Chapter 521: Utterly Foolish Chen Dashao

“Catch him!”

Chen Zihao pointed at Xu Shaochen and ordered a few bodyguards.

The bodyguards exchanged glances and then surrounded Xu Shaochen.

“I apologize, sir.”

Chen Zihao strode up to Xu Shaochen, speaking each word clearly: “I won’t ask for the money you just won. Just kneel and bow your head once for every million.”

“Do you think you deserve it?” Xu Shaochen sneered coldly.

One of the bodyguards frowned and said to Xu Shaochen, “Sir, if you know what’s good for you, you should do what Young Master Chen says. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being rude.”

“How dare you! You have a lot of nerve!”

Just then, an angry shout rang out.

Ma Di descended quickly from the third-floor stairs, his face grim, fists clenched, veins bulging.

He had been going to great lengths to please Xu Shaochen, and now his own bodyguard dared to threaten him. It was simply outrageous.

“Young Master.”

Seeing Ma Di approaching, the bodyguards quickly stepped back two paces and bowed in greeting.

For a moment, everyone directed sympathetic gazes at Xu Shaochen.

They thought Ma Di’s earlier remark was addressed to Xu Shaochen. After all, the Ma Family and the Chen Family were on good terms, so naturally, Ma Di would stand on Chen Zihao’s side.

Therefore, if things went as expected, Xu Shaochen was about to face misfortune.

“It seems like tonight I am destined to be alone. I had thought you’d be the first man besides my husband.”

An Miaozhu leaned in close to Xu Shaochen, speaking with a tone that carried a mix of regret and schadenfreude.

You little harlot, wait until I deal with you later.

“Smack!”

Without another word, Ma Di raised his hand and delivered a sharp slap to the bodyguard’s face, his voice cold as he said, “Apologize to Mr. Xu immediately. If Mr. Xu does not forgive you, you’ll be jumping off the deck and swimming back to Macau!”

After the words left his mouth, Ma Di quickly turned to Xu Shaochen, his face full of anxiety, and said, “Young Master Xu, I deeply apologize. It’s my fault for not managing my people properly. Rest assured, this kind of thing will never happen again.”

Wow! In an instant, everyone opened their eyes wide, utterly dumbfounded by what they were witnessing.

What had they just seen? The second young master of the Ma Family, Ma Di, was bowing and scraping before Xu Shaochen.

Were their eyes playing tricks on them, or were they just seeing things?

“I told you, tonight won’t be lonely.” Xu Shaochen smiled as he spoke, casually resting a hand on An Miaozhu’s waist.

Her slender waist was like a steel blade, a lethal weapon to a man.

Ma Di noticed Xu Shaochen’s move and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. He knew very well whose wife An Miaozhu was.

But he said nothing more. A one-night stand was normal; it was just that the person Xu Shaochen was playing with had a rather special identity.

Ma Di quickly looked away and said to Chen Zihao, “Young Master Chen, apologize to Young Master Xu. I’ll help you beg for mercy, so he’ll go easy on you.”

He was genuinely thinking about Chen Zihao’s welfare. If Xu Shaochen held a grudge, the Chen Family could be wiped off the map of Macau.

“Ma Di, what do you mean by this!”

Chen Zihao was also stunned. He had thought Ma Di came to stand up for him, but unexpectedly, Ma Di asked him to apologize to Xu Shaochen, causing him to erupt in fury.

Ma Di frowned, his expression darkening a bit more. “Chen Zihao, what do you think I mean? I’m helping you.”

“What a joke! Your so-called help is making me bow my head and apologize? What does he even count for? Does he deserve it?”

Chen Zihao laughed angrily when he heard this, glaring disdainfully at Xu Shaochen.

The onlookers raised their eyebrows upon hearing this, looking at Chen Zihao with amusement.

Was this Chen Family’s eldest son really this foolish?

Even Ma Di was respectful in front of Xu Shaochen. Did he not realize that the Chen Family couldn’t possibly afford to provoke Xu Shaochen?

Ma Di, feeling somewhat irritated, secretly sent a text message to Chen Shan upstairs, asking him to come down and discipline his son. Otherwise, the Chen Family would indeed be in danger.

“Alright, Young Master Ma, since this Chen dashao is unwilling to lower his head, let’s just forget it. I’ll deal with it my own way.”

Xu Shaochen looked at Ma Di placidly and spoke in a gentle tone, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Chen Zihao would soon learn what he counted for.

Ma Di sighed helplessly. He could only hope that when Chen Shan came down, he’d be able to calm Xu Shaochen’s anger. Otherwise, the Chen Family would be in deep trouble.

“Threatening me? Let’s see who takes care of who then.”

Chen Zihao sneered disdainfully, his eyes filled with contempt and mockery as he looked at Xu Shaochen.

Xu Shaochen ignored him and focused his attention on the bodyguard instead. “I want to see how you offend people.”

“Thud!”

The bodyguard’s legs gave out, and he immediately fell to his knees, bawling and pleading with Xu Shaochen, “Young Master Xu, I was wrong, please forgive me. I’ll never dare again, I didn’t know who I was dealing with…”

Fear flooded his heart. He had just taken Chen Zihao’s side without hesitation, and now he had to pay the price for his choice.

“Forgive and forget? I’m sorry, I’m known for holding grudges.” Xu Shaochen smiled and looked at Ma Di, saying, “He’s your man, you deal with him yourself. No need to be so harsh as to make him swim back to Macau. Just give him a lesson.”

“Thank Young Master Xu quickly.” Ma Di heaved a sigh of relief and kicked the bodyguard.

He knew this was Xu Shaochen giving him face.

Otherwise, if anyone else dared to threaten Xu Shaochen, they would have already met with a grim fate.

“Thank you, Young Master Xu! Thank you, Young Master Xu!”

The bodyguard knelt on the ground, bowing repeatedly. The fact that he could keep his life was enough to make him cry tears of joy.

The people in the casino were all extremely curious about Xu Shaochen’s identity. Some from Hong Kong recognized him but stayed silent.

An Miaozhu looked up at Xu Shaochen’s confident profile, filled with curiosity about this man. Who was he?

Of course, curiosity only went so far. She had no intention of digging into Xu Shaochen’s identity.

It’s just a one-night stand. After tonight, when they disembark from the ship, both of them would be strangers. That would be the best way to avoid disrupting each other’s lives.

“Alright, alright, well played, Ma Di. Just for some kid who popped up out of nowhere, you have the guts to go against me!”

Chen Zihao had now also come to resent Ma Di. In his mind, Ma Di should have been helping him deal with Xu Shaochen.

When the onlookers heard this, they were left speechless. Clearly, Chen Zihao was beyond saving.

“Tap tap tap…”

The sound of brisk and powerful footsteps was heard as a middle-aged man walked down with an anxious expression.
