Chapter 1230: Remember, My Name Is Xiao Zheng!
Chapter 1230: Remember, My Name Is Xiao Zheng!
She looked down at the points on the three dice, then slowly covered the dice cup with its lid, gently picked it up with one hand, and shook it by her ear.
She was extremely focused; this was probably the most serious she had ever been in her gambling career, swiftly analyzing what the points inside might be with every sound by her ear.
Under such circumstances, the woman was certain she couldn’t make any mistakes.
After shaking for a while, she felt she had the points inside firmly locked in her mind, and only then did she gently place the dice cup on the table, the dice inside still making a rattling sound.
Although her movements seemed gentle, just lightly shaking it and then setting down the dice cup, the three dice inside seemed to be experiencing a massive wave of force, spinning wildly around.
She kept one hand resting on her temple, raised her head to look at Xiao Zheng, her eyes bursting with an impressive aura, and said with a chuckle, "Since you’re guessing at the points, I’m going to open the lid. Do you know what will happen to you if the points inside aren’t three threes?"
Xiao Zheng chuckled, sat up from the chair back, lightly placed both hands on the table, tapped it thrice with one finger, and said leisurely, "If I dare to bet against you, I have absolute confidence in guessing the points inside. In my opinion, the three dice in the cup must show three threes, without a doubt, so go ahead and open it."
Xiao Zheng spoke with a smile, yet he felt quite appreciative of the woman in his heart.
This woman was entirely different from the previous guy shaking the dice. That guy was rigidly applying his professional skills to shake the dice in his hand, but the outcome was still easily monitored by Xiao Zheng.
If he could determine the points on the dice, it was still easy for someone of Xiao Zheng’s ability to change them.
Though the woman couldn’t understand how Xiao Zheng did it, she was evidently quite experienced in this regard. By now, the dice cup in her hand had come to a complete rest, and the dice inside seemed to stop shaking.
But only Xiao Zheng knew that while the woman’s hand was on the dice cup, the three dice hadn’t stopped; they were fixed in their positions, spinning furiously.
Her hand resting on the dice cup meant that as soon as she removed the lid, the dice would stop instantly, showing whatever points she desired at the moment of opening.
No one could beat this woman at this trick.
This is why the woman stepped in personally for the third game; she believed that no one could deceive her with her method.
After hearing Xiao Zheng’s words, the woman chuckled and said, "I admit your previous tactics surprised me and were impressive, but unfortunately, you’re still too young. Today, I’ll show you what real gambling skill is!"
"Alright then, let me see, make me admit my loss willingly." Xiao Zheng laughed loudly and said.
What the woman didn’t know was that Xiao Zheng had already discovered her trick. When he lightly tapped the table three times with his finger, the force quickly controlled the wildly spinning dice inside, fixing their points.
The woman took a deep breath; looking into Xiao Zheng’s confident eyes, she felt a little uneasy but still trusted her technique.
After thinking for a moment, she gently shook the dice cup using her method and then slowly opened the lid.
Inside, the three dice did indeed stop, but the points presented were completely different from what she had planned.
The three white dice lay there quietly, the three threes seemingly mocking the woman’s ignorance.
Xiao Zheng laughed heartily, stood up, grabbed Fan Longzhou from earlier with one hand, turned to glance at Wang Zixin beside him, and headed straight out.
He had utterly won this gamble.
Watching Xiao Zheng’s retreating figure, the woman slumped into her chair, staring in disbelief at the three white dice, unable to comprehend how Xiao Zheng achieved this.
She didn’t have him stopped; the agreement was that if Xiao Zheng won, he could leave, and he did win, so effortlessly.
Guessing the points with absolute disadvantage and getting them so accurately, predicting them in a sequence of threes, twos, and ones, he guessed them all right.
It was simply a miracle.
Moreover, neither the previous croupier nor the woman herself could control the dice cup, yet the points inside seemed subject to an invisible force, showing the results Xiao Zheng predicted.
In their minds, it might not have been just a miracle, but a paranormal event.
As Xiao Zheng was almost out the door, the woman suddenly looked up at his back and shouted, "What’s your name?"
A guy with such exceptional gambling skills couldn’t be a no-name figure; she wanted to know his name.
Indeed, in the woman’s mind, what Xiao Zheng displayed was real gambling skill, not merely guessing by luck.
Though, statistically speaking, hitting those points by shaking three dice consecutively was possible, the odds were even lower than winning the lottery, so the woman found it hard to believe.
And Xiao Zheng’s calm demeanor before had already let the woman know everything was within his grasp.
Initially, the woman approached Xiao Zheng out of boredom, but in the end, she realized it was all a game for Xiao Zheng.
"Remember, I’m Xiao Zheng." Without turning back, Xiao Zheng called out, taking Fan Longzhou with him as he stepped out of the nightclub’s door.
"Xiao Zheng..." The woman murmured his name, pondered for a moment, and slightly furrowed her brow. It seemed she had never heard of such a master under this name in the gambling world.
"Boss, should we investigate this guy?" one subordinate asked.
Upon hearing this, the woman suddenly turned to glare at the subordinate, her eyes wide open with overwhelming fury.
