Su Mo threw the gun onto the table, casually clasped his fist to the boss, and said lazily, "Thanks for letting win~"
Whether it’s official or underground, anyone who gambles in Yadong has to face losses.
After all, there are too many gambling sites in Yadong, it’s a cutthroat market.
If you don’t follow the rules even a little, you’ll be abandoned by the guests, and the competitors are waiting to take advantage of your downfall.
So the boss didn’t try any tricks, allowing Su Mo and Qi Ling to pick up the briefcase and leave.
On the other hand, he didn’t have the mind to waste words with the two, because chaos had already engulfed the place.
Most of these gamblers are single, and even if they’ve interacted with so won, they’re nothing special; they’ve never seen a girl as pretty as Qi Ling.
The hairband that was tossed out earlier was a personal item, scented with the fragrance of Qi Ling’s hair, and the gamblers went crazy trying to snatch it, wanting to take it ho to sll and chuckle sinisterly.
In their frantic attempts to grab it, they ended up fighting, with whoever snagged it being pinned to the ground and beaten in a chaotic ss.
The boss cursed when he saw this, saying, "Useless idiots, it’s just a hairband, not underwear from *civilized Yadong*! Get soone over here to separate them—if anyone fights again, slap them twice!"
...
Su Mo and Qi Ling left the underground gambling den, found an empty ATM, and deposited the money into their accounts, splitting 3 million evenly.
After depositing the money, they held hands and walked down the city streets lit with lanterns.
Su Mo glanced at Qi Ling with a smile, "Hey, did you already know that my shot was a blank before daring to play so boldly with ?"
Qi Ling pressed her finger to her lips, tilting her head, "Hmm... how should I put it? I sensed sothing tricky from your eyes, but wasn’t completely sure; there was still so gamble involved."
Su Mo exclaid, "You dared to act without full certainty, weren’t you afraid of actually dying?"
A glimr of mystery flashed in Qi Ling’s eyes, and her voice dropped to a whisper, "If I died, would you miss ?"
Su Mo didn’t pick up on the mystery, waved his hand and said, "Don’t talk about such ominous things like dying. Seriously, you’re truly brave to dare playing along."
The unusual color in Qi Ling’s eyes quickly vanished, and she clung to Su Mo’s arm with a playful laugh, "Of course I trust Mo Mo—you said you’d never let die."
Su Mo shrugged, "True. Anyway, I only dared to play because I was completely certain."
Qi Ling asked curiously, "So how did you manage to do it? With a 36-round chamber having 35 bullets, how were you so sure you’d hit a blank?"
"It wasn’t a gamble—2.78% probability, it’s impossible to gamble on it," Su Mo pointed to his ear with a smile, "I heard it."
Qi Ling was puzzled, "Heard?"
Su Mo explained slowly, "Holding the gun, loading the bullets, all done by the people from the gambling den, I couldn’t tamper with it."
"But after getting the gun, I could spin the chamber, as many tis as I wanted; this is allowed under the ga rules."
"I kept spinning, kept spinning, while listening to the sound in the chamber."
"The sound between a blank and a loaded chamber is extrely subtle, ordinary people can’t distinguish it. But as an Extraordinary Being, I can hear it, ensuring I trigger a blank."
"That’s how it is..." Qi Ling was thoughtful, then said excitedly, "You could totally use this trick to make a fortune!"
Su Mo chuckled, "Anyone with the ability to distinguish that sound has long moved beyond such petty cash, no need to make it a full-ti job."
"Besides, it’s one thing to do it once or twice; if you use this trick every ti, the gambling den operators aren’t foolish—they’ll definitely notice sothing, it won’t last long."
Qi Ling: "True~"
Su Mo asked smugly, "How was it, fun right? This was thrilling enough, wasn’t it?"
Qi Ling deliberately snorted, "Just average."
"Ju...st...average..." Su Mo drooped, deflated, the excitent instantly drained.
Qi Ling blinked, filled with expectation, "Is there anything even more thrilling? Take to play."
Su Mo was shocked, "More thrilling??? You’re dreaming! There’s no more, really no more, I’ve used all my ultimate moves."
Qi Ling hugged Su Mo’s arm and kept shaking it, starting to act coquettishly, "Think about it, your imagination is so rich, you’re bound to co up with sothing."
"I’ll think about it later, let’s eat first, I’m starving, I’ll treat you to sothing delicious." Su Mo led Qi Ling towards a nearby upscale river-view restaurant.
It was alti, but the per capita consumption at this river-view restaurant was high, so there weren’t many people, no need to wait in line.
Upon entering, the waiter respectfully greeted them, "Good evening, sir, madam. Please, this way."
Su Mo coughed lightly, "Xiaoqi, go with the waiter to the private room first, I’ll go over there to see what’s on the nu."
"Okay." Qi Ling headed towards the private room.
The cashier at the counter was balancing the books when he suddenly heard a gentle call, "Hello."
The cashier looked up at Su Mo and stood up respectfully, "Hello, sir, how can I assist you?"
Su Mo scratched his head, sowhat embarrassed, "Um... could you do a favor?"
Cashier: "Please, sir, we’ll do our best to accommodate."
Su Mo lowered his voice like a thief, "I’m out on a date with that girl, want to surprise her with sothing unexpected."
"Could you do this—I’ll order the food and pay first, then after we finish eating I’ll pretend not to have paid, run off without paying, and you guys help act it out, holding the girl up and scaring her as much as possible!"
The cashier raised his thumb, "I get it, bridge effect! No worries, sir, we’ve had this request before, we’re quite experienced!"
