Rebirth of the Best Businesswoman at School Novel - Chapter 249

Chapter 249: Do Not Judge a Book By Its Cover

2-2-4!

Apart from 2-2-3, this combination of cards was the smallest.

Everyone was shocked. They stared at the cards for a long time before recovering.

“She dared to follow with five million yuan in a one-on-two match?”

“You really can’t judge a book by its cover. You’ve underestimated this girl.”

“Haha, interesting. Who would have thought that everyone would be intimidated by a little girl…”

Yes, no one would have thought that Jian Ai, a young girl who looked like she was only in her teens, would play mind games with these casino veterans. The funny thing was that she had fooled everyone.

Just this one time, everyone knew that they should not underestimate the girl in front of them. That young face and her tender age were both good camouflage weapons. She even had an advantage over everyone present.

That noble lady felt a lump of blood in her throat. It wasn’t because she cared about a few million yuan worth of chips, but because she suddenly realized that she had made two mistakes that she shouldn’t have made in the casino.

The first was to judge a book by its cover.

The second was to be full of herself.

More than thirty million yuan was easily won in one game. This was more than the amount won with a Leopard in Sic Bo.

Jian Ai smiled sweetly, and there was no other expression on her face.

The others, however, had different expressions. Ji Haoyu looked at the indifferent Jian Ai. The interest in his eyes grew even stronger, and the smile on his lips subconsciously widened.

Only Bai Zhou knew that even if the noble lady didn’t fold her cards, the final winner would still be the Sect Master. Because the Sect Master only needed to move a finger to turn the 2-2-4 in her hand into 2-3-4. Thus, no matter what, the result would be the same.

To Bai Zhou, the noble lady’s action of stopping the damage in time was extremely wise!

The gambling table started operating again. Everyone picked up their cards. Jian Ai saw everyone’s cards at the first moment.

No one knew that in this gamble, everyone was playing their cards openly when facing Jian Ai.

However, in this round, when Jian Ai looked at everyone’s cards, although her expression did not change, she knew that this round was going to be interesting.

“Fold!”

Three players consecutively folded their cards, while the rest of the players who did not fold their cards were sizing each other up, trying to predict the combination of their cards through their facial expressions.

“One million yuan!” Ji Haoyu was the first to raise the bid. His fair and slender fingers picked up two chips worth five hundred thousand yuan each and threw them in.

“Follow with a million yuan!”

“I’ll follow with a million yuan too!”

None of the seven players opened their cards, and they all followed with a million yuan.

In the blink of an eye, there was thirty-seven million yuan worth of chips in the pool.

Ji Haoyu’s expression was as usual. He placed three cards on the gambling table in front of him and casually threw in another million yuan worth of chips. “I’ll follow again!”

“I’ll follow with a million a yuan again!”

“Follow with a million yuan!”

When it was Jian Ai’s turn, Jian Ai raised her eyes and looked at everyone indifferently. Then, she calmly picked up four chips and threw them in. “I’ll add one million yuan!”

As soon as Jian Ai finished speaking, the minimum bet was increased to two million yuan. In other words, the people behind Jian Ai could not follow with a bet lower than two million yuan. If they wanted to see other player’s cards, they had to throw in double the chips!

The person on Jian Ai’s right was a Japanese. He had a pair of aces and a Q in his hands, which was already a good combination. He hesitated for a moment before throwing four chips in. “Follow with two million yuan!”

Next was the noble lady.

In the previous round, she had the best combination of cards, but she lost to Jian Ai. Thirty million yuan was gone just like that.
