Jack looked at Ye Luo as he spoke, but before he could finish his last few words, his speech abruptly ca to a halt as if he was choked, his eyes seemingly witnessing sothing unbelievable.
At this mont, the entire casino’s air seed to have frozen, everyone’s gaze widened in disbelief at the scene before them.
With just a gentle blow from Ye Luo toward the table, the six dice astonishingly turned into a pile of white ash that scattered away. In the blink of an eye, the dice ceased to exist, leaving behind only a pile of white ash, rendering onlookers speechless and incredulous.
"This..."
Peter and Jack’s eyes were wide open, their expressions filled with fear. This scene seed like magic, as if both had taken a great blow.
"Now, do you see clearly? Is this six points? There’s clearly not a single point, so sorry, Mr. Gambling King, you guessed wrong," Ye Luo couldn’t help but laugh.
"How can this be?" Peter remained in disbelief.
"You cheated!" Jack suddenly pointed at Ye Luo and exclaid.
"I cheated? How did I cheat when I didn’t even touch the dice? How could that be cheating, isn’t it clear there was not a single point? Could it be that Master Jack doesn’t want to pay up?" Ye Luo snorted coldly.
Jack’s fists creaked with tension, his expression extrely unsightly.
"Master Jack, we still have hope," Peter suddenly said.
Jack was startled, then glanced at the dice cup in front of Peter and blurted out, "That’s right, we still have hope. Now it’s your turn to guess, boy. If you don’t guess Peter’s points right, this round will be a draw."
The crowd grew curious once more whether Ye Luo could guess Peter’s points. After these events, they realized this Huaxia man was certainly not simple and had garnered their serious attention.
Ye Luo glanced at the dice cup in front of Peter and stated directly, "Forty-two points."
Huh?
Hearing Ye Luo’s guess, the crowd was puzzled. How could six dice have so many points? Could he have guessed wrong?
However, the crowd did not notice Peter’s complexion drastically change upon hearing Ye Luo’s guess, his body trembling and pupils dilated with a hint of dispersal.
"Well? Peter, did he guess it right?" Jack asked urgently, but the latter seed to be frozen, motionless.
Jack opened the dice cup himself and imdiately staggered, nearly collapsing on the spot.
The six dice in front of Peter had incredibly split into halves, showing twelve faces with the dots three, three, four, four, two, two, five, five, one, one, six, six—added up precisely to forty-two points.
Ye Luo had guessed right!
To have guessed such a point total was simply miraculous.
At this mont, Jack’s heart felt as though it had been completely shattered, his pride broken, his complexion turning extrely unsightly in an instant.
"Thank you for your necklace, Master Jack, I won’t stand on ceremony," Ye Luo said with a smile lifting the corners of his mouth as he grabbed the box containing the necklace with the Eye of the Crystal.
"Don’t!"
Jack reacted, reaching out for the Eye of the Crystal, but it had already been seized by Ye Luo.
"What? Does Master Jack intend to go back on his word in front of so many people and Her Highness the Princess?" Ye Luo snorted coldly.
"You..." Jack’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Ye Luo, his teeth clenched, shouting, "I still want to gamble with you!"
Jack had now completely turned into a gambler unwilling to concede defeat, desperate to turn his fortune around.
"I’m sorry, but you no longer have the capital to gamble with ," Ye Luo said extrely arrogantly and walked out of the casino.
As for Jack, his face turned deathly pale, his noble deanor and pride shattered by Ye Luo, especially the last sentence from Ye Luo had made a surge of blood rush to his throat, nearly spraying out.
"Interesting!" Fate, who was in the distance, watched Ye Luo leaving with a mysterious smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
After leaving the casino, Ye Luo returned to his room, feeling imnsely refreshed, having easily earned 16 million US Dollars, almost more than 100 million Huaxia Currency. The money had co too easily.
"Right, what was the string of account numbers and passwords that Momoe left behind before she died?"
A sudden thought struck Ye Luo—the account numbers and passwords that Yamaguchi Momoe had asked him to rember before her death, though he had no idea what they stood for.
"Could it be bank account details?" Ye Luo’s eyes sharpened as sothing occurred to him, and he borrowed a computer from Xue Na to start checking which bank this account belonged to.
"Swiss Bank!"
Finally, Ye Luo found out that this account number belonged to a Swiss Bank and began logging into it. Indeed, he successfully got in, but when he saw the balance on the account page, he was utterly stunned.
At the forefront was the digit three, followed by a long string of zeros.
"Unit, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand..."
"Three hundred billion!" After Ye Luo had counted all the zeros behind the number three, he was taken aback. The bank account had three hundred billion—what a staggering amount.
The 16 million US Dollars he had earned previously were insignificant in comparison to the three hundred billion, almost like comparing an elephant to an ant. It was important to note that even the top ten corporations in Huaxia barely had just over several hundred billion in net worth.
A corporation like Ling Corporation had a market value of just over fifty billion, and here he had enough to buy six Ling Corporations. Even Ye Luo, who had seen a lot in life, was profoundly shocked.
"Why would Yamaguchi Momoe entrust an account with so much money to ?" Ye Luo speculated on Momoe’s intentions, but it was beyond his knowledge now.
Regardless, Ye Luo had now beco a billionaire many tis over.
As night fell, the cruise ship’s bar burst into life, transford into a birthday party scene. All the people on the ship had gathered here, and naturally, Ye Luo was among them.
"Princess Her Highness has arrived!"
With that announcent, Princess Xue Na entered the bar in a long white dress pure as snow, smiling, her entire being as beautiful and immaculate as the fairytale Snow White.
"Welco Your Highness the Princess, and happy 18th birthday!"
The crowd showered Princess Xue Na with blessings, and she, in turn, wore a beaming smile.
"Thank you for your blessings, and thank you for being here with on this important day," Xue Na said softly. Then, an enormous eighteen-tiered cake was wheeled out.
With the cake covered in candles, the lights in the bar were suddenly extinguished, and everyone started singing the birthday song in English. Xue Na also made a wish with her hands together and blew out all the candles.
