Chapter 51

"What do you mean?"

Chen Dasheng turned around and looked at the old man behind the gambling table with a hostile expression.

"Don't misunderstand!" The old man walked out from behind the gambling table with a smile, dismissing the two big men with a wave of his hand. He looked at the pile of chips in Chen Dasheng's hand and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, you've had good luck today. We have a VIP gambling hall in the back. If you don't mind, why don't we play a few more rounds back there?"

"Hmm?"

Chen Dasheng was taken aback. This was a common scene in movies. When someone caused trouble, they would be invited to the back to resolve the issue privately, making it easier to handle.

Chen Dasheng wasn't afraid of them. He was very confident in his abilities. However, he glanced at the large clock on the wall and realized it was already past midnight. He had Liu Xiaomin's class first thing in the morning, and it wouldn't be good if he was late.

He roughly calculated the chips in his hand and found that he had won about 12 million yuan. For Chen Dasheng, this was undoubtedly a huge sum of money he had never seen before. Greed can make a man do foolish things, but Chen Dasheng wisely suppressed his greed and smiled at the old man, "No, thank you. I have something to do. I'll come back another time, okay?"

"Come back another time?"

The old man's face immediately turned grim when he heard Chen Dasheng's refusal. A flash of darkness passed through his eyes. Winning over 12 million yuan in one visit, and he wanted to come back? Did he think this place was a charity?

Throughout history, casinos have never been known to lose money. When faced with such a gambler, the casino has its own methods. If the amount wasn't too much, the casino would let it go. After all, they were in business, and if they always made others lose, who would come?

However, if the gambler won too much money, the casino would take action. They would usually start with a softer approach, inviting the troublemaker to the back or sending an expert to play against them to win the money back, or offering a small gift to prevent them from causing trouble. Of course, the gift had its limits.

If the other party didn't accept the softer approach, then it was time for the hard stuff. The Wu family casino had the support of the Small Knife Gang, and violent threats were the most common means. Those who understood the situation were almost certain that even if Chen Dasheng could take the money out of the casino, he wouldn't make it home before being intercepted by the Small Knife Gang.

Although the old man was angry, he didn't show it. He walked forward and patted Chen Dasheng on the shoulder, as if he wanted to say something.

"What's going on, what's going on?" Just as the old man was about to say something to Chen Dasheng, a loud voice rang out, and a young man pushed through the crowd.

Chen Dasheng turned around and saw it was Liu Hao.

"Damn, Old Mei, take your hand off. What do you want to do to Brother Sheng?"

Liu Hao had been playing mahjong and was losing his head when he saw the crowd gathered here. He quickly ran over and, seeing it was Chen Dasheng, immediately flew into a rage, pushing the old man's hand away.

"It's Young Master Liu!" The old man clearly recognized Liu Hao. Seeing him standing in front of Chen Dasheng, a hint of confusion flashed across his face. "Is this friend brought by Young Master Liu?"

Liu Hao laughed lightly and said proudly, "Of course, Old Mei, what do you want to do?"

"Hmm?" The old man was clearly taken aback, then smiled. "This friend is a skilled gambler. I just wanted to learn from him, nothing more."

"Oh?"

Liu Hao seemed to notice the pile of chips in Chen Dasheng's arms for the first time, his eyes widening in surprise. "Brother Sheng, you...?"

Chen Dasheng smiled helplessly. "I just won, but it seems this old man doesn't want me to leave."

"Win?" Liu Hao was confused. Winning so much, at least a few million, he would have believed Chen Dasheng had stolen it.

Looking at Chen Dasheng's expression, it didn't seem like he was faking. If Chen Dasheng had stolen the money, there would have been a fight by now, not a friendly conversation.

It turned out that Chen Dasheng, besides being skilled in martial arts, was also a master gambler, winning so much money from the Wu family casino and even in front of this old man. Liu Hao knew how powerful this old man was, and his eyes lit up.

Then, Liu Hao turned to the old man with a domineering air. "Old Mei, what's going on with your casino? You won't let someone leave after they win money? Do you know who I am? Do you know who Brother Sheng is? If you dare to mess with Brother Sheng, do you think I won't have people smash your place?"

The old man's eyebrows furrowed. He could now guess that Chen Dasheng was brought by Liu Hao to cause trouble. This guy, relying on his father Liu Rongfa's background, not only refused to pay his debts but also brought someone to cause trouble, which was too much.

