The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 1234: The Face of Desire

Lin Tian stood at the elevator door, raising his eyes to observe the gambling arena in front of him, which was far less than he imagined.

Originally, he thought this gambling arena would be like Bai Shishi’s Xianglong Tea House before, but upon seeing it, he realized the difference was vast. Not to mention anything else, just the gambling equipment was on a completely different level. Compared to the previous Xianglong Tea House, this gambling arena was two or three grades higher.

Wu Yong held a black box filled with money, stood before Lin Tian, and pointed to a counter ahead, saying, "Tian, let’s go and exchange some gambling chips over there."

On the car earlier, Wu Yong and Lin Tian had discussed that the gambling chips were the universal currency of this gambling arena. This way, it could eliminate the cumbersome feeling of cash, turning a thick wad of money into a plastic piece the size of a coin, naturally making it much more convenient.

Moreover, these gambling chips were an incredibly profitable business for the gambling arena. Buying gambling chips worth one hundred with a hundred bucks, when leaving the arena, one could exchange the chips for money; however, one hundred would exchange for ninety only. Regardless, the gambling arena would always profit.

Of course, some cunning individuals had tried counterfeiting these chips, but that was easily detectable. The reason was simple: the chips were specially made, and counterfeiting them was almost as difficult as counterfeiting cash. Yet, the world never lacks those self-proclaimed clever people who think they can deceive heaven. But when caught in the act, karma truly comes back around.

This is the Wang Family’s gambling arena — opulent and luxurious, a haven for indulgence and excess. Those able to spend in this vault of gold were mostly upper-middle-class folks. Once caught, losing face and respect was inevitable, akin to cheating in cards.

In the gambling arena, what kind of person do people hate the most?

Undoubtedly, the answer would be cheaters!

Both within the gambling arena and among gamblers, cheaters were despised to the core. Once caught, if not someone significant, cutting off a finger was quite commonplace.

Lin Tian had stayed at Xianglong Tea House for a long time, and he was very familiar with these rules; however, he was indeed a cheater, as was Mei Ruyan. Yet due to their masterful skills, neither had ever revealed a flaw.

Lin Tian relied on his piercing vision and Spiritual Qi to cheat, whereas Mei Ruyan had long honed her cheating techniques to the extent of seamless fluidity, dazzling in its rapidity. A swift hand over the table allowed her to change several cards in hand, quick even by ordinary standards.

In front of the gambling chip exchange counter stood two charming girls in qipao dresses, showing off their fair arms and legs. Their hair was tied up, faces with light makeup, adorned with professional smiles, quite pleasing to the eye.

LuuYong followed last, observing normally, yet upon seeing those two beauties, he sighed to himself: Really damn good-looking!

LuuYong used to work as a star scout, having seen all sorts of beauties. But the two at the counter were so exquisitely pretty they could score a nine. If they wanted to break into showbiz, it would be too easy, with any bit of promotion quickly catapulting them to second or third-tier stardom, of course under certain unspoken conditions...

With such eye-pleasing beauties, Wu Yong’s roguish gaze naturally would not let them escape. Placing the heavy box on the counter, he stared intently, focusing solely on the alluring cleavage created by the tight-fitting qipao.

"Sir, how much chips would you like to exchange?" The counter lady smiled and asked, hardly minding Wu Yong’s wolfish gaze, even leaning slightly to expose her cleavage more.

"There’s two million in here, exchange fifteen for ten thousand, eight for five thousand, and the rest for one thousand each," Wu Yong said.

"Alright."

After a short while, the gambling chips were exchanged, Wu Yong took advantage of the opportunity to touch the counter girls’ hands several times, whispering something subtle that made the girl laugh vibrantly.

Once Lin Tian urged him, Wu Yong then reluctantly left the counter, while LuuYong kept the chips on him.

After walking past the counter, various gambling devices awaited not far ahead. Wu Yong rubbed his hands and said, "Tian, what do you know how to play? How about we play that?"

Lin Tian glanced at him, teasing, "Serves you right for losing. Haven’t seen you play these since childhood; of course you’ll lose!"

"I didn’t know before, but I do now. Besides, we didn’t lose because of luck," Wu Yong snorted disdainfully, realizing he had been set up, feeling naturally indignant.

He pointed at the gaming machine nearby and said, "Why not play that? If we hit a jackpot, it’ll be thrilling!"

Lin Tian looked where he pointed, spotting two rows of machines surrounded by people, some intensely pressing the choice buttons for betting, while others blushing and shouting words like ’Jackpot, Jackpot’.

Of course, there were people laughing heartily, and those pointing at machines and swearing loudly like quarrelling beldames.

This was a gambling arena, and those present were prominent figures outside, yet inside, everyone’s primal desires were bared — ugly but real.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a brown casual outfit stood up, violently kicking the machine. That kick struck heavily, instantly cracking the screen. Yet feeling it insufficient, he grabbed the chair he previously sat on and smashed it toward the machine.

"Shitty machine! Eats but never spits!"

Bang!

The chair slammed heavily, the screen shattered into fragments, the entire display was a mess, and the internal chips exposed were even sparking, frightening surrounding folks who backed away, unsure whether fearing the madman would toss the chair onto them or the machine catching fire.

After venting fiercely, the middle-aged man suddenly squatted on the ground, clutching his head and crying aloud, mumbling curses, his poignant cries resembled a cuckoo’s blood-weeping.

Suddenly, the crowd started discussing, pointing at that middle-aged man as though watching a spectacle.

"Has this guy gone mad? Daring to cause trouble here? What’s his background?"

"I know him, a rich second generation with no skills but spending money. A few days ago he played next to me and won tens of thousands, looking delighted, and now just a few days later he’s like this, guessing he’s lost even his pants~"

"Hehe, clearly a spoilt brat. Middle-aged and gambling, with bad luck, gold mountains would eventually lose too!"

Lin Tian and the others heard clearly from the side but didn’t join in, merely treating it as entertainment.

Meanwhile, dense footsteps sounded from behind, turning around they saw a group of people in gambling arena uniforms, ties pulled, sprinting over, clearly targeting that middle-aged man. Their stern expressions indicated this matter wouldn’t end simply.
