877 Arrogant Fan Zhihao

He Hongyuan stared at Gu Ning, trying to frighten her, but Gu Ning didn’t bother to give him a glance, which annoyed him.

How dare she ignore me!

Leng Shaoting was displeased seeing their reaction, but he knew his role well, so he had to remain silent.

“Miss, what’s your name?” He Hongyuan asked in an arrogant tone.

“Tang Aining,” Gu Ning said with pride. She wasn’t afraid of them at all.

He Hongyuan had never heard of the name, Tang Aining, in the gambling industry, so he believed that she was a new face.

“Miss Tang, where are you from, and how many years have you been involved in this industry?” He Hongyuan asked again with obvious dislike.

“I don’t think those questions have anything to do with today’s competition,” Gu Ning replied.

“I just casually asked. Why is Miss Tang so annoyed at me? I’m much older than you after all. Aren’t you afraid that people will criticize your rude attitude towards an old man?” He Hongyuan said. He blamed Gu Ning for everything.

“Oh, Master Hongyuan, if you really care about age and manners, why did you come here today to compete for the leading role in the He family? Aren’t you a member of the He family too? Couldn’t you assist Master Hongjie since he’s losing his hearing? Aren’t you afraid that people will criticize your ambition?” Gu Ning asked.

Hearing that, He Hongyuan was mad. He hit the table with his palm and stood up at once.

“Don’t you dare say that again!” he snapped at Gu Ning.

Before Gu Ning could do anything, Leng Shaoting, Gao Yi and Qiao Ya who was standing behind her fixed their eyes on He Hongyuan without delay to warn him not to shout at Gu Ning.

Facing the three of them, He Hongyuan was a little scared.

He was an ordinary man after all, while the three of them had killed countless times. Any one of them was able to make He Hongyuan feel utterly stressed.

Not only He Hongyuan, but other people around him also felt the pressure. Gu Ning gave them a glance at this time, and they went back to normal.

He Hongjie and the others who sat near Gu Ning were also surprised by their power. They couldn’t believe that they were just bodyguards.

After hearing Gu Ning’s questions, everyone turned to look at He Hongyuan and thought about whether it was his scheme.

He Hongyuan panicked a little, but still argued. “Miss Tang, show us any proof if you’re suspicious of me, otherwise it’s slander.”

Hearing that, most people dumped their suspicions of He Hongyuan. It was indeed slander if there was no solid proof. Therefore, many people looked at Gu Ning with unkindness.

Gu Ning didn’t mind. She had no proof, but she knew that it was the truth.

“It’s 2 pm now. Let’s set the bet first!” He Hongjie interrupted their argument. It was meaningless to argue over that topic now.

He Hongyuan also dropped that topic. Although he was confident that they couldn’t find any proof, he was reluctant to talk about it.

“Since it’s about the future of the He family, I think that we should bet a lot of money on it. It’ll be boring if the bet is a little. What do you think, Miss Tang?” Fan Zhihao wanted to take the initiative.

He disrespected women, so he didn’t think that Gu Ning could beat him.

Even though Gu Ning was He Hongjie’s guest, he still believed that he wouldn’t lose to a woman. He was an arrogant man.

“Why not! How much do you want to bet on it? Tell me a number,” Gu Ning said, and sounded even more arrogant than Fan Zhihao.

Fan Zhihao was annoyed by Gu Ning’s tone, and said, “Very well. Why don’t we bet ten million a round?”

Fan Zhihao said a high number not only because Gu Ning annoyed him, but also because he was using his own money to play today’s game. He believed that he could win, so he planned to make more money.

Hearing the number, everyone was surprised. Ten million yuan was just the bet for a round, and it could turn out to be over a hundred million yuan under the effect of the odds.

“Cool!” Gu Ning said airily, like ten million yuan was merely nothing in her eyes.

Fan Zhihao, however, was displeased. He somehow had the feeling that Gu Ning thought ten million yuan was very little, and he also had a sudden impulse to raise the bet.

Nevertheless, ten million yuan was indeed a lot, and it could become a much bigger number in the following game.

Although he didn’t think that he would lose, he should be careful.
