My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 240 - 239: Little Tricks (1)
Inside the villa's grand hall.
A man and five women sat on the sofa, eating fruit and chatting away. The man was tall and handsome, while the women were all charming and alluring.
Of course, the man was Gao Fei. He leaned on the sofa with a somewhat languid demeanor, "Ran a whole trip for nothing, worked hard for nothing, wasted several days for nothing, truly depressing."
Su Xiaorou handed Gao Fei an apple she had peeled, "What's the origin of that swarm of insects, and how could they be so formidable?"
"Not sure," Gao Fei took a bite of the apple, "but I guess they must be relic insects left from ancient times."
"Left from ancient times? Does that mean those insects have lived for a very long time?"
"Yeah, that's what I'm thinking."
"What's the plan now?"
"Just wait. Someone else is more anxious than I am. After they figure out how to deal with the black insects, I'll make another trip over there."
"Be careful with everything, you can't be reckless."
"Don't worry, I cherish my life. The moment something seems off, I'll turn tail and run without hesitation."
...
With power in hand when awake, and lying in the lap of a beauty when drunk!
This is the life every man dreams of! Gao Fei is no exception!
"I've been thinking about a problem," Gao Fei said with a smile, "my dad and mom have always wanted a grandchild, and I really want to fulfill this wish for them, just don't know if you all are willing?"
"I suddenly remembered, I have some clothes that I haven't washed yet, I'm going upstairs to do laundry," Su Xiaorou stood up and went upstairs.
"My phone's out of battery."
"I have a toothache, I need to find some medicine."
"I have a stomachache, also need to find some medicine."
"I…I'm hungry, I'm going to get something to eat."
...
In the blink of an eye, all five women had left, leaving Gao Fei all alone on the sofa.
"This really makes me angry." Gao Fei pouted, "Whenever I bring up something serious, everyone runs away, shows no class at all."
"Buzz buzz buzz..."
The phone on the coffee table suddenly began to ring. It was Xia Tao calling.
"Hello?" Gao Fei picked up the phone, "Xia Tao, what's up?"
"Mr. Gao, I've encountered some trouble and need your help," Xia Tao's low, hoarse voice came through the phone.
"It's been several days already."
"If it's been this long, the contents of those documents have probably already leaked," said Gao Fei.
"No, they haven't," Xia Tao shook his head, "The documents are stored on a hard drive with encryption, and the password is very complex. It's impossible to break in a short time, but given more time, it's hard to say. So we must retrieve the files before they crack the password."
Gao Fei nodded, "I see! Tell me, which country?"
"M-country, now hidden in a large casino, I understand he's one of the casino bosses."
"Give me a few days, I'll go catch the traitor."
"Mr. Gao, much obliged."
"Wait for my call." Gao Fei put down his phone, skewed his mouth, "It's so hard to live quietly for a few days."
Late in the afternoon, Gao Fei took a flight to M-country.
...
Hours later, the plane carrying Gao Fei slowly landed at the airport. The cabin doors opened, and Gao Fei stepped down from the plane with a steady stride, then headed towards the exit.
No sooner had Gao Fei exited the airport than a swarm of taxi drivers surrounded him. In the end, Gao Fei found a female driver, blond and blue-eyed with a fiery figure, quite a feast for the eyes.
The female driver was very talkative, and key to that, she actually spoke Chinese. Granted, it was a bit halting, but overall, one could make out what she intended to say.
"Sir, where would you like to go?" asked the female driver.
"Where is the biggest casino around here?" Gao Fei asked with a smile.
"Oh, there are many casinos here. If we're talking the biggest... it's still Saint Des Casino..." the female driver said, "Saint Des Casino spans over a thousand acres and is built like a palace. Every day, many people go there to gamble. Why, sir, do you want to gamble too?"
"Yes, to gamble," Gao Fei nodded, "Let's head to Saint Des!"
"Oh, sir, just a friendly word of advice. Gambling is not a good habit, and it's best not to go," the female driver kindly warned, "I've seen with my own eyes many people gamble away their fortunes and end up destitute on the streets, it's quite tragic."
"I have very good luck," Gao Fei said with a smile, "I've never lost at gambling."
"Fine, if you're set on going, I can't stop you, can only wish you good luck." The female driver shrugged helplessly.
Gao Fei leaned back in the car seat, admiring the view outside through the window glass. The scenery abroad was distinct from that at home, each with its strengths, neither superior nor inferior. However, Gao Fei still preferred the architectural style of his homeland.
