Chapter 264: Mental Overdraft

Chapter 264: Chapter 264: Mental Overdraft

Three dice, 2, 3, 4.

Eight points, small.

But when Hu Qi removed the cover, his middle finger clearly tapped on top.

The movement was subtle, and the others couldn’t see it clearly.

Long Fei revealed a slight smile, he indeed saw everything clearly.

The dice inside jumped, turning into 2, 3, 6.

As the cover of the dice cup was half-revealed, Hu Qi, confident, exclaimed, "11 points, big!"

But when the cover was lifted, the people around burst into laughter.

Lin Yingying’s hand was tightly clutching Long Fei’s arm; it was her first time betting so big, and it was fake to say she wasn’t nervous.

No wonder people always say, gambling harms people.

Damn, if this losing streak continues,

even a fortune of over a hundred million wouldn’t suffice.

Hu Qi, hearing the laughter, knew something bad happened, and upon a closer look, the dice in the cup were 1, 2, 3!

"Damn it!"

Wuu Yaodong stared at Long Fei, his eyes blood red.

He clenched his fist and couldn’t help but to slam it on the gambling table.

He and Tan Yaozong disappointedly glanced at Hu Qi, thinking, damn, and you still call yourself Ghost Hand. No wonder others have chopped off all your fingers, you’re just an old fraud.

The croupier’s forehead broke out in cold sweat, staring dumbly at Hu Qi, her fingers trembling.

At such a critical moment, she thanked her lucky stars she had called Hu Qi over.

If it had been her managing the dice cup, she would be scolded to death by these wealthy young men.

"6 points, small!"

Hu Qi’s face turned red and without adding anything else, he professionally announced the outcome.

He knew he had met a true expert today.

Never would he have thought that in all his glory, he would lose to a young man today.

Lin Yingying laughed gleefully, grabbing a pile of chips and tossing them into the air, shouting to everyone, "Come, everyone gets a share!"

Just now, a crowd of gamblers all spoke up for them, and Lin Yingying was quite grateful.

The chips clattered to the ground, all being ten-thousand-dollar large chips, causing a commotion as everyone thanked them and scrambled to pick them up.

With her casual toss, she had thrown out at least a million dollars.

But it didn’t matter, after all, this money was easily won.

Long Fei said to Wuu Yaodong with a light chuckle, "Young Master Wuu, do you want to continue playing?"

Wuu Yaodong took a deep breath and raised his eyes to look at Hu Qi.

Hu Qi shook his head, his intention clear, he had conceded defeat.

Just now Long Fei was two meters away from the dice cup, and no part of his body touched the dice cup.

In the final moment, the dice inside had switched automatically.

This level of gambling skill was beyond Hu Qi’s understanding.

He remembered the last time he faced off with a high-level expert from Las Vegas, who also used such tactics.

Wuu Yaodong pointed at Long Fei and cursed, "Just my luck today, I won’t quibble with you. See you in the boxing ring later, and we’ll see how you die!"

He left with his entourage, for tens of millions was not a small sum.

Even the Wuu Corporation, wealthy as it was, couldn’t withstand many losses like this.

Long Fei didn’t make a fuss; having lost money, he had to let the man vent a bit.

He instructed a playboy bunny looking girl by his side to take the chips and exchange them at the counter, then deposit them into his bank account.

This place was more impressive than Ma Kui’s small setup; the dirty money could be deposited directly into an account.

Even if someone investigated, they’d find nothing.

The account, after all, was opened overseas and the money was transferred to China after many switches, turning it all into legitimate property.

Lin Yingying, hugging Long Fei’s arm, was ecstatic with excitement, her expression as innocent as a little girl’s.

She had never been this happy even when transferring money from her business.

After getting into the elevator with Long Fei, she stealthily asked, "How did you win just now?"

Long Fei’s face suddenly turned haggard, and he placed his hand on Lin Yingying’s shoulder, instructing her, "Don’t talk, help me back to the room, and contact Chu Feng right away."

Seeing him like this, Lin Yingying’s heart became flustered, fearing that he had been hexed with some sorcery.

She pulled out a walkie-talkie from her bag and quickly got in touch with Chu Feng.

Since there were no cell phone signals at sea, Chu Feng had bought this especially before boarding the ship.

She supported Long Fei into a room and as soon as he entered, he collapsed onto the bed and immediately closed his eyes.

Shortly after, there was a knock at the door.

