Chapter 54 Set Fire to the Casino

The guards who just picked themselves up dared not approach since Xiao Bing was clutching at their boss’s throat so hard.

“Who… who are you…” Huang Daotian’s face turned purple because it was hard for him to breath. His girl crouched on the floor and screamed with her head in her hands.

Xiao Bing walked to the door while clutching Huang Daotian’s throat. Zhu Liya followed him while dragging her husband. Everyone watched them leave. Though Xiao Bing was just a human, they could not help having this feeling that the casino was completely in his control and it was him that decided their lives and deaths.

As Xiao Bing walked upstairs step by step, Huang Daotian was about to faint. Xiao Bing then threw him on the floor. His fellow men soon came around in a flurry and helped him stand. Xiao Bing gave him a calm glance, in which slight scorn was hidden. “Murder is illegal and your crime is not enough to sentence you to death. So I’ll just give you a lesson. Don’t make rules whenever you meet a person. You are far from qualified to do that. There are masters among the ordinary. Haven’t you heard of it?”

Suddenly Xiao Bing took out a lighter from his pocket and grinned viciously, “Now I’ll give a second lesson. You will never walk away from the law. Even though the government didn’t punish you, you will pay for what you did. There’s no need for a casino anymore…”

Xiao Bing threw the lighter away and a tablecloth soon started to burn. One of the staff wanted to put it out but then he heard Xiao Bing’s leisurely voice, “Just stand and watch. You will never see this much fun for the rest of your life. Anyone who wants to disturb this will burn as well.”

Then all of them could only watch the fire grow and do nothing about it. Huang Daotian almost passed out because of the anger. Seeming to be a little crazy, Huang Daotian shouted, “Even though you are strong enough to beat us all, you don’t want to mess with the true owner of this casino. Do you know who that is? It’s the North Heavenly Queen, also known as the Peony Fairy. She is the boss of the three sections of the northern part of Jiang City. She will kill you for burning the casino.”

“Really?” Xiao Bing pretended to be shocked. But then he shook his head, “I don’t know her!”

“Damn!” Huang Daotian inwardly cursed since he dared not to make a sound. He swore that he would tell this to the North Heavenly Queen and request her to kill him.

As the fire spread rapidly, the people in the casino all began to get worried because the fire was getting out of control. But they still dared not directly walk out when they saw Xiao Bing blocking their way out. Some of them started to curse.

Xiao Bing smiled and looked at Zhu Liya. “Let’s get out of here.”

Zhu Liya gave him a glance of surprise, then she nodded her head. Her husband looked back at the casino. Zhu Liya found pity in her husband’s eyes, which was just as what she had expected.

After they walked to the street, the people in the casino rushed out one by one because the fire was completely out of control. Xiao Bing called a taxi and got into the car with Zhu Liya and her husband. On the way back, Zhang Gui was smiling brazenly and asked her how much money she had. But she was silent and was giving him a hard time.

After arriving at Zhu Liya’s apartment, they all got off. Xiao Bing said, “Go home now. Mrs. Zhu, I should have asked him for the money back…”

“It’s okay,” said Zhu Liya in a low voice. “Man or woman, they all should keep their promises. I’ll return the 100 thousand to you in one year. Thank you for helping me today. I owe you a big favor.”

“Don’t think too much. I live not far from here. I’ll leave then,” said Xiao Bing, grinning.

“Okay.”

Then Zhu Liya walked towards her apartment and Xiao Bing headed towards the direction of the Su Family. But Zhang Gui stood still, looking hesitantly. Zhu Liya took out the key and opened the door. But she frowned when she looked back at her husband, “Zhang Gui, why are you just standing there?”

“It’s a man’s business. You stay out of it, woman. I’ll come back after I have talked to my buddy.”

Zhang Gui seemed to have decided something and rushed towards Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing was confused upon seeing Zhang Gui running after him. “Why don’t you go to your home? You have something to say to me?”

“Yes. Let’s find a place with fewer people. I need to talk to you about something.”

Xiao Bing intended to ignore him at first, but he was curious about what was in his head. So he followed him. A moment later they stopped at an unfrequented roadside and stood facing each other. Looking at Zhang Gui who seemed to be a little uneasy, Xiao Bing asked, “Go ahead then, what is it?”

“Well… Did you take a fancy to my wife?” said Zhang Gui, who was smiling and rubbing his hands.

