Chapter 75: Forty Million

Liu Dong was very clear that this was the time when Han Lei was the most frustrated and eager to win back his losses. Given his arrogant nature, this was also the best time to provoke him.

Seeing Han Lei's hesitant look, Liu Dong couldn't help but taunt, "You're not afraid of losing, are you? You're not even willing to bet when you have a good hand?"

"Fine, let's bet! Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Han Lei, unable to bear the provocation, gritted his teeth and agreed, his eyes red with anger.

"Master Han, you should think carefully. Be careful, he might be bluffing!" Zhang Fakui couldn't help but warn at this moment.

"Who are you? How dare you, a fat pig, tell me what to do?" At this moment, under immense pressure, Han Lei's true nature was revealed.

"Fine, consider I didn't say anything!" Zhang Fakui, with a red face and a swollen neck, grumbled. He had meant well, but not only did he not earn their gratitude, he was also scolded and lost face in front of so many people.

According to the rules of Texas Hold'em, one can go all-in after the third card. So when Liu Dong got his third card, he had already pushed all his chips to the center.

"This is impossible, you're cheating!" Seeing Liu Dong's three cards, Han Lei suddenly stood up from his seat, pointing at Liu Dong's nose and shouting angrily.

It was no wonder. Liu Dong had two Jacks and a Ten, which was better than Han Lei's two Tens and a Jack. Both had a pair, making it even harder for Han Lei to accept. Moreover, the amount of money at stake was twenty million, which, even for the Han family's jewelry business, was not a trivial sum.

"You can talk nonsense, but you can't accuse me of cheating! Which eye saw me cheating?" Liu Dong stood up and retorted sarcastically.

Hearing this, Han Lei was taken aback. His previous statement was just an instinctive reaction to the unacceptable outcome of losing. He hadn't actually seen Liu Dong cheating. Besides, with so many people watching and Liu Dong touching the cards no more than three times, it was impossible to cheat!

"If you can't handle it, don't play. Losing and then accusing others of cheating, what a disgrace!" A voice rang out from the crowd.

"Who? Who said that? Have the guts to step forward!" Han Lei shouted angrily.

"I did, what of it?" A young man in his thirties, wearing a black T-shirt and gray pants, with a long face and sharp eyes, pushed through the crowd and stepped forward.

Liu Dong recognized him. This person had once given up his seat for him. However, he didn't know his name.

"Master Han, I, Wang Haitao, can vouch for Liu Dong. He absolutely did not cheat. You can rest assured!"

Hearing Wang Haitao's words, Han Lei didn't dare to curse him. The Black Tiger Gang was the true local power in Quancheng. If he offended them, the Han family's jewelry business, with its more than ten branches in Quancheng, would be in trouble.

"So, Master Han, do you want to continue gambling?" Liu Dong asked with a smile, looking at Han Lei's intense gaze. Since the Han family's jewelry business was already offended, Liu Dong was more than willing to win more money from his opponent.

"Fine, let's continue! Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Han Lei, with a red face and a swollen neck, was the perfect embodiment of a gambler.

After hearing his words, the crowd couldn't help but shake their heads. However, after Zhang Fakui's warning, no one dared to speak up and advise him.

"Fine, but I have forty million in chips. If you want to continue, bring forty million in chips first!"

After hearing Liu Dong's words, the crowd was in an uproar. Although they had all speculated, when the prospect of a nearly eighty million bet became real, they couldn't help but be amazed. Such a high-stakes game, involving nearly a hundred million, was something they had only heard about, not seen.

Even Duan Zhiheng, who was used to big scenes, couldn't help but show surprise. A hundred million bet was rare even in Macau, a world-renowned gambling city.

However, such a shocking high-stakes game was destined not to happen.

"Master, it's your father on the phone, looking for you!" Just as Han Lei was hesitating whether to agree, Han Zhong ran over with a cell phone.

Of course, in the Black Tiger Gang's underground casino, to maintain secrecy and prevent cheating, no electronic devices were allowed, including cell phones. However, Wang Haitao didn't want to offend the Han family, so when Han Zhong came to him for help, he hesitated but agreed.

"Father...!" Although dissatisfied with Han Zhong's initiative, Han Lei quickly took the phone from him.

"Yes, I understand, I'll be right back!" After hanging up, Han Lei, with bloodshot eyes, glared at Liu Dong, "Liu, you're lucky today, but I'll come back for this, you just wait!"

"Great, I'll be ready anytime. But next time, bring more money and don't run away like a coward!" Liu Dong retorted sarcastically. He wasn't someone who could tolerate insults, otherwise he wouldn't have taken on the Black Tiger Gang alone.

"You!!" Han Lei shouted angrily.

"Master, let's go back first! There will be other opportunities to get revenge!" Han Zhong, standing behind Han Lei, whispered. Knowing Han Lei's character, he was afraid that the young master would be provoked and insist on continuing the game, so he quickly provided an excuse for Han Lei to leave.

Hearing this, Han Lei's furrowed brows twitched. He then glared at Liu Dong with a grim expression, "Hmph, we'll see!" After saying this, Han Lei didn't stay and quickly left with his two bodyguards.

No matter how you looked at it, Han Lei's departure was quite pathetic, a stark contrast to his earlier arrogance.

After the group left in a hurry, Liu Dong let out a sigh of relief. Although he had the help of his powers and couldn't possibly lose, the tension of a high-stakes game involving millions of yuan was still palpable.

"Brother, give me your account number. I'll have my men transfer the money you won this time to you!" Wang Haitao, standing beside him, said with envy.

Although he was the leader of the Black Tiger Gang and controlled the largest underground casino in Quancheng, making a fortune every day, not all the money could go into his pocket. Besides the fixed monthly expenses for bribes, the thousands of gang members also needed to be paid. So the money that actually went to Wang Haitao each month was no more than ten million.

Seeing Liu Dong make thirty million in just an hour, how could Wang Haitao not be envious? However, he couldn't, and dared not, withhold such a large sum. First, he had to consider the casino's reputation, and second, Liu Dong's formidable martial skills, which had already embarrassed the Black Tiger Gang once, were not to be underestimated. He didn't want a second humiliation.

"Brother Wang, just transfer the money to this card again!" Liu Dong took out the Agricultural Bank card he had used earlier and gave the account number.

Seeing the high-stakes game of forty million end, the surrounding gamblers, while excited, lost interest in their own games. After all, after witnessing a high-stakes game, who would want to play a small game with less than a million? So they all took their chips, exchanged them, and left.

Liu Dong originally wanted to thank the young man in the black T-shirt with a long face who had stood up for him. However, by the time he and Wang Haitao had transferred the money to his card and returned, there were few people left on the second floor. Seeing this, Liu Dong couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.
