C1 Bet on a Pair of Hands

Seven Star Pavilion.

The antique decorations were low-key and unique, bright and spacious. The unique design allowed the guests to see what was happening in the hall no matter where they were.

At this moment, the gazes of the guests fell onto the hall in unison.

In the middle of the hall, there was a long round gambling table. On top of the table, there was a huge glass lamp. The crystal clear mirror reflected a dazzling light, illuminating the entire Seven Star Pavilion.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

Her fair and slender fingers gently knocked on the armrest of the mahogany chair, making a deep sound in the silence.

"Crown Prince, this round... If you lose, then you will lose a total of 100,000 gold taels to me... Just a mere 100,000 gold taels. To His Highness, it is absolutely nothing. It was rumored that Crown Prince was the one who kept his promise the most. Under the eyes of everyone, he would definitely not go back on his word. Am I right?" A cold voice sounded at this moment.

The person who spoke wore a silver mask and a white brocade robe. His black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, wantonly scattering to the side. His posture was extremely languid, and his body seemed to have lost all its bones. She leaned against the back of the chair, and the peach blossom folding fan in her hand was adorned with a top-grade jade pendant. He kept shaking it in front of his chest. Even though the mask covered his face, it could not hide the noble aura that he was born with. That elegant and elegant appearance made many of the women present look infatuated.

This man was the famous Godly Doctor, Seventh Young Master. He was also the owner of the most mysterious casino in the entire capital, the Seven Star Pavilion, on the surface.

"A mere one hundred thousand gold taels is nothing to me. I dare to come and meet you today. There was nothing I couldn't afford to lose. However, the outcome is still uncertain. It was still too early for Seventh Young Master to be happy." Crown Prince Dongling Ruiyu said while gnashing his teeth in anger. His handsome face darkened. His eyes were burning with anger. He wished he could chop this shameless man into eight pieces. He no longer had the demeanor that a Crown Prince should have.

One hundred thousand gold taels. That was easy to say! Although he was the Crown Prince, how could he take out so much gold at once? Could it be that he had to go to the Imperial Palace to find Royal Father and ask for it? He was going to let Royal Father know that not only did he bet, he had also lost the bet. Then, he didn't need to be the Crown Prince anymore!

However, Seventh Young Master had offended him today. Even if he won the hundred thousand gold taels, he still didn't know if he would be able to spend it with his life! A ruthless look flashed across Dongling Ruiyu's eyes. He secretly clenched his fists. No matter what the outcome of today's bet was, this man in front of him would die for sure. He would never let go of this man who dared to humiliate him like this!

As if he didn't see Dongling Ruiyu's anger, Seventh Young Master gently smiled. He raised his hand and placed it on the gambling table. The rectangular cards looked familiar. They were betting on the cards that had recently become popular in the capital, which were modern poker cards.

The newest way of playing cards was popular three years ago. Because of the new stimulation, it was widely praised and became a popular gambling method in various big casinos. Coincidentally, the person who made the gambling method popular in the capital was Seventh Young Master.

Dongling Ruiyu suddenly revealed a sinister smile and also raised his hand. However, there was a card hidden at an angle that no one could see. His palm lightly slid across the gambling table and the trump card on it had been replaced.

Although his movement was fast, it couldn't escape Seventh Young Master's eyes. A cold light flashed in the eyes of the mask, and a strange sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Playing this kind of trick in front of her? What a joke! When she, Su Qiye, was doing well in Las Vegas, he, Dongling Ruiyu, probably had never even seen her play cards! Playing tricks with her, wasn't this showing off in front of an expert?

Of course, this was not the time to show off. She pretended not to know and casually flipped open the cards to take a look.

Behind her, a burning gaze was focused on the card in her hand.

Lightly pressing down, her nimble fingers casually played with her trump card, as if she did not care about winning or losing.

Seeing how confident she was, Dongling Ruiyu suddenly felt uncertain. Although he had already planned everything beforehand, he had a feeling that he had been seen through in front of Seventh Young Master. This feeling made him very anxious.

Su Qiye saw that he did not say anything for a long time and felt bored. She held her chin with one hand and tilted her head, saying, "Your Highness, we only bet gold and silver. It does not seem to be meaningful. How about we change the bet?"

Dongling Ruiyu coldly snorted and did not speak immediately. His eyes passed Su Qiye and landed behind her. It seemed that he had gotten the exact answer from somewhere. A light flashed in his eyes and he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

He did not know what had happened. At this moment, Dongling Ruiyu's gloomy face eased up a little. He pretended to be calm and said coldly, "I wonder how Seventh Young Master is going to bet? I am in a good mood today, so I will naturally accompany him. "

"If Your Highness wins, I will lose two hundred thousand gold taels to Your Highness. If Your Highness loses..." Su Qiye said slowly. Her eyes looked over Dongling Ruiyu and landed on the beautiful and dignified Su Hanyue behind him. Her fingertips lightly tapped. "I want Su Hanyue, Miss Su..."

Before she finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar.

Su Hanyue was the daughter of Prime Minister Su, as beautiful as a fairy. More importantly, she was the future Crown Princess, the woman Crown Prince loved the most! This Seventh Young Master was too bold. He actually dared to make such an outrageous request in front of everyone!

Su Hanyue obviously didn't expect that Seventh Young Master would like her. Immediately, she lowered her head shyly. Her face was slightly red, and she could not help but feel proud in her heart. However, this pride was also caused by her vanity. Even though this Seventh Young Master was a handsome man, there was no doubt that she would choose the noble Crown Prince. Because she was born with the goal of becoming the noblest woman in the world.

"Bang!"

The gambling table was violently slapped, and a hole appeared in it. Cracks began to appear on the surface of the table.

Dongling Ruiyu was furious. "How dare you! Seventh Young Master, you are really daring! Yue Er is my woman!"

" Your Highness, please calm down. I haven't finished yet. " Su Qiye sat as steady as Mount Tai and leaned against the back of the chair. She still had a calm and composed look but there was a trace of playfulness in her eyes, "I just said that I want that pair of jade bracelets on Miss Su's wrist."

What? Jade bracelets?

No one expected her to suddenly make such a request. Could a pair of bracelets be worth 100,000 gold taels?

"It's just a pair of jade bracelets. Take them if you want." Dongling Ruiyu heaved a sigh of relief and said without thinking.

However, the owner of the jade bracelets, Su Hanyue, suddenly stood up and shouted with a panicked expression. "Your Highness, no!"

Dongling Ruiyu turned his head and stared at her, his eyes full of haze. It was just a pair of jade bracelets, there were many in the Imperial Palace. She could ask for a few hundred. At such a critical moment, she actually dared to refuse?

Su Hanyue looked at her hands and revealed a helpless expression. She said softly and pitifully, "Your majesty... This jade bracelet was worn by my mother when I was young. She never took it off. After so many years, the jade bracelets are too small to take off. Unless you break the bracelet..."

Dongling Ruiyu looked closely and found that the bracelet was tightly attached to Su Hanyue's wrist. Unless it was broken, it was impossible to take it off.

Seeing that everyone's gaze fell on her once again, Su Qiye raised her eyebrows and lightly said, "Broken jade bracelet, I don't want..."

Dongling Ruiyu clearly realized that Su Qiye deliberately made things difficult for him and coldly asked, "Then what do you want?"

Su Qiye raised the corner of her lips and revealed a cold smile. The coldness in her eyes made everyone present unconsciously feel a chill in their hearts.

Her thin lips slightly parted and her voice was cold. "This is simple. If you cut off both of your hands, wouldn't you be able to take off the jade bracelet?"
