Cute But Brutal Wife
Chapter 117: The Bet
After putting down their luggage, the boy came to Chu Luo's side.
Chu Luo told them where the gaming equipment would be placed, and the waiter brought them dinner.
After eating, Tang Zhiyun said, “Sleep early if you are tired.”
With that, he left with another boy.
Chu Luo went to take a shower and came out. He was not sleepy, so he took his laptop and walked towards the balcony outside the bedroom.
The balcony is very classy. Not only flowers and grass, there were also swing chairs and lounge chairs.
There were even thin pillows and blankets carefully placed on the swing chair.
The temperature in XX City in the US was not high, and was only slightly more than ten degrees at night. Such a thin blanket was indeed necessary at this time.
Next to the thin blanket was a very short folding table that could fit a laptop.
Chu Luo was not interested in watching the night scene. He took off his shoes and sat down on the swinging chair. He placed his notebook on the folding table and logged into the game while appearing offline.
Unexpectedly, all the accounts of Tang Zhiyun and the others were also online but appeared offline. Looks like they haven't slept.
At this time, the whole “Battle of Lightyears” game is very lively. Everyone is discussing the next World Championship.
Chu Luo went to the World Forum to search for a while and realized that many people had placed betting posts. Each betting post is bet on a team. After seeing dozens of betting posts, he noticed that none of them had bet on their Legend“ ”Phoenix Skies team.
At that moment, there was a message. It was from Wang Mingtao. Since he was a friend, Wang Mingtao was able to see that Chu Luo had gone online.
[Evil Dragon Crossing the River]: “(Tsk tsk tsk....) Sister Chu, are you as excited as we are that you cannot sleep?”
[Wicked Dragon Crossing the River]: “Senior and others go to side account.”
[Wicked Dragon Crossing the River]: “Saudari Chu, do you want PK? Do you want us to form a team and PK for two rounds?
[Wicked Dragon Crossing the River]: “Saudari Chu. Sister Chu's Page. What are you doing?”
[Bai Ling]: “Have you seen the World Forum?”
[Wicked Dragon Crossing the River]: “No, the World Forum is filled with English words. It makes me dizzy.”
Chu Luo: “...”
[Bai Ling]: “I'll see the World Forum in a moment, don't bother me.”
After saying that, he exited the message window and continued to look at the betting forum posts.
Chu Luo realized that every banker had a big bet and many people made bets.
The more he looked at the post, the more unhappy he became. “Kony! Nobody bets that our team will win!”
After a while, he declared, “Hmph! Since there is no one else, I will bet myself!”
Chu Luo picked up her phone and checked her balance. When he saw her, he frowned.
“I only have a hundred thousand yuan?”
This hundred thousand yuan came from the moment Wei Wei asked him to leave the Wei residence. After that, he bought some furniture, and here's the rest of the money.
One hundred thousand yuan was definitely not enough. However, she had a jewelry bag.
Chu Luo wondered who could be a reliable person to help her sell jewelry. An idea flashed through his mind. He quickly searched for the number and played it using his new phone.
The phone rang several times before it was picked up. A polite voice came from the other end. “Halo, I'm Jin Hui. May I know who you are?”
Chu Luo replied, “I Chu Luo.”
When Jin Hui heard that it was Chu Luo, his tone immediately became warm. “So that's Master Chu. I wonder if Master Chu has moved to that residence. Have you moved that thing inside the villa?”
Chu Luo spoke to him about what happened at the residence before saying, “Master Jin, I hope to ask for your help.”
Jin Hui immediately said, “Master Chu, feel free to ask.”
Chu Luo said, “Like this. I want you to help me sell some gems.”
Jin Hui: “Emm..”
Chu Luo asked, “Can you not do that?”
Jin Hui: “No, no. I was just saying, Master Chu, rather than selling gems, why don't you draw some talismans for sale? They are much more valuable than gems.”
Only then did Chu Luo realize that in this world, the talismans sold by true masters were worth over a thousand precious gems.
Chu Luo immediately said, “OK, I will write some Fortune Enhancement Talismans and Safety Amulets and send them to you soon.”
Jin Hui was very excited. “Sure, sure. When did Master Chu want the money? Why don't I transfer 50 million yuan to you first? See if that's enough. If it's not enough, I'll transfer more to you. After the talisman is sold, you can return the money to me.”
Chu Luo replied, “Oke.”
After hanging up the phone, Chu Luo went to the bedroom, took out a few pieces of yellow paper, and wrote some talismans. Then, he asked Phoenix to move the talisman to Jin Hui.
In less than a minute, he received news of a successful transfer.
Chu Luo looked at the number on it and smiled. He goes to place a bet on the losing team at each betting post.
Then, he opened the betting thread.
[I bet on ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ getting first place]
The banker placed his bet: 40 million yuan.
There was an official betting channel on “Phoenix Skies Legend”, so Chu Luo did not have to worry about the next process. As long as the other party passed the review, the bet would be displayed immediately.
After Chu Luo placed her bet, she thought for a moment and sent a message to the [Wicked Dragon Crossing the River].
