Tens of millions of Euros meant nothing to a large casino like them, but they could not allow them to leave with their winnings so easily.
If they just won a couple hundred thousand, the casino would not have taken it to heart.
Even though the other gamblers had followed Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting’s bets, they restrained themselves and did not win as much as them.
The people who knew what the casino was trying to do looked at Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning pitying. No matter how much they won, they were not walking away with a dime tonight.
However, Gu Ning did this just so that she could see their management.
“Sure!” acknowledged Gu Ning before heading upstairs with Davide.
The VIP zone consisted of private rooms. Davide led Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting to a VIP room and knocked on the door. He waited for a voice to grant them entry before opening the door and showing them in.
Gu Ning had already checked inside the room using her Jade Eyes. There was a huge gambling room inside with a large gambling table at the center. A man in his mid-thirties sat on the banker’s seat with six bodyguards behind him.
The man was called Renzo and was one of the managers of the casino.
Renzo’s expression became hostile the moment Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting entered the room. He did not expect them to be so good at gambling that they were capable of winning so much money from them.
After Davide led Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting into the private room, he left. His four bodyguards stayed behind standing behind Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting to secure them from the front and back.
It was clear they wanted to surround them, but Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were unafraid. However, they could not help feeling cautious since all of them were armed with guns.
Considering Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning’s abilities, they were not threatened by these guns. Based on Leng Shaoting’s current level of inner discipline, he could always summon his magical energy to block the bullets. However, Leng Shaoting did not want to use his powers unless he had to so as to prevent his skills from being exposed.
The moment he used them, his opponent had to die. Only the dead could be trusted with his secret. Nevertheless, it was wrong of them to kill people randomly.
Gu Ning looked at the man sitting across from them and reckoned he had no intention of gambling with them.
If she was not mistaken, these people did not dare to gamble with her since they knew she won every round and won big.
Gu Ning was confident no one else could get all the bets right unless they had x-ray vision like her, but she felt it was impossible.
Since they were incapable of defeating her at the gambling table, they decided not to gamble with her. Instead, they wanted to resort to brute force and make them cough out the winnings.
Despite this, Gu Ning pretended to be unaware of their intentions and asked, “Do you want to gamble with us?”
“No, I am not gambling with you,” said Renzo.
“Then why did you bring us upstairs? What do you want?” asked Gu Ning quizzically.
Renzo chuckled sinisterly as he looked at Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting with disdain. “I asked you up here so that I can make you return your winnings. Did you think you could walk out in one piece after winning so much money tonight?”
Sure enough, Gu Ning was spot on.
“This is a casino for people to gamble in, but they can’t leave with their winnings. What is the meaning of this?” said Gu Ning as she pretended to feel indignant.
“It wouldn’t have mattered if you walked away with a small amount of money, but not the huge sum you won,” said Renzo self-righteously.
“What if we won’t?” asked Gu Ning.
“Ha! It’s really not up to you. Do you think you can walk out of the place in one piece tonight?” said Renzo as he gestured. The ten bodyguards in the private room promptly pulled out their guns and pointed them at Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting.
In that instant, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning prepared to fight. However, they merely pointed the guns at them without firing, so Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting did not make any moves for now.
Although they were mafia and had engaged in their fair share of illegal activities, they did not kill anyone unless they had to. If Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting would obediently turn over the winnings, they had no problem letting them leave. However, they had no choice but to shoot them if they refused to do it.
“Fine. You can have it,” compromised Gu Ning as she pretended to look afraid.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting took out their chips and placed them on the gambling table.
How could they fight without setting their things aside? It was not like they could throw their chips right on the ground! Also, it helped to let down their enemies’ guard by pretending to give them the chips.
Gu Ning had already told Leng Shaoting softly before they went over. The moment they put down the chips, she would grab the man swiftly while Leng Shaoting took care of the bodyguards.
Once they placed the chips on the table, Gu Ning flipped in mid-air and appeared on the other end of the gambling table in the blink of an eye to land beside Renzo.
Gu Ning had already taken Renzo hostage by the time they caught on. Also, a gun suddenly appeared in her hand and she pointed it at Renzo’s head.
Gu Ning stepped backward after she got Renzo until she was two meters away from the bodyguards. She wanted to keep a safe distance so that they did not have the opportunity to point their guns at her.
Leng Shaoting went towards the four bodyguards behind him and attacked them when Gu Ning made a move. He swiftly took their guns and knocked them out completely. He also confiscated their phones to prevent them from calling for help.
Renzo was instantly terrified. All six bodyguards turned to train their guns on Gu Ning. Sadly, Renzo was right in front of Gu Ning, so all the guns were aiming at Renzo and no one dared to fire. The moment they fired, Renzo would be shot.
“Y-y-you…” Renzo was so petrified that he could only stammer nonstop. He was in complete awe of Gu Ning’s speed and terrified at being held hostage at gunpoint.
After Leng Shaoting took care of the four bodyguards, he walked over and stood behind Gu Ning.
Leng Shaoting could not attack the remaining six bodyguards rashly since he was worried they might shoot.
He was not worried about getting hurt. Instead, he did not want to cause a major commotion as it would send more men over. If more men came, they would have trouble forcing information out of Renzo.
“Let go of Renzo,” shouted one bodyguard at Gu Ning.
“Pftt! If you put down your guns, then I won’t shoot him,” sneered Gu Ning in ridicule as she threatened the bodyguards with Renzo’s life.
She was no fool. How could she release Renzo? Now that Renzo was in her hands, they ought to obey her if they wanted to save him.