It was a question Xiao Bing had never expected. Somehow he had this feeling like Zhang Gui found him cheating on his wife. But in fact, Xiao Bing did not want to have an affair with her at all. He just felt that he wanted to have sex whenever he saw her. After all, he had pictured them having sex. So he felt awkward when he was asked that by her husband.

Xiao Bing straightened his face immediately, “Nonsense. What are you talking about?”

“Just hear me out. It’s natural for a man to run after pretty women. And my wife is a very pretty woman. Although she’s married to me, she still gets lots of attention when walking on the streets. I know what they’re thinking when they see my wife. It’s normal for a young and competent man like you to have a crush on my beautiful wife.”

Frowning, Xiao Bing asked, “What do you mean?”

“I mean if you like my wife you can come to my house whenever you want. I’ll pretend that you are not there and you can just ignore me. I’m a grateful person. Just take it as your reward for saving my ass.”

There was a fire of anger rising in Xiao Bing’s heart. He sneered, “I suppose it’s not that easy, huh? What else?”

“Yeah… It comes with a small price. Since you gave my wife 100 thousand like it’s nothing, you must be very rich. If you can give me 100 thousand, she’s all yours for a whole year. But is she willing to be with you? It all depends on you… Now it takes thousands to have a college girl as a mistress for one month. At least my wife is way hotter than these girls, right?”

“Bang!” Xiao Bing punched him in the face. Zhang Gui was sent flying and landed several meters away because even a tough guy could not take one of his fists. Xiao Bing was gentle to him for the sake of Zhu Liya. Feeling dizzy, Zhang Gui stood up after he wiped off the blood from his nose.

Zhang Gui was about to swear, but he suddenly thought of Xiao Bing’s callous eyes and the way he beat up the guards in the casino. Huang Daotian was almost choked to death by this man. Then he swallowed the words on his lips.

As Xiao Bing walked up to him step by step, Zhang Gui quivered, “Please forgive me, big brother. I… I should have never said that. Just take that as a fart. You can do anything with her and I won’t ask you for money.”

Xiao Bing slapped him in the face and watched him spin for quite a while. Half of his face bloated instantly, but he seemed to be in awe of Xiao Bing this time.

Xiao Bing sneered and despised him, “The first hit was for your wife. There is nothing between me and your wife. I didn’t even know her before yesterday. And I did not give the money to your wife for nothing. I lent it to her. She’s the one working outside to support the family and you are doing nothing but gambling. Now you shamelessly want to sell her like a whore? Do you have a conscience at all?”

“And this slap was for me. I’m a man of righteousness. Even if I want to bang your wife, I will do it in a dignified way. I don’t need to make these dirty and secret deals with you. Do you think you can stop me if I want to fuck your wife?”

“I… I’m her husband,” said Zhang Gui in a quivering voice.

“You know you’re her husband?” sneered Xiao Bing. “I finally know why you dared to violate Huang Daotian’s mistress. Because men like you do not think. I have countless ways to make you disappear in this world and you can do nothing about it. Will she still be your wife when she is widowed by your disappearance?”

Zhang Gui could not help but shiver for a moment. He began to feel that this formidable man was able to do anything he said. He did not dare to make a sound.

Xiao Bing sneered again, “So you’d better put aside your dirty thoughts. The things between you and Zhu Liya are none of my business and I have no interest in knowing why she married a loser. But I can’t stand hearing your filth. Otherwise I can’t fight off the impulse to kill you. Even your very existence annoys me. Now… piss off!”

Zhang Gui instantly nodded and took a bow out of panic. But before he could go very far, he heard Xiao Bing bellowing, “I mean by rolling on the ground!”

Zhang Gui immediately threw himself down on the ground and rolled towards home.

“Damn… I don’t need your permission if I want to be with your wife. The world truly doesn’t lack dumbasses,” grumbled Xiao Bing. Then he walked home. He suddenly felt bad, which was mostly because of that Zhang Gui, who was not even as good as a dog. Xiao Bing truly felt pity for Zhu Liya.

In the Heavenly King Hall of the North Heavenly Queen, the Peony Fairy was staring at Huang Daotian who was prostrating before her. She asked, “Xiao Bing just burnt the casino like that?”

“Yes, he looked very angry… I suspect that he was thinking about whether he should kill me. He’s definitely a bloodthirsty man. Your… your highness, what should we do about him? Should we teach him a lesson?”

“Teach him a lesson? For what? That burnt casino? I think it was a good fire he started. Actually, I should choose the word ‘great’. Hahaha… What a protective lover he is…”
