Poison Doctor Mother Baby - Chapter 52

Chapter 52: Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den – Lan Zeyu

“Damn it, who is it?” The man with the sword was stunned for a moment, before he yelled out upsettingly.

He looked up and saw a woman carrying a child with a stick of candied fruits in her hand, and his sword was stabbed right through it. It was obvious that his sword was previously blocked by this woman.

The spectators looked at Su Ruoxi, who had suddenly barged in with shock. All of them knew those few people. They were the guards of the Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den, and were all very strong.

Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den was the only gambling den in Heavenly Phoenix City. It was not that there were no other gambling dens, but they were all taken care of by Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den. Hence, there was only Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den in Heavenly Phoenix City.

Usually, there would always be people causing trouble at the gambling den, so everyone was not a stranger to these guards at Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den. Thus, no one felt pity for the people that they were beating up.

In the first place, this was a world where the strong were respected, and the weak’s lives were not worth any form of sympathy.

In the world of the strong, weak people’s lives were the cheapest.

“Who are you? How dare you interfere with the matters of Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den? Do you not want to live anymore?” The leader of the guards glared at Su Ruoxi.

“I want this person!” Su Ruoxi ignored the other party’s fierce glare and said.

“Hahaha, did I hear you wrongly? Just based on you? Who do you think you are? Do you think you can just take the person that Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den wants to get rid of?” The man laughed out loud.

“Lady, this man is a thief. Just look at him and you’ll know that he’s not a good person. Besides, Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den are people you shouldn’t offend. You should just leave.”An elder reminded her kindly as he felt that the baby in Su Ruoxi’s arms was very cute.

Su Ruoxi smiled and nodded towards the elder, but she had no intentions of leaving. She was not a nosy person, but her baby was slightly interested in the man on the floor, so she naturally would not let her be disappointed.

“I want him. Just name your condition,” said Su Ruoxi lightly.

Upon hearing this, the man who talked raised his eyebrows, and with a closer look, he noticed that although Su Ruoxi and Mo Lian had average looks, the clothes they were wearing were made of premium silk. It seemed like they were of an extraordinary background.

An idea flashed across his mind as he grunted and told Su Ruoxi, “since you want him so badly, it can be done. This person had stolen something from the guests at our gambling den, causing them to be very unhappy and affected our business. You can have him if you want, but you need to follow the rules of our den. Do you dare to go to our gambling den and have a gamble? If you win, he’s yours; if you lose, then I’m sorry. What do you think? Do you dare to do it?”

“You want to bet with me?” Su Ruoxi asked uncertainly.

“Why? Are you scared? If you are, hurry on and get lost.” The man misunderstood and thought that Su Ruoxi was scared.

“I’m afraid that you’ll regret it, so I asked again to be sure.” Su Ruoxi laughed.

“What a joke. Why would I regret it?” The man laughed sarcastically.

“Show us the way!” Su Ruoxi said directly.

“Someone, bring this person along and let’s go,” said the man upon hearing Su Ruoxi’s words.

A line of people walked straight to Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den.

“Baby, do you want a gambling den to play with?” Su Ruoxi asked casually.

“Okay, Mother!” Baby said happily. Even though she had never seen her own mother gamble her money, she knew that no one was her mother’s match.

The bunch of people in front all laughed coldly in their hearts, without even caring about their words, after they heard the conversation between Su Ruoxi and her daughter. It seemed like this pair of mother and daughter were not from Heavenly Phoenix City, and knew nothing about Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den.

They would be dealt with properly in a while…

Not long later, Su Ruoxi and Mo Lian followed a few people and arrived at the gambling den. There was a golden plaque with black words hanging on the door. The words on it were ‘Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den’.

“Master…” Mo Lian was hesitant. She had never seen her master gamble. It was easy to go into gambling dens, but hard to come out.

“Don’t worry. Inform Su Su to send someone here to take over the gambling den in an hour.” Su Ruoxi said in her heart.

Mo Lian nodded. Even though she did not know what Master was thinking, she believed in her abilities. Since she had said it, it seemed like Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den was going to change owners today.

Before they went into the gambling den, she secretly sent out a signal that specifically belonged to the Pavilion of the Assassins.

Following the few people into the gambling den, Su Ruoxi realized that their business was booming. The lounge was roughly around 200 square meters and the tens of gambling tables were filled with people.

At this point, there were different shouts of ‘last bets’ of different volumes and tones springing up from all over the lounge, making the place seem very popular. Su Ruoxi nodded in secret, and was very satisfied with the den’s location, interior design, and business. It seemed like she had earned another profitable business.

The man, who was talking to Su Ruoxi before, brought her straight to the table in the middle. After whispering to a man in blue, he looked at Su Ruoxi, as if he was watching a show.

When the man in blue saw Su Ruoxi and Mo Lian, he was slightly taken aback. He did not expect that these two women really dared to walk into the gambling den. Even though there were women who gambled in The Land of the Dancing Phoenix, there really were not many of them.

In addition to the guards’ words of these two women coming to the gambling den because of a man they were dealing with, it made him very curious.

Su Ruoxi looked up and saw the man in blue. He was wearing a blue cotton robe, with a touch of gold at his sleeves and collar. His hair was tied into a ponytail, his face well-defined, and was very handsome. There was something playful about him, but yet he also exuded distinguished vibes.

He looked dashing with his big eyes, thick eyebrows, and bright gaze. And he looked like a profligate son. His pair of clear eyes were deep as well. With one look, Su Ruoxi knew that this man had tricks hidden up his sleeves and was not as simple as he looked.

After thinking for a bit, she felt that it was right. Based on the way the previous group of people talked to him, this man in blue should be the person in charge of the gambling den. It would definitely not be a simple-minded person who could be in charge of such a complicated business.

“This Madam, I’m Lan Zeyu – Assistant in Charge of Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den. I have heard of what happened before, but may I ask? Why would you want this man?” Asked Lan Zeyu as he pointed towards the unconscious man.

“It seems like I don’t have to explain to you. Just know that I want this man today. How would you like to gamble?” Su Ruoxi said lightly with a smile.

“Haha, okay! Since you’ve said so, let’s follow the rules. See the real deal on the gambling table. If Madam wins, you can take this man away, but if Madam loses, this man needs to stay…”

After hearing Su Ruoxi’s words, Lan Zeyu was slightly stunned before he smiled and said, “Okay!” Su Ruoxi agreed.
