Gene Unlocking: I Evolve Every Day

Chapter 180: Chapter 163: A Huge Profit of Over 800 Million Hong Kong Dollars

What?

Two fives turned into a ten of spades and a six of hearts?

The audience in the viewing area erupted in disbelief.

”What’s going on?”

”Didn’t I just see Suqi’s two hole cards were a pair of fives?”

”How could it be! How did her cards change to a ten of spades and a six of hearts?”

”What the hell is going on here?”

The casino’s top brass were all stunned, shouting in disbelief.

Cheng Rong’s eyes were wide open.

Unable to believe it, he rubbed his eyes.

It felt like he was dreaming, trying to wake himself up by rubbing his eyes!

Unfortunately, no matter how much Cheng Rong rubbed his eyes, Suqi’s two hole cards on the big screen remained a ten of spades and a six of hearts!

Cheng Rong was really dumbfounded, unable to understand the situation.

Suddenly, he noticed Lu Li’s inscrutable smile on the big screen, and something clicked in his heart!

Qin Liang and Zhao Chun’ai felt the same.

Both were staring blankly.

It took a long while before they snapped out of their shock.

”Haha,” Qin Liang laughed heartily, ”Mr. Lu is indeed a cut above the rest. When I first saw his two cards, I thought he was bound to lose, but I didn’t expect Suqi’s hole cards to be worse!”

Zhao Chun’ai knew something must have happened, but now was definitely not the time to discuss it.

She smiled wryly and said, ”Isn’t it? Who would have thought the final result would be like this, that the three houses’ full houses would fold, and the ultimate win of over seven hundred sixty million dollars would be by Mr. Lu’s two pairs, haha, it’s really fascinating.”

As she said this, she deliberately glanced at Cheng Rong.

Cheng Rong, lost in thought, didn’t notice Zhao Chun’ai’s glance.

Ye Xiaobing, Mei Ruohua, and others were all shocked, but since they weren’t directly involved in the betting, they didn’t show much emotion, only confusion in their eyes.

The ones with the most intense reaction were probably Wang Qin, Old Zhang, and others who came to supervise.

At first, they all thought they had a sure win and were secretly pleased, thinking Lu Li would end up crying in despair.

Who would have thought that in less than a minute, their faces would be filled with despair!

”Damn, he cheated!”

”He definitely swapped Suqi’s cards!”

”Damn, openly cheating and switching cards in broad daylight, does he have any respect for the law?”

”I damn well don’t accept this, ask President Cheng to review if this guy cheated!”

Wang Qin, Old Zhang, and the other supervisors were all furious, demanding a review.

Sitting not far from them, Zhang Jianmin, who had been eliminated, was so frightened by these words that he jumped up.

Zhang Jianmin quickly ran over to them, whispering, ”If you do this, aren’t you putting us and President Cheng in danger?”

Hearing Zhang Jianmin’s reminder, Wang Qin, Old Zhang, and others suddenly realized.

Yes.

They absolutely couldn’t review it.

Otherwise, Zhang Jianmin and Zhao Haizhe’s cheating would definitely be discovered.

Actually, Wang Qin, Old Zhang, and others didn’t care if Zhao Haizhe and Zhang Jianmin were caught cheating and reported to the police.

What they cared about was if those cheaters were caught, they would certainly expose the boss behind them.

Additionally, it would affect Cheng Rong.

In other words, a review was out of the question.

But if there was no review, didn’t that mean losing several billion Hong Kong Dollars to Lu Li again tonight?

Though they were unwilling and hated to admit losing that much money.

They could only swallow their pride and accept it.

Otherwise, their boss and Cheng Rong would be in trouble.

For a moment, Wang Qin, Old Zhang, and others were extremely frustrated, their faces flushed with anger as they sat there.

They knew full well that Lu Li cheated.

Even if they didn’t know how he did it.

But they had to accept losing billions.

The immense frustration was almost unbearable!

Wang Qin, Old Zhang, and others were so mad they could gnash their teeth.

Originally, they planned to avenge their previous humiliation tonight.

To win back the money Lu Li took from their boss.

Who knew they’d end up with nothing and lose even more!

Not only did they fail to win back the previous losses, but they ended up losing billions more!

...

At the gambling table.

Suqi was shocked to the extreme, her eyes instantly turning bloodshot.

She was about to harshly accuse Lu Li of cheating and switching cards.

But reason told her, under no circumstances should she say those words, or the consequences would be dire!

Zheng Ya’s face turned ashen.

Zhao Haizhe was trembling all over.

Greg’s eyes were filled with despair.

These master cheats used all their skills to try to outwit Lu Li.

But in the end, even the five of them together were thoroughly beaten by Lu Li!

Not to mention how much money they lost this time, they might be blamed by the inviting boss later.

Just mentioning that five top con artists failed to besiege Lu Li, if this gets out, who would dare hire them again in the future?

At this moment, Lu Li glanced at the four top con artists and said coolly, ”Miss Suqi has lost all her chips and is about to leave the game. The three of you still have some chips left. Do you want to continue gambling?”

Zheng Ya shivered and waved her hand repeatedly, saying, ”Forget it, forget it, I’m a bit tired tonight and don’t want to play anymore.”

