find someone, please get out of my way.â
âLooking for someone? Looking for a romantic partner? You can just find me.â The man laughed lewdly, prompting his companions to join in the laughter.
Zhu Xiangxiangâs face turned bright red as she clenched her teeth, âYou... donât go too far, you wonât be able to handle my brother.â
Zhu Shaodan was good at fighting, so he should have no problem dealing with these men.
