Chapter 58: I Lost in The Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den
Prince Feng’s mansion.
When Bai Zhe returned to Prince Feng’s mansion, he saw that an employee wearing Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den’s outfit was talking to the butler anxiously.
“What happened?” Bai Zhe came up and asked. The owner of Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den was his good friend—Feng Che. Since he had nothing better to do, he had also invested in half of the gambling den, so he was considered the second boss of Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den.
“Master Physician Bai, you’re back. Where’s the Prince?” The butler asked Bai Zhe hurriedly.
Their Prince was always disappearing, and his location was never specific. When he needed them, he would appear and call for them, but they did not have a way of finding the Prince.
“Che went to the palace to see the Empress Dowager. What happened?” Bai Zhe asked, after seeing the butler’s anxious look.
“Something happened in the Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den. Hurry and tell Master Physician Bai.” The butler told the employee beside him.
“Yes, Master Physician Bai, today, in our gambling den…” The employee did not hesitate to hesitate and immediately told them about Su Ruoxi and her daughter’s incident.
“What? Are you saying Zeyu had lost in the gambling den?” Bai Zhe asked in shock.
“Mm, when I came here, Owner Lan had already lost twice…” Before finishing his sentence, he coincidentally saw Lan Zeyu walking in and said, “Owner Lan is here.”
Upon hearing that, Bai Zhe turned around to look, and as expected, Lan Zeyu walked over alone. However, not far behind him was his good friend—Feng Che, who had clearly returned from the palace.
“You’re dismissed.” Bai Zhe told the employee.
“Master Physician Bai, where’s Master?” Lan Zeyu came over and asked with an upset face.
“Behind you.” Bai Zhe laughed.
Lan Zeyu was stunned, and he turned around to see Feng Che in front of him. “Master, I deserve to die,” said Lan Zeyu as he knelt.
“What happened?” Feng Che asked coldly.
“I lost Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den,” said Lan Zeyu directly without hiding the truth.
“Zeyu, are you speaking the truth? You lost? You even lost the gambling den itself?” Upon hearing that, Bai Zhe asked nosily.
“What exactly happened?” Feng Che asked expressionlessly.
“Today, a mother with her daughter came to the gambling den…” Lan Zeyu explained the incident in detail.
“Where are they?” Feng Che asked with a darkened face.
“I think they’re still at the gambling den,” said Lan Zeyu.
“Let’s go,” said Feng Che. He really wanted to see who exactly had the guts to covet his gambling den. Did she really think that after winning Lan Zeyu, the gambling den would be hers? How naive.
Bai Zhe was also interested as he followed his good friend and went to Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den. Lan Zeyu could only follow behind them helplessly. Anyway, he said what he must, and what was to come next was all up to the Master.
When the trio arrived at the gambling den, they found out that Su Ruoxi had sent someone to take over the gambling den and left. The people Su Ruoxi sent over had also looked at the place briefly before disappearing without leaving any words behind.
Feng Che’s handsome face was as dark as coal as he looked at the crowded gambling den. When he heard that Lan Zeyu had already lost all the deeds to the other party, his blood boiled.
Damn it. He had better not find out who she was. If not, he would definitely not let her off.
“When that woman returns, inform me immediately.” Feng Che told Lan Zeyu before turning around to leave.
“Wow, he’s walking so fast. There’s nothing else to see. Lan Zeyu, if that woman comes again, remember to inform me as well.” After Bai Zhe finished his sentence, he followed his good friend.
Lan Zeyu stared at the duo’s disappearing figure in shock; he did not know how to react. What should he do now? Was the Master blaming him or…?
After being in a daze for some time, he could only return to the gambling den. Not long after, he saw Su Ruoxi coming in with Su Su. Lan Zeyu did not expect Su Ruoxi to return so quickly and hesitated if he should tell the Master and the Master Physician Bai.
“Don’t think about it. Even if you tell them now, they won’t see me when they arrive. What do you think will happen to you then?” Su Ruoxi said while smiling.
Upon hearing that, Lan Zeyu was taken aback and immediately understood what the other party meant. Yes, unless the other party was willing, how could he make her stay until Master rushed over?
“I understand, Madam,” said Lan Zeyu respectfully.
“Let’s talk somewhere else.” Su Ruoxi looked into the lounge and saw a few pairs of curious eyes staring at her.
“Yes, Madam, follow me.” Lan Zeyu said immediately.
Su Ruoxi followed Lan Zeyu to the back of the gambling den, where a quiet but intricate pavilion resided.
“Mm, this place is not bad,” said Su Ruoxi lightly.
“Have you settled your things? Have you thought of it properly yet?” Su Ruoxi sat in front of a wooden table in the pavilion and asked Lan Zeyu.
Upon hearing that, Lan Zeyu did not say anything, and Su Ruoxi did not rush him. She continued, “I did win this gambling den due to a momentary interest. Since I’ve taken it over, I need someone to take care of it; I won’t hide from you. I’m thinking of hiring you to help me look after the gambling den.”
“Master, aren’t you letting me play with it?” Su Su widened her eyes and said.
“Do you know how to gamble?” Su Ruoxi looked at Su Su and said lightly.
“I… I don’t, but I can learn!” Su Su said confidently. Of course, she did not know how to gamble. She was a thief, not a gambler, but she could learn. It seemed like Master’s gambling skills were easy to attain.
“I don’t have the time to teach you, so you’ll just be in charge of the gambling den’s security.” Su Ruoxi rolled her eyes at Su Su.
“Okay! I’ll just be the boss behind the scenes. This is all because I’m too kind,” said Su Su in a self-praising manner.
Su Ruoxi ignored Su Su’s self-admiration and looked at the quiet Lan Zeyu. She said,” I’ll give you a day to consider. Tomorrow, I’ll wait for you here.”
When she finished her sentence, she left the pavilion with Su Su.
Lan Zeyu stared at Su Ruoxi and Su Su’s disappearing shadow in shock.
Initially, he was a gambling addict but was framed for stealing money at the gambling den. When he was chased, Master Physician Bai passed by, saved him, and brought him to Prince’s mansion.
Under Bai Zhe’s treatment, his injuries recovered, and he went to Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den to kill all the people that framed him. Although it was an internecine outcome, he had finally avenged himself.
However, he did not realize that he had implicated them since someone saw him leaving Prince Feng’s mansion. This caused the boss behind the scenes of Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den back then to push the blame to Prince Feng; he had even brought people to the Prince’s mansion.
He was indebted to the Master Physician Bai and Prince Feng, and he was not ungrateful. With his last breath, he returned to Prince Feng’s mansion and explained the incident.
He did not expect that not only did Prince Feng and Master Physician Bai not blame him, based on their strong capabilities, they directly forced the other party to hand over Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den to them. He stayed as Prince Feng’s subordinate and helped him care for Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den.
However, he had never thought he would lose Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den.
