Chapter 10

After ten rounds, Lin Feng was defeated without any suspense, leaving the gambling table with a cold sweat and bowing to Qin Yue: "My gambling skills are not on the same level as Mr. Qin Yue, I admit defeat!"

"Just a stroke of luck." Qin Yue modestly returned the bow.

"Qin Yue, I didn't expect your gambling skills to be so impressive. Lin Feng's skills are among the best in City C, yet he is no match for you at all." Zhang Jun was very shocked after watching the two matches. He originally thought that even if Qin Yue's skills were on par with Lin Feng, it would still be a fierce battle. However, the two were clearly not on the same level, and Lin Feng was completely overpowered. Zhang Jun's gaze towards Qin Yue became even more eager. In this way, Qin Yue's value was self-evident. In today's underground world, what do they rely on to make money? One is gambling, the other is prostitution. As for drugs, it might be possible in other countries, but in the current environment in China, drug trafficking means death. Truly developed organizations disdain such business. In this situation, a gambling expert is rare. With a skilled expert in the casino, they won't fear other casinos intentionally causing trouble, and they can even raid other casinos, giving them a significant advantage, even changing the underground landscape of City C.

"Ha ha," Qin Yue smiled faintly, his expression calm. An expert level and a professional level are certainly not on the same level.

"Since your gambling skills are so impressive, why don't you affiliate with our Starlight Gang's casino?" Zhang Jun looked at Qin Yue sincerely.

"Brother Zhang, you know I don't have any plans to join the underworld for now." Hearing Zhang Jun's invitation, Qin Yue frowned.

"Ha ha, it's just an affiliation, not joining our gang. You only need to help maintain order when someone comes to raid the casino. You don't need to come regularly! It's like being a guest advisor, and if you affiliate with our casino, you can always seek help from Starlight." Seeing Qin Yue frown, Zhang Jun quickly explained.

Hearing Zhang Jun's words, Qin Yue thought to himself. This affiliation seemed quite good, only needing to help when the casino was in trouble. With a large gang like Starlight, the frequency of raids should not be high, and it wouldn't affect him much. He could also call for help from Starlight at any time. Besides, Zhang Jun had been nice to him, so he might as well help him. He nodded and said, "Alright, but I might not have much time to come regularly."

"Ha ha, great, no problem. Lin Feng is still around regularly." Seeing Qin Yue agree, Zhang Jun was very happy. He then took out a bank card and handed it to Qin Yue: "Here, take it. This card has five million RMB, the password is six ones. I will deposit five million every year, this is your annual salary!"

"Do I really need that much? I'm just maintaining order." Qin Yue pushed the bank card away, looking at Zhang Jun.

"Ha ha, it seems you haven't realized your value yet. Our Starlight Gang's casino makes over a billion in profit each year, and there are many underground forces that envy us. With you as our expert, many problems can be solved. The five million a year is just your affiliation fee. There will also be dividends. If you're willing to formally join our Starlight, I wouldn't hesitate to offer you fifty million a year." Zhang Jun said with a smile.

"That's right, Mr. Qin. I can earn tens of millions each year, and with your gambling skills, five million for an affiliation fee is not much." Lin Feng added.

Hearing this, Qin Yue didn't continue to refuse. He indeed needed a lot of money to buy green jade. He nodded and took the bank card.

"Ha ha, let's go celebrate." Seeing Qin Yue take the bank card, Zhang Jun was very happy. With a few million in hand, the green jade was within reach, and Qin Yue was also very happy, so he nodded in agreement. "Ha ha, have fun!" Lin Feng, as the casino director, still had to pay attention to the casino's situation, so he couldn't join them in the celebration. He smiled and said, "Alright, you go ahead!"

The two left the room, and Zhang Jun led Qin Yue into the elevator, pressing the button for the basement level. Soon, the elevator door opened, and a noisy and bustling sound came through.

"This is our Starlight entertainment venue, one of the best in City C. As long as you have money, you can enjoy any service here." Zhang Jun introduced, and the two walked in.

The venue had a European-style decoration, classical and grand. The diverse yet unified classical patterns on the ceiling connected the various rooms. The large marble slabs, the combination of material color blocks and geometric patterns, the intricate carvings, inlays, and perforations, along with the translucent and three-dimensional mirror techniques, created a rich and multi-layered visual effect on the walls. The inlaid granite floor, the defining carpets, the soft and flowing furniture, the geometric columns, and the classical lamps combined the different symbols and emblems of Eastern and Western civilizations, making each private room a vibrant and colorful space. The venue was divided into three levels, with the ground floor being the performance hall, dance floor, and slow dance bar.

At this moment, it was very lively inside, with flashing lights, clinking glasses, and many women in sexy outfits walking around, creating a scene of opulence and debauchery.

"Brother Zhang, what brings you here?" A woman in her thirties smiled and approached, affectionately holding Zhang Jun's arm and rubbing her large chest against it. Qin Yue carefully observed the woman. Although she was currently clinging to Zhang Jun's arm with a seductive expression, her eyes revealed a sharp and capable nature. She was lightly made up, and her large chest almost burst out of her clothes, making her appear mature and alluring, giving the first impression of wanting to take her to bed and ravage her.

"This is Sun Xinyi, the general manager of this club!" Zhang Jun calmly pulled his arm out of the woman's embrace and pointed to Qin Yue with a smile, "This is Qin Yue, a friend of mine!"

"Hello! Mr. Qin Yue, is this your first time here?" Sun Xinyi extended her white, delicate hand to Qin Yue politely.

"Yes!" Qin Yue shook hands with Sun Xinyi lightly. Her hand was cool and smooth, like warm jade, making him want to hold it longer.

"Prepare a private room for us. Today, I want to have a good time with Qin Yue." Zhang Jun said to Sun Xinyi casually.

"Sure, hehe, I'll arrange it right away. Follow me!" She smiled at Qin Yue seductively.

Soon, Sun Xinyi led the two to a private room. "Please sit, I'll call the girls over." She said and left.

"How is it, isn't this place nice?" Zhang Jun asked when they were alone in the private room.

"It's quite nice."

"Ha ha, the girls here are even better. You'll see in a moment. What type do you like? Mature women, young girls..." Zhang Jun laughed.

"Um, cough, cough... Let's not talk about that. What is your position in the Starlight Gang, Brother Zhang?" Qin Yue awkwardly coughed and changed the subject.

"Ha ha, the leader of the Starlight Gang is my godfather. Do you understand now?" Zhang Jun smiled faintly.

"Um... I see. I thought you were just a high-ranking member of the Starlight Gang, but I didn't expect you to be the 'crown prince' of the Starlight Gang."

"Surprised, aren't you?" Zhang Jun said.

"Yes, a bit." Qin Yue nodded.

"I'm an orphan, abandoned at birth and raised by a scavenger. When I was ten, the old man died of illness, and I started wandering alone. At fifteen, I was adopted by my godfather and have been in the underworld ever since." Zhang Jun recalled calmly.

"An orphan? I'm also an orphan, raised in an orphanage." Hearing Zhang Jun's words, Qin Yue felt a sense of shared fate.

"Oh? You're also an orphan? Ha ha, it seems we have quite a connection." Zhang Jun laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Yes."

After that, neither of them spoke, sitting quietly on the sofa, and the scene became somewhat quiet.

"Click"

At this moment, the door to the private room opened, and Sun Xinyi led a group of girls in.
