The Master Descends the Mountain: My Destined CEO

One hundred thousand was enough for her to buy several luxury handbags.

She hesitated.

Finally, she slowly opened her palm.

Zhu Chen finished watching and, realizing it wasn't the person he was looking for, sneered. "So much for all that high-and-mighty talk. All it took was five hundred thousand in chips for you to willingly sell yourself out."

"You..." The female dealer wanted to retort, but she knew they were telling the truth.

'But for money, what's a little humiliation!'

She pretended not to see the contemptuous gazes of the people around her and quickly gathered the chips.

Just then, another dealer brought a man over.

"Who dares touch my woman!"

The man looked to be in his forties, with a potbelly and a bald head. He was maybe five-foot-four at most and, standing next to the dealer, was shorter than her by half a head.

They looked like a beast and a princess.

But even so, she linked her arm through his coquettishly. "Honey, look, someone is bullying me!"

Without a second thought, the man waved over his bodyguards. "Take these two down!"

As they charged over, Xiao Ye didn't hold back. He raised a long leg and sent them flying.

BANG!

The two bodyguards landed heavily on the ground, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths.

"'It's over. They actually dared to hit Third Master's men!'"

"'Third Master is a big shot in our casino, not to mention a whale. The casino itself protects him. For that guy to actually fight back... he probably won't be walking out of here alive today.'"

"'She's just a dealer, but Third Master is really protective. Well, it's none of our business. Guess it's just bad luck for those two kids.'"

"You dare hit my men!" The man called Third Master was instantly enraged.

He was a big name in this city, and he owned a lot of assets.

Usually when he came to play, the casino staff were all respectful and deferential. Forget about laying a hand on him; no one even dared to say a harsh word.

Xiao Ye spoke coldly, "Take your men and get lost!"

Otherwise, he wouldn't mind personally throwing them out.

"'You... you!' Third Master had never been humiliated like this. But he hadn't brought enough men. 'Go! Get the person in charge of the casino out here!'"

"'I'd like to ask what's going on here! How dare someone in this casino lay hands on me! They must have a death wish!'"

Xiao Ye didn't care at all. It wouldn't matter who they called today.

Zhu Chen said, "This man's face tells me he's vicious and cruel. I'd wager he has eight, if not ten, lives on his hands."

Hearing this, Third Master sneered. "So you have some sense, kid. Let me tell you, no one who offends me comes to a good end!"

"'Here's what we'll do. You two kneel and apologize to me right now. Then, each of you will give my little darling a million to soothe her nerves. After that, we'll call it even.'"

"'Otherwise, I'll turn you into fish food for the pond!'"

'Every other word is a death threat. How arrogant.'

'Does he really think the law doesn't apply out here in the middle of nowhere?'

Xiao Ye looked at him. Although his expression didn't change, the disdain in his eyes was extremely obvious.

"'Trash like you thinks you're worthy of our apology?!'"

"'This kid is a classic case of a newborn calf not fearing a tiger. Third Master gave him an out, and he should've taken it. To still talk like that... he must have a death wish!'"

"'I followed him for a couple of bets and made some money. I was even thinking of putting in a good word for him, but forget it now.'"

"'Not backing down now is just asking to die!'"

Third Master was furious. Just as he was about to speak, the casino staff arrived.

"'Good, you're here. Take these two kids down for me! Today, I'm going to teach them the rules of the casino!'"

When the casino manager saw Xiao Ye, he raised an eyebrow. He hadn't expected them to be the ones making trouble.

'He was originally hoping this young man could earn him more money!'

"'Third Master, I'm aware of the situation. These two young men are new here. How about we handle this according to the code? No need to make a big scene.'"

After speaking, he gave the female dealer a discreet glance.

'He didn't mind the female dealers getting involved with rich patrons, nor did he care about their private lives.'

'But they couldn't bring trouble to the casino. That was the most basic rule.'

'Besides, on his way over, he had already heard that this whole thing started because this female dealer was unwilling to let someone touch her hand.'

'Looks like he'd have to reinforce their training.'

'If you won't let people touch your hand, then why be a dealer? You might as well just go home!'

'If you want to earn this kind of money, you need to have the right attitude!'

The female dealer flinched under his gaze. She knew she would definitely be reprimanded.

Third Master wasn't hurt, only his two bodyguards were.

"'Alright. For the sake of the casino, I'm willing to take a step back.'"

After speaking, he looked at the manager. "In that case, you find someone and handle this according to the code. I don't want to see them walk out of here in one piece."

"'Alright.' The manager called over a subordinate. 'Go, chop off both of their pinky fingers.'"

He looked at Xiao Ye with a somewhat regretful expression. "Young man, you were too reckless. You've offended someone you shouldn't have."

"'Giving up one finger each will teach you a lesson. In a way, it's for your own good.'"

"'Not every place is as principled as our casino. If this happened outside and not here, it wouldn't be as simple as just one finger.'"

Of course, Xiao Ye knew that, but he refused to accept it.

'When a person is weak, they have to follow others' rules.'

'But he and Zhu Chen didn't have to!'

The casino's subordinate walked up to Xiao Ye and Zhu Chen. "Alright, both of you, stick out your left hands. You use your right hand more often, so as a small lesson, we'll just take the left."

Third Master puffed on his cigar. "You hear that, kid? If this weren't the casino, you wouldn't be walking out of here alive, even after we'd chopped off both your hands!"

Xiao Ye didn't speak. Just as the other party was about to make a move, he sent him flying with a single kick!

'Want his finger? In their dreams!'

'In this world, no one had ever dared to talk to him like that!'

'A lowly casino lackey thought he could lay a hand on him?'

'Now *that's* what you call having a death wish!'

The entire place instantly fell silent.

No one had ever imagined that Xiao Ye would actually dare to attack the casino's own men.

This wasn't just offending Third Master anymore; this was offending the entire casino!

"Well, that does it. There's no way those two are walking out of here alive now!"

"Even if they did, they'd probably be carried out."

"'Young man, it's just a finger. Give it to them. It's better than losing your life.'"

Xiao Ye paid the speaker no mind. In his eyes, none of these gamblers were any good, either.

For whatever reason, anyone who came here to gamble was, in his opinion, trash.

The manager's face darkened. "Kid, I was trying to help you out, seeing as you're young and new here."

"'I didn't expect you to be so ungrateful. Since that's how it is, I'm washing my hands of this!'"
