Chapter 454: Chapter 454 Xue An’s Fury (First Update)
 

Las Vegas.

Jiang Xian and Louis, among others, got out of the car in front of the Pyramid Casino.

Looking up at the imposing palace, Louis commented with some surprise, “So this Wu Yu actually works here?”

Jiang Xian chuckled, “Who knows? Anyway, she called us to come here, saying she’s prepared to settle all the debts!”

Louis patted Jiang Xian’s shoulder and gave a thumbs-up, “Man, you’re a genius, selling out your own girlfriend just like that!”

Jiang Xian laughed, “Whose fault is it for signing the contract at the time? Blame me, huh?”

Indeed, as Louis had said, Jiang Xian and Wu Yu had once been a couple and came to M Country together from Treasure Island.

But later, Jiang Xian, due to his lazy ways, racked up a huge debt with Louis and others.

Unable to repay, Jiang Xian tricked Wu Yu into signing a contract, transferring all the debts to her.

At the time, Louis and the others planned to make Wu Yu work in the red-light district. When Wu Yu realized what was happening, she firmly refused. In the end, they reached an agreement that Wu Yu would work to repay the debt.

However, with the speed at which Wu Yu earned money, it was just enough to cover the interest on the debt.

Unexpectedly, they received a call from Wu Yu yesterday, telling them to come to Las Vegas to settle all the remaining debts.

The group entered the casino, and Jiang Xian grabbed a security guard to ask, “Excuse me, where is Wu Yu?”

The guard looked Jiang Xian up and down with a strange gaze before nodding, “Follow me, please!”

The security guard led Jiang Xian and the others to the office of the manager on the third floor.

Louis leaned in and whispered, “Looks like your ex-girlfriend must have hooked up with some rich guy, probably working as a secretary for the casino manager!”

Jiang Xian’s face also looked somewhat unnatural.

Back when they were a couple, Wu Yu had stubbornly refused to let Jiang Xian touch her, the most they did was hold hands.

And now, have you actually sunk so low as to be someone else’s lover?

Resentment filled Jiang Xian’s heart.

At that moment, the office door opened.

Jiang Xian and Louis, among others, walked in.

To their surprise, Wu Yu was sitting behind the desk, dressed in professional attire, her face lightly made up, exuding a mix of charming allure and an air of a strong woman.

Jiang Xian couldn’t help but feel a pang of attraction and quickly stepped forward, smiling, “Yu’er.”

Wu Yu looked up at him, then lowered her gaze, “You’ve arrived?”

“Yes! Yu’er, it’s been a while, how have you been?”

Wu Yu looked at Jiang Xian, who feigned a sad expression, and a mocking smile appeared on her lips, “Whether I’ve been well or not, don’t you know?”

Jiang Xian sighed, “Yu’er, actually…”

Wu Yu waved her hand and pulled out a small bag from the drawer, throwing it on the desk, “No need to talk, this is the money I owe you!”

Louis hurried forward, opened the small bag, and saw that it was filled with crisp hundred-dollar bills.

He counted the money carefully, showing a satisfied smile, then gave Wu Yu a thumbs-up.

“Miss Wu surely is a trustworthy person. You said you would repay the debt with interest, and indeed, not a cent less!”

As he spoke, Louis took out the signed agreement from his pocket and placed it on the table.

“Now, we’re even with the money!”

Wu Yu remained unfazed.

Louis turned to leave.

Wu Yu said indifferently, “Hold on!”

Louis stopped in his tracks, still smiling, “Does Miss Wu have anything else to say?”

“Just like that, you’re leaving?”

“Hmm? What else?” Louis asked, puzzled.

“I’ve settled my debt to you! What about what you owe me?” Wu Yu said calmly.

“Owe you?” Louis and Jiang Xian asked in unison.

Wu Yu nodded, stood up, and stared intently at Jiang Xian.

“Jiang Xian, when we first came to study in M Country together, I entrusted all my affection to you, believing that we would spend our lives together!”

“But to my dismay, you used sweet words to deceive me into signing the contract, letting me shoulder a mountain of debt for you! I just want to ask you one question, have you lost your conscience?”

Although Wu Yu’s tone was calm, the underlying rage and bitterness still resonated.

