Wu Tian had heard from Ye Shan that although Chen Niu was at the treasure gambling arena every night, he didn't always show his face.
Therefore, finding him might be quite troublesome for Wu Tian.
This was why Wu Tian had done what he did earlier, intending to make a bigger name for himself to lure Chen Niu out.
He had expected to have to gamble in a few more matches before seeing Chen Niu, but he hadn't anticipated that this would be enough to make Chen Niu appear.
At this moment, Chen Niu appeared perfectly normal, and no one would have believed that he had just been involved in a killing.
It seemed this fellow was indeed a ruthless individual.
Wu Tian did not reveal his purpose immediately, but instead smiled at Chen Niu and said, "So you're Brother Niu? I've heard a lot about you. Seeing you today, you truly are extraordinary!"
Chen Niu laughed heartily, "Young man, you're quite eloquent."
"I watched your gamble earlier. You were indeed impressive, deliberately losing to lure that fool into the trap, and then devouring him."
"Such tactics are truly masterfully employed!"
The onlookers were stunned to hear this.
They hadn't realized that Wu Tian had his own strategies; they had all thought Wu Tian had simply gotten lucky!
Wu Tian was also somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected Chen Niu to have some discerning ability, which explained how he managed to build such a powerful influence.
He smiled and said, "Matters at the treasure gambling table are inherently about schemes and calculations. Brother Niu shouldn't think I did anything wrong, right?"
Chen Niu chuckled, "No, no, no, those were all normal tactics. I have no complaints about you."
"However, your skill has piqued my interest. I'd like to gamble a couple of rounds with you. What do you think?"
Everyone was astonished to hear this.
After all, Chen Niu rarely participated in gambling matches. Some people had been playing here for three or four years without ever seeing Chen Niu make a move.
Wu Tian was also slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Brother Niu wants to play with me? That might not be appropriate. With Brother Niu's status, how can you play with me?"
Chen Niu laughed, "Young man, don't say such things. On the treasure gambling table, there's only winning and losing, no status. Who can't gamble with whom?"
"I'm only interested in gambling with you because I see you have skill. Don't overthink it." httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Wu Tian noticed that Chen Niu kept looking at his briefcase as he spoke.
Since that was the case, the answer was quite obvious.
Chen Niu wasn't genuinely interested in playing with him; he had his eyes on the money he had.
There was nearly two million here, and it seemed Chen Niu didn't want him to leave with it.
Wu Tian couldn't help but sneer inwardly. This Chen Niu truly had a vile character.
With such a huge appetite, wasn't he afraid of choking to death?
However, outwardly, he still smiled and shook his head, "Perhaps it's best not to."
"Brother Niu's gambling skills are surely superior. Gambling with Brother Niu, I fear I might lose."
Chen Niu smiled and said, "Afraid of losing? Since you've come here, what is there to be afraid of losing? It's just for fun."
"I rarely seek people out to gamble with. Today, I've approached you, and if you refuse to gamble with me, it means you're not giving me face."
"I'm a person who values face above all else, so..."
A glint flashed in his eyes.
"Today, you must play this gamble with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, those thugs immediately stepped forward, revealing fierce expressions towards Wu Tian.
Seeing this, Wu Tian's sneer deepened.
This guy was truly showing his true colors, not even bothering to pretend anymore...
Seeing the scene before them, everyone finally understood.
It turned out Chen Niu intended to take all of Wu Tian's money!
For a moment, everyone couldn't help but cast sympathetic glances at Wu Tian.
In their eyes, Wu Tian's chips were likely beyond saving.
On the other side, Wu Tian looked at the thugs with unfriendly expressions and said with a cold smile, "Brother Niu, this isn't quite right, is it? Aren't you forcing me to gamble?"
Chen Niu smiled and said, "Look at what you're saying. How can this be considered forcing you to gamble?"
"Don't speak so harshly. I just want you to play with me, it's that simple."
"Of course, if you really don't want to play, that's fine too. My men will escort you upstairs."
To the crowd, these words were utter nonsense. It was likely that this so-called escorting upstairs meant giving Wu Tian a good beating.
Daring to disrespect Chen Niu here was simply inexcusable.
Wu Tian's original intention was merely to lure Chen Niu out and then attend to his business.
But since Chen Niu insisted on this turn of events, he felt that playing along with Chen Niu wouldn't be a problem.
So he nodded and smiled, "Since Brother Niu insists, then Brother Niu's face must be given, no matter what."
"If you want to play, then let's play. I only hope Brother Niu will go easy on me later!"
Chen Niu's smile took on a more cunning edge. He said, "Don't worry, it's just for fun. I'll definitely take care of you."
Everyone sighed softly.
They believed Wu Tian had fallen into the trap and was likely to be devoured by Chen Niu next.
Wu Tian returned to the treasure gambling table. Chen Niu clapped his hands, and a beautiful young woman immediately swayed her hips as she approached and sat on Wu Tian's lap.
Chen Niu smiled and said, "With a beautiful woman accompanying you tonight, young man, you can enjoy yourself here."
"Later, no matter who wins or loses, you can take this beauty home. Of course, if one isn't enough, I can add more."
Wu Tian frowned at the pungent perfume emanating from the woman, then directly pushed her away.
He smiled and said, "Brother Niu, let's skip this kind of thing. If we're playing, let's play properly. I don't need anything else."
Although Wu Tian hadn't gambled at the treasure gambling arena before, he could still guess Chen Niu's tricks.
This woman would constantly tease him, making him lose focus, and then Chen Niu could seize his mistakes.
Seeing that Wu Tian wasn't falling for the bait, Chen Niu seemed somewhat surprised.
However, he quickly smiled again and said, "It seems, young man, that you are a true gentleman."
"Alright, if you don't want a beauty, then don't. Let's play properly. What do you want to play?"
Wu Tian said calmly, "I'm not skilled in anything else, so let's stick to guessing numbers. It's simpler, isn't it?"
Chen Niu nodded, "Alright, as you wish. Let's play guessing numbers!"
"However, you've already gambled up to eight hundred thousand previously. If we go any lower, it won't be as interesting. How about this, we'll play for a million per round?"
"A million?!" Chen Niu's words shocked everyone.
Such a gamble would be considered significant even in Las Vegas!
Wasn't this a scene from a movie?
Wu Tian hadn't expected Chen Niu to propose such a stake immediately. It seemed Chen Niu intended to devour him in one go!
