CHAPTER 83: 83: GLOOMY LITTLE EYES (PART 2)_1

Dong Huiying felt helpless, "What difference does it make what I think? Regardless of whether I am willing, it seems your gambling house has made up its mind to test me. Since that’s the case, my answer doesn’t matter anymore."

It seemed like Dong Huiying was about to compromise, but then...

"However, let’s be gentlemen first and scoundrels second! I can agree to gamble with you, but let me make one thing clear beforehand. Master Hong should know what kind of person I am. If after the gamble, Master Hong still behaves like this, I might impulsively do something regrettable... At that time, I’ll just have to ask for Master Hong’s forgiveness."

Hong Xiangjun remained as calm as ever, "Of course."

"Heh."

Dong Huiying directly grabbed three dice cups, "In that case, Master Hong, shall we?"

Dong Huiying threw the dice, and Hong Xiangjun caught the dice cups, counting the three dice inside before smiling. "Now, Miss Dong, make sure you watch carefully."

Her wrists were extremely flexible, shaking the dice cup back and forth, the clattering sound of the dice hitting each other filled the air. She shook the dice cup very quickly, creating a series of afterimages.

Finally, with a ’clang,’ the dice cup was placed on the gambling table.

"Miss Dong, please place your bet."

Dong Huiying’s eyebrows raised as she picked up her Small Ginseng valued at eight taels of silver and placed it on a number.

Hong Xiangjun, who had seemed to hold the winning ticket, stiffened a bit, while Zhu Xingfang scoffed with cold sarcasm, "Tch, has Dong Dabao had her brain kicked by a donkey? Betting on one? She must have really hurt her brain, and not lightly at that."

But Dong Huiying remained unmoved.

"What’s the matter, Master Hong, why aren’t you moving? I’ve placed my bet already. Isn’t it time for you to roll the dice?" she asked with a smile, appearing utterly harmless.

Hong Xiangjun gave a wry smile, "Truly, Miss Dong is a divine figure to look up to. I’m far inferior." She bowed slightly to Dong Huiying, then slapped her hand on the gambling table, lifting the lid of the dice cup.

After revealing the dice, they saw one-two-three, three dice stacked together, with a red dot on the very top, precisely the ’one’ Dong Huiying had bet on.

"Oh my god!"

"Da Bao is actually this amazing?"

"Never would have guessed it before."

"She won again. Calling it luck once is fine, but winning twice in a row, and not just big or small, but the exact number? The odds this time were twenty to one; this is just too uncanny, isn’t it?"

"How did she do it?"

Dong Huiying didn’t show off, but her successive two rounds of dice gambling today stunned everyone present.

Hong Xiangjun glanced at the dice on the table and sighed. She then gave Zhu Xingfang a meaningful look, and Xingfang immediately became agitated.

"Humph, what’s so great about winning money? Be careful you win money but lose your life!" said Zhu Xingfang with malicious glee, her eyes full of ill intent as she looked at Dong Huiying.

Dong Huiying narrowed her eyes slightly.

Today, she had come to the gambling house to redeem someone.

Because last time Zhou Dachun had brazenly broken into the Liang family’s home, he said that if someone failed to repay their debt, they would kidnap a man from their family as collateral, only releasing him once the debt was repaid.

So she had thought that Zhou Dachun had kidnapped the Liang Family Brothers over the debt.

But now...

Her eyebrows furrowed slightly; it seemed she would need to revise her plans.

....

Hong Xiangjun gestured invitingly, "Considering the matter of settling our accounts, there are too many prying eyes here. I wonder if Miss Dong would care to accompany me to the back courtyard to discuss further?"

Dong Huiying’s lips curled up slightly, and she immediately brushed off the nonexistent dust from her sleeve. She looked up at Hong Xiangjun, "Then I shall trouble Master Hong to lead the way!"
