Chapter 2011: Chapter 2097: Just a Small Matter

He didn’t ask too much about this either. In his eyes, the Wang Family was so rich they didn’t need to worry about this kind of thing at all—wasn’t a hundred million just a "small goal" to them? Compared to that, the bit of money he’d lost was really just pocket change.

"Hehe, no matter how much money you have, you still can’t afford to lose it all, right? Remember that doubling-up algorithm I told you about before!"

Su Xuan shrugged. This was something he’d joked about with Xinyue Hu before when they were chatting. At the time, Su Xuan was talking about a game with a fifty‑percent probability, then using a martingale‑style doubling strategy, like 1‑3‑8 and so on. Even if you started with mere points, by the end you’d still crash straight into ruin! From that alone it’s not hard to see just how terrifying gambling is!

"Xinyue Hu, isn’t your self‑control supposed to be very good? You tilted?"

Su Xuan asked curiously. In theory, someone like Xinyue Hu shouldn’t be tilting. You have to know, he’s someone who’s been rolling on this path for many years, has been through all kinds of storms, and learned lessons the hard way—at his worst, he’d almost had his hand chopped off!

When he first met Xinyue Hu, Xinyue Hu had already become the Gambling Queen. After becoming the Gambling Queen, his Mental Realm was actually very solid. Su Xuan had also gone to RT-Mart to hang out with him a few times and could clearly see that Xinyue Hu’s self‑control was extremely good!

Getting carried away is something that might easily happen to a rookie like Lemoore, but for someone who has fought through countless battles, it’s actually very unlikely!

"I..."

"Go take a shower first, clear your head, stay calm. Lemoore, aside from Chinatown, where else are there casinos!"

"You... you’re not asking me to gamble again, are you!"

"Yeah."

Su Xuan shrugged, then handed over a card as he spoke.

"There’s ten million in here. We’ll go later."

What Su Xuan really wanted to know was whether he’d actually tilted or not. Su Xuan had a feeling that this matter wasn’t that simple!

After lunch, once he’d changed into clean clothes and had some rest, he looked much more refreshed. Su Xuan rented a luxury car and took them to another casino, then they went in again. Su Xuan just sat on the side watching. At first, Xinyue Hu still had some psychological shadow, but later he started playing at his normal level. Very soon, Su Xuan realized that Xinyue Hu simply wouldn’t tilt, because during this time the opponents also seemed very strong. Several times they had already cut the ten million down to just a bit over one hundred thousand, but he never lost his composure. Only someone who has truly mastered the laws of the casino can do that.

A lot of things sound simple when you talk about them, but are actually really complicated when you try to do them. After all, people are creatures of the seven emotions and six desires; how many can truly be without desire, with a heart as calm as water in a casino!

For example, if someone has a bankroll of ten million, once they’ve lost five million, their Mental Realm will already be shaken. It’s very likely they’ll shove all‑in, trying to win it back in one hand. If they’re lucky, sure, it might happen—but people don’t have such good luck. That’s one thing. More importantly, there’s another point: the opponent is using Qian, and they’ll just swallow you whole!

Su Xuan actually noticed that the opponent was playing dirty, but Xinyue Hu remained very calm, keeping his heart as still as water, responding very cautiously without the slightest ripple!

This is what a true master is: even if his luck is terrible, as long as he can grasp the opponent’s cheating skill, he can exploit it. That’s what makes a true Gambling Queen.

Sure enough, when there was only one hundred thousand left, Su Xuan felt that Xinyue Hu seemed to have spotted the opponent’s pattern. Then, when he put down that last one hundred thousand, it became two hundred thousand. Then he put the two hundred thousand down again and it became four hundred thousand!

In just five short hands, he’d already turned one hundred thousand into three million. Once he had three million in hand, Xinyue Hu changed again. This time he bet one hundred thousand. Sure enough, it got swallowed. Then he bet another one hundred thousand, and that was swallowed too. Su Xuan knew the opponent had switched techniques, but Xinyue Hu remained as composed as still water, not even a bead of sweat on his forehead!

On the side, Lemoore was watching with his eyes about to pop out. This was a real master!

When the three million had turned into two million, suddenly he pushed the entire two million in. The result was as expected: it became four million. Immediately, he pushed the four million in and it became eight million. Then on the last hand, he pushed the eight million in and it became sixteen million!

Once it had become sixteen million, Xinyue Hu again put down one hundred thousand and got swallowed twelve times in a row—twelve hands of one hundred thousand each. Then on the thirteenth hand, Xinyue Hu put all the remaining fourteen point eight million in!

This time even the house was so scared they were drenched in cold sweat. They knew they’d run into a real opponent. They’d already switched cheating skill three times in a row, but this woman had seen through them each time and had even used the smallest funds to extract them. This was enough to make the experts collapse!

"Open it!"

Xinyue Hu spoke, a hint of confidence showing on her face!

"Miss Xin, may we speak in private for a moment?"

At this moment, a chubby man with sweat constantly dripping from his forehead came to Xinyue Hu’s side and spoke softly.

"Agree to it, but have them bring me in too!"

Su Xuan lowered his voice and said.

"Okay."

Xinyue Hu nodded confidently, then pointed to Su Xuan behind her.

"But my husband must come in with me."

"All right, Miss Xin, this way please!"

At this point, Su Xuan followed Xinyue Hu into an office. The office had many monitors, controlling the entire casino. Su Xuan knew this had to be the boss’s place!

After Su Xuan and Xinyue Hu entered, he saw that the boss was a man in his fifties, looking rather gentle and scholarly!

Looking at Xinyue Hu, the boss spoke with a face full of admiration.

"Miss Xin really is a master! To be honest, the one playing against you just now was our casino’s finale master, and even he turned out not to be your match!"

"Boss, you’re really a man of character!"

Su Xuan looked at this boss and actually admired him quite a bit. In casinos, black‑eating‑black or being able to win but not to lose is a common thing. Many casinos will hire a bunch of thugs, and when this kind of thing happens, after all, it’s their turf and their rules!

But this boss was different. Su Xuan knew that actually he also couldn’t afford to lose anymore, which was why he’d invited him and Xinyue Hu in. That last hand had already cost them fifty million yuan. For a Gambling House, fifty million yuan was actually a pretty large sum of capital!

"Well, Miss Xin, let’s discuss this. I’ll give you twenty million. What do you think? To be honest, our Gambling House has been having cash‑flow problems lately."

The boss spoke very sincerely. Xinyue Hu glanced at Su Xuan, clearly meaning that the decision was up to him.
