Wealthy Chapter 230

Pushed by Lin Kang, Chen Ruhai took a few steps backwards and almost fell down the stairs, but luckily I pushed him from behind and caught him by the waist.

Chen Ruhai was too old and frightened to look back. He was leaning against the deck railing, gasping for breath and in shock, when Lin Kang was shouting at him again to hurry up and follow.

“Old Uncle Chen, you really have to keep up, there’s a big event tonight, the God of Gambling Competition, we won’t get in if we’re late.”

Chen Ruhai was too old to have ever suffered such a thing, so he said to Lin Kang, “Xiao Kang, Uncle Lin, I’m not feeling well, you go first, I’ll come over later.”

“Later? Who’s going to pay for me if you don’t come?”

“Pay for what?” Chen Ruhai asked, seasick and unable to react in his head for a moment.

Lin Kang said with a matter-of-fact look on his face, “The gambling capital for the King of Gamblers tournament.”

“You, you want me to lend you money to go gambling?”

Chen Ruhai was afraid that he could never have imagined that Lin Kang could be so shameless and rogue as to say such shameless words as a matter of course.

“That’s not it. You’re investing, we’ll split the winnings, you’ll get seven and I’ll get three, I’m generous enough.”

“Well, what if you lose? What are you going to pay back?”

“Investment. You’re a businessman, you don’t know what investment means, do you? It’s risky.”

Even if Chen Ruhai had seen a lot, he was still shocked by Lin Kang’s shameless mouth.

“You want me to bet you with money? There is not a single gambler in our Chen family tree. You want me to take money to gamble for you?!”

Lin Kang’s face gradually darkened, not having that patience anymore, he took a step back and said with a cold face, “Old thing, don’t give shame. There are no gambling demons in your Chen family, but you have done a lot of other treacherous deeds, right?”

Chen Ruhai could not speak at once, as if he had been pinched by Lin Kang’s lifeline.

“Don’t worry, I just want money, give me money and I will obediently keep the secret for you, you can consider it as a confidentiality fee.”

Chen Ruhai’s face was ashen and he could only say, “I’ll pay, you shut up.”

“Attend quickly, don’t always wait for me to tell you before you pay out. You have a lot of money, but you only have one son.”

“Lin Kang.” Chen Ruhai suddenly called out to him, glancing around.

I was hiding in the corner, neither of them saw me, and the rest of them were in a hurry to get to the casino and had no time to pay attention to them.

Chen Ruhai said, “That incident, does anyone else know about it apart from you?”

“Then of course not, the matter is known to heaven and earth and you and I. Old man, pay well, consider it as buying your son’s life.”

Chen Ruhai nodded in the darkness, and Lin Kang, absorbed in the joy of blackmailing the big players, ran cheerfully towards the casino.

Chen Ruhai followed him as if he were a pony, and I followed them from a distance; the casino was very crowded, and I wore my hat so that these two men could not notice me.

As Lin Kang walked along, there were people looking at him with immense surprise the whole way, because there were few people in Tongcheng who didn’t know Chen Ruhai.

Chen Ruhai was the guest of honour everywhere he went, everyone would give him some face, this man, who was well known in both the black and white worlds, was now a follower of a little brat!

Lin Kang was hunched over, but at this moment he could not wait to turn his chin up to the sky.

He had been to the casino so many times, and most of the time he was like a dog in distress, being whisked around, when had he ever been in the limelight like he was now?

I found a quiet corner and ordered a drink and sat down, the casino had not yet opened and the ship was heading for the high seas, it was only after it sailed there that the place would begin to serve his true purpose.

The tables are now set up, but people are still sitting in groups and drinking. There are many rich people who love to talk business and find partners on such occasions.

Lin Kang had just sat down when a tall man with a big back haircut, looking as if he was Chow Yun Fat from the God of Gamblers, walked towards him from the stairs.

“Boss He ……” Lin Kang immediately panicked a little because he still owed Boss He money, but Boss He was all smiles and did not look like he was coming to seek a debt, and it was then that Lin Kang remembered that all his debts had been carried by Chen Ruhai.

“Little brother Lin, it’s been a long time, you’re here today, you must have had a good hand and good luck lately, win some more tonight. You’re free to come and play too? The sun has come out from the west. Who doesn’t know that the Chen family’s motto is no drugs, no gambling, so since we’re here today, let’s have fun and have long-lasting gambling luck.”

Chen Ruhai didn’t say anything, with his status, he didn’t have to necessarily give Boss He face. This Boss He was also a human being, when he saw Chen Ruhai like this, he sensed that something was wrong, his eyes wandered around Chen Ruhai and Lin Kang’s body, and at once he seemed to understand what was going on.

“Gentlemen, welcome to the luxury cruise ship Centaurus, we are now sailing at full speed to the high seas. Tonight, in the large event hall on the third floor of the yacht will be held our first God of Gambling Competition in Tong City. The details of the tournament will be announced later, so I wish you all good luck in gambling tonight, and all of you win a lot of money!”

The crowd erupted in a gasp of surprise, as Boss He’s few words had stirred up the excitement of the gamblers.

Boss He stretched out his hands and pressed them down, gesturing for everyone to be quiet and listen to his words.

“The prizes for tonight’s God of Gambling competition are huge, wow, I’m drooling just looking at them. Of course, I will play a few hands with you all later, it’s just that I, He, am not a good poker player, so all you gambling gods give me a break.”

The man surnamed He was quite good at reviving the atmosphere, and within a few words, he had already fired up the atmosphere, and everyone was impatient for Mr He to introduce the prizes to them.

I wasn’t interested in any of this, so I didn’t concentrate on listening, drinking my wine for a while, and while listening, I sent a WeChat to Chu Xiaoxiao to live-stream what was happening here.

Mr. He said, “The first prize, as you know very well, is one million dollars in cash, and the winner takes it directly. We don’t do all that, we just play for real. But in addition to the first prize, I’ve added a special prize that may not be worth much to some people, but to me it’s worth a world of money.”

He clapped his hands and two attendants carried out a huge picture frame covered with a white cloth.

The crowd held their breath and looked towards the canvas, debating what it was.

I took a quick glance at the painting and lost interest.

The value of artworks is the most watery, and how much they are worth depends on hype. It’s not like Boss He could really get a world-famous painting as a prize, and if he could, I don’t think he would want to.
