“What the hell? Fifty into a hundred?!” Chen shook the chips in his hand.
Lin Nan said contemptuously, “Do you think that you can rely solely on luck to win? Don’t forget, you must win five hundred thousand, before daybreak!”
“Hehe, watch me. Let me show you how it’s done!” Chen grinned, and re-entered the battle ground.
With the help of his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes, he definitely would not lose. He placed all his chips in, for every single game!
A hundred became two!
Two hundred became four!
Four hundred became eight!
One thousand and six, three thousand and two, six thousand and four!
Twelve thousand and eight hundred, twenty-five thousand and six hundred, fifty-one thousand and two hundred!
Only after twenty minutes, the chips in Chen’s hand had already turned into fifty-one thousand and two hundred Yuan!
“My God! This kid is God! He actually won ten rounds in one go!”
“His luck is unbelievable!”
“Everybody! Quick! Buy whatever he is buying! You’ll surely win!”
Very soon, Chen became the center of attention. Everyone was watching his every move, hoping to hit the jackpot with him.
“Hurry! Place the bet! Brother-in-law, place the bet! It’s going to become one hundred thousand!”
At the same time, Lin Nan was already caught up in the craze. He no longer looked down on Chen; what’s more, he even called Chen ‘Brother-in-law’ affectionately.
“The bank won’t let me win this round,” Chen whispered into Lin Nan’s ear.
“How could this be? It’s all about luck now! Brother-in-law, you’re so prosperous, you surely will keep winning! Place the bet! Place the bet now!” Lin Nan was too excited to listen to Chen.
“You’ll see.”
Chen used his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes, and saw the contents of the dice cup, they were: three dots, six dots, five dots. It should be big.
But this time, he only used two hundred chips, and threw the chips at the big side.
“Let’s bet on the big side. We should just follow him! He can never get anything wrong!”
“Bet! Bet! Bet!”
The group of gamblers placed their chips at the big side without hesitation.
“Lift your hands after placing your bet!” The dealer shouted, but he did not deal immediately.
With his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes, Chen saw the dealer kicking a switch under the table.
Probably because of the electromagnets, the dice in the dice cups all flipped, and became two dots, two dots, one dot!
The dealer opened the dice cup and announced, “Two, two, one! Total of five points! Small!”
Then, he systematically kept all the chips on the big side into his bag.
The surrounding gamblers suddenly let out a desolate cry.
Chen did not stay but immediately pulled Lin Nan away from the table.
“Did you see the dirty trick that was used by the dealer just now?” Chen asked.
Lin Nan swallowed, and said uneasily, “I felt that something fishy is going on! I think the dealer just cheated on us…”
“Mm, this proves that you are not completely stupid,” Chen nodded.
“Let’s go, brother-in-law. This place is a money pit! I will never come here again, ever!” Lin Nan’s heart turned cold.
When he recalled the time he lost the money, he became more and more certain that there was something suspicious about the banker.
“I have not won five hundred thousand yet. How can I leave?” Chen shrugged; he did not plan to leave.
When Lin Nan heard this, he asked, confused, “Brother-in-law, why would you want to continue betting if you know that the bankers are playing dirty?”
“Because your knowledge of gambling is not deep enough. You must see the more brutal side of gambling before you can really give up on gambling!” Chen said nonchalantly.
Lin Nan was surprised and touched. He then asked anxiously, “I know that you are doing this for my own good, but, if we continue to gamble, I’m afraid that we’ll lose everything!”
“Don’t worry, I will not lose!”
Chen grinned and walked towards the table.
With his Golden Gaze Fiery Eye, he would definitely win.
He walked to a different table and played another four rounds. Fifty thousand worth of chips turned into eight hundred thousand.
After settling Lin Nan’s debt, there should be three hundred remaining.
“Brother-in-law! You have actually won fourteen rounds! You’re not human! You’re a God! The God of Gambling! From today onwards, you are my idol!”
Lin Nan was already admiring Chen from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Nan had gambled for so many years but never once has he met anyone as good as Chen.
“Don’t get all excited yet. Go, bank in the chips for now,” Chen handed the chips to Lin Nan.
“Alright! I’ll go!” Lin Nan was very excited and went off dutifully.
At the front desk.
Lin Nan placed the chips on the table, and said with a smile plastered across his face, “Wolfie, can you please cash in the chips for me.”
“Oh? Your luck seems to be pretty good today! But, you’re leaving already?” Wolfie glanced at the chips, and he wore a forced expression on his face.
Lin Nan had not noticed the expressoin yet, and said optimistically, “Mm, I’m done for today. I’ll come again, next time.”
“What about the money you owe Brother Bill?” Wolfie questioned.
“This… I’ll have to ask my brother-in-law…” Lin Nan hesitated. After all, all this money belonged to Chen.
But when he turned back, he could not spot Chen.
“You can’t owe someone money and not return it. That is just wrong.” Wolfie said coldly.
“I’ll pay… I’ll pay…” Lin Nan swallowed. He thought to himself that he would use the money to pay his debt first. Owing money to Chen was better than owing Brother Bill.
“That’s more like it. Follow me,” Wolfie said softly.
Lin Nan could only follow him submissively.
After that, Wolfie brought Lin Nan into a room and made him wait.
After a few minutes, Brother Bill walked in, with a couple of vicious-looking guys.”
“Good day, Brother Bill!”
When Lin Nan saw them approach, he stood up immediately, nodding his head and stooping over to greet Brother Bill.
“Good day to your asshole too!”
To Lin Nan’s surprise, Brother Bill raised his fist and punched him squarely in his mouth. Lin Nan fell hard onto the ground.
“Bill… Brother Bill, why did you hit me?” Lin Nan was baffled.
“You asshole, how dare you cheat in my casino?! I will not only give you a good beating, I will even cut off your right arm!”
This Brother Bill was the infamous Bearman; Shi Dabiao!
“I… I did not cheat!” Lin Nan froze; he was so scared he nearly wet his pants.
“Hmph! When I say that you cheated, you did! You cheated in my casino!”
Da Biao’s tone was cold. He was being unreasonable, “Come! Cut off his arm, take him out to show the others! Let everyone know that this piece of sh*t is a dirty cheat! Confiscate all the chips he had won!”
“This…”
Lin Nan’s heart twisted into a knot – he felt like the sky was falling down on him.
It was the casino that was cheating, but they had falsely accused him of cheating instead, putting the blame on his good name! What’s more, it was all based on empty rumors and hearsay, he did not even get a chance to prove his innocence!
Right then, Lin Nan finally understood the nature of gambling.
When a gambler loses, he deserved it. But when a gambler wins, he had to spit out the money that he had won.
If you win too much, to a point where the casino’s profit is affected, you would end up like this – attracting trouble and death!
“I will stop…I will never gamble ever Again…Brother-in-law, save me….bro…save me…Brother-in-law!!!” Lin Nan wailed.
When Dabiao saw this, he said contemptuously, “Heh, still calling out for your brother-in-law? It’s no use even if you were to call out to the Heavenly King himself!”
“Bam!”
Just then, someone kicked open the door.
Chen strode in, and looked coldly at Da Biao.
