I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

Chapter 493 I Want to Learn a Foreign Language

At the same time, in Mo Village, inside the Crown Hotel suite.

There is a subtle tension in the tranquility. The warm yellow light falls softly, adding a bit of warmth and comfort to the whole space.

Saori sat on the edge of the bed, wrapped in a white bathrobe, with her long hair casually draped over her shoulders, looking a little messy. Her little hands rubbed the edge of the bathrobe anxiously, as if trying to find a little comfort in it.

In the bathroom next door, the sound of the shower gradually stopped, replaced by the sound of water dripping. Then, the bathroom door slowly opened, and Ma Yueling's figure appeared in sight. She was wearing a white bathrobe, and her graceful figure looming under the bathrobe looked even more graceful under the light. She walked gently to the bed and sat next to Saori.

The atmosphere between the two was a little subtle. Saori looked away, not daring to look directly into Ma Yueling's eyes. Ma Yueling seemed relatively calm. She turned her head slightly and asked in a gentle tone, "Saori, what's wrong with you? Are you worried about something?"

Saori bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Sister Ling, I... want to go home." Her voice trembled a little, revealing her inner uneasiness.

Ma Yueling patted Saori's shoulder gently and comforted her, "It's not safe outside now. Jin Nana is fine. I know so many things have happened recently that you are a little nervous, Saori. No matter what happens, I will be with you." Her voice was unusually gentle, giving people a sense of security.

"I'm not afraid, Chen Xi is here to protect me!" Saori once again emphasized that she wanted to go back.

"Okay, it's so late now, why go home? Stop saying these angry words. Whatever movie or TV series you want to watch, I have them all here." Ma Yueling lifted the quilt, sat next to Saori, grabbed her little hand and asked.

"There's nothing I want to watch." Saori shook her head. How could she have the mood to watch TV series now?

"I have a new movie from Sakura Country, but unfortunately it doesn't have subtitles. Saori, can you help me translate it? I want to learn a foreign language." Ma Yueling smiled and picked up a strand of Saori's hair, gently playing with it in her hands, and then put it to the tip of her nose, as if intoxicated by the faint fragrance of her hair. Then she picked up the remote control and skillfully operated it to open the movie.

When the movie started playing on the screen, Ma Yueling raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and she consciously stretched out her hand, hugged the girl next to her, and started her language class.

Saori moved her body slightly, but unexpectedly, the other party hugged her tighter. Fearing that she would annoy the other party and bring trouble to Chen Xi, Saori could only pout and let Ma Yueling hug her.

Two days later, Chen Xi bid farewell to Zhao Lingshan and her daughter and returned to Mo Village.

"I did a good job this time, didn't I?" After getting off the plane, Chen Xi went straight to the consulate. Shen Lang in front of him was processing documents with dark circles under his eyes.

"Well, that's good. It's a great achievement."

"Is that all? Is there any substantial reward?"

"What kind of reward do you want? Do you want to be made the Grand Marshal of the Navy, Army and Air Force?"

"You are such a traitor. Don't come to me for a mission next time." Chen Xi pretended to be angry and turned his head away.

"I have a lot of things waiting to be dealt with. The country will not forget your contribution. The matter of the Guru Cult has not been resolved yet, and other Chinese have complained that their business has been suppressed. Other companies have long disliked them and took the opportunity to advertise and let local residents boycott their products..." Shen Lang rubbed his temple and yawned without caring about his image.

"What should we do now?"

"We can only pray that Australia will fall out with the superpower over there, so that it can change its attitude towards us and maintain trade relations and multilateral cooperation with our country..." Shen Lang did not hide it.

"How is Wang Mumu? I saw him being very active in front of the media, threatening to kill him again if Nihong dared to come out." Chen Xi thought of the news in the past two days, Wang Mumu kept appearing in front of the camera. It was unimaginable that he hadn't been assassinated by the followers of the Guru Cult yet, as he looked like he deserved a beating.

After witnessing the madness of the Guru Cult in Xi Village, Chen Xi felt that those people were capable of doing anything.

"Now he has cooperated with us obediently, otherwise this guy would never have been able to return to China alive. The body has been tested and it has basically ruled out that it is Ni Hong's identity. But Ni Hong is hiding and not showing up, and we have no way to do anything. I hope that Wang Mumu's idea will work." Shen Lang shook his head and laughed when he thought of what Wang Mumu had done.

