I lost a kidney?
As Yu Xiuwen was thinking, he looked down at his abdomen.
Then, he saw that he was now dressed in blue-and-white-striped hospital attire, and at his abdomen, his clothes were slightly lifted, revealing a large bandage wrapped around his waist.
What?!
Upon seeing the bandage, Yu Xiuwen's mind was filled with questions.
Because the bandages that were supposed to be white were now smeared with touches of red, and it seemed to be spreading.
What does that imply?
It implied that his wound wasn't properly stitched up, damn it, the blood was still oozing out!!
Yu Xiuwen was almost reduced to madness by frustration!
Damn it, even if you were going to take my kidney, at least perform the surgery in a proper hospital, right?
What you guys did was completely like a back-alley butcher's job!
No wonder he felt such pain in his abdomen after waking up!
As Yu Xiuwen was thinking this, he saw that blood was still seeping from his abdominal wound, quickly staining the gauze red.
"Sigh, it's turned red again, do you even know how to wrap a bandage?!"
Mu Jinyu couldn't help but rebuke Li Heshan and the others upon seeing this scene.
Li Heshan and the others were all nodding yes, holding their heads down, not daring to utter a word.
They were afraid that Yu Xiuwen might catch them unable to suppress a smirk at the corner of their mouths.
After Mu Jinyu finished speaking, she sighed, "Feels like this old man might not make it, shall I just remove his other kidney as well?"
"No, no, no..." Yu Xiuwen hastily shouted, "I think I can still be saved!"
Even a lowly ant clings to life; although he was of age and would have to donate his heart in a few days, living a few extra days was always better than dropping dead on the spot, right?
Perhaps, in the next few days, he might find an opportunity to escape this place!
"Alright then," Mu Jinyu hesitated, then said, "Seeing as your will to live is quite strong, I'll give you another bandage, in the hope that you can hold on for a few more days."
"Thank you so much!" Yu Xiuwen said with a mournful expression on his face.
After that, Mu Jinyu knocked Yu Xiuwen out and instructed her subordinates to remove the bloodied gauze, replacing it with fresh bandages, this time without any tampering.
"My dad's okay, right?"
Yu Linglong also walked in from outside, asking with concern.
But from the slight upturn of her lips, she seemed to be struggling to contain herself as well.
"Of course, he's fine," Mu Jinyu said while taking off her rubber gloves.
"So, will he still feel itchy to gamble in a few days?" Yu Linglong asked.
"Do you think he would dare to feel itchy?" Mu Jinyu asked back.
Yu Linglong thought about it and felt that after this ordeal, Yu Xiuwen probably wouldn't dare to gamble again.
Seeing Yu Linglong deep in thought, Mu Jinyu lightly chuckled and said, "Don't worry, even if one day he gets the itch to gamble again, he'll certainly remember today's itchy consequence!"
Just then, one of Li Heshan's subordinates rushed in hastily and said, "Brother Shan, something bad has happened, a tough customer is smashing up the place, and we've already lost three billion to him!"
While speaking, he glanced at Mu Jinyu, clearly remembering vividly the scene when Mu Jinyu took 1.1 billion from them.
Especially now, with someone else coming to smash up the place, it naturally made him unwillingly compare the two situations.
"Hmm? What's going on?"
Upon hearing this, Li Heshan's brow creased slightly as he asked.
The subordinate honestly replied, "At first, we didn't realize he was here to cause trouble. Later, we noticed that he was consistently winning more than losing. His chips quickly reached 100 million, so we started to pay attention to him. Then, as we saw him surpass 150 million, we sent out Ah-Qiang to face off against him. With the croupier's cooperation, we thought we could take him down, but Ah-Qiang was no match for him, so we've come to ask for your intervention."
The Ah-Qiang he mentioned was a gambling expert trained by their casino.
His gambling skills were only slightly inferior to Li Heshan's. Under normal circumstances, there was hardly ever a need to send out Ah-Qiang.
Generally speaking, gamblers who come to the casino tend to play small, only betting a few hundred million. As the casino was a sizable business, they really wouldn't specifically target such players!
Those who do get targeted have definitely walked into a trap!
Like Yu Xiuwen, for example.
Thus, the River City tycoons who gamble a few hundred million, or even up to a billion, wouldn't be specially targeted, which is why their underground casino business was flourishing.
Only if those tycoons showed a trend of winning billions would they deploy a gambling expert to work with the croupier to balance his chips.
If they couldn't balance it, and the person had a significant backing, they would have to pay off the trouble to get him to leave.
But if the person had no significant backing and still dared to be so greedy, then they would have to make him disappear.
Just like what happened to Mu Jinyu last time.
After listening, Li Heshan's frown deepened as he said, "I'll go take a look."
Having said that, he didn't bother to say more to Mu Jinyu, gave an apologetic nod, and then followed the subordinate out with big strides.
After all, if there was trouble in the casino he managed, he would be hard-pressed to shirk responsibility!
Mu Jinyu had actually been planning to arrange for Yu Linglong and Yu Xiuwen to stay here before returning to accompany Gu Xiyan and the others.
Seeing this commotion, he couldn't help but become curious.
Therefore, he too went out to see what was happening.
Yu Linglong stayed behind to look after Yu Xiuwen.
Mu Jinyu left their office and headed toward the bustling No. 3 gambling hall.
By then, Li Heshan had already taken a seat at a gambling table across from the troublemaker.
The gamblers were thrilled to see Li Heshan enter a face-off after a month, reminding them of the scene where Mu Jinyu had dominated all sides.
They wondered whether this expert could do the same as Mu Jinyu?
With his 300 million in chips, could he defeat Li Heshan and leave unscathed?
At that moment, their game had already begun.
They were playing Showhand. After the machine shuffled the deck, the croupier began dealing the cards with a shovel!
Although their casino's croupiers and electronic devices had plenty of room for foul play, at least ostensibly, no casino dared to completely disregard the rules, making it blatantly obvious to outsiders that something fishy was going on!
"Click clack! Click clack!"
The card shuffler quickly prepared the deck, and the croupier began dealing cards to them with a wooden shovel.
The rules of Showhand were as follows: the croupier would first deal each player one hidden card, which would only be revealed during the showdown.
Starting with the second card dealt, each round of betting began with the player with the highest visible card. If someone bet, those who wished to continue playing had to press the "follow" button, matching the previous player's bet, or they could choose to raise. If players felt their hand was weak and did not wish to continue, they could press the "fold" button to concede the round and wait for it to end, though they wouldn't be able to reclaim their previous bets.
The final round of betting was key. In this round, players could go "all-in" for Showhand, meaning they bet the maximum amount that all remaining players were able to match. After everyone made their betting decisions, the hidden cards were revealed to determine the winner.
The person with the highest hand would win all the chips on the table.
