273: Chapter 273 Look at my eyes
Hearing Su Cha actually dare to ask if he wanted to raise the stakes, Atapong was momentarily stunned before a surge of offended rage, mixed with even more contempt, welled up in his heart.
This piece of trash actually dares to challenge me?
Seeing this, his wife Nala quickly tugged at his sleeve under the table, signaling him with her eyes: Five hundred thousand in cash is already a lot; quit while you're ahead!
What if... Atapong glared fiercely at his wife, scolding her back with his eyes.
Get lost! Don't get in my way!
Today, he was determined to utterly crush this reckless fool, Su Cha!
He had absolute confidence in his hand, which looked like three Queens!
How could he pass up such a great opportunity to both make a fortune and completely humiliate his opponent?
He gnashed his teeth inwardly.
Su Cha, you dog, I gave you face and you threw it back at me. You still dare to challenge me?
If I don't win until you don't even have your underwear left today, I'll take your last name!
Atapong's father, Songphong, looked at his nephew Su Cha with a vicious expression.
"You little brat! You've really lost it! Who do you think you are, acting so arrogant with your Older Male Cousin?! Do you still consider him your elder?! Do you still consider him your relative?! Hurry up and take back the stakes, apologize, and we'll call it even!"
Hearing his Second Uncle Songphong's hypocritical words that completely twisted the truth, Su Cha felt a surge of blood rush to his head, and a wave of nausea welled up.
Atapong deserved to be called his elder?
A dog like him, who deliberately plotted against him, humiliated his father, and couldn't wait to bleed his family dry, even dared to mention the word 'relative'?
Atapong clearly didn't treat them as relatives, so why should he treat Atapong like a human being?
He couldn't hold back any longer and suddenly turned to look at Songphong.
He questioned loudly, his voice slightly hoarse with excitement:
"And what if I say no??? What are you going to do about it?!"
Songphong was stunned by Su Cha's blunt defiance, then flew into a rage!
This little beast actually dared to speak to him like that?
It was simply outrageous!
"You... you little brat! You still dare to say no? You've really lost it!!"
He was trembling all over with anger, and the finger he pointed at Su Cha was shaking.
"Hurry! Take back the stakes! We're not playing anymore! Do you hear me!"
As he spoke, he actually reached out, trying to snatch the property deed across the table!
In his eyes, this was an elder correcting a junior's mistake, which was only natural and right.
Seeing Songphong actually trying to snatch the property deed, Su Cha's eyes turned red!
Quick as a flash, he grabbed Songphong's reaching wrist and gripped it tightly, his strength making Songphong cry out in pain.
Su Cha glared at Songphong, his eyes bloodshot, and roared, "Stop! Did I say you could touch it?!!"
Songphong's wrist was in pain, and he was both shocked and furious. He tried desperately to break free, only to find that Su Cha's strength was unexpectedly great.
"You... you... you little beast! Let go of me right now!"
Instead of letting go, Su Cha gripped even tighter. He stared at Songphong's face, which was twisted with anger and pain. The nausea and rage in his heart reached a peak, and he let out a cold laugh.
"You think you're worthy of being my Second Uncle? Huh? Every other word out of your mouth is 'little beast' or 'brat.' Can't you say anything human?! You call yourself an elder?! You're just a dog that can't spit out ivory!"
He grew angrier as he spoke, his voice rising higher and higher.
"When your son was forcing my dad's head down to make him toast, why didn't you say anything? When your son was calling our whole family useless, why didn't you step in to discipline him?"
"Now that you see me betting the house, you jump out to play the good guy? Ptooey! Hypocrite! Disgusting!"
With that, he gave a violent shove, sending Songphong stumbling back several steps, nearly falling on his backside.
Songphong was left in a sorry state. Once he regained his balance, his face felt hot with shame. To be insulted and even shoved by a junior in front of so many relatives and neighbors—he had never been so humiliated in his life!
Extreme anger and shame made him lose his mind, and he flew into a rage.
"You motherf*cker! You actually dare to talk to me like that? You..."
Su Cha cut off his roar directly, meeting his gaze without flinching.
"So what? You said I was good-for-nothing and that my dad was incompetent! Today, I'm going to slap both your faces!!"
Su Cha's merciless rebuke and resistance instantly ignited the long-suppressed dissatisfaction in the hearts of many onlookers.
"Good! Well said!!"
"The father has been a pushover his whole life, but thank goodness the son has some backbone! This is a good way to stand up for himself!"
"Exactly! The father is so f*cking useless! He was the one who forced his son to play cards just now, and now that the son is playing big, he's over there whining and nearly getting people killed! If I were Su Cha, I'd be annoyed too!"
"That's right! Wenchalong just doesn't understand that kind people get bullied and gentle horses get ridden! It's a good thing Su Cha and his wife are tough!"
"That was so satisfying to watch! Someone should have stood up to Songphong and Atapong a long time ago! So what if they have a little money? They think they're better than everyone else!"
"Seeing Wenchalong reminds me of how my family used to be... getting bullied by relatives like this, and my dad wouldn't dare say a word. Sigh..."
Of course, there were also different voices.
"Isn't Su Cha taking it too far? He's still an elder, after all. How can he speak like that?"
"Exactly, it's so disrespectful! I think he's bound to lose, and he deserves it!"
"Gambler's mentality—he's lost his head and doesn't care about family anymore!"
Seeing his father so humiliated and shoved by Su Cha, and hearing the surrounding discussions supporting Su Cha and belittling them, a wave of wicked anger surged in Atapong's heart.
He was stunned; he hadn't expected Su Cha, whom he had always seen as a pushover he could manipulate at will, to dare to be so crazy and reckless today!
He glared at Su Cha with venomous hatred; if looks could kill, Su Cha would have already been sliced into a thousand pieces.
Su Cha glared back without fear, the fire in his eyes even more scorching than Atapong's.
Atapong's teeth chattered with rage. Fine, fine, fine! Su Cha, you dog, I gave you face and you didn't want it. If I don't win until you're bankrupt today, I'm not a man!
Seeing Atapong looking like he wanted to devour him, the anger and determination in Su Cha's heart reached a peak. He stopped wasting words and slammed his hand on the table with all his might!
"Bang!!!"
The deafening sound made everyone's heart skip a beat.
Su Cha leaned forward, almost crossing the table, and stared intently into Atapong's eyes.
"Look at my eyes!!!"
Then, with all his strength, he roared out the final ultimatum:
"Answer me!!! Are you in or out?! Give! Me! An! Answer!"
The entire courtyard instantly fell silent.
Every gaze was focused on the two young men at opposite ends of the card table, glaring at each other as if they might pounce and bite at any moment.
The air froze, leaving only the sound of heavy breathing and rapid heartbeats.
