Chapter 367 Another Gamble
Tang Qianqian asked, "What are we betting on?"
Wen Shao laughed and said, "Of course it's a game of billiards. Last time I was lucky enough to let you guys win ten million from me, so this time I'm going all out."
Li Wei laughed and said, "What? Lost the bet last time and want to win it back?"
Wen Shao said, "That's right, ten million. That's no small sum. If I don't find a way to win it back, I won't be able to sleep at night! So, are you willing to bet?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Qianqian frowned. Li Wei transmitted his voice and said, "Qian, I feel like this young master Wen is here to give us money today. Why don't we gamble with him and put his arrogance to a halt? Anyway, we have nothing else to do. We shouldn't refuse money that's been handed to us."
Seeing that Tang Qianqian seemed hesitant, Wen Shao said, "That's true. How dare you newbies bet against a top-notch billiards player like me, Qin Shao? You agree, right?"
Young Master Qin laughed and said, "That's right, they're just a few newbies. How could they dare to bet with you? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?"
Li Wei smiled slightly and said, "Young Master Wen, you overestimate yourself! Did we say we wouldn't gamble with you?"
Seeing that the other party had indeed fallen for the trap, Wen Shao was overjoyed and laughed, "Good, anyone who doesn't gamble is a coward."
As he spoke, he turned back and gave Qin Shao a sinister smile, then waved his hand and said, "Let's go."
Tang Qianqian looked at Baihe, clearly seeking her opinion. After all, besides Bufan, Baihe was the eldest in the family. Baihe understood, smiled slightly, and said, "It looks like a lot of fun. Sisters, let's go join in the fun!"
Arriving at the entertainment center he had visited before, Wen Shao was greeted by those who knew him and the group of stunningly beautiful girls following behind him. Wen Shao felt a surge of pride and wore a smug smile.
Walking to the center of the billiards room, Wen Shao clapped three times and then said, "Everyone, everyone, I'm sorry, but because I'm going to have a billiards competition with the beautiful Ms. Tang from the Tang Group, I've booked the entire billiards room tonight. I'll treat everyone to a late-night snack later, everyone gets a share."
"Good, good." Everyone immediately clapped and cheered, and gathered around.
Wen Shao felt increasingly proud and confident, and with the support of the people, he smiled slightly at Tang Qianqian and said, "Beautiful Tang, you set the rules, you're in charge."
Tang Qianqian smiled and said, "I don't know, you decide!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Shao was visibly taken aback, only then realizing that this beautiful Tang seemed to know nothing about billiards. This made him even happier, thinking, "This is exactly the kind of newbie I want! Hahaha, you'll see tonight!" Without batting an eye, he said, "Then let's settle this with one game. How about ten million per game?"
"Huh? Ten million a game?" The crowd erupted in an uproar. Ten million? What kind of concept is that? For ordinary people, that's an astronomical figure! Especially for those working-class people, having money really makes a difference—they can do whatever they want!
Tang Qianqian remained unmoved and smiled. Wen Shao thought that Tang Qianqian was afraid to gamble, so he laughed and said, "If you're not afraid to gamble, five million a game is fine. Any less and it won't be interesting. Besides, in addition to the money, we need to add some other prizes."
Li Wei laughed and said, "Young Master Wen, are you very rich?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Shao flicked a strand of hair from his forehead, looking utterly smug, and laughed, "Well, I may have nothing, but I have plenty of money."
Li Wei glanced at Tang Qianqian, then smiled slightly and said, "That's true. As the heir of the prestigious Keyong Group, it would be a lie to say he has no money. How about this, since it's a one-shot deal, let's bet big."
Wen Shao asked, "How much to bet?"
Li Wei winked at Tang Qianqian, who smiled slightly and asked, "How much money do you and Young Master Qin have combined?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Shao asked in confusion, "What? You want to gamble all our possessions?"
Tang Qianqian smiled slightly and said, "What? You're afraid to gamble? Didn't you want a little something to wager? If you win, you can take the money, and any one of these girls can choose to spend the night with you..."
Tang Qianqian's words struck a chord with Wen Shao, who immediately replied with delight, "Okay."
Tang Qianqian rolled her eyes at Wen Shao and said, "What's the rush? I haven't finished yet! If we win, we'll take the bet money, and you two will have to take off all your clothes in front of everyone and do a striptease on this table."
Upon hearing this, Wen Shao didn't think much of it and immediately replied, "Okay, no problem."
Li Wei laughed and said, "Young Master Wen, why don't you two discuss how much money you have? As for us, with President Tang here, I think you don't need to worry about money!"
Wen Shao smiled slightly, then put his arm around Qin Shao's neck. The two turned around and discussed it. After a moment, they turned around at the same time. Wen Shao smiled and said, "Miss Tang, we've discussed it. Although we don't have much money on us, we can still come up with a mere 80 million."
Tang Qianqian nodded and said, "Then it's 80 million per game."
"Hiss!" A collective gasp rippled through the crowd. Ten million a game was already beyond their wildest imaginations, but now it was eighty million! The rich were truly rich, so extravagant, treating money with utter disregard. It seemed these wealthy young masters and ladies treated money like a tissue, wiped clean and then tossed aside. Many in the crowd sighed inwardly, lamenting the unfairness of fate. Why was there such a vast difference in wealth between people? Why weren't they born into a rich family? Why were they destined for hardship and toil? And toil and toil were bad enough; after a month of painstaking work, all they earned was a pitiful wage. Ah! It was truly infuriating to compare oneself to others!
Wen Shao didn't think much of it. After all, he was extremely confident in his billiards skills. He believed that no one among them could beat him in billiards. Since they were willing to bet so much, he might as well do it! Besides, which of these girls wasn't the one he wanted? Just thinking about spending the night with any one of these girls made Wen Shao's mind wander. Even Qin Shao was secretly pleased with himself.
Seeing the other person's lustful expression, Tang Qianqian slightly raised her lips and said in a cold voice, "Give me a straight answer, are you in or not?"
