Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

Lizhi had already moved the box over and piled up the chips in front of Lin Cheng. There were a full 100 million chips, piled up high like a small mountain.

"I'm fine with either. It depends on what you want to play." Lin Cheng replied with a smile.

"I can do either, it's up to you."

"Okay, okay. Before that, I would like to ask you a question, Miss Xu Wanyue."

"Ok?"

"Do you think... gambling is a game of luck?" Lin Cheng smiled and looked into her eyes.

Xu Wanyue tilted her head, "Isn't it?"

"That's good."

Lin Cheng pushed one of the two dice cups on the table in front of Xu Wanyue, "Then let's roll the dice to compare the numbers. Each of us has five dice. The largest number is thirty, and the smallest number is five."

Xu Wanyue frowned slightly. "What's the point of playing a game where I have no way of knowing for sure whether you are cheating or not? I heard that gamblers who have undergone long-term training can easily shake out any number they want."

"I understand your concerns." Lin Cheng tapped the table lightly with his fingertips. "So, you will roll my dice as well. We will only compare the total sum of the points on our dice. The one with the largest number wins. If there is a tie, we will move on to the next round. The stakes for each round are 10 million."

Xu Wanyue stared at Lin Cheng in front of her seriously for several seconds with a strange expression.

"you sure?"

"You can check the dice. You can shake the two sets of dice at will, and even freely choose one of them after you shake them. I will default to the remaining one. Of course, if you have other requests, you can also put them forward at the same time."

Xu Wanyue had only one concern. She raised her head slightly and bit her lip. "If I win all your chips, can I walk out of here alive?"

"Of course, the alliance behind you is our loyal partner. How could we attack our friends? Besides, attacking gamblers is also against the rules."

Lin Cheng leaned forward slightly, interlaced his fingers together, and stared into her eyes without blinking.

"Okay." Xu Wanyue narrowed her eyes slightly, "Let's start. Let me see... where your confidence comes from."

05 Trembling

The gambling game officially begins.

Xu Wanyue handed over her bank card to Lizhi in exchange for chips. At the moment, there were a total of 30 million chips in front of her, which seemed a little shabby compared to Lin Cheng's 100 million. Even though Xu Wanyue was extremely confident, her breathing subconsciously became a little rapid.

For such a high stakes gamble, the atmosphere at this moment seems more like a child's play.

Thirty million versus one hundred million, she only has three chances to lose, while Lin Cheng has ten chances to lose. In terms of probability, Lin Cheng has a greater chance of winning, but as Xu Wanyue answered just now, gambling is a game of luck.

In the first round, Xu Wanyue picked up the two dice cups, shook them separately, and placed them on the table. She looked into Lin Cheng's eyes and said, "I'll give you the first choice in this round. Which one do you want?"

Lin Cheng chose the one on the left and opened it. The total of the five dice was 23. He laughed suddenly, not trying to hide the pride in his tone, "It seems that I have a good chance of winning."

But his pride did not last more than three seconds, because Xu Wanyue opened another set of dice and it showed twenty-four.

The smugness on Lin Cheng's face faded a little, and he pushed the 10 million chips in front of Xu Wanyue. Lizhi stood calmly beside the gambling table, her eyes showing no worry or loss.

As long as the boss takes action, he will never lose.

..............................

The second round of gambling begins.

Two sets of shaken dice were placed on the table. Xu Wanyue held her cheek with her hand and looked at Lin Cheng, "I will still give you the chance to choose first this time."

Lin Cheng chose the one on the right and opened it. It was six o'clock.

His face suddenly turned bitter. Xu Wanyue opened her dice cup. It was twelve.

Lin Cheng could only take out another 10 million chips and throw them to Xu Wanyue.

In the third round of gambling, Xu Wanyue still gave Lin Cheng the opportunity to choose first, and Lin Cheng lost.

In the fourth round of gambling, Lin Cheng lost.

In the fifth round of gambling, Lin Cheng lost.

There were still 50 million chips left in front of Lin Cheng, while on Xu Wanyue's side, the number of chips had reached 80 million, piled up like a small mountain. But even so, her expression did not change at all, and she did not look very happy.

There wasn't much disappointment on Lin Cheng's face.

