Chapter 75 It’s ok, don’t be afraid
The other guests were all stunned when they saw this.
Why is this guy playing such a big game? Should they follow him or not?
It's just a few thousand taels, not something he can't afford to lose, but seeing how boldly this kid acts, he seems very confident.
If you follow, you will lose a lot. If you don’t follow or follow too little, it will be embarrassing.
The dealer was also sweating a little at this time, "Sir, why don't you bet a little less?"
"I won't!" Shen Yue looked at Xiao Yuheng, "Doesn't the rule say we can't bet two thousand taels?"
Xiao Yuheng smiled and shook his head, "No, on the third floor, there's no upper limit on the bet amount."
"That's it, isn't it? Are you guys going down or not?"
After Shen Yue said this, the guests felt a little embarrassed and threw the silver bills up reluctantly.
Some smart ones followed her and bet on the "big" side.
At this moment, a man dressed in Northern Chu clothing pulled out a thick stack of banknotes and slapped it on the word "small". "Open it!"
"Wait a moment!"
Shen Yue looked at the man, then at the dice cup, slowly clenched her fists, and the smile on her face faded.
If she heard correctly, the man had just used his inner force to shake the table, and the dice had already changed to "small."
"What's the matter, little brother?"
The man from Beichu showed an ambiguous smile in his narrow eyes. He came to Shen Yue's chair, pressed the table with one hand, and leaned over slightly.
Shen Yue ignored him and secretly placed her palm on the table, using her internal force to gently spin the dice.
I turned it over once, it was wrong, I turned it over twice, it was still wrong.
She was a little anxious.
Stock gambling is really not fun, she never wants to play it again, woo woo.
The man from Northern Chu didn't get angry when he saw that she ignored him. He just looked at her fair and smooth neck and licked his dry lips.
"If you want to regret it, you can follow me."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and touched Shen Yue's shoulders and neck.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuheng's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light. He quickly stood up, grabbed his wrist and squeezed it hard.
“Crack!”
The wrist bone shattered.
The man from Beichu screamed in pain, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.
He held his right wrist with his left hand and trembled.
"As the Prince of Daqi, can you hurt others for no reason?"
Shen Yue was concentrating on listening to the direction of the dice. When she heard the voice behind her, she turned around in confusion, "Prince?"
Xiao Yuheng raised his hand to hold the side of her face and turned her head back, "It's okay, don't be afraid."
No, who’s afraid?
Shen Yue bit her lip and glanced at him secretly, then stopped worrying about it and sat back at the table to cheat.
Flip it over twice more and it should be about right.
Xiao Yuheng looked at the man from Northern Chu, his eyes as cold as the winter wind:
"Whether I hurt you for no reason or for a reason, you must know it clearly. If you still want to do business with Daqi in the future, then put away those little thoughts of yours. If not, I will do as you wish today and throw you back to Northern Chu. You will never be allowed to enter the border of Daqi again!"
The man's face turned pale when he heard this. He looked away timidly and whispered:
"I apologize for any offense I've caused you today. Your Highness, Prince Cheng, is very magnanimous. Please don't hold it against me..."
Xiao Yuheng ignored him, turned around and sat back in his chair, and said to the dealer: "Open!"
The dealer came to his senses, replied "yes" with a trembling voice, and reached for the dice cup cover.
Seeing this, Shen Yue immediately showed an anxious look on her face, but she didn't dare to speak loudly, so she had to move closer to him and whisper:
"No, I'm still one step away from winning. I'm definitely going to lose..."
After hearing what she said, Xiao Yuheng finally smiled faintly on his cold face. He lowered his head and leaned close to her ear, "Listen carefully."
He placed his right hand lightly on the table, and an invisible internal force instantly went along the table towards the dice cup.
Shen Yue didn't even notice any vibration on the table, and the dice in the dice cup quietly changed positions.
The lid of the dice cup was opened at this moment. "Five, six, six, big!"
Accompanied by a few cheers and a lot of heartbroken sighs, a large amount of banknotes were delivered to Shen Yue.
Shen Yue stared blankly at the banknotes, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. "Have we won already?"
"What else?"
Xiao Yuheng smiled gently and tapped her head with his fingers. "Don't even mention five thousand taels here, we already have eight thousand taels. Are you still playing?"
"No, no more playing."
She doesn't want to go through this kind of experience of jumping off a building again.
Shen Yue patted her chest to calm her excited heart, put the banknotes in her pocket, and stood up holding Xiao Yuheng's arm.
"Go, my lord, and divide the money!"
In the carriage, Shen Yue secretly glanced at Xiao Yuheng's face while dividing the banknotes into two piles.
"One for you, one for me. One for me, one for me. One for you, one for me..."
She engaged in corruption openly like this, and Xiao Yuheng did not expose her. He just held his chin and looked at her with interest.
"Where do you want to go tomorrow? I heard there's a big play going on in the Pear Garden tomorrow called 'Havoc in Heaven'. Would you mind if I could take you to see it?"
"Ah? Still going?"
Shen Yue raised her head in confusion, and took two more banknotes and put them into her own stack.
Xiao Yuheng looked at her stack of banknotes, which was obviously much larger than his own, and smiled and shook his head, "Didn't you say you were afraid of being bored?"
Shen Yue heard this, and her hands trembled as she counted the money. "I, I was just saying it casually."
Besides, just because she said she was bored, he took her out. What's the logic behind this?
Could it be that Xiao Yuheng has finally come to his senses and realized that "a drop of blood should be repaid with a spring of gratitude"?
Looking at Shen Yue's slightly flustered eyes, Xiao Yuheng was silent for a moment, then said, "Actually, there is a reason why I want to take you out."
"What's the reason?"
"After returning from Paradise Island that day, I discovered that the study had been disturbed."
"Study..." Shen Yue stopped counting the money.
"Could it be that there are other traitors within the First and Fourth Departments, and that someone wants to steal the prince's brocade box?"
"Yeah!" Xiao Yuheng nodded frantically.
"That must be the case. That's why I've set up a trap in the secret room so that when the thief comes, he can be captured in one fell swoop."
Shen Yue suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Then let's go out tomorrow. If it doesn't work out tomorrow, we can go out the day after tomorrow. We'll catch him one day!"
"Yeah!" Xiao Yuheng nodded frantically again.
"Then it's settled. I'll continue to divide the money. You get one, I get one, and I get one..."
Seeing that Shen Yue said nothing more, Xiao Yuheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He actually lied in order to get Shen Er out of the house.
There was no way, who made him get so close to Sijin? He was really worried.
As long as Shen Er is not in the mansion all day, it won’t be long before they gradually become distant from each other, right?
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuheng was really shocked by his own bad thoughts.
But there was no other way, he had to do this in order to keep Shen Er by his side.
Shen Er, ah Shen Er, just stay by my side and don’t go anywhere.
