The proprietress swayed her big buttocks triumphantly as she went back to exchange the cards. A moment later, she returned with a huge pile. Of course, Li Yang had won several hundred yuan this time, so buying all of them would have resulted in a huge pile.
Everyone looked on with greedy envy, wishing they could reach out and take all of these things for themselves.
Li Yang's hands and feet trembled with excitement, his eyes reddened, and he grabbed a handful of cards and stuffed them into the deck, directly betting on the "Big Three Dragons" – a clearly novice's gamble.
The onlookers booed again, expressing their disdain for Li Yang's novice behavior. Many more looked on with schadenfreude.
Sure enough, he lost this round, and several tens of dollars went down the drain.
A collective sigh escaped their lips. They all thought, "If only I had bet, what would have happened?" Unfortunately, the money wasn't theirs. The proprietress, however, remained calm, though inwardly she was overjoyed.
She couldn't help but use her enormous breasts to tease and comfort Li Yang again, saying, "Little brother, don't be nervous, there are still plenty left, aren't there? Anyway, you're going to win, it doesn't matter if you lose again, but what if you win again?"
Li Yang looked hesitant, and after listening to the proprietress's words, he asked in return, "Me, I can still win?"
"Of course, it might be another Grand Slam!" The proprietress would do everything she could to persuade him to keep playing.
"Okay, I'll listen to the boss lady." Li Yang gritted his teeth and clenched his fist.
He knew he wouldn't win in the next few rounds, but he didn't hesitate and bet tens of dollars each time. In the blink of an eye, he lost more than two hundred dollars. He had won five or six hundred dollars in the last round, but this time he lost almost half of it.
The onlookers were speechless at Li Yang. Every time he lost a game, they would sigh and wish they could push Li Yang aside and place their bets themselves.
The proprietress was getting impatient. She watched Li Yang lose money with a smile, occasionally touching him with her breasts to tease him and encourage him to keep playing.
Chapter 12: Slot Machines (Part 2)
After losing a few rounds, Li Yang's expression had already changed. Everyone could see that this grasshopper was about to lose his temper and either go berserk or give up entirely.
Everyone was eager to see what Li Yang would do next. Would he roll up his remaining cards, exchange them for cash, and leave, or would he bet everything on the board? Rolling up and leaving would mean less money, but he would still make a profit. If he continued betting, he could very well lose everything.
"Big sister, do you think I should continue betting?" Li Yang seemed distracted and didn't want to play anymore, but he was hesitant, so he handed the decision over to the proprietress.
The proprietress felt a tightness in her buttocks from being called "older sister," especially since the young man was so energetic and quite handsome. Feeling a surge of lust, she said in a coquettish tone, "Of course I want to press down, the more and more I press down, the better!"
The proprietress started flirting with Li Yang. Those in the crowd who understood chuckled, while those who didn't were completely bewildered. Li Yang, of course, understood perfectly.
Damn, what a slut!
"Then bet everything, all of them on the Big Three!" The proprietress maliciously urged Li Yang.
"Beat them! Beat them! Beat them!" The onlookers shouted at the same time. Although many people wanted to dissuade them, they dared not speak when they saw the crowd.
"Okay... then let's listen to everyone, listen to the boss lady. Win or lose, if we win it's just good luck, if we lose it's no one's fault. Let's bet on Big Three!" Li Yang said loudly, and placed the remaining two hundred-plus bets on Big Three.
The slot machine started spinning, and everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the moving red light. Suddenly, the red light stopped—a Grand Slam, yet another Grand Slam.
"Ah...how is this possible..."
"Wow, this machine is so cute..."
"Damn, this guy's luck is incredible..." the crowd shouted, their excitement palpable. They stared blankly at the machine that was still relentlessly spraying cards.
It sprayed for quite a while, and there was so much that it was impossible to catch it all.
"Hahaha... Thank you everyone, thank you boss lady, you are all so cute, I love you all to death..." Li Yang's cheeks were flushed with excitement, looking like he might have a heart attack or cerebral hemorrhage at any moment.
"I won't gamble anymore, I won't gamble anymore... I'm really sorry to trouble you, ma'am, hehe..." Li Yang grabbed the ma'am's hand with sparkling eyes and said eagerly.
