Chapter 199: Goal Achieved

Having reaped a bountiful harvest, Shen Yan decided to quit while he was ahead and immediately called over a waiter to settle his chips.

Facing Fan Bingbing's questioning, he leaned lazily against the chair and responded casually, "You're overthinking it. I was losing more than I was winning before; tonight was just good luck, and I managed to win back a bit of my capital."

"Besides, with such a large game, isn't it normal to win twenty million?"

Regarding this guy who was as cunning as a fox, Fan Bingbing was full of suspicion and didn't believe a single punctuation mark of what he said, but with the waiter present, she didn't say much more.

Before long, Shen Yan had a check for twenty-five million and a stack of cash in his hands.

When walking out of the casino, not only did Shen Yan not face any obstruction, but the waiter even respectfully escorted him to the entrance and welcomed him to return next time.

Looking at Fan Bingbing who was following closely behind, Shen Yan felt a headache and asked speechlessly, "Fan Ye, aren't you going back to rest? What are you doing following me?"

Unlike her appearance in the casino just now, at this moment, Fan Bingbing's charming, pretty face was completely covered by a black mask, and with a pair of large black sunglasses hiding her eyes, her whole person exuded a cold and mysterious aura.

A breeze brushed past, and that black V-neck long dress clung tightly to her body, revealing her exquisite and alluring curves.

Fan Bingbing thoroughly enjoyed the fun at the gambling table; it was thrilling and exciting—a typical case of someone who was bad at it but loved to play. Having finally encountered a gambling expert, she was unwilling to let this opportunity slip by.

Thus she said, "Why don't you teach me how to play mahjong? I can pay tuition."

Shen Yan: "..."

He was completely speechless. "Look at me from head to toe—where do I look like an expert? Today really was just good luck."

Fan Bingbing, however, refused to believe it at all. As a woman, her sixth sense told her that beneath Shen Yan's youthful exterior, there lay a hidden side unknown to others.

If she wants to follow, let her follow, Shen Yan sighed inwardly; he had no way to deal with this woman.

Noticing a Dior boutique next to the casino, a thought occurred to Shen Yan, and he turned and walked straight over.

It must be said that beautiful women were truly everywhere in this resort; it was well-deserved to be called a den of debauchery. Just as he entered the door, a saleswoman in black silk stockings greeted him with a smile.

"Welcome, sir!"

Under the bright lights, exquisite fashion items were neatly displayed on the shelves—lipsticks, perfumes, accessories, and more; it was dazzling.

Just then, a guardian angel-shaped necklace caught Shen Yan's eye like the brightest star in the night sky.

The craftsmanship of the necklace was truly ingenious; every detail was handled just right, with a pair of wings slightly spread from behind, as if ready to take flight at any moment.

Beside it was also a Compass Necklace, equally exquisite and peerless, with smooth and natural lines; the needle in the center of the circular dial was clearly visible, as if guiding people in the right direction.

Shen Yan asked the saleswoman to take out the two necklaces to look at; the texture was good, the feel was excellent, and he asked for the price.

One was 12,000, the other 11,000.

They could be discounted to seventy or eighty percent.

Shen Yan waved his hand grandly and told her to wrap them up, then he chose a pair of earrings for Yue'er, as well as lipsticks, cosmetics, and the like; nearly twenty thousand yuan just flowed out of his pocket like that.

Having money is just willful!

Seeing this, Fan Bingbing said meaningfully, "Handsome Shen is truly blessed with good fortune. Can you even count the women you have on one hand?"

"Can't I be buying these for one woman?"

"Pfft!" Fan Bingbing curled her lips and said in a tone that suggested she knew it all: "Facing the colorful world outside, how many men can resist temptation? Don't tell me you're a romantic fool."

"That's just because you haven't met the right one; I happen to be a devoted man."

Shen Yan said this without blushing or panting, while Fan Bingbing wore an expression that said, "I believe you."

Scumbag! Not a word of truth in his mouth.

Perhaps seeing that Shen Yan had no intention of teaching her, after walking out of the boutique, Fan Bingbing did not continue to follow Shen Yan and returned directly to the Venetian Hotel.

Shen Yan was not as extravagant as her; he hadn't booked a presidential suite, just a standard suite for 2,500 a night. The price was a little expensive, but for the current Shen Yan, it wasn't worth mentioning.

The five-star hotel's decor was very nice; the suite had one bedroom and one living room, plus a small balcony. After taking a comfortable hot shower, Shen Yan opened the laptop provided in the room and sent video calls to Wu Yueer and Hao Anqi one after another.

Both women were very curious about the environment in Macau, chattering and asking questions: Is Macau fun? Is the food delicious? They also said pitifully that Shen Yan went to Macau without taking them along.

Shen Yan told them to go apply for passports first, and he would take them out to play when he had time.

Additionally, there were several unread messages on QQ.

Yu Youwei: "Heard you took three days off, did something happen?"

Shen Yan: "Nope, just out having a blast!"

Yu Youwei: "Ahhh! Unfair, I'm tired like a dog every day, busy with the New Year's gala and busy studying, and you actually ran off to have a blast (aggrieved)"

Shen Yan: "Actually... dogs aren't that tired; they get free food and drink every day and don't have any worries."

Yu Youwei: "(Crying) (Crying) (Crying) That hurts!"

Chen Shanni: "Did something happen at home that you suddenly took three days off?"

Shen Yan: "No, just wandering around outside."

Chen Shanni: "Envious!"

The next morning, the sun was bright and the sky was clear. When Shen Yan was checking out at the lobby, he bumped right into Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng didn't mind the fact that he had lost money yesterday at all and greeted him with a smile: "Little brother, morning. Planning to continue sweeping the board today?"

Shen Yan said that gambling usually leads to losing, and it's best to do it in moderation; he planned to spend the rest of his time looking around the area. Xu Zheng nodded in appreciation.

Not bad, not bad!

What goes around comes around; excessive indulgence in gambling will eventually require one to "pay the bill" for their future and life.

A young man who earned so much money at once but wasn't blinded by it—who knows which family raised such a young master.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Shen Yan ran to a large bank nearby and, using some methods, successfully applied for a Macau UnionPay card.

Then he cashed the check issued by the casino into the card, and everything was settled.

Immediately after, Shen Yan began to linger in the major casinos of Macau, specializing in mahjong and Texas Hold'em. With mental calculation combined with his memory, his winning percentage was at least 60%.

During this period, Shen Yan also encountered two card sharps, but unfortunately, in front of his eyes, those little tricks had nowhere to hide.

Better to avoid trouble than to invite it!

Shen Yan didn't expose them on the spot; he just quietly changed to another gambling table.

On the third day at five in the afternoon, when Shen Yan walked out of the bank again, the number in his account had reached 110 million.

The goal has been achieved; time to set off back to Hangzhou.

In the departure lounge, just as Shen Yan was idly reading a novel, his shoulder was suddenly tapped; he looked up to discover it was actually Fan Bingbing.

She was still wearing a black face mask, sunglasses, and a matching hat, with a pink hoodie draped perfectly over her, paired with light blue jeans on her lower body; it was clearly just a very ordinary outfit, yet on her, it gave off a strong sense of fashion and sophistication.

Furthermore, standing next to her was a girl with glasses, who was undoubtedly her assistant.
