The dealer warned her in a low voice. Huo Qing realized that this was the Yun family’s territory.
She sat back down indignantly. Huo Qing still couldn’t take it lying down.
“No! Let’s have another round!”
“Miss Huo, you don’t have any leverage.”
The dealer reminded her again.
Huo Qing’s face froze. The surrounding spectators sneered, and her expression became even worse.
As she looked down at the jade ring in her hand, Huo Qing gritted her teeth and pushed the ring in front of the dealer. “How much is this ring worth?”
She had stolen this ring from Grandfather Huo’s study. She had always dressed up, but she had never thought that she would have to give it away.
In the entire Huo family, apart from Huo Chuan, this ring was the one that Grandfather Huo had loved the most.
Even if Huo Qing had ten guts, she would not dare to give it away.
But now…
Huo Qing looked ahead with a malicious gaze. That well-dressed man was an eyesore.
When she turned the tables this round, the ring would come back when she had the money.
Huo Qing was now a gambler who had lost so badly that she couldn’t care less.
She didn’t even notice that the dealer and the man in front of her had looked at each other meaningfully.
The sound of the card falling was like a heavy hammer hitting Huo Qing’s heart.
When she opened the card in her hand, Huo Qing’s eyes lit up. She was sure that she would win.
“Open!”
She opened the card with a heroic voice. Huo Qing looked confidently at the card on the opposite table. Instantly, her face turned as pale as paper —
It was just slightly bigger than her hand.
It’s over…
Huo Qing’s brain froze on the spot, and her face was completely drained of blood.
When she came back to her senses, Huo Qing saw the man who had defeated her turn into a corner.
…
In the corner.
Guan Yao patted Zhang He’s shoulder with a smile and praised, “Well done, you’ve exceeded your quota!”
As he spoke, he eagerly handed the jade ring to Yun Qing. “Vice President Yun, do you like it?”
Yun Qing smiled. She never thought that Huo Qing would be so bold as to give up Grandfather Huo’s treasure.
Did Huo Qing want to die?
Initially, she had only asked Guan Yao to find the best hands in the casino and help the casino win back the 50 million.
After all, she did not really want to see Huo Qing’s arrogant and domineering face.
Who would have thought that she would pick up a ring for free?
If she remembered correctly, her ex-mother-in-law had once bragged to her that this ring was a treasure passed down from the Huo family’s ancestors and was an item of the ancient royal family.
Just as Yun Qing was pondering whether to give the ring to her brother or her father, an angry roar suddenly came from behind her.
“Yun, Qing!
“So you were the one behind this!”
Huo Qing came over.
Guan Yao stepped in to block her way. Huo Qing scratched his face several times. “Miss Huo, please calm down. Vice President Yun had no choice!”
“I’m going to sue you! You’re cheating!”
Huo Qing cursed angrily, and her eyes looked like they could spit fire as she stared straight at Yun Qing.
Yun Qing smiled and remained unmoved. “Miss Huo, you have a debt with us. We just want our things back.
“Or do you want to see your bills sent back to the Huo Family?”
Huo Qing’s expression changed. It was true that she owed the gambling debts at the casino, but she still had the title of Miss Huo!
She never thought that one day, Yun Qing would claim her debt.
A servant of the Huo family, a slut who was looked down by everyone, actually dared to ask for money from her?!
Miss Huo only felt that her face had been smashed to the ground, and she had been trampled under Yun Qing’s feet.
The humiliation made Huo Qing furious. She immediately cursed, “Yun Qing, what are you so arrogant for?!
“You still dare to ask me for money?!”
“Have you forgotten how you served me when you were at the Huo Family? You served me tea, washed my clothes, and cooked. You even cleaned the toilet in my bathroom. Oh right, you even washed my feet! I will never forget the way you kneeled in front of me and rubbed my feet!
“It’s a pity that I didn’t record it. Otherwise, everyone would know what kind of person you are!”
Huo Qing placed her hands on her hips and continued to chatter as she recounted everything that Yun Qing had done in the past.
Yun Qing listened with a smile on her face. It was impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.
“Yun Qing, the Huo family has been supporting you for the past three years. I won’t even give you fifty cents, let alone fifty million!
“You are a parasite of the Huo family!”
The more Huo Qing spoke, the more pleased she became. When she looked at Yun Qing’s silent expression, her heart was filled with joy.
It was until Huo Chuan’s voice exploded in her ears.
“Huo Qing, what you just said, is it true?”
