That senior of hers came back in no time with the eight hundred million yuan worth of chips. “Junior sister, be careful, this guy isn’t as simple as he looks!” he warned discreetly.
She might be arrogant, but she wasn’t stupid. She already knew that Ling Yun was pretending to be a pig to prey on the tiger at this point in time. She nodded.
They placed their eight hundred million yuan chips on the table and let other people pick up the mahjong box and turn the tiles over onto the table. Not one tile was facing upwards.
The second round of gambling had started. Ling Yun and the beautiful tattooed lady started to shuffle the tiles.
She had her eyes on the tiles that would bring her the 16 points victory. She used a special method to “wash” the tiles to her side because she was afraid Ling Yun would accidentally snatch them from her. Alas, Ling Yun could see everything clearly with his divine sense.
Ling Yun didn’t bother to fight with her over the tiles. He aimed for the tiles that she couldn’t see. He was going for East, South, West, North, Red, Green, and White. He’d just pick them later to make a Four Great Blessings and Three Great Scholars. That would be an instant kill.
After a minute, she managed to get all the tiles she wanted in front of her. She couldn’t help but smile in excitement, showing a rare expression of tenderness.
“Time’s up, please start making your hand!”
Her beautiful hands were already heading towards the tiles she wanted. Her speed was dazzling.
However, Ling Yun was faster. He didn’t vie for the tiles in front of her and instead grabbed a bunch with his hand. He completed the Four Great Blessings and the Three Great Scholars in a matter of seconds and placed them neatly in front of him.
He then waited for her to finish patiently.
Ling Yun was so fast that the four gambling masters behind her were only able to see his shadow.
The lady naturally didn’t see this since she was focused on her own tiles.
She was also really fast, but to grab over a dozen tiles from the pile, she needed at least ten seconds. Ling Yun was two times faster.
“So fast!”
“But I seem to be faster than you…” Ling Yun said after he was sure she was done.
“Eh… What?”
She was just feeling happy that she grabbed all the tiles she wanted. She lifted her hand to see Ling Yun’s losing expression but saw the reverse instead. He even made two hands, which startled her.
Her face changed. She lowered her hand to assure herself that she really got the tiles worth 16 points before sneering at Ling Yun. “So what if you’re faster than me? We’re settling the score with the bigger hand!”
She pushed over her tiles. “See this? Your grandmother here has 16 points, which is the biggest possible score from the 36 tiles we could see just now. Let’s see how you win this time!”
“However, I have to tell you first that you cannot mix and match the two hands you grabbed!”
“Don’t worry, I’ve settled on them when I grabbed them. This is one set, and that is another set. I won’t play dirty with you.” Ling Yun laughed.
“Junior Sister, your eyesight has improved again…” The gambling masters behind her nodded in unison.
“Sixteen points. Unless that rascal has eyes on the table, he doesn’t need to dream about winning against our junior sister…”
“Sigh… I’ll never be able to win against Junior Sister in mahjong now…”
“That guy was really fast, but Junior Sister definitely won this time!”
Her heart was coated with honey as she heard her seniors praising her skills. “Open your hand. Didn’t you grab them really fast just now? I want to see how you’re going to win this time!”
“Oh my gosh, you have 16 tiles in one hand. Do you really know what it means to win… Hehe…”
She mocked Ling Yun for his ignorance as Ling Yun started opening his hand.
It was the hand with 16 tiles.
“Oh my god, four east tiles!”
“Four south tiles!”
“Four west tiles!”
“It can’t be! Four north tiles!”
“It’s… the Four Great Blessings!”
The crowd exclaimed in surprise each time he revealed four tiles!
Yes, it was the Four Great Blessings!
“Boss is really a god! The Four Great Blessings! Eight hundred million yuan belongs to us!”
Tang Meng was a gambler and the self-styled Little Gambling God. He knew now that Ling Yun wasn’t only good at gambling stones, but he was also good on the gambling table! He was nothing compared to Ling Yun!
“The Four Great Blessings! It’s really the Four Great Blessings!” Gong Hongguang jumped up in agitation. His lips trembled, which spread to his whole body. It was a tremble of excitement!
Ling Yun got a Four Great Blessings right after he asked what it was!
They were tiles he couldn’t see!
The woman’s smile froze on her face. She looked as though she saw something impossible. She even forgot to breathe!
The gambling masters behind her were dumbstruck! They couldn’t believe that Ling Yun could just casually grab the Four Great Blessings!
This miracle was unattainable even by the top in Asia — their master!
Another roar rang out for Ling Yun!
There was no need to declare who won.
It was obviously Ling Yun!
Ling Yun stood and scooped up all 16 chips on the table. “Beautiful, your stunned face is really mesmerizing. Shouldn’t we head to bed now?”
“This is impossible… Impossible… There were only two east, one south, and one west. There wasn’t even a north, how could you get these 16 tiles?”
Her memory was truly remarkable, she could still remember the 36 tiles from the beginning clearly. She couldn’t understand how he did it.
“You cheated! You definitely cheated!” she shouted as she slammed the table.
“You said there was no problem with the mahjong tiles. Only the two of us washed the tiles as well. I didn’t move from this seat either, so how did I cheat?” Ling Yun replied cheerily.
“Boss Gong, how could I have cheated?” Ling Yun turned to Gong Hongguang.
“Boss, erm, I don’t think you could have…” Gong Hongguang said, sweating profusely.
“Peng!” The beautiful woman sat back into her seat. She knew Ling Yun didn’t cheat. They would have known if he did.
They lost. They lost completely. They lost two hundred million yuan in the first game and eight hundred million in the second game. A total of one billion yuan went straight into Ling Yun’s pockets.
The money wasn’t theirs, so it was a small matter. What mattered most was their face. They would be completely humiliated if this were to get out.
But this was impossible! How could Ling Yun be better than her father? He could get a Four Great Blessings just like that. That was crazy!
“Y-you… how did you do that?”
She bit her lip and looked up at Ling Yun suddenly. Her face was pale.
“I was born with great luck…” Ling Yun replied nonchalantly.
How much luck could he have to be able to pull this off?
She wasn’t about to fall for that. Her eyes were drawn to the other hand, which Ling Yun hadn’t flipped. “Can you show me the other hand?” she asked, unable to suppress her curiosity.
“Of course. You can come here and look for yourself. No one is stopping you!” Ling Yun grinned.
“We didn’t know there was such a grandmaster here today. We admit defeat!” A middle-aged man of about 37 years old stepped forward suddenly and spoke solemnly.
“Admit defeat? Hmm, you lot should admit defeat. Now, shall we settle the score?” Ling Yun’s face darkened.
Settle the score? They had already lost one billion yuan to him, and they failed in their challenge today. What else was there to settle?
