Chapter 101: Chapter 101: A Ga Decides the Victor
“Fine, I’ll bet with you. Shall we decide the winner in one round?”
Her hand rested on the bamboo cup, and a hint of a smile could not be concealed at the corner of her mouth.
A pair of bright eyes flashed with excitent.
“Good. Would you like to bet big or bet small?”
Xiao Tan’s voice sounded pleasant, soft, neither cold nor warm.
Just like lukewarm water, tasteless to drink, but quenching one’s thirst.
“Bet small.”
Su Yan believed that a true gambling expert should always bet small.
Because dice can be infinitely small, but not infinitely large.
“Agreed. However, I have one condition,” Xiao Tan said with a smile.
“What’s the condition?”
Su Yan knew that gambling with him wouldn’t be so straightforward.
“If the lady wins, this Gambling House will belong to the lady, and I will present ten thousand taels of Silver. If I win…”
Xiao Tan paused, and Su Yan stared at him curiously, waiting for what he would say next.
He smiled again and said, “The lady must agree to do sothing for , no matter what it is.”
Su Yan furrowed her brows, “What if you ask to do sothing that’s against morality or conscience?”
“Rest assured, I will never ask the lady to do such things. My request will be within the lady’s capabilities.”
Su Yan thought about it and felt that whether she won or lost, she wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.
However, what could Xiao Tan need her to do?
Could it be that he knew her identity and wanted to use it for sothing?
But he had said it wouldn’t be anything terrible, and it would also be within her capabilities, so his request should be manageable.
Besides, she might not necessarily lose.
After weighing her thoughts for a mont, Su Yan nodded and said,
“Alright, I agree to your terms—let’s bet on that.”
Xiao Tan pursed his lips with a light chuckle, his profound eyes glimring with a barely discernible dark light.
He extended his hand, gesturing politely, “Please go ahead, lady.”
“I won’t stand on ceremony, then.” Su Yan grasped the bamboo cup, her lips curling into a slight smile.
With a flick of her wrist, a cascade of click-clack sounds followed, and she once again covered the cup on the table.
“I’m going to reveal it now.”
