"Boss Du, my son didn't complete the bet. As his father, I will take his place. If I win this bet, I ask you to release Pei Si, and I will ensure the mercenaries withdraw. If I lose, I am willing to offer three hundred thousand in arms as a stake, along with two tons of goods."
Pei Jin's voice was firm, but the tension beneath was palpable. Du Hengyan frowned slightly upon hearing this, seemingly weighing the pros and cons of the deal.
This transaction sounded advantageous from every angle. His tone remained flat and unyielding.
Pei Jin let out a long breath; Du Hengyan's response indicated he had agreed.
Hearing this, Chi Mu Jiu felt a surge of surprise. Two tons of goods? Three hundred thousand in arms? Was it true that dealings in the underworld never involved cash? It was all about goods?
She couldn't help but feel more curious and uneasy about this dangerous and mysterious world of crime.
"Du Hengyan," Chi Mu Jiu called softly, her voice light as a feather, drifting gently into his ear.
"Yes, I'm here," he replied softly, his voice deep and tender.
Chi Mu Jiu leaned closer and whispered, "How much are these things worth?"
Du Hengyan looked at her cautious demeanor and found her adorably endearing.
If measured in terms of money, probably in the hundreds of millions.
Upon hearing this figure, Chi Mu Jiu's eyes widened in shock, filled with awe.
"That's so much money! Then what are these goods?" she asked again, her curiosity piqued.
This time, Du Hengyan shook his head slightly without giving her a direct answer. Instead, he smiled mysteriously and said, "Win this bet, and you'll find out."
"Me?!" Chi Mu Jiu exclaimed in surprise, pointing at herself.
"Yes," Du Heng Yan affirmed with certainty.
Before Chi Mu Jiu could protest, Du Heng Yan's deep voice resonated once more: "Then let my wife take part in this gamble. It will be a good opportunity for her to practice."
The three individuals across the table immediately displayed expressions of shock, confusion, and bewilderment. They never expected Du Heng Yan to allow a woman to participate in such a crucial gambling match.
Then, all three of them simultaneously let out a sigh of relief. What skills could a woman possibly have in card games? In their minds, women at the card table were merely there for decoration, incapable of possessing any remarkable talent.
Pei Jin also felt that Du Heng Yan was simply trying to amuse his wife with this gamble. After all, winning or losing meant little to Du Heng Yan; even if he lost, it would just mean letting someone go.
Chi Mu Jiu naturally noticed the relaxed expressions on the faces of the three men. Du Heng Yan exchanged a knowing glance with her, and they both shared a smile. In that moment, an unspoken understanding seemed to flow between them.
"Deal the cards," he said, his lips barely moving, his voice concise and powerful.
In the spacious card room, several elegant blonde women were already waiting, their steps graceful and their gazes alluring. The suspenseful gambling match was about to begin.
