Chapter 66 I Believe in Luck

Luo Wentao sneered inwardly. This Young man was still too naive and had been drawn into the trap with just a few words.

In his opinion, as long as the opponent got to the gambling table, his future fate would be in his own hands. He could completely control everything about him, making him prostrate at his feet like a dog.

Thinking this, he said cordially, “Mr. Ye, what do you plan to play?”

Ye Bufan said, “Let’s play dice. It’s simple; you just need to know big or small.”

“Alright, then we’ll play dice,” Luo Wentao said. “Mr. Ye, let’s exchange some chips first.”

He led the two of them to the chip exchange counter. Ye Bufan said, “Give me 200 chinese yuan in chips.”

The server said, “I’m sorry, sir, but this is our VIP room. The minimum chip value is 10,000 chinese yuan per chip.”

Ye Bufan shook his head, “That expensive!”

Although he had money now, his mindset was still the same as before. 10,000 chinese yuan was an absolute fortune to him a few days ago, but here it was just a chip for the rich.

A hint of mockery flashed across Luo Wentao’s face as he said, “Mr. Ye, you didn’t bring money, did you? If not, I can lend you some.”

This was also his main goal. As long as Ye Bufan borrowed his money, he would fall into a trap and wouldn’t be able to climb out.

Qin Chuchu said, “Xiaofan, did you not bring money? You can use mine.”

“No need, I have money here.”

As Ye Bufan spoke, he took out two stacks of hundred-chinese yuan bills from his pocket and threw them onto the counter.

He originally had 30,000 chinese yuan in cash, but after spending some on hotels and other things these past few days, he only had 20,000 chinese yuan left in whole bills.

Luo Wentao said, “Mr. Ye, aren’t two chips a bit few? It’ll be hard to enjoy yourself fully, won’t it?”

Ye Bufan took the two yellow chips handed to him by the server and said, “It’s fine. My luck has always been very good. I’m just afraid that I’ll win too much later and the casino won’t be able to handle it.”

“Mr. Ye certainly knows how to tell a joke.” Luo Wentao laughed heartily, using it to hide his uncontrolled mockery from Qin Chuchu. “Mr. Ye, our Paradise Club values credibility above all else. As long as you have the skill, we can afford to pay whatever you win.”

Ye Bufan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief as he said, “That’s good. I was afraid that if I won too much later, Mr. Luo would renege on his debt.”

Luo Wentao said to Qin Chuchu, “Chu Chu, your friend is too fond of joking. I, Luo Wentao, may lack many things, but never money, and I never renege on a debt.”

(To be continued)

The reason he was so confident was, firstly, that Paradise Club indeed had substantial capital, with daily liquid assets maintained at hundreds of millions of chinese yuan.

Secondly, this was a casino. As the saying goes, ‘ten gambles, nine frauds.’ In high-end gambling establishments, this situation was even more severe; winning money purely by luck was almost impossible.

As long as he wished, he could completely manipulate every game here, letting whoever he wanted win and whoever he wanted lose.

In his eyes, winning money from a casino was harder than robbing a bank, so Ye Bufan’s words were completely a joke, and a huge one at that.

Ye Bufan smiled slightly, “Sometimes, no one believes the truth.”

“Then let’s see how Mr. Ye’s luck is.” Luo Wentao said, leading Ye Bufan and the other person to a gambling table and saying to the dealer, “Play dice with this gentleman, big or small.”

As he spoke, he gave the dealer a gesture that outsiders couldn’t understand, meaning to give Ye Bufan a hard time. Although he had only exchanged two chips for now, he would naturally go back for more once he lost them all.

The dealer picked up the dice cup in front of him, and after a series of fancy shakes, placed it upside down on the gambling table. Then he lifted the dice cup and politely said, “Sir, there are three dice inside. Nine points or less is small, and ten points or more is big. Please place your bet.”

Ye Bufan weighed the two chips in his hand and said, “I like everything big. So I’ll bet big.”

After speaking, he placed one yellow chip on the ‘big’ position.

He had seen clearly: the three dice in the cup were two sixes and one five, totaling seventeen points.

“Sir, your bet is placed. I’m opening it.”

The dealer finished speaking and abruptly lifted the lid of the dice cup. Inside were two ones and one two, totaling four points, which was small.

“Sir, I’m sorry, you lost this round.”

The dealer finished speaking and directly took away Ye Bufan’s chip.

Luo Wentao sneered, “Mr. Ye, it seems your luck isn’t as good as you imagined!”

“It’s nothing, this is just the beginning.”

Ye Bufan merely smiled slightly. This chip was just a test to see if there were any tricks in the casino.

The facts proved that casinos indeed don’t rely entirely on luck. The dealer subtly flipped the dice at the moment he opened the cup, changing the original seventeen points (big) to four points (small).

Qin Chuchu said, “Xiaofan, why don’t I go exchange some more chips for you?”

Ye Bufan shook his head, holding the yellow chip in his hand, and said, “No need, this one is enough for me.”

(To be continued)

As he spoke, he once again placed that chip on the ‘big’ position. “This time, I’m still betting big.”

Luo Wentao sneered, “Mr. Ye is truly confident. The dealer hasn’t even started shaking the dice yet.”

Ye Bufan said indifferently, “It’s okay, I believe in my luck.”

Luo Wentao said to the dealer, “Then let’s begin. Let everyone see how Mr. Ye’s luck is.”

The dealer nodded, the dice cup flying up and down in his hand, then it clapped down onto the gambling table.

When he opened the lid, Luo Wentao didn’t even look, smiling as he said to Ye Bufan, “Mr. Ye, it seems luck isn’t on your side again.”

Ye Bufan said, “You’re wrong, I won this round.”

Everyone then looked at the dice cup, only to see three dice: two fours and one five, totaling thirteen points, which was big.

Qin Chuchu excitedly exclaimed, “We won! We really won!”

“Then congratulations, Mr. Ye!”

Luo Wentao said this, but glared fiercely at the dealer, clearly very displeased with his performance.

The dealer was also completely bewildered. He had manipulated the dice to be 1, 2, 3, totaling six points (small), so how did everything change when he opened the lid?

However, since the result was out, they couldn’t renege. The dealer could only return another yellow chip.

Ye Bufan directly placed both chips on the ‘big’ position. “When my luck comes, there’s no stopping it. This time, I’m still betting big.”

Luo Wentao smiled and said, “Then I wish Mr. Ye to win more.”

The dealer once again picked up the dice cup. This time, his expression became much more serious. After shaking it up, down, left, and right, he placed it upside down on the gambling table again.

As the lid was lifted, everyone’s gaze went to it, revealing three sixes, which was as big as it could get.

Ye Bufan laughed, “I told you, luck will definitely be on my side.”

After speaking, he didn’t take back any of the four yellow chips, placing them all on the ‘big’ position again.

Luo Wentao frowned and said to the dealer, “Begin.”

The dealer clearly realized his boss was displeased, but he was also full of doubts.

He had clearly manipulated the dice points, so why would they be completely different when he opened it? This situation had never occurred before.

This time, he brought out all his best tricks, shaking for a while with all his might, and after confirming it was correct, he placed it upside down on the gambling table.
