Chapter 113: Chapter 112 Iron Stick Twists

Liu Wenxing leaned in and whispered, "Brother Tian, I’ve got the 2 of spades, what should we do? What number are you?"

"Number 9, haha, our luck is just too good, bumping into each other like this," Lin Tian chuckled.

Seeing Lin Tian still laughing, Liu Wenxing was utterly confused, not knowing what Lin Tian was up to. Didn’t he see the fierce look in Bai Yufeng’s eyes? It was practically murderous.

Remembering the cocktail they were going to have to drink later, Liu Wenxing’s head started to spin. How could Lin Tian still be in the mood to laugh? With trembling hands, he was about to reveal the card on the table when Lin Tian stopped him.

"Wenxing, your luck isn’t great, let me do it for you, hehe." Lin Tian waved his hand, and before anyone could see clearly what he did, he had already flipped the card over.

"The 3 of spades?" Liu Wenxing was dumbfounded. Just a moment ago, he had seen that the card was definitely the 2 of spades.

Lin Tian patted his shoulder, telling him not to be too shocked and said with a smile, "Wenxing, I told you, your luck tonight couldn’t beat mine; it’s this ’Hand of God’ that brought you good fortune."

Aside from Bai Yufeng, everyone else thought Lin Tian was just joking, but Bai Yufeng could see clearly. The 2 of spades was definitely in Liu Wenxing’s hand just moments ago; how did it suddenly change to the 3 of spades? Whose hand was the 2 of spades in now?

"Lin Tian, reveal your card," Bai Yufeng insisted, unconvinced.

Reveal it then, no need to shout, Lin Tian flipped his card with an easy smile, showing the ace of spades!

"This... this..." Bai Yufeng was flabbergasted, unable to comprehend this eerie scene.

"Brother Bai, is there something wrong?" asked Lin Tian, feigning confusion, "Could it be that you knew our cards in advance?"

"How... how could that be!" Bai Yufeng quickly denied it. Accusations like that would incite public outrage, and even with a hundred guts, he wouldn’t dare to admit it. He turned to the others and said, "Everyone, open your cards!"

The others stretched out their hands to reveal their cards, sighing with relief that it wasn’t them. Sun Decai was not so lucky, as his card had turned into the 2 of spades. The 9 of spades had yet to appear, which meant it must be the card in the middle of the table, the King’s hole card, which was Bai Yufeng’s card.

"Brother Bai, Brother Decai, looks like your luck isn’t so good," Lin Tian said with a tinge of regret, then pushed the two specially made cocktails towards them, "Enjoy this rare delight of the world, gentlemen. No need to be polite with us!"

The young lack neither courage nor bravado, but to drink this concoction would surely give them nightmares for days. Unbeknownst to them, the bar had switched the music to Wu Bai’s "Sudden Self", and the raspy voice from the speakers sang out, "Come on, swallow down this glass, and there is still another!"

Lin Tian thought to himself that there might be a moment of silence for the bar’s DJ; after this, Bai Yufeng might just sack him.

"Breaking the rules of the game will cost you ten million each," Lin Tian reminded them, seeing that they made no move to drink.

"Lin Tian, it’s you who’s cheating," Qi Jing stood up and spoke out unexpectedly. She frowned at Lin Tian and said, "Cheating doesn’t count. Why should they have to drink?"

Dammit, I haven’t called them out for marking the cards and here you are accusing me of cheating, Lin Tian squinted his eyes, without even giving her a glance or a reply, just staring at Sun Decai.

Lin Tian’s disregard ignited Qi Jing’s anger further. She was about to speak again when Sun Decai stopped her, and without a word, picked up the cocktail and gulped it down quickly.

"Brother Decai, you..." Qi Jing didn’t understand why it was like this.

"Shut up!" Sun Decai took a deep breath, suppressing the churning feeling in his stomach. Without evidence, accusing someone of cheating was a big taboo. With so many people watching, they would think that even he, Sun Decai, couldn’t control his girlfriend. How would he mix with others in the future?

Bai Yufeng also couldn’t figure out what the problem was and could only pick up his glass and drink it down as well. His constitution was not as good as Sun Decai’s. The cocktail had just been swallowed when it churned, threatening to come back up.

"If you throw up within ten minutes, there’s an extra penalty of one drink; you know the rules," Liu Wenxing suddenly reminded.

These words made Bai Yufeng swallow back what had already returned to his mouth. Damn, that’s disgusting. Lin Tian felt nauseous just watching. He quickly said, "No more playing, I’m going to be sick just watching."

Lin Tian stood up, parted the crowd, and was about to leave, but Sun Decai loudly protested, "Lin Tian, you think you can just leave after winning? It’s not that easy."

As soon as his words fell, a bunch of thugs from the bar surrounded them from all corners, holding steel pipes in their hands.

"This isn’t gambling; it’s just a game. I’ll play if I want, leave if I want. You don’t have the skills to keep me here, huh!" Lin Tian walked out with Xiao Manxuan and Liu Wenxing, not taking the thugs seriously at all.

"Our boss hasn’t let you go," a man blocked Lin Tian’s path, his hand holding a dark red iron rod that reached his eyebrows, his expression fierce.

"Trying to act like the Double Flower Red Stick, dreaming of being a gold-medal thug, huh? You’ve watched too many movies." Lin Tian thought it was too childish. He suddenly made a move, and before anyone could see what happened, the dark red iron rod was already in his hand.

Then Lin Tian did something that left everyone dumbfounded. Holding the iron rod, he easily bent it and tied it in a knot. The rod issued a piercing "creak" as it bent, echoing in everyone’s ears, sending chills down their spines.

With a "clang", Lin Tian tossed the twisted iron rod onto the ground. With an expressionless face, he said, "Open your eyes wide. This Liu Wenxing here is my good buddy. In the future, if anyone dares to be disrespectful to him, your legs will end up just like this iron rod."

Having said that, Lin Tian walked straight out of the bar, and no one dared to block his path.

"Brother Tian, you scared me by bending that iron rod," Liu Wenxing said jokingly, feigning fear as they walked outside.

"Liu Wenxing, he’s just strong, nothing strange. My sister can do it too," Xiao Manxuan, accustomed to such sights, wasn’t surprised. She was more puzzled by the odd changes in the cards: "What I’m curious about, Lin Tian, is how you changed the cards. Do you know magic?"

Magic, huh? The little girl’s imagination is too rich. Lin Tian laughed and said, "No magic, just quick movements. I suddenly switched the cards between myself and Wenxing with theirs. Nobody noticed because it was too fast."

"Oh, so you snatched someone else’s iron rod the same way," the two of them suddenly realized, nodding in understanding.

Driving away from the city center, Lin Tian first dropped Liu Wenxing off at school, then returned to the Xiao Mansion. Unexpectedly, the Miss was actually waiting for them in the living room.

"Xuanxuan, where have you been so late? It’s past ten," Xiao Manxue said worriedly.

"Miss, I took her to a party. Don’t blame her. But you, why are you free to sit here?" Lin Tian excused the little girl and countered.

"Hmph, come back earlier next time you go out. Also, this is the new contract for the jade stone shop I’ve drafted. Check the terms, and if there’s no issue, sign it so that I can proceed with the next steps," Xiao Manxue didn’t linger on the topic, instead handing over a document.
