He carefully studied the fortune slip. Although the dragon in it was symbolic, he subconsciously thought about it more deeply because it involved the dragon race.
I don't know if the dragon in this fortune slip refers to the White King or to himself.
"What's wrong? Is the fortune reading bad?" Su Xiaoqiang asked, seeing him deep in thought.
"Great, of course! You're so lucky! As expected of my wife, you're really lucky!" Gu Ran hugged Su Xiaoqiang's neck, kissed her cheek hard, and laughed, "You're such a lucky charm for your husband!"
Su Xiaoqiang was amused by his words, and happily wrinkled her nose, put her hands on her hips and laughed: "Then you'll have to treat me better from now on."
"Yes, yes, I will be good to you for the rest of my life."
Su Xiaoqiang felt a sweet warmth in her heart after not hearing his sweet words for so long, and nestled shyly in his arms.
Gu Ran took her right hand, ready to accompany her for another stroll.
Her little hands were still as soft and smooth as ever, feeling delicate and boneless when pinched, but I noticed that her index finger had developed a fine callus.
He held her small hand in front of him and examined it closely, rubbing the calluses around her fingertips. He turned to look at her earnestly and asked, "Have you been missing me this much lately?"
Su Xiaoqiang was stunned. The calluses on her hands were from practicing shooting in the basement these past two days, and she didn't understand Gu Ran's meaning for a moment.
But seeing his wicked grin, Su Xiaoqiang's no-longer-naive mind started to think about things in a suggestive way, and she finally realized that he was being reckless again, and that the wheels of his car had almost run over her face.
"You're being indecent again!" Su Xiaoqiang chuckled, pinching his nose and taking off his sunglasses. "Why are you wearing sunglasses on such a cloudy day!"
"Just trying to look cool," Gu Ran said with a smile.
Su Xiaoqiang said, "Aren't you going to meet Aunt Zhang? You've spent enough time with me..."
"Not enough, of course not enough, it was only for a short while!" Gu Ran hugged her arm, leaned on her shoulder, and rubbed against her shoulder affectionately, "I want to stay with you for a lifetime."
Su Xiaoqiang couldn't stop smiling. How could he be so good at coaxing people!
"Actually, I went home to see my mom early this morning before coming out," Gu Ran said.
He actually arrived at Yokohama Chinatown early in the morning and met with Zhang Qiong and Liu Yue. Su Xiaoqiang had just left the house and missed him.
Liu Yue had actually sent people to protect Su Xiaoqiang. When the two blond-haired punks harassed Su Xiaoqiang, the bodyguards were about to step forward, but Gu Ran stopped them and took over the bodyguard duties.
At this moment, Su Xiaoqiang was sitting on a bench, while Gu Ran was quietly resting her head on her soft thighs, gazing at the somewhat gloomy sky.
It's so big!
In Gu Ran's field of vision, he could only see half of the sky, as two towering mountain peaks blocked his view.
Pedestrians came and went, and many men glanced over. When they saw Su Xiaoqiang's charming and gentle face, they were all amazed. When they saw Gu Ran resting on her lap, they were filled with envy.
But the handsome man and beautiful woman are indeed a good match.
Su Xiaoqiang's soft palm gently stroked his cheek, her hand tracing his jawline, and then pinched his nose.
However, when I touched his eyes, I suddenly noticed what looked like a hard lump in his eye socket.
"They are contact lenses," Gu Ran explained.
"Don't you not need to be nearsighted?" Su Xiaoqiang asked.
Gu Ran lied and said, "It seems like I have some pseudomyopia, which will get better after a while, but I'm wearing it now so as not to affect my work."
Su Xiaoqiang ruffled his hair: "I really didn't expect we would meet in Japan."
"Well, I'm sorry, you won't be able to return to China for the time being," Gu Ran said.
Su Xiaoqiang frowned slightly: "It's not your fault, why are you apologizing? If you keep taking everything on yourself and apologizing, I'm going to get angry!"
"I'm sorry!"
"You apologized!"
"I'm apologizing for the sake of my previous apology," Gu Ran asked. "Did you call Su's parents to let them know you're safe?"
“I called and told them I was skipping class to go to Japan for half a month, and that you and Aunt Zhang would be there too. They weren’t too worried. My dad just quietly transferred 300,000 yuan into my account and said to ask if it wasn’t enough.”
“Dad’s love is so simple and unpretentious…” Gu Ran said with a smile.
“You gave me a lot of money too!” Su Xiaoqiang said, rubbing his chin.
"So, are you going to call me Dad?"
"Do all men like women to call them 'Dad'?"
"Well, it depends on what it is..."
"You're being indecent again!" Su Xiaoqiang gently tapped his head.
"I just love being silly with you." Gu Ran reached out and grabbed both of her hands, kneading the fleshy parts of her palms like playing with a cat's paws. Occasionally, he would tickle her palms. Su Xiaoqiang was ticklish, so she would always subconsciously pull her hands away.
"Where else do you want to go? I'm free today... I have some errands to run tomorrow," Gu Ran said.
