Chapter 18 Entering the Imperial Era
The moment Wen Nianchu stepped into the casino, several sharp eyes immediately locked onto her.
The security officer was a woman.
Under the inspection of the metal detector, she calmly spread her arms and allowed the security personnel to check every corner of her body where she might hide anything.
"Bag." The security officer said coldly.
Wen Nianchu nodded and placed the small bag on the tray.
The male security inspector on the side pried open the foundation box in Wen Nianchu's bag and checked the cream to see if there were any blades or pinhole cameras inside.
In fact, I checked too carefully.
Wen Nianchu even saw one of the security guards pick up her bank card and scan the card back and forth many times with a purple light in one hand.
When they checked Wen Nianchu's bottle of spray, the other party just unscrewed the bottle cap, took a look, and said nothing more.
"Is it okay?" Wen Nianchu asked softly.
"Come in."
After finding nothing, the security officer returned the bag to Wen Nianchu and said politely.
After all, the identities of people who come to the Royal Casino are not necessarily simple. They only need to do their job well, and the rest is not their business.
Wen Nianchu raised the corner of his lips slightly, took the bag, and walked calmly into the revolving door.
What comes to your face is a wave of noise and luxury.
Inside the casino, the crowd was boiling, money was piling up like mountains, and faces were distorted under the lights, full of greed and madness.
As soon as Wen Nianchu stepped into this extravagant place, his eyes immediately fell upon a row of black-clad bodyguards neatly lined up around the casino.
Among those faces, she recognized the familiar figure at a glance.
Xie Yue.
He stood tall and straight, his uniform outlining his broad shoulders and narrow waist, and his bow tie was tied meticulously.
Wen Nianchu had no expression on his face.
He had actually arrived a long time ago, and appeared here in this identity.
He is quite smart. After all, as a bodyguard in the imperial era, he can wear a dagger on his waist to prevent it from being taken away by the security guard.
Wen Nianchu quickly looked away, maintaining a nonchalant expression on his face, as if that was just a stranger he had never met before.
"Miss, please show your bank card to exchange for Chinese currency."
A waiter came over with a smile and took Wen Nianchu to exchange Chinese banknotes.
These exchanged banknotes are chips.

Bai Yiqiu had come to this place specifically tonight and had someone guard the entrance, waiting for Wen Nianchu to fall into his trap. After all, it was a shame that he hadn't been able to let the driver run over Wen Nianchu to death yesterday.
He turned on the expensive lighter beside him, and a crisp sound was made when it opened and closed as he lit the cigarette.
"Finally here." He narrowed his eyes and watched the slender figure passing through the crowd.
The young master of the Zhao family beside him followed his gaze and said:
"The one in the black jeans? He looks pretty good."
"Be good?" Bai Yiqiu sneered, tapping his lit cigarette in the ashtray. A fierce look flashed in his eyes. "This Miss Wen is the most arrogant. She relies on her wealth to speak rudely to me. She even cheated me out of several hundred million yesterday."
"Mr. Bai, please don't be angry." Zhao Gan, standing beside him, immediately understood, a look of obscene excitement on his face. "To deal with such a proud woman, you have to discipline her properly. You have to make her understand who's the boss. If she doesn't obey, you have to punish her severely, beat her to death, and make her completely submissive!"
Zhao Gan's words obviously touched Bai Yiqiu's heart.
He had already begun to imagine Wen Nianchu kneeling and begging for mercy in the casino.
Then, his mood brightened up, he grinned, showing his white teeth, made a neck-cutting gesture with his fingers, and said with a wicked smile:
"Wait until she loses everything and goes bankrupt. Then what's left to do? Won't it be your turn?"
He was cheated out of 300 million yuan and was scolded by the old man.
Bai Yi Qiu remembered this account.
Since she dared to step into his territory, she would never leave unscathed.
He had investigated and found that Wen Nianchu had never been to a casino.
Do you think winning money is easy?
Let her lose everything today, and it would be best if she could also win back the Wen shares that she inherited when she was twenty years old, so that the dead old man will look at him with admiration.
"Is Young Master Bai planning to kill her?" Zhao Gan came closer, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "I'll go meet this Miss Wen right now."
…
Wen Nianchu found a group of people walking towards him.
There were several men with greasy faces. The fat man in the lead was surrounded by people and had a thick gold chain hanging around his neck. The sound of it shaking could be heard with every step he took.
Those disgusting gazes were fixed on her, causing her to frown unconsciously.
"My little beauty~" The fat man grinned, obviously coming prepared, "Do you want me to teach you a few games?"
"What do you want to play?"
Wen Nianchu tilted his head and blinked.
The outfit she wore when entering the casino today was just a simple ponytail. As she tilted her head, the ponytail swayed slightly, making her look innocent and cute, which was out of place in the noisy casino.
Wen Nianchu glanced at the far end of the hall, where there seemed to be many eyes silently watching her. When she saw Bai Yiqiu sitting on the sofa, she instantly realized that this person was sent by him to deal with her.
Oh, it turned out to be the appetizer sent by Young Master Bai.
"How about playing some simple dice?" The fat man rubbed his hands, his eyes glued to her collarbone, which made Xie Yue frown beside him.
Just as his fat palm was about to rest on Wen Nianchu's shoulder——
“Bang!”
A thick stack of Chinese banknotes that had just been exchanged was thrown directly at his face, causing him to stagger back two steps.
The stack of banknotes fell to the ground with a clatter, but no one dared to bend down to pick them up.
The whole audience fell silent instantly.
After Wen Nianchu finished fanning with the money, he slowly withdrew his hand, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his lips:
"Play? Sure."
She casually pulled out a card from her bag and threw it directly onto the gambling table with a loud bang:
"I'll play with you."
"One round, I bet you have a dirty hand."
Wen Nianchu curled his lips into a smile, his dark eyes were chillingly cold, and this aura directly made Zhao Gan, who was standing opposite him, feel a little fear in his heart.
The whole audience was in an uproar!
There are many arrogant people in the casino, but this is the first time I have seen someone so arrogant just after entering the casino and before even winning a game.
This kind of confidence is not something that ordinary people can possess.
What was even more frightening was the almost indifferent look in her eyes, as if the outcome had already been decided and she was merely there to collect a debt.
Too crazy.
She is still a young girl, and you can tell at first glance that she has no experience.
Zhao Gan was stunned at first, then he grinned, and the fat on his face squeezed out a greasy smile.
"Hahaha! Little beauty, do you know my nickname?" He slammed the table, making the chips clatter. "I'm the Royal Dice Demon! I've been here for decades, and no one dares to play dice with me!"
His eyes wandered over Wen Nianchu unscrupulously, and a sneer rolled out of his throat.
"Okay, let's bet! But--" He licked his lips, "If you lose, you have to stay with me tonight, okay?"
Such nonsense made most of the men around envious.
After all, these people don’t think Wen Nianchu can win this game directly.
Wen Nianchu half-closed his eyes and looked at this person, saying lazily:
"Let's play."
Bai Yi Qiu, who was far away, felt vaguely uneasy.
Where does this Wen Nianchu get the confidence from?
He had clearly checked it out, and Wen Wan also said that she was a second-generation rich waste.
