On the table, there was a dazzling pair of 6s, plus a 9 of clubs.
These were Chen Feng's hole cards.
He cheated?
Ouyang Hua wanted to vomit blood.
His throat felt sweet.
That kid actually used a pair of 6s to force him to give up the gamble?
In the private room.
Mai Zijie and Song YaWen looked at each other.
Both of them had guessed that Chen Feng hadn't won Ouyang Hua through gambling skills, but had simply won by bluffing psychologically.
Good heavens!
That kid was too amazing!
He actually forced an old gambler to retreat using psychological warfare?
Seeing Ouyang Hua's face flush and his body tremble slightly, Mai Zijie tentatively offered comfort: "Mr. Ouyang, that kid cheated, don't take it to heart."
Ouyang Hua muttered in a hoarse voice: "Psychological warfare is also a type of gambling skill. I didn't expect that my King triple would be scared away by a pair of 6s."
"Hehe."
Song YaWen came over to smooth things over: "That kid looks like a sly one. He's young, so he's not afraid to cheat. This is what they call 'the barefoot aren't afraid of those with shoes'."
After speaking, she stared at Ouyang Hua's cards on the table and said with interest: "Mr. Ouyang, were your hole cards a King triple?"
"Yes."
Ouyang Hua slowly sat down.
As if all his strength had been exhausted, he reached out and picked up his hole cards.
However, the moment he picked up his own hole cards, he suddenly trembled violently and shot up to his feet.
His face was full of disbelief.
Staring at the cards in his hand, his hands were trembling.
Mai Zijie and Song YaWen were both stunned.
What now?
Could it be that his own hole cards were also wrong?
"Pfft!"
Suddenly, Ouyang Hua opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, collapsing directly onto the chair.
The three cards in his hand also fell.
Scattered on the tabletop.
Mai Zijie was startled and rushed over, anxiously saying: "Mr. Ouyang? Mr. Ouyang? Are you alright? What's wrong with you?"
Song YaWen glanced at the cards on the table in surprise.
Huh?
Where was the King triple?
It was clearly a 2, a 3, and a 5.
The smallest cards possible.
Even if the cards were revealed, Ouyang Hua was destined to lose.
So, in this round, whether the cards were revealed or not, he was utterly defeated.
And he lost extremely miserably.
No wonder he vomited blood.
...
Outside the restaurant.
Lin Zu didn't know what was happening in the private room.
He came out to see Chen Feng and Liu Rui off.
While hailing a cab by the roadside.
Lin Zu patted Chen Feng's shoulder and whispered: "A Feng, you really opened my eyes today. If it were me, I would have definitely taken those two casinos. A step to the peak."
Chen Feng glanced at him: "Aren't you also at the peak now?"
"Me?"
Lin Zu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Are you making fun of me? I'm just a... sigh, never mind, let's not talk about it. We'll see in the future. I hope my choice wasn't wrong."
"What if it was wrong?"
Chen Feng looked at him.
"If it's wrong... then it's wrong. What else can I do? If you become famous first, just don't forget to help a brother out."
"Azu..."
"Alright, A Feng, I know what you're going to say. Don't try to persuade me, I've already embarked on this path. Let's talk about it in the future. By the way, are you sending off the junior sister?"
"Yes."
"Alright then, the car's here. Hurry back."
Lin Zu patted Chen Feng's shoulder: "Anyway, we can still stay here for a week. We have plenty of time to eat, let's make plans for tomorrow or the day after."
"Alright."
Chen Feng didn't want to say anything more.
Just as the car arrived, Chen Feng took Liu Rui directly into the taxi and headed towards the hotel.
Watching the two leave, Lin Zu's expression was somewhat helpless.
He had long noticed the unspoken connection between Chen Feng and Liu Rui.
These two were together.
It was enviable.
Liu Rui, whether in looks or figure, was one in a million.
What was rare was that her personality was also good.
Not manipulative or fake, which was very rare.
The two of them together were truly a perfect match.
And himself?
He met Song YaWen by chance, and in order to avoid twenty years of struggle, in order to tap into Song YaWen's network and resources, he willingly debased himself.
Becoming a kept man.
Although his dignity was shattered, he was slowly gaining some resources now.
Everyone's path in life is forged by themselves.
Lin Zu took a deep breath.
He turned and strode back into the restaurant.
It was better not to envy others.
Even if Song YaWen wasn't as youthful and beautiful as Liu Rui, an older woman naturally possessed a mature charm, which wasn't bad either.
That kind of allure wasn't something a naive young girl could possess.
Those who know, know.
As long as he achieved success in the future, all his current sacrifices would be worth it.
Lin Zu resolutely returned to the private room.
As soon as he entered, he found Ouyang Hua, who had vomited blood and fainted.
Only after asking around did he learn that he had been utterly defeated by Chen Feng, not only in skill but also completely in mindset.
Therefore, Ouyang Hua was finished!
He would never recover.
Lin Zu was horrified.
His mind, which had slowly calmed down, once again churned with towering waves.
Damn it.
Where did that kid Chen Feng learn this skill?
He's so amazing?
With such gambling skills, why would he be a struggling actor?
Wouldn't Macau be a better option for him?
Lin Zu was confused again.
...
Midnight.
In the hotel room.
The quiet after tender intimacy.
Chen Feng held Liu Rui as they lay on the large bed, neither of them speaking, quietly enjoying the calm after the storm.
After lying for a while.
Liu Rui suddenly looked up at Chen Feng and asked softly: "What were your hole cards, after all?"
"You curious cat."
Chen Feng chuckled: "It doesn't matter what they were, the gamble was canceled anyway."
"I want to know, I'm curious."
Liu Rui started to act spoiled.
"Alright, there's no harm in telling you, my hole cards were just a pair of small 6s."
"Ah?"
Liu Rui was startled, she sat up in astonishment and looked at Chen Feng: "You only had a pair of small 6s, and then you bluffed him, and actually bluffed away his King triple."
"He didn't have a King triple either."
Chen Feng looked out the window and smiled: "His cards were also swapped by me. I deliberately made him think I had hidden four Aces, but in fact, I hadn't hidden them, it was just a secret technique that he didn't discover."
Liu Rui gasped: "How did you swap them? I was the one dealing the cards."
"Yes, you dealt the cards."
Chen Feng exhaled and said: "I hid the four Ace cards within the deck. He thought I had stolen them, so when he shuffled, he shuffled as if there were no four Aces."
"If there really were no four Aces, then his hole cards would definitely be three Kings."
"But unfortunately, all four Aces were there."
"So, as soon as he tampered with it, the order was wrong."
"This resulted in both our hands being randomly dealt small cards."
"If he had really dared to reveal the cards, it would have been purely a gamble of luck."
"But unfortunately, he didn't dare."
"After he lost to the Macau Gambling King, he was actually already broken."
"Once a gambler's confidence collapses, it's impossible to pick it back up. Never easily believe the plots in movies."
Liu Rui: "..."
Listening to Chen Feng speak these words, she always felt like he wasn't Chen Feng anymore.
Like another person.
Especially that gaze, as if he could see through people's hearts.
Oh my god!
How many faces does this guy have?
