Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord
Chapter 2133: Danger
However, Little Tiger’s situation is dangerous because Lin Kong is particularly sensitive to its scent, and it may have already been exposed.
Xuexue secretly decided. Grab Little Tiger and run as soon as there’s a chance.
Lin Kong acted all smug, while Little Tiger didn’t like him, curled his lips, and said: "What we buy is none of your business. You’re just sticking your nose into other people’s business like a dog chasing rats."
Lin Kong wasn’t angry at all, and cheerfully said: "Little brother, it really is big, I’m not lying."
Xuexue knew that mercury was filled inside the dice, allowing the croupier to manipulate results at will. The reason the croupier did this was because he didn’t want them to keep winning, so Lin Kong’s words were just nonsense.
Xuexue said to Little Tiger: "Brother, we won’t bet this round."
Little Tiger was counting money in a euphoric state, asked doubtfully: "Why?"
Xuexue: "No reason, since this gentleman says it’s big, just let him bet on it."
The croupier recognized Lin Kong and smiled while asking: "Is Young Master Zhao betting big or small?"
Lin Kong took out one thousand taels of silver from his pocket, placed it on the table: "Bet big."
The croupier smiled: "Alright then!"
Then, turning his head, he loudly announced to the other gamblers: "Everyone hurry and bet, hurry and bet, bets are placed and can’t be changed."
"I’ll bet big."
"I’ll bet small."
The gamblers placed their bets one after another.
The croupier felt it was time, opened the dice cup,
everyone looked, some cheered while others were disappointed.
Xuexue looked and found out that the croupier indeed tampered, changing the big number to small.
Little Tiger was laughing delightedly: "Lucky I didn’t listen to you, otherwise we’d have lost money tonight."
Lin Kong was also dumbfounded, he clearly heard it was big, but how did it suddenly turn small?
The croupier smiled broadly as he collected all the winnings, glanced at Xuexue and the others, with a hint of pity in his eyes because they didn’t bet.
"Oh my, oh my." Just when the croupier was preparing for the next round, Xuexue suddenly clutched his stomach and cried out.
Little Tiger got off the stool in a panic: "Brother, big brother, what’s wrong with you?"
"Oh dear, I can’t take it. I ate something bad tonight, I need to go to the toilet."
Little Tiger: "Such a hassle, let’s go, I’ll accompany you to the toilet."
Xuexue: "No need, you stay and play; I’ll be back shortly."
"With you like this, can I feel at ease?" Little Tiger said grumblingly.
"Oh my, oh my, it’s really painful!" Xuexue clutched his stomach and cried out again.
"Let’s go, let’s go, just looking at you is uncomfortable."
Little Tiger supported Xuexue, who was bending over in pain, taking just a couple of steps when Xuexue stopped, his face twisted in agony, said to Little Tiger painfully: "Brother, we haven’t taken our silver notes yet!"
"Leave it, you’re in such pain. We’ll come back and continue playing later!" Little Tiger finished, turned to the croupier and shouted: "Master, my big brother’s got stomach problems, I’m taking him to the toilet and will be back, make sure our silver notes on the table are watched carefully, don’t let anyone take them, we will be back soon."
The croupier glanced at the thick pile of silver notes on the table and smiled: "Alright! Little Young Master, no rush, your spot is reserved!"
"Alright then!"
Little Tiger turned around and continued to support Xuexue forward.
Xuexue whispered: "Is that guy following us?"
Little Tiger: "No, he probably thinks we’ll really come back."
Lin Kong, who was sitting at the table, glanced at the spot where Little Tiger sat earlier, seeing a large stack of silver notes on the table, inadvertently flipped through it, suddenly jumped up and dashed towards the door...
