Chapter 99 The Tragedy of Gu Yannian
He fantasized about Li Jinxi's delicate appearance, imagining her wearing a white wedding dress, lying in a beautifully decorated wedding room waiting for him. And he was the handsome and elegant groom, walking towards her and spending the rest of his life with her...
When Gu Yannian's chips reached more than 10 million, the trader turned his attention to the original waiter. The waiter nodded slightly, as if he had made the final decision.
At this moment, Gu Yannian, who was immersed in extreme joy, did not notice these subtle changes in details. He continued to bet crazily, without any vigilance to the situation in front of him.
However, the facts were contrary to his expectations. As time went on, he not only did not continue to win, but lost more and more.
The original chips of more than 10 million are now only more than 8 million, but Gu Yannian did not become alert or reflect on this and still stubbornly placed his bets.
At this moment, the pretty waitress standing next to him said softly, "Sir, you have won a considerable amount of money. Do you need to take a rest?"
However, how could Gu Yannian, blinded by greed, give up so easily? He replied impatiently, "No!" He had no idea that he was about to fall into a carefully designed scam.
It was not until he lost all his chips that he finally woke up from his dream and felt extremely regretful. He stared with his eyes wide open, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes. His chips that were originally full of chips were now gone, and his heart was filled with self-blame and regret.
Gu Yannian's mood was originally like riding a roller coaster. After losing all his chips, he instantly fell from the peak to the bottom.
However, just when he was in despair, the beautiful waitress appeared in front of him like an angel and whispered softly: "Sir, don't worry. We provide a special service here. We can lend you chips for betting first."
"Your fortune is so good today, I believe you will be able to win back all your losses soon! Are you interested in trying this business?"
Hearing this proposal, Gu Yannian's heart was moved. Yes, his luck has always been good. If he is given another chance, maybe he can really turn defeat into victory.
As long as he could win back the money he lost and pay off the loan, he would still be the winner. Thinking of this, his eyes gradually became firm.
Not long after, under the enthusiastic guidance of the beautiful waitress, Gu Yannian successfully borrowed a full two million chips.
With a huge amount of money in hand, he returned to the gambling table, exuding an aura of immense confidence, as if he had already mastered the code to victory.
However, what happened next put Gu Yannian into an irretrievable situation. Every time he placed a bet, he lost without exception, and this continuous failure gradually pushed him to the brink of madness.
When the last 100,000 chips were lost, Gu Yannian seemed to have lost his soul and became extremely decadent.
"I lost everything. It's over. Everything is gone..." He muttered to himself, then turned to look at the beautiful waitress and said, "The tip I gave you just now..."
However, before he could finish, the waitress interrupted him rudely: "Sir, your tip is non-refundable."
Gu Yannian had completely lost his mind at this time. He shouted anxiously: "You clearly saw it just now. My luck has always been good! Give me back the 100,000 chips. I will definitely win it back!" There was despair and pleading in his voice, as if as long as he could get the money back, he could immediately win back all the chips he had just lost.
When the waitress heard that Gu Yannian was planning to give her a tip, she turned her head and walked away. Her back seemed to be saying to Gu Yannian, "You wish!" Compared with He Yi's flattering look just now, the contrast was very big, and they were like two different people.
In the spacious and bright hall of the Li family.
After being imprisoned for three days and three nights, Li Zhong finally regained his freedom and returned home.
At the same time, the police successfully tracked down the whereabouts of the fugitive Gu Yannian through unremitting efforts - he had fled to the distant country of Xuan. Therefore, the police quickly negotiated with the relevant parties of Xuan and issued an emergency arrest warrant for him.
Before this, Lan Yaoxia and Li Jinxi had already arrived at the Li family. After learning the whole story, they rushed to comfort Cheng Dizhang as soon as possible.
Under the constant urging of their father Lan Yonggui, the two had to set off and return to Linhai City as soon as possible.
After listening to Li Zhong's detailed account, Cheng Dizhang cursed angrily, "There is no good person in the Gu family! Back then, Gu Chenghai almost destroyed our family. Now, his son has set such a sinister trap for us."
Li Zhongze sighed with regret, "I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have had anything to do with the Gu family in the first place. It's a pity that there is no medicine for regret in the world..." After saying that, he shook his head helplessly.
Lan family——
Lan Yongliang brought his family back to the city of Yan, and the house suddenly became much quieter.
In the study, there were Lan Wenda, Lan Yonggui and Lan Yaoxia.
Lan Wen replied calmly, "Did he go to Xuan Country?"
Lan Yaoxia responded firmly, "Yes, the police's transnational arrest operation is unrealistic."
Lan Yonggui echoed, "Indeed, but we also have connections in Xuan Country, and that bastard surnamed Gu can't get away."
Lan Yaoxia's eyes flashed with hatred, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I want to go to Xuan Country myself and eliminate Gu Yannian completely."
Lan Yonggui quickly shook his head and rejected it, saying, "No need, just send someone."
Lan Wenda raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looked at Lan Yaoxia with a half-smile, and said softly: "Yaoxia, do you want to do it yourself?"
Lan Yaoxia's hatred for Gu Yannian seemed to be bursting out. He nodded fiercely and responded to his grandfather Lan Wenda: "Yeah."
Lan Wenda touched his chin, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Okay."
Then he looked at Lan Yonggui and told him, "Tell the people from Xuan Country to ensure Yao Xia's safety. If there is any problem, I will take action against them."
Lan Yonggui knew very well that he was horrified by what he heard from his father. He knew that he was far inferior to him in terms of connections and means.
After hearing that his father agreed to Haruka's going to Xuan Country, he stopped struggling and simply said, "Understood."
At this time, the sun was gradually setting and the sky was gradually darkening.
In an office in the casino, faint sunlight squeezed in through the window.
The faint light shone on Gu Yannian's face, adding a different color to his face that was swollen like a pig's head from being beaten.
