Chapter 447: Chapter 447: Won a Casino on a Whim (First Update)
The mother and daughters continued to play games with great enthusiasm.
An Yan just watched them from the side.
Every now and then, he would give Xiang Xiang some pointers on riding a motorcycle or join in with Nian Nian to whack some moles, enjoying himself immensely.
However, this scene left the mid and high-level management staff who later arrived at the Pyramid Casino gaping in astonishment.
The news of Carnegie’s death had already spread with terrifying speed.
What intrigued people was that, despite over a dozen deaths, the Las Vegas police had not made a move.
Even the FBI and other departments had consistently ignored the matter.
This abnormal reaction made many finally understand.
This man from M Country, not even the powerful agencies dared to provoke him.
As for the other big shots in Las Vegas, they were all maintaining silence at this time.
In such an eerie atmosphere, the casino staff naturally came in a state of panic.
But what they didn’t expect was to witness this heartwarming scene filled with childlike joy.
As Xue An’s personally appointed new casino manager, Wu Yu naturally stood at the forefront.
Seeing that Xue An was with his family, Wu Yu didn’t dare to approach and interrupt, so she just stood quietly.
Since she stood there, the casino staff naturally didn’t dare to move either.
Thus, a very peculiar scene unfolded in the esports hall.
On one side was a family joyously playing games.
On the other side, all the mid and high-level executives of the Pyramid Casino waited respectfully.
It wasn’t until a good fifteen minutes later that Xue An finally glanced over their way.
“What’s going on?”
Wu Yu took a step forward, “Mr. Xue, these are all the management staff of the casino, they all wanted to meet you!”
Xue An laughed, “Meet me?”
“Yes!”
At that moment, several men stepped forward from behind Wu Yu,ranging from black to white, all bowing respectfully to Xue An.
“Mr. Xue!”
As they bowed, all the employees behind them bowed in unison as well.
“Mr. Xue!”
Xue An nodded slightly, “Now that the casino is fully managed by Wu Yu, do you have any objections?”
“No… no objections at all!” the few leading individuals trembled as they hurriedly responded.
Who would dare to object?
The bloodstains from Carnegie on the floor haven’t even been cleaned up yet!
“Good! Since you say there are none, I will take it that there really are none. But if I find out that someone harbors other intentions later on, then…”
Xue An didn’t finish his sentence, but everyone understood the meaning—many were so frightened that they trembled all over.
In the face of absolute power, any scheming is a joke.
“All right, disperse now!” Xue An waved his hand.
After these people had gone, An Yan asked with some surprise, “Husband, what was that about?”
Xue An smiled, “Nothing much, just played a few hands and won this casino!”
An Yan nodded, “Oh! That’s how it is!”
Her tone was as calm as still water, showing no particular reaction.
At this moment, however, Wu Yu was incredibly excited.
Just think, yesterday she was still a tour guide and today, she had become the manager of this luxurious casino.
It was like a dream.
But she knew very well, it was all because of Xue An.
So she made a secret resolution, she must not let down the expectations Xue An had for her.
But what she didn’t know was that Xue An didn’t care about these matters at all.
He simply appreciated Wu Yu’s clear-headedness, and thus casually gave her an opportunity.
When night fell,
it was of course unnecessary for Xue An to return to the previous hotel.
The Pyramid itself had an ultra-luxurious hotel.
Guo Xiaoliang and his wife, along with the members of the previous travel group, had also been arranged with places to stay.
After all, having spent a few days together, Xue An felt that these people were quite nice.
However, following this incident, everyone held Xue An in great awe, and even Guo Xiaoliang no longer acted as casually as before.
Xue An just smiled at this and then said to Guo Xiaoliang, “You won so many times before, it must have been due to your mathematical calculations, right?”
Guo Xiaoliang nodded, “Yes!”
“Well, would you be interested in staying to help Wu Yu manage this gambling house?”
“Me?” Guo Xiaoliang pointed at himself.
“Yes! Your math skills are good. Staying here could help improve some of the operations, and it won’t interfere with your other activities!”
Guo Xiaoliang’s eyes lit up, but he still looked at Cai Lalan.
His henpecked nature was undoubtedly on full display.
“As for your wife, she’s most suited to be the head of security for this gambling house!” Seeing Guo Xiaoliang’s concern, Xue An said with a smile.
Cai Lalan immediately nodded in agreement.
What a joke.
These were words from the top martial artist, who would dare disagree?
Moreover, Cai Lalan had secretly made a phone call to her family just before.
Upon hearing that Cai Lalan had met Xue An,
the Patriarch of the Cai Family, who was over a hundred years old and had long since retired from worldly affairs, immediately snatched the phone away.
After asking for a detailed account of the situation,
the old man who had been at the helm of the Cai Family for decades, having weathered countless storms, made an instant decision.
Whatever Xue An said, they were to agree.
Absolutely not to disobey.
They must maintain a good relationship with Xue An.
Cai Lalan understood that for a martial family like the Cai Family, Xue An was akin to the sun and the moon in the sky, unattainable!
Now that they had the opportunity to get close, they naturally had to seize it.
This could even be a once-in-a-millennium chance for the Cai Family to soar to the heavens.
With the couple staying behind, they helped lift a burden off Wu Yu’s shoulders.
However, there were countless issues left behind by Carnegie that Wu Yu had to deal with one by one.
This night was destined to be sleepless for many.
Meanwhile, in the room, Xue An finally managed to coax the two little girls to sleep.
Then he got up and went to the living room.
At that moment, An Yan was playing a horror game, her face pale.
The haunting images that occasionally flashed across the huge TV screen made An Yan tremble from time to time.
Yet, despite this, An Yan stubbornly played on.
Xue An found it both laughable and adorable.
With An Yan’s current cultivation level, aside from the likes of the Ghost King and other powerful figures from the underworld, ordinary ghosts couldn’t even come close to her.
It could be said that ghosts and gods would steer clear of her.
But this did nothing to alleviate An Yan’s fear when she played horror games.
Shaking his head, Xue An was about to get up.
An Yan hurriedly said in a trembling voice, “Honey, where are you going?”
“I’m going to make a phone call!”
“To whom?”
“To Old Zhao and the others. I’m asking them to send a few people over. Wu Yu can’t manage such a big gambling house by himself, right?”
“Then can you make the call here? I’m scared!”
Xue An: “….”
As soon as the phone dialed and rang once, Zhao Xuehui picked it up.
“Wow, the sun must have risen in the west today, for you to actually remember to call me!” joked Zhao Xuehui.
Xue An also laughed when he heard this.
The reason he liked these brothers the most was that they never became distant due to the changes in his status.
