Lan Zeyu did not mention what Su Ruoxi had to do if she lost. In his opinion, he felt that Su Ruoxi was not an average person, but since his subordinates had brought her back, he could not just send her off. After all, that man really did steal other people’s money in the gambling den and got caught.
Su Ruoxi completely disregarded Lan Zeyu’s good will. It was all because she had her eyes on the gambling den. At this moment, the Assistant-in-Charge could still maintain his chivalry in front of her, but this would be different later on.
“How would Madam like to bet?” Lan Zeyu looked at Su Ruoxi and asked.
“Up to you,” said Su Ruoxi.
“Then let’s keep it simple and guess Big or Small. What do you think?” Lan Zeyu said while being shocked. He felt that his attitude was already very friendly, but the other party did not seem to acknowledge it. Did she really think that lowly of him?
After thinking for a while, he felt that it was not right. No matter what, he was still a handsome man. This was really the first time someone was so nonchalant towards him. How would he know what Su Ruoxi was thinking? If he did, he would not be so calm.
“Okay,” said Su Ruoxi. She also felt that a fast battle would be better.
“Sure.” Lan Zeyu walked to the gambling table, picked up the dice cup on it, and started shaking it lightly, while looking at Su Ruoxi.
His shaking speed was not very fast, mainly because he wanted to test Su Ruoxi and see why she dared to walk into their gambling den.
Su Ruoxi’s face was still filled with smiling intents. She had known too much about gambling. As she was an assassin in her previous life, this was something that she had to learn.
In addition to coming here and attaining her cultivation, she could clearly see Lan Zeyu’s dice turning inside. Even though his shaking speed was not very fast, Su Ruoxi could see clearly that the dice was turning at top speed.
Lan Zeyu did not see the expression he wanted on Su Ruoxi’s face, so he sped up his shaking movements.
Piak! The dice cup landed on the table.
“Madam, please place your bets.” Lan Zeyu smiled slightly.
“I’ll pick small,” said Su Ruoxi as she took out a golden coin and threw it onto the part of the table with the word ‘small’.
Lan Zeyu was taken aback, as he clearly did not expect Su Ruoxi to be so straightforward with her bets. However, if she won, their gambling den would lose its reputation.
Originally, he never thought that Su Ruoxi would guess it correctly, and thought that this matter would end once she guessed it wrongly, but…
“Haha, Madam, are you sure you don’t want to change your answer?” Lan Zeyu asked again.
“Mm, I’m not changing it,” said Su Ruoxi lightly.
“Okay, then Madam, watch closely.” Lan Zeyu picked up the dice cup in his hands and with one flip, three dice appeared in front of him. They were 1, 2, and 3 respectively, totaling up to 6 points – small!
Upon seeing the situation, Lan Zeyu was shocked. As he was the one that shook the dice cup, he knew very clearly that it should have been 4, 5, and 6 – big. How did it suddenly become small? The faces of Lan Zeyu and the people behind him tensed up in no time.
Quite a few people, who were gambling at the other tables, came over curiously to join in the commotion when they saw Lan Zeyu opening the table. One needed to know that Lan Zeyu was not only in charge of Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den, he was also a famous Gambling God in Heavenly Phoenix City. He had never lost before.
The matter of Su Ruoxi guessing it correctly was small, but it was big for Lan Zeyu to lose his reputation.
“How? Is the person mine now?” Su Ruoxi laughed and asked.
“Madam is really lucky. Let him go,” said Lan Zeyu with a dark face.
“Master, this…”
“Let him go.” Lan Zeyu said solemnly.
“Yes!” The few guards from before glared at Su Ruoxi indignantly, and threw the unconscious man to Su Ruoxi’s feet.
“Mo Lian!” Su Ruoxi said lightly.
Mo Lian looked at the man on the floor, picked him up with one hand by his collar, and walked out.
“May I know how Madam guessed it correctly previously?” Lan Zeyu asked, as he saw that Su Ruoxi was about to leave.
Su Ruoxi smiled and said, “is this very hard to guess? I can guess it correctly every time! It’s simple.”
“Haha, this Madam here, you must be joking. If you’re really able to get it right with every bet, then our gambling den would have to close down.”
“It’s true. I have been gambling for so many years, but I haven’t seen someone accurate to their every guess!”
Someone in the crowd laughed out loud upon hearing her words.
“You haven’t seen it before because you’re not experienced enough. It doesn’t mean that I’m joking,” said Su Ruoxi lightly.
Something flashed in Lan Zeyu and he said, “haha, really? Then would Madam be willing to guess again?”
If she really let her go like that today, the matter of Lan Zeyu losing to a girl would be known throughout the town. That would not be something he would like to happen.
“Bet again? But what would the wager be? As I’m too lucky and too good at gambling, I don’t really like to gamble, unless the wager is something that would make me satisfied.” Su Ruoxi looked at Lan Zeyu and said in a seemingly laughing manner.
“If Madam wins this time, I – Lan Zeyu – would accept my defeat and accept a request of yours, no matter what it is,” said Lan Zeyu after thinking for a while.
“One request? What to do? I have this weird habit, which is that if I can do it on my own, I will try not to trouble others. But if I can’t do it, then I also have ways to get other people to do it. It seems like this bet isn’t worth much,” said Su Ruoxi.
“Then what does Madam want to bet with?” Lan Zeyu asked after a pause.
“Why don’t we bet on this gambling den?” Su Ruoxi said nonchalantly.
Upon hearing that, the crowd burst into chatters as everyone looked at Su Ruoxi in disbelief, as if they were confirming what they had just heard.
Were they mistaken? This woman actually wanted to bet Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den! This was too shocking.
“Madam, you must be joking. This gambling den isn’t even mine.” Upon hearing her words, Lan Zeyu was also shocked and immediately laughed and said.
“Why? Owner Lan, are you scared of losing? How do you know that the gambling den would definitely be lost to me?” said Su Ruoxi with the same smile on her face.
Sometimes, agitating the general was better than inviting him. As expected, Lan Zeyu’s face immediately changed.
“Owner Lan, bet with her. We’ll support you!”
“Yes, Owner Lan, let her see what it means to be a Gambling God! If not, anyone would dare to come and mess with you!”
The crowd started chiming in one after another, and their gaze towards Su Ruoxi was as if they were looking at an idiot.
“Since Madam wants me to use Heavenly Phoenix Gambling Den as a wager, what do you want to use as yours?” Lan Zeyu was not someone impulsive, as he said this harmoniously.
“Owner Lan, what do you want me to use to bet? As long as you can think of it, I’ll do it,” said Su Ruoxi with a smile.
“Even if it’s your life?” Lan Zeyu said purposely as his eyes darkened.
“Sure! I’m just afraid that you’re not capable enough,” said Su Ruoxi lightly.