Zhao Haizhe also quickly shook his head and said, ”If Ms. Zheng isn’t gambling, it’s pointless for just the three of us to play. I’m not planning on continuing either.”

Greg nodded stiffly.

Damn!

You won several billion tonight.

And now you’re actually eyeing the chips we have left?

Zheng Ya, Zhao Haizhe, and Greg aren’t fools.

Of course, they know that Lu Li’s ”card sharp skills” surpass theirs.

Yes, at this moment, they are completely convinced that Lu Li is definitely a true master of card sharp skills, possibly the greatest in the world.

Why are Zheng Ya, Zhao Haizhe, and Greg so sure?

It’s simple. Previously, when Lu Li played with Zhang Jianmin, he had already demonstrated the powerful card sharp skill of changing cards from a distance.

At the time, they thought Zhang Jianmin was just getting old and made a mistake, so they didn’t look into it further.

But now, Suqi’s two fives were swapped for a ten of spades and a six of hearts.

This made Zheng Ya, Suqi, Zhao Haizhe, and Greg all realize one thing.

That Lu Li indeed has the incredible ability to swap cards from a distance with his extraordinary card sharp skills!

Such card sharp skills are undoubtedly astonishing and dazzling.

Zheng Ya, Suqi, Zhao Haizhe, and Greg can say with certainty that no one in the world can reach such a level.

One could say they’ve already acknowledged in their hearts that Lu Li is the ”King of Kings” of con artists.

Therefore, they certainly can’t continue playing with Lu Li.

Otherwise, they’d lose all their chips, not only losing all the money the boss hired them with but also having to pay a large sum themselves.

This Mr. Lu’s card sharp skills are truly terrifying!

How did he manage to master such an incredibly sophisticated technique of changing cards from a distance?

Zheng Ya, Suqi, Zhao Haizhe, and Greg, as well as Zhang Jianmin and others sitting in the audience, all had this question in their hearts.

Seeing this group of con artists too scared to gamble with him, Lu Li couldn’t be bothered to continue pressing them.

He turned his head to the female dealer and said, ”After deducting the rake, help me change the chips into money and transfer it into the designated account.”

The female dealer quickly said, ”Okay, please wait a moment, Mr. Lu.”

As she spoke, she deducted a 3% rake according to the rules.

This time, the pot prize reached seven hundred and sixty-seven million and six hundred and seventy-six thousand.

After deducting the rake, there was seven hundred and forty-four million and five hundred and four thousand and twenty left.

The female dealer returned a stack of chips to Lu Li and respectfully said, ”Please check the number of chips to see if it’s correct.”

Lu Li had already used his spiritual power to count them and knew exactly how many chips were there.

He generously set aside the small change, ”These chips are yours, thank you for your service tonight.”

Yes, in these high-stakes games, it’s customary to tip the dealers afterward, usually a few thousand chips.

The female dealer didn’t expect Lu Li to be so generous, giving over fifty-four thousand chips all at once, and immediately beamed, ”Thank you, thank you, Mr. Lu.”

Lu Li waved his hand and said, ”No problem, just help me convert the money and transfer it to the account.”

The female dealer quickly said, ”I’ll inform President Cheng right away and ask him to find a legal way to help you transfer the money into the designated account.”

With that, she hurried over to the spectators’ area.

The four top con artists, Suqi, Zheng Ya, Greg, and Zhao Haizhe, stood up and took their leave with grim faces.

Only Lu Li remained seated without leaving immediately.

He was still pondering the events of the night.

Tonight, I faced these top con artists in a showdown.

After deducting the one billion four hundred and sixteen million cost.

And the dealer tip of over fifty-four thousand.

I won approximately six billion and three hundred eighty-nine million in total.

This has far exceeded my initial goal when I came to Macau Entertainment City.

Initially, my goal was to win four to five billion Hong Kong Dollars.

Who would have thought that these top con artists tonight would make my ”mission” exceed expectations?

To be honest, if unforeseen ”accidents” hadn’t occurred, my biggest possibility might have been to clean out the chips of Zhang Jianmin, Zhao Haizhe, Suqi, Zheng Ya, and Greg.

Even without the rake, it would be roughly five billion Hong Kong Dollars.

In fact, after several rounds and deducting the rake, Lu Li estimated he might have won only a little over four billion five hundred million.

But Zhang Jianmin made an extra bet of one billion with me.

And Suqi wanted to go all-in against me.

This made me ultimately win six billion and three hundred eighty-nine million Hong Kong Dollars.

On the surface.

This Macau trip earned a full one billion and three hundred eighty-nine million Hong Kong Dollars more than my original goal of five billion.

In reality, Lu Li knows he’s won far more than that.

Last night, he won two billion six hundred eighty million.

Adding up the two nights, he has won a total of eight billion seven hundred twenty million Hong Kong Dollars.

Converting this into Chinese Yuan, it’s roughly eight billion and sixty million fifty thousand.

Plus, I have just under one billion in cash myself.

That means I’ve completed nearly half of the twenty billion target funds needed for engine research and development?

Thinking of this, Lu Li couldn’t help but feel secretly pleased.

My trip to Macau this time was truly worth it.

Otherwise, how could I have gathered almost half of the research funds so quickly?
