Chapter 555: Chapter 359: Why Isn’t It Working Anymore_2

"It’s not us, it’s you!" Meng Lang rolled his eyes.

Yan Weiwei didn’t care, but the next moment she seemed to remember something and couldn’t help frowning again.

"But where can we find a fixed venue for sparring? We can’t possibly give out our home address; we’d be pestered to death every day.

How about... going to the nearby National Forest Park? That place is big!"

National Forest Park?

You think the park is your own property?

Imagine, a group of experts just start a salute and then begin to fight, meanwhile, several tourists are calling 110 to report a fight...

"Doesn’t Brother Hu have a ready-made venue in his hands?" he reminded.

Yan Weiwei was startled, then she quickly understood.

"Do you mean... that boxing gym?"

"Yep!"

"The place is indeed suitable, and borrowing it for a short time is okay, but I heard he’s eager to convert it into cash, who knows, it might be sold any day..."

"Don’t worry about that, I have two friends who are just looking to buy that boxing gym to start a company.

When it’s borrowed, it will also help attract people to their company, I can’t imagine they would refuse.

You’ve met them before, the two brothers who helped in a fight at the bar last time."

"Oh! I remember, one of them was pretty good at Five Ancestor Fist, right, what kind of company do they want to start?"

"Hehe! A security company!"

Thinking of those two, always calling each other ’master’, Meng Lang couldn’t help but smile.

Hmm... I wonder how those two are doing lately...

...

Su City, Huajiao Town, a hidden corner of an underground gambling den...

It was around eight or nine at night, dark and scarcely lit outside.

Unlike the quiet and cold outside, the large underground space was bright with lights and bustling with noise.

With a "ding!" of a bell, "No more bets!"

Chips of various colors and denominations were slapped onto the table.

Various gamblers who came by reputation were venting their desire for money here...

"Brother Biao, long time no see! You had really good luck last time, I heard your family matters were also resolved?"

"Brother Le, your nose is really sharp, hahaha!

You know, right after winning big here, I suddenly felt my luck had turned, so here I am again today!

This place is really my lucky spot, Brother Le, but it’s just too hard to find. I even made a wasted trip last time!

You really move this place around quite often, Brother Le."

"Hehe, it’s all for safety, you know, in our line of work, you can never be too careful.

Let’s not talk about that now, how about it, Brother Biao, how big do you plan to play today?"

"I wasn’t satisfied last time; this time I must at least double or triple it. Ah Xing, change for a million in chips first!"

"Okay, Brother Biao."

"Tsk, Brother Biao is so bold, I wish you great victories tonight!"

"Haha! Thanks for your lucky words, Brother Le, but don’t be upset if I win too much!"

"Would I be that kind of person? In this business, reputation is everything! Hehe...

Xiao Huang, lead Brother Biao and this brother in, don’t neglect our esteemed guests!"

"Alright, Brother Le!"

After Cheng Biao and Ah Xing were led into the gambling den, the smile on Brother Le’s face gradually cooled.

"Is everything ready?"

"Boss! Everything is set!"

"Hmm!"

Watching Cheng Biao and his companion’s backs, Brother Le’s lips curled into a cold smile.

Cheng Biao settled Hu Dazhi so quickly; Brother Le refused to believe Cheng Biao lacked cash handling ability.

Ah Hao was right; this guy definitely had a stash before he went to prison.

It was just a matter of whether he could squeeze it out of him...

In the past, he had been somewhat wary of Cheng Biao.

But after the recent infighting, Cheng Biao’s men had drastically weakened, and he had fewer reservations about making a move.

"Ha! Conquering all four sides? Today, if you leave with your underwear, consider it lucky!"

He was secretly calculating the savory prey of tonight.

Little did he know, he had already become the prey in someone else’s eyes...

...

"How much longer until they arrive?"

"Captain Wang said to prevent a rabbit having three burrows, they need to fully surround the place to understand the terrain, so it’ll take a bit more time."

"Hmm... I feel like Ah Le is not any good, probably watching me in secret.

Keep a low profile, and find a chance to have a look around for possible exits and entrances later.

