225 Banquet
“Alright, it’s barely enough.” Shan Yue deliberately said in a reluctant tone, “One of you can go and get the money now. If you don’t want to collect the corpse of the remaining person after you come back, be obedient. Don’t play any tricks when you go out.” With that, Shan Yue tore a piece of paper on the table and wrote down her secret account.
In the end, the assistant took the account and transferred the money, leaving Victor alone in the room.
Victor’s face was filled with regret. “Miss Shan, if I had known that you and Mr. Zhou were so skilled, I would have cooperated with you in peace. I definitely wouldn’t have raised the price and ended up like this.”
“Sigh, if you had known that this would happen, you wouldn’t have done it in the first place.”
Then, Victor tried his best to please Shan Yue and stabilize her mentality. Finally, his assistant returned.
“Miss Shan, the money has been transferred. Have you received it?” The assistant’s tone was respectful and he did not dare to be rash like before. “If you have, spare my life and our young master’s.”
Shan Yue casually glanced at her phone. Sure enough, there was a new 30 billion in her account. Including the 5 billion from the casino previously, this trip to Las Vegas was quite fruitful.
“I can spare you.” Shan Yue’s eyebrows were filled with a long smile. “But I’ll keep this gun for Mr. Victor for the time being. I don’t think you have any objections.”
“No, no. As long as Miss Shan likes it, feel free to take it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Shan Yue did not stay any longer. She holstered the pistol, braced one hand against the window, and used the momentum to flip out. Victor and his assistant were left looking at each other.
Victor couldn’t help but sigh. “I’ve saved my life, but I can’t compete with Carter in the future.”
Faced with the current situation, the assistant beside him stopped struggling and chose to give up.
At the same time, Zhou Xuan, who was next door, was not idle. After settling the trivial matters outside, he returned to his room and immediately called He Sheng. “Hello, bring someone to teach Victor a lesson immediately. Don’t go overboard and let him remember this lesson.”
Just like that, Victor was first squeezed of 30 billion yuan by Shan Yue. Then, he was taught a lesson by a group of masked people that night. The injuries on his face did not completely fade until Charlie’s birthday banquet.
On the afternoon of the banquet, Carter’s assistant brought Shan Yue and the other two to Master Charlie’s private villa in advance. The magnificent environment could not help but make the young master, Mu Wei, sigh.
“This villa really suits the noble temperament of the Smith family.” Mu Wei’s eyes flickered. “It’s even more luxurious than my house.”
Compared to Mu Wei, Zhou Xuan and Shan Yue were exceptionally calm. Zhou Xuan, who had seen the world, was naturally not surprised by the scene in front of him. As for Shan Yue, she naturally did not care since she could buy several of such villas in her previous life.
After entering the banquet, the few of them successfully met with Master Charlie under Carter’s recommendation.
“I believe you’re Mr. Zhou and his team from the central city of the Federation.” A benevolent smile appeared on Charlie’s lips. “It’s really better to meet than to hear about you. It’s really unforgettable to see you today.”
Zhou Xuan squeezed out a trace of respect amidst his coldness. After all, he was facing an elder. “As the head of an old family in Las Vegas, you have the experience. Compared to you, I still have a lot to learn.”
“Mr. Zhou, you’re too humble.” Charlie stroked the gray beard on his chin and narrowed his eyes. “It’s said that you’re the most outstanding talent in the younger generation of the Federation’s Central City. You’ve even become a benchmark. I’ve long heard of this. It’s also our great honor that our Smith family is lucky to be able to cooperate with someone as capable as Mr. Zhou.”
A faint smile appeared on Zhou Xuan’s lips. “Master Charlie, you flatter me. Everything I do relies on the experience left behind by the older generation. Compared to them, my results are not worth mentioning.”