Although he is so old, his every move is like that of a child. He even played shadow puppet games out of boredom in the police station.

"I think this method will work, although it is ridiculous. But from a religious perspective, the shattering of faith is a devastating blow. If Neon hides and does nothing, so many believers around the world will surely leave the religion. In addition, the long-term disappearance of the organization's top leader will surely arouse suspicion among those at the bottom, and the top leaders will take the opportunity to seize power. The incident of Gao Jian and Kong Jianren has exposed this big problem. Neon is not an idiot. To be able to build such a large organization, he must have extraordinary qualities. He will understand the dangers." Chen Xi nodded and began to analyze.

Chen Xi tried to call the old lady of the Guru Sect, but no one answered. He guessed that the old lady was probably arrested by the police, and now he couldn't ask anything.

After coming out of the consulate, Chen Xi called Saori. After learning that the other party was with Ma Yueling, he went to Crown.

"Ha, why are you here? Well, it's not very safe outside now, so it's not bad to stay here. Is the little Korean awake?" Coming to Crown, Chen Xi hugged Saori in his arms and pinched her face.

"Nana woke up, but was taken away by her brother." Saori answered with her head down.

"Oh? You're not coming back?"

"That's not the case. She said she would be back in a few days."

"Saori is safe here. I wanted to keep her here for a few more days, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon." Ma Yueling reached out and touched Saori's little face, and said softly.

"Thank you, Sister Ling, for helping take care of her this time. I've been very busy lately, so I'm a little overwhelmed." Chen Xi thanked Ma Yueling. This woman helped him so much without asking for anything in return. It was like he had met a noble person.

"It's nothing, Saori is my sister, and it's my duty to do all this. Okay, let's go eat something." After saying that, Ma Yueling gently touched Saori's hair again.

Chen Xi nodded and did not refuse.

Following Ma Yueling through the interior of the casino, all the gambling tables, big and small, were surrounded by people.

"Sure enough, no business can make money faster than opening a casino." Chen Xi sighed again.

"Hehe, if you have any ideas, I can help you." Ma Yueling chuckled and turned to look at him.

"Help me? Can you let me invest in Casino? How is this possible? Even if I am willing, the boss of Casino will not agree." Chen Xi shook his head, thinking it was just a joke from Ma Yueling.

In his previous life, he wanted to enter the gambling industry, but the threshold to entry into this industry was high and the relationships were complicated, so it was not something an ordinary businessman like him could do.

"We can try another way. However, such a good thing requires paying a price..." Ma Yueling tapped her chin with her finger and glanced at Saori beside her.

"The price? Casino is not short of money, so does that mean we have to obey orders from others?" "Hehe, you still owe me three things to do, don't think about it for now."

"What three things?"

Saori, who was standing by, heard the conversation between the two and pricked up her ears alertly.

At the dice game table next to him, a slightly bald man in a suit was placing bets non-stop. Some of the players beside him shook their heads, some had shining eyes, and some cheered for him. The dealers had no expression on their faces, because they could see this money-giving boy giving away money every day.

"Dad, if you keep playing like this, you'll probably lose everything again soon. I've never seen you win before. You're just a money-spending kid."

"How come you have never won? You know nothing. The leopard has a 5000-fold odds, which is exciting to play. The other odds are too small, and I am not interested. Besides, I am bald, and I am a money-giving boy?" The bald man bet on the leopard, then turned his head and pointed at the top of his head to his son.

After the dealer announced the result, as expected, he missed again.

However, the man was not disappointed, but continued to bet on the leopard. Tao Le, who was standing by, could not help but shook his head when he saw that he could not persuade him. He turned around and wanted to play the house game he usually liked to play, but saw Chen Xi walking over.

"Hey, Chen Xi. Why are you here? You refused to come and play before. Have you gotten the idea now? Come on, I'll take you to have fun. Thanks to you last time, otherwise my underwear would have been snatched away by those black people..." Tao Le called him.

"Hey, you come to Crown to give money again." Chen Xi teased.

"Hey, I'm the one who won the money, and my dad is the one who gave away the money." Tao Le pointed at his father who had placed the bet.

The man also turned around at this time and stretched out his hand towards Chen Xi: "Haha, I lost again this time. Chen Xi, do you want to play a few hands? I still have some chips left."

