Are You Sure You Want to Bet Your Entire Betrothal Gift?

Xie Hongyuan only had 50,000 taels of silver notes on him a moment ago, but thanks to his momentum of winning ten consecutive rounds, he has now amassed a million taels.

He was incredibly excited. "Zhou Wanwan, if you bring these silver notes into my Cui Family, I'll treat you very well from now on."

Zhou Wanwan looked up at him and said, "Heh, dreaming again! Is your Cui Family living off your dreams now?"

Xie Hongyuan, "Fine, then don't. Just wait until you've lost everything, then we'll see what you do!"

A crowd gathered around, all jeering, "Is he cursed by bad luck? I've never seen anyone lose ten games in a row!"

"Who exactly is this little kid? Why is nobody paying attention to her?"

"This must be worth several million taels of silver. Whose unlucky child is this?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "I'm betting 2 million this time, anyone want to follow?"

Zhou Wanwan glanced at Cheng Chao Cheng Chao, who immediately said, "This time, I'll bet 500,000."

Shen Wanjun, standing nearby, quickly pulled out all his belongings. "1 million... I... I'll bet it all. I refuse to believe I can be this unlucky."

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and asked, "What about you? Are you betting on big or small?"

Xie Cheng'en asked, "What are you betting on?"

"I'll bet on big." Xie Cheng'en changed his mind as soon as Zhou Wanwan finished speaking.

I'm betting on big.

Zhou Wanwan said nonchalantly, "Then I'll bet on small! Good luck to you guys."

Xie Cheng'en said loudly, "Since you've put up 2 million, then I'll put up 2 million too. Anyway, I've already won so much, it doesn't matter!"

Xie Hongyuan bet all his money, saying, "If I win this round, I won't come back. One million taels; if I win, it'll be two million taels."

Humans are inherently greedy.

Those from Beijing were naturally incredibly excited when they saw Zhou Wanwan losing every single game.

Only a few were relatively conservative; the rest brought out all their belongings.

But soon, the dealer opened the dice cup.

Everyone's face changed. "It's huge! My God! My one million taels, waaaaah..."

The dealer looked down at the dice cup and saw three sixes neatly arranged inside. His face turned ashen.

"Leopard! Leopard! Three sixes! Our rule here is, a leopard pays out tenfold!"

Zhou Wanwan bet 2 million taels, and a tenfold payout would amount to 20 million taels, bringing her total to 22 million taels including principal and interest.

The moment those words were spoken, the entire room fell silent. Everyone was stunned, their eyes wide open, forgetting even to breathe.

Zhou Wanwan looked at their stunned expressions and smiled gently:

"Oh dear, how can I accept this! When luck comes, you can't stop it."

You guys calculated things quite well, but I didn't expect to get a leopard as soon as I got serious.

You see, luck always comes back.

So from now on, you'd better watch your mouth when you say things like "jinx" or "unlucky guy." I hate hearing that kind of talk.

Xie Yan's entire face turned bright red.

What do you need so much money for, you young girl?

You won all our money, how can you be so shameless? That's over twenty million taels of silver!

Zhou Wanwan's eyes were full of mockery:

"No way! No way! You guys are actually saying things like that? Are you sore losers?"

So this is what scions of prominent families from the capital are like!

Look at the people of Dongshan Prefecture, we've lost, so what? We don't need to waste time with all this nonsense.

Several people from Dongshan Prefecture who already disliked this group from the capital chimed in:

"This little girl just lost so much, throwing away millions of taels of silver, without uttering a sound."

Now that you've lost, you're complaining and whining. Aren't you ashamed?!

Zhou Wanwan tucked away the stacks of silver notes and said, "Looks like we can go home and sleep now."

Xie Cheng'en looked at her and said:

"Stop right there! We haven't even started the official competition yet!"

Who do you think you are? You think you can just walk away after winning? No way!

Zhou Wanwan looked at them with disdain and said:

"Do you guys have any money left to gamble? It's not that I look down on you!"

"Really... you guys look like paupers, I don't even want to gamble with you."

Xie Cheng'en almost fainted from anger:

You little brat! Who do you think you are?

The old man has plenty of money; if he doesn't have money, he still has his estate and shops!

"Someone, bring all of the old man's belongings here."

The servants beside him trembled and said, "Young master, we can't gamble anymore, or we'll go bankrupt."

"The master will beat us to death."

Xie Cheng'en sneered, "If you don't hand over the item now, I'll beat you both to death right now!"

Cui Hongyuan said, trembling, "Go, bring me my estates, and also my wife's betrothal gifts."

Everyone was stunned, including Zhou Wanwan.

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "Cui Hongyuan, you haven't even delivered the betrothal gifts to the Fang Family yet. If you lose, don't come looking for me!"

Cui Hongyuan scoffed, "With your luck, you were just lucky last time. You're bound to lose this time."

A gambler's mentality is such that they can never handle a sense of disappointment.

Zhou Wanwan lost ten games in a row, giving them a great taste of success.

Now that they've been suddenly plunged into despair, they're even less able to handle it.

Everyone was hoping to win back their losses in this round.

Zhou Wanwan sighed and said:

Are you sure you want to stake all your betrothal gifts?

"Before you put it up, you have to write me a contract, otherwise what if you deny it?"

Cui Hongyuan and said, "It's just a contract, isn't it? My betrothal gifts add up to a full 2 million taels!"

Zhou Wanwan didn't care how much money he had; Cui Hongyuan had all his betrothal gifts brought over.

This is going a bit too far; everyone's just watching the show.

Zhou Wanwan and Cui Hongyuan wrote a contract directly.

She smiled and asked, "Anyone else want to place a bet?"

The people of the capital were not to be outdone, and they directly took out all their possessions, which totaled more than 4 million taels.

Zhou Wanwan immediately pulled out 22 million taels of silver. "I'm betting it all. You can do whatever you want. It's all winnings anyway, so it doesn't matter."

This amount of money is really nothing to Zhou Wanwan.

But for others, they might never see so much money in their entire lives.

To everyone else, it seemed like madness.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the head of the village and said, "Let's begin now!"

The dealer had never seen such a huge win or loss before; his hands trembled violently, and he quickly began tossing the dice.

Finally, Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "Have you thought it through? Are you going to bet on big or small this time? I'll let you choose first."

After discussing it for a long time, Xie Cheng'en shouted loudly, "Little little little..."

The dealer then slowly opened the dice cup, and stared dumbfounded at the three sixes inside.

Zhou Wanwan laughed loudly, "How can someone be so lucky? 22 million taels of silver instantly turned into 242 million taels of silver."

Everyone in the capital was stunned. Xie Yan's legs went weak, and she sat down on the ground.

Xie Cheng'en wasn't much better, shouting, "Zhou Wanwan, you're cheating!"
