Upon hearing Lu Ting's command, Roach and Yuri, who were standing beside him, instinctively wanted to refuse.
They were well aware of the purpose behind the attempt to dismiss them.
In the coming moments, the people from the Casino of Cangsheng were likely to initiate a series of actions against the commander.
As Lu Ting's close aides, Roach and Yuri were there to ensure his safety. Regardless of the circumstances, they obviously didn't want to leave the commander alone in this den of vipers.
However, long before the plan began, Lu Ting had anticipated such a situation when he assigned Roach and Yuri as bodyguards. At that time, his orders to them were simply to obey and leave when commanded!
Therefore, shortly after Lu Ting's words fell, Roach and Yuri nodded in agreement and responded obediently, "Understood!"
Seeing that Lu Ting had indeed sent away his bodyguards, Xingyue's enigmatic smile intensified on her face. Immediately after, she spoke to Lu Ting, "Rest assured, Mr. Zhao. Even without someone watching her closely, she won't escape."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ting raised an eyebrow and looked at her, wondering why she would say such a thing.
Xingyue, upon meeting Lu Ting's gaze, smiled slightly without answering. Instead, she reached out towards Alya, who was kneeling on the ground.
As she lifted Alya's slightly curled white hair aside, Lu Ting clearly saw a small red light blinking under Alya's left ear.
Seeing this scene, Lu Ting instantly understood why this cunning woman would claim Alya couldn't escape.
Sure enough,
Immediately after, Lu Ting saw Xingyue, full of pride, saying, "She has an implanted tracking device developed by us. It will show her location no matter where she tries to flee."
Upon hearing her words, Lu Ting nodded and chuckled, "That's the best way. In case she manages to escape, it will save us a lot of trouble."
Soon after, Xingyue nodded slightly to the nearby staff, indicating they could pack up these items.
Quickly, the staff members of the casino skillfully packed up Lu Ting's two auction items. As for Alya, who had risen to her feet, she followed Roach and Yuri, leaving the reception room together.
Under the full escort of Roach and Yuri, Alya and the other two auction items would be taken to the hotel where Lu Ting was staying.
After everyone else had left, the entire reception room was left with only Lu Ting and Xingyue. It was at this moment that Xingyue spoke up, "Mr. Zhao, it's about time. Shall we go?"
Of course, she was referring to taking Lu Ting to that previously arranged, more interesting place!
Since everything had been arranged properly, Xingyue naturally didn't want to waste any more time and swiftly moved to take down Lu Ting, the "fat pig," at the fastest speed possible.
Upon hearing her words, Lu Ting immediately showed an interested expression on his face. Soon after, he stood up from the sofa, straightening the wrinkles on his suit while saying to Xingyue, "I've been looking forward to the place you mentioned for a long time. I hope you won't disappoint me."
Xingyue only smiled mysteriously in response, then turned and walked towards the exit of the reception room.
Lu Ting followed closely behind her, keeping pace with her steps.
Guided by Xingyue ahead, Lu Ting soon arrived at the end of this long, dimly lit corridor. Shortly after, they took an elevator up two floors.
When the elevator doors opened again, Lu Ting was greeted with a space similar in size to a classroom.
Inside this room, besides a bar counter and a rectangular gambling table, there was nothing else.
Seeing this, Lu Ting's face immediately showed a look of extreme disappointment. Soon after, he walked forward towards Xingyue, who was walking inside, and questioned her, "Is this what you meant by a more interesting place?"
How is this any different from the previous casino hall?
Even the size of this space is only one-tenth of the casino hall!
To be honest, Lu Ting really couldn't imagine what could be interesting here.
"Don't be impatient, Mr. Zhao."
At this point, Xingyue had already reached the bar counter, poured two glasses of liquor, and then turned to walk towards Lu Ting.
After handing one of the glasses to Lu Ting, she explained, "Surely Mr. Zhao understands that here in the gambling industry, the size of bets is strictly regulated."
"When you were playing in those casinos, you were probably limited to a certain amount per bet. So, when your bet reaches the maximum, even if you keep winning, after a while, it might not feel as thrilling or stimulating enough!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ting did not refute her words, which were indeed true.
During his time in Thailand, all the casinos he had visited had maximum bet regulations.
Of course, Lu Ting also knew that these were just facades shown to the managers of those casinos. In reality, the size of bets behind the scenes was unlimited.
However, such casinos were not open to the public casually. At least during Lu Ting's time in Thailland, he hadn't had the opportunity to encounter such a casino.
And from Xingyue's current words, could it be...
Is this place their Cangsheng Casino, an underground casino without bet limits?
Immediately, Lu Ting smiled and tentatively asked, "So, are you implying that here, there's no limit on the size of bets, unlike those places?"
"That's right!"
In response to Lu Ting's inquiry, Xingyue quickly replied. She turned to look at the casino area and continued, "Here, Mr. Zhao, you can bet as much as you want, without any limits on the amount!"
"Great!"
Upon hearing Xingyue's words, Lu Ting's face lit up with excitement. He eagerly walked over to Xingyue's side and asked, "What about the others? When do we start?"
At this point, Lu Ting already had some guesses about the plans of these fraudulent kidnapping groups.
Next, they probably intended to use the same old trick, just like dealing with Wang Tianyu, using gambling and high-stakes games to force him into massive gambling debts to their casino!