"Young Master Liu, don't say things lightly. We are in business, and customers are free to come and go. Which eye did you see me not letting this friend leave?" The old man suppressed his anger. Liu Hao was known for being a spoiled brat, and he would do anything if provoked.

Although the casino had the support of the Small Knife Gang, the Liu family's background wasn't small either. If the two families had a falling out, it wouldn't be a good thing.

Liu Hao stepped up to the old man and said, "I saw it with all three of my eyes. Don't think I don't know your tricks."

"Three eyes?" The old man's eyebrows raised.

Liu Hao, with a lazy and rascally look, said, "Left eye, right eye, and the third eye. You still won't admit it?"

The old man's face twitched. Liu Hao's crude words made the people around him cover their mouths and laugh.

"What's going on?"

Just as the old man was at a loss on how to deal with the stubborn Liu Hao, a voice came from behind. The crowd parted, and a well-dressed, slightly plump man walked over with a stern face.

Wu Wenxuan!

The old man breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Wu Wenxuan. He could let the second-generation young masters fight it out while he went back to have a drink.

"Wu Wenxuan, you're quite capable. Brother Sheng came, and you didn't even come out to greet him?" Seeing Wu Wenxuan, Liu Hao immediately became unhappy. Although he knew Wu Wenxuan had just returned, he couldn't help but use his influence to scold him.

Wu Wenxuan's face changed when he saw Chen Dasheng. When he first came in, he only saw a crowd and didn't expect Chen Dasheng to be here.

Looking at the chips in Chen Dasheng's arms, Wu Wenxuan quickly understood what had happened.

Wu Wenxuan clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, continue playing. Don't gather here. It's all a misunderstanding. This gentleman is my friend."

The crowd, seeing the casino owner, quickly dispersed, returning to their games.

Wu Wenxuan then walked up to Chen Dasheng and said with a smile, "Brother Sheng, why didn't you let me know you were coming? It caused a misunderstanding!"

Before Chen Dasheng could speak, Liu Hao interjected, "Misunderstanding? Brother Sheng won money here, which was giving you face. Your people dared to stop him from leaving. Brother Sheng is very angry, and the consequences will be severe. Wu Wenxuan, what do you have to say about this?"

Hearing Liu Hao exaggerate, Wu Wenxuan was a bit angry, but he couldn't show it in front of Chen Dasheng. He looked at Chen Dasheng, who seemed calm, and ignored Liu Hao, smiling at Chen Dasheng, "Brother Sheng, it was our fault today. Let's go to the back, and I'll apologize to you."

Chen Dasheng waved his hand indifferently, "No need. It's late, and I have to get up early tomorrow. I won't disturb you."

"Uh, this..." Wu Wenxuan paused, then walked up to Chen Dasheng, took out a black card, and handed it to him, smiling, "Since Brother Sheng has something to do, I won't force you. This is our Wu family casino's supreme black card. Hope to see you again!"

Chen Dasheng had seen this black card before; Liu Hao had one. He didn't pay much attention and put it away, pointing to the chips in his arms and saying to Wu Wenxuan, "Can I exchange these?"

"Of course!"

Wu Wenxuan nodded and called two girls to take the chips and exchange them for money.

Seeing Chen Dasheng let Wu Wenxuan off so easily, Liu Hao felt a bit unsatisfied and said to Wu Wenxuan, "Brother Sheng is in a good mood today and won't hold it against you. Consider yourself lucky."

Wu Wenxuan laughed lightly, "Young Master Liu, when did you learn to rely on others? Don't forget, you still owe the casino over 5 million yuan!"

"You!"

Liu Hao's eyebrows furrowed, and he couldn't say anything for a while. "Good one, Wu Wenxuan. We'll see about this."

"Ah!" Wu Wenxuan's lips curved into a smile, and he put his arm around Liu Hao's shoulder, "Young Master Liu, don't go yet!"

"Damn, what do you want? A fight? I'm not afraid of you!" Liu Hao shook off Wu Wenxuan's hand, his face dark.

Wu Wenxuan didn't argue with Liu Hao and smiled as usual, "You're known for being a spoiled brat. How could I dare to fight you? I just want to make a deal with Young Master Liu!"

"A deal?" Liu Hao's face changed. Although Wu Wenxuan's words were harsh, he was curious.

Wu Wenxuan glanced at Chen Dasheng in the distance and smiled at Liu Hao, "Speaking of which, our families are old acquaintances and have always been on good terms. There's no need for us to become mortal enemies over a few million in gambling debts, right?"