“I don’t want to go, let’s just stay here.” Su Xiaoqiang leaned back in the recliner, holding his hand, and leisurely looked at the sky.
Actually, when two people are together, they don't necessarily have to do anything. Just being there for each other and quietly feeling each other's presence is good enough.
“Then why don’t you come with me… to that place…” Gu Ran pointed to a sign not far away, which read in Chinese characters: Yokohama Grand Hotel.
Su Xiaoqiang was both amused and exasperated. She first pinched his cheek hard before standing up shyly.
"Let's go."
Gu Ran quickly followed along.
*……*……*
That day, Gu Ran and Su Xiaoqiang went straight to a hotel and didn't go home that night.
The young couple, having been apart for so long, were incredibly affectionate and stayed together until noon when they checked out.
After lunch, Gu Ran took Su Xiaoqiang back to Chinatown. When he arrived at her destination, Zhang Qiong was waiting with a smile.
Su Xiaoqiang was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, but her long legs were now bare, her snow-white and slender legs exposed to the air, with perfect and beautiful lines.
As for the stockings I wore yesterday, someone tore them.
Bastard!
Since Su Xiaoqiang didn't return home all night, Tang Shishi naturally teased her a bit. Then, she, Zhou Xinqing, and Gu Ran greeted each other.
Gu Ran exchanged a few pleasantries with them.
Zhang Qiong asked, "I heard you're going to work again."
"Okay, to Osaka." Gu Ran set the route from Yokohama to Osaka in the car's navigation system.
"Do you need any help?" Zhang Qiong asked.
"No need, I'll just go... to earn some extra money." Gu Ran smiled, "to earn you some pocket money."
Zhang Qiong nodded, roughly understanding what Gu Ran was going to do. Judging from his smug look, he was probably going to make money, but she didn't know his plan.
"Is there any danger?" Zhang Qiong asked.
"of course not."
"Then shall I go with you?"
"Then forget it. I like to be free when I'm working, I don't like having my mom controlling me..."
"You brat!" Zhang Qiong reached out and pinched Gu Ran's ear, pulling it for a while before letting go. "Anyway, be careful, don't risk your life for money."
"Don't worry, it's perfectly safe!" Gu Ran smiled and waved to Su Xiaoqiang. "I'm off now, see you tomorrow!"
With a tap of the accelerator, the white Civic with the red badge quietly drove away.
……
On the outskirts of Osaka Prefecture, there is a mountain, and on the mountain, there is a large house.
Judging from the name of the house, you can tell that the things this house does are shady.
This large house is called the Paradise House.
On the surface, this place is a casino.
Secretly, this place is a jack-of-all-trades shop.
It's not the proper Yorozuya from Gintama, but the Yorozuya that does all sorts of bad things.
In the Paradise Hall, as long as you have enough gambling funds and put those funds into the Paradise Hall as a wish fund, you can realize your wish through the Paradise Hall.
For example, if you want to run for a seat in the legislature, or you want to sleep with the secretary of a legislator, or you want to be the president of your company... whether your wish is legitimate or illegitimate, Gyokuryoku will help you achieve it.
As long as you pay a high enough price.
The Pleasure House only opened in the last two months, but its background in the underworld is astonishingly powerful. Moreover, this place is like a poppy field, a deadly temptation for those blinded by greed.
Those who wanted to fulfill their 'wishes' came to this mountain with boxes and boxes of cash, entered the Paradise Hall, and began their reckless gambling.
There's no such thing as "gambling for fun." This place is a bottomless pit of gambling, because only gamblers who win big can make a wish to the manager of the Pleasure House.
The gambling equipment here is complete, including slot machines, pachinko machines, and other gambling tables such as baccarat and dice. Whatever game you want to play, there's bound to be one that suits you.
If the lofty and powerful Snake Clan represents the order of the underworld, then the Paradise House represents chaos.
Because the people in the Paradise Hall are all 'ghosts'.
The Paradise Hall is a place for demons.
This is also the headquarters of the Osaka Prefecture Demon Clan. Osaka Prefecture is located in the west of Japan and is one of the country's major cities. The gangs here basically support the Demon Clan, and the local councilors have also been bribed by Gokurakukan.
Chapter 410 Respecting Others' Fates, Letting Go of the Helping Complex
Elysium is not only a casino, but also a cross-border money laundering operation. With the casino's operations, billions of dollars in cash flow through Elysium every day.
It can be said that the Paradise Hall is also the heart of the Demon Clan and their source of funding.
When Gu Ran arrived outside the Paradise Pavilion, he saw twelve oil tankers, with dozens of tons of fuel pouring down from the mountain, soaking every part of the Paradise Pavilion.
Gu Ran used the ninjutsu technique, Camouflage Concealment, to hide and observe from the side.
A day earlier, the Snake Clan officially declared war on the Demon Clan, and the two gangs began a fierce battle.
The Snake Clan seemed to have been preparing for a long time, and when they made their move, it was with the force of thunder, aiming to kill the Demon Clan with one blow.
The Demons were retreating in defeat, and their headquarters in Osaka Prefecture was now surrounded. Their lives were now in the hands of one man.
This man is now sitting on the mountaintop.
