Chapter 629: Unexpected Outcome

“By the way, come gamble with me for a bit.” Ye Mo pulled Shen Qianqian into the casino.

Shen Qianqian hadn’t expected Ye Mo to have such a hobby. To be honest, she hated gamblers. No matter how wealthy, gamblers could lose it all. But since Ye Mo wanted to gamble, she followed.

Ye Mo was more careful after the camera disappeared. He wouldn’t be as obvious around the gamblers as he had been with Shen Qianqian. He didn’t want to startle them and lose the Five Element Rock. Once noticed, it could happen again. He couldn’t keep his spirit sense constantly spread, but he could notice if someone left.

Ye Mo had pulled Shen Qianqian along to borrow her card. He hadn’t gotten a new account after giving his card to Sister Yan.

“How much money do you have on your card?” Ye Mo asked Shen Qianqian.

Hearing this, Shen Qianqian confirmed Ye Mo had no money, but she still owed him for the pill. She would give him all her money if needed. “I have 50 million left,” she said.

“Then go buy five 10-million chips.” The smallest chip was one thousand USD; the highest, 10 million.

If Ye Mo lost five times, he’d lose everything.

Shen Qianqian wanted to remind Ye Mo, but considering the money his, she couldn’t control him.

Although many people were at the casino, few sat at the VIP tables. Most sat outside and didn’t bet large amounts.

Ye Mo saw the camera man at the innermost VIP table; he seemed to be the croupier. Unlike other casinos, you only needed to pay to play here; customers could be croupiers. Ye Mo wanted to contact the man, so he had to bet with him first. After winning, he would talk.

Once again, Ye Mo searched the ship carefully with his spirit sense but found nothing.

Right when Shen Qianqian returned with five chips, she saw Ye Mo frown before he could take them. “What’s wrong?” Shen Qianqian asked.

Ye Mo saw the man he wanted to approach leaving his seat for the nearby bar.

Ye Mo coughed. “You go bet at the innermost table; I’m going to the bathroom.”

Shen Qianqian looked at Ye Mo speechlessly. She couldn’t follow him to the bathroom, could she?

Although she went to the table, Shen Qianqian kept her eyes on Ye Mo and noticed he wasn’t going to the bathroom. He went to the bar.

That man ordered a glass of red wine and chatted with the waitress.

Soon, Ye Mo noticed the man had glanced twice at a woman in a corner. The girl looked academic, with a cup of juice in front of her. She looked shy and well-educated. Her ample bosom was quite noticeable.

‘So he came to chat up girls?’ Ye Mo thought, and he approached the girl without hesitation, keeping his spirit sense on the man. The man was dazed but quickly returned to normal, casually chatting with the waitress. But Ye Mo knew he’d looked at him more than once.

The girl saw Ye Mo and sat down. Dazed, she said softly, “Sir—”

Ye Mo smiled. “Beautiful lady, thank you for calling me ‘sir’—although I look a bit rough, I am a gentle man. I saw you sitting alone, so I came to drink with you. You wouldn’t mind, right?”

“Why would I? Please have a seat.” The girl blushed, seemingly at a loss for where to place her hands, but a small smile played on her face.

Ye Mo chuckled. This girl was interesting—she blushed talking to strangers. Ye Mo wanted the man at the bar to come over and save the girl. Then he could confront the man without his friends suspecting him.

Thus, Ye Mo leaned closer and grabbed her hand. “Let me introduce myself. My name is Mo Ying. What’s yours?”

“Ah!” The girl seemed startled and tried to pull away, but Ye Mo didn’t let go. He kept his spirit sense on the man at the bar.

But the man didn’t come.

Had he misjudged something? Ye Mo let go of the girl’s hand and sat down, disappointed.

Seeing this, the girl quickly said, “Euhm, my name is Sally. Sorry, but I don’t really like doing that with strangers…”

Ye Mo smiled and waved his hand. “No problem. I just like being straightforward. If there’s a girl I like, I will chase after her, and unless—”

Ye Mo wanted to say ‘I won’t leave unless I get the girl,’ but paused. Something felt wrong. This girl was already blushing after one sentence; she seemed very conservative.

But when he’d held her hand, she’d only blushed; no other signs. Her pulse and heartbeat should’ve risen, but they hadn’t.

This girl was problematic—her blushing was fake.

Thinking this, Ye Mo sat down and grabbed her hand again, smiling. “So, unless I get the girl, I won’t stop.”

At the same time, Ye Mo scanned the girl’s body. He usually didn’t, but now it was necessary.

Ye Mo scanned her body, stopping above the waist; he didn’t need to go further. He had found the box—it was in her bra!

Ye Mo wanted to laugh. He’d finally found it. No wonder the man kept looking; they were conspirators. He wondered if that short, black man was with them, too.

Ye Mo’s spirit sense noticed something else: the girl also had a Black Sun Badge in her bra, belonging to the Black Sun Empire.

So it was an old enemy! Ye Mo sneered. Seeing the girl silently pull her hand away, he scanned the man, who also had a Black Sun Empire badge. Furthermore, Ye Mo noticed small black dots in each of their ears—communication devices.

“Don’t do this! I’m leaving.” The girl pulled away her hand and tried to leave.

How could Ye Mo let her go? He could’ve taken the box, but he wanted to put a spirit sense mark on it to find the Black Sun Empire’s HQ.

“Sorry, I just like you too much. If you don’t mind, give me the honor of one hug, and I will leave immediately,” Ye Mo said seriously.

Ye Mo was sure she wouldn’t refuse.