More than half an hour later.
The taxi slowly came to a stop.
"We've arrived," the female driver said.
"Here, this is for you, keep the change," Gao Fei handed the driver a handful of banknotes, then pushed open the car door and got out, looking up to see a tall building with more than thirty stories, painted walls, and three large revolving doors at the entrance, where a group of burly security guards stood, each one imposing.
A neon sign was hanging above the revolving doors, reading "Saint Des Big Casino" in large characters.
"Good luck! Goodbye!" said the driver, driving the taxi away.
Gao Fei straightened out his clothes, then took a step forward.
"Please stop a moment, sir!" A security guard stopped Gao Fei. "Before entering, a security check is required. No lethal weapons are permitted, please understand, sir."
"There certainly are a lot of rules," Gao Fei nodded. "Go ahead." He wasn't carrying any weapons, so he wasn't worried about the search.
The security guard took out a device and scanned Gao Fei a few times, but found nothing unusual: "Alright, sir, you may go inside now."
Gao Fei nodded and stepped into the casino.
"Good evening, sir. Are you here for accommodation, or to gamble?" A foreign lady with a seductive appearance quickly approached him.
"Accommodation? Isn't this a casino? Can you stay here too?" Gao Fei asked in surprise.
"In addition to gambling, we also provide accommodation," explained the foreign lady.
"I see," Gao Fei nodded. "I'm here to gamble."
"Please follow me, sir, you need to exchange for chips before gambling."
"Alright, lead the way," Gao Fei assented.
The foreign lady led Gao Fei into an elevator and pressed a button; the elevator immediately began its descent. Seeing the question in Gao Fei's eyes, the foreign lady explained, "The gambling hall is located in the underground level."
Gao Fei nodded, saying nothing.
"Ding!"
The elevator doors opened.
A burst of jarring noise poured in.
Gao Fei stepped out of the elevator and looked around to find a vast hall filled with all sorts of gambling equipment, including dice, mahjong, and card games, catering to a variety of tastes. There were dice players, mahjong enthusiasts, and card players, a complete assortment, with every kind of game available.
There were many people gambling, probably close to a few thousand.
A group of black-clad men were patrolling the hall, equipped with earpieces and carrying batons, clearly security.
"The place to exchange for chips is over there," the foreign lady took Gao Fei to a counter. "You can exchange for your chips here."
"Sir, how much would you like to exchange for chips?" Behind the counter stood a man in his thirties, bespectacled, speaking English with a cultured accent, which Gao Fei could just about understand.
"Let's start with one billion," Gao Fei placed a globally accepted bank card on the counter.
"One billion?" The foreign lady was shocked.
"Alright, I'll exchange it immediately," the glasses-wearing man hurriedly nodded. This was a big customer, after all, who had to be well taken care of. In less than five minutes, the chips were exchanged, a whole large plate of them: "Sir, it's ready."
Gao Fei carelessly grabbed a handful of chips and passed them to the foreign lady: "This is for your tip, thank you for showing me the way." After saying this, Gao Fei carried the plate and left.
The foreign lady looked at the chips in her hand, eyes glittering: "So generous! You don't see such generous customers often!"
"You've hit the jackpot today," the man with glasses said sourly. "Those chips could cover your annual salary."
"After work, I'm going to enjoy myself thoroughly," the foreign lady left happily.
…
Clutching his chips, Gao Fei surveyed the surroundings: "What should I play? Hmm, let's go with dice, it's simple and the payout is quick." Gao Fei strode over, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
"Rattle rattle..."
The dealer shook the dice cup vigorously several times before placing it on the table: "Place your bets, everyone."
With "Clairvoyance" activated, Gao Fei looked and said, "I bet on big." While speaking, he pushed all his chips forward; those were billions worth of chips, which astonished both the dealer and the other gamblers.
"What are you daydreaming for?" Gao Fei tapped the table. "Open it up."
The dealer swallowed hard and cautiously lifted the dice cup, looking down to find himself stunned, "Five, five, six... sixteen points, big…"
"Pay up, do it quickly," Gao Fei laughed, "I'm really lucky today, earning a big sum right from the start, haha... Hey, what are you spacing out for, pay up! Quick!"
The dealer snapped back to attention and pushed a mountain of chips in front of Gao Fei. Since the odds were one to one, the dealer had to pay Gao Fei a billion.
"Rattle rattle..."
After regaining his composure, the dealer shook the dice cup once more, this time for an even longer duration before putting it down on the table: "Alright, you may place your bets now."
