In the early morning, Lin Hai rubbed his shoulder, grimacing as he left the Inner Palace.
Last night, it seed his half-father-in-law really couldn't stand the phrase "I married both of your daughters."
So, during dinner, he had a good few drinks with Lin Hai, demanding not to use Gang Qi to dissolve it, purely relying on drinking capacity.
Knowing the half-father-in-law was deliberately trying to make things difficult, Lin Hai decided to play along.
According to Lin Hai's plan, he thought he should pretend to be unable to take it anymore on the tenth drink and act obediently in front of his half-father-in-law.
In the end, at the eighth cup, not even the almighty Yanhuang Soul, whom countless Huaxia officials, social elites, and commoners feared, couldn't withstand and nearly fell under the table.
Fortunately, at the crucial mont, Xia Xiaopao used his own power to dissolve the alcohol effect with Gang Qi, looking up at Lin Hai's bewildered expression.
Thus... Lin Hai faced a tragedy again.
Now his left shoulder hurts, a symptom left from Xia Xiaopao unwillingly challenging Lin Hai late at night.
"Sh*t, what Heaven and Earth Splitting Palm, claiming it's my grandfather's true legacy, almost dislocated my shoulder, soone just a step away from the Half-step Immortal title, still dares to call themselves Legendary late-stage."
Lin Hai rubbed his shoulder again, hissing and drawing a cold breath.
Checking the ti, Lin Hai thought about taking out his phone and called Lei Jing.
"Yikes!"
As soon as the call connected, Lei Jing's surprised shout ca through, apparently very loud.
"What happened?" Lin Hai asked hurriedly.
"Oh my, it's unbelievable." Lei Jing exclaid again upon hearing Lin Hai's voice.
"What happened? What's going on?" Lin Hai felt puzzled by Lei Jing's two exclamations.
"You actually called early in the morning?" Lei Jing exclaid again.
"Is there a problem with calling early in the morning?" Lin Hai felt they were completely on different wavelengths.
"No, ahem, Young Master Lin, do you finally have an interest in ?" Lei Jing's voice suddenly beca charming and slightly seductive.
"Damn..."
Lin Hai stared wide-eyed at his phone, thinking he just planned to et the Eighth Prince, following Xia Xiaopao's information that he rose through gambling, seemingly using casino rules for conduct.
So he called the Spades Queen Lei Jing, who grew up almost in casinos, to prepare to go together.
"Young Master Lin, if you are interested in , as long as you help solve the Donglong Family's matter, I'll definitely agree to be with you." Lei Jing revealed her true intention.
Lin Hai sighed deeply, explaining: "Miss Lei, firstly, I'm married, secondly, you're really not suited for , and finally, after you help with this matter, I'll definitely find ti to help solve the Donglong Family's issues."
"Really?" Lei Jing asked in surprise, she was prepared to have a long ga with Lin Hai, not expecting him to agree so readily.
"Truly, but first you must help with one thing, and I can't just go to the East Sea with you imdiately." Lin Hai said.
"How can I help?" Lei Jing's beautiful eyes flashed with curiosity, pondering inwardly.
"Could it be Young Master Lin wants to help with so biological need?" Lei Jing paused, supplentally asking.
"Damn, if that were the case, you wouldn't need to call Young Master Lin, calling Young Master X would be more fitting."
Lin Hai chipped in sarcastically, a vein appearing on his forehead.
"Haha, I also think calling you Young Master X would be more suitable, after all, you're always so sleazy." Lei Jing joked.
"Alright, let's be serious, accompany to an underground casino in Yanjing to et soone." Lin Hai said directly.
"Who is it?" Lei Jing asked curiously.
"The leader of one of Yanjing's four underground grey forces, nicknad the Eighth Prince."
"What? Why are you eting the Eighth Prince?" Lei Jing asked in disbelief.
Lin Hai felt puzzled, from Lei Jing's tone, she seed to know of the Eighth Prince.
"Do you know the Eighth Prince?"
"Not personally, but I've heard of him, the guy made his fortune through gambling and has a gambling addiction." Lei Jing replied.
After all, the Spades Queen was in the gambling world, so she was familiar with most renowned gamblers.
"Oh? Then that's perfect, I need to solve so grudges with him, and I'll need the magnificent Spades Queen to lend a hand."
Lei Jing hesitated: "I'm a bit worried about handling the Eighth Prince."
"Why? After all, you're known as the 'Spades Queen,' such an imposing title, are you afraid of a local gambling head from Yanjing?" Lin Hai wondered.
Lei Jing shook her head: "Not as simple as you think, the Eighth Prince is manageable, his gambling skills are not fit to even lace my shoes."
"But, today's Yanjing isn't the Yanjing of over ten years ago; with Huaxia's continuous economic developnt, various international gamblers are flooding Huaxia."
Hearing Lei Jing's explanation, Lin Hai probed: "Are you worried about so international experts under the Eighth Prince?"
"Yes, that's exactly what I'm worried about; last year my brother told the Eighth Prince is very ambitious, not satisfied with being a local leader in Yanjing, reportedly he successfully hired a Gambling King from Southeast Asia."
"A Gambling King?"
Lin Hai thought, being called a Gambling King ant that person must be a gambling master.
"I can handle a Gambling King, but in the casino itself, combined with Eighth Prince's developnt over the years, I'm worried about more of his skilled subordinates; what if I miss the mark?" Lei Jing expressed her concern.
Lin Hai considered, he himself was skilled in gambling, moreover, his Legendary level strength and control shouldn't be less than a Gambling King level, possibly even stronger.
Thinking it over, Lin Hai said: "No matter what, the grudge with the Eighth Prince must be resolved; you should still co along."
"Alright, since you agreed to help the Donglong Family, for my brother and the Donglong Family, I must help you, give the place, I'll head over right away." Lei Jing replied decisively.
Lin Hai imdiately shared his location with her.
Disconnecting the call, Lin Hai rubbed his chin, deep in thought, recalling so gambling techniques he had mastered.
Ten minutes later, a taxi stopped by the roadside.
Lei Jing's graceful figure stepped off the car.
From her attire, it was clear Lei Jing deliberately wore a cheongsam and gloves today, raising her spirits in preparation for a big match against the Eighth Prince's gambling experts.
However, the next person stepping out of the taxi left Lin Hai dumbfounded.
"Whoa? The CEO?"
"Whoa? Ruoshuang?"
"Further whoa, Zhuge Jianguo? Why did you all co?"
Lin Hai stared wide-eyed, asking.
