Five years ago, Gu Momo saved the Empire's richest man and was forced to conceive a child.
Five years later, she returned强势 with countless secret identities. Countless tyants knelt before...
These criminals have countless funds at their disposal, and they can spend lavishly, something that ordinary casinos simply cannot match.
Most importantly, he was adept at exploiting gamblers' psychology, making them switch back and forth between the thrill of winning and counting money and the fear of losing it. People are inherently greedy, and once they taste the sweetness of success, they will feel that they are very lucky.
But once he starts losing money, he becomes incredibly panicked, always thinking about winning back the money he's lost. But when he loses all his capital, that's when Ara's loan sharking industry comes into play.
"Sir, please place your bet."
Li Zhanting pushed the playing cards in front of him to Gu Momo, "You take a look."
Gu Momo shielded her eyes with her hand and carefully pulled up the cards. She wasn't very good at gambling and mostly relied on luck.
The community cards in the pot aren't very strong. Combined with the cards in her hand, the best she can get is a pair, so her chances of winning aren't high.
She leaned closer to Li Zhanting and whispered, "How much money can we afford to lose?"
"You can lose however you want."
Gu Momo chuckled, "So you're betting everything?"
Li Zhanting stretched out his long, slender hand and pushed all 50 million chips in front of him out, causing an uproar in the room. Even the dealer frowned, never expecting someone to play so high right away.
Players with bad hands all chose to forfeit, and as Gu Momo had guessed, the only ones left were the woman in the cheongsam, the man in the suit, and the young man who had lost so much that he was almost down to his underwear.
The young man seemed to be playing with the chips in his hand, but cold sweat was breaking out on his forehead from nervousness.
He was probably prepared to fight with his back against the wall, so he decisively waved to his staff and borrowed money to place a bet.
With both sides going all in, the other players at the table could choose to call or fold. The woman in the cheongsam and the man in the suit exchanged a glance and then folded. In the end, the young man narrowly defeated Li Zhanting with two pairs.
"Yes!" He clenched his fist excitedly, and instantly seemed to have a surge of fighting power. The dark circles under his eyes disappeared, and his eyebrows and eyes relaxed.
In the following rounds, Li Zhanting continued his losing streak, betting everything in almost every round and losing every single one. Before long, all 75 million US dollars had been poured in.
Just then, the dealer reminded him, "Sir, we do not allow debts. If you wish to continue playing, please raise your bet."
Then, he pushed the combination lock box over again.
"Shall we continue?" Li Zhanting turned to ask Gu Momo, as if the $75 million was nothing to him.
"You've lost so much, how about we win this round?"
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Li Zhanting chuckled, extended his slender fingers and lightly tapped the table, and soon a new batch of chips was delivered to the table.
When Li Zhanting got serious, his aura completely changed. In a 1v1 match against the young man, he scared him so much that he forfeited the game. Soon, he won back all the money he had lost.
After several rounds, Gu Momo gradually saw through the dealer's methods.
His card-dealing skills are indeed amazing; ordinary people can hardly see the flaws. However, by using the miniature camera on her earring to analyze the movements in slow motion, we can surely find evidence that he switched the cards silently.
Li Zhanting was once again the big winner at the poker table. He turned to look at Gu Momo and asked, "Is that enough?"
"That's about enough~" Gu Momo glanced at the chips on the table. After deducting her initial investment, she had won at least a few million.
"Then let's go?"
"Mm." Gu Momo nodded. The bigger the commotion they made, the more likely they were to draw out the mastermind behind this place!
Li Zhanting raised his hand to stop them and prepared to leave the casino with Gu Momo. What was curious was that almost everyone in the casino stopped and stared at them. Some of the gazes in the crowd made Gu Momo feel a chill down her spine.
Just as the two were about to reach the door, two bodyguards wearing black sunglasses suddenly stepped forward and blocked their way. "Gentlemen, please wait! Since you dared to win money here, our boss naturally wants to see you!"
Li Zhanting's eyes were dark and gloomy, his hands hanging at his sides clenched into fists, and a murderous intent filled the air.
The next moment, he and Gu Momo looked at each other and nodded vigorously in unison.
"Ah!" the bodyguard roared, suddenly pulling a pistol from his waistband: "You two bastards, die!"
Almost simultaneously, Li Zhanting kicked out, striking him hard in the chest!
As the bodyguard fell to the ground, the trigger had already been pulled, and the bullet pierced through the air with a "bang".
In an instant, chaos erupted at the scene. Li Zhanting grabbed Gu Momo, held her tightly, and rushed towards the door.
The two players were pushed towards the gate by the crowd, only to find that a group of assassins had already gathered there!
In addition, the leaders who controlled the underground banks were also stationed outside, each with a fierce expression.
"You bastards! How dare you cause such chaos at our bank! Arrest these two immediately!"
Just then, a subordinate rushed over in a panic: "It's terrible! There's also trouble behind the bank, and chaos has broken out there! Many of our men have suddenly been poisoned, and we're no match for them!"
"Report! Our equipment depot is on fire! The fire is spreading, and we can't save the equipment at all!"
"This is terrible! Everyone who left from here has been arrested! We're surrounded!"
"What did you say?!" The leaders, enraged and humiliated, threw their subordinates aside menacingly.
"You bunch of useless trash, what are you good for? How could you let so many people in? No... no, someone must have leaked the location of the underground bank and tipped off the people outside. It must have been those two! Kill them both!"
"yes!"
The leader was furious. The underground bank was the most important place for the wealthy merchant Ala to accumulate wealth. If something happened to it, it would greatly reduce the power of the wealthy merchant Ala, and the Emperor Killing Alliance would lose its most important treasury behind the scenes!
These bastards aren't just after the underground bank; they're probably after the Emperor-Killing Alliance!
Not far away, Li Zhanting could clearly see the situation outside. He grabbed Gu Momo's shoulder and said, "Let's go back into the casino!"
They had planned to sneak up the stairs, but the deserted casino was too conspicuous, and there weren't many places where Gu Momo and Li Zhanting could hide.
Just then, someone shouted, "There!"
All the casino assassins looked towards Gu Momo and Li Zhanting!
Once their location was locked, a hail of bullets instantly rained down on the two men.
"Watch out!" Li Zhanting pushed her behind the wall, a bullet grazed her ear, and she instantly smelled the burning smell coming from the wig.
Gunshots rang out continuously against the fence, and flames and smoke filled the sky.
Li Zhanting and Gu Momo drew their pistols to return fire. Even with their excellent marksmanship, they had no chance of breaking through the enemy's concentrated firepower and had to retreat to the last room in the corner.
Gu Momo narrowed her eyes sharply: "We still need to figure out a way to deal with these people! Otherwise, we might not be able to hold out until our brothers arrive to rescue us, or we'll already be meeting our maker!"
