Early the next morning, the sky faintly began to brighten.
The Grand Tycoon Water Club at this ti was nothing like its bustling self from last night, much quieter, with only one Pai Gow table on the entire basent floor still open for business.
A few gamblers had already collapsed at the table, two of them and a bald Banker sitting in front of the table, their faces etched with fatigue.
But Luo Yuantu had not a trace of sleepiness in him, he had to win, he absolutely had to win.
"Triple! Triple!"
His eyes bloodshot as he stared at the table, he kept muttering to himself.
By now he had lost everything, with only the one million in chips he’d gotten back from Xiao Taohong left on the table.
Normally according to the rules, one couldn’t get a seat at the table without five million, but the Banker, seeing he had only the last million left, didn’t refuse him.
The Banker showed his cards, 14 points, or 5 points, not big, and actually rather small.
The remaining three players showed their cards, the first with 24 points, making a total of 6 points, just enough to take down the Banker.
The second had 35 points, totaling 8 points, a solid win over the Banker.
"Finally, it’s my turn!"
Seeing the two players ahead of him take down the Banker, Luo Yuantu was quite excited; to him, it seed the Banker was surely about to hit a losing streak.
He showed his cards, 56 points, or just 1 point, barely better than trash cards like 28, 37, 46.
The bald Banker chuckled, "Sorry, Boss Luo, looks like it’s getting light out. How about we play again next ti?"
"No way!"
Already pushed to the edge by his losses, Luo Yuantu, seeing the other guy winning and wanting to leave, abruptly stood up.
The Banker sneered and pointed to Luo Yuantu’s empty table, "Heh, Boss Luo, do you have any chips left?"
"None left, but I can borrow!"
Luo Yuantu roared, "You’re not allowed to leave today!"
As he spoke, he looked toward Wei Gang, "Boss Wei, lend so more."
Wei Gang yawned lazily, "Brother Luo, it’s not that I’m unwilling to lend you, but look, you’ve already borrowed seventy-eight million from . If we go on..."
"What!!!"
Hearing he was in the hole for seventy-eight million, Luo Yuantu instantly sobered up, "What did you just say, Boss Wei?"
"Brother Luo, seems like you have a short mory."
Wei Gang snapped his fingers, and Xiao Taohong walked over with seven or eight IOUs.
Looking at his own signature on the IOUs, Luo Yuantu felt a wave of despair.
He lifted his head, his cheeks twitching slightly, "Boss Wei, could you have made a mistake? I don’t think I borrowed that much, did I?"
"No?"
Wei Gang’s voice suddenly turned icy, "Brother Luo, with the evidence in black and white, do you think I would cheat you?"
"Are you thinking of welching on your debt?"
As his words fell, seven or eight n in black burst in from the entrance, ready to seize Luo Yuantu.
"Absolutely not!"
Seeing so many people co in, how could Luo Yuantu dare act tough? He swallowed his saliva and said, "I was just asking."
"That, can I borrow so more to turn things around?"
"Brother Luo, you seem pretty heated today, and I don’t think you can turn things around by continuing to gamble, so I won’t lend you the money,"
said Wei Gang with his arms crossed, indifferently. "According to the rules of the Grand Tycoon, you’ve borrowed seventy-eight million, and with principal and interest, that’s eighty-eight million. I’ll give you two days to transfer the money to my account."
"Any problem with that?"
Ten million in interest overnight?
Luo Yuantu was chilled to the bone, now, even if he were a fool, he could see that Wei Gang had set him up the night before.
He glanced at Xiao Taohong, swallowed hard, and said with difficulty, "Xiao Taohong, I’m a bit tired, can you take to my room for a shower?"
"Boss Luo, you’ve gambled all night and I’ve accompanied you all night; I’m already exhausted, I don’t have the energy to help you to your room." Xiao Taohong squinted, her tone icy, "It’s dawn, shouldn’t you go report to your wife?"
Just as expected!
With only a minimal test, Luo Yuantu confird that, indeed, it was Wei Gang who had set him up.
Thinking this, he couldn’t be bothered to pretend any longer, tearing off the pretense and snapping, "Wei Gang! Stop fucking pretending with !"
"You set this whole damn thing up!"
"Fuck your mother! Not only have I lost over fifty million from my account, but you made sign IOUs for over seventy million!"
"Do you believe I’ll call the cops right now, get your club raided, and have you locked up for more than a decade!"
"Calling the cops?" Wei Gang laughed, and his eyes narrowed into slits before suddenly widening as he bellowed, "Beat him! Beat him to death!"
Upon hearing this, the n in black charged forward, swinging their fists, as heavy as bags of sand, and furiously pumling Luo Yuantu.
Two minutes later, Luo Yuantu, bruised and swollen, was tossed out of the Grand Tycoon Water Club like trash.
Wei Gang wasn’t the least bit worried about Luo Yuantu calling the police. Firstly, there were people behind this sche, and he was going to shut down the gambling hall that very morning, so even if police ca, there was nothing they could do.
Secondly, knowing Luo Yuan’s timid nature, and having begged for rcy after just two minutes, Wei Gang had let out a harsh threat that if Luo Yuan dared to call the cops, he’d be crippled.
Luo Yuan struggled to his feet, shaky from standing up, his body worn down by an entire night of gambling.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
Just then, his cellphone rang, a call from his shrewish wife at ho.
"Hello, Luo Yuantu, where have you run off to? Why didn’t you co ho all night?"
On the other end of the phone, Chen Guihua scolded, "Speak up! Did you go chase after so little floozy?"
With his nerves already frayed, Luo Yuantu had been looking for an outlet for his frustration, and upon hearing his shrewish wife start haranguing him, he imdiately exploded, "Chen Guihua! Are you fucking out of your mind?! I’ve been drinking with clients all damn night for the company!"
"It’s bad enough you don’t care about , but you have the nerve to call first thing in the morning to curse out!"
"Fuck this, I can’t live like this anymore!!!"
