Mei Huaqi caught her breath and hurriedly explained, "How could I dare to cheat in front of so many gambling experts? Besides, Miss Chu was watching. If I made any moves, she would definitely see through me."
As the saying goes, nine out of ten gamblers lose. As the house, he doesn't need to cheat to win. Some people think that if you bet on both big and small at the same time, you will neither win nor lose no matter how many rounds you play.
In reality, it's impossible, because there are many hand types that the house can beat, such as three of a kind. So, if you gamble against the house, even if you win once or twice, you'll inevitably lose after a few rounds.
Zuan nodded: "Okay, then hurry up and shake it."
Mei Huaqi sneered inwardly, his hands moving rapidly, leaving behind afterimages that drew gasps of surprise from those around him.
He couldn't help but feel a little proud. Among the gang leader's adopted sons, his cultivation level was not high, yet he was able to sit in this seat, all thanks to his gambling skills and his "ghost hands".
He can roll any number he wants.
So he decided to roll a triple this time, which would win both big and small. No matter whether he bets on big, small, or even the sum of the points, he would still lose.
Halfway through the draw, he suddenly hesitated. What if he bet everything and actually wins by sheer luck?
The odds are 150 to 100. If you lose, that's 7.5 million taels of silver. You couldn't get that much money even if you sold the entire Plum Blossom Gang.
However, he thought again, how could he possibly win? Even if it's a leopard, there are six possible outcomes. Even if he were to bet on a leopard, the probability would only be one in six.
What am I afraid of?
He chuckled self-deprecatingly, placed the dice cup face down on the table, and looked at Zu An with a smile: "Young master, please place your bet."
Those eyes seemed to say, "Come on, send me your money. Come on, send me your money."
Zu An wasn't in a hurry; instead, he looked at Chu Chuyan first.
Chu Chuyan said calmly, "Don't worry, he didn't cheat." With her fifth-grade cultivation, and this guy only at the second grade, it was a crushing victory of three grades. What tricks could he possibly hide from her?
Zuan shook his head: "That's not what I'm asking you. I'm asking if you have any copper coins on you?"
"A copper coin? What do you want to do with it?" Chu Chuyan asked, puzzled. She took out a coin from her bosom. She usually carried some loose change with her when managing the Chu family's business affairs.
“Let me borrow it,” Zuan took the coin and brought it to her lips. “Blow on it for me.”
Chu Chuyan's face turned cold: "Don't be ridiculous!"
Zuan laughed and said, "Do me a favor. With your magical aura, I guarantee I can win."
"Blow! Blow! Blow!"
Those watching, eager for chaos, joined in the commotion.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Chu Chu felt she had no choice but to gently blow on the copper coin. A slight blush rose on her jade cheeks as she thought that she would settle accounts with this guy after they got out.
Feeling as if a gentle breeze was brushing against his fingertips, Zu An laughed and said, "Alright, with my wife's immortal energy, I guarantee we'll win this time. I'll bet on whichever copper coin falls next."
After saying that, he threw the copper coin into the air. As the coin landed on the gambling table, it rolled around and around, attracting everyone's attention. Even Chu Chuyan couldn't help but watch.
Originally, she was just watching the show, but Zuan gave her a nudge and said that she should bet based on where the coins fell, which made her unknowingly get involved.
For the first time in ages, her heart had been racing; she was more eager than ever to know the outcome of this bet.
The coin rolled along until it hit the edge of the gambling table, then bounced back a little distance before stopping in the top three-one box.
Zu An laughed and immediately put up the 50,000 taels of silver notes in his hand: "Since it's fate, then I'll bet it all on this!"
"Open! Open! Open!"
All the gamblers around wanted to know how it would end, and of course they most wanted to see Zuan lose everything. He even had the mind to flirt with girls in the middle of it all. This guy was really too hateful!
Mei Huaqi's expression changed drastically. How could this be!
In that instant, he felt a white blur before his eyes, and all the noise around him seemed to have lost its meaning. He could only see everyone's faces contorted in rage, their mouths opening and closing as if they were saying something, but he could no longer hear a single word.
"Huh?"
Seeing that the gambling den was not opening the lid for a long time, the gamblers around suddenly realized something was wrong. Could it be that this kid had really guessed right by sheer luck?
"Why hasn't the plum blossom in the seventh month bloomed yet?"
"Yes, hurry up and drive!"
