How could Corey play such a big game with a woman?
Is this your first day at the casino? I haven't heard about it before. Corey has already been taken down a couple of times! If this gets out, wouldn't the biggest drug lord be slapped in the face? But then again, Mr. Corey is not someone to be trifled with. This show has only just begun.
In the casino, the lights seemed to shine even brighter. No wonder he’s one of Boss Du’s people; he has guts! Corey slammed his hand on the gambling table, his eyes shifting between light and dark.
Zhi Mu Jiu chuckled lightly and pretended to reason: "Since I didn’t accept Mr. Corey’s bet yesterday, if I refuse again in front of so many people today, that would really show my ignorance."
Du Hengyan had every right to ignore Corey, but today it was her own game on the line. If she didn’t give him some face, how could she expect him to play along?
The second round of betting was about to begin, with both guests raising their stakes, doubling the minimum bet to one hundred million. The other tables also doubled their bets to one hundred million. As the host's voice fell, the casino instantly fell into an eerie silence.
The spectators below also tacitly stopped talking, their gazes fixed tightly on the two people on stage. Ling Yun, sitting next to Du Hengyan, was about to ask her opinion when she saw Du Hengyan wave her hand dismissively, indicating that she should raise the stakes; there was nothing to lose.
The sound of the dice ceased as the dealers received instructions and carefully lifted the dice tower once more.
Mr. Corey: [points], bet doubled: [points].
Mr. Patton: [points].
Points: [points].
Miss Beauty—
The dealer paused for a moment before continuing:
The dice rolled with a sequence of consecutive pairs, and the spectators' holographic screens projected the results of the game played by Late Twilight Jiu.
Six dice were arranged in order: a pair, another pair, and yet another pair. This was a consecutive scoring. Although it did not stack extra points, the base bet had already doubled in value.
Cory's face turned pale, and he was left speechless, instinctively wanting to shout that it must be cheating! The reactions of others present were filled with disbelief. It could be understood if the first round was a coincidence, but for the second round to yield another consecutive score was beyond comprehension; it was no longer just luck.
In that moment, everyone's gaze towards Late Twilight Jiu on the stage was tinged with awe and trepidation. She withdrew her hand from the table and gently brushed off nonexistent dust from her clothes. A slight smile appeared on her lips, her eyes radiating the same calm confidence as always.
"Excuse me, Mr. Cory, but the game is over," she said inwardly rejoicing.
In three rounds of gambling, she had already manipulated the entire game in her favor by the second round. Now, with her points accumulated to an astonishing total, even if she continued to gamble in the final round, no one could surpass her score.
As she raised an eyebrow slightly, the host's voice boomed throughout the gambling hall. "This round of betting is concluded! Please complete your transactions on-site, esteemed guests and gamblers."
"Congratulations to Miss Mask for winning the final prize of the dice game! The most exciting moment is yet to come!"
Then all eyes turned towards the transparent partition at the center of the venue, where lights converged. Underneath a thick black curtain that resembled night itself, mysterious objects were illuminated by layers of spotlights, enhancing their enigmatic allure. The surrounding spectators were all filled with excitement.
Especially the male guests, their eyes shimmering with an unusual light, appeared even more excited. Chi Mu Jiu also involuntarily stood up, sensing that she had guessed something, but that feeling was vague and uncertain.
