Chapter 69: Poor Psychological Quality

At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the dice cup. When the lid was slowly lifted, there were three sixes inside.

"He won! This Young man actually won again! He won against Zhao Sanye!"

"He won over three hundred million at once! My goodness, that's so much money, he couldn't spend it all in several lifetimes…"

"Oh my god, this Young man's luck is truly Heaven-Defying! Why don't I have such good luck…"

The surrounding gamblers were quite excited, as they were only spectators.

At this moment, Luo Wentao's face was extremely gloomy, as if water could drip from it at any moment. He couldn't understand how Zhao Sanye, who had always been invincible, could lose.

And at this moment, Zhao Sanye, holding the lid of the dice cup in one hand, stared intently at the three dice in front of him, his face a pale grey, completely devoid of his previous composure and calmness.

After a few seconds, he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, which landed on the three dice.

He had dominated the gambling world for so many years, yet today he had lost to a Young man of about 20, and he had lost over three hundred million in one go.

This shock was more than he could bear. His eyes rolled back, and he fainted just like Ghost Hand Old Eight.

"Holy cow, he even vomited blood. His psychological fortitude is really too poor."

Ye Bufan shook his head in disdain. He turned to Luo Wentao and said, "Luo Da Shao, are you still playing? If not, exchange my chips for me!"

Luo Wentao's expression was gloomy, and he didn't speak immediately. Just then, a voice shouted, "Kid, do you have a death wish? How dare you cheat in our Paradise Club!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and it was the casino's bodyguard captain speaking.

Ye Bufan glanced at him and said, "Which eye of yours saw me cheating? From the beginning until now, the dice cup has always been in the dealer's hand. I haven't even touched the gambling table once. How do you say I cheated?"

"That's right, I've been watching the whole time. The Young man hasn't even moved a finger. How could he be cheating?"

"I think so too. This is purely luck, but to get big numbers more than ten times in a row, this luck is simply off the charts…"

"You think the casino might be losing too much and wants to renege on the debt?"

"Speak softly, we can't afford to offend them…"

"I…" Hearing the discussions around him, the bodyguard captain's words faltered, then he shouted, "You've won so many times in a row, and you've bet on big numbers every time. You must have been cheating!"

"Is your Paradise Club so unreasonable?" Ye Bufan turned to Luo Wentao, "Luo Da Shao, I said I wasn't playing, but you insisted I play. Now that you've lost, you're saying I cheated. Are you unable to afford the loss?"

Qin Chuchu also couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Luo Wentao, you just said that your casino could afford to pay no matter how much money. Are you really going to renege?"

Luo Wentao's mind was in a fierce struggle. Deep down, he really didn't want to pay this money. After all, it was over three hundred million chinese yuan. Even if the Luo Family was rich, this was not the way to lose money.

But the most important thing for a casino is its reputation. If they didn't pay, their reputation would be completely ruined, and they would probably have to close down in the future.

Moreover, he had been pursuing Qin Chuchu. As long as he won over this Qin Family Young Miss, it would be equivalent to taking over the entire Qin's Group. At that time, let alone 300 million chinese yuan, he could earn back even 3 billion.

And even if Ye Bufan took these 300 million chinese yuan, having offended the Luo Family, he would have the money but not the life to spend it. In the end, it would still be their family's money.

Thinking of this, he smiled slightly at Qin Chuchu: "Chu Chu, you underestimate me, Luo Wentao, too much. What I value most is my reputation. Even if I lose the entire Paradise Club, I will not renege.

Besides, our Luo Family has a large business and doesn't lack this bit of money."

After speaking, he said to the bodyguard captain, "Shut your stinking mouth and quickly go exchange the chips for Mr. Ye."

Since the boss had spoken, the bodyguard captain said nothing more and took Ye Bufan's bank card to the counter to exchange the chips.

"Luo Da Shao is indeed a straightforward person." Ye Bufan said, "I feel like my luck hasn't run out today. How about we play a few more rounds?"

Hearing this, Luo Wentao's heart twitched. He thought, "Are you treating our family like a bank? If we gamble again, that would be over 600 million."

However, he naturally couldn't say such words of surrender in public. He smiled slightly and said, "Let's call it a day. The auction is about to begin. If you're interested, we can play another time."

Ye Bufan said, "Alright, whenever I'm short on money, I'll come to Paradise Club to get some."

Hearing this, Luo Wentao felt an urge to vomit blood. This guy really thought of him as an ATM.

At this moment, he had already sentenced Ye Bufan to death in his heart. As soon as today was over, he would find a way to get rid of this kid.

At this time, the bodyguard captain returned with the bank card. Ye Bufan's phone also made a 'ding' sound. He checked it and saw that 320 million chinese yuan had been deposited.

Seeing that long string of numbers, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion. In less than an hour, he had become a billionaire.

No wonder so many people were addicted to gambling. He wanted to say that this feeling of getting something for nothing was truly awesome.

Since he had already made up his mind to get rid of the other party, Luo Wentao regained his previous elegance and composure, and said to Qin Chuchu, "The auction hall is in Hall 2. Let's go there."

The three of them left Hall 1 and arrived at the auction hall. At this time, everything for the auction was ready and about to begin.

As it was a small auction held by the upper class, there weren't too many guests in the hall, about 100 people, but any one of them was a billionaire.

Luo Wentao led the two to the very front row, where seats had been reserved for them in advance.

As soon as he sat down, his phone rang.

After glancing at the caller ID, Luo Wentao took his phone aside to answer.

"Butler, is there anything?"

The voice on the other end of the phone said, "Young Master, Great Master Xuanji saw the auction poster while he was in seclusion earlier and asked me to inform you that you must bid for that black bottle."

"That black bottle? What's it for?"

Luo Wentao was already familiar with the auction items for today and didn't think there was anything special about that bottle.

The butler said, "I'm not sure about that."

"Did the Great Master say when he would come out of seclusion? Will he come to the club?"

The butler said, "Great Master Xuanji said he would come out of seclusion around evening and would then go to the club."

Luo Wentao hung up the phone. This matter was simple for him.

During the bidding later, he only needed to announce that this item was something Great Master Xuanji wanted, and no one would dare to bid against him. He could just take it at the reserve price.

After all, Great Master Xuanji had a super strong influence in the upper society of Jiangnan, and no one dared to snatch things from a Great Master whose Dao was connected to the gods.
