Chapter 346
The dealer glanced at Cheng Qingli one last time, seemingly wanting to hear her change her mind. Otherwise, he really wasn't confident he could create a winning situation.
"Boss, are you still hungry? You need someone to urge you on such a small matter?" Cheng Qingli raised an eyebrow and said deliberately.
The dealer, who had been hesitant, laughed in exasperation upon hearing this. What kind of nonsense was this?
He was understanding that the young girl was naive, but little did he know that she didn't care at all.
Thinking of this, the dealer picked up the dice cup, which clearly showed three, five, and six – big!
"Young lady, I'm sorry, but we'll gladly accept your money!" Liu San said smugly to Cheng Qingli.
I thought to myself, "I'm so lucky today."
It's unbelievable that I could encounter such a generous spender.
Thinking about this, and considering that he had just won a total of twenty taels of silver, something he had never done before, he realized he had won a lot.
Liu San thought to himself, "If only a few more idiots like this came to Jubao Tower every day."
"Go, bookie, let's go again. I refuse to believe I can't win," Cheng Qingli said, feigning dissatisfaction.
"Chunxi, get the money!" Cheng Qingli said to the maid behind her with a displeased expression.
The maid deliberately looked at Cheng Qingli with a troubled expression before carefully saying, "Second Miss, we've run out of money."
"Gone? Who are you kidding? I saw you take silver notes from your makeup box when you left. Take them out now," Cheng Qingli said, feigning displeasure.
“Miss, these are the silver notes that Madam gave you to buy things. If you spend them all, how will you explain it to Madam later?” Chunxi said deliberately, trying to make things difficult for her.
Inside the gambling den, although it was noisy, Chunxi's words were heard by everyone.
The people looked at Chunxi with somewhat unfriendly eyes, thinking to themselves, "What a little girl, yet she's so nosy."
"Miss Cheng, how about I make a bet with you?" Huo Yunzhi walked up to Cheng Qingli and said smugly.
How do you want to bet?
Cheng Qingli smiled slightly, thinking to herself, "The fish has finally taken the bait."
"We'll play a best-of-five series. If you win, this three thousand taels of silver is yours. If you lose, Qin Lou is mine!" Huo Yunzhi said, taking out the three thousand taels of silver notes she had prepared earlier.
Cheng Qingli looked at Huo Yunzhi and wondered, where does this woman get her confidence that she can beat me?
Based on those games I just played, where I deliberately lost to my employer?
Thinking of this, Cheng Qingli felt smug.
“Since Consort Huo wants to gamble, I’ll play along.” Cheng Qingli stood up, walked to an empty table, and waved to the innkeeper upstairs.
"What are your orders, Miss?" Soon, a servant came over and asked respectfully.
"Go find someone for us. This lady and I are going to have a good gamble today." Cheng Qingli's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but everyone present could hear it.
Those who had just won money looked at Huo Yunzhi with a hint of jealousy.
He thought to himself, "Who is this woman? She's so hateful, blocking their path to wealth."
Liu San gestured to the people beside him, thinking to himself, "That woman can easily produce three thousand taels of silver notes, so we should skin her alive too."
"Yes!" Upon hearing this, the waiter quickly withdrew.