Lin Yingying looked through the peephole and, after confirming it was Chu Feng, opened the door.

He yawned and asked lazily, "What’s up?"

Lin Yingying closed the door, pulled him over to Long Fei’s bed, and urgently said, "Can you quickly check on him and see what’s wrong?"

Chu Feng furrowed his brow and, seeing that Long Fei’s eyes were tightly closed, immediately put his hand under Long Fei’s nose.

"He’s still breathing, he’s fine!"

Chu Feng breathed a sigh of relief and lifted Long Fei’s eyelids to have a look.

His eyes looked normal, just extremely tired from sleep.

Lin Yingying also breathed a sigh of relief, having thought for a moment that Long Fei, like in the movies, had been cursed.

Chu Feng asked her, "What have you two been up to that made him so exhausted?"

Lin Yingying replied, "We didn’t do much, just played a couple of games."

She suddenly remembered that time before, when they looked at gamble stones.

Long Fei came out looking the same way, collapsing in the car and falling asleep.

Thinking about it, she immediately realized.

It must have been because Long Fei had used too much of his spiritual power just now, which is why he ended up like this.

"You guys went gambling?"

Chu Feng exclaimed, wearing a look of utter disbelief.

The Lin Yingying and Long Fei he knew were nothing like gamblers, always the obedient types.

He would never have imagined they’d actually gamble.

"Why are you making such a fuss?"

Lin Yingying gave him a glare, untied Long Fei’s shoelaces, helped him lie down comfortably, and then covered him with a blanket.

Chu Feng asked curiously, "Did you win or lose?"

Lin Yingying proudly curled her lips and boasted, "Of course we won, and we won a lot at that!"

She put up an index finger.

Chu Feng’s brow furrowed as he asked, "A million?"

Lin Yingying chuckled and said, "A million is nothing, it was ten million!"

"What?"

Chu Feng’s mouth hung wide open, his face filled with disbelief as he said, "You two were able to win that much?"

"Shocked, aren’t you?"

Lin Yingying laughed, her face playfully gleaming, "We are like living gods of gambling. If we hadn’t taken pity on that boss, a hundred million would’ve been easily ours. If you don’t believe it, go ask the gamblers downstairs!"

Chu Feng gave them a serious once-over and when looking at Long Fei again, he was sure the kid must have gained some new skills.

He took out his phone and checked the time; it was just past eight, still over three hours until midnight.

By then, he wasn’t sure whether Long Fei would be able to wake up.

Lin Yingying asked him worriedly, "So, who do you think is more formidable, Markus or Long Fei?"

Chu Feng shook his head and said, "I don’t know. I watched him closely today. He appeared calm and seemed to have some sort of backup. In terms of real skill, he’s no match for Brother Long. But if he resorts to some underhanded tricks, Brother Long might still face a tough battle."

Lin Yingying rubbed her temple and said regretfully, "It’s all my fault. If not for me, he wouldn’t have all these troubles."

Chu Feng chuckled, "What, feeling sorry for your man?"

Lin Yingying blushed, glanced at him, and said, "Can’t you just have a serious conversation with me?"

"Am I not seriously talking to you now?"

Chu Feng’s face was all playfulness.

Lin Yingying hung her head and sighed softly, "I would really like to feel sorry for him, but his heart is set on someone else. This is all your doing, if you hadn’t encouraged him to chase after Wang Xiaoya, none of this would’ve happened!"

She lifted her head, her face full of reproach as she looked at Chu Feng.

Chu Feng protested innocently, "Big sister, we were rivals before. Isn’t it normal for me to have used such tactics? If you’re still blaming me, then we can’t be friends anymore."

Lin Yingying asked him, "So tell me, are you supporting me in being with him, or do you think Wang Xiaoya should be with him?"

Chu Feng laughed and said, "Whether I support you or not doesn’t matter, does it? The choice is in Brother Long’s hands; it all comes down to his decision."

He found it somewhat awkward, suddenly having this heart-to-heart conversation with Lin Yingying.

In the past, no matter how he looked at this female CEO, nothing about her pleased him.

Every time they met, she always had an air of superiority about her.

Now, it looked like she was just an ordinary woman after all.

When it came to emotions, she wasn’t even as good as Zhang Li.

Lin Yingying looked troubled and asked him, "Then give me some advice, how can I win over Little Ya?"

She looked at Chu Feng, knowing he was full of clever ideas.
