Wang Chao looked at Shen Bing, feeling a bit surprised.
Shen Bing used to be so aloof, but now she willingly took his arm, showing such affection without any hesitation.
"What's wrong?" Shen Bing asked.
Wang Chao quickly composed himself and smiled, "Nothing, let's go. We'll go and experience the casino here."
The two of them walked hand in hand, intimately, and descended to the third floor where the casino was located.
The space here was as spacious as a football field, filled with various machines for playing games—slot machines, blackjack, fishing machines, mahjong, pai gow... A dazzling array of options, countless in number.
Here, there was nothing you couldn't think of, and nothing they couldn't provide.
Shen Bing was dazzled by the sight and couldn't help but sigh, "There are so many things here. It's like a small gambling city. How do you even play these machines?"
"Some are about guessing the outcome, others are about luck, but the most challenging and also the easiest way to make money is blackjack," Wang Chao explained.
"Why do you say that?"
"Many of these machines are controlled by programs and advanced technology. The average person can't compete with computers and ends up losing miserably."
"Blackjack relies on technique, psychological tactics, card counting, and more. The opponents are still human dealers, which makes it the easiest."
"By that logic, can you play mahjong and pai gow too?"
"Yes, you can play them all. Blackjack is played with cards, focusing on point values, and each round is faster and slightly easier."
As they talked, they walked into the casino, observing the wide variety of machines and discussing them.
"Do you want to give it a try?" Wang Chao asked.
"Should we give it a shot?" Shen Bing was eager to try.
It was the first time she had seen so many gambling machines in her life, and now that she had the opportunity, she felt a great curiosity.
"Then let's exchange for some chips."
Wang Chao reached out his hand to Shen Bing. "I didn't bring my bank card. Can you give me yours?"
Shen Bing smiled and took out a bank card from her handbag, handing it to Wang Chao. "You don't need to exchange too much, just 100,000 yuan to play with."
"The password is my birthday."
Being a billionaire, 100,000 yuan was nothing more than the daily expenses of an ordinary person for 1-2 years. For Shen Bing, it was just a form of entertainment.
Wang Chao internally chuckled at this thought but remained composed on the surface. He smiled and said, "Sure, 100,000 it is."
Pausing for a moment, he asked, "By the way, what's your birthday?"
Shen Bing realized that she hadn't shared her birthday with Wang Chao and smiled faintly. "It's July 29th, 1993."
Wang Chao nodded, took the bank card, and walked away.
Soon, he returned with 100,000 yuan worth of chips for Shen Bing.
Shen Bing took the chips and divided half of them for Wang Chao. "Let's gamble and see who can make more money."
"In that case, you might end up losing," Wang Chao chuckled.
In the past, he had extensively trained in various gambling techniques such as dice rolling, card counting, card switching, and memorization. He had reached a level of mastery that even the local gambling gods were beneath him.
Shen Bing challenged him, but she was simply not on the same level as him.
"Don't underestimate me. I used to have an eidetic memory and strong mental calculation skills. Gambling is all about mathematics and probability. I refuse to believe that I will lose," Shen Bing confidently declared.
"Ten gambles, nine deceptions, and one cheater. Be careful," Wang Chao cautioned.
"Do not worry, I have my own methods," Shen Bing smiled.
After speaking, she sat directly at a blackjack table, took out 10,000 chips, placed them on the table, and said to the dealer, "Deal the cards."
The dealer was a beautiful woman with a stunning figure.
When she saw Shen Bing, her eyes lit up, impressed by her presence.
She glanced at Shen Bing, then at herself, feeling inferior. With a sigh, she immediately started dealing cards to Shen Bing.
In the first round, Shen Bing won.
She provocatively glanced at Wang Chao.
Wang Chao smiled and remained silent.
Shen Bing continued to play, winning several consecutive rounds.
Not only that, she also tried her hand at various other games, winning all of them. The 50,000 chips she started with quickly grew to over five million.
"How about that?" Shen Bing provocatively looked at Wang Chao.
"Impressive," Wang Chao sincerely admitted.
He had initially thought that Shen Bing would quickly lose all her chips, but he never expected her to be so strong. Not only did she have good luck, but she also possessed strong mental calculation and photographic memory skills.
Within just an hour, she multiplied her funds by a hundred. Such talent would make even the gambling gods feel inferior.
Applause erupted as Liu Xiangqing and his bodyguard Shura appeared before Wang Chao and Shen Bing. They applauded while saying, "President Shen is indeed impressive, multiplying your capital by a hundred in one go."
"Such gambling skills, truly admirable."
Shen Bing looked at Liu Xiangqing and nodded slightly. "Mr. Liu, you're too kind. I'm just a bit lucky."
"Just now, President Shen won ten rounds in a row at blackjack. That's not just luck; that's skill," Liu Xiangqing said.
Shen Bing smiled but didn't reply. Instead, she changed the subject. "Mr. Liu, you can enjoy your games. I'll go investigate another area."
Liu Xiangqing didn't try to stop her. Instead, he walked to the side, called the dealer over, and said, "President Shen, do not be in a hurry to leave. How about we gamble? If you win, I'll tell you the whereabouts of the Ghost Shadow Flower. How about that?"
Shen Bing paused and immediately turned back. "Mr. Liu, are you serious?"
Liu Xiangqing smiled faintly. "I always keep my word."
"President Shen, what do you think? Are you interested?" Liu Xiangqing asked.
"Using the Ghost Shadow Flower as a stake, I imagine you have great ambitions. What do you desire to gamble with me?" Shen Bing asked.
"It's simple. If I win, you have to accompany me on a trip abroad to help me obtain the Ghost Shadow Flower. Once the task is completed, I'll naturally give you a share."
"I'm afraid Mr. Liu's request is not that simple," Shen Bing replied.
"Hahaha, President Shen is indeed intelligent. You have immediately seen through my intentions," Liu Xiangqing laughed heartily, raising a finger and saying to Shen Bing, "If I win, not only will you have to join me in seeking the Ghost Shadow Flower, but you will also have to give me 10% of the Shen family's shares."
"President Shen, do you think my request is unreasonable?"
