My Super Beautiful Lady Boss-Chapter 680 - 669 Haven’t Slept Together Yet
Chapter 680: Chapter 669 Haven’t Slept Together Yet
To cure his brother-in-law’s gambling addiction once and for all, Su Xuan brought him to a familiar casino, with three hundred thousand yuan in cash. In the blink of an eye, his brother-in-law had lost 290,000 yuan, but fortunately, Su Xuan still had ten thousand yuan left to try and break even.
"Brother-in-law, just give me that ten thousand yuan, I feel like I can break even this round, my luck has kicked in, please!"
"Forget it, just watch me instead, your chances of breaking even are impossible now, you could only break even if pigs could fly."
Su Xuan glanced at him disdainfully.
"You want to gamble too?"
Li Chengcheng perked up upon hearing his new brother-in-law mention he was going to play, knowing that anyone who could easily withdraw three hundred thousand yuan just for gambling clearly had deep pockets.
"Hey, brother-in-law, why don’t you lend me another three hundred thousand, I promise I’ll pay you back tomorrow."
Su Xuan laughed and asked, "How will you pay it back, with your life?"
"Where is this coming from, brother-in-law? If you give me the money, I can break even right away and pay you back, not just the principal, but also the 290,000 yuan I just lost."
Listening to Li Chengcheng’s perfect plan, Su Xuan wasn’t impressed at all; the boy was too naive for gambling.
"Smack!"
Su Xuan slapped ten thousand yuan on the table.
The others were startled, wondering if he really intended to play with just ten thousand yuan?
"What, can’t handle it?"
Su Xuan looked at the people opposite him with a slightly mocking gaze.
"Play with him."
A boss-like figure instructed his minions.
Su Xuan dealt the cards and checked them, his face always wearing a relaxed smile, his heart utterly unwavering.
Li Chengcheng was completely focused, as if he was transported into the game himself.
"Reveal the cards!"
Su Xuan smiled as he flipped over his cards, barely bothering to give them a second glance.
"Winning is just that simple."
Due to his small stake, Su Xuan could only double it, and after the profit, he had another ten thousand yuan, making it twenty thousand yuan in his hands now.
"Brother-in-law, badass! Awesome."
Li Chengcheng gave Su Xuan a thumbs-up since he was only twenty this year, and now Su Xuan seemed incredibly impressive to him.
"Let’s go again!"
Su Xuan said indifferently.
In the blink of an eye, Su Xuan had over three hundred thousand yuan in his hand, because he kept doubling up – ten thousand to twenty thousand, twenty thousand to forty thousand, and so on until he reached three hundred and twenty thousand yuan, like a snowball effect.
Now, with over three hundred thousand yuan in his hand, if he won again, he would have six hundred thousand yuan in cash.
Soon, the game ended again.
"Sorry about that, I won six hundred thousand, minus my principal. That’s a win of three hundred thousand. Let’s go,"
Su Xuan told Li Chengcheng.
Seeing all that money, Li Chengcheng was overjoyed, having never won so much money before. He hadn’t expected his brother-in-law to be this incredible, winning six hundred thousand in the blink of an eye. He was like an idol to him!
"Winning and then leaving, there’s no rule like that, right?"
Someone walked up behind Su Xuan, while Li Chengcheng, content with a bag full of cash, stopped.
"So, you can’t leave with a win, only if you lose?"
Su Xuan snorted coldly.
"Pretty much, brother. I can tell you’ve been around. Give us some face."
"What do you want to do?"
Su Xuan asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Keep the winnings here, take your three hundred thousand and go."
The man directed this at Li Chengcheng, who was holding the bag.
"That’s a bit unreasonable, Chengcheng, what do you think?"
"The money we won fair and square is ours to keep, not a penny for them!"
Li Chengcheng treated money like his life. How could he bear to give up the money that had entered his pocket? He would never forget the times he had desperately lost money before, and now that they had finally struck it rich, they were being asked to give it all back, which was even more painful than death.
"Brother-in-law, we can’t give it up."
This time Li Chengcheng was truly protective of his wealth; what was his, was his.
"Sorry, my brother-in-law said, we can’t give it!"
Su Xuan completely ignored the guy standing before him, even though his gaze was stern, Su Xuan disregarded him, making him feel absolutely irrelevant.
"So, there’s really no room for negotiation?"
The other party asked one last time.
Su Xuan shook his head, there was no leeway whatsoever. What they earned was theirs, and what his brother-in-law said was the truth.
"Come on!"
With a shout, more than ten muscular young men came out from behind, all bulging with muscles. Su Xuan simply scoffed at the thought of fighting them; doing so would be like picking on children.
"Brother-in-law, what do we do? They want to fight us."
Su Xuan pretended to be scared as he spoke.
"Let them fight, but the money stays with us."
Li Chengcheng spoke with a steely resolve, even impressing Su Xuan, who admired his fearlessness and desperation not to lose the money.
"Guys, if it really comes to blows, you won’t get a single penny back."
The other party warned.
"It doesn’t matter."
Su Xuan shrugged, genuinely indifferent, and seeing his brother-in-law clutching the money tightly only reinforced his apathy. If it came to a fight, so be it.