[Bai Ling]: “I opened a betting thread. Let the seniors know that you can place your bets.”
When Wang Mingtao saw Chu Luo's message, he did not even reply. He yelled at the others who were playing the game, “Sister Chu has made a thread to bet that our ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ will get first place. Everyone, quick, place your bet.”
The others, who played fiercely, no longer cared about their opponents. They activate the automatic mode and enter the World Forum betting zone.
Coincidentally, the thread Chu Luo had filed had just been released.
“Wow! Sister Chu is generous. He actually bet.” Wang Mingtao leaned on the computer and used his hand to calculate the zeros behind the numbers. “One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight! Sister Chu actually bet 40 million yuan!”
Xie Minghai concluded, “ Junior Sister is indeed a rich woman!”
Xu Qingfeng also secretly took out his phone to check how much money was on his card.
Without hesitation, Tang Zhiyun placed his bet.
He said, “I also thought we would win, so I put all my money into it.”
Xie Minghai stuck out his neck to look and clicked his tongue. “Bos, will you not leave money for your living expenses?”
Tang Zhiyun said without hesitation, “No, I believe we can win.”
Xie Minghai replied, “Alright, I will follow in your footsteps, Boss. I'll risk everything on our team.”
Yu Lei: “I also bet.”
Xu Qingfeng transferred all the money in his cards.
Wang Mingtao was even more direct. He took his cell phone and called his father. So Mr. Wang picked up the phone, he told her about it.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Wang was straightforward. “Bet! Definitely! Wait, I'll transfer five million yuan to you.”
Then he hung up.
Wang Mingtao looked at the closed call and muttered to himself in disbelief, “When my parents became so straightforward!”
Chu Luo looked at the stakes and smiled.
[Bai Ling]: “I will make you get back tens of times more than you bet.”
The moment Chu Luo posted this betting thread, it instantly caused a sensation on the Internet.
“Think that someone will bet so much on the ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ win. I'll bet on their losses just for this bet.”
Everyone who sees this thread betting on “Phoenix Skies Legend” loses with the same thought.
In less than half an hour, this post was pushed to eighth place on trending forums.
Once the post is uploaded to the trending list of topics, more and more people are viewing it.
On one of the participating teams:
“Pfft! This post must have been opened by a member of the team ‘Phoenix Skies Legend.’ If they want to win, we'll tell them what it's like to lose. Bet on their losses with everything you have.”
“If you want to bet, bet more. Even if we can't earn a lot of money after dividing the winnings in the end, it's worth giving them a lesson.”
“Accurate once. We want that person to see that other than him, no one else in the Empire can match us.”
“I'll bet five million yuan.”
“I'll bet six million yuan.”
There are a few teams like that.
20 Minutes later, the bet rises to third place on the trend list.
The merchants who had been staring at the thread also noticed it.
Traders think a lot.
“It is clear that ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ will lose. If everyone were to bet on their losses, we wouldn't be able to get much. Forget, forget. We will not join them.”
However, once this thought appeared, a piece of world news suddenly exploded.
Before the news spread, there was a sound of gold coins entering one's pocket.
Everyone subconsciously held their breath, as everyone knew that the appearance of this sound proved that the super big blow had placed a bet.
World News:
[Anonymous person placed a bet of two billion yuan for the victory of ‘Legenda Sky Phoenix.’]
The world suddenly became very quiet.
Everyone sitting in front of the computer left their mouths wide open and their eyes wide open in shock.
The traders were the first to react.
“Quick, place your bet!”
“Because someone gave us money for free, we are stupid to miss that opportunity!”
“It looks like there is rich sugar daddy supporting ‘Phoenix Skies Legend.’ This proves that [Bai Ling] is a big player who is ranked in the top ten of the world.”
“It's impossible. I checked. The people who were ranked second to tenth had no record of communication with the Empire. There were no people or managers around. It shouldn't be.”
“Because none of them, moreover the elusive God Y is impossible!”
“So someone deliberately tried to mess with our vision.”
“Check the IP address of the person who placed the bet immediately.”
“I can't find anything. A hacker immediately checked his IP. This guy is clearly an online expert. Its anti-detection ability is too outstanding.”
“Then, I'll play a little more.”
Later then…
Tens of millions bet on the loss of “Phoenix Skies Legend” stream in.
The boy in the next room could not sit still anymore and rushed to Chu Luo's side.
They stared at his laptop, their mouths forming an O shape.
After a while.
Xie Minghai patted his thumping heart and took a deep breath several times before saying, “God! Who exactly is the big hotshot who placed a bet of two billion yuan for us?”
Tang Zhiyun clenched his fists. “Two billion yuan too tempting. It hasn't even been two hours, and there are already over three billion yuan at stake for our losses!”
Yu Lei suddenly jumped up and down and swore with his fists. “Because so many people bet on us losing, we will win for them to see. We will ruthlessly slap their faces and make them cry!”
Just as the three of them finished speaking, Wang Mingtao suddenly raised his voice and exclaimed, “Everything, look! Someone is actually betting that we can win. Waw! And there is more than one!”
