Chen Fan smiled faintly, "Despair? Those two words don't suit me well, but they seem rather fitting for you."
"Hahaha, kid, you still dare to act tough here? If you have the guts, show us your trump card."
"Kid, I'm really curious about what despair feels like, but our strength doesn't allow it. With just the four of us holding our cards, I doubt you can beat any of them."
"Our strongest hand is a straight flush. To beat us, kid, you have no hope in this lifetime."
The three men taunted Chen Fan again.
"Is that so? A straight flush is indeed a strong hand, but what if it encounters a royal flush?"
As he spoke, Chen Fan reached out and flipped over both of his hole cards.
Instantly, everyone present fixed their gaze on Chen Fan's two hole cards: a Club Ace and a Club Jack.
Boom!
The crowd was struck as if by lightning, their eyes wide open.
With a clang, the man on the far left of the gambling table stumbled and fell directly from his chair onto the floor.
The middle-aged man and the two men on the right were dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief.
Because Chen Fan's hole cards, combined with the community cards, formed a 10, J, Q, K, A of the same suit – a royal flush. And Chen Fan's hand was the highest possible hand at the table.
"We won, we won! Xiong, Brother Xiong, we won!" Er Gou, seeing Chen Fan's hole cards, was so excited he could barely speak.
Da Xiong was equally astonished, his mouth agape, his jaw almost dropping to the floor.
"Fortunately, fortunately," Da Xiong secretly rejoiced. He had almost folded this hand.
It was fortunate that Chen Fan arrived in time and turned the tide, winning this high-stakes gamble with the hand he held.
"A royal flush, my god, this kid actually won!"
"Five billion, four people is twenty billion, plus the previous bets on the table, damn, they're rich now."
"Su Cheng has lost terribly this time."
"Indeed. They originally wanted to take all of Da Xiong's assets, but they never expected to hand over Su Cheng's assets to Da Xiong and his group."
"Look at the expressions of the casino owner and the other three. They're all looking worse than the other."
"Of course. If you lost five billion, you'd probably look worse than them."
"All these assets they gambled with belong to Master Gui. If this news reaches Master Gui's ears, these four will be in trouble."
Everyone present turned their gaze towards the four casino owners.
At this moment, the faces of the middle-aged man and the other three had indeed become extremely grim.
Chen Fan glanced at the man who had just gotten up from the floor, a slight curve on his lips. "What? Didn't you say you really wanted to know what despair felt like just now? Now you know how it feels, no need to thank me in advance."
"Thank you? I'll thank your ancestors!" The man, filled with indignation, pointed at Chen Fan and cursed.
Da Xiong glared at the man. "Damn it, you dare to curse my Brother Fan? Believe it or not, I'll cut out your tongue!"
Chen Fan waved his hand and said in a persuasive tone, "Da Xiong, they're gifting us over twenty billion in assets for free. A few curses to vent their anger, no need to dwell on it. One should be magnanimous."
"Yes, yes, Brother Fan is right, we should be magnanimous." Da Xiong's face was practically blooming with joy.
Then he pointed at the items on the table. "Er Gou, what are you still staring at? These things are all ours, quickly pack them up."
Er Gou nodded hurriedly and jumped onto the gambling table.
What stunned everyone even more was that Er Gou, from somewhere, produced a woven bag and stuffed all the property deeds, stocks, and fund documents from the table into it.
This scene made the middle-aged man and the other three's eyelids twitch.
"Brother Hong," the man on the left called out softly to the middle-aged man.
Pan Hong exchanged a look with the man.
As the boss of an underground casino, he was adept at reading people and naturally understood the man's intention.
He nodded slightly, stood up, and looked at the surrounding crowd. "Everyone, our gambling session for today has concluded. We have some matters to discuss next, so the casino will be temporarily closed for the day. Please leave immediately."
As Pan Hong's voice rang out, a commotion erupted from the crowd.
They weren't fools and naturally understood what Pan Hong and his group were planning.
However, they were ordinary people and dared not get involved in such underground power struggles.
Upon hearing Pan Hong's words, they all left the underground casino.
Seeing the crowd disperse, Er Gou, who had jumped down from the gambling table, frowned and asked Da Xiong, "Brother Xiong, should I send a message to our brothers?"
He also understood that Pan Hong clearing the venue meant they were going to deal with the three of them.
Da Xiong nodded slightly.
After all, there were many people here, and he didn't want Chen Fan to get hurt.
Chen Fan smiled calmly and asked Pan Hong, "What do you mean by this? Are you saying that if we win money in your casino, we can't take it with us?"
Pan Hong sneered, "Winning money is naturally something you can take. But don't forget who you are."
"You come to my underground casino in Su Cheng to cause trouble. Do you think I'll let you leave?"
The man beside him stood up and pointed at Chen Fan and the other two. "If you leave your money and assets here today, we might spare your lives. Otherwise, I can guarantee that tomorrow, there will be three more corpses in the Su Jiang River of Su Cheng."
The four looked at Chen Fan with playful eyes. In their opinion, they had already controlled the situation and had no reason to be nervous.
As long as the items couldn't be taken away, their losses could be recovered, and they could even seize all the assets of the underground forces in Jiang Cheng.
Thinking of this, Pan Hong and the others couldn't help but show excitement.
Chen Fan scoffed, "After all these grand pronouncements, you still want what we have, don't you?"
"That's right, kid, Xiong. I advise you to be wise and know when to quit," Pan Hong no longer concealed his intentions and responded directly.
"And what if we don't give it?"
"Don't give it? Heh heh, kid, is your hearing alright? If you don't give it, you won't be leaving here today." The man's eyes revealed a fierce glint.
Chen Fan said calmly, "We never intended to leave in the first place, because today, we are here to take over the entire underground forces of Su Cheng."
"Hahahaha!"
"Kid, what did you say? You want to take over the entire underground forces of Su Cheng?"
"You're too full of yourself, kid. Even Da Xiong is trash in our eyes. Who the hell do you think you are to say such things here?"
Chen Fan's words immediately drew laughter from everyone.
