Now, as Bian Liang showed signs of taking the bait, the wealthy man immediately began to use provocation as a lure, preparing to make his final move before reeling him in.
As an observer, I had fully grasped the wealthy man's intentions and naturally wouldn't let him succeed.
So, I flashed out from the left side of Bian Liang's seat and said softly, "Two tigers cannot share one mountain. Since there's already a roadblock on this table, why not try another one?"
I didn't directly reveal the wealthy man's identity, mainly to avoid causing trouble.
After all, this trip was for business.
However, as soon as I finished speaking, I saw a look of extreme dissatisfaction flash across Bian Liang's face. He said coldly, "What I like to do most is to face challenges head-on! So..."
"Your time isn't up yet, can you stop interfering with my thoughts and decisions?"
Hearing Bian Liang's words, I immediately laughed.
But it was a knowing, cold laugh.
It seemed I had truly shot myself in the foot this time, finding such an unpleasant fellow!
Bian Liang, being so petty, likely saw how extremely polite and respectful I was to both Xu Shiyu and him during dinner.
So now, he was getting a bit too big for his britches!
Seeing my silent, cold smile, Bian Liang responded with a mocking grin and immediately said, "This is how I, Bian Liang, do things. If you're not happy, you don't have to find me!"
Frankly, before Bian Liang said this, my intention was to de-escalate and prioritize the bigger picture.
But after Bian Liang's words, I was instantly enraged.
However, before I could speak, Cheng Minglang on the side struck back first.
Cheng Minglang looked at Bian Liang and said angrily, "Why are you acting like a hammer just because we gave you a nail? Are we too easy to talk to, or are we giving you too much face?"
"The world will keep turning without anyone! In this world, there's no such thing as being indispensable!"
"You want to put on airs? Believe it or not, I'll slap you right across your face!"
Bian Liang was stunned by Cheng Minglang's barrage of words.
He seemed completely surprised that we were so assertive.
During dinner, the main topic I discussed was how much we would rely on him for the evening's operation.
Therefore, Bian Liang had subconsciously assumed that we couldn't do without him.
Unexpectedly, that wasn't the case.
Fortunately, although Cheng Minglang spoke in anger, considering the environment, his tone and volume weren't too high.
At least the wealthy man sitting diagonally opposite definitely couldn't hear these words.
Only a few gamblers gathered behind Bian Liang realized that we were a group from our conversation.
However, this did not affect the overall situation.
After being lectured by Cheng Minglang, Xu Shiyu, sitting next to Bian Liang, blushed and dared not speak.
As for Bian Liang himself, he stood there with a livid face, his eyes flickering as he thought about something...
Just then, the wealthy man, not having received a response from Bian Liang, seemed afraid his lure would fail and suddenly said to him, "Brother, are you playing or not?"
"If you don't dare to play, then hurry up and take your girl upstairs to a room to cool off!"
Bian Liang, already upset, immediately looked up and retorted loudly upon hearing the wealthy man's open mockery, "If you want to play, let's play, who's afraid of whom?"
After speaking, Bian Liang made a middle-finger gesture of provocation towards the wealthy man.
It was clear that after being provoked by Cheng Minglang's words, Bian Liang, knowing we were a three-person group, chose to vent his anger on the wealthy man.
It was a pity that this conceited idiot didn't realize that the other party had already set the net and cast the hook, waiting for him to walk right into it!
He couldn't even see the sleight of hand technique of "Sleeve-Hidden Universe Shuriken," so I knew without guessing that Bian Liang's fate would be miserable!
With this thought, I no longer paid attention to Bian Liang, whose reason had been consumed by anger, and sent a message to Xu Shiyu, asking her to leave with us.
Seeing me call Xu Shiyu away, Bian Liang's expression turned extremely grim in an instant.
He half-rose from his seat, and just as he was about to say something, the wealthy man immediately taunted him again, "Brother, if you're down in love, you can find it back in the casino!"
"As long as you have money, you can find any woman! Don't chase after her, or I'll look down on you!"
This wealthy man was a typical example of someone who enjoyed watching a fire.
Hearing this, Bian Liang, who had just stood up, froze again. He looked at Xu Shiyu's profile and said, "When I win back all the money I just lost, I'll come find you, Shiyu!"
"You go look around with Zhu Wenjing first!"
If Bian Liang's earlier exposed nature was arrogance, then after these words, one must add ignorance and stupidity.
It was evident that Xu Shiyu also sensed this.
This time, she didn't respond to him at all and simply followed me out of the VIP hall.
Judging by the expression on Xu Shiyu's face, her mood seemed a bit off.
Judging by her demeanor, she probably hadn't expected to bring out such a big idiot this time!
Upon arriving at the casino ship's main hall, as I hadn't received any notification from Shen Mengqing, I didn't lead everyone out.
Instead, I directly exchanged a chip worth ten thousand yuan with a waiter for the right to use two suites upstairs for one night.
In fact, I could have gotten two suites at the bar for less than five thousand yuan without wasting a ten-thousand-yuan chip.
But the extra five thousand yuan chip could buy a service not available at the bar.
A direct elevator!
The direct elevators on the Yunshuang gambling ship were for exclusive use.
If you weren't a gambler who had reached a certain turnover in the VIP hall, then sorry... you had to take the stairs to your room!
If you didn't want to take the stairs, you could only bribe the waiter with tips.
The service provided by the waiters was valuable because it could drive and create more value.
Just like now, Cheng Minglang, Han Jinlun, and I were already lying in a suite arranged by the waiter, which had a computer with internet access.
Xu Shiyu and Zhu Wenjing were also there!
This was the hidden value brought by the extra five thousand yuan chip!
