The Wealth God System Descended from Heaven, Sister Went Wild in High Society

Su Ran went to collect her monthly salary but was unexpectedly shortchanged by her manager? For Su Ran, she simply quit on the spot, considering the withheld wages as a down payment for his coffin!...

Chapter 263 A Challenge in the Casino

Manager Qian asked himself this question, and the answer he ultimately received was undoubtedly no.

The assistant, his face flushed, stepped off the gambling table. After all, the other party had stated his number, but he couldn't say the number the other party had rolled.

This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him; in the case of guarding the museum, he lost as the guard.

Thinking back to the arrival of the mysterious man, she had initially looked down on him, but she never expected that she would be completely defeated as soon as he arrived.

However, he had to admit defeat. He really couldn't guess correctly, and he didn't even know what number he had drawn. In this respect, the assistant knew that he was no match for Manager Qian.

His gambling skills were taught to him by Manager Qian. When he was learning this skill, he was impatient and got scolded countless times.

Su Ran leaned back slightly, her gaze towards the mysterious man becoming more scrutinizing. The mysterious man met Su Ran's gaze, a slight smile playing on his lips as he raised the champagne glass in his hand.

Su Ran watched the mysterious man's actions and also slightly raised the champagne on another table.

"Cheers!"

Su Ran understood the man's lip movements and replied. Manager Qian, who was sitting next to her, also sat down in the assistant's seat and looked at the mysterious man in front of her.

If the assistant loses, someone has to step up, and that person is him.

"Sir, your dice-listening skills are excellent."

The mysterious man nodded slightly. "Blackjack."

After the mysterious man finished speaking, he leaned back in his chair, looked sharply at Manager Qian, and didn't say anything more.

Su Ran crossed her arms and looked at the mysterious man. Blackjack, also known as Twenty-One, originated in the land of romance and later spread to all parts of the world, with a long history.

The game is played by 2 to 6 people using 52 cards excluding the Jokers. The goal of the players is to make the sum of the cards in their hand not exceed 21 and to make it as high as possible.

The two started playing cards.

Manager Qian was shuffling the cards, and his shuffling skills were superb. He simply moved his hands across the table a few times and finished shuffling the cards.

His card skills were quite good, but in the eyes of the man opposite him, they were nothing special.

Su Ran watched as Manager Qian respectfully picked up a white card and handed it to the mysterious man. Manager Qian's actions showed that he was several levels above the assistant.

So Manager Qian does have some gambling skills, but it's uncertain whether he can beat the person opposite him.

This is a rule in casino poker, because they are afraid that skilled players will use calculations to win money.

So many years ago, Macau gambling tycoon Stanley Ho came up with this idea: increase one deck of cards to four decks, and then give the player a blank card to randomly select a position.

When the cards are dealt to the white card, the remaining cards are discarded and need to be shuffled again.

Of course, most legitimate casinos nowadays use eight decks of cards.

The mysterious man caught the white card and casually tossed it aside. The white card drew a beautiful arc in the air and gracefully landed among the playing cards. Su Ran watched the two men's actions, then looked at Manager Qian and shook her head slightly.

This game.

Manager Qian lost.

The mysterious man is destined to win.

The mysterious man picked up the chips and casually tossed them on the table. He smiled slightly and gestured for the cards to be dealt. Manager Qian suppressed his shock and proceeded to deal the cards.

He already knew the outcome, but his position did not allow him to admit defeat now.

The first card dealt was to the mysterious person. The playing card was flipped over in Manager Qian's hand, revealing a Queen of Diamonds, which was then handed over.

Manager Qian then dealt himself a card, took one out of the card box, and flipped it over. It was a tiny card with a value of one or two.

Su Ran raised an eyebrow, looked at Manager Qian, and shook her head with a smile. The person opposite her was very skilled at gambling. She then continued to deal cards, and the third card was an Ace, which was dealt to the mysterious man.

The mysterious man made up the blackjack, which is also known as 20-20.

An ace can be considered as one point or as eleven points, depending entirely on the player's mood.

Even if Manager Qian manages to get another 20, he will still lose. Manager Qian accepted this calmly when he saw the cards.

He wasn't afraid of losing; this game had shown him a lot. He still needed to practice his gambling skills, and he was willing to accept defeat in this round.

He threw his cards on the table, looked at the mysterious man, and said, "I lost. You're very strong."

The mysterious man leaned back and chuckled. "You're quite frank, a real character. So, is there anyone in this casino with better gambling skills than you? Call them out and let's play a couple of rounds together."

The man came here to challenge the other side and prove himself; he didn't care about the other's feelings, as long as he won.

Manager Qian smiled slightly and said, "Sir, there are many people who are better at gambling than me. I am just a nobody. Many people are better than me."

The mysterious man smiled, shook his head, and downed the champagne in his glass in one gulp. "Lin Peisheng."

Manager Qian understood the man's meaning, and then raised his champagne glass and shouted, "Qian Dali!"

Su Ran rested her chin on her hand and looked at the two of them. She took a sip of the Longjing tea in her cup and then got up to leave. Su Qingjiu followed behind her.

"Miss, do you know her?"

He had seen their actions before and assumed that the man with good gambling skills was an old acquaintance of the young lady.

Su Ran shook her head. "I don't know him, but his gambling skills are indeed excellent. Manager Qian's little tricks are nothing in Lin Peisheng's eyes."

She wouldn't have been able to tell before, but with the system's reward, it's not hard for her to see it now.

Su Qingjiu didn't understand the intricacies of the matter, but Lin Peisheng gave off the impression of being a profound and unfathomable person, so she quite agreed with what her young lady said.

"Miss, do you want me to investigate that man?"

Su Ran shook her head. "No need."

Su Ran had no particular feelings for Lin Peisheng. They were from two different worlds, so there was no need to force themselves to get along. Sometimes, it was best to just let things take their course.

Su Qingjiu nodded. "Miss, what would you like to play?"

Su Ran looked around and pointed to a spot.

Seeing this, Su Yi stepped forward. Thanks to the lure of money, she managed to get a good seat. "Miss, want to play Texas Hold'em?"

Upon hearing the voice, Su Ran nodded.

There were five or six people at the table. After Su Ran sat down, the card game began. The dealer was a man, who was also the banker.

Su Ran looked at the three cards she was dealt. She was lucky; she got a flush of Ace, Jack, and 10 of clubs.

The foreign man sitting next to Su Ran had a bit of bad luck; he dealt a flush of King, 9, and 7 of Spades.

The dealer was quick, but Su Ran was even faster.

However, everyone was behaving normally in this game and no one was cheating, so she didn't move her cards and just sat in her chair watching the people around her.

A foreign man said rather angrily, "I've lost several games today, I refuse to believe I'll lose this one too!"

The foreign man was a gambler, but he believed that Lady Luck would smile upon him.
