"Miss June, you're looking for me?"
Ye Ziyi went upstairs and met Qiong.
"Um."
Qiong looked at Ye Ziyi and nodded.
"Ms. Ye, please take a seat."
"good."
Ye Ziyi sat on the sofa without saying anything, waiting for Qiong to speak first.
"Ms. Ye, do you know my identity?"
Joan sat opposite and asked slowly.
"Um."
Ye Ziyi admitted it frankly.
"I'm sorry for investigating you without your permission."
"Nothing. If it were me, and someone of unknown origin suddenly showed up, I would investigate as well."
Joan shook her head.
"Does he know about it, too?"
"He doesn't know, and I didn't plan to tell him. In fact, he was quite curious about you, but he promised you that if you didn't want to tell him, he wouldn't ask, so he didn't investigate you... It was my own decision."
Hearing Ye Ziyi's words, Qiong felt a little relieved: "Thank you, Miss Ye."
"Haha, you're welcome."
Ye Ziyi chuckled.
"If one day he knew your identity, it must be you who told him."
"No, I won't tell him."
Joan shook her head.
"I hope to be friends with him and don't want our friendship to be mixed with other things."
"Friendship?"
Ye Ziyi looked at Qiong's beautiful face and her smile deepened.
"why are you laughing?"
Joan was curious.
"nothing."
Ye Ziyi shook her head.
"Don't you believe that he and I can become friends? In my heart, he is already my friend."
Joan frowned slightly.
"No, I don't doubt it, but... in your heart, is he just a friend?"
Ye Ziyi smiled.
Hearing Ye Ziyi's words, Qiong was stunned, with a strange look in her eyes: "Isn't he your boyfriend?"
"Yes, but he's not my boyfriend alone."
Ye Ziyi nodded.
"He's not your boyfriend alone? Could it be..."
Joan's eyes widened.
"Haha, I don't care about these things. I know... you probably don't care about them either."
Ye Ziyi smiled.
“…”
Joan opened her mouth. What did she mean by this?
While the two women were chatting upstairs, the challenge downstairs was also going on.
The king shuffles the cards, and the two players draw three cards each to compare the size.
In addition to the 100 million challenge fee, the stakes for this round are an additional 500 million US dollars.
Originally Xiao Chen wanted 1 billion, but the person challenging him was a bit timid and said 500 million would be enough.
Xiao Chen thought about it and decided that five hundred million would be fine. If converted into RMB, it would be acceptable.
Brand new poker cards were placed on the gaming table.
The gambling king took it, showed it, and then opened the playing cards.
Xiao Chen and the challenger stood on both sides of the gambling table, staring at the poker cards in the gambling king's hand.
Even though Xiao Chen was confident, he did not dare to be careless at this moment.
After all, the one who shuffles the cards is the world's gambling king!
The way he shuffles the cards is definitely unusual.
At this time, if you want to remember the cards again and then draw out the biggest card, it will really test your card counting ability and eyesight.
"Can we start now?"
The king asked.
After hearing the king's words, the scene fell silent, and everyone around looked over.
"Okay."
Xiao Chen said.
The challenger on the opposite side also nodded.
"Then... let's begin."
After the king finished speaking, he separated the cards in his hand and shook them. Each card flew into the air and overlapped with each other at an extremely fast speed.
His movements were so quick that the cards were almost invisible, leaving only faint afterimages.
"As expected of the king, just the level of shuffling the cards is amazing."
Many people at the scene had this thought.
Xiao Chen stared at the flying playing cards, and soon he locked onto the first card - the Ace of Spades.
At the same time, the challenger on the opposite side also locked on the Ace of Hearts.
Crash!
The sound made by playing cards looks more magical than the stunts in movies like God of Gamblers.
In the king's hands, every playing card seems to have life, like a different elf dancing.
Xiao Chen was amazed. Just this one move made him feel ashamed of himself.
The reason why the King can become the world's gambling king, besides his X-ray vision, is that his gambling skills are also at the pinnacle!
Wow!
The cards fell onto the gambling table in an orderly manner, one upon another.
"Okay."
The king glanced at the two of them and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Chen and the challenger attacked almost at the same time.
Swish, swish, swish!
What surprised Xiao Chen was that the challenger's hand speed was also very fast.
"No wonder it's called the 'ghost hand'."
Xiao Chen muttered, with a strange look in his eyes.
Then, his outstretched hand trembled slightly.
"Open the cards!"
The challenger has already taken three cards and is looking at Xiao Chen opposite him.
He smiled with a look of confidence, he was sure to win this round.
One hundred million challenge money?
Haha, his money is not so easy to get!
"Okay, then let's open the cards."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"You are doomed to lose... Haha, I knew you were only good at dice. You are not worthy of being the world's gambling king."
The challenger sneered and flipped open the three cards in front of him.
