Chapter 265 Mr. Lu’s Request

After Xiao Bing whispered love words with Sweetheart, he accompanied her to sign the papers of resignation, lest the girl got caught in any trouble. Lu Yuanlong sighed as he looked at the girl, “You’ve been doing well in this place. You are a good girl who has never fought with other girls. Actually, I have always thought highly of you.”

Sweetheart apologized, “Mr. Lu, I’m really sorry.”

“It’s okay. It’s actually a good thing. We all wish the best for our employees. After all you can’t stay here forever.”

Xiao Bing smiled, “You are a reasonable man.”

Lu Yuanlong sighed, “Though I’m kind of a leader here, I’m still one of someone’s employees? Girls better make money as much as possible while they are still young and get married if they meet a decent man. If there is an employee who can have a brighter future than this, I won’t stop him or her from leaving. I want them all to be happy.”

What Lu Yuanlong said was a half-truth. He merely wanted to do Xiao Bing a favor. He thought Xiao Bing might have fallen in love with this girl, which was why he wanted to take her with him.

Xiao Bing also knew Lu Yuanlong’s purpose and he knew that there was another reason behind it. Most likely they did it to curry favor with Mr. Yu since they didn’t know his true identity. They assumed that he must have a good relationship with Yu Wenhua since he was escorted here in Yu Wenhua’s car. It would be beneficial for them if Xiao Bing would say nice things about them in front of Yu Wenhua.

As he had expected, after the steward had feigned some compliments, he whispered to Xiao Bing’s ears, “Dragon Master, that car you were in belongs to Mr. Yu, right?”

Xiao Bing sniggered inwardly. He nodded calmly, “It is Uncle Yu’s.”

Lu Yuanlong knew he’d hit the mark when Xiao Bing said “Uncle Yu”. Actually, he had been worried that Xiao Bing might merely know Yu Wenhua’s driver. However, if Xiao Bing was not an acquaintance of Yu Wenhua, the driver wouldn’t have dared to drive Xiao Bing to a place like this. So he still chose to take a gamble. And from what he’d just heard, his first step was at least right.

Lu Yuanlong said delightedly, “That’s wonderful. Dragon Master, may I speak to you in private?”

Xiao Bing looked at Sweetheart, who gave a knowing smile, “Go on with him. I should pack my bags now.”

Xiao Bing looked at Lu Yuanlong and said, “Alright, let’s go.”

Lu Yuanlong sounded very polite, “Please follow me. We’ll have good tea prepared for you upstairs.”

Xiao Bing followed him into a room upstairs. Lu Yuanlong smiled, “Dragon Master, please seat yourself. This is my room.”

Xiao Bing sat on the sofa. Lu Yuanlong made tea for him and placed the cup on the table near Xiao Bing. “From your character, I can tell you are from a prominent family.”

Xiao Bing smiled faintly, “It doesn’t matter where I’m from. Just tell me what this is about. Does this concern Uncle Yu?”

“Sort of.” Lu Yuanlong asked. “What’s your relationship with him?”

Xiao Bing pondered for a moment and said, “Yu Miao is a good friend of mine.”

Since Lu Yuanlong had long been craving for a relationship with the Yu family, he knew that Yu Wenhua had a son called Yu Miao. Yu Wenhua only had one son, so he paid much attention to his son’s education because he wanted Yu Miao to be a worthy successor.

Indeed Xiao Bing shared a good relationship with Yu Miao. He even called Yu Miao’s father “uncle”, which made Lu Yuanlong believe that Xiao Bing didn’t merely know Yu Miao. He assumed that maybe the Yu family and the Long family were family friends. In his memory, sons and daughters of a big family won’t make friends with just anyone. But he had not heard of the Long family. However, since Xiao Bing didn’t want to talk about it, he wouldn’t bring it up. After all, his target was Yu Wenhua.

The smile on Lu Yuanlong’s face became more amiable. “I was told that Young Master Yu Miao was also a very capable man. He is considered the most prominent young man in Hei Province. Birds of a feather flock together. I’m sure Dragon Master is not an ordinary man either.”

Xiao Bing waved his hands and said, “Don’t try to flatter me. Just say what you want. I don’t like mealy-mouthed people.”

