531: The Gambling King Conference begins

After all, Qin Wei’s statement was practically the standard template for a villain!

It was as if he had ‘I am a villain’ written all over his Face!

“Remember, after you kill him, you must cremate him, dig three feet deep, and not even spare the earthworms three feet underground!”

“I’ll be watching you. If you miss even one step of what I just said, your entire family will be executed!”

Su Xuan said.

Upon hearing this, Qin Wei immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Was it really necessary to go to such great lengths just to deal with Feng Chen?

However, Su Xuan had already given a death order, so even if Qin Wei had any dissatisfaction, he dared not say anything more.

“Yes, Sir! I guarantee the mission will be completed!”

Qin Wei said fearfully.

Seeing Qin Wei like this, Su Xuan immediately nodded. Judging by Qin Wei’s appearance, he should be able to complete the mission.

Late at night, on the glazed tiles of “Jujinfang”.

This gambling house, nestled in the heart of the city, was brightly lit tonight, with red silk draped around pillars and gold paint adorning beams. Even the air carried a luxurious scent, a mixture of wine, perfume, and the smell of copper coins.

Jujinfang was naturally the name of the Tan Family’s gambling house, only it was much more Advanced than the previous one.

Qin Wei stood before the carved gate tower, his fingertips caressing the jade pendant at his waist, a sinister smile flashing in his eyes as he watched the figure slowly approaching in the distance.

“Brother Feng, I’ve been waiting for you!”

Qin Wei quickly went to greet him, a smile on his Face.

“Why are you so late today! This Gambling King Tournament would be meaningless without you!”

Qin Wei had a fake smile, his attitude extremely obsequious.

Feng Chen wore a faded blue cloth long gown with frayed cuffs, looking out of place among the richly dressed crowd.

Not only that, but he also had several lipstick marks and two dark circles under his eyes, looking utterly haggard.

During this period, he had been enjoying himself in the Brothel, living a shameless life every day, and almost forgot about this Gambling King Tournament.

This was a great opportunity for him to make a name for himself and return to his Peak, so Feng Chen naturally wouldn’t miss it!

Most importantly, the Lin Family had also come. He wanted to show the Lin Family how he, Feng Chen, would break through the encirclement!

However, because the time was moved up by a day, he hadn't rested well, which left him feeling a bit tired.

But it didn't matter. He could feel that his mindset today was exceptionally good, just like the last time he won money!

“It’s a sure win!”

Feng Chen thought to himself.

He had already fantasized about the moment he would make a name for himself and overpower all others.

“With Boss Tan’s personal invitation, how could I not come!”

Feng Chen smiled slightly.

“Follow me!”

Qin Wei showed a professional fake smile.

Soon, Feng Chen followed Qin Wei through the bustling hall, his gaze sweeping over Faces that were either shrewd or arrogant, a faint unease rising in his heart.

He had been to Jujinfang several times, but he had never seen such a grand display. Every gambling table was surrounded by people, and all of them looked elegantly dressed.

“Brother Feng, this way please!”

Qin Wei led him to the innermost private room. The zitan wood gambling table was as smooth as a mirror, covered with thick velvet, and seven or eight people were already seated around it.

The elderly man in the main seat, with white hair and beard, was Lin Henian, the helmsman of the Lin Family. He didn’t even lift his eyelids, his fingertips twirling two jade dice, producing a crisp clinking sound.

To his left sat a young Young Master dressed in a brocade robe, a smile playing on his lips. He sized up Feng Chen, as if looking at a curious new toy.

Several uncles from the Tan Family had solemn expressions, their gazes occasionally glancing at Qin Wei, clearly having received instructions long ago.

“Feng Chen, why are you here?”

Lin Henian lifted his eyelids. He thought some distinguished guest had arrived, but wasn't this his deceased son-in-law?

In his impression, Feng Chen was once a refined Young Master, but after becoming addicted to gambling, he completely degenerated.

Because of this, he even announced that he had severed ties with Feng Chen, which almost led to a falling out with his own daughter.

If Lin Qingyue hadn't always protected Feng Chen, he would have long ago ordered someone to beat Feng Chen to death.

The moment he saw Lin Henian, Feng Chen was initially a bit flustered, after all, Lin Henian had previously said he would break his dog legs.

However, he quickly thought, what was his status now! He was at least a distinguished guest, what was there to fear?

Besides, wasn't Qin Wei still here? And so many powerful figures, no matter what, Lin Henian wouldn't break his dog legs in public, would he?

“Father-in-law! Long time no see!”

Feng Chen said neither obsequiously nor arrogantly.

“Heh heh, haven’t seen you in a while, Youngster, have you gotten your act together?”

Lin Henian said with disdain. In the past, Feng Chen would act like a grandson when he saw him, but now that he had won some money, he was acting like a big shot again?

If it weren't for giving the Tan Family Face, he would have gone up and taught Feng Chen a lesson.

“Father-in-law is joking! One should look at a scholar with new eyes after three days. I am no longer the Feng Chen of the past!”

Feng Chen said with a confident expression.

Such confidence actually made Lin Henian look at him with new eyes; at least he wasn't decadent (depressed/decadent) anymore!

Moreover, Feng Chen’s luck seemed pretty good; he had been winning money. Although he didn’t know why he could keep winning, Lin Henian’s purpose in coming here today was to give Feng Chen one last chance.

If Feng Chen won money today, or lost almost all of it, he would step in to stop Feng Chen and let him take the remaining money to live a good life with Lin Qingyue.

“If you had this mindset earlier, you wouldn’t be in this situation now!”

Lin Henian sighed, but did not voice this thought.

“Alright, Brother Feng, play to your heart’s content! Today’s Gambling King Tournament has only one rule: within one hour, whoever wins 200,000 taels of silver can enter the final stage!”

“I’ll be waiting for you in the final stage!”

Qin Wei patted Feng Chen’s shoulder with satisfaction.

Hearing Qin Wei say this, Feng Chen happily walked towards a dice-rolling gambling table.

Last time, he had dominated here, and this time, he wanted to replicate his previous miracle.

Seeing Feng Chen like this, Lin Henian also turned his gaze, but was stopped by Qin Wei.

“Uncle Lin, this way please. A few of my uncles have something they want to say to you!”

Qin Wei said with a smile.

It wasn’t that he wanted to harm Lin Henian, but he saw Lin Henian’s attitude and knew he might try to stop him!

Su Xuan had said before that he couldn’t lay a hand on the Lin Family members. The reason he pulled Lin Henian over was merely to use him as a tool.

“Alright!”

Lin Henian, upon hearing this, had no choice but to follow.

On the other side, Feng Chen had already arrived at the gambling table. When the people around saw Feng Chen arrive, they involuntarily made way for him.

Seeing this scene, Feng Chen immediately felt a bit smug. When did he become so impressive?