Jiang Xian turned pale, stuttering somewhat, “At that time, I had no choice, and it was only a contract, I didn’t actually harm you…”

“Just a contract?” Wu Yu’s complexion grew paler as she snorted coldly, “When I signed that contract, Louis and the others threatened to force me to sell myself. I’d rather die than comply. They nearly raped me, and you just hid downstairs. Did you really think I didn’t know about that?”

Jiang Xian lowered his head.

Seeing the situation going south, Louis forced a smile and said, “This seems to be a lovers’ spat, nothing to do with me, so I’ll be leaving first!”

As he finished speaking, he tried to leave.

Right at that moment, the office door opened, and the security guards streamed in, filling the room to the brim, their eyes fixed menacingly on Louis and his companions.

Leading these security guards was a petite girl with a sullen expression on her face.

It was none other than Cai Lalan.

Cai Lalan sneered and said, “Thinking of leaving? Do you really think you can get away?”

Her words turned Louis and his men pale.

Jiang Xian raised his head and called out with feigned affection, “Yu’er…”

Before he could finish, Cai Lalan could no longer suppress the rage in her heart.

Having heard Wu Yu’s narrative, she was close to exploding with anger.

There were actually such scumbags in the world.

So when she saw Jiang Xian, she was so infuriated that she charged at him and, with a Tai Chi cannon punch, sent him flying off the ground and tumbling away for quite a distance.

The blow almost killed Jiang Xian. He struggled through the pain to get up, glaring at Wu Yu with venomous hatred.

“Wu Yu, don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you have more people. You, you bitch, when we were lovers, you wouldn’t let me touch you. And now what? Aren’t you still someone else’s lover?”

Cai Lalan was furious and about to take action.

Wu Yu walked out from behind the office desk with an icy demeanour, approached Jiang Xian, looked down at him, and then suddenly raised her hand, delivering a loud slap across his face.

Jiang Xian’s nose bled from the slap as he stood there, looking at Wu Yu in disbelief, seemingly unable to comprehend that Wu Yu dared to hit him.

Seeing his expression, Wu Yu’s face showed disgust as she coldly said, “A lover? Hah, let me tell you, I am now the manager of this casino!”

Jiang Xian was utterly shocked. “How can this… how is this possible!”

With a signal from Cai Lalan, all the security guards bowed in unison, “Manager Wu!”

This scene made Jiang Xian and Louis shiver uncontrollably.

Jiang Xian’s eyes were filled with utter despair.

Wu Yu gave him a cold glance and turned to leave.

As she passed by Cai Lalan, she said coldly, “Leave him breathing!”

Cai Lalan chuckled, “Don’t worry! Leave it to me! I’ll make sure these bastards beg for life and death!”

Wu Yu walked out of the office, and the moment she closed the door, Jiang Xian’s screams and pleas could be heard from inside.

“Yu’er… I know I was wrong… please… ah, stop hitting me!”

Wu Yu leaned against the wall, her eyes gradually reddening until she couldn’t help but cry out loud.

The humiliation she had endured for over a year was finally being released at this moment.

After crying for a while, Wu Yu dried her tears, took out a compact mirror, carefully touched up her makeup, and then headed to the room on the fourth floor where the Xue family was staying.

She knocked gently on the door, and Xue An’s voice came through, “Come in! The door isn’t locked!”

Wu Yu entered respectfully, her head bowed.

She saw Xue An was playing games with An Yan in the living room.

Upon seeing Wu Yu walk in, Xue An looked up and smiled.

“The matter’s been dealt with!”

Wu Yu nodded, “Yes!”

“That’s good! Probably, in a couple of days, people from back home will arrive to help you manage the casino!”

“Mr. Xue, thank you so much!” Wu Yu said with a trembling voice, beginning to kneel.

Xue An waved his hand, and a gentle force held Wu Yu up, then he said indifferently, “Don’t mention it. I made you the manager because I think you have a good head on your shoulders and because when your compatriot was in trouble, you dared to step forward. It’s not out of pity for you, you understand?”

“Yes!”

Just then, the character Xue An was controlling was once again defeated by An Yan.

An Yan cheered and leaped up, “Silly husband, you lost again!”

Xue An chuckled, about to say something.

Suddenly, his expression changed drastically. He stood up abruptly, his gaze locked onto something outside the window.

An Yan was taken aback, “Husband, what’s wrong?”

Xue An’s voice was as cold as ice, his eyes filled with killing intent, “It’s An Qing! She’s in trouble!”
