Chapter 725: Chapter 724 Miss Wen Has a Unique Way of Complimenting People
At the moment the man’s voice fell, Mu Chengxi carelessly threw the three cards in his hand onto the table, Divine Card…
After the recent commotion, all the Koreans in the casino had gathered around, and when they saw Mu Chengxi throw the Divine Card, they couldn’t help but gasp in astonishment; such cards had never been seen before in a casino.
“Congratulations to this gentleman for winning!” The dealer picked up the three Heavenly Cards from across and threw them on the table, speaking with a calm demeanor.
Mu Chengxi looked up at the man’s unsightly expression and let out a cold, impatient laugh, “You want my money, and you want my person too, you are very brave indeed!”
Just as Mu Chengxi was speaking, the casino suddenly quieted down, and hurried footsteps could be heard, causing everyone to unconsciously look towards the direction of the elevator.
At this moment, a man in a light blue suit walked at the forefront, followed by several men in black suits, hurrying along.
When the man in the light blue suit approached their gambling table, the eyes of the four men who had just gambled with Mu Chengxi lit up instantaneously.
“Xiao Zhong, it was this man causing trouble on your turf, and he even brought out the Heavenly Card. I suspect…”
Before the man could finish speaking, the man called Xiao Zhong raised his hand and struck him twice across the face, then quickly retracted his hand and respectfully bowed to Mu Chengxi.
“Mu Zhong did not know that Master Xi was here. It was my fault to let these blind fools affect Master Xi’s mood. Please, punish me!”
All those around who saw the casino boss’s actions involuntarily inhaled sharply. They could not have imagined that Xiao Zhong, who could call the shots in P city, would make such a move.
The very people who were just naming their price for Wen Xin unconsciously took a step back, but the man with the silver needle stuck in him stood still, unable to seize any chance to leave.
“Um… Xiao Zhong…”
“Xiao Zhong, we really didn’t know this gentleman’s status… we… didn’t mean any offense…”
“Xiao Zhong…”
“Master Xi, I will handle this matter!” Mu Zhong seemed to ignore the pleading voices behind him, his gaze lowered as he bowed to Mu Chengxi, waiting for him to speak.
“Hmm, take them away and deal with it,” Mu Chengxi spoke gently, with one arm around Wen Xin, lightly pinching her cold hand as he gave Mu Zhong a response.
Upon receiving Mu Chengxi’s response, Mu Zhong quickly signaled for the men behind him to take away the four who had had eyes for his family matriarch.
“Master Xi, Miss Wen, would you like me to show you inside for some fun?”
With a fawning expression, Mu Zhong looked at Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin. Although it was his first time meeting Wen Xin, he had already heard too much about her in the group chat, especially about how much Master Xi valued her, so he couldn’t ignore Wen Xin’s presence.
“Do you still want to go inside for some fun?”
Mu Chengxi’s hand gently pinched Wen Xin’s waist, reminding the somewhat distracted Wen Xin.
“No, I’ve lost interest!”
Wen Xin glanced at the flattering Mu Zhong and instantly lost interest in continuing to play there. It seemed less fun to lose money in her own family’s establishment.
Raising her wrist, she checked the time, “It’s about time, we can go to the auction now.”
“Hmm, then let’s go to the auction!” Mu Chengxi affectionately wrapped his arms around Wen Xin as they stood up, his gaze finally resting on the chips on the table. “This money…”
“The money is all mine, please have Mu Zhong exchange it for cash and put it on this card, I’m going to use it to have some fun downstairs!”
Half-squinting her eyes, Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi, who seemed to have already picked up on the displeasure in her tone. He gave a faint smile, lifting his head to look at Mu Zhong.
“Go take care of it.”
Mu Zhong, standing beside the two of them, heard Wen Xin’s imperious tone loud and clear, coupled with Mu Chengxi’s indulgent manner, and noted it all.
He suddenly felt that the young matriarch wasn’t as haughtily delicate as others had said, but rather somewhat cute when she was angry.
“I’ll get right on it!”
In front of Mu Chengxi, Mu Zhong always remembered his place even though he was now a big shot in this arena that no one dared to mess with. When Mu Chengxi gave an order, he would see to it personally.
At the moment, everyone in the casino was watching as the formidable Xiao Zhong counted the chips himself…
Within ten minutes, Mu Zhong returned to Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi’s side with a black card in hand.
“Sorry to have kept Master Xi and Miss Wen waiting, the card now has seventy million on it. Please take good care of it, Miss Wen.”
Mu Zhong was an extremely clever person; he knew who held the absolute power in the Mu family. Therefore, without hesitation, he handed the bank card directly to Wen Xin, knowing it was the right choice.
Without any pretense, Wen Xin reached out her hand to take the bank card Mu Zhong handed over, chuckled softly, and spoke in a relaxed tone, “You’re more sensible than Mu Bei!”
Hearing Wen Xin’s praise, Mu Zhong couldn’t help feeling a bit happy for a moment, but soon, he fell into contemplation. Being more sensible than Mu Bei—although it seemed like a compliment, it somehow felt like an insult as well…
“Miss Wen… your way of praising people is truly unique!” Mu Zhong muttered a few words under his breath with his head down, deliberately keeping his voice low. This kind of compliment felt worse than none at all.
Seeing Wen Xin in the mood to joke with Mu Zhong, Mu Chengxi’s previously tense heart relaxed slightly. He had been worried that the recent events might have affected her mood.
“Let’s go to the auction!” Mu Chengxi suggested gently, his arm around Wen Xin’s waist. She just faintly nodded in agreement, allowing Mu Chengxi to lead her away.
Watching the two powerhouses leave, Mu Zhong wanted to follow but heard Mu Chengxi speak in a cool tone, “Don’t come, you’ll disturb the atmosphere of the auction.”
The disdain in his voice made Mu Zhong stand still, questioning his life choices. He began to wonder what he had done wrong and whether Mu Chengxi disliked him to an unreasonable extent.
Mu Zhong took out his phone from his pocket and found a group chat named “Dong Dong, Zhong Zhong, Nan Nan, Bei Bei.”
Zhong Zhong: “Twenty minutes ago, I found out that Master Xi and Miss Wen were at my casino, and I immediately made an appearance, punishing those who troubled Master Xi and Miss Wen…”
Dong Dong: “No surprise, you’ve been disliked! You deprived Master Xi and Miss Wen of the pleasure of dealing with the scum themselves!”
Nan Nan: “If I’m not mistaken, your presence didn’t please Master Xi, and you exposed Master Xi’s assets in front of Miss Wen…”
Bei Bei: “Let me boldly guess that you were sanctioned by Miss Wen… When Miss Wen acts of her own accord, even Master Xi stands aside. You’ve interrupted Miss Wen’s performance—congratulations, Little Zhong Zhong, your hopes of returning home are getting dimmer by the minute!”
