Chapter 34: Las Vegas
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
No matter if it was the Liu family or the Pei family, it was not an easy task. If she were to rashly return to the country as Shen Xiaoxiao, it would be easier for them to kill her than to kill an ant.
When she was still weak, there was nothing wrong with a temporary hibernation.
Shen Xiaoxiao brought a large amount of cash into the bank. Even though it was almost time to get off work, those people did not dare to delay and immediately help with the storage procedures.
Shen Xiaoxiao sent her Third Uncle into the hotel early to rest. Her Third Uncle had already suffered some injuries. Driving for more than eight hours had already exhausted him, so it was naturally better for him to rest early.
Moreover, Shen Xiaoxiao did not want her Third Uncle to see that she had so much cash in her hands, because it would be troublesome to explain when the time came.
With such a large amount of cash in the bank, the bank directly handled the VIP business. Just counting the money and cleaning it took nearly two hours to complete.
In this society where milk was the mother, Shen Xiaoxiao, such a big-spending customer, naturally received the highest treatment.
A total of 500 million US dollars. This number made all the staff members speechless. However, Shen Xiaoxiao wore a mask from beginning to end. No one saw her appearance, except for the bank executives.
After handling all the business, she walked out with a relaxed body.
At this time, it was already early in the evening. The lights were red, the wine was green, and the neon lights were flashing. In such a foreign country, such a night always had a rare hint of ambiguity.
She pulled down the brim of her hat, and her yellow cloak and coat wrapped her tightly. Paired with a red scarf and hat, she wore a pair of boots. No matter how one looked at her, she looked like a university student. She was fresh and lovely.
Her big round eyes looked around the city.
She walked casually on the street. The cold wind blew, and there were people passing by. If this place was not so dark and dirty, it might really be as dazzling and fascinating as it was right now.
She walked to the door of a bar and did not stop. When she passed by the trash can, she quietly took away an abandoned bottle next to her. There was an envelope lying inside.
She opened it as she walked. After reading the contents, she took out a lighter and burned it into ashes.
It was as if nothing had happened. No one knew what she had done or experienced.
She adjusted her collar and turned around to return to the hotel. In Country M, as long as one could afford the price, there was really no information that could not be obtained.
“What did you say? You’re going to Las Vegas?”
Shen Jinwen did not know why Xiaoxiao would suddenly make this decision. It had only been one night, and she was already like this. Could it be that she had found out something?
“Qian Weitang is in Las Vegas, not Doral.
“Third Uncle, you’re going to return to the country ahead of time. I promise to come back in a month at most.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Shen Jinwen’s surprised look. She knew that Shen Jinwen would definitely not let her go alone. Sure enough, Third Uncle said directly:
“Then I can go with you. There’s no need for you to do this. Furthermore, your words are not smooth. You want to go to Las Vegas? That place has gathered all the gang leaders and all sorts of people from all over the world. The target is too big. No, you can’t go alone.”
Shen Jinwen was very insistent, but he had forgotten that Shen Xiaoxiao’s skills were definitely not ordinary.
“Third Uncle, you have to return to the country early. I need you to help me with something. The Pei family has the support of the Ouyang family. We have to be fully prepared.”
“Third Uncle, don’t forget that I have an engagement with the Pei family.”
“No matter how unwilling I, Shen Xiaoxiao, am, it’s not up to an illegitimate daughter to snatch it from me. This engagement can only be annulled by me. The Pei family can forget about it.”
In Shen Jinwen’s eyes, Shen Xiaoxiao, who was only 17 years old, was still a child. He actually did not want Shen Xiaoxiao to participate in these fights too much.
However, he also knew very well that if Shen Xiaoxiao did not do these things, with his old bones and brain that was not as sharp anymore, he would not have been able to defeat those two b*stards ten years ago, let alone ten years later when they had already established their footing.
