Chapter 33: Gambling

With Zhou Fugui's departure, Guan Peng and Pauline were the only two people left at his table; and there were only three people left at the table opposite.

"Pauline, do you have any plans after the game? Do you want to come to my place for a drink?"

The game on the other side was still going on, and Guan Peng took this opportunity to invite Pauline. After all, boys should be more proactive.

"Wait until you beat me."

Seeing this arrogant look, Guan Peng knew that the deal was done, and the next step was to end the game cleanly and neatly.

"Mr. Guan Peng, Ms. Pauline, please take a seat."

The current game was finally over, and a Thai tycoon stood up and left. There was no frustration of failure on his face, and he left calmly.

Even if it was two against two, Guan Peng was a little superstitious, so he signaled the waiter to remove the loser's chair and move his own over.

Five green coins cleared the way, and the waiter was very considerate. After moving the chair, he even helped wipe the table where Guan Peng was about to sit.

"You're the guy who beat Pauline last time?"

As soon as Guan Peng sat down, a middle-aged man with a mustache who was already seated pointed at him and asked.

"Who are you?" Seeing that this guy had a bad tone, Guan Peng naturally wouldn't give him a good look.

"Pauline doesn't know who I am. I am Adrien, the French gambling god."

The arrogant Frenchman was angry and felt slighted.

"Isn't the French gambling god Pierre Cashon? When did he change his name?"

Guan Peng did it on purpose. Pauline and Adrien didn't understand the joke, but another guest on the scene obviously got it because he laughed out loud.

"Who is Pierre Cashon? Who allowed him to be called the French God of Gamblers without my consent?" Seeing Guan Peng's serious tone, Adrien thought that this person really existed.

"Pierre Cashon is a fictional movie character. Is this guy kidding you?"

The person who spoke was the guest who had laughed out loud just now. His name was He Huan, a real estate businessman from Hong Kong. He went to the gambling table just for fun, and then he was really amused.

There are rules for martial arts competitions, with one hand holding the other horizontally and the other vertically, the winner stands up and the loser lies down; it is similar in card gambling, no matter how powerful one talks, it still depends on winning or losing, the winner sits down and the loser leaves.

"It seems like luck is on my side, 100 million"

The game started. After two cards were dealt in the first round, Pauline said proudly that the Ace of Spades was on the face.

"Follow" (He Huan)

"Accompany You" (Guan Peng)

"Follow" (Adrien)

Only two cards were dealt and it was the first round, so no one gave in.

"Flush, I'm the one who speaks, 200 million"

Pauline's third card was the King of Spades. If Guan Peng hadn't seen through her hole card which was the Ten of Hearts, she would have had a flush in her hand.

Do you want to follow?

Guan Peng had two Kings on the face of the cards and the 10 of spades in the bottom card. He looked at Adrien and He Huan's cards and saw three Nines, a pair of Queens and an Ace of Hearts respectively.

"A straight flush in the first round, I don't believe it anyway, I'll follow you for 200 million"

He Huan, who has watched Hong Kong gambling movies for many years, just refuses to believe it.

"Sacrifice your life to accompany a gentleman"

Guan Peng has already figured out how to end the battle quickly.

"I don't believe it either. I'll give you 200 million." Adrien, who had three nines in his hand, would naturally not be scared.

The dealer did not do anything, and the next cards dealt out from the card shoe were exactly the same as what Guan Peng had seen originally.

"200"

Pauline's fourth card was the Queen of Spades, a perfect flush, and she planned to go all out.

"200 million with you"

He Huan got the last Q, and he planned to try to get the Q full house.

"Follow all three Qs. I have three Ks and there is no reason to run away. I will follow you for 200 million."

Guan Peng, who got the third K, also followed suit.

"Play with you guys"

The one who spoke was Adrien. He had already received his fourth 9, but there was no trace of pride on his face.

The dealer began the last round of dealing: the Jack of Spades, the Ace of Diamonds, the Ten of Diamonds, and the King of Hearts. The four cards were dealt to Pauline, He Huan, Guan Peng, and Adrien respectively.

"I'm all in"

Pauline was full of confidence. She was betting that the other party would be scared away by her and that he did not have a gourd; but her fantasy was immediately shattered.

"I'm with you. I have a Q Hulu. Show me your Straight Flush."

The one who spoke was He Huan, with a look of disbelief.

"Q Hulu wants to see a straight flush, which is not appropriate, I want K Hulu"

The person who spoke was Guan Peng, and he also revealed his cards.

"You guys are too naive to think you can win with just the gourd. Look at my iron sticks."

Adrien couldn't wait to show his hole card, the nine of spades, and then began to taunt.