Those who win money are unhappy, and those who lose money are not sad. This is definitely the weirdest scene at the gambling table.

"Do you want to continue?" Xu Wanyue looked at him calmly, "I give you the right to stop the gambling."

"Why not?" Lin Cheng picked up the Coke bottle on the table and took a big sip until the bottle was empty. He burped, "Actually, you feel bored too, right?"

"It's really boring to win all the time." Xu Wanyue didn't even raise her eyelashes, and there was a hint of contempt in her tone. Perhaps the only thing that could make her happy was the number of 50 million.

"There's no fun in gambling at all." Lin Cheng sighed softly.

Xu Wanyue raised her eyes and said, "You lost 50 million to your boss. Shouldn't you first consider how you are going to survive after tonight?"

Lin Cheng laughed, "No, Lizhi is a good girl."

Xu Wanyue was stunned for a moment. She thought... Lin Cheng was really just a master called by Lizhi to participate in the gambling game on her behalf. After all, she did not sense any energy fluctuations from Lin Cheng. He was just an ordinary person.

But now, judging from Lizhi's helpless expression after he said this, it seems... his status is not limited to this.

The atmosphere became a little weird. Xu Wanyue shook the dice cup on the table. "So, you mean to continue?"

"Ah."

"You choose first." Lin Cheng said lightly.

In the sixth round of gambling, Lin Cheng scored 15 points, Xu Wanyue scored 17 points, and Lin Cheng lost.

In the seventh round of gambling, Lin Cheng had 13 points, Xu Wanyue had 30 points, and Lin Cheng lost.

At this moment, there were only 30 million chips left in front of Lin Cheng, while the chips in front of Xu Wanyue had reached 100 million. The positions of the two at the gambling table began to switch. Xu Wanyue glanced at Lizhi, but Lizhi's expression did not change at all. She remembered that night at the gambling table, even though Lizhi concealed it well, she was still gritting her teeth after losing five million. But why did she look so calm at this moment?

Lin Cheng played with the chips on the table and looked up at Xu Wanyue. "If you want, I'll give you the right to stop the gambling. Now you can go downstairs and exchange the 100 million chips for cash and leave."

Xu Wanyue looked a little surprised.

what is this?

"Are you scared?" Xu Wanyue curled the corners of her lips.

I have to say that beautiful women always have a charm that makes people dazed when they smile.

Lin Cheng did not feel the humiliation of being mocked. He just smiled helplessly, "You are not a professional gambler. In the gambling industry, you can only be considered an entry-level person. At first, you did not have that much confidence, so the way you gambled on the first day you came here was the safest way. From the second day, you started to compete with other gamblers. The clothes you wore also changed. You wore something a little sexier. Men will always subconsciously be less defensive against beautiful women. You are a girl who is a little smart and knows how to use your advantages. After making some money, you became more and more confident, and at the same time, you became tired of it."

"A bet that you can't lose is boring." Lin Cheng sighed softly, "I thought there would be leg rings to see today."

Xu Wanyue had a strange expression on his face. Why did his speaking style suddenly change to this?

"If you want, you can leave now with the 100 million chips, but you can't come to this casino again from now on. This kind of compensation is definitely generous."

"What if I don't want to go?"

"It's not good to be too greedy." Lin Cheng laughed.

"No, I'm just betting... I won't lose next time."

"What if I tell you that you won't be able to win next time?"

"I don't believe it." Xu Wanyue's eyes finally brightened a little. She looked at Lin Cheng in front of her with amusement. She didn't understand where his confidence came from, but she had absolute confidence.

"Then if I win all your chips, you must play the next game with me." Lin Cheng lowered his voice a bit, "Do you accept it?"

"What's the next bet?"

"It hasn't even started yet, and you're already worried about losing? If so... you'll be abandoned by the God of Luck." Lin Cheng said playfully.

It was clearly just an unintentional remark, but at this moment Xu Wanyue suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in her heart. While uneasiness brings fear, fear also brings... excitement.

Her eyes had become extremely bright, as if she had woken up. "I want to know...how will you win?"

The eighth round of gambling officially began, and Xu Wanyue was still the one rolling the dice. She even looked at Lin Cheng with contempt and said, "I still give you the right to choose first."

