“I…” That gambler did not know what to say. He really could not tell how Qiao Mei cheated. She had not even made any extra movements the entire time.

“If you didn’t see anything, what right do you have to slander me? Aren’t there any rules in this place? Don’t you care that there are such troublemakers here? How am I supposed to continue playing?” Qiao Mei said as she pointed at the gambler unhappily.

The people in charge could see everything that was happening. A masked man nudged his attendant next to him and said, “Invite this young lady up for a chat and deal with that person who broke the rules. Make sure I don’t see him again in the future.”

“Noted.” The attendant called four bodyguards to go with him. They rapidly surrounded the gambler from before and stuffed his mouth before dragging him outside to deal with him.

The attendant came next to Qiao Mei and said respectfully, “Hello, Miss. I’m sorry about what happened just now. To express our apologies, our boss wants to invite you upstairs. I wonder if you’re willing to do us the honor?”

“Sure.” Qiao Mei smiled in satisfaction. After so long, the big fish had finally taken the bait.

“This way, please,” the attendant said.

“Wait, get someone to pack up my chips so that I can bring them along. This is all my money. What if it gets lost later?” Qiao Mei said as she pointed at the pile of chips.

The attendant called two people to come over and pack up Qiao Mei’s chips and carried everything upstairs for her. Qiao Mei finally met the owner of the underground gambling den. He looked different from what she had imagined.

She had imagined the owner to be dressed in a suit and leather shoes, smoking a cigar and drinking red wine with a group of underlings following behind him. However, the person in front of her was dressed casually and wearing a mask. He did not look like an aggressive person and seemed very easy- going instead. He even personally poured tea for her!

“Hello, I’m the owner of this place. You can call me Brother Lei,” Brother Lei said, smiling behind the mask.

“I’ve long heard of Brother Lei’s name. Now that I’ve met you today, I think you really live up to your reputation. Brother Lei is indeed handsome and suave,” Qiao Mei said flatteringly.

“You flatter me. I’m not as dazzling as you. You won more than 20,000 dollars

from my place in just an hour. Miss, you’re really quite amazing. I actually can’t spot how you do it. I wonder if you can help me clear my doubts? Let this group of useless people under me learn from you. Don’t worry, I just want to learn your skills. I won’t kill you,” Brother Lei said sincerely.

“Skills? Brother Lei, you must be joking. I certainly won all the money fair and square. I don’t have any skills and I’m just a very lucky person. What else can it be?” Qiao Mei said with a laugh.

Her words made Brother Lei laugh loudly. This woman was indeed not a simple person if she could remain so calm in front of him.

“Miss, you’re right. Looks like I’m still too inexperienced and not worldly enough. We all know what it’s all about, so let’s drop all this useless talk. What exactly are you here for today?” Brother Lei asked.

“Brother Lei is indeed as sharp as they say. I do have a favor to ask of you,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Miss, your way of asking for help is really special. If you sit around for a while longer, you can even bankrupt this place. How can I continue with my business then?” Brother Lei questioned.

“Brother Lei, please accept my apologies. If I don’t use this method, I won’t be able to meet you. I can return all these chips to you. What I want is very simple. I wonder if you have an emerald necklace in your possession? That is my family heirloom and it’s very precious to me,” Qiao Mei asked tentatively.

Brother Lei stared at Qiao Mei with a cold look in his eyes. Recently, there had been an uproar in the capital as everyone was looking for this necklace. Even the police had started to comb through all the black markets aggressively. The fact that this person in front of him could find out about his den meant that this woman had some connections.

He looked Qiao Mei up and down, and then thought back to all the prominent families in the capital. He chuckled and said, “Miss Qiao, you’re quite capable since you can find me, but what if I say that I don’t have this necklace?”

“Since Brother Lei already knows who I am, then how can you not know that I have the ability to find out if you have the thing I want? Otherwise, I’ll just be kicking up a fuss here in vain,” Qiao Mei said..
