Chapter 536: How Much Do You Dare to Take Out? (Part One)
Haber said to Xu Cheng, “Don’t be angry, it’s your first time here so it’s normal.”
“No worries.” Xu Cheng smiled. He glanced at Young Master Lee and said, “After all, someone lost quite a bit of money, it’s understandable. But if someone’s gonna come out and gamble, he should at least be able to accept losses, or he might as well just go home and play MapleStory.”
Young Master Lee: “Who can’t accept losses?”
“I didn’t say you, you don’t have to take a general comment as a personal attack.” Xu Cheng glanced at him with disdain and waved at the waiter. “h.e.l.lo, can I get a plate of spaghetti?“
The waiter nodded and then brought over a plate soon after. Xu Cheng immediately began eating as he casually picked up a thousand dollars worth of chips from Haber’s pile and pa.s.sed it to the waiter.
The waiter was exhilarated. “Thank you, Sir!”
Young Master Lee snorted, “Isn’t it bad luck to spend money when gambling in your Huaxia culture? Doesn’t it mean you will lose money?”
“It’s fine, it’s not my money anyway.” Xu Cheng smacked his lips as he slurped the noodles. “I had some appet.i.te in the beginning, but now that I saw someone’s face, my appet.i.te has been greatly affected.”
Haber was speechless.
Xu Cheng patted him on the shoulder. “I’m joking. By the way, there’s no need to be superst.i.tious, you have to trust me.”
Then, Haber got pretty c.r.a.ppy hands for many rounds. Finally, for one round, he was able to get a triple.
Just when he was preparing to go big this round, Xu Cheng slurped on some noodles and said, “What a sh-tty hand, just fold.”
Haber was shocked. He whispered to Xu Cheng, “Do you know how to play this or not? This isn’t a good hand? It’s better than the hand I won with. You even told me to go hard with that kind of hand, and you want me to fold this one?”
Although he was whispering, other people still heard it.
Better than the hand he won with?
He seemed to have beat Young Master Lee with a pair of Aces, and to be bigger than that…
Three of a kind? Or a flush?
At this time, Young Master Lee subconsciously looked at his hand. He had a flush, but it was a small one, because the biggest card out of the flush was an 8!
This kind of hand was especially dangerous, because it wasn’t big nor small. If he was carrying a bigger flush, it would be awesome, but with 8 being the largest, it would be easy for him to get facked by another person’s bigger flush.
As for the other three that were at the table, after struggling for a bit, they all decided to fold one after another.
It was only Young Master Lee left there staring at Haber, wanting to see if there were any clues on his face.
Haber indeed felt three of a kind was a big hand, so he appeared very excited.
Seeing the tangled expression on Young Master Lee, Xu Cheng smiled. He couldn’t help but try to toy with him more in this psychological battle.
He said to Haber, “Oh really? I thought this hand was small. Then let’s go, 50 million!”
Haber nodded and laughed as he pushed 50 million into the pool.
Another 50 million?
Young Master Lee wanted to yell and swear. They didn’t even try to probe what his hand was? Does 50 million mean nothing to them?
Should I give it a shot too?
When he was struggling, the bodyguard standing by his side couldn’t help but chime in, “I think we should let this one go. It’s no problem to gamble with a bigger hand, but this kind of not-big-not-small hand is the most dangerous.”
He was right. Young Master Lee sighed and folded.
Haber laughed and said to Xu Cheng, “You see that? I already told you my hand is very big, and you didn’t believe me at first.

Then, he immediately got up and retrieved the 20 million that was already in the prize pool.
Young Master Lee stood up to flip Haber’s hand, and when he saw it was just three of a kind, he almost fell from his chair.
Xu Cheng giggled at him and said, “You really have no bottom line. Your will is so easily shaken, why do people like you gamble? Don’t businessmen like you always seek wealth from risk? Just three of a kind is enough to scare you? What a p-ssy.”
