Arriving at the hotel, they booked rooms, Zhao Xiaodao went to catch up on sleep and adjust to the ti difference, and Lu Zheng sent Zhang Weili to rest, while he took the four won out shopping.
Shen Ying laughed, "Weren’t you saying you wanted to stay with Xiaodao and the others?"
Lu Zheng was speechless, "It’s broad daylight, what could happen? Are we cursed that trouble follows us wherever we go?"
Lin Wan glanced sideways at Lu Zheng, saying nothing.
"Whack!"
Lu Zheng received a smack on the behind, rubbing his hands as he spoke, "Don’t think I didn’t see your expression just now..."
Lin Wan pouted, wordlessly linking arms with Shen Ying, "Let’s go shopping on Central Avenue. I’ve been here once on a mission before, but never had a proper look around."
Las Vegas doesn’t have natural scenery, it started as a desert town and eventually beca a world-famous entertainnt city by taking a different path.
The group first arrived at City Center Avenue, the most bustling place in Las Vegas, even during the day it’s crowded with tourists.
"What do you an by ’even during the day’..."
"Because Las Vegas is known as the City That Never Sleeps, or rather, many people equate the City That Never Sleeps with Las Vegas."
Lin Wan shrugged, "All kinds of shows, events, and bars only open at night."
Although many shows and entertainnt venues only open at night, it doesn’t an there are no activities during the day.
Ferris wheels, roller coasters, wax museums, comic experience galleries, the Statue of Liberty, etc.
It’s mainly this foreign atmosphere that intrigued Si Lingxi and the other three won.
"The feeling here is different from Australia."
Shen Ying looked at the various grand hotels around Central Avenue, "Although it doesn’t seem as bustling as Hai City Center, it has a decadent and extravagant feel."
Liu Qingyan nodded, "Because this place is purely for tourists to enjoy, there are only servers and tourists here, no office workers."
"It really does make you forget all your troubles," Lin Wan said.
Lu Zheng pointed at the surrounding grand hotels, "And then lose all your money."
Everyone laughed at his words, Shen Ying chuckled, "By the way, when we go out on trips, we never spend any money. When is Lu Lang going to the casino to win back so money?"
...
An hour later, the five of them returned to the restaurant at MGM Grand Hotel.
Zhao Xiaodao appeared looking refreshed.
"You all didn’t need to adjust to the ti difference?" Zhao Xiaodao asked the won, enviously, "Where did you just go? You all look so happy."
Shen Ying laughed, "Lu Zheng just won ten thousand bucks, so our expenses for this trip are covered."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaodao’s eyes lit up, instantly dropping her envy and speaking with enthusiasm, "Can you use True Qi to control the direction of the dice and the results of the roulette? How much do you want to win?"
Lu Zheng nearly spat out his water, while Lin Wan noticed the gleam in Zhao Xiaodao’s eyes.
"I’ve read Jin Yong, if Hu Fei could do it, surely Brother Lu can too?"
The won all looked amusedly at Lu Zheng, who promptly nodded and admitted, "No problem, if I want, I could bankrupt these grand hotels, even the gambling gods wouldn’t stand a chance, I’m telling you!"
Zhao Xiaodao: (ง˙o˙)ว
"Then after watching Wei Li’s match tonight, let’s go have so fun!" Zhao Xiaodao said excitedly.
Lu Zheng joked, "Aren’t you afraid the casino will cause us trouble?"
"We’re not winning much, just a hundred and eighty thousand or so, surely the casinos in the Lighthouse Country aren’t that stingy?" Zhao Xiaodao asked.
Being a top-tier celebrity in Hua Country, she feared nothing through official channels, and as for privately... if she were alone here, she might feel anxious, but she was with Lu Zheng now.
After the Africa incident, Zhao Xiaodao’s courage had grown sky-high; could the gangs in the Lighthouse Country be worse than the rebel forces in Africa?
Do you have heavy machine guns and rocket launchers?
"Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!"
Lu Zheng said with a smile, "You provide the initial funds, and I’ll give you a share of the winnings."
"Alright, that way I can feel more involved!" Zhao Xiaodao agreed cheerfully.
She had deep roots in the dostic market and hadn’t traveled abroad much, mostly catwalking in Europe, but never been to North Arica before, this was her first ti stepping foot in the Lighthouse Country.
"When you guys went out just now, what was fun in Las Vegas?" Zhao Xiaodao asked.
"Ferris wheels, roller coasters, wax museums, just these kinds of things, but the atmosphere is different from ho," Lin Wan said, "It gives a very open vibe, but apparently night-ti is the true Las Vegas."
Zhao Xiaodao nodded, then shook her head, "If I ca alone, there’s no way I’d leave the hotel at night, but now that Lu Zheng is here, I’ll just follow you!"
Lu Zheng, "..."
I wish I could follow you!
"It’s not that scary!"
Lin Wan remarked with a laugh, "Las Vegas’s public safety is pretty good, otherwise how would it attract tourists from the Lighthouse Country and around the world?"
Lin Wan shrugged, "Trust , the powder rchants here guarantee the quality of their goods, even the streetwalkers won’t pull an Immortal Jump on you.
This place will only give tourists a happy, ho-like feeling, the criminals here don’t target tourists, their enemies are their peers.
As long as you clearly refuse, no one will pursue you, I’m with Interpol and I’ve read reports on this, so I know the security situation here.
So you can play here boldly, just don’t risk going into dark alleys and you’ll be safe."
Zhao Xiaodao: Õ_Õ
...
The group went out again in the afternoon, bought so clothes, costics, and souvenirs, and returned to the hotel around four o’clock.
"Wei Li is probably rested and prepared by now, let’s go find her and head to the hotel arena," Zhao Xiaodao suggested.
The site for this title defense was the MGM Grand Hotel’s arena hall.
Zhang Weili hadn’t trained today, but had spent all day receiving massages and adjustnts, now resting in her suite.
The group arrived at the door just in ti to see Zhang Weili’s coach open the door for guests, as a man and woman stepped out of the suite.
"We sincerely hope Miss Zhang considers this carefully."
The man chuckled, then led the glamorous woman toward the elevator, brushing past Lu Zheng and his companions.
The man glanced at Lu Zheng and his group, nodded with a smile, then passed by them and entered the elevator.
Zhang Weili’s coach knew Lu Zheng and had seen Lin Wan before, so he welcod them inside.
"Wei Li, we’re here. Tonight we’ll be cheering for you from the inner seats!" Zhao Xiaodao said cheerfully, then noticed Zhang Weili’s expression was off, "Hey, what’s wrong?"
Zhang Weili didn’t have the chance to speak before her coach said angrily, "Soone wants Wei Li to deliberately lose the match!"