Tao Le's father, Tao Yuanming, is from Tongzhou like Allen. He came to Shanghai with a snakeskin bag and a hundred yuan. After working hard, he became successful and now bets on leopards at Crown every day.

Although he lost money every day, Tao Yuanming didn't care at all. Chen Xi felt that his money seemed to never run out.

"No, uncle. I'm here to have dinner with someone." Chen Xi walked up to him and shook hands.

"Oh, I heard Tao Le said that you are involved in real estate recently. You are such a motivated kid. Unlike my son, he only thinks about opening an Internet cafe every day."

"Uncle, I also run an Internet cafe..."

"Oh, haha, if you want to do real estate, I can take you to China. I have a very sharp eye. Just by taking a look at the project, I can calculate how much money it will cost. Even those professionals admired me back then. I went to the Magic City alone..." Tao Yuanming would tell his entrepreneurial history every time they met, but Chen Xi always listened patiently.

This guy is quite capable. Chen Xi can always learn a lot of useful things from his words.

"Do you want to go for dinner? I'll treat you. And since you've brought two beauties with you, let's go together." Tao Yuanming talked for a while before making the invitation.

"No, uncle. She is from Crown. It's not good for players to have dinner with the dealer and be seen by others..." Chen Xi leaned close to his ear and explained.

"Oh...Is that so...Okay, let's eat it again next time we have a chance." After saying hello, Tao Yuanming turned around and continued placing bets.

"I'll go first." Chen Xi greeted Tao Le.

"Haha, I got the leopard. I am still Chen Xiwang. How about it, son? You said before that I was a boy who gave away money, but I am simply possessed by the God of Wealth!"

After Chen Xi left, Tao Yuanming clapped his hands and laughed, then pulled his son to the gambling table. He bet 10,000 yuan on the leopard, and 5,000 yuan on the leopard, which means he won 900,000 Australian dollars!
Everyone present exclaimed in surprise, and the dealer called the Supervisor to confirm.

This amount of money was nothing to Tao Yuanming, but the joy of winning the jackpot made him very satisfied.

All he wanted was to have fun. In fact, the amount of money he lost at Crown in a year was incalculable, but he didn't care.

The 900,000 won today will be returned to Crown in the future. As a frequent visitor to Casino, the Supervisor just smiled and asked someone to pay him.

"I didn't expect that you never gamble, but you know so many people here." On the way, Ma Yueling teased him with a smile on her face.

"Haha, we are all old friends. Australia is so small and there are so many Chinese people. It is easy to find acquaintances wherever you go. People like us with yellow skin are particularly conspicuous in the crowd." Chen Xi smiled.

The three of them sat down in a Chinese restaurant. Ma Yueling ordered a few dishes. When they were halfway through the meal, Ma Yueling put down her chopsticks and looked at him seriously.

"You've been very busy lately."

"Well, I went to Sydney to deal with some things. Now the attitude of the Australian government towards the Chinese seems to have changed. The company was also attacked by hackers. It’s a headache!" Chen Xi rubbed his temples, looking a little tired.

"Although the authorities have made preliminary arrangements for the current refugee situation, given the large number of refugees, the transfer work still needs to be carried out step by step. In addition, considering that members of the Guru Cult are still active outside, the current security situation remains severe and cannot be ignored." Ma Yueling crossed her hands and rested them on her chin.

"Yeah, I understand." Chen Xi nodded.

"So you are so busy, Saori needs someone to take care of her, and I am worried about her. You have to go out of town from time to time, and our house may be robbed again at any time. Well, how about this, Saori will stay at my place for a while in the next few days, and when you are done with your work, you can let her go back. I am lonely alone, and I want to find someone to accompany me."

"Chen Xi, I..." Saori on the side suddenly spoke.

"Saori, I want to go to the bathroom. Can you come with me? I'm not feeling well today." Ma Yueling interrupted her before she could finish her words, and deliberately took out a sanitary napkin from her bag.

"Ah... okay... ..." Saori muttered something and could only nod in agreement.

She glanced reluctantly at Chen Xi who was sitting opposite her, but was still pulled to the bathroom by Ma Yueling.

Chen Xi looked at the two people's departing backs, and a sense of inexplicable doubt arose in his heart.
