The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine

Chapter 487: Chapter 487: Indeed, Trouble Has Occurred!

It can be said that Huang Xiaolong’s woman is his inverse scale!

If a dragon’s inverse scale is touched, death is inevitable!

Someone actually kidnapped Sister Xiaoman and her brother…

Die!

Within Huang Xiaolong, a surge of murderous intent erupted!

‘Sigh~~ There are always some blind fools who try to provoke me. I never wanted to become a killer, however, you all have been too provocative…’

But, Huang Xiaolong felt things seeming a bit off.

He had specifically assigned Gui Mengyao, dressed in purple, to protect his women in Binhai. Surely, Su Xiaoman was within that protective range, how did she get kidnapped?

Could it be possible that, the person who kidnapped Su Xiaoman and her brother is even more formidable than Mengyao?

Can’t be! Even if the King of Ghosts were absent, the Purple Ghost is virtually invincible!

“No, no, no! Mr. Huang, you’re mistaken! You’re really mistaken!” On the other end of the call, Minghui promptly began to explain. “We only invited Ms. Su Xiaoman and Mr. Su Xiaoqiang to be our guests. There was no disrespect whatsoever. Quite the contrary, we treated them as esteemed guests!”

Minghui’s voice was so sincere that it was hard to detect any ill-will in his words.

Huang Xiaolong gestured for Zhou Yuewen to wait while he continued the conversation with Minghui.

“Mr. Huang, you can now listen to what Ms. Su Xiaoman and Mr. Su Xiaoqiang have to say… please make sure not to get angry.” It seemed that Minghui had switched on the speakerphone.

Soon enough, Huang Xiaolong heard Su Xiaoman’s voice—”Little Long…I… Xiao Qiang and I have been brought to a… a very, very luxurious place… Are they your friends? I have my own servants here, they even gave me a VIP card, I can… I can freely spend in their mall. What’s going on?”

Also heard from the phone, Su Xiaoqiang was yelling enthusiastically, his voice revealing a degree of euphoria. “Ha-ha-ha~ Brother-in-law! Your connections are impressive! This place is great! Food and drink are unlimited, and every day we are served delicacies. Ha ha ha ha~~~ Last night, they even offered me a…service…I saw, all top-level beauties…and also some C- or D- list actresses… Wow! If not for my sister holding onto me, I would have… Ah ha ha ha! Brother-in-law, we’re all men, you understand. Anyway, brother-in-law, if you’re busy, just go ahead, no need to worry about my sister and me, we’re all good here, to the point that it can’t get any better… Ha ha ha~~~”

Well, listening to Su Xiaoqiang’s account, it seemed that he and Su Xiaoman were not being kidnapped but were actually enjoying themselves…

“Mr. Huang, now you know that we have no ill intentions, right?” Minghui chuckled.

“What do you guys actually want?” said Huang Xiaolong, his anger subsiding slightly. “But let me warn you, if even a single hair on my Sister Xiaoman’s head is harmed, I swear every single one of you is going straight to hell. I guarantee it.”

“Mr. Huang, there’s no need for this. We shouldn’t be so hostile,” said Minghui, attempting to be as amiable as possible. “The thing is, Mr. Huang, you’ve broken the gaming industry’s rules. We understand, of course, that you certainly didn’t do this on purpose. Maybe, you were unknowing of the rules.”

“Which industry?” Huang Xiaolong frowned.

“The gambling industry,” explained Minghui breezily. “Mr. Huang, each industry has its rules. No person can disregard those rules. You’re a highly skilled gambler and can be called a gambling expert. In the gambling industry, normally, gambling experts are not allowed to take money from any casino. Because this could be seen as a provocation.”

“Later on, we checked and found that you haven’t registered in the World Gambling Association, which means you don’t belong to any organization, you’re an independent gambler. I can understand if you’re a local expert. You aren’t knowledgeable about the rules and thus unintentionally violated them.” Minghui’s tone was friendly and cordial.

“I don’t know any rules. Now, enough with the nonsense, what do I need to do to get my Sister Xiaoman released?” Huang Xiaolong wondered to himself, what the hell do I care about your stupid rules!

“Well, Mr. Huang, now you have two options,” said Minghui, smiling. “The first option is to be inducted by us. ahem, based on the surveillance footage of the Flower Lake Casino, we assessed your gambling skills. You meet all the requirements to be adopted by our company. Our company operates casinos in various places across Huaxia, including Hong Kong, Macau, and even Las Vegas. The Flower Lake Casino is just a tiny little one. Provided that you become a gambling expert for our company, we will offer you a generous salary.”

“Hehe~~” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.

“Mr. Huang, we’re thinking, an annual salary of 10 million British pounds, with bonuses included, how does that sound to you?” There was a sense of confidence and certainty in Minghui’s voice, as if he thought he had Huang Xiaolong in the palm of his hand. “Mr. Huang, we’re talking British pounds, not RMB.”

Indeed, with an annual salary of 10 million British Pounds, the amount is truly astronomical.

This was indeed a staggering figure.

Even some elites in society might not be able to earn this much in their lifetime.

On top of that, there were potential bonuses.

This proposition was not something an ordinary person could refuse.

“Ha ha ha ha~~ It seems that the gambling industry truly is immensely profitable,” chuckled Huang Xiaolong, with a sarcastic undertone.

Of course, Minghui did not sense the disdain in Huang Xiaolong’s voice.

“Yes, Mr. Huang, you can think of it that way. The daily monetary flow of our company is an astronomical sum that you might not be able to imagine,” said Minghui, trying to hide his smug tone. “We control half of the domestic gambling industry….”

“All right, enough. I’m not interested,” said Huang Xiaolong, rejecting thee offer outright. “Didn’t you say you’re giving me two options? Let’s hear the next one.”

Silence followed.

Minghui was silent for a whole half minute!

Perhaps, he did not anticipate that Huang Xiaolong would reject his offer!

And the rejection was so abrupt!

“Mr. Huang, if you’re not satisfied with our offer, we can even negotiate in person…” suggested Minghui.

“Just tell me the next option,” said Huang Xiaolong, in an impatient tone.

“Well… then, okay. Mr. Huang, the so-called second option is… for you to engage in a gambling showdown, at the gambling table, with our company’s gambling expert. After all, you’ve already provoked our company, and so, we must get an explanation,” said Minghui. “We hope that you can understand us. However, rest assured, regardless of anything, we will not harm Ms. Su Xiaoman or Mr. Su Xiaoqiang.”

“Alright, I get it. This is it, I’ll come see you whenever I have time. But I’d advise you not to waste your effort on this competition, against me you’re bound to lose, no matter how capable your company’s gambling expert can be,” said Huang Xiaolong, with utmost sincerity.

“Mr. Huang, it’s really… really unfortunate that you chose the second way to resolve this issue. Well… I’ll be waiting for you in the ‘Palace of Bliss’ in Binhai City. I will not disturb Mr. Huang any longer. Goodbye. Ah… such a pity,” said Minghui, his voice full of regret as he hung up the phone.

“Idiot,” muttered Huang Xiaolong, laughing to himself.

“Master Huang, you… you asked me to check the Hengyuan Private Middle School, and… and I did…” stammered Zhou Yuewen, his face bearing a fraught look.

“What’s the situation?” inquired Huang Xiaolong.

“Master Huang…something really… really serious did happen at Hengyuan Private Middle School… A number of extremely peculiar, inexplicable incidents occurred one after the other…” Zhou Yuewen said in a shaking voice.

“What happened? Speak.” Huang Xiaolong was direct and succinct.
