Chapter 63
Xiao Ning's appearance caused a brief mont of silence among the crowd.
Soon after, they started discussing in hushed voices.
"Who is this person? She seems rather imposing!"
"Shhh, don't speak too loudly. No matter who she is, she's definitely soone we don't want to ss with!"
"Who exactly is that woman surnad Qin? How does she always manage to find people willing to give her money? I'm so jealous!"
"You're not the only one."
The brawny man beside Xiao Ning called for everyone to quiet down a little. "Please keep it down, everyone. Our boss wants to say a few words."
But when "he" spoke, everyone realized this imposing figure was actually a woman with a masculine appearance!
Qin Zhao couldn't help but take a few more glances at her. This woman exuded a great sense of security!
Seeing everyone's curiosity about her identity, Xiao Ning generously introduced herself: "Let
introduce myself. I'm the boss of the Ghost God Casino, Xiao Ning.
Everyone, please feel free to relax and enjoy yourselves tonight."
Her words caused quite a stir, since the gamblers had visited the Ghost God Casino many tis but never t the boss before. They were very excited!
"The boss is just a young girl?"
"I thought she was the boss's daughter or sothing!"
"She's so young but already a casino boss. I was still doing hard labor at her age."
...
After they chattered excitedly for a while, Xiao Ning, Qin Zhao, and Nan Yue took their seats.
Ye Jianxiong showed little reaction to Xiao Ning's appearance. After all, he had seen many prominent figures before.
He asked, "Boss Xiao ca to support Miss Qin?"
Xiao Ning glanced at Qin Zhao and replied, "That's right. Sister Qin is my most important guest tonight, so I wanted to accompany her personally."
She briefly explained the new gambling thod Qin Zhao had proposed earlier. "Now that Boss Xiao is here, this round will get more interesting. Let's begin."
"Wait!" Xiao Ning suddenly interjected. "Master Ye, don't you want to know why I'm here?"
Confusion flashed across Ye Jianxiong's eyes as he scrutinized Xiao Ning. He couldn't find any information about her in his mory.
He asked, "What do you an, Boss Xiao? When I co to gamble, I don't care who the boss is."
Xiao Ning laughed drily a few tis. "Master Ye has quite a poor mory for soone so distinguished. Three years ago, when you gambled with my father, I was sitting right next to him. I've witnessed your elegance before."
Ye Jianxiong asked with great interest, "Oh? Who's your father?"
Xiao Ning enunciated each word clearly: "Xiao Qiancheng!"
"Xiao Qiancheng," Ye Jianxiong frowned for a mont as if trying to recall. "So it was him."
Seeing Ye Jianxiong's nonchalant reaction, Xiao Ning could barely restrain the anger swelling up inside her!
The nightmare that had haunted her for three years was just a trivial matter that Ye Jianxiong barely even rembered!
Ye Jianxiong replied calmly, "Your father lost to
in gambling and bet his hands. I heard he later committed suicide. It was his own weakness that killed him.
Boss Xiao is a reasonable person. You can't bla his death on , can you?"
Xiao Ning suppressed the urge to stride over and slap him twice across the face. "If you had won fair and square against my father, there would be no issue. But if you cheated, then the matter can't be dismissed so easily.
Let
make this clear: cheating in the Ghost God Casino will cost you your hands. This rule was made just for you!
It's been three years and my people still haven't found evidence of your cheating, but I remain convinced that you are a swindler!
Tonight, the truth will co to light. Let's wait and see."
Ye Jianxiong was confident that his skills had reached such mastery that no one could defeat him. What could two silly girls do to him?
He just laughed nonchalantly. "Does your confidence stem from this Miss Qin beside you? Don't forget, she has already suffered a crushing defeat at my hands! You've bet on the wrong horse!"
Qin Zhao took over the conversation. "Whether that is true or not will beco clear before midnight tonight. Let's not waste any more ti."
Xiao Ning nodded at the dealer.
The dealer announced, "Let the gambling comnce!"
Round three, ga one.
Qin Zhao and Ye Jianxiong each received a hole card.
Qin Zhao flipped open a corner and saw it was a 6 of Hearts.
The first open card was Qin Zhao's 7 of Hearts, lower than Ye Jianxiong's Q of Diamonds.
Ye Jianxiong: "I bet one million."
Qin Zhao: "I call, one million."
Then in a voice only Xiao Ning could hear, she asked, "How much money did you bring?"
Xiao Ning whispered back, "20 billion."
Qin Zhao said, "Not enough."
Xiao Ning frowned, "But you only needed 9.8 billion, right?"
Qin Zhao nonchalantly said, "I just thought 9.8 billion sounded nice to say. But any amount is fine."
Xiao Ning: "..."
"Then how much do you need?"
Qin Zhao whispered a number in her ear.
Upon hearing it, Xiao Ning almost jumped up in shock. "Sister Qin! Are you a glutton? You're like a bottomless pit!"
"Hehe, didn't you say you have unlimited money? Ti to test how deep your pockets are!"
Xiao Ning rolled her eyes. "I don't have that much cash on hand. I'll need an hour to get more money. Is that okay?"
Qin Zhao looked at her watch. It was 10:30 now. After an hour of fundraising, it would be 11:30. That would leave only half an hour until midnight.
They had to turn the ga around in the final half hour, or they wouldn't have ti to go to Xiao Tao!
She gritted her teeth and decisively said, "Fine! One hour. I'll try to stall as long as I can with these 20 billion. You go get the money quickly!"
Xiao Ning said, "Got it, I'll order my people to handle it right away!"
After the fifth card was dealt, Qin Zhao's hand was a 6, 7, 8 of Hearts and 9 of Diamonds, 10 of Spades - a straight.
Ye Jianxiong's open cards were a pair of Qs, 5 of Hearts and 7 of Diamonds.
Qin Zhao spoke, "I call, five million."
Ye Jianxiong said, "Miss Qin, are you afraid of losing? Why are you betting so conservatively? That's not your style from before."
Qin Zhao replied, "If I was afraid of losing I wouldn't be sitting here. Just testing the waters since this is a new ga."
Ye Jianxiong gave an OK gesture. "I call, five million."
After two rounds of calling, Qin Zhao waved her hand. "I'm done calling. You decide if we compare high or low hands."
Ye Jianxiong flipped over his hole card, the Q of Hearts, and said, "Of course, high hand!"
Qin Zhao discarded her straight. "You win."
In the next nine gas, Qin Zhao called a maximum of 10 million, then stopped. Thus, Ye Jianxiong always decided to compare high or low hands and won every round.
The clock now showed 11:20 PM.
Round eleven.
Ye Jianxiong sighed after looking at his cards, "Miss Qin, your performance in this third round has been quite disappointing!"
Just then, Xiao Ning's phone buzzed!
Seeing the ssage, she could barely contain her excitent. She moved next to Qin Zhao's ear and whispered, "Sister Qin, it's done."
Qin Zhao nodded slightly and looked up to et Ye Jianxiong's gaze, smiling. "I also find it quite boring. So for this round, let's make it more interesting!"
