Her eyes and brows were even more beautiful than the magnificent hall.
Harker stared intently at the girl downstairs, a hint of uncontrollable greed and lust in his eyes. He couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Lin, is this the one who's with you?"
Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and examined it, concealing the satisfaction in his gaze.
He chose this outfit, and it certainly looks good on him.
As a useless beauty in a "golden cage," Ruan Qing'an is indeed qualified, which explains why Lin Qisheng hasn't gotten so angry that he shot her.
Hearing Huck's question, he took a sip of his drink and said, "Just a stray cat. She came with me on a trip and has nothing to do with business. Let her play, Mr. Huck."
"Oh, I see."
Hack suddenly realized, but his gaze remained unblinking—he felt he could guess Ruan Qing'an's identity.
It's probably a plaything that Young Master Lin keeps around to amuse himself. During the last transaction, although things went wrong at the end, Hack had entertained Young Master Lin before, calling on beauties of all styles, but Young Master Lin remained as steady as Mount Tai, without changing his expression.
At the time, Young Master Lin made excuses, saying he was not interested in women, and Hack was wondering if he was impotent. But now it seems that Young Master Lin's standards were too high, with such a gem preceding him.
Even though she was a used woman, Huck didn't mind. After all, women were commodities, and he had sold quite a few of them.
Surely Young Master Lin wouldn't be so petty?
Harker's scarred face wore a lewd smile as he asked, "Young Master Lin, how long has this woman been with you?"
What are you trying to say?
Lin Chen paused, turned his head, and said with a half-smile.
Hack swallowed hard, revealing an expression that every man understands, and raised his glass to Lin Chen: "Young Master Lin, we're both men, let's not pretend we don't understand."
"If you get tired of playing with him, Young Master Lin, how about giving him to me?"
Hack smiled and said, "Actually, I can give you a few more tiers of profit on this deal, just to make friends. What do you think, Young Master Lin?"
"..."
After a brief silence, Lin Chen suddenly chuckled, placed his wine glass on the railing, and then beckoned to Hack with his finger.
Seeing this, Hack didn't suspect anything and quickly went over.
But just as he got close—
Click.
Hack froze completely, his lewd expression still lingering on his face, frozen like a statue.
The dark muzzle of a gun was pressed against his temple.
Before Hack could even see Lin Chen's movements, a pistol was already pressed against his head, and the safety had been pulled off. If that shot landed, Hack would be dead for the day.
Most importantly, at such a close distance, his underlings wouldn't have had time to come to the rescue. Besides, his underlings had been waiting outside to entertain Lin Chen. Hark never expected that their conversation would turn into this situation!
Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Hack's forehead, and he gave an awkward laugh: "Young Master Lin, what... what is this?"
"This gun is good."
A smile played in Lin Chen's dark eyes.
Hack said nervously, "Yes, yes... Young Master Lin, your gun must be the most expensive and best."
But Lin Chen chuckled lightly, his voice suddenly turning cold: "No, I mean any gun is fine, because it can easily make your head explode like a watermelon."
"Just one shot and your head will explode."
At this moment, Hack was speechless, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, because when he saw Lin Chen's cold, dark eyes, he suddenly realized—
Lin Chen wasn't joking; he was serious!
Hark's lips were trembling, and he could barely speak, while Lin Chen let out a laugh: "Besides, are you even a major client of the Lin family? Do you think you're qualified to negotiate with me?"
"Don't think about anything else, understand? Just do your business well. If you dare to have any other ideas, then good luck to you."
As he spoke, Lin Chen put away his pistol and glanced sideways at Hack.
Faced with his sarcastic smile, Hack could only bow with an apologetic smile: "I'm sorry, Young Master Lin, I was being presumptuous."
Even so, when he lowered his head, there was still a hint of resentment in Hack's eyes. He was, after all, a leader. Lin Chen not only refused to give him the woman, but also dared to threaten him?!
Just then, a commotion suddenly erupted from the casino lobby downstairs. Ruan Qingan's figure was swallowed up by the crowd, and no one knew what had happened.
Lin Chen frowned slightly, put the gun away, and prepared to go downstairs: "Thank you for your hospitality today, Mr. Hark."
"No, no."
When he looked up again, Hack spoke with an unchanged expression.
Just before Lin Chen went downstairs, a sentence was casually mentioned, but to Hack, it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, capable of stirring up a monstrous wave of terror.
"I forgot to introduce her, she's my stepmother."
Young Master Lin's stepmother...
Huck realized what had happened and wished he could slap himself.
So that means this woman is backed not only by Lin Chen, but also by Lin Qisheng—Lin Qisheng has a bigger reputation. Although everyone says he is not as powerful as his son, his brutal nature is even more so.
For a moment, Hack felt a secret sense of relief; he really didn't want to clash with that madman, Lin Qisheng.
Meanwhile, in the casino lobby downstairs.
Ruan Qing'an stood by the gambling table, clutching the hem of her skirt, and sighed helplessly, "I told you, I really don't gamble."
"Not gambling? What are you doing here if you're not going to gamble?"
At the gambling table, another man scoffed. He was wearing an extremely expensive luxury suit, his hair was slicked back, and he stared intently at Ruan Qing'an: "I've seen women like you before. Enough is enough. Playing hard to get will only make things boring."
037 was furious: "How dare you covet my ancestors?!"
Ruan Qingan remained silent for a long time.
She had traveled through too many mission worlds, and she was not unfamiliar with gambling. In fact, in the small worlds of the past, she could gamble away the enormous assets of an entire listed company. However, Ruan Qing'an herself did not like gambling.
She was just there to watch the fun, solidify her persona, and take a break to see how insignificant their cheating was.
As a result, we were stopped here.
At this moment, the man continued, "This area of the casino is incomparable to those outside. Those are all small and insignificant establishments. Those who can gamble here are not ordinary people."
"Is this outfit rented? There have been women like this before, who come here specifically to hook up with rich men under the guise of gambling."
The man paused, then said with a wicked smile, "Let's make a bet."
"If you win, I'll give you the money; if you lose, it's mine."
