He clearly had other intentions but Luo Zheng remained calm and answered, “I’ll definitely stay loyal and not let Master Scarface down!”
She then watched as the chauffeur shoved Xi Qianqian back into the room.
“Luo Zheng… you b*itch… you actually won’t save me …”
Xi Qianqian fell onto the ground and could only shriek because the drugs made her too feeble to move.
Luo Zheng folded her arms and gibed, “Look at you, don’t you seem like a dog?”
“You… ”
Feeling extremely humiliated, Xi Qianqian glowered at Luo Zheng, too furious for words.
At the next instant, the driver was just about to close the door and bring Luo Zheng to Scarface.
Bang!
At this moment, the lights lit up before ceasing and the entire gambling den sunk into pitch darkness.
“What’s going on? Why is there a sudden power outage …”
Due to the fact that the operations were still running, everyone broke into an uproar and began discussing in a chaotic manner.
At this moment, Luo Zheng heard the driver moan before falling onto the ground.
“Miss Luo, stick to the wall and go straight ahead! Mr. Bo is waiting for you at the end… ” said a man who was clearly one of Bo Hancheng’s men.
“Okay, be careful.”
Luo Zheng began walking along the wall.
However, as soon as she took a few steps forward, she was slammed forcefully from the back. “B*tch, you actually didn’t save me and you’re thinking about leaving yourself! I’ll pull you along to die with me…”
It was Xi Qianqian who had crawled up and heard their conversation because the door was left ajar. She scurried towards Luo Zheng amidst the chaos.
Luo Zheng frowned and felt annoyed. She really is such a pest!
Xi Qianqian had already broken a jar and was yelling, “There is an undercover… there is a spy… they are going to run away… come quickly …”
The respondent had just returned to the crowd after he told Luo Zheng to leave.
He did not expect there to be such a complication.
He was just about to step forth and deal with Xi Qianqian.
Bang!
The lights were on again and the power was restored.
Luo Zheng was astonished and she could not figure out what was going on. Wasn’t there supposed to be five minutes of darkness?
The power supply of the gambling den should have been disrupted and even if there is a backup power supply, it takes about five minutes to turn on… I could have used those five minutes to escape. How can the power be restored after only two minutes?
Unless, Scarface has long prepared his subordinates to wait by the main switch!
Scarface hollered, “Escape? Who’s trying to escape!?!”
Luo Zheng’s heart almost jumped out of her chest and she looked in the direction of the voice to see that Scarface was walking towards her with a cigar in his mouth.
Behind him were many of his men who were armed with guns and were commanding everyone to stand up and not wander about!
This scene scared everyone and caused them to turn pale.
“I just received some news saying that there had been spies here! Rest assured, as a reasonable person, I’ll promise everyone will be fine as long as you cooperate…”
Scarface said with a smile. It was both a comfort and a threat.
The crowd listened, their faces turned pale and they couldn’t quieten down.
Seeing this, Scarface whipped out a gun and shot a bullet upwards.
Pak~
The sound of the gunshot filled the air and everyone fell silent while shivering.
Scarface was finally satisfied. He fiddled with the gun and turned to look at Luo Zheng. “Who was trying to escape? Zheng… was it you?”
Luo Zheng held her breath and was thinking about how she should answer appropriately.
Xi Qianqian took a look and interjected, “It’s her! She knocked someone out and wanted to run away, and her accomplice responded too… ”
