“For a friend of mine.” Jiang Yining patted him like a buddy on the shoulder and continued, “Don't worry, I'll borrow 800,000 yuan and return you a million yuan. I won't let you lend me the money for nothing.”

“Where would you get so much money to pay me back?”

“Isn't it enough that I'll pay you back? You don't have to ask so many questions.” Jiang Yining didn't want to tell him.

“800,000 isn't a small amount. If 1 can't even ask you this, how can I lend you the money with peace of mind?” Lu Zhi retorted. “What if you took my money and ran away? Who will I get it back from?”

Such a petty man.

He was worth hundreds of billions, and he had been so generous with her salary last time.

But he was now dawdling over a loan of 800,000 yuan…

Jiang Yining took a deep breath and said, “I'll give you something as collateral.”

She carefully took off the necklace she was wearing and stuffed it into his hands.

“This is a relic my mother left me. It's inlaid with emerald and it's worth more than a million yuan. You can give it back to me when I return the money to you, okay?”

Lu Zhi held the necklace that was still warm from her body and smiled. “I'm just joking with you. Why are you so anxious? 800,000 is nothing to me.”

“Then give me back the necklace!” Jiang Yining said immediately.

“No.” Lu Zhi rejected her without hesitation and put the necklace in his pocket.

Jiang Yining was speechless. She wanted to blow his head off.

“Then please keep it well. It's very important to me. I'll fight you to death if you ever lose it!” She cautioned him with worry and threatened him at the same time.

“Why are you so fierce when you are borrowing money from me? Looks like you don't need the loan after all.”

Lu Zhi's expression was cold.

Jiang Yining's face immediately changed. She cracked a fawning smile and said, “It's my fault. I shouldn't have been so fierce to you. Hubby, you're a magnanimous person. Don't hold it against a small fry like me.”

Lu Zhi stroked her soft hair and said, “That's better.”

Why did she feel like he was touching her head like he was patting a dog?

Jiang Yining complained in her heart while she said gently, “Then, when do you think it's convenient for you to give me the money? I'm in a hurry. Can you give it to me in two days?”

“I'll give it to you now.”

Lu Zhi wrote her a check of 800,000 yuan and signed it.

He handed the check to her.

Jiang Yining was reaching out to take it when he retracted his hand.

Jiang Yining was instantly enraged, and her black grape-like eyes widened.

What was he doing?

Was he playing with her?

“Lu Zhi…”

“One last question. Is your friend a man or a woman?” Lu Zhi looked straight at her.

“A woman!” Jiang Yining replied impatiently.

What did that have anything to do with her borrowing money from him? Was he not going to lend her if her friend was a man?

Lu Zhi was pleased when he heard this. He put the check in her hand and said, “There's no hurry to pay back the money. Just don't do anything bad.”

“Okay.” Jiang Yining was happy to receive the money, and her tone was much lighter.

“Thank you so much.”

She gave him a wave, turned, and walked away nonchalantly.

Lu Zhi closed the bedroom door and took out his phone to call Qi Feng. “Find someone to post a help wanted ad on the dark web for one million yuan. Also, send someone to watch Yining over the next few days to see what she's up to.”

“Yes, sir.”

Was Jiang Yining really Queen?

He should be able to find out this time.

Jiang Yining found the casino where Dou Weizhen owed 800,000 yuan based on clues provided by an informant. She then brought Ye Xiaoxi to see the person in charge of that casino, He Ming, to pay off her mother's gambling debt.

He Ming saw that she was just a young girl and did not take her seriously at all. He even tried to play punk. “She does owe us 800,000 yuan, but she can't just pay 800,000 yuan. Do you think our casino is a charity? Lending her so much money for nothing? There's interest to be calculated.”

“It has only been three days.”

“Isn't three days a duration?”

“Alright, how much is the interest for three days then?” Jiang Yining asked calmly.

“50,000 yuan. If you can pay me everything today, I'll wipe off her debt immediately!” He Ming was clearly trying to be funny to scam them for more money.

Three days' interest of 50,000 yuan!

Even loan sharks weren't this cruel!

Ye Xiaoxi protested angrily, “That's extortion! Do you think we're stupid?”

He Ming laughed out loud. “Extortion? Little missy, why don't you look around you now? If I wanted to extort you, do you think you can walk out of my casino?”

All the bodyguards standing behind him crossed their arms when they heard this.

Ye Xiaoxi's heart sank.

Jiang Yining's expression remained unchanged. “I only brought 800,000 yuan today. I don't have any extra money.”

“It's okay. I can give you more time to raise the money. But remember, if you're late by a day, you'll have to pay an additional 20,000 yuan in interest.” He Ming said smugly.

Jiang Yining replied calmly, “There's no need to raise money. Isn't this a casino? 1'11 take out my 800,000 yuan to win 50,000 yuan and pay you back everything. Isn't that better?”

“Yining!” Ye Xiaoxi said as she nervously grabbed Jiang Yining's wrist, her eyes filled with confusion.

Jiang Yining knew that the house always won, so why would she still gamble?

Ye Xiaoxi would rather borrow 50,000 yuan than let Yining gamble like her mother!

“It's okay. Trust me.”

Jiang Yining gently patted Ye Xiaoxi's hand and turned to look at He Ming.

“What? You don't welcome me?”

“Welcome! Of course, I welcome you! But are you sure you want to bet with me? Kiddo, don't cry when you lose. You are so beautiful that I'll feel sorry for you.”

He Ming smiled maliciously.

“We don't know yet who will cry,” Jiang Yining said confidently.

“Good, you have guts! Someone, open a table. I'll play a game with this kid!” He Ming waved his hand.

His men immediately cleared the area and brought out the chips.

Jiang Yining glanced at him and said, “You run a casino here. You want me to play a table game with you? Aren't you just waiting for me to lose?”

“Then what would you like to play?” He Ming asked.

“Knife-throwing.” The moment Jiang Yining entered the room, she saw several knife-throwing targets around the room.

When He Ming heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He was a trained knife-thrower since he was three and already an expert!

She was just a kid, yet she wanted to compete with him in this!

She was so wet behind the ears!

“Are you sure you want to play this game?”

“Yes, I am,” Jiang Yining replied definitively. “I'll bet all 800,000 yuan at once. If I win, Dou Weizhen's debt will be wiped, and you can never find trouble with Ye Xiaoxi again. If 1 lose, I'll give you all 800,000 yuan and 1'11 find some other money to settle the debt.”

“That's very high stakes for you!” He Ming laughed. “How about this? If you lose, I won't take a penny from you as long as you sleep with me for one night. We'll be even after that.”

The room burst into laughter when the others heard this.

Ye Xiaoxi's face turned pale. “Yining, don't bet with him. Let's go.”

Jiang Yining gently rolled the dice and replied, “Okay. Deal.”

“Yining…”

“Don't worry, 1 have a way to get myself out of this.” Jiang Yining gave Ye Xiaoxi a look, which for some reason, made her less worried but she was still nervous.

“Great!” He Ming asked confidently, “How shall we go about this?”

“One game to decide the winner. You go first.” Jiang Yining replied calmly..
