Su Xiaoxiao didn’t know how to comfort her. She wanted to close the window, but she accidentally saw a woman.
This person’s face… was a little familiar.
“Who are you looking at?” Bai Xihe staggered over and looked down carefully.
“Eh… Madam Wei?”
Su Xiaoxiao blocked her with her body. “What did you just say?”
Bai Xihe couldn’t hold on anymore and leaned on her shoulder. “Madam Wei..
“What Madam Wei?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Bai Xihe pointed at the figure on the street and said drunkenly, “Don’t you know her? Wei Ting’s mother…”
That person was Wei Ting’s mother? No wonder she felt that she looked familiar. Wei Ting looked very similar to her.
But why did she come out alone in the middle of the night?
Madam Wei got into a carriage.
There was no Wei family emblem on the carriage. It was rented from the car dealership.
“Daughter!”
It was Su Cheng.
“Eh? Madam Bai is here too? Wow, she drank? How much did she drink? Why is she so drunk?”
Su Xiaoxiao helped Bai Xihe back to the chair. “Dad, help me look after Madam
Bai first. I’m going out for a while!”
“Hey, Daughter! Daughter!”
Su Cheng did a cheap trick to quickly stop homer to no avail.
He looked at Bai Xihe, who was drunk on the chair, and did not know what to do.
Forget it. His daughter asked him to help watch over her. He would just watch for a while.
Although Su Cheng was a bully, he never flirted outside. It could be said that he was an extremely good man.
He found a chair and sat worlds apart from Bai Xihe. He selfishly felt that this seat was very clean.
Fifteen minutes later, the waiter went upstairs.
“Master, our restaurant is closing. Why don’t you and Madam come back another day?”
Su Cheng said steadily, “She’s not my Madam!” Bai Xi said drunkenly, “Husband… check…”
“Oh.” Su Cheng took out money.
His body trembled!
It was dark and the restaurant was closed.
Bai Xihe had nowhere to go.
Su Cheng couldn’t really abandon her by the roadside, so he could only brace himself and bring her downstairs.
Bai Xihe was so drunk that she couldn’t walk or wanted to leave.
“I can bring you back, but you’re not allowed to call me that again! You’re not allowed to call me husband!”
“Yes!”
Bai Xihe nodded obediently.
Su Cheng carried Bai Xihe back to Pear Blossom Lane.
It was Qin Canglan who opened the door.
Seeing that his son had actually carried a woman back, he could not help but be shocked. “My daughter-in-law?”
Su Cheng hurriedly denied it. “No!”
Bai Xihe raised her flushed face and nodded heavily on Su Cheng’s back.
“Father…”
Su Cheng was speechless!
On the other side, Su Xiaoxiao chased after Madam Wei’s carriage and turned onto the street at the east end.
A person’s legs were not faster than a carriage. She relied on her familiarity with the terrain to shuttle through the small path.
“I had wanted to learn qinggong. I have to hurry.”
Su Xiaoxiao ran until her legs almost broke and finally caught up before the carriage disappeared completely.
The carriage stopped.
Su Xiaoxiao leaned against the wall and panted.
This kind of high-intensity exercise was still very testing of the body.
Madam Wei alighted from the carriage.
At this moment, she had an additional cloak on her. The hood of the cloak was tightly covered, and she looked like she didn’t want to be recognized.
Su Xiaoxiao frowned strangely.
She chased after Madam Wei and saw that she had actually entered a gambling den.
“That’s strange. What is she doing in the casino in the middle of the night?”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the casino and then at the carriage that was silently parked in the alley. Without any hesitation, she walked towards the casino.
She did not know that she would enter the gambling den in advance and did not have the time to change her clothes. Although there were women who came to gamble, her unrestrained outfit was still too eye-catching.
Everyone looked at her strangely.
Su Xiaoxiao walked in calmly.
A burly man walked over and stopped her. He said fiercely, “Girl, this is a gambling den, not a place you should come.”
Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “I’m looking for someone.”
The burly man crossed his arms and refused to give way.
He had seen many such things. It was most likely that men had come here to gamble and the women at home had come looking for their husbands.
Their gambling den was open for business. They could not let their customers’ interest be disturbed.
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and changed her words. “I’m here to gamble.”
The burly man snorted and looked at her in disbelief.
Su Xiaoxiao turned around and came to a gambling table.
After the dealer finished shaking the dice, he slapped it on the table. “Beg big or small! Leave after you’ve placed your bet!”
There was a man sitting here whose eyes were red.
He was hesitant about which to buy. Su Xiaoxiao tapped his shoulder. “I’ll help you buy it? If you win, you’ll give me half.”
The man was stunned and frowned at her. “Who are you?”
The gambler at the side said, “Where did this girl come from? Don’t get in the way! Hurry up and leave!”
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and looked at the man. “I’ll bet on big. I guarantee you’ll win.’
The man said, “I’ve already bet on big three times in a row. How can this round be big?”
“Big,” Su Xiaoxiao said firmly.
The man was very conflicted, but perhaps because he had lost almost all his assets, he had to make a Hail Mary effort and mustered his courage to believe Su Xiaoxiao this time.
“Big!”
He bet the last ten taels of silver.
The others shook their heads in disdain. Most of them bought small.
The dealer gripped the lid. “It’s open, it’s open— The man said, “Big! Big! Big!”
Everyone said, “Small! Small! Small!”
The dealer opened the bet. “Three sixes, big!”
The man was overjoyed. “I won! I won!”
He grabbed Su Xiaoxiao’s shoulder. “Little brother! No… girl… I won!”
“Continue,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
“Hey!” The man sat back in his chair excitedly. “Are you buying it big this time?”
“Big,” Su Xiaoxiao said calmly.
Su Xiaoxiao won all five rounds.
In the end, all the gamblers gambled with her. In this way, the dealer would lose.
The dealer broke out in cold sweat.
In the gambling den, the dealer took up seven to eight percent of the bet.
However, tonight, they met their match.
The casino manager walked over and asked softly, “What’s going on?”
The dealer whispered, “There’s an expert.”
“Did he cheat?” the steward asked.
The dealer shook his head. “I didn’t notice.”
The steward looked at Su Xiaoxiao meaningfully.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him calmly and then at the burly man who had stopped her just now. She smiled and said, “Can I go in and look for someone now?”
The corners of the burly man’s mouth twitched.
The steward said with a fake smile, “Miss, please go ahead.”
Su Xiaoxiao picked up a bag of silver on the table and left coolly.
She entered the backyard of the gambling den.
She remembered that Madam Wei had come here just now, but she didn’t know which room Madam Wei had entered.
This was a large-scale gambling den. There were some ordinary betting tables in the lobby, and there were separate bets in the rooms. They were usually used to receive distinguished guests.
“Madam, why don’t we talk next door?”
An unfamiliar man’s voice came from the room.
Su Xiaoxiao took a step back and entered another room behind her.
She had just hidden behind the curtain when the door creaked open.
Madam Wei and a man in luxurious clothes walked in.
Madam Wei came to the window and was about to pull open the curtain when she failed..