I will act accordingly, best to stir up some trouble to attract the attention of Brother Le’s people, making it easier for the outside operation."

"Uh... Brother Biao, isn’t this too risky? We’re just trying to help, do we need to go all out?"

"You’re being short-sighted, Brother Meng is clearly an expert in handling big issues.

From the current situation, Captain Wang is obviously one of us.

Since we want to mix with Brother Meng, developing good internal relationships is essential, so don’t be stingy with the favors we ought to give."

"Oh! Alright then, but you’d better be careful later, Brother Biao."

"Don’t worry! Small fry!"

Carrying two boxes of chips, Cheng Biao and Ah Xing walked into the casino, weaving through the noisy crowd while whispering to each other.

"Right! I’ve decided! I’m going for it tonight!"

Worried that lingering around too long would arouse suspicion, Brother Biao took a box of chips and sat at a table playing Texas Poker.

"Croupier! Deal the cards!"

"Yes, sir!"

The sexy female croupier, sporting a professional smile, dealt cards to Cheng Biao and the other gamblers at the table.

She barely noticed Xiao Huang signaling her secretly from a short distance away.

Immediately understanding, she nodded almost imperceptibly.

"Please decide whether to place your bets!"

Cheng Biao looked at his hole cards and, seeing a pair of Aces, was instantly delighted.

"Fifty thousand!"

Some gamblers shook their heads and folded, while others followed suit and placed their bets, and the croupier began turning over the community cards, revealing a low card.

"One hundred thousand!" Cheng Biao looked at the cards and, without hesitation, tossed in a large chip.

"Wow~"

The rest of the gamblers at the table couldn’t help but let out a gasp.

Although it wasn’t uncommon in this casino for a game to see losses and wins in the millions.

However, such scenes weren’t an everyday occurrence; ordinary gamblers usually bet only a few hundred or a few thousand, so it was somewhat rare to see such a large bet after just one card reveal.

You’d need tens of millions in your pocket to dare to play like this.

Those gamblers who had folded early immediately gave up their spots.

The rules of Texas Poker indeed favor gamblers with larger funds; even with good cards, one might simply not have enough money to continue...

"I’ll match that!" Another gambler, after considering his own cards and seeing good odds, decided not to be scared off.

At this table, several gamblers shook their heads and left, while several new gamblers joined in.

What Cheng Biao and his friend failed to notice, however,

was that these newcomers had exchanged very covert signals with the croupier before joining the table...

"Add another hundred thousand!" Brother Biao continued to raise the stakes.

"Brother Biao, isn’t this getting a bit too big?" Ah Xing whispered worriedly.

"Don’t worry!"

Brother Biao displayed an inexplicably confident face.

Kidding, I’m not here for the money tonight!

After all, no matter how much I win, it’ll eventually be confiscated.

This ’psychological advantage’ is with me!

Protected by my distorted Wealth Palace.

As long as I don’t want to win, there’s no way I can lose!

Once I win to the point where no one dares to gamble with me, then, with a few choice words, how can those guys like Ah Le sit still?

"Haha! I have three Aces!" Brother Biao excitedly flipped over his hole cards.

"Sorry, I have a straight."

"Uh...."

minutes later...

"Brother Biao, we’ve lost everything..."

Ah Xing looked at his boss in despair, nearly in tears.

Losing a million in half an hour was definitely painful enough to hurt Ah Xing for several months.

"This shouldn’t be happening..."

Brother Biao was also dumbstruck.

How did it stop working?

"Hey! Brother Biao, I heard you were unlucky today, throwing away a million, huh?"

At this moment, Brother Le appeared from nowhere, his tone slightly sympathetic.

"How about this, we’re all brothers here, just doing it for fun, tonight we’ll return all of Brother Biao’s money, how about that?" he offered magnanimously.

Cheng Biao caught on.

Although the plan to attract attention by "beating everyone around" had failed, did he manage to draw attention this way?

Seeing more and more gamblers attracted by the high stakes gathering around.

Cheng Biao gritted his teeth and decided to stick with the mistake.

"Do I look like someone who can’t afford to lose? Give me another million in chips!"
