Chapter 162

Yin Luoxia was stunned, then her face showed worry as she said, "Isn't that a bit too exaggerated? If we offend Tianqi City because of this..."

Her concern was not without reason.

After all, Tianqi City was the Imperial City.

If the gambling house in Snow Moon City were even bigger than the one in Tianqi City,

it would inevitably attract a large number of people from the Jianghu, and even those high-ranking officials and nobles, to Snow Moon City.

By that time,

it would very likely cause dissatisfaction within the Imperial Court.

"It's fine, just do as I say."

Jiang Chen smiled confidently: "With me here, it's not Tianqi City's turn to manage Snow Moon City."

Listening to Jiang Chen's voice, which carried a hint of disdain,

Ye Ruoyi and the others immediately fixed their beautiful eyes on Jiang Chen, feeling their heartbeats accelerate.

In the past, Jiang Chen always wore a smile, gentle as jade, with the appearance of a graceful young master.

This was the first time they had seen Jiang Chen display such a strong and assertive posture.

Therefore,

even Yin Luoxia,

at this moment, felt her gaze toward Jiang Chen flickering.

Actually,

for so many years,

Yin Luoxia had always had her own thoughts.

She had always wanted to find someone who could accompany her in living the life of an ordinary person.

Living in a city,

opening a shop with the one she loved, and living the life of a recluse.

It was just that for so many years, she had never met a suitable person.

It was precisely because of this

that Yin Luoxia, even knowing that she had lost three consecutive games of gambling to Brother Sikong Changfeng because he was cheating, was still willing to stay in Snow Moon City as an elder.

Because,

although Snow Moon City was a Jianghu city,

it had always refrained from getting involved in those Jianghu disputes.

Especially the inner city of Snow Moon City, which gave Yin Luoxia a feeling of "the greatest recluse hiding in the city."

Since she couldn't meet a suitable person,

if she could grow old and die in such a city, it seemed quite nice.

However, at this moment,

looking at Jiang Chen sitting beside her, Yin Luoxia suddenly had a feeling that Jiang Chen seemed to be the person she had been waiting for all along.

It's just...

Yin Luoxia sighed in her heart.

She was already over thirty years old now, and although her appearance remained at its peak thanks to her strength in the Carefree Heaven Realm,

however,

Jiang Chen was not only powerful,

but his appearance was also unmatched in the whole world; how could he possibly take a fancy to her?

"Elder Luoxia, what's wrong?"

Jiang Chen saw Yin Luoxia staring at him without speaking and thought she had thought of some difficulty again.

"Ah... nothing!"

Looking at Jiang Chen's ink-black eyes, Yin Luoxia felt her heart tremble again.

She didn't dare to look at Jiang Chen anymore, so she lowered her head, pretending to touch the mahjong tiles, and said:

"I just suddenly thought that if we open such a large gambling house, the startup capital might be quite high."

"Now that the Third City Lord hasn't returned, I don't have the authority to access Snow Moon City's treasury."

"So that's what you're worried about."

Jiang Chen smiled and said: "It's fine, just go and take however much money you need; after all, I have also served as the Fourth City Lord of Snow Moon City."

"Fourth City Lord?"

Hearing Jiang Chen's words,

except for Tiannv Rui, Yue Ji, and Brother Sikong Qianluo, all the other women looked at Jiang Chen with confusion.

However,

while Lian Xing looked at Jiang Chen, she secretly glanced at Yin Luoxia.

Because she was sitting next to Brother Sikong Qianluo, Yin Luoxia's expression just now had been clearly seen by her.