"It's really a rival card. The French gambling god really lives up to his reputation. I admire him."

Guan Peng looked like he was convinced after being beaten.

"As long as you know"

Adrien was very proud. He enjoyed the look of his opponent being convinced by his defeat.

"But Pauline hasn't shown her cards yet. Don't you believe she can show a straight flush?"

Guan Peng, who was bleeding profusely, did not just want to make the beauty smile, he also wanted to see the moment of being slapped in the face.

"Impossible. I know Pauline's style. She can't possibly..."

"Straight Flush, it looks like I'm the final winner"

Face slapping moment

The person who spoke was Pauline, who had been silent since Guan Peng showed his cards. She then showed her hole card, which was Guan Peng's original hole card, the 10 of spades.

Zhou Xingzu - special ability (no side effects)

Guan Peng used the 10000 points he had just earned to exchange for new skills in the points mall.

"I thought it was just a gambling movie, but I didn't expect this kind of rivalry would actually happen in real life. I am convinced, convinced."

He Huan said it was an eye-opener and then left with a smile.

"shit"

Compared to He Huan, Adrien was a little unconvinced, but he also left cursing.

"Why, you're not happy about winning?"

Everyone in the room left, leaving only Guan Peng and Pauline. Seeing that she looked worried, Guan Peng started to joke.

"You bad guy, can you tell me how you did it?"

Curiosity kills the cat, let alone a female gambler like Pauline.

"This is my family's secret. I won't tell her to anyone else."

Guan Peng did not deny it, but started to pretend to be ignorant.

"Ordinary people? Am I an ordinary person?"

Knowing Guan Peng's weakness, Pauline began to use her advantage and pressed her whole body against him.

"I'm a scumbag, aren't you afraid of being scumbaged by me again?"

Guan Peng is a hypocrite but his body is upright. If it weren't for the unsuitable venue, he would have taken action.

"Go to my room"

Pauline took the initiative to invite Guan Peng, so there was no reason for him to refuse.

…………

508

Pauline's suite was very luxurious. Guan Peng scanned the area with his golden eyes. It wasn't that he didn't trust her, but he was afraid that she would be cheated.

OK, knowing that they are all high-level customers, no one will play tricks in this regard.

"What are you looking at?"

Pauline noticed Guan Peng's little trick.

“I am looking at the decoration of the room, it is quite nice”

Guan Peng covered up.

"What's so good about this house? Is it as beautiful as me?"

Adrien was living in room 509 next to Pauline; he was already in a bad mood after losing money, and now after hearing the cheerful voice from the other party, he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone; last time someone told him that Pauline was spending the night in a Chinese man's room, he didn't believe it, but this time he didn't need anyone to tell him.

"Shit, this couple, Pauline is a bitch"

Living next door is meant to have more contact and win everyone's heart, but...

Adrien felt like he had paid for a green hat.

Chapter 34 Planning a Breakup

The next morning, Guan Peng woke up on time as usual; he patted Pauline's butt and saw that she was still sleeping in a daze, recalling yesterday's experience.

I was careless. Lust was really a sword hanging over my head. I took advantage of Pauline's weak willpower to use my special ability to erase part of her memory and also gave her some psychological hints.

All time travelers have some paranoia, and Guan Peng used his insight skill on Pauline again.

Pauline

Constitution: 90 (full value 100, healthy)

Appearance: 88 (full value 100, charming)

Favorability: 95 (full value 100, love, worship, loyalty)

Skills learned: Master-level gambling skills, proficiency in French.

The favorability rating of 95 made Guan Peng feel a little safe. He decided not to do it again. After thinking for a while, just as he was about to leave, the noise of Pauline getting up woke her up.

"Honey, are you leaving again?"

Pauline held Guan Peng's hand.

"I'm a prodigal son and I can't make any promises to you. Why don't you just forget me?"

What a scumbag, he starts to disrespect me before he even puts on his pants.

"I don't need any promises, just remember to come find me when you think of me?"

"I don't deserve your kindness?"

Seeing that Pauline didn't ask for much, Guan Peng felt a little ashamed.

"It's worth it. You are God and my Lord."

Upon hearing this, Guan Peng knew that the psychological suggestion from yesterday had worked;

For morning exercise, Guan Peng used to do it on the treadmill in the cruise ship gym, but this time he planned to make an exception.

"shit"

Adrien, who had barely fallen asleep at three in the morning, was woken up next door. He now understood why Pauline fell in love with the Chinese man. Youth is an asset.

The morning exercise was extended from the original 40 minutes to one hour. After an hour, Guan Peng, feeling refreshed, still chose to leave; this time Pauline did not hold his hand because she had no strength left.