The proprietress felt like slapping herself. Why had she been so foolish as to insist he bet on the last round? She could have just let him take that little bit of money and leave! Her smile was incredibly awkward, but she couldn't show her displeasure, so she forced a smile and said, "Little brother, you're really lucky! Are you a virgin?"
Li Yang immediately felt embarrassed, scratching his head and blushing without saying a word.
"Hehehe... Damn, from now on, no virgins accepted!" The proprietress's seemingly angry remark elicited chuckles from the crowd. Many, however, were secretly regretting their actions. "Damn it, why were I in such a hurry? If I were still a virgin, I could have made a fortune!"
Regardless of their intentions, even though the proprietress was extremely unwilling, she still exchanged several thousand yuan worth of chips for Li Yang. Watching Li Yang's smug figure disappear from sight, the proprietress's face suddenly darkened, she cursed angrily, and went to greet the other players.
After walking a distance from the arcade, Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Looking around and finding no one following him, he was in high spirits, humming a tune as he prepared to have lunch before heading to the casino to make some money.
But just as he reached the entrance of an alley, two panting young men suddenly rushed out from the side. Li Yang narrowed his eyes and stopped in his tracks. With his photographic memory, he could naturally tell that these two were the audience members from the arcade earlier.
Clearly, the two men were envious of Li Yang's big win and had come to rob him.
"What do you want? To rob me?" Although Li Yang wasn't very scared, he was still a little nervous. Although his body had been cleansed by the immortals and he could feel that his body was much stronger than before, he had always been a good kid and rarely fought with others. His fighting experience was limited, and he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive when he encountered the two of them.
"Kid, you're in luck today. You've heard of splitting the winnings in half, right? If it weren't for us guys cheering you on, would you have won this much? You're so ungrateful, you don't even know how to offer a little something to your brothers. Hurry up, don't make us lay a hand on you, leave half the money and we'll let you go. Otherwise, we'll not only beat you up, but we won't leave you a single penny!" A young man with a face full of acne arrogantly pointed at Li Yang's nose and said.
"Hurry up!" Another short, stocky young man stepped closer, seemingly intending to forcibly seize it.
"Strike first and you'll be strong; strike later and you'll suffer!" Ever since Li Yang acquired the ability to remember everything he saw, not only did he find high school courses incredibly easy, but he also read a lot of extracurricular books and developed a superior mindset. Now, he has a sense of confidence and detachment when looking at problems and doing things.
So, just as the short, stocky youth took a step closer, his eyes flashing with malice as he tried to snatch it, Li Yang's eyes turned cold, and he suddenly kicked the short, stocky youth in the knee. He had no fighting experience and wasn't entirely sure of his own strength, so he used all his strength in that kick.
A leg flashed, and with a crack, the young man, pale-faced, collapsed to the ground clutching his leg. Li Yang was startled. Damn it, might as well go all the way. Hitting one or two is the same, so why not just start over?
He charged towards the acne-ridden youth without stopping. The acne-ridden youth was actually no match for the short, stocky youth in a fight. He was tall, but too weak. He thought this robbery would be easy; he was just there to make a show of things, and the short, stocky youth could handle it all by himself. Suddenly seeing the short, stocky youth clutching his leg and screaming in pain, he was somewhat stunned.
But before he could regain his senses, a fist flashed by, and a huge fist slammed solidly into his face. His head buzzed, and he flew sideways and fell to the ground.
"withdraw!"
Li Yang suddenly unleashed such formidable strength, instantly taking down the two men. He was so excited and nervous that his whole body trembled, and without saying a word, he took off running.
After running for a while, panting heavily, Li Yang finally slowed down when he reached the bustling, crowded streets. His empty stomach started rumbling, and looking at the sun, it was already past noon. He wasn't sure how long he had spent in the arcade, but he had left Sister Cao's house around 11:00 AM, so it was clearly past noon now.
Looking up, all I saw were flashy designer clothes and upscale restaurants, where a meal would easily cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
Damn, I'm rich now! I made a small profit today, so I'll open a lucky draw to pave the way for winning money this afternoon. I'll also have a nice meal and experience the atmosphere of a high-end restaurant.
