Chapter 1269: God of Cards

Morning.

Before 6 a.m.

The sky had become brighter.

Dong Xuebing chatted with Zhang Longjuan and the twins while waiting for the next game to start.

The Platinum VIP room was tense.

It was weird.

Everyone looked at Dong Xuebing, but no one dared to take up his challenge.

Eh, do you know where that guy came from?

He should be from the mainland based on his accent. But is there a Mahjong master from the mainland?

This is not about whether he is a master. Even the God of Gamblers does not have his techniques.

Thats right. Look around us. No one dares to say a word. Four Heavenly Wins. This is too scary.

How did he do it? Is it luck, or did he cheat? It is hard to believe someone can be so lucky.

No one knows other than him. This guy must be a master. The roulette games earlier might also be

Are you saying he used some methods to win three single-number bets in a row? That is scary.

But he said we can dont play Mahjong. Many people in the casino are good at card games.

Thats not for sure because no one knows who this guy is.

Thats right. His Heavenly Wins are enough to scare everyone. Who knows if they can win him at card games?

Mahjong and card games are different. The rules are different. We can try.

We might be overthinking. Maybe he is lucky today. After all, he looks like a beginner when he plays Mahjong. He will not act like a beginner if he is a master.

You are right. Maybe we are overthinking.

We will know when we see his skills at card games. If he is getting those crazy max doubles combinations, then

Are you going to try?

Huh? Dont count me in.

Rest area.

Senior Zhou continued to look at Dong Xuebing. He seemed to be thinking about something and did not say anything. A few minutes later, he called Song Yuhu.

Xiao Song.

Yes, Senior Zhou.

Come over.

Do you have any orders for me? Song Yuhu walked over.

Senior Zhou looked at him. How much do you know about that young man?

Song Yuhu paused for a second and shook his head. I know he might be Zhang Longjuans bodyguard. But when they boarded the ship, Zhang Longjuan said he was her lover. I dont know about their relationship, but I think they are friends.

Senior Zhou frowned. What else?

Song Yuhu replied. He arrived in Hong Kong a few days ago. Zhang Longjuan only had those twin sisters as bodyguards before he came. I dont know about the rest.

Senior Zhou asked. You were the closest to him earlier. Did he have any other movements during the game?

Song Yuhu knew what Senior Zhou was asking. He sighed. I cannot tell. He did not have other unordinary movements.

All right. I know. Wait beside. Senior Zhou said, and he wanted to confirm something. He stood up with his gold walking stick. Young man.

Dong Xuebing, who was at the other end of the room, heard him. Huh?

Senior Zhou smiled. Lets play a game.

Dong Xuebing smiled. Only the two of us? How are we going to play?

We will not play Mahjong. Lets play some card games. Senior Zhou said.

Dong Xuebing snubbed his cigarette and stood up. Sure. What do you want to play?

Senior Zhou thought for a while and said. If only the two of us are playing, lets play something simple. How about 3-cards brag?

3-cards brag?

Dong Xuebing thought for a while and nodded. Ok.

Senior Zhou laughed. All right. This way, please.

Senior Zhou is playing!

The dealers and staff were surprised.

Many guests do not know Senior Zhou, but the casino staff know him well. He was one of the top gamblers when he was young. He has good skills and specializes in cheating. Most players cannot see how he cheats. Although Zhang Longjuan rose to riches by gambling, her reputation was nothing compared to Senior Zhou. However, Senior Zhou retired for unknown reasons and never gambled again. Earlier this year, he suddenly appeared on this gambling ship as one of the bosses. Even Song Yuhu treated him respectfully.

Everything should be fine if Senior Zhou plays.

No matter how good that guys luck or cheating skills are, he will not be Senior Zhous match. Senior Zhou rose to fame by cheating.

Song Yuhu brightens up.

Mr. Wei and Ms. Leng knew about Senior Zhou and looked over.