"Ace of Hearts, Ace of Diamonds, Ace of Clubs, Three of a Kind, Panther, the biggest card!"
The people around exclaimed.
It seems that Xiao Chen is going to lose!
Even the king's eyelids twitched slightly. Three aces?
Just now, he thought the three aces were in Xiao Chen's hand, but now it seems not.
Then, he glanced at the poker cards he had shuffled. Even without turning on his X-ray vision, he could still tell what cards each of the two people had. After all, he was the one who shuffled the cards, so he knew the exact number.
After he finished reading it, his eyes became strange. No way?
"Let me see how you play the biggest card... The Ace of Spades is in your hand, right? Hahaha, show your cards!"
The challenger laughed triumphantly.
"Well, you have the biggest card, but that doesn't necessarily mean you'll win... Also, you're wrong. The Ace of Spades is not in my hand."
Xiao Chen shook his head and flipped over the three cards in front of him.
"Fuck, 235?"
When the people around saw Xiao Chen's cards, their eyes widened. The smallest card?
"What? 235?"
The challenger's expression suddenly changed. How could this be possible?
"The smallest card kills the biggest card... Is this even possible?"
"Three Aces are out."
Looking at the two people's cards, the discussion on the scene became louder.
According to the rules of Golden Flower, 235 is the smallest card, but it can kill all leopards, including the largest leopard, three A's!
"No, that's impossible... You clearly got the Ace of Spades!"
The challenger couldn't believe it.
"Well, you read it right. I did take the Ace of Spades at first, but after seeing you took the Ace of Hearts, I changed my mind... Hehe, the biggest card doesn't necessarily mean you win. You lose."
Xiao Chen looked at him and said with a smile.
“…”
The challenger was trembling and his face looked very ugly.
Just now, he thought he was sure to win, but in the blink of an eye, he was defeated by the smallest card.
If he didn't get the biggest card, then he might feel better about losing.
But he clearly got it, who would have thought... Xiao Chen would dare to take such a huge risk and take the smallest card.
He is really...depressed!
"Xiao Chen wins."
The king looked at Xiao Chen with even stronger admiration in his eyes, and said loudly.
"Haha, thank you for your hard work, Senior King."
Xiao Chen smiled at the king and thought of something.
"Oh, by the way, since everyone is here today, let me tell you something."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone looked over, including the challenger.
"I heard that quite a few people wanted to challenge me yesterday, and I guess there will be quite a few more in the future... As for me, I was just playing around, and I never thought I could become the world's gambling king!"
Xiao Chen glanced at everyone and spoke slowly.
“…”
As for Xiao Chen's "just playing around", everyone had simply ignored it, otherwise they would have felt aggrieved.
"I'm very busy and don't have much time to accept various gambling challenges... But don't say I don't give you a chance. If you want to challenge me, you can do so. The challenge fee is 200 million US dollars, and the gambling chips must not be less than 1 billion US dollars! If you meet these two requirements, you can contact... Tian Kun, he is my agent!"
Xiao Chen said this, pointing at Tian Kun.
"Tian Kun, tell me your number later."
"ah?"
Tian Kun was stunned. When did I become your agent?
Still, he nodded.
"Remember the conditions. Two hundred million challenge money. These two hundred million challenge money are non-refundable..."
Xiao Chen looked serious, but he was muttering in his heart, the king has a private island, I have to save money to buy a few for fun...
“…”
The people around him were all speechless. Are you crazy because you are poor? To challenge you, you have to take 200 million US dollars for the challenge?
For some reason, the challenger, who had originally had an unpleasant expression on his face, suddenly felt better after hearing Xiao Chen's words.
He had a feeling...that he had earned 100 million US dollars.
Although he thought it was a bit ridiculous for him to have such a feeling, but... he really had this feeling.
"Okay, I've said what I wanted to say, and everyone has watched the fun, so please do as you please."
Xiao Chen's face was full of smiles.
"If anyone wants to challenge, they can find Tian Kun to sign up... Of course, if you want to challenge now, you can do so. You can do so immediately after paying 200 million US dollars."
“…”
The people around looked at Xiao Chen, do you think we are fools? A 200 million dollar challenge? Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this!
Xiao Chen didn't bother to care what they thought and looked at the king.
The king nodded slightly and winked at Clay beside him.
"Um."
Clay nodded, and took a few female assistants, taking advantage of the chaotic scene, and took the elevator upstairs.
About ten minutes later, Clay and his female assistants reappeared.
"Xiao Xiaoyou, remember our agreement. I will wait for you."
When the king saw them coming back, he said to Xiao Chen with a smile.
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded, his eyes swept across the female assistants, and stayed on one of their faces for a few seconds.
Afterwards, the King left the hotel with Clay and his female assistant.
Xiao Chen sent them to the door, and one of the female assistants nodded slightly to him.
The convoy slowly left.
Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and turned back to the hotel.
He also had to make some arrangements and then leave.
