Xuexue frowned slightly, thinking that this croupier can also mislead people, and said coldly, "You shake it, we’ll talk after you’re done."
The croupier was taken aback for a mont, then imdiately laughed and said, "Alright, it seems both Young Masters are experts. I won’t try to fool you, listen carefully."
Little Tiger impatiently slapped the table and said in a childish voice, "Enough with the chatter, let’s get started!"
Because Little Tiger looked only four or five years old, he was extrely cute and chubby. When he got angry like this, not only were people not frightened, they found him utterly adorable and burst out laughing...
"Croupier, hurry up, the Little Young Master can’t wait any longer."
The croupier quickly picked up the dice cup and started shaking it, thinking that with this wealthy Little Young Master, he couldn’t afford to offend him.
Last ti at the Ever-Victorious Gambling House, because Xiao Taohong helped, they won quite a bit of money. This ti, Xuexue decided to rely on herself. As the croupier shook the dice cup, she listened carefully...
"Slam...!"
The croupier shook hard for a while, then suddenly slamd the dice cup onto the table and yelled to the gamblers, "Bet big or small? Hurry and place your bets if you want to get rich!"
Xuexue leaned close to Little Tiger’s ear and whispered, "Let’s bet big."
Little Tiger also whispered, "Are you sure you heard right?"
"No doubt, it’s big."
In recent tis, Xuexue’s martial power had improved significantly, so hearing a dice’s sound should be no problem.
Little Tiger hesitated no more, placed half of his silver note on the table, and said, "We bet big."
The nearby gamblers closely watched them, seeing Little Tiger place two thousand taels without blinking an eye, they all gasped, thinking, this Little Kid, despite his size, was truly bold. Even they couldn’t match his bravado.
"I bet small."
"I bet big."
The gamblers called out one after another, and finally, the shouting ceased.
The croupier opened the dice cup and indeed, it was big.
The Gambling House’s rule was to double the payout. Little Tiger had bet two thousand taels, so now it was four thousand taels. Everyone envied them and praised Little Tiger’s luck in winning two thousand taels so easily.
For the second round, Little Tiger put all four thousand taels on the table, boldly declaring, "Bet small."
The croupier opened the dice cup again, and it was indeed small. His face twitched for a mont but he said nothing, giving Little Tiger eight thousand taels.
Xuexue kept her eyes on the croupier and saw him quickly switch to another dice cup under the table, knowing there was definitely sothing fishy. It’s common for gambling houses to use rcury in dice; otherwise, if everyone won, how could the gambling house stay in business?
After the switch, the croupier continued shaking the dice as if nothing had happened. His palms were sweating; losing so much Silver wasn’t an option again this ti, or else the Owner wouldn’t let him off.
Little Tiger whispered to Xuexue again, "Is it big or small this ti?"
Winning two rounds made Little Tiger a bit intoxicated with success.
At that mont, they heard soone nearby say coldly, "Bet big."
His voice was distinct, low and magnetic, very pleasant to the ear, starkly different from the gamblers’ excited voices.
Xuexue looked up and was surprised to see Lin Kong, clad in a dark outfit, sitting leisurely by their side, unknown from when he had arrived.
They hadn’t noticed him at all. Xuexue’s first instinct was to grab Little Tiger and flee imdiately, but then she thought, since she was disguised as a boy, Lin Kong definitely hadn’t recognized her.
