17 Chapter 17

Without Lixue doing anything, Ningjui won the first round. He exhaled his breath in relief while Guang Rong gritted her teeth. She realized her mistake and glared hatefully at Ningjui.

"1-0. Please place your bet for round 2." The managerial staff announced.

Guang Rong bet on low numbers from 1-18. This way, Ningjui couldn't choose the other half percent chance outside bets because it will overlap with Guang Rong's choice except for high numbers.

Ningjui was about to choose it when Guang Rong glared at him again. Fortunately for him, he was too nervous to notice it and bet on high numbers.

After accepting the bet, the android started the roulette. When the ball was about to enter the roulette wheel, Lixue deployed his demonic energy. The ball jumped around and was about to enter pocket number 11 when the trajectory curved slightly into the edge and landed on 30 instead.

Guang Rong was watching the ball with cold sweat. When it was about to land in 11, her heart was tight, and she almost couldn't suppress her joy. But, it unexpectedly rolled crookedly and entered the pocket next to it instead. Her heart fell and she stood up in disbelief and anger.

"You cheated!!" Guang Rong pointed at Lixue.

Lixue sighed in exhaustion and glanced at the managerial staff. The managerial staff felt his patience wearing thin, "Miss Guang, I believe all of us here at this table witnessed that the guest over there didn't do anything and just watch the game quietly behind the escort. His distance was further than you and he didn't even speak to the escort. If Miss Guang still has some doubt, would you like to invite an expert to analyze the footage of the game whether or not it was natural? But do take note that the price of inviting the expert will be fully paid by yourself."

"That…" Guang Rong hesitated.

If that man truly didn't cheat, then not only she will lose her credit, she will also have to pay for the expert. She did have more credit in her account, but if she loses the next round…

"If Miss Guang doesn't want to call an expert–"

"Wait! Can't that android do something? It should be able to calculate the trajectory, right? Use it to check and show it to us! If you refuse, I will have no choice but to suspect that this casino collided with that bitch to cheat me." Guang Rong demanded.

The managerial staff frowned. What Guang Rong just said was an offence to the casino. Each table has its own surveillance and this whole game was recorded including Guang Rong's statement. He was 100% sure that Guang Rong will definitely be blacklisted by the casino after this game finish. Before he could answer, Lixue beat him to it.

"Miss Cuckolder, is it not enough for you to accuse me and now you have to accuse this innocent casino too? If you search in the whole Federation, you will find no other place as fair as here. The android dealer is bribe-proof, the analogue game is hack-proof, and the betting system is trick-proof. What nonsense are you spouting now? Don't blame your bad luck on the game, the player, or the game provider. Blame it to your crappy karma."

The managerial staff felt grateful to Lixue for his words. He decided to just continue the game rather than catering Guang Rong's tantrum, but Guang Rong didn't want to back off.

"Heh! You're saying all that righteous speech just because you're scared that your trick would be discovered if we let the android check it don't you?" Guang Rong sneered.

The spectator would also feel the same as Guang Rong if this was said before this whole ordeal started. But now, they thought the same as the managerial staff and regarded Guang Rong as throwing a tantrum. They all watched the whole game process and that the young man was really just standing there watching the game.

"Miss Guang, don't be unreasonable."

"Miss Guang, if you're doing this just to avoid playing the third round, I suggest you stop. Right now, you look very disgraceful and pathetic."

Lixue spoke again, "If you're so hung up about it, then fine by me. We can check the footage together with everyone. But what if you are wrong? Again? Shouldn't you consciously set a clear condition of your own willfulness?"

"If I'm correct, this game is over with me as the winner. You will give me 10 times your in-hand credit and become my servant. You will have to obey my every command from then on." Guang Rong said triumphantly.

"That is such a snobbish and childish demand that is just as expected of Miss Cuckolder. I asked you what you will do if you're wrong, yet you only fantasized about your win. I'm afraid you need to go back and learn basic language lesson. Your language comprehension is beyond my understanding."

The spectators laughed in mockery and satisfaction when they watched Guang Rong's face became colorful.

"Fine! If I'm wrong, then I will give you 10 times of my in-hand credit just as promised and the game ends here without the third round."

Lixue waited for a while, but Guang Rong didn't continue, "Huh? Just that?"

"Miss Guang, you demand him to be your servant if he loses, but you will only hold up the initial deal if you win? That is not quite fair, don't you think? In addition, you're the one who is raising an unreasonable fuss here and we can't continue playing because of you." one of the spectators said in annoyance.

"You're ruining our fun time. We're here to play and getting money along the way, but we can't continue here because of your tantrum." Another one chimed in.

"You demanded this young man to be your servant if he loses. Then isn't it only fair if you also do the same in the case you lose?" a lady suggested with a mocking laugh.

"That lady is right."

"Yes, she's right."

The guests on the table agreed one after another. They pressured her to accept the term. A guest even suggested Lixue to use legal contract to make sure Guang Rong didn't back off from the deal once she loses.

"Shut up, shut up, shut up!! Shut up you bitches!" Guang Rong finally snapped and slapped a guest within her reach who came only to watch the fun.

The guest was stunned from shock. Lixue lifted his hand to cover his upturned mouth. His eyes bent to crescent and became a tad gradient of red. He quickly cooled down his excitement, but his mouth still couldn't flatten so he kept his hand on his mouth.

After recovering, the guest's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He ordered his 2 bodyguards to restrain Guang Rong back to her chair. Guang Rong struggled furiously, but she was no match for the 2 thick-muscled bodyguards.

"Who do you think you are?!! You won't get away with this!! When my husband comes back he will cut your hands off!" Guang Rong hysterically shouted.

The guest didn't mind her and looked at Lixue, "This gentleman, would you mind if I take her if she loses? I will ensure to thoroughly help you exact compensation from her. One way or another."

Lixue leaned on the chair Ningjui was sitting on supported by his arms, "One way or another…huh?"

With a smile, he forwarded the contract made by Lulu under his instruction to the guest. His sign was already there with another 2 empty signature spots for the guest and Guang Rong. The guest unhesitatingly signed it and Guang Rong was also forced to sign.

After everything was settled, the managerial staff showed all the guests watching on the table the footage of the roulette with the system's analysis next to it. The result was it was 100% a natural occurrence with 73% possibility of happening.

Even without Lulu's help to hack the system, Lixue already expected this result. He didn't directly interfere with the ball's trajectory, only made it slip using the surface. This kind of slip was very natural and could happen all the time in a spinning roulette.

Lixue won and all the in-hand credit in the betting went to him. Guang Rong's account was squeezed dry to pay the required 10 times. As expected, her allowance as a mistress wasn't that much. Not to mention, she couldn't give birth to any child after 2 years of being married. Her worth in the Yuan family was declining and she knew that. That's why she always gambled here to earn more allowance for herself and found another 8 men to be her patron.

When the guest was about to leave with Guang Rong, they suddenly heard a voice a few steps away from the table.

"Where are you taking her?"
