In the room, the chatter was incessant, but there was one commonality: no one present was betting on Chu Ge.

Even Lin Dong sighed, his eyes showing a tint of despair.

Of course, this guy being so opportunistic, naturally wasn’t feeling sorry for Chu Ge, but rather bemoaning the tens of millions he had won before. Now, it looked like those profits would go down the drain.

"Bring another pair of dice." Nangong Man Sha stared deeply at Chu Ge and then said to the waiter at the door.

Suit-clad waiters quickly produced a brand-new pair of dice and set them before Chu Ge.

"Miss Man Sha, please be the witness for this gambling match!" Chu Xiao glanced at Nangong Man Sha, hiding the fiery passion in his eyes, and spoke with a gentle smile.

"Don’t worry." Nangong Man Sha clearly understood Chu Xiao’s thoughts, nodded, and said, "I will witness this match, and whichever side loses must keep their promise; otherwise, I will intervene!"

"That’s good!" Chu Xiao faintly knew about Nangong Man Sha’s abilities, so he didn’t say more, but instead looked at Chu Ge and said, "Kid, are you ready?"

He had no intention of leaving Chu Ge any way out!

Chu Ge picked up the container, looked at it, and nodded: "Yeah, I’m ready."

From start to finish, he maintained a nonchalant demeanor, as if he hadn’t put this gambling match to heart at all.

Chu Xiao stared at him intently, after a few dozen seconds of silence, he suddenly said, "I’ll add another ten billion to the bet this time!"

"What?"

This time, everyone’s eyes were wide open, looking at Chu Xiao in utter shock.

A staggering twenty billion bet! If word of this got out, it would probably make international headlines and attract the attention of the entire world.

Lin Dong subtly retreated several steps, melding into the crowd, and inwardly mumbled to himself, "Big bro, don’t blame me for not helping you, I really couldn’t do anything about it. A twenty billion bet is too damn frightening. This kid is really out to get you. You high gods can fight it out, and I, a mere mortal, should better stay far away."

Not just the onlooking crowd, but even Nangong Man Sha’s eyebrows twitched, looking at Chu Xiao, she asked, "Are you serious?"

"Of course!" Seeing that his goddess seemed slightly impressed by him, Chu Xiao’s heart instantly filled with an unspeakable sense of satisfaction, "In fact, Miss Man Sha, if you only asked, whether it’s twenty or even forty billion, I – I would find a way to get it for you!"

Facing such an implied offer, almost any woman with a bit of avarice would be unable to resist. However, Nangong Man Sha just raised her eyebrows and looked at Chu Xiao, saying, "To receive such generous affection from Mr. Chu, I’m truly flattered. If one day I really can’t get by and come to you, you better not deceive me then!"

Chu Xiao’s face flushed red, and he watched Nangong Man Sha while nodding fervently, probably even if she asked him to jump into the sea right now, he would not hesitate in the slightest!

And the men around him looked at Chu Xiao with eyes full of envy.

Only Chu Ge, after glancing over the two, suddenly chuckled softly.

He noticed that when Nangong Man Sha said those words, a fleeting cold glint flashed through the depths of her eyes!

"What about Mr. Chu here; what do you think? Speaking of which, it’s quite a coincidence, both of you have the surname Chu, you could say you belong to the same clan!" Nangong Man Sha looked at Chu Ge, then covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Humph, who is in the same clan as him?" Chu Xiao snorted coldly.

Chu Ge ignored him. At this moment, he actually felt a bit sorry for Chu Xiao, who was being toyed with and applauded by others, yet remained blissfully unaware.

After hearing Nangong Man Sha’s question, Chu Ge fell silent for a moment, then looked at Chu Xiao and said, "Two billion, you’ve bet your entire fortune, haven’t you?"

"Hmph!" Chu Xiao glanced at Nangong Man Sha and said, "That’s right, my current net worth adds up to just two billion. But what you should be worried about right now is yourself."

"Is that right?" Chu Ge completely ignored the latter part of his statement and earnestly said to him, "I’ll give you a chance to back out now while you still can."

It wasn’t that he had suddenly become benevolent, but rather, Chu Ge had suddenly become somewhat interested in this woman, Nangong Man Sha. Of course, it was not the type of interest between a man and a woman.

"Give me a chance?" Chu Xiao pointed to his own nose and suddenly burst into loud laughter, "Hahahaha, did you hear that? This kid actually said he’s giving me a chance?"

It wasn’t just Chu Xiao; everyone in the room looked at Chu Ge and burst into ridicule.

Chu Ge shook his head, "All right, if that’s the case... let’s gamble!"

He had already offered him a chance, but since the man was hell-bent on digging his own grave, there was no reason for him to hold back.

Chu Xiao’s laughing ceased as his right hand covered the container, "Humph, you arrogant brat, thinking that just because you’ve luckily won a few rounds, you can do whatever you want? Today I’m going to give you a taste of desperation!"

While saying this, Chu Xiao’s right hand was rapidly shaking the container.

His dice shaking method was clearly different from that of others. Ordinary people use their whole arm to shake, professional croupiers use their forearms, but Chu Xiao relied on the strength of his wrist!

In fact, due to the rapid shaking of his wrist, his dice-shaking right hand even became blurred in the air, leaving behind faint afterimages.

At this point, Nangong Man Sha also changed from her previous lazy demeanor, sitting up straight and staring intently at Chu Xiao’s rapidly moving hand.

"Bang—" Finally, with a thud, Chu Xiao slammed the container onto the tabletop.

"Are the dice ready?" Chu Ge asked directly, unaffected by his performance.

"I’ll reveal it first," said Chu Xiao.

Nangong Man Sha didn’t say anything but made a ’please go ahead’ gesture.

Chu Xiao sneered proudly, then slowly removed the lid.

"Hiss—"

Instantly, a collective gasp echoed throughout the hall.

"How... how is this possible?" A man shook as he pulled out his glasses from his chest, put them on, and stared intently at the dice in front of Chu Xiao.

"Truly worthy of the Gambling King!" An old man, trembling with excitement, muttered, "This... this is a scene only found in movies; I never thought I’d witness it with my own eyes in reality!"

Some went so far as to take out their smartphones to take pictures.

Even Nangong Man Sha was silent for a good ten seconds before she smiled and said, "Truly worthy of Mr. Chu Xiao, who’s touted as the Asian Gambling King. Just this skill alone, I guess, would make you invincible in the casino world!"

In front of Chu Xiao, three dice were stacked atop one another, with the topmost die showing a single dot.

That is to say, he had shaken the dice to all land on the number one.
