Chapter 56 Winning Back the Stakes!



Chapter 56 Winning Back the Stakes!

The sound of dice rolling rang out.

Su Jingge swallowed, and Xiao Linyuan beside her gently placed his hand on her shoulder, looking down at her.

Her eyes were calm and undisturbed.

She knew it was to comfort her and tell her not to be nervous.

"The dealer goes first!"

Qian Que looked at the size, but hesitated to make a move.

Although she had already won four games, she still felt a vague unease in her heart, as if someone was putting her on a fire and roasting her over a small fire.

It won't kill you, but it's incredibly difficult to endure.

The tormenting feeling made her panic.

She wasn't afraid of Su Jingge.

Instead, she became even more afraid of the commander beside her.

Throughout all four rounds, he smiled at Su Jingge, his eyes filled with an indescribable tenderness.

It was as if they were giving her the greatest support.

And Su Jingge could trust him so much.

But there was no one behind her.

There was once someone who believed in her so much, standing beside her...

Until she later met her godfather, Ning Zhutian.

She absolutely cannot lose; if she loses, he will be disappointed, and she will definitely not let him down!

Definitely not!

For the first time, I felt a fear of having no one behind me to rely on.

She raised her hand and then lowered it.

He raised it, but hesitated to put it down.

Su Jingge looked at Qian Que Niangzi, who had been very confident until the fifth round, but the situation was quite different.

It's not like going to war, but it's even more agonizing than fighting a war. This is the greatest psychological strategy against people.

"What's wrong, Lady Qianque? Are you hesitating?"

Qian Que was restless, but then she heard Shen Yan warn her in a low voice, "You absolutely cannot lose! If you lose, you'll have no home left!"

These words struck her like a bolt from the blue, thundering in her heart.

It's like being on a lone boat in the vast, boundless ocean, only to be caught in a raging storm.

Fear rose in my heart like a mountain.

She absolutely cannot lose.

'smack'

Her hand landed on the table. She closed her eyes tightly, her forehead covered in sweat. Her hand slowly moved along the table, pushing towards that 'large' boundary.

'The bettor is on!'

Su Jingge frowned slightly, her fingertips feeling cool.

She glanced at Xiao Linyuan and noticed that the man's lips curved slightly and he blinked gently.

Her eyes sparkled with nervousness.

At that moment, it felt like a spring breeze was blowing through her heart.

Her brows slowly relaxed, and a confident smile returned as she looked at herself reflected in her pupils.

Life is a gamble.

Since you've started, don't be afraid to lose!

Trust your teammates!

Trust Xiao Linyuan!

"I accept whatever comes, win or lose," Su Jingge said softly.

Xiao Linyuan nodded and looked at Xiao.

Su Jingge clenched her hand, picked up the stack of items, and pressed it down on the small one.

Everyone held their breath and stared intently.

My heart was pounding.

"open!"

Su Jingge stared at the number, her pupils dilating in shock: "Eleven points, small!"

She laughed out loud: "Little one, the stake is back!"

"The stake is back!"

She looked at Xiao Linyuan, who smiled and nodded at her, giving her a thumbs up: "Great!"

Looking at Chen Yan again, his eyes trembled, and suddenly his nerves tensed up to the extreme.

He looked at Qian Que with cold eyes.

"You lost a round, Qian! Que!"

The sound wasn't loud, but it exploded in Qian Que's mind!

The small boat was capsized by the huge wave, and she was about to fall off the boat, clinging tightly to the edge.

She can't fall!

Su Jingge looked at the person who was on the verge of collapse, her whole face turning pale.

His pupils shrank even more than before.

"Madam Qianque, you flatter me." She smiled.

Qian Que swallowed hard; she was the only one who had remained so calm in the first game.

But now the situation has changed.

There wasn't much money in the first four rounds.

Things changed after the fifth game.

She just lost on the horse stake.

Although it's not silver.

If it's for betting, that's 65,536 strings of cash!!!

The next round, the sixth, involves betting on the restaurants of both sides.

She can't afford to lose; she's finally got a family!

Su Jingge noticed the woman's hesitation and said, "If Madam Qianque gives up, she only needs to pay for the first four rounds. Let me calculate..."

256 strings of cash.

It would only be worth around 800,000 now.

"One tael of silver is equivalent to one thousand copper coins, which is one string. 256 strings are only 256 taels of silver!"

"Adding the thousand taels of silver that she voluntarily gave up, it's not much for Madam Qianque, and it's just the tip of the iceberg for Tianbao Pavilion."

These words touched Qian Que's heart.

Giving up only means losing a small amount of money.

If they lose, Tianbao Pavilion will change hands, and everything will be ruined by their own hands.

She pursed her lips, hesitant, and glanced at Chen Yan again.

Shen Yan looked at her with a domineering gaze, his eyes swirling with tension, before his expression relaxed.

Qian Que fought against the wind and waves again, and finally, the wind and waves subsided.

She climbed onto the small boat, looked up, and gazed at the vast expanse of sea and sky.

The sun broke through the clouds and shone brightly again.

She smiled at Su Jingge and said, "I admit defeat!"

Su Jingge finally felt at ease.

He won the stake and also won an additional nearly 4 million modern dollars.

Haha, that's awesome!

That was awesome!

Stimulate!

She stood up and cupped her hands in greeting: "Madam Qianque is a woman of great wisdom and foresight, a heroine among women who knows when to yield. You are welcome to come to my restaurant for drinks in the future."

Qian Que returned the greeting by holding the cup to her chest with a bright and cheerful smile: "Assistant Manager Su is bold and meticulous. Thank you for your appreciation. I will definitely pay you a visit in the future."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion:

"These two are both strong. One is bold, and the other is flexible and adaptable. We've really watched a good show."

"Haha, pulling back from the brink is often the best way to turn back."

Su Jingge knew that Lady Qianque had gained recognition.

She earned the qualities of loyalty, courage, and perseverance.

This further reinforces people's belief that she is a person of her word, elevating their recognition of her to a new level.

This is undoubtedly a good thing.

Shen Yan cupped his hands in greeting: "Oh dear, Miss Su has truly opened my eyes today. Tianbao Pavilion has lost convincingly. I will immediately order someone to fetch the land deed."

Shen Yan beckoned to the servants.

Shen Yan is unwilling to accept this situation, having lost so much money in addition to the stakes.

Su Jingge is a ruthless person.

He was somewhat skeptical of the rumors.

Zhao Liu recently came up with more stories about her, one after another.

He thought she was just a naive and romantic little girl, and that such a big project as building a city was impossible to accomplish.

Even if you're willing to chase the heavens, you still have to think it over carefully.

But this person not only started the work, but also managed to defeat Zhao Zhou to the point where he was barely clinging to life.

This woman is both brave and resourceful, unlike any other.

It's just a pity... This person went against their wishes and ultimately could not walk the same path.

It may become a stumbling block on their path in the future.

It's best to make plans early...

Holding the land deed and silver notes, Su Jingge cupped her hands in greeting to Shen Yan and Qian Que, saying, "Goodbye!"

Then he left.

She looked at Xiao Linyuan coldly: "You're quite composed, not changing your expression at all. You almost scared me to death. My heart was about to jump into your body."

"Didn't we agree that we'd only win the stake? And this land deed of yours has brought out all of Ning Zhutian's men?"

[If we don't gamble like this, we won't be able to get the stake back.]

"Okay, that saves me the trouble of seeing them."

As they spoke, the two walked to the door.

As soon as she stepped outside, she saw a lithe, black figure fighting with the people from Tianbao Pavilion.

Her pupils dilated: "Stop, flying sword!"
