Chapter 3791: A New Addition (407)
Black Panther’s cold-blooded stance was unmistakable. Even though Qingjiu was in so much pain that he might have been better off dead, the man did not take it seriously. Instead, he felt irritated.
Sickly irritated, like a demon.
Out of the corner of his eye, Gu Jinglian caught a glimpse of Chu He on the screen. Her head was bowed, as if she was trying to pick the lock on her wrist. But Black Panther was staring intently at the screen, not focusing on Chu He.
Or maybe he’d underestimated the woman.
All he knew was that Chu He was Gu Jinglian’s woman and wife. He did not know that Chu He had another identity. As Interpol’s top anti-vice inspector, Chu He had once been best at torture and counter-torture.
Given enough ti, the chain would not be able to hold her down at all!
Gu Jinglian imdiately shifted his gaze to Black Panther. Across the cara, the two n glared at each other. Gu Jinglian’s lips suddenly curved into a cold smile.
“Black Panther, if you have what it takes, then let’s take each other on!”
A muscle twitched on Black Panther’s face when he heard this, but he asked sinisterly, “What are the stakes?”
“Your life, and mine.”
Gu Jinglian laughed heartily. “Do you think this ga is interesting?! Qingjiu is my subject. No matter what, he will give in to . You just want my life. What do you get out of pitting Qingjiu and I against each other?!”
Panther narrowed his eyes.
Qingjiu was surprised. He could see that Gu Jinglian was deliberately stalling for ti, but he did not know why.
In the midst of his confusion, Gu Jinglian raised his voice and asked again, “Do you dare to take on?”
“Ha! How do we play?! What are the rules of the ga?!”
“A total of five chances. Winning three rounds would equate to winning. If you win three gas against , then, you can have my arm, my hand, my leg, or… my life, you na it.” After a pause, Gu Jinglian removed the amputation device and said aningfully, “If you lose, you’ll have to let us go!”
“Ha!” Black Panther laughed. “Interesting! But I don’t think your stakes are high enough! Your life alone isn’t enough! Your woman’s life, your children’s life, plus that of your subordinate. How about that!?”
Gu Jinglian hesitated for a mont, then nodded.
Black Panther spoke again. “Then let your man play the cards for . But I’m warning you, the room is fully covered by surveillance caras. You’ve got them under your table, too. If you try to cheat, you won’t escape my eyes!”
Gu Jinglian raised an eyebrow. This was exactly what he wanted! It ant Black Panther would be focusing most of his attention on him.
“Alright!” Gu Jinglian seed confident. “I’m confident I can beat you.”
“Heh, don’t speak so lightly. Otherwise, you’ll look really bad when you lose!”
“Deal the cards!”
The cards entered the dealer and were shuffled again. Everyone was dealt a hidden card and then an open card. Now, Qingjiu took Black Panther’s place and flipped the cards for him.
Qingjiu’s heart was in turmoil. He did not know what Gu Jinglian was stalling for, that he was even putting his own life on the table!
He was a little confused, but he didn’t dare ask anything. Gu Jinglian was always calm and composed in any situation. Perhaps he had thought of a strategy.
Gu Jinglian flipped open his trump card and glanced at it. A 9 of Clubs. Not completely bad luck, but it was not fantastic.
