Chapter 1849 Good luck
"No, I didn't participate in the competition, I just appeared as an audience member." Grace shook her head. She didn't have that much money to participate in such competitions. She was able to appear here because of that man, Jason Ben, her public boyfriend.
Jason was a professional gambler, and his favorite gambling method was Texas Hold'em. He came here whether it was to win the prize or to compete with the masters. Moreover, he and Sri happened to be in the same gambling hall. At this moment, the two of them were fighting.
Grace didn't want to continue watching, so she left the gambling hall, but she didn't expect to meet Chu Yan outside because she knew Chu Yan was one of the people participating in the competition. Now seeing him here, she instinctively thought that he had been struck out.
"Oh, your boyfriend is still playing?" Chu Yan did not answer Grace's inquiry, but instead asked another question with a smile: "Do you think he has the hope of advancing to the final?"
"I don't know, but he is very good at playing Texas Hold'em, and it will not be very difficult to qualify." Grace shook her head. She didn't know about her boyfriend's strength, but she didn't care. She now focused on one thing, that is, she wanted to completely get rid of Jason Ben with the help of Chu Yan's power.
So after the words fell, Grace's gaze swept around, then lowered her voice and continued to say to Chu Yan: "Rick, what are you thinking about what I'm talking to you?"
"What's the matter?" Chu Yan was stunned, and then pretended to be innocent. Grace had to say his request again: "Rick, I want you to help me escape from here. As long as I can stay away from Jason Ben and make me pay any price, I can promise you."
"Grace, you should know that this is the high seas, and there is no one in the range of dozens of kilometers, right?" Chu Yan looked at Grace. He did not intend to interfere with Grace's affairs from the bottom of his heart. After all, it is better to have less than more things.
Besides, Chu Yan's affairs are no longer in the state of being one more or one less. He has helped the queen find Sri. If it goes well, he and the queen will leave the Princess Knight early. Chu Yan has no idea what will happen to Grace and her boyfriend at that time.
"I know, but if you can help me when the Princess Knight docks, I think I can still escape." Grace nodded. She knew very well that her request was a bit abrupt. To be honest, Chu Yan knew nothing about her. Such a request was really an excessive amount for Chu Yan.
"Grace, you know I can't give you any guarantee, because for me, I don't know what will happen on this ship." Chu Yan looked at Grace and once again refused her request: "So, if you really want to leave your boyfriend, you probably have to choose another way."
After Chu Yan said this, he couldn't help but pause, then looked at Grace and asked subconsciously: "After that's it, why did you leave your boyfriend? Is there any reason why you have to leave?"
"Yes! If there is no need to leave, will I ask you for help when I first met you?" Grace was instinctively disappointed when she heard Chu Yan's rejection, but she also knew that Chu Yan's rejection was reasonable. Her desire to leave Jason Ben was too urgent, so she raised it before the time came.
"Oh, since that's the case, come and listen. Although I can't give you any promises, if it's necessary or if there's a chance, I might do something." Chu Yan's words made Grace happy, and then briefly explained the relationship between herself and Jason Ben.
Simply put, Jason Ben and Grace are not a couple. Jason Ben designed to win over Grace's parents' property overnight. Grace's parents chose to commit suicide. Grace learned about her parents' death and returned home from abroad. After that, Jason Ben appeared in front of her as a friend.
Later, after a series of things, Grace became Jason Ben's woman. Later, Grace accidentally learned the truth of the matter. When she went to Jason Ben to question her, Jason Ben completely tore her face, beat her up, and then put her under house arrest.
The conflict completely intensified. Grace wanted to escape from Jason Ben's control several times, but every time she tried, she would be beaten up by Jason Ben, but Hu was placed under house arrest for a longer period of time.
Over time, Grace gave up on the idea of escaping, and Jason was obsessed with her, and took her with her almost everywhere she went.
However, the only thing Grace wants to do is leave him. Although she has been at peace for a long time, when the two of them came to the ship, Grace's desire to escape from Jason Ben exploded instantly, which is also the main reason why she found Chu Yan.
Of course, Grace did not deliberately find Chu Yan, but that chance encounter was the only five minutes that Grace could escape Jason Ben's surveillance. At that moment, Chu Yan was the only person who appeared in front of her.
So, what happened next naturally happened.
"Grace, the two people standing there are those who are monitoring you, right?" Chu Yan stood up with a smile and poured a cup of coffee, then sat down again, and asked in a low voice: "From the moment you came out, the two of them stood there, their eyes fixed on you. They are your boyfriend's people, right?"
"Yes, they are the lackeys of Jason's men. They will follow wherever I go, but they don't restrict me from doing anything. As long as I don't try to escape, they won't care about me when I go shopping or something." Glas nodded. She didn't have to turn around and look at anything, because she knew very well what Jason would do.
"You haven't thought that if you escape, will he still catch you back?" Chu Yan's question shocked Grace. She did not think of these things. She just wanted to escape. As for what happened after the escape, she had no time to think about it, and she didn't know how to think about it.
"I don't know, I'll take one step at a time." Grace was quite straightforward, shrugged her shoulders and said a helpless answer: "I just want to escape from him, the farther away, the better. As for other things, I don't have any ideas, because I can't even escape from him. What's the use of talking so far?"
"You are quite realistic." Chu Yan smiled and shook his head, then his eyes fell in the direction of the No. 6 gambling hall, and another player appeared. Moreover, looking at the expression on the player's face, it was completely judging that he was also a tragic player who was swept out.
"It's not my reality, it's the reality that is too helpless." Grace's reaction was a little disappointed. As she spoke, she stood up and poured herself a glass of red wine, and then returned to her seat. Looking at the two people standing in the distance, her face couldn't help but show a numb and coldness.
"Hi, you have good luck today." The eliminated player came to Chu Yan and greeted him with a smile, while Chu Yan nodded, with a dull smile on his face: "Indeed, my luck today is good. So far, I don't seem to have seen the second person qualifying. I don't know if I won too quickly."
"Don't worry, it will be there soon, okay! I won't bother you anymore, I'm eliminated, I have to look for my woman to find some comfort." The person who came chatted for a few words, then left directly.
At this moment, Grace understood that Chu Yan was not struck out, but that he had completed the conditions for promotion and was the first to advance, so he appeared here.
This discovery surprised Grace very much. She looked at Chu Yan with a scrutiny, and her faint smile became more and more obvious. This expression made Chu Yan look a little strange: "Grace, what does your expression mean?"
"Nothing interesting." Grace shook her head, then smiled and picked up the wine glass and took a sip. Then, under Chu Yan's gaze, she had to explain: "I just didn't expect that you are also a hidden master. There are 72 contestants, you are the first to qualify. I'm afraid this is impossible to do with luck alone, right?"