They knew Senior Zhou was trying to test this young man. He seldom played Mahjong in the past, and he could not tell how Dong Xuebing switched his tiles. But his forte is card games. No one in the circle dares to say they can beat Senior Zhou at card games because he does not rely only on luck. He can cheat without anyone noticing. Many casino staff had seen it before and were confident he would win. Luck is unpredictable, and no one can beat Senior Zhou at cheating. He will not lose even if he meets another player around his level. Song Yuhu and many casino staff strongly believe it.

Song Yuhu had thought of Senior Zhou after he lost all his money. He wished Senior Zhou could help him get back at Dong Xuebing. But they know Senior Zhou had retired, and Song Yuhu dares not beg him for help.

But now, Senior Zhou is planning to gamble with Dong Xuebing.

This was what Song Yuhu and many others wanted. If Dong Xuebing dares to play against Senior Zhou, he would lose his 98 million USD.

Who is Senior Zhou?

A nobody like Dong Xuebing cannot be compared to him.

If Senior Zhou wants to win, he will win.

A few guests recognized Senior Zhou and started telling their friends about him.

He looks like Zhou Hu.

Zhou Hu? The God of Cards, Zhou Hu?

Are you sure? Didnt he retire years ago?

It should be him. I can recognize him. I met him once in Macau many years ago. I did not expect to see him here.

Huh? I overheard them calling him Senior Zhou.

Damn! The God of Cards is coming out from retirement. This is exciting.

The God of Cards. Zhou Hu had only lost a few times in his life.

I heard he is a master at cheating. Is he going to

That young man should have cheated, and the God of Cards wants to teach him a lesson. This is exciting.

Theres nothing else that young man can do if Senior Zhou is that Zhou Hu.

But he is old now. Is he still as good as before?

What do you know? The older he is, the more experience he has. Do you think the God of Cards will lose after coming out of retirement?

Thats right. He will teach this young man a lesson.

But that young man is too four Heavenly Wins with max doubles combinations. He is flaunting.

Haha watch. This is interesting.

Zhang Longjuan overheard the guests talking.

Dong Xuebing was adjusting his clothes. He was going to the table when Zhang Longjuan stopped him. She frowned and mumbled to himself. Zhou Hu The God of Cards

What Zhou Hu? Dong Xuebing turned.

Wait. Zhang Longjuan looked at Dong Xuebing. Tell me the truth. Do you know how to play cards?

Dong Xuebing replied without thinking. I am not good with most card games as I have never played them. But I know 3-cards brag. I played with my roommates in my university hostel. Of course, we dont gamble with money.The source of this content ɪs Noᴠelꜰɪre.nᴇt

University?

Did not gamble with money?

Roommates?

Shen Xiaomei almost fainted. Damn. This means you dont know how to play.

Shen Xiaomei felt she could not communicate with Dong Xuebing. To her, knowing how to play means you are good at it. You should know the strategies and tactics of the game. But Dong Xuebing had only played with his roommates and claimed he could play.

Dong Xuebing looked at them. Huh? Why are you all looking at me like this? I am not an idiot and know the rules of 3-Cards Brag.

Shen Xiaomei almost fainted.

Zhang Longjuan laughed. It is not about the rules. I overheard them talking about Zhou Hu and remembered someone. Although I have not met him, I heard of his name. The God of Cards. They call him Senior Zhou, and he should be the God of Cards. This guy is an expert in card games. He is on a different level from me. I will avoid him at all costs. He is someone I can never beat. Do you understand me?

Dong Xuebing narrowed his eyes. You are saying he can cheat. But didnt you say the casino cares a lot about its reputation? Does he dare to cheat here?

Zhang Longjuan replied. I dont know if he will cheat. But even if he cheated and were not caught, the casino would not be affected. This is a personal game between both of you. Its like what happened during your Mahjong game. They knew you might have done something, but they dont have the evidence.

Oh

Yes. Thats why I dont suggest you play with him. If you want to play Haha answer me truthfully. Can you win?

Dong Xuebing laughed. I will not lose even if he is the God of Cards or God of Gamblers.

Zhang Longjuan smiled. This is the answer I am looking forward to. Go on, and be careful.
