Underworld Chronicles: Qiao Si's Strategist, Xiao Ke, and Wang Weifan

Wang Bao was having a great time in a karaoke bar, with a young woman in his arms, engaging in all five methods of touching, licking, kissing, and penetration, and he was really enjoying himself.

One of his henchmen rushed in without knocking, startling Wang Bao.

"Damn it, don't you have hands? Can't you knock? You scared the hell out of me!" Wang Bao put the girl in his arms on the sofa and scolded his younger brother.

"Brother, there's trouble in our casino. Manager Tang wants you to go back right away," the underling said to him.

Who the hell dares to cause trouble in our area? Do I have to personally handle such a small matter? Are you guys just here to eat and do nothing?

Brother, it's Little K, the one who shot you before. He's come out of there.

Huh? This idiot, you haven't had enough of stepping on the sewing machine, have you? Come on, let's go take a look.

Upon hearing that Xiao Ke had come out, Wang Bao dared not be careless at all. He abandoned the girl he had just been entangled with and led his henchmen to hurry towards his casino.

When Wang Bao arrived at the casino, he took a closer look and saw that sitting there was none other than that jinx, Xiao Ke. Damn it, look at that unlucky idiot, smoking and squinting, he looked like he deserved to be punished.

Xiao Ke was playing Texas Hold'em at the moment, and the table was piled high with money. Wang Bao went up and patted Xiao Ke on the shoulder, "Hey, isn't this the God of Gamblers? When did he come out?"

Xiao Ke turned around and saw Wang Bao. "Ah, Boss Wang! How are you? Is your injury healed?"

As Xiao Ke spoke, he gave Wang Zhi and Zhang Guangyue a look, and the two of them understood and left the casino.

This was all arranged by Xiao Ke beforehand. Where did Wang Zhi and Zhang Guangyue go? They went to Wang Bao's house. Wang Bao's wife and son were both home. The two of them pretended to be repairmen, knocked on Wang Bao's door, and blocked his wife and son inside.

Thanks to you, everything's fine now. What's wrong? You're itching to play a few rounds already? Wang Bao sat down at the gambling table, with more than 10 henchmen standing behind him.

"Yeah, I'm itching to try my luck. Boss Wang, do you dare to make a bet with me?" Xiao Ke asked, puffing on his cigarette and glancing sideways at Wang Bao.

Upon hearing Xiao Ke's question, everyone else at the gambling table stood up on their own. It seemed that Xiao Ke had come to disrupt Wang Bao's gambling session. Everyone stopped gambling and came over to watch the excitement.

Hmph, you want to bet with me? What are we betting on? With so many people watching the show, Wang Bao naturally can't lower himself.

"I'll bet on your casino," Little K said, emphasizing each word.

"Hahaha, you want to bet on my place? What are you going to bet against me with?" Wang Bao lit a cigarette and said with a disdainful laugh.

This money, plus my two hands. Little Ke pushed all the money on the table onto the table, then took out a dagger from his pocket and placed it on top.

The onlookers stared wide-eyed. Little Ke was here to risk his life. Let's see if the old pro, Wang Bao, dares to accept the challenge.

"I have no interest in your hands, so why should I gamble with you?" Wang Bao said.

"I don't care if you don't gamble, I'll come every day until I win everything from your casino," Little K threatened.

"Damn it, this jinx is deliberately trying to cause trouble." Wang Bao looked around; everyone in the casino was staring at him.

"Fine, I'll play along. I'll chop off your hands." Wang Bao had heard that Xiao Ke was a skilled gambler, but he wasn't someone to be trifled with. Every casino owner has some tricks up their sleeve.

"Okay, Boss Wang, you decide what to play," Xiao Ke said.

"Then let's play Texas Hold'em! Bring me the cards!" Wang Bao shouted. A henchman immediately brought over a deck of cards.

Wang Bao started shuffling the cards. He was incredibly skillful, performing all sorts of shuffles: reverse shuffle, cross shuffle, machine gun shuffle, waterfall shuffle, and one-handed fan shuffle. He was like Chow Yun-fat in the movie God of Gamblers, playing with incredible finesse.

The sight of the other gamblers was almost blinding. Many nodded in admiration, having gambled here for years, and this was the first time they'd ever seen the boss play cards. He certainly had some skill; no wonder he could run a casino.

As the saying goes, laymen watch the spectacle, while experts see the details. While others were watching the spectacle, Xiao Ke stared at the cards in Wang Bao's hand and immediately realized that although he had been shuffling them left and right, the cards had not actually been moved at all and were arranged exactly as Wang Bao had planned.

After playing for a while, Wang Bao slammed the cards down on the table. "Come on, deal the cards!"

"Wait a minute~, you don't mind if I cut the cards, do you?" Little K suddenly said.

"Do as you please," Wang Bao said dismissively.

Then Xiao Ke casually cut the cards three times. In just a few seconds, Xiao Ke not only disrupted the order in which Wang Bao shuffled the cards, but also arranged them in the order he had planned. No one present, including Wang Bao and his people in the casino, could tell that Xiao Ke was cheating.

"Is it all cut up? Here, the guest of honor should go first," Wang Bao said confidently.

A waiter started by dealing cards to Xiao Ke, then to Wang Bao, giving each of them three cards.

"Come on, it's a one-round game anyway, let's show our cards." Wang Bao said, turning over three cards in his hand—three Kings.

Wang Bao was stunned for a moment. Wait a minute, I played three Aces, how did it turn into three Kings? Maybe it was because Xiao Ke cut the cards. It's okay, this hand is big enough.

When they saw Wang Bao's hand, the onlookers gaped in astonishment, their jaws dropping. The hand was incredibly strong; Xiao Ke was doomed to lose.

But when Xiao Ke pulled out the three Aces in his hand, everyone was stunned, and Wang Bao was so shocked that he stood up from his stool.

"This is impossible, impossible," Wang Bao said, looking at Xiao Ke's cards.

"Boss Wang, you shuffled the cards, your people dealt them, maybe I was just lucky," Xiao Ke said with a smile.

Wang Bao strode up to Xiao Ke and whispered in his ear, "Kid, you think you can take my casino so easily? You're dreaming!"

Boss Wang, I advise you to accept the consequences of your bet. Didn't you see that I only brought one brother with me? My other two brothers are at your house right now, and your wife and son are there too, right?

"What do you want to do?" Wang Bao asked, his face twitching.

"Your two brothers, one nicknamed 'Wang the Crotch' and the other 'Zhang the One-Finger,' I can't guarantee the safety of your wife's fingers or your son's manhood," Xiao Ke threatened.

"You're fucking despicable! You shouldn't even involve your family in this! Nobody in the underworld would do something like this!" Wang Bao roared.

Damn it, you still have the nerve to call me despicable? You were the one who set off our firecrackers a year ago, so we can't let this year of jail meals go to waste.

I'm giving you two options: one is to come back to my home with me, and we'll sign an agreement where the casino will be mine, and I can guarantee the safety of your wife and son.

Secondly, we're waiting for your son to be childless, and for your wife's fingers. Listen carefully, you have half an hour before my brothers make their move. Xiao Ke said, forcefully stubbing out his cigarette with two fingers.

What choice will Wang Bao, threatened by Xiao Ke, make next? Stay tuned for the next episode.
