Ch.285 Gambling (9)
Curling over with his blanket, the man muttered with a frown, "Hush, go to sleep, baby. My baby really doesn't disappoint, helping me win against that stupid bitch Lin Yueqi... My baby..."
The man's voice was getting softer and softer, and he began to snore.
But Le Xiao didn't feel like sleeping at all. She immediately got up from bed and rushed into the bathroom to check herself in the mirror.
Her skin was still smooth and tender, and she was pretty as usual, not aged at all. She had to say that when she was younger, her face value was really not bad, and her daughter also inherited that beauty.
Her daughter's appearance wasn't as pretty as Qin Xue at her peak, but it was also considered one of the best in the entertainment industry. She was a transmigrator and knows what the entertainment industry will be like in a decade or so.
After ten years, her daughter's face will become sought after in the entertainment circle.
And, in ten years, Zhuang Boshan will also make his company grow even bigger, surpassing Jiachen Media.
The reason why Le Xiao wanted her daughter to latch onto Zhuang Boshan early was so she could wave the way early for her. With Zhuang Boshan as her backer, her daughter's future will definitely grow brighter and brighter.
She looked at her beautiful self in the mirror for a while longer, and was relieved that she had not been punished with "turning older" and "being beaten up as a monster".
But at the same time, she received several text messages:
Mara Island front desk: "Hello Ms. Le. A tornado suddenly appeared on the sea, and your yacht docked on the west coast was swept away."
District property: "Hello Ms. Le. A meteorite suddenly fell from the sky and happened to hit your home, destroying your villa. Please contact us as soon as possible to follow up on this matter. [image]"
In the picture, her villa was completely smashed. Even her garage collapsed. In her car insurance, natural disasters such as tsunamis and rainstorms are compensated, but not earthquakes. Naturally, for something like a meteorite smashing into her home, it was even more unlikely for something like that to be compensated.
Overnight, she lost her villa, her car, her yacht, and her jewelry...
And, the "heavenly fortune" function in her system was also locked. What was she going to do in the future? Right now, she hasn't even met Mr. Si yet. She had to spend money and rush into high society as soon as possible.
It was said that Mr. Si was holding a masked ball on the island next week, which would be a good opportunity for her.
The ball was very special. Money was needed to purchase clothes and masks on the island. Without money, how was she going to enter the ball?
Very soon, she remembered Mara Island's credit function.
With her current rank, she could get nearly 50 million chips on credit. With her luck, wouldn't it be possible to win another 100 million, or even more?
When she thought of this, her hopes were raised again.
Early the next morning, Le Xiao got her 50 million chips and went up to the third floor to gamble.
She thought she could win more and more through gambling, but she didn't expect to lose more and more money.
Very soon, she lost all the 50 million. Le Xiao was very unconvinced and immediately called Zhuang Boshan to lend her 50 million. But in just half an hour, she lost all the money.
She had no more chips and was scared to death by the amount of debt incurred under her name. Losing a total of 100 million front and back, her face was now as pale as a sheet of paper.
In the end, she was had to be carried back to the hotel by a few staff members. She laid in bed for an hour, and her body was still shaking uncontrollably.
Her mind was blank...
Shrinking under the covers, she shivered. She wished she could just cut off her hands. When she remembered her husband who jumped to his own death, she slapped herself a few times.
How could she...lose control of her two hands?
Right at this time, a shit-faced Zhuang Boshan had just returned from outside and saw Le Xiao lying on the bed. Lifting up the blanket from her feet, he slipped inside.
He kissed the woman's body frantically, but he soon realized that something was wrong.
Why wasn't this skin smooth at all? Why was it as dry as tree bark?
The more he thought about it, the less it made sense. Lifting up the quilt, Zhuang Boshan was so shocked that he screamed, falling directly off the bed.
This was no Le Xiao, This was clearly a monster!
Hair going down her shoulders, she was all skin and bones and her body was covered in pockmarks. Especially the eyes that were jutting out. They almost looked like they were going to roll out of her eye sockets.
The monster's hands and feet were tied firmly with a rope that was hanging over the beams of the ceiling.
This was the rope that the system had specifically set up for the "hung and beaten for 5 minutes" punishment.
Zhuang Boshan did not dare to delay. He quickly pulled on the rope, hanging up this "monster". She was swaying gently from the beam just like a dried corpse.
The man was completely shocked. Golding a whip in his hands, he began whipping her body. The trail of green blood coming out of her body clearly showed that this was not human.
After 5 minutes, Zhuang Boshan dropped the whip and ran outside, shouting, "G...Ghost!"
