Once he was out of the "danger area", Bin breathed a sigh of relief as he hugged the card containing his money, afraid to lose it. The thought of trying another game didn"t cross his mind anymore, all his greed vanished the moment he won the woman"s game and was awarded 3 million won. Along with the one million, he"s gotten from the machine, that"s a whopping 4 million won, an astronomical amount for a poverty-stricken person like Bin.Such a big amount is a blessing that should not be lost or wasted on useless stuff. He"ll save the majority of it and spend the rest on Mina, probably buy her a few gifts and clothes.
He"ll also need to find a newer apartment for the little girl, maybe he"ll even ask Jasmine"s mother. Seeing that the madam likes Mina quite a bit, she won"t mind finding her a decent plan, or so thought the excited Bin.
He was lost in his drifting thoughts as he sat on the counter, alone and undisturbed by anyone for a while.
The young man was snapped out of his daze only when a hand patted his shoulder, causing his body to abruptly turn toward the source of "annoyance". As Bin saw this unique fox mask, the servant let out a strange laugh that made Aldren back away, seemingly afraid.
"What"s wrong? Why are you laughing creepily like that?"
The suspicious rich kid glanced Bin"s friend only to see a number followed by six "0". Gob-smacked, he stealthily lifted his mask and rubbed his eyes before putting it back on. He leaned his head closer and glued his eyes on Bin"s card, which he didn"t try to hide from his newly made "friend".
"That"s 4 million, right?"
Bin proudly waved the card in front of Aldren before saying: "Yes."
Unlike his usual toneless voice, he spoke with a bit of excitement and joy. "
"T-that"s quite a feat for your first day."
Normally, first-timers would use their free million on their first day, even Aldren wasn"t an exception. So, when he saw his companion return with four times that amount in less than an hour, he truly was astonished.
"What games did you win in?"
Curious about what happened, Aldren asked him, to which Bin planned to reply honestly only to suddenly retracted the hand that was holding the card with lightning speed. He seemed to be afraid of something as he hid the card in his pocket and said:

"It"s almost time for me to go back."
He tried to leave only for Aldren to hold his shoulder, stopping him and saying:
"Come on, tell me! Don"t worry, I don"t need you to lend me!"
The dandy youth remained persistent, refusing to let go of the frustrated Bin. Sadly, he didn"t manage to get away in time as a black silhouette appeared behind Aldren, freaking him out. The young man let out a girly yell and turned around only to see a woman whose face was covered by a black veil. Just like most of the customers, Aldren recognized the woman but due to the fright she gave him, it took him a painstaking five seconds to react as he swallowed some saliva and said:
"Lady Ca.s.s, nice to see you!"
The hand that was holding Bin loosened as his partner was too preoccupied with the woman. Unfortunately, when he tried to leave again, Lady Ca.s.s, who just nodded to Aldren, appeared in front of him.
"G.o.dd.a.m.ned ghost! Does she really want her money back?!"
Bin panicked as he clenched the card inside his pocket and stared back at the inky black eyes under the half-transparent veil. Perhaps due to the rising stress or nervousness, Bin spoke with an almost robotic voice:
"I.don"t.want.to.play."
When it comes to money, Bin became a totally different person. He doesn"t mind earning big but will never give back "hard-earned" money.
"I just want to chat though."
The woman spoke calmly as she took the seat next to Bin, pulling it a distance away from the counter as to purposely block his path. The woman could hear the youngster grind his teeth but she didn"t seem to mind as she patiently waited for his reply.
Sadly, Lady Ca.s.s, who thought she was being quite smart, didn"t expect the youngster to be that desperate. She expected him to sit and chat with her as that was what anyone in his situation will do but Bin was an eccentric person. He blankly stared at her for a few seconds before taking a deep breath and shamelessly saying:
"I need to p.i.s.s, bye."
Without even waiting for a reply, he turned around and left like the wind. Even Aldren, who witnessed everything, was dumbfounded, his mouth opening and closing several times.
"What did I just witness? Did he really ditch Lady Ca.s.s?"
Moreover, he uttered vulgar words and didn"t even excuse himself. The woman remained motionless for a long time before a silent chuckle escaped her lips.
As for the dandy rich youth, his body started sweating as he didn"t want to provoke the woman. He bowed his head and followed after Bin only to remember that his friend was a newcomer and he doesn"t even know where the restroom was!
While inwardly swearing at Bin"s reckless actions, Aldren left the gambling manor while confidently predicting where his companion should have gone.
