Chapter 651

Nie Zhao took his son back to the hotel first, of course; he had left in public, and the reporters were trailing him. Chen Rou put on a jacket and a baseball cap, as did Nie Jiajun, and the two of them set off to find the server room. Nie Jiayu had suspected earlier that Chen Rou might have been a croupier; frankly, Nie Jiajun felt the same way. But he also suspected that his stepmother had been a police officer—specifically, one from the Flying Tigers. When she slipped into the crowd, hands in her pockets and head bowed, her movements were perfectly natural. Had Nie Jiajun not been following her closely, a mere glance at her back would have led him to believe his stepmother was just another street thug. It was only because of his experience tagging along with Huo Qi that he realized, as she brushed her shoulder against two junket agents walking toward them, that she had lifted their wallets. Nie Jiajun hurried to catch up, though Chen Rou was actually waiting for him, and she handed him one of the wallets.