Young Master Lee fiercely glared at his bodyguard, blaming him for talking. He also felt regretful. If he had been determined to go on, then maybe he would’ve won back the 150 million he lost earlier!
Xu Cheng looked at that bodyguard and said, “You are not me, don’t copy me in trying to teach other people how to play.”
The bodyguard was so p.i.s.sed that he wanted to go and beat Xu Cheng up right away. However, Haber’s bodyguards weren’t just for decoration too. They immediately blocked him off, and then the bodyguard from Blackwater returned to standing behind Young Master Lee. There was a burning rage in him, but he could only stare at Xu Cheng.
The game continued.
After three rounds, this time, Young Master Lee got a super good hand.
Flush, one that had an Ace!
He pretended to be calm, not wanting other people to see through his facial expressions and scare away the lambs.
But at this time, Xu Cheng patted Haber on the shoulder and said, “Just fold, this round is no fun.”
Haber saw that he only had a pair. It was indeed too small and he was about to fold.
At this time, Young Master Lee couldn’t help but try to provoke Xu Cheng, “What is it? You acted like a big shot and bragged about winning 200 million from me for so long, and now you are being a coward?
“Yoho, provoking me now?” Xu Cheng smiled. Then, he looked at the other players at the table and said, “This guy’s hand must be pretty good, everyone, just fold. This kind of person is the typical type that bullies the weak and fears the strong. Look at the change in his tone, his hand must be great.”
As he said that, he folded Haber’s hand.
The other rich men looked at their hands. Mainly because their hands weren’t big as well, and with Xu Cheng instigating on the side, they were all thinking of folding too.
Young Master Lee got anxious.
Holy fack!
I wanted to use this round to make back some of the money I lost, why did you guys fold already?!
“What do you mean I have a good hand? Don’t get tempted by this kid!” Young Master Lee said.
“Look!” Xu Cheng had the “I see through you, b-tch” face on as he pointed at Young Master Lee and chuckled. “Your expression already betrayed you. If your hand isn’t good, why would you be nervous about other people folding?”
Hearing that, the three guys that were still hesitating a bit immediately folded.
Young Master Lee was about to puke out blood!
All four guys folded!
He only took what was initially in the prize pool, which was just a couple million.
“Turn over your hand and let us see,” Xu Cheng said.
The tyc.o.o.n sitting beside Young Master Lee flipped over his hand, and it was indeed a good hand.
“You see that? It was all a trap, if this guy has a good hand, it would be written all over his face.” Xu Cheng laughed and said, “You are too young.”
I’m young? You madafaka!
“If you want to play, then play, if not, then just get the fack out! Stop bsing over here. Do you even have the money to play? What about my skills? Let me tell you, people like you that don’t play with their own money and only know to chit chat on the side, you just won a few rounds out of luck, and you are already pretending to be an expert!”
Xu Cheng laughed. “Why do I feel that you are the one pretending? If you aren’t, then with that much a.s.sets that are supposedly under your name, why are you so anxious already with bloodshot eyes after losing just 200 million? Can you not touch your other a.s.sets? Or are those a.s.sets just what your daddy put under your name but won’t allow you to touch? If you don’t have the money, why are you here pretending to be rich? Look at the other gentlemen at this table, they aren’t even breathing heavily after losing a couple of hundred million. Only you are getting emotional. Sigh*.”
Young Master Lee immediately smacked the table. “Who said I don’t have money? Do you dare to play? I don’t care how much money you have, but I will use my money to teach you the difference between someone with real money and a leecher! Let me tell you, as long as you dare to play, then take money out. However much you take out, I will match it. Stop trying to act like a big shot with a mouth. To be honest, I still haven’t seen someone from Huaxia with big b.a.l.l.s yet. The so-called rich people in your country still have to suck up to the government to stay alive, but do you know what the Three-Star Corporation represents in my nation? Daring to go up against me? You really are a clueless kid!”
