"Really? If you truly haven’t thought about it, then your current actions don’t align with that. Shouldn’t people be honest about their desires? If you want sothing, you have to fight for it; how else can you get what you want? Ambition isn’t scary, what’s scary is not daring to admit it."
Xu Ke burst into laughter, as if he had just seen the biggest joke in the world.
"Why are you laughing here?" Even though ti had passed quickly and they hadn’t exchanged many words with Xu Ke or clashed with him, they clearly understood just how terrifying this man was.
So even if they were curious, even if they usually addressed others with an arrogant tone and a domineering attitude, when the person being questioned was Xu Ke,
they oddly lowered their voices and didn’t dare to look Xu Ke in the eye, showing a complete lack of spine.
But no one present mocked them, because everyone was stunned by Xu Ke’s performance. Even the people in the casino had only seen Xu Ke’s gentlemanly side before, like soone who walked out of the last century, with a very good temper.
Who would have thought that when this good-tempered man got angry, he was incredibly terrifying, making people afraid to breathe too hard, lest they provoke Xu Ke and end up with a punch from him, which would be disastrous.
Xu Ke acted as if he hadn’t heard the other’s words, until he laughed enough, only then did he stop, look up at the person who had spoken.
"Why I’m laughing is none of your business." Xu Ke said, looking into the other’s eyes.
In the face of such blatant mockery, yet standing across from them, not a single person dared to retort against Xu Ke, appearing utterly cowardly.
"Weren’t you all quite arrogant just now? Why are you so timid now? Why don’t you speak up, say what you want to say."
The aura of the people on the other side dropped, while those in the casino behind Xu Ke beca even more brazen because Xu Ke backed them up.
Xu Ke didn’t care about the arrogant stance of his employees behind him, because for behavior where the other side was already bullying them, if you didn’t slap them hard, they’d think you were a pushover to be trifled with.
"Don’t you think you’re being too much? After all, a guest is a guest, we saw your casino, so we’re your guests, is this how you treat guests?" Soone on the other side forced themselves to speak up in defense.
"Guests? What kind of guests are you? What guests would do sothing like this? For goodness sake, have so self-respect. Isn’t there an old saying that trees live for their bark and people live for their face? Is that old saying a lie?" Soone inside the casino said loudly.
The people on the other side dared not raise their heads to look at the people in the casino, only felt their faces burn with pain, but they didn’t stop their brothers from their side, instead lowered their heads, used an ostrich-like thod of avoidance to pretend as if such a thing never happened.
It seed only by using this thod could they find so comfort for their wounded spirits.
"People like you who co looking for a fight, weren’t you already prepared to hit and get hit? Do you really think our casino has nobody to fight back? That you could bully and insult as you wish?" Another employee shouted.
After a long ti in the casino, colleagues got along well, and thus developed a sense of belonging to the casino.
For him, the behavior of the opposite side coming to provoke was like slapping his face, akin to seeing him as easy to bully, a form of unreasonable provocation.
This behavior was immoral and needed to be stopped, so when the fight started, he fought fiercely, a reckless fighting style where as he injured others, he also got hurt.
"You’ve seen it, your actions have greatly upset my employees, so shouldn’t you take so redial action? Or do I have to take care of each of you before you realize what a huge mistake you’ve made?"
Xu Ke looked at the person across who still wanted to speak and said.
Hearing Xu Ke say he’d deal with them one by one, their gaze uncontrollably drifted to their Boss.
Seeing their Boss with a crooked nose, slanted eyes, and a bloody face, their bodies shivered instinctively.
"What do you want?" The henchn on the other side couldn’t withstand Xu Ke’s pressure and finally asked.
The mont they spoke, it signified that they had completely lost control of the situation, which was now in Xu Ke’s hands.
They were like fish on a chopping board, and Xu Ke was the knife; they could only let Xu Ke slice them, helpless to escape this limited space.
"What do we want? Of course, we want compensation for our losses from you, due to your unreasonable behavior today. You caused our custor loss and damaged various equipnt in our casino. This expense is on you." Xu Ke said.
"If you can’t co up with the money today, then none of you will leave this casino alive. I will use your lives, your blood, your flesh, and bones to bury the damage caused to my casino and the lost revenue."
Soone standing next to Xue Ke respectfully handed Xu Ke a handkerchief, which Xu Ke used to gently wipe the blood off his face.
Xu Ke said it casually, but those listening didn’t feel at ease, their expressions filled with hesitation.
"Don’t think I’m joking today. I’m in the casino business; surely, you don’t think I won’t kill people, do you? Since ancient tis, those who deal in vice, drugs, and gambling, whose hands haven’t been stained with blood?" Xu Ke looked at the hesitant faces and pushed them hard.
"It’s seven o’clock now. I give you two hours, five hundred million. If you can’t co up with this money to compensate today, then you won’t leave here alive." Xu Ke said, holding up five fingers.
The exorbitant five hundred million compensation left everyone present in shock.
Five hundred million! Not fifty million and not five million. How could you possibly co up with such a huge sum in two hours?
Standing behind Xu Ke, soone couldn’t resist wanting to lean closer to Xu Ke’s ear and urge him to reconsider his plan.
"Boss, isn’t five hundred million a bit too much?" Soone in the casino who usually had a say carefully walked behind Xu Ke and whispered.
Clearly, before today, they had called Xu Ke "Mr. Xu", but today, after such a big fight, they began to call Xu Ke "Boss".
