Dressed in a white T-shirt and cropped skinny jeans, with a pair of white sports shoes to match, and an orangish-red cardigan draped over her, Gu Qianlin looked nothing like the fearsome, angry police inspector in her stiff uniform. Instead, she was trendy and had the fresh, raw beauty of a feminine young woman.
“Xiao Luo, what the heck are you trying to do?” Gu Qianlin asked assertively as she headed towards Xiao Luo in quick, urgent strides
Giving her nonchalant shrug, Xiao Luo said, “I’m worried that I might get beaten up after winning too much money, so I asked you to come over and protect me.”
“Ask me to protect you?” she repeated his words.
What a joke! Gu Qianlin couldn’t help a sneer, “Pah! You still need someone to protect you?”
Xiao Luo replied, looking very serious, like he meant it, “Yes, I do.”
Having said so, he turned and walked into the Yellow Skies Casino.
Gu Qianlin stood contemplating, she had a bad feeling about this, as if being led into another of Xiao Luo’s schemes. She glared at the two plainclothes cops in the black car, cringing as her eyes sending them angry messages, then turned and headed towards the Yellow Skies Casino. What on earth is Xiao Luo up to?
…
Xiao Luo exchanged cash for five million dollars worth of chips and headed for the dice games area directly.
“You ask me to come and watch you gamble?” Gu Qianlin snorted.
“Is there a problem?” he replied.
Xiao Luo eyes her with a raised brow. “I didn’t say that I was going to stir up trouble. If you feel bored, you can go, but I might start stirring up trouble immediately after you leave? Don’t regret it if you miss getting the evidence.”
Gu Qianlin hissed through gritted teeth, “Enough of your tricks. Sooner or later, I will personally arrest and handcuff you.”
“Officer Gu, why are you always prejudiced against me?” Xiao Luo asked.
“I don’t think I need to answer your question. If you really are a law-abiding citizen, I think we can be friends. But it’s hard to ignore your murderous qualities, and they have given you away. I was in the special forces and had personally subdued many despicable criminals, so I am confident of my intuition and judgment. So, I am sure that I am not misjudging you. You have definitely killed before.” Gu Qianlin looked at Xiao Luo with scathing eyes.
Xiao Luo gave her a cynical smile. “I have indeed killed someone before, have you forgotten that I was the one who accidentally killed the mercenary you all were after? However, that does not constitute a crime, but on the contrary, I’d thought that the police should’ve awarded me a banner and prize money.”
“Don’t be so pleased with yourself. You will be monitored constantly until you give yourself away someday.” Gu Qianlin snickered coldly.
“Fine, I’ll be waiting then.”.
Xiao Luo replied, nodding with a slight smile.
Before they knew it, the two were already standing in front of a gambling table. As always in casinos, the house was the dealer. Before casting the dice, the dealer would look at the gamblers around the table and wait for them to place their bets.
Without a second thought, Xiao Luo bet all five million dollars’ worth of his chips on “Big.”
Usual bets are worth a thousand or two, or at most fifty thousand. The fact that someone had suddenly put down such a large sum shocked not just the dealer and the gamblers gathered around them, but also Gu Qianlin. She had personally witnessed Xiao Luo pay for the chips with his card. What he threw down was not just the plastic chips they seemed to be, but actually five million dollars.
