Chapter 1223: Chapter 1235
Chu Ge looked at Wei Xiang with a smile.
Wei Xiang’s face was like he was constipated. He pressed his lips tight, glaring at Chu Ge. As the saying goes, things happen in threes. Although Chu Ge just won two rounds, this was still unacceptable!
He was always confident, especially with dice, never having lost. But now he lost twice, which made him start to doubt himself.
Even the surrounding began to whisper. His title as the King of Long Victory was now defeated by Chu Ge.
The streak of victory ended today!
"This is impossible!" Wei Xiang suddenly shouted. He clearly heard it! Even if his luck was bad with gambling stones, there’s no way he’d lose with dice!
He clearly heard it, so why did everything change the mont the jar was opened!
"Soone must have tampered with it!"
Wei Xiang’s eyes were fixed on those three dice, suddenly demanding to check if there was a problem with them.
Although the croupier was not pleased with Wei Xiang’s suspicion, as this related to their Gambling Stone Field’s reputation, suspecting the dice was akin to questioning their field’s credibility.
"What’s this, the Eldest Young Master of the Wei Family from the Six Major Families of the Capital City can’t handle losing?"
Yuwen Kangli had long set aside his personal grievances with Chu Ge. Now that he had profited greatly, he was naturally quite pleased.
"Shut your mouth!"
Wei Xiang glared irritably at Yuwen Kangli. "Hm, anyone associated with you can’t be good! He must have done sothing to the dice! I demand to check these dice!"
Yuwen Kangli, instead of getting angry at being shouted at, looked at Wei Xiang with schadenfreude. Wei Xiang was cursing Chu Ge, which was also indirectly insulting the Nangong Family, and Miss Man Sha was present; this is no trifling matter.
Indeed, Yuwen Kangli saw Nangong Man Sha’s face turning extrely unpleasant, her eyes sinisterly fixed on Wei Xiang, "Wei Xiang, you lost, yet you choose to question the dice, are you implying this Gambling Stone Field shelters cheats?"
Wei Xiang was stunned; he almost forgot Nangong Man Sha was here.
He had shouted at Chu Ge monts ago, naturally, Nangong Man Sha heard it too. Wei Xiang awkwardly coughed lightly, "Miss Man Sha, one cannot be too careful around others. This Chu Ge may not be as honest as he appears, don’t be fooled by his appearance."
"Hmph, whether I’m fooled by appearances has nothing to do with you. It’s best you mind your own business; if you want an inspection, then inspect! Croupier, give him the dice."
The croupier gave the dice to Wei Xiang as per Nangong Man Sha’s request, "Mr. Wei, you’ve been a long-ti custor of our Gambling Stone Field; you should know if there’s a problem with these dice."
Though the croupier was rely a lowly officer, they held significant authority within the Gambling Stone Field, their dissatisfaction could affect soone’s status within the field.
At this mont, the croupier was clearly displeased with Wei Xiang, questioning their field’s credibility, naturally not happy.
After checking the dice, Wei Xiang found no issues, starting to doubt himself, wondering if he indeed encountered a master.
His suspicious gaze fell on Chu Ge, this seemingly unremarkable man, who defeated him, which was hard to accept.
"Mr. Wei, when are you planning to transfer all the hotel shares over?"
Nangong Man Sha asked Wei Xiang, smiling gently.
Wei Xiang clenched his mouth shut, not replying.
Nangong Man Sha casually flipped her hair, a faint disdain on her lips, "Are you planning to renege on your agreent?"
Saying this, she retrieved the original gambling agreent from the croupier, waving it before Wei Xiang.
"Mr. Wei, it’s all written on this black and white paper, are you planning to default?"
Wei Xiang coughed lightly, with so many people present, he couldn’t deny it, otherwise, not only would he be disgraced, but the entire Wei Family too.
"Miss Man Sha, it’s better to show rcy where possible; there’s no need to be so aggressive."
Seeing Wei Xiang’s embarrassnt, Shen Xuan chid in from the side.
Nangong Man Sha chuckled lightly, her lips spreading a lovely smile, "Shen Xuan, you’re wrong; I’m afraid soone intends to bully my boyfriend and renege on their word since soone wasn’t willing to admit their defeat and even demanded to inspect the dice."
Wei Xiang felt even more embarrassed.
In their Gambling Stone Field, the most important rules are actually to accept one’s losses, but now Wei Xiang’s deanor seed unable to accept the reality.
The people who initially supported Wei Xiang began siding with Chu Ge after seeing Wei Xiang’s reluctance to keep his promise.
"Mr. Wei, you should accept your losses, you wouldn’t want the Wei Family to lose face, right?"
Yuwen Kangli spoke up from the side.
Though Wei Xiang didn’t have an unpleasant encounter with Yuwen Kangli at the banquet this ti, he had bullied him in the past, so seeing Wei Xiang humbled now brought him unprecedented joy.
Wei Xiang’s face was hard to maintain. He pressed his lips tightly, glaring at Yuwen Kangli, "Who said I wouldn’t keep my promise? It’s just a hotel! I’ll give it to him!"
Shen Xuan looked at Wei Xiang worriedly, lowered his voice, "Think this through; that hotel is important to you. If you give it away, how will you compete with others?"
Turns out, every family mber of the Wei Clan, upon coming of age, has a subsidiary under their na, and yearly rankings are held based on the subsidiary’s profit.
The ranking primarily aims to motivate the young folks.
But now Wei Xiang lost his subsidiary as a bet, his family’s perception could be affected.
The family would certainly judge Wei Xiang and this would affect his future, making the family’s head uneasy about handing the whole Wei Family to him!
Wei Xiang pressed his thin lips, of course, he knew this all too well. But now, what alternatives does he have? None! He must adhere to his promise to hand the hotel to Chu Ge, otherwise, it wouldn’t just be Wei Xiang’s disgrace.
The Wei Family cannot afford this embarrassnt!
"Alright, the matter is settled, future concerns are for the future!"
Wei Xiang remarked lowly to Shen Xuan, his gaze turned to Chu Ge with resentnt, "Chu Ge, make note, this hotel is temporarily under your managent, sooner or later, I’ll win it back."
Chu Ge smiled, "Things already in my hands, how do you plan on winning them back?"
"I’ll challenge you again!"
