Pei Jin pushed all the few chips in front of him onto the table and said, "Madam, please reveal your cards!"
Chi Mu Jiu's smile widened even more.
That’s exactly what I was waiting for!
The blonde woman stepped forward with graceful strides, slowly flipping over Pei Jin's cards. Everyone's gaze was fixed on the cards, and when they saw the last two, a pair of Spade Leopards appeared.
With the appearance of the Leopard cards, the six million base bet multiplied tenfold—one hundred million.
The blonde woman's crisp voice announced the winning hand, and Du Chengyan's expression tightened as his subordinates heard that number.
Pei Jin and his companions visibly relaxed, as if they had seen a glimmer of victory.
But only Du Chengyan knew that this pair of Leopards had been deliberately left for Pei Jin, intended to entice him to wager more chips and make the game even more thrilling.
"Old Pei, your cards are quite good," Chi Mu Jiu said, suppressing her urge to burst into laughter and maintaining a polite tone.
Then she turned her eyes playfully, a hint of mischief and anticipation in her gaze. "Du Chengyan, can you tell me how much I can win with my hand?"
As she spoke, she laid her two cards face up on the table. The golden foil cards displayed a pair of Jokers that shimmered brilliantly, declaring her victory.
Du Chengyan chuckled lightly, raising an eyebrow as he looked at Pei Jin. His tone was relaxed yet undeniably certain. "I’ve already calculated it for Madam—ten times that amount—one billion."
Upon hearing this figure, everyone gasped in shock.
It seems Madam's card skills are indeed better than mine.
Pei Jin and his companions, who had just relaxed, tensed up again with incredulity, standing up eagerly to check Chi Mu Jiu's cards.
A pair of Joker Leopards was enough to beat any other pair of same-suit numbered cards.
The onlookers could no longer contain their curiosity and leaned in closer to get a better look.
Even Chi Mu Jiu was slightly taken aback. Although she had anticipated winning, she never expected to win by such a large margin.
What a thrill! What a thrill!
"Thank you, Old Pei," she said with a slight lift of her chin, a victorious smile illuminating her face. Her confidence was captivating, making it hard for anyone to look away.
This gamble had turned out just as she had hoped—beautifully and decisively in her favor.
Pei Jin's lips twitched, his expression frozen in disbelief as he struggled to find the right words. He had come here believing he would redeem his son, but to his shock, he hadn’t even seen his son’s face before losing one hundred eighty billion.
He had thought Chi Mu Jiu was just an inexperienced girl at the card table, someone he could easily handle. Little did he know that she was a master at playing cards.
What kind of geniuses surrounded Du Heng Yan?
Just dealing with Ye Qi was already challenging enough, and now there was this wife who played cards so skillfully. On top of that, Du Heng Yan himself was like a living hell, ruthless and intimidating.
The more Pei Jin thought about it, the angrier he became, his frustration rising within him as he unconsciously clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and steeled himself.
Forget it! As long as Boss Du is willing to show mercy and let my son go, I can still afford this mere sum of money!
When Pei Jin spoke these words, everyone could hear the pain in his voice over the loss of such a significant amount of money. After all, losing such a vast fortune so easily would hurt anyone deeply.
He then exchanged glances with the two people beside him, his tone laced with urgency and resignation.
"I’ll deliver thirty thousand firearms and two tons of goods right away."
Upon hearing the words "goods" and "firearms," Chi Mu Jiu felt a jolt in her heart. It was as if she suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation; she turned to look at Du Heng Yan, her beautiful eyes filled with panic intermingled with fear.
The strikingly handsome man standing close by remained cold and composed, yet at that moment, she desperately wished to find some comfort and answers in his deep gaze.
