Chapter 485 - Oh f*ck (2/2)

Two hundred million?

Everyone in the room was stunned, especially the dealer and all the staff in the room. It was as if they were destined to be here today only to witness this shocking duel of cards. It was true that the more you compare yourself to others, the more you would be killing yourself, for they probably wouldn’t be able to earn this much money even in two lifetimes.

“Young master, this…”

The subordinate was troubled. Adding the hundred and twenty million earlier on, the total now added up to three hundred and twenty million. This was still a really huge sum of money, even if it was not in USD.

“What’s the problem here?” Leon said coldly.

“The family is keeping a close watch on all the young masters. Now is the most crucial period. If young master Leon loses three hundred million, the family will be very disappointed with you. Then, they most probably won’t hand over the family business to you in the future,” the subordinate explained, appealing for Leon to err towards caution.

Although he spoke in English, everyone could understand what he just said.

“You shut your mouth!”

Leon bellowed and silenced his subordinate with a ferocious scowl on his face. “My words are orders. Just do as you’re told. Otherwise, I’ll have you disappear from this world for good,” he snarled.

“Yes.”

That subordinate trembled and no longer dared to say anything else. He quickly took the black card and went to exchange for more gambling chips.

Leon turned around and faced Su Li. He changed his expression and put on a smile on his face. “Sabrina, actually, I have absolutely no idea what he was saying,” he said.

“Leon, I think it’s better to give up. We were schoolmates; I don’t want this to end up in conflict because of small things like this,” Su Li said, making a compelling point.

“No, no, no. I’ve already said it before. This is just ‘small gambling.’ It’s good for the spirits. Even if I lose all my money, it will not affect the friendship between you and me, and all the more won’t affect the partnership that we have already established,” Leon replied. He was doing all he could to hold on. He had the advantage in this round, and there was no way he would give up and let Xiao Luo off that easily.

Xiao Luo laughed and said, “Well said, Mr. Leon! A little bit of gambling is good for the spirits!”

He had already learned a secret gambling trick when he was in Jiangcheng and had the ability to memorize all the cards in a poker deck. No matter how the dealer shuffled the cards earlier on, he never looked away from this deck of cards. He had perfectly memorized the cards’ order in this deck and already knew what card Leon had. Xiao Luo also knew what card he would be receiving next. It was as if he had X-Ray eyes. He had already seen through it all and knew how this round was going to end.

“Mr. Xiao, I’ve already asked my man to exchange two hundred million, shouldn’t you go and exchange a little bit more as well?” Leon said, insinuating with a cheeky smile on his face.

“I’m not like you, Mr. Leon, I’m not that wealthy. I don’t have that much money.”

What Xiao Luo just said was true. While Luo Workshop might have the money, and it was possible to transfer billions of dollars over, the amount of money he had from in his own savings wasn’t a lot. Besides, he was also currently investing in the farm back at home.

Su Li took out her gold card without any hesitation and handed it over to the staff. “Please do exchange two hundred million for me, thank you,” she said.

“Alright, please give me a moment, Ma’am.”

The staff took the card, turned around, and left. All of them recognized Su Li, but there was a rule in this casino, and that was to pretend you didn’t know who they were, even if that person was a national leader. Only people with money and status would come to this casino. Poor people would never come to an exclusive place like this.

“What are you doing?”

Xiao Luo stared at Su Li blankly. Xiao Luo still could not consider themselves as husband and wife, yet this woman was so supportive of him right now, and it felt unreal.

“I’m lending it to you. If you lose it, you will have to somehow or rather find a way to return it for the rest of your life,” Su Li said. She had an awkward look on her face.

Shen Qingyan laughed and said, “What do you mean by return? You’re one family; after all, what’s yours is his as well.”

“What kind of rubbish are you saying…”

Su Li rebuked her friend for those remarks, but after listening to what Shen Qingyan had said, her face started turning red.

“Oh f*ck!”

Leon’s lungs were about to explode. After holding back all this while he finally cursed using a slang word on the internet. It felt like he was being forced to consume a bowl of dog food, except that the dog food he ate belonged to the girl he liked. The taste of it was horribly wrong.
