Chapter 302: This was a Dangerous Person
Ling Chuxi raised her brows slightly. Why did he say that? It seemed like this was her first meeting with the first prince? What did the first prince mean, saying such words the moment he approached her?
“You really made my gambling house close down.” The first prince said with a smile.
Ling Chuxi frowned and suddenly understood. So it turned out that the owner behind the largest gambling house in the capital was actually the first prince. She and her friends had gone to exchange their gambling tickets after the match. She got the money, but the owner of the gambling house was nowhere to be found. Even if they wanted to find them to settle the scores, they could not find the person. Now hearing the first prince speaking like this, Ling Chuxi finally understood. No wonder the gambling house was so arrogant. It turns out that the boss behind them was actually the first prince. Thinking about it, it was also actually normal. How could a gambling den without a backer survive?
However, Ling Chuxi did not forget the matter of the people from the gambling house sending someone to assassinate her. At this moment, the first prince took the opportunity to speak first. “However, I really never thought that my subordinates had actually sent people to do you harm. I have already punished them. Miss Chuxi, don’t worry, I will definitely give you an explanation. This matter, I indeed did not know about it beforehand. I’ll apologize to you here.” At this moment, the first prince had already changed the way he addressed Ling Chuxi, from Miss Ling Chuxi to Miss Chuxi. This kind of familiar attitude couldn’t get any more obvious.
Ling Chuxi choked and the words by the tip of her tongue could not be spoken. The first prince had taken the opportunity first. How was it possible to say that the first prince was not in the know? Ling Chuxi did not believe this.
“I hope Miss Chuxi does not keep a grudge. I will definitely give Miss Chuxi an explanation.” The first prince had a gentle smile that was like the spring breeze. This light, playful tone had the effect of using little strength but gaining great benefits. He easily pushed aside the responsibility and even said that he would give a good explanation. If Ling Chuxi still insisted on making things difficult, it would appear as if she was petty.
The corner of Ling Chuxi’s lips tugged into a superficial smile. “Since the first prince was not in the know, then just forget about it.” This first prince was definitely not an ordinary person. Ling Chuxi secretly thought in her heart that this was a dangerous person. It would be better to keep a distance from him.
“Thank you Miss Chuxi for being magnanimous.” The first prince smiled ever so gently like the spring breeze.
With the first prince’s attitude being like this, Ling Chuxi naturally understood what he meant. This was merely because he had seen her cultivation and wanted to act familiarly. Having an additional friend was still better than gaining a strong enemy. It was just that Ling Chuxi did not wish to interact with him more.
At this moment, the first prince also sighed in his heart. The matter regarding the gambling house, the person-in-charge would always report to him. Back then when Fu Chengyu brought people to place heavy bets on Ling Chuxi winning, he was not bothered. However, during the later matches, the cultivation Ling Chuxi had displayed made them see her in a different light. If things were allowed to continue as they were, the gambling house indeed would have to pay a large sum of money and even close down. And even the young master of the Gao Clan’s Chamber of Commerce had come to place bets on Ling Chuxi winning, which made him notice Ling Chuxi even more.
In the end when they saw Ling Chuxi’s actual cultivation, they were a little panicked. The people under him wanted to use the handsome man scheme to seduce Ling Chuxi but ended up failing because he got the wrong person. Later on, they went to hire a top notch assassin to assassinate Ling Chuxi. That assassin had the cultivation of Battle Qi Level-9 Pinnacle stage! That was an assassin from the Dark Shadow Pavilion! As the number one assassination organization, one could easily guess the price of the Dark Shadow Pavilion with a single thought. They were the top notch assassins in the business and regardless of cultivation or the maliciousness in their hearts, both were first rate. In the end, it was still a failure!
