Chapter 126 - 126 Miss, Are You Too Confident?

126 Miss, Are You Too Confident?
The group of people from Pomegranate Village, led by Ji Shi, left in a hurry.
In the Shen residence.
Ji Zhao found an excuse and left.
“I’m afraid Ah Tao is very sad inside.” Zhao Lanhua sighed with heartache. “I’ve heard that Ah Tao’s life in the Ji family was not easy. It’s just that Madam Xie knows how to act, so no one has realized Ah Tao’s difficulties.”
“That’s right.” Second Sister-in-law Shen nodded in agreement as she bit into the melon. “Mother, then we have to treat Ah Tao better.”
“Alright, we’ll make another beautiful dress for Ah Tao in the next few days.”
“I think it’ll work!”
On the other side, Ji Zhao went straight to the county city. After asking around, she finally found out about the gambling den Ji Huai liked to go to.
Octagonal Guests.
Ji Zhao stared at the plaque thoughtfully.
Fifteen minutes later, Ji Zhao, who had changed into a male outfit, sneaked into the gambling den.
Octagonal Guests was the largest gambling den in Dingyuan County, so the gambling den was very lively.
Nowadays, the most common gambling methods were Pai Gow and dice.
Ji Zhao thought for a moment and took out a tael of silver from her pocket, placing it on the canvas with small words written on it.
One tael, two taels, ten taels, fifty taels, a hundred taels, five hundred taels…
Ji Zhao had bet six rounds in a row, and each time, he had bet on the small.
As she was extremely lucky, the pile of silver in front of her increased.
The banker didn’t expect Ji Zhao’s luck to be so good. However, no matter how he tampered with it, the dice seemed to be possessed. They always landed on the small numbers.
Seeing that more and more people were watching, Ji Zhao became more and more calm.
In the end, she withdrew all the silver and placed it on the ‘small’ word.
“Ouch! My stomach suddenly feels uncomfortable…” The banker suddenly cried out in pain. Then, he threw down the dice and turned to run—
Ji Zhao’s lips curled up silently. She raised her hand and slammed the gambling table hard. “Why? Octagonal Guests is such a big gambling den, but you can’t afford to lose?”
Once she said that, the noisy hall instantly fell silent.
The atmosphere gradually became strange.
Many thugs with unfriendly expressions gathered around.
After receiving the news, the manager walked up to Ji Zhao with a smile. “Sir, my boss wants to see you.”
Ji Zhao, who had achieved her goal, smiled. She raised her hand and put all the silver pieces into her pocket. Then, she followed the manager to the second floor of the gambling house.
The furnishings on the second floor of the gambling den were worlds apart from those on the first floor. After passing through a long bamboo corridor, the largest private room of the casino was at the end.
Ji Zhao walked in openly, and the first thing she saw was a dark red figure.
The man in red had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. His hair was tied up with a jade crown and he was holding his sleeve while pouring tea.
“Miss, you don’t look familiar. You don’t look like a regular at the gambling den?” Qin Minghong slowly looked up, and a trace of surprise quickly flashed across his eyes.
He did not expect such a beauty to be hidden in such a small Dingyuan County.
“Today is my first time visiting.” Ji Zhao smiled honestly.
“Miss, you’re quite lucky,” Qin Minghong commented.
“A bit.”
Ji Zhao crossed her arms and stood opposite him. She raised her eyebrows and said, “Since you can already tell that I’m a woman disguised as a man, I won’t beat around the bush. I’m not here today to cause trouble.”
“I want to ask the gambling den for a favor.”
“Miss, are you so sure that Octagonal Guests will agree to your request?” Qin Minghong, whose interest had been aroused, suddenly said, “Miss, aren’t you too confident?”
