Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Betting With Life

"Hmm?" Chu Ge’s gaze sharpened as he stared at Lin Dong.

"Hehe." Seeing Chu Ge’s expression, Lin Dong thought his words had intimidated him. He proudly wiped his nose and lowered his voice, "Let me tell you, those stories in martial arts novels, they actually exist in the real world. We call those people Ancient Martial Artists! And on this ship, there are Ancient Martial Artists!"

"You know that too?" To be honest, Chu Ge really hadn’t expected Lin Dong to be able to gather even this kind of information.

"Compile all the information on the Ancient Martial Artists on this ship for me, we can negotiate the price," Chu Ge said without hesitation.

"Hehe." Lin Dong laughed: "Then our previous talk about cooperation..."

"How much do you want to win?" Chu Ge looked at Lin Dong and smiled, but there was a slightly eerie look in his smile.

Clearly, Lin Dong hadn’t expected such a response. Testing the waters, he asked, "You mean... I can win as much as I want?"

"Of course." Chu Ge nodded, "But there’s a condition, you must pay the appropriate price. If the price you pay isn’t enough for what you win..."

"What will happen?" Lin Dong instinctively sensed something ominous.

"You’ll have to fill the gap with your life... Perhaps, even just your life won’t be enough!"

"Gulp—" Lin Dong swallowed, not doubting the truth in Chu Ge’s words at all.

After struggling for a while, he nodded emphatically: "Okay!"

...

It was still the same gambling table, this time Lin Dong sat at a seat, while Chu Ge stood beside him.

When the croupier put the cover on the jar on the table, Chu Ge whispered, "Big."

"Okay, big!" Lin Dong hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and pushed all of his remaining few chips on big.

Waiting was the most agonizing part, and fine beads of sweat even appeared on Lin Dong’s forehead. Finally, after everyone had placed their bets, the croupier lifted the lid, "Four four five, big!"

"Holy shit!" Lin Dong yelled, jumping up from his seat.

Everyone else at the table frowned. Each person was dressed in suits, paying close attention to their image, and the croupier reminded, "Sir, please restrain yourself."

"Sorry, sorry—" Lin Dong sat back down, apologizing to the people around him, yet he couldn’t hide the excitement on his face.

Watching the chips in front of him go from single digits to a small pile, he tried hard to suppress his emotions and tremblingly whispered to Chu Ge, "Bro, you’re too freaking awesome. If I had your skills, why would I need to worry about money!"

Chu Ge glanced at him, calmly saying, "Continue, it might’ve been just luck this time."

Yet even though Chu Ge said this, what happened next left Lin Dong in awe of him.

Thirteen consecutive bets, Chu Ge called out the outcome every time before the croupier opened the jar, and the chips in front of Lin Dong grew from a few to several little mounds!

"Snap—" Sweat was now visible on the croupier’s forehead.

As the jar was placed down once more, Chu Ge whispered, "Small."

By now, Lin Dong had no hesitation. Hearing Chu Ge say this, he bet all his chips on small.

The croupier’s movements paused, looking at the small mountain of chips before him, large beads of sweat rolling down from his forehead.

Since a while ago, whatever this kid bet on, inevitably came true, as if he could predict the future. And now, the others around started to follow his bets too.

Now, everyone had bet on small!

"Man, aren’t we going a bit too far?" Looking at the suddenly quiet atmosphere, Lin Dong nervously spoke to Chu Ge.

Actually, after winning four rounds in a row, Lin Dong was ready to change location, knowing the rules of these places from frequenting them so often. But what he didn’t expect was Chu Ge, who had been quiet except for calling out the results, suddenly telling him, "Stay here, don’t change places."

"You’re aware of overstepping, too!" Just then, a voice laced with huskiness and seduction suddenly came from behind the two.

Instantly, all eyes in the surrounding area gathered behind Lin Dong, all the men blushed and began to breath heavily.

But Lin Dong turned around, looking at the woman who had appeared behind him and completely petrified.

Only Chu Ge, with no change in expression, simply looked indifferently at the woman in a red dress, occasionally glancing at the two old men behind her.

Indeed, Nangong Man Sha had somehow arrived!

"Miss... Miss Man Sha!" The croupier looked at Nangong Man Sha, swallowed, and suddenly, as if realizing something, his face turned pale, and he quickly bowed his head, not daring to meet her eyes again.

"You can step down." Nangong Man Sha waved her hand, and the croupier, as if granted amnesty, bowed to Nangong Man Sha before quickly departing.

"Handsome guy, you’ve really got a cruel heart." Nangong Man Sha stood where the croupier had been, her gaze swept from Lin Dong and finally settled on Chu Ge, "It’s hard enough for a fragile woman to live in this society, I managed to get a place on this cruise ship to run an entertainment venue hoping to make some money, but your arrival has made all my efforts go down the drain!"

A formidable woman!

That was the first thought that came to Chu Ge’s mind. Just a glance allowed him to deduce that the person who was actually behind everything was Chu Ge himself.

And it was then that Chu Ge was slightly astonished to discover that this woman’s pupils were blood red, definitely not any eye tattoos or cosmetic contacts. He sensed with his power that there were no foreign objects in her eyes. That is, this woman was born with Blood Eyes!

Yet these blood-colored pupils did not make her repulsive but added an indescribable charm and seductiveness.

Hearing Nangong Man Sha speak like this, all the men around glared at Lin Dong with anger. If looks could kill, Lin Dong would have been chopped into pieces by now.

Faced with this kind of pressure, Lin Dong did not hesitate and directly sold out Chu Ge, "Uh, don’t look at me. I’m just a puppet, this is the real deal. My brother here is known as the ’Gambling God’ of Huaxia, unmatched in all of Huaxia!"

Hearing Lin Dong’s shameless words, even someone with Chu Ge’s stability couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
