The power has disappeared, which means—
The Ghost King is dead.
His wish was to do what he couldn't do a thousand years ago.
Sure enough, his Ah Yuan is the most powerful.
He was very curious about how she did it.
And, isn't she participating in a variety show?
Has something happened to the variety show?
He really wanted to go back to find his Ah Yuan.
I really hope this boring game ends soon.
Ning Yuan thought to himself.
"I didn't lose! You tricked me!" Chen Mingxian shamelessly said.
"Old Chen, that's not right. A bet is all about courage and boldness."
“Nephew Ning Yuan wouldn’t be able to cheat with this deck of cards, after all… it’s the deck you brought, and playing poker was the suggestion.”
Yao Yongzhuang boldly spoke up.
This was the first time he had ever witnessed what shamelessness truly meant.
At the same time, he was also glad that he did not work with Chen Mingxian.
Given his shameless nature, even if he really brings down the Ning family, he might not necessarily give them anything good.
They might very well turn around and say, "Who would cooperate with you?"
"Ning Yuan is right. A man should be able to accept defeat."
"In the first round of shooting, my daughter was no match for them. I accepted the defeat wholeheartedly, and I also lost a large area. Although I was unwilling to accept it, I was willing to accept the loss."
Yuan Sheng followed up.
He thought the same as Yao Yong: Chen Mingxian was definitely not someone he could work with.
Yuan Shuyan nodded, completely convinced of her defeat.
She had nothing to say because she was less skilled than others.
“He won the first round, and I accepted it without question. He couldn’t have cheated. But in the second round, he was clearly trying to cheat me!” Chen Mingxian said unhappily.
He also lost a small territory to Jiang Ningyuan in the first round, and he had nothing to say about it.
Because Jiang Ningyuan's three bullets all hit the bullseye, which was obvious to everyone, and since he only lost a small territory, it didn't really matter.
In the end, everything will come back to him anyway.
But he wouldn't admit to his card skills in the second round!
"You clearly got the six of diamonds, how did it turn into a spade!"
You're cheating!
Chen Mingxian said angrily.
He looked at the cards; he clearly drew a six of diamonds, which couldn't make a straight flush.
Therefore, he only followed suit when he said he would put all his bets on this one round.
But when you open it, it's a straight flush!
What about the six of diamonds?
So Jiang Ningyuan definitely cheated, he's trying to extort him!
"Oh? How did you know I had the six of diamonds?" Ning Yuan asked casually, his eyes filled with amusement.
“I…” Chen Mingxian paused.
He knew, of course, that he could see the number of the deck from the back of each card as soon as they touched it, because the cards on the back were different.
He was certain that Ning Yuan had touched the six of diamonds!
Where is that six of diamonds?
When was it changed to spades?
Ning Yuan cheated, he definitely cheated!
“Old Chen, cheating is not a good thing,” Yao Yong said.
Yuan Sheng remained silent, quietly watching Chen Mingxian.
Chen Mingxian's gaze fell on the cards on the table, and after a quick scan, he spotted the six of diamonds among Yao Yong's cards.
Although they are covered, the unique markings on the back of the cards make it easy to identify what kind of cards they are.
Chen Mingxian reached out and uncovered the card that Yao Yong had been holding back.
A six of diamonds suddenly appeared in front of me.
Yao Yong was also stunned when he saw the six of diamonds appear in his hand.
No, there really is a six of diamonds?
After he folded, he didn't even turn his cards upside down, so he didn't know what cards he had.
But Chen Mingxian was certain that Ning Yuan had drawn the six of diamonds, and now the six of diamonds was in front of him, which meant that Ning had switched his cards!
How did Ning Yuan manage to switch the six of diamonds with his card without anyone noticing?
Only then did Chen Mingxian realize the problem. He glared at Yao Yong and Yuan Sheng, his hand trembling with anger as he pointed at them, "You! You betrayed me!"
No wonder they spoke up for Ning Yuan.
No wonder they kept folding and not calling; it turns out they were in cahoots with Ning Yuan!
They conspired to cheat him.
"When there's mutual benefit at stake, it doesn't count as betrayal," Yao Yong replied.
Although he was innocent in the card-switching incident, Chen Mingxian was right; he had indeed been cooperating with Ning Yuan for some time.
Therefore, Chen Mingxian's statement is not entirely wrong.
Now that he'd been discovered, he didn't want to keep acting.
Being a double agent is exhausting.
“Cooperating with you is only for the betterment of the Yuan family and to consolidate the Yuan family’s position, and the Ning family is offering even more,” Yuan Sheng added.
It's perfectly normal to cooperate with whoever offers the most benefits.
Furthermore, Chen Mingxian's sudden change of heart and his inability to accept defeat made them feel even more certain that they had made the right choice.
"You! You! Good! Good!"
"In that case, you may all die at sea with him and be buried with him!"
Chen Mingxian's expression suddenly turned ferocious. He pulled out a gun from his pocket and pointed it at Yao Yong. His men behind him also pulled out their guns and pointed them at the people present.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Shuyan and the others adopted serious expressions.
Before boarding, there will be a body search by designated personnel, and you are not allowed to bring guns or weapons on board.
The guns used in the first round of the competition were provided by the Ning family. However, after the competition, to put everyone's minds at ease, they unloaded the bullets from the guns and threw them into the sea.
How did Chen Mingxian manage to get away with it?
They have guns; their speed is definitely slower than a bullet.
Unless, by surprise.
but……
The space was cramped, and they were some distance away from Chen Mingxian.
Yao Yong was stunned.