"The one on the left, then."

Xu Wanyue opened the dice cup, and the sum of the points on the dice was twenty-nine.

Lin Cheng smiled and looked at Xu Wanyue in front of him, "How about surrendering and losing half?"

But Xu Wanyue's face did not show any regret. She calmly opened her dice cup and said, "If I'm thirty..."

Her voice stopped abruptly.

Because the number in her dice cup was 28, just a little less than Lin Cheng's, she lost.

Xu Wanyue looked at the dice cup in astonishment. It was clearly a very high score, but she was stunned for several seconds. When she looked up, she happened to see Lin Cheng's indifferent smile.

Lin Cheng's eyes were not looking at her eyes, but at her slender collarbone that was not covered by the white tank top. It seemed that because of the heat, the collarbone was now a little wet, and slightly astringent.

The feeling of uneasiness filled her heart again, and she began to call out to Lucky, but Lucky did not respond to her... Damn, why did it have to be at this time?

The next round of gambling began soon. This time she chose the dice cup first. When she opened the dice cup, it showed twenty-nine points, a number that was almost certain to win.

A bad premonition spread in Xu Wanyue's heart at this moment. She opened Lin Cheng's dice cup, but when it came right, her cheeks suddenly turned pale.

Thirty o'clock.

Lin Cheng still wins this round.

The next round of the game begins again.

Xu Wanyue's expression gradually changed, from the initial indifference and contempt to the current astonishment and panic. In fact, it was only a few minutes. Lizhi, who was standing aside, finally raised the corner of her lips.

Xu Wanyue shook the dice cup again. She seemed a little crazy and bit her lips lightly, but this time, Lin Cheng's points were still slightly higher than hers.

At this moment, Lin Cheng's voice sounded just right, "I told you, you won't win again."

"Are you very proud?" Xu Wanyue looked up at him.

"Shouldn't I be proud?" Lin Cheng spread his hands innocently.

Xu Wanyue's chest rose and fell with her breathing. Lin Cheng's gaze fell on her without any concealment. This scrutinizing look made Xu Wanyue feel more and more... humiliated.

She shook the dice cup again, but the result was still... loss.

Once, twice, three times, five times.

The result was the same every time. No matter how she activated her abilities, no matter how she called for "luck", luck never responded to her. Lin Cheng's points were always a little higher than hers, and all the chips in front of her had been lost.

But it was after she lost all her chips that she suddenly realized that the "luck" that she had been calling for but had not received a response, now enveloped her again.

Her luck would not be so kind to her for a few minutes every month, and she had obviously fallen into such a situation just now, but at this moment, her luck was back.

But all the chips in front of her have been piled in front of Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng looked at Litchi eagerly, "You can touch it now..."

Lizhi reached out and smacked him on the head, her cheeks slightly reddened, and her tone contained a hint of vicious warning, "Not now."

"Roger that!"

Lin Cheng looked at Xu Wanyue in front of him and stretched, "Okay, now it's time for you to play the next game with me."

It took Xu Wanyue more than ten seconds to finally wake up from the continuous failures just now. She crossed her arms and stared at Lin Cheng in front of her, "What do you want to play with me?"

"Two people can play... it's very exciting... you might sweat a lot... forget it, it's too depressing." Lin Cheng reached out and knocked on his head, as if he was helping Lizhi.

He looked at Litchi, "Are you ready?"

"Ready." Lizhi's smile looked sinister.

Lizhi placed a revolver that could hold six bullets on the gambling table.

Lin Cheng smiled and looked at Xu Wanyue in front of him, "You don't need me to teach you the rules, right?"

Xu Wanyue was stunned at first, but when she looked into Lin Cheng's eyes, Lin Cheng's eyes had lost their previous playfulness and tenderness, and now became somewhat profound, and his voice seemed to reveal a slight chill.

Xu Wanyue's body suddenly began to tremble uncontrollably.

06 Walking into a Trap

"The Alliance's special explosive bullets can kill even an A-level ability user in the head at close range."

Lin Cheng picked up the exquisite revolver on the table. This was not an equipment of the Alliance, but something that Lizhi bought from the black market. A bullet was also placed on the table by Lizhi.

The atmosphere finally became solemn again at this moment.