Lu Yuanlong’s mind went blank for a moment and then he guffawed, “It looks like the Dragon Master is a very straightforward man. Alright, I’ll tell you what I want then.”

Lu Yuanlong looked at Xiao Bing earnestly and asked, “We have been looking for an opportunity to meet Mr. Yu. I wonder if the Dragon Master can help us on that matter.”

“You want to see Mr. Yu?” Xiao Bing asked, “Then why don’t you just make an appointment?

Lu Yuanlong smiled, “We tried. But Mr. Yu seems to be avoiding us. I suppose that you can understand people in our profession always have to be on tenterhooks because what we do here is against the law. It’s inevitable to have such a place in every corner of the world. Some people can do it well while others can’t. It depends on one’s capabilities. We have always been wanting to see Mr. Yu. We don’t mean to bribe him because his wife is a successful businesswoman, which means he doesn’t lack money. But it won’t hurt if he and I could sit down and have some tea.”

“Uncle Yu refuses to see you?” Xiao Bing rubbed his nose, “Then it’s complicated. I doubt if I can influence him.”

“We know that. We just want the Dagon Master to say some nice things about us to Mr. Yu.”

“No problem.” Xiao Bing thought inwardly, “Actually you won’t know if I will do it or not, so why not do you this favor?”

Lu Yuanlong smiled, “Dragon Master, is it convenient for you to give me your number?”

Xiao Bing had not intended to develop a deeper relationship with Lu Yuanlong. But he had begun taking over the underground world of Hei province while there was an illegal casino in Harbin. What interested him more was that Yu Wenhua, a man who hated this kind of activity to the bone, acquiesced its existence. Xiao Bing instinctively believed that his purpose of meeting Mr. Yu was not just about running this casino without official disturbance. There was more to this.

Xiao Bing had intended to refuse, but changed his mind. He gave his number to Lu Yuanlong and said, “I’ll try my best. I will get going if there’s nothing else. And the tea is very nice.”

Lu Yuanlong guffawed, “Please wait for a few seconds, I’ll escort you out.”

Lu Yuanlong turned around and walked over to a cabinet. He soon came back to Xiao Bing with a plastic bag in his hand. “This is the best tea you can find here. I’m an uncouth fellow who doesn’t know much about tea. I’m sure the Dragon Master knows how to make use of this.”

Xiao Bing didn’t refuse. Lu Yuanlong wanted something from Xiao Bing. He didn’t want to arouse Lu Yuanlong’s suspicion by refusing the tea. So Xiao Bing took it, walked out of the room and went downstairs with Lu Yuanlong.

Lu Yuanlong asked, “Where do you live. Would you like a ride?”

“No need. I’ll just call a taxi.”

Sweet Heart packed her bags and left the mansion with Xiao Bing with Lu Yuanlong escorting them to the gate. He watched them getting into a taxi before he went back to Master Xu’s room on the second floor.

Master Xu was looking out of the window when Lu Yuanlong came in. “How did it go?” He asked without turning his head.

“Indeed, this Dragon Master does not seem to be an ordinary man. He does things prudently. I asked him to recommend us to Yu Wenhua and he readily agreed.”

“Neither of us know this man. It’s hard to say if he will do it or not. Yet it’s still better than having no one to speak for us. As long as you have enough bait, you don’t need to worry about the fish. Humph, what a stubborn man. He won’t even give us a chance…”

After they entered the taxi, Xiao Bing said to Sweetheart, “Where do you want to go? I’ll get the driver to send you there first.”

“The train station.”

“To your hometown? Don’t you need to buy tickets?”

“No,” Sweetheart said urgently. “There are many buses heading to my hometown. I haven’t been home for quite a while. I should stay with my family. Then I will start a small business and make enough money to buy me a house…”

Xiao Bing smiled, “You’re a good girl. Mr. Driver, please go to the station first…”

Xiao Bing saw the girl off at the station and the two parted reluctantly. Then Xiao Bing asked the driver to send him to the hotel. But he gasped the moment he stepped into the hall. He never expected to see the two young siblings from the Luo family. They had gambled with Xiao Bing before.

There were a bunch of guards surrounding the two. They were about to have a rest after taking a stroll outside. While they about to go upstairs, Luo Hao turned his head and happened to see Xiao Bing walking into the hall. He was surprised, “It’s you!”
