A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles-Chapter 549: Want to play big or small? Get rich overnight!
Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Want to play big or small? Get rich overnight!
Because of Dugu Xiao’s words, everyone started talking about the cheating again.
"Han Qianshou, you bastard, you’re really good at hiding them! Dice everywhere! You’ve won plenty of my money before, and I always blamed my bad luck."
"I can’t believe it was you, you little bastard, who was cheating! Give me back my damn hard-earned money!"
Hearing the gamblers’ words, Dugu Xiao and Ji Youzhi couldn’t help but laugh.
Han Qianshou’s clothes were stripped off, and the gamblers found a dozen or so dice on him. He was beaten black and blue.
The commotion had long been noticed by the people from Li’s Gambling House.
Behind the scenes, the manager, Sister Ying’Er, said to the two middle-aged men beside her, "That little girl is no simple character. Have you heard if she’s a plant from another gambling house?"
The two middle-aged men shook their heads.
"No, haven’t heard. A child that young... if she weren’t exceptionally talented, she probably couldn’t even tell the dots on the dice apart, right? How could she shake them so accurately? Every roll is a triple!"
"A child that young would struggle just to shake the dice cup, let alone roll the numbers she wants. In my opinion, it’s highly likely she’s cheating."
Sister Ying’Er shot a disdainful glance at the man who had spoken and sneered, "Cheating? Why don’t you try it and show me?"
The man who had said this choked.
How could he forget how sharp Sister Ying’Er’s eyes were? Cheating right under her nose was simply impossible.
"If she’s not cheating, then this child is just too incredible, isn’t she? She looks to be four or five at most, definitely no older than six, yet she has such power. With a few more years of training, wouldn’t she dominate the entire gambling world?"
"Send someone to find a way to probe her background!" Sister Ying’Er ordered softly.
Soon, an attendant ran off to do as she bid.
「With Xiaosuisui」
As Han Qianshou was being stripped, Ji Youzhi covered Xiaosuisui’s eyes and carried her to the side. The timid Zhao Fei followed them, carefully stowing the deeds for the house and land in his jacket.
Ji Youzhi didn’t let him follow their group but instead quietly instructed him about something.
Zhao Fei ran off with a solemn expression on his face.
Sister Ying’Er saw their subtle exchange and quickly ordered someone to tail Zhao Fei.
"Just see where he goes; that should be enough to confirm the identities of this group."
Ji Youzhi and the others roamed the main hall, watching gamblers bet on Big or Small. Xiaosuisui sniffed hard, trying to locate Ji Youran’s medicine box.
She called out, "Uncle!"
Ji Youzhi picked her up and whispered, "Did you figure out where it is?"
Xiaosuisui nodded and said, "It should be in a room on the second floor."
Ji Youzhi spoke softly, but Xiaosuisui didn’t deliberately lower her voice.
"You need to speak more softly in the future. Be careful not to be overheard; what if they move the items away beforehand because of it?"
Xiaosuisui nodded to show she understood, just as an attendant’s voice sounded nearby.
"Everyone, care to play Big or Small? A chance to get rich overnight, you know!"
Ji Youzhi waved his hand, "No, we won’t play!"
He was here to find the gold, not really to gamble. Xiaosuisui playing with Han Qianshou earlier had been his misstep.
However, Xiaosuisui heard the phrase "get rich overnight." She hadn’t heard it before, so she blinked and asked, "Uncle, what does ’get rich overnight’ mean?"
Ji Youzhi frowned upon hearing this question. As he was racking his brain for an explanation, the attendant from the Gambling House interjected.
"Little lady, your skill with the dice cup earlier was truly impressive; this humble one is full of admiration.
However, here in this Gambling House, the best game is Big or Small. If you truly have sharp eyes and keen ears, play here for one night, and you could win a Golden Mountain to take home.
If that isn’t getting rich overnight, what is?"