"Attack!"
At a sharp whistle from the enemy, his men charged all at once. To avoid startling his brother-in-law, Su Xuan acted swiftly. Bam bam bam!
Five seconds!
Su Xuan looked at the people lying all around him and clapped his hands, thinking, "Five seconds, a bit too long, need to step it up next time."
The opponent was completely dumbfounded. How could so many men be brought down so quickly? What kind of sorcery was this? It couldn’t be possible.
"Alright, we’re leaving now."
Su Xuan waved goodbye to them as if parting with old friends.
"Hey, get up, we’re leaving."
Su Xuan reminded his brother-in-law, who was currently clutching his head and the bag of money tightly.
"Oh, we’re leaving now?" He finally woke up from his daze, glancing at the people scattered on the ground, but his only concern was the money.
The man watched Su Xuan stride out confidently and immediately picked up the phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, Brother Wang, there’s trouble in the casino."
"What exactly happened?"
The voice on the other end sounded lazy, as if just woken up.
"Someone came to kick up a fuss in the casino, and our skilled cheaters couldn’t handle him."
"Tell me how much money was lost."
"Twenty thousand yuan."
The other end paused, obviously startled by the small amount. Making just twenty thousand yuan in a raid wasn’t even enough to cover the costs.
"Are you sure it was an interference, not just luck?"
"Impossible, our cheater confirmed it himself. That young man’s cheating skills were too powerful. He saw through our tricks at a glance."
"There’s such a person? Seems like a real talent. We must bring him over."
"Alright, so how much are you willing to offer?"
"Hmm."
After a moment’s thought, he said, "Twenty million yuan."
"Alright."
The call ended. The night was quiet; Su Xuan had a great win tonight. It had been a long time since he’d gambled, and compared to the casinos in Qingshan City, this place still had much to improve.
The one who had made the call, Brother Wang, was in charge of this venue.
It made sense for him to offer twenty million yuan to hire a skilled cheater, as using cheating techniques in gambling could lead to complaints unless the cheater wasn’t effectively contributing to the casino’s success, making them worthless.
If everyone knew he was a cheater, no venue would welcome him, leaving him no place to make money. Better to stick to a safe job with the casino owner, where he could earn a steady income and be protected in case of trouble.
Having such a skilled cheater in the casino did not concern Wang Fangqian; it was all about attracting talent. But little did he know, the person would turn out to be his arch-nemesis, Su Xuan!
At that moment, Su Xuan and Li Chengcheng returned to Li Yuanyuan’s home.
Li Chengcheng now worshipped Su Xuan. His Kung Fu was formidable, having turned ten thousand yuan into over six hundred thousand.
The brother-in-law, having a bit of conscience, offered up three hundred thousand yuan for Su Xuan’s bank account, keeping the rest for himself. Su Xuan felt relieved; thankfully, the kid hadn’t pocketed all six hundred thousand.
"You’re back so soon?"
Li Yuanyuan’s family looked on as Su Xuan returned with the prodigal son, each harboring different thoughts.
Su Xuan had already lectured this future brother-in-law on the way home, advising him to mend his ways. Though effective today, its long-term effects remained uncertain.
"Mom, Dad, I will never gamble with your money again!"
The parents beamed at this news, wondering what magic the prospective son-in-law had used to reform their reckless son – it didn’t seem scientifically possible.
"Sis, I was wrong earlier. Your husband is a really good man; you must cherish him."
Li Chengcheng earnestly told Li Yuanyuan.
Li Yuanyuan stared incredulously at her brother. He had never apologized to her before, and now this sudden change left her somewhat uneasy.
Seeing Li Yuanyuan’s baffled expression, Li Chengcheng added, "Sis, I mean it. Your husband is truly great. Following him, you won’t suffer, and his abilities will make sure you’re comfortable."
Li Yuanyuan was an innocent girl, unfamiliar with certain suggestive topics. Su Xuan, however, understood very well. The brother-in-law’s comments were ambiguous – speaking of making his sister comfortable with his hands sounded rather indecent.
"Alright, little brother, let’s not talk about that. Let’s just focus on living well, we’re still family."
Li Yuanyuan was pleased with her brother’s change of heart and gave Su Xuan a grateful glance, a look filled with allure that only Su Xuan could decipher.
"Sis, I heard from my brother-in-law that you two haven’t slept together yet."
Su Xuan had mentioned it at the casino in jest; he hadn’t expected him to actually say it out loud in front of everyone.
Everyone was stunned. Su Xuan was especially dumbstruck, not expecting his straightforward brother-in-law to be so blunt.
With her face flushed, Li Yuanyuan was at a loss for words.
Li Yuanyuan’s mother and father coughed, trying to hide their awkwardness, and retreated to the bedroom. Such a sensitive topic was best left to the younger ones.
"Sis, why didn’t you sleep with your husband earlier? Then you could have captured his heart sooner."
Li Chengcheng stated seriously.
"It’s kind of hot in here. I’ll go cool off on the balcony."
Su Xuan, hardly bearing to listen any longer, hurried to the balcony to escape.
"What nonsense are you talking about," scolded Li Yuanyuan at her brother.
