Chapter 378 You’ve Won More Than Enough

• Henrik Jansson watched A-Qing for a moment, then let out a soft sigh. “Fine. I’ll stay with you a bit longer.” He was disappointed that A-Qing couldn’t resist the temptation. But he was the one who brought her out, so there was no way he’d hand her over to Tao Yong just like that. Who knew—if he stepped out the door, would Tao Yong snatch A-Qing the next second?
• Tao Yong sneered. “That’s more like it. Come on, A-Qing, let’s keep going.” His eyes got bold, roaming like she was already stripped bare and standing in front of him. A-Qing didn’t notice. She turned to Henrik Jansson with an apologetic smile. “I—I’m sorry.” Henrik waved it off without a word. In his head, he was already turning over how to fix this mess.
• They sat there for hours. Henrik watched as A-Qing, led by Tao Yong, kept hitting streak after streak. She’d won over a hundred grand already. Her young, innocent face bloomed like a flower. That kind of money was more than enough to cover college, but she had no intention of stopping. People are greedy. Once that hunger wakes up, it doesn’t matter how much you’ve got—you only want more. A girl from a poor, sheltered town like this, once she cracked the door open to the lure of cash, there was no shutting it. Even if you warned her that easy money always demands a heavier price later, she wouldn’t hear it. It’s like a gambler on a hot streak—you tell him to walk when he’s up big? No way. Even if you spell it out that the house set the trap and the hammer’s about to fall, he won’t believe you.