However, the Pei family, Gu Yuehua, and Liu Qianmin were in cahoots. They all wanted to take a bite out of this piece of fat meat of the Shen family. Did they really think that all the members of the Shen family were dead?
This time, they would definitely not let the Pei family get away with it.
“But can you do it alone?”
Although he had thought it through, Shen Jinwen still had the concern of an elder for the younger generation.
After all, Xiaoxiao was not an adult yet. Although Lin Weiwei was already 18 years old in her new identity… But the real Shen Xiaoxiao was only a little over 17 years old.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at her Third Uncle who really cared about her. She smiled and said as if she was joking, “Third Uncle, have you forgotten how those two black men died?”
Shen Jinwen was stunned. He had really forgotten about this. Now that he thought about it, he did not know why, but he felt more and more worried.
Xiaoxiao was so good at fighting at such a young age even though she had brushed aside her life in the club.
However, he, Shen Jinwen, had lived for decades and stayed in Country M for more than ten years. He knew a thing or two about the underground organizations here. It was definitely not as simple as she said.
However, she clearly did not want him to worry. This really made things difficult for him.
However, the child had grown up and had his own ideas. Moreover, Xiaoxiao was so determined to avenge the Shen family. He should be happy and should support her. However, those worries could not be hidden, and that heartache could not be hidden.
She was supposed to live a carefree life as the daughter of a wealthy family. However, she had to experience such an unequal life.
She had been sold at the age of six. It had been eleven years and she still remembered him and the Shen family. How much perseverance and determination did she have to endure?
Even he, Shen Jinwen, would not be able to do what Xiaoxiao had done.
For a moment, he had mixed feelings and did not know how to dissuade her. He could only sigh and listen to her.
“You… Hey, be careful. This is the phone number of an old friend of mine. If you have any trouble, you can look for him.”
Shen Jinwen knew that there was nothing he could do. He could only plan for her and pass a phone number to Shen Xiaoxiao.
“Also, a person should be more careful and try to keep a low profile. I know that you have money and don’t need Third Uncle to give it to you, but this card is the fund that your father saved for you. Gu Yuehua doesn’t know either.
“Your father said that he would only let me take it out when you are useful. Now, I will give it to you in advance. You are a sensible child and know how to make good use of them.”
A black card was pushed into Shen Xiaoxiao’s hand. Looking at the card, Shen Xiaoxiao had mixed feelings.
Back then, after Shen Xiaoxiao returned to the country, she moved into the “Liu family”. She was not used to everything, and Gu Yuehua did not give her a single cent because she had just returned to the country and did not know anything.
It was completely cold and violent. At that time, Shen Xiaoxiao thought that her mother did not know how to express her love because they had not been together for many years, so she did not think too much about it.
However, at that time, she already knew that she had a marriage contract with the Pei family. She also fell in love with Pei Li in a daze. In order to dress up and please Pei Li, there were many places where she had to spend money.
At that time, it was Third Uncle who gave her this card. There was a lot of money in it, but she foolishly told her good mother about it.
Within a week, Gu Yuehua used the company’s lack of turnover as an excuse to cheat her out of the considerable amount of money in her hands.
Until now, she still remembered that she often saw her younger sister, Liu Yufei, and Gu Yuehua wearing different new jewelry.
At that time, she thought that she could win the favor of her sister and mother by doing so. However, after her money was squeezed dry, she was still alone, an orphan of the Shen family.
Now that she had gotten this card again, and it was Third Uncle who gave it to her on his own initiative. She really had mixed feelings in her heart.
However, she swore that she would never touch a single cent of this in her life. What she, Shen Xiaoxiao, wanted would be earned back with her own hands. Not only would it be her Shen family’s, but also the Pei family’s, the Liu family’s, and even the legendary Ouyang family, whose wealth could rival that of a country and whose power was monstrous… All those who owed her Shen family and helped her enemies were her enemies.
One by one, she would slowly take care of them and slowly get back what she deserved.
