429: Chapter 428: Xiao Jianming Takes Action 429: Chapter 428: Xiao Jianming Takes Action “It’s over, it’s over, the dragon eye has appeared, we’re completely done!”
Upon seeing the dragon eye emerge, Lan Haishan shrunk behind Lan Kexin like a turtle retracting into its shell, as a regular at this casino, Lan Haishan knew just how ruthless dragon eye was.
Dragon eye was a well-known brutal figure here, and for those who were defaulters or troublemakers that caused dragon eye to be called out, their fate was absolutely miserable.
Broken hands and legs were just minor punishments; dragon eye’s favorite thing was to torture a person so much that they wished they were dead!
Having been consistently ignored by Ning Fan, dragon eye also harbored a blaze of anger within him, he raised his fist and struck towards Ning Fan’s face.
Shiiirak!
Just when everyone else thought that Ning Fan was as good as dead, a cold blade flashed past behind dragon eye, and dragon eye’s arm was directly chopped off.
“Aaaah!”
Dragon eye’s right shoulder was crazily spurting blood, he fell to the ground, his face ashen.
Lan Kexin instinctively closed her eyes, while others were stunned by Xiao Jianming’s unexpected action.
Wen Kuohai was dumbfounded; he stared blankly at Xiao Jianming retracting his blade, not yet realizing how serious the problem was.
Wen Kuohai knew of Xiao Jianming, a man known to dragon eye and even more formidable than dragon eye; seeing him there, Wen Kuohai had thought that Ning Fan was definitely doomed.
Relying on the “friendship” between dragon eye and Xiao Jianming, even if dragon eye couldn’t defeat Ning Fan in the end, with Xiao Jianming’s help, no accidents were supposed to happen.
But, an unexpected turn of events occurred prematurely, a direction Wen Kuohai had never anticipated; Xiao Jianming did make a move, but it wasn’t aimed at Ning Fan, it was against dragon eye.
Dragon eye was the one who could hardly believe it; he stared at Xiao Jianming, his eyes filled with questioning and even a hint of resentment.
“Why?!”
Dragon eye gritted his teeth and screamed out with the last of his strength.
In response to dragon eye’s questioning, Xiao Jianming’s expression was very cold; he looked down at dragon eye lying on the ground and indifferently replied, “You messed with the wrong person.”
The tone of stating the fact told everyone in the room that Ning Fan was not someone they could afford to provoke.
Dragon eye was stunned; he even forgot the pain for a few seconds, just staring blankly at Xiao Jianming.
Wen Kuohai also received a huge blow; he knew well who stood behind Xiao Jianming—Queen Huo Qiuran of Zhonghai, a person he couldn’t ingratiate himself with no matter what.
But now Xiao Jianming had told them they had provoked someone whom they could not afford to provoke, a sense of impending doom descended on them like Mount Tai, making it hard for them to breathe.
“It was my fault for being blind, it was my fault for being blind, please forgive me, please spare me!”
Wen Kuohai reacted quickly; right after Xiao Jianming finished his sentence, he immediately knelt in front of Ning Fan and began to beg for mercy.
Seeing their boss begging for mercy, the other henchmen also didn’t hesitate to kneel down and plead with Ning Fan.
Watching Wen Kuohai and his people beg Ning Fan for mercy, Lan Haishan’s eyes widened in shock!
All these people were ruthless characters, but now they were all kneeling and begging Ning Fan to spare them, a change that left Lan Haishan wondering if he was dreaming.
Lan Kexin was still fairly calm because she had seen Ning Fan’s capabilities a few times before.
Ning Fan glanced at Xiao Jianming and said, “Well then, let’s properly tally this account.”
Wen Kuohai lifted his head, looking at Ning Fan, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
“I originally just came to repay someone’s debt, the gambling game was your idea, and I won all three rounds …
”
“Yes, yes, yes, I know, we’ll erase Lan Haishan’s debt completely, and I will bring you the million I owe you right away!”
Before Ning Fan had even finished speaking, Wen Kuohai quickly interjected with the promise, not only writing off Lan Haishan’s debt but also agreeing to bring the money he had lost to Ning Fan immediately.
“Interrupting someone isn’t a good habit, and are you sure it’s just a million?”
Ning Fan looked dissatisfied at Wen Kuohai, who was stunned for a while, taking several seconds to understand the meaning behind Ning Fan’s words.
Wen Kuohai clenched his teeth, his face already covered in sweat like pouring rain.
“Two million?” Wen Kuohai tentatively asked.
“Hmm?” Ning Fan shook his head.
“Three million?”
Ning Fan still shook his head.
“Hiss!
Five million?!”
“Then let it be five million.”
After finally satisfying Ning Fan, Wen Kuohai felt all his strength leave him, his head drooping down in despair and desolation.
Wen Kuohai could afford five million, but it was still enough to hurt him for a good while.
However, compared to his life, the five million really wasn’t much; money can be earned again, but if life is gone, it’s completely over.
“No problem, it’s five million!” Wen Kuohai gritted his teeth, looking tearfully at Ning Fan.
“Now that the previous matter is settled, let’s talk about what just happened.”
“Wha, what just happened?”
What else is there?!
Wen Kuohai inhaled sharply, looking at Ning Fan with unease and turmoil.
“Thi, thi, thi…”
Wen Kuohai’s voice became halting again, his face growing even more panicked, as Ning Fan seemed unwilling to let him go.
“Let’s do this, you gamble with me.
If I lose, this matter is wiped clean, if you lose, you just leave your hands.”
Ning Fan said cheerily, as if making a joke.
But Ning Fan’s gaze was very cold; Wen Kuohai knew he was serious.
Having already witnessed Ning Fan’s gambling skills, how could Wen Kuohai dare to gamble with him?
Liu Yunzhen was the best cheater here, yet he turned pale in front of Ning Fan.
Although Wen Kuohai had some accomplishment in gambling, he knew well that he couldn’t possibly win against Ning Fan, he didn’t even dare to think about it.
“No, no, no, I couldn’t possibly gamble with you, please spare me!”
Wen Kuohai was very anxious; if possible, he really didn’t want to gamble with Ning Fan.
Ning Fan narrowed his eyes, his look turning dangerous: “Are you sure, you really don’t want to gamble?”
Gulp, Wen Kuohai instinctively swallowed, his forehead drenched in sweat, turning even more pale at the moment.
The assertiveness of Ning Fan made Wen Kuohai completely abandon resistance, and he ultimately could only nod in despair, agreeing to gamble with Ning Fan.
Seeing him finally nod, Ning Fan also smiled, he was never soft-hearted towards such people, and the outcome of this gambling round was already predetermined.
“Then, please take your seat at the table, I’m really looking forward to this gambling round.”
Like a sentence passed down, Wen Kuohai dropped his head like a convict before execution.
