Fade was deep in thought. After a brief respite, he waved his hand and said, "Let's start with twenty. If it still isn't enough, we shall continue playing."

"Twenty!" The bosses' eyes lit up. They looked at Fade and said, "Mr. Chen, let's make things clear. The starting bet is one hundred thousand. Twenty rounds? Can you afford to play with us?"

"Can I afford it?" Fade snorted. He took out a VIP credit card, capable of an overdraft of up to 100 million yuan, and threw it on the gambling table. He said in an arrogant tone, "I have never encountered a gambling game that I can't afford to play."

Despite Fade's arrogance, Eden and the bosses didn't seem to be angry. On the contrary, they were delighted by him.

They'd met quite a few such upstarts at the gambling table. The more arrogant these people were, the more miserably they'd lose in the end, and the more profitable it would be for the group.

Thus, Eden nodded and said, "So be it, let's sit down and play."

Fade took his seat and Eden indicated for the dealer to begin.

However, Fade waved his hand dismissively, stopping the dealer, "Texas Poker? It's too slow. It's no fun. Come on, make it quick and fun."

Eden raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you have in mind, then, Mr. Chen?"

Fade thought about it for a moment. He grabbed a dice cup and placed it on the table, saying, "Let's play guess the dice. You guys in?"

When the group heard this, they were taken by surprise. They looked at each other, assessing the situation. Naturally, poker would be better for them as it was a game of strategy and wits. It was the perfect game for them to scheme together if they wanted to play tricks on an unsuspecting newcomer.

Dice, however, relied mostly on luck.

They started looking worried, but Eden reassured them furtively with a secret 'OK' gesture.

Then, he smiled at Fade and said, "It's just a dice game. Why wouldn't I dare?"

"Then let's play," Fade said and was about to begin rolling.

However, Eden stopped him and said, "We need a new set of dice. Mr. Chen, you don't mind, right?"

As they spoke, Eden had the dealer bring a set of new dice.

"Mr. Chen, do you want to check the dice?" Eden handed him the dice.

Fade waved his hand and said, "There's no need to do so. We are all reputable folk. There won't be anyone trying anything funny, will there?"

Hearing this, Eden and the others exchanged looks. They smiled at each other and said, "Let's start. Who shall be the banker? Mr. Chen, you're so generous. Do you want to be the banker?" Fade waved his hand and said, "To be fair, let's change bankers every round."

"Sure!" Upon hearing this, Eden grinned wider.

It should be noted that there were four of them and only one person in Fade's group. All four of them knew the secret technique of maneuvering the dice inside the cup; they can do whatever they want. As for Fade, he would have no clue that there'd be something weird going on with the dice.

If they took turns, the four of them would each go once in a cycle, and they could guarantee Fade's loss. Even if Fade was blessed with heavendefying luck and won each round, he would still be statistically guaranteed to lose money.

By this logic, the outcome of the game was already determined before it even began.

As a result, they were all smiling happily.

"In that case, allow me to start." Eden was the first to volunteer.

Fade said, "Okay. Let's get started. Don't dawdle, ladies."

Eden was not thrilled to hear the insult. However, thinking of the fact that they would be winning all of Fade's money, he grew excited again. He picked up the cup and started rolling.

After shaking the dice for a while, Eden placed the dice cup on the table and said, "Gentlemen, place your bets."

Fade took Lily's remaining 100,000 in chips on the table and said, "Big! I'm placing my bets on big."

Seeing this, the other three bosses looked at Eden, and then dropped their chips into the small pool and said, "We're going small."

"All of you bet on small?" Fade looked at them.

The three of them laughed and said, "We are just having fun."

Without another word, Fade looked at Eden and said, "Mr. Li, reveal the dice."

The corners of Eden's lips curled, revealing a smile. Then, he gently pressed a hidden button on the dice cup.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound coming from the dice cup. It seemed to be the sound of the dice toppling over.

Hearing the voice, Eden felt at ease and smiled. He looked at Fade and said, "Sure."

"Open!" Fade waved his hand and placed his palm on the table.

There's no way that anyone could notice Fade's move. Even if they did, they could not have noticed the hidden energy that Fade emitted. The dice in the cup, however, flipped.

Eden was confidently enjoying his moment. He opened the dice cup and said, "It's open. Small! Mr. Chen, you've lost."

Eden reached out for Fade's chips, but Fade slapped his hand away. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Li, is there something wrong with your eyes? Four, five and six add up to fifteen, and the outcome is big. How could it be small?"

Eden looked down and found Fade to be right. He was speechless. He whispered, "How could it be? I obviously..."

Before he could finish, the boss next to him coughed and interrupted him, saying, "Mr. Li, it's my turn now."

Eden realized that he had almost spilled the beans, so he immediately shut his mouth and handed the dice cup over. Then he said, "Pedro, it's your turn. Be careful!" After that, Eden reimbursed Fade's winnings bitterly.

Seeing this, Fade said with a smile, "Mr. Li, you won 300,000 from Director Huang and the others and only lost 100,000 to me. Overall, it's a win. Why the long face?" Eden almost cursed out loud. The four of them were basically the same player, so there was no winning or losing among them. Therefore, in fact, he had lost that round. However, he could not say that out loud. Eden could only laugh drily to cover it up. "I'm not sad. I just feel no kick from playing with such a small ante." "Oh, so that's what it is! I'll up the ante then. 200,000, I'll still bet on big." While speaking, Fade threw in the 100,000 he just won, putting the bet at 200,000. The rest of them were surprised at Fade's boldness.
