Chapter 258 I was just a little lucky today.
"Hey! Look at this, looks like I'm having a lucky night, hahaha!"
Inside the club, a group of men with unfriendly expressions sat at a table, holding a deck of cards, with a pile of currency on the table.
Asakawa Yu immediately recognized the man with a full beard and his hair styled into a slicked-back look.
Sebastian, who is the Colonel Monlang they are looking for on this trip.
Seeing this, Asakawa Yu took Akemi's hand and walked forward with a slight smile.
"Any of you interested in taking a gamble with me?"
The sudden unfamiliar voice caught their attention. They turned around and saw that it was a very young man, which made them frown.
"Who are you?"
But Asakawa Yu didn't answer him directly. Instead, she took Akemi's hand and slowly walked to the crowd, or rather, to Meng Lang, and bowed slightly, saying:
“Mr. Meng Lang may not know me, but I have admired you for a long time.”
Upon hearing this, Meng Lang immediately became interested and asked, "Oh? You recognize me?"
Seeing that Meng Lang had taken an interest in her, Asakawa Yu's lips curled up slightly as she looked at Meng Lang with a smile and said:
"Who in all of London doesn't know the famous Mr. Sebastian?"
"Hmph! Interesting. In that case, let's all come together."
Meng Lang didn't ask who Qian Chuanyu was, nor was there any need to ask.
In his opinion, he had encountered countless hotheads like Asakawa Yu.
Moreover, he also wanted to know whether this young man truly possessed any skills or was merely a blustering fellow.
So he was happy to play with him.
After receiving Meng Lang's consent, Asakawa Yu patted Akemi's hand and then sat down in one of the chairs.
That seat was given up by one of the people at the gambling table. That person had already lost all his money, so he might as well give up his seat and watch a good show.
Akemi stood behind him, just like a real wife.
"Then let's start dealing the cards. You should know the rules, right?"
"Of course," Asakawa Yu replied calmly, showing no sign of nervousness whatsoever.
"Hehe, that's good." Meng Lang couldn't wait to see the despair in Asakawa Yu's eyes afterward.
Let me shatter all your confidence.
With a loud "Start!", the dealer began dealing cards to the players.
A minute later, Meng Lang looked at the pair of straight flushes in Qian Chuan Yu's hand and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
"What a pity, my luck seems to be pretty good."
Asakawa Yu swept all the chips into his own hands.
This sudden change forced Meng Lang to take the gamble more seriously, and at the same time, his attitude towards the young man in front of him also changed.
Was it just luck? Or...?
As the game of cards went on, Meng Lang's face gradually darkened.
"How can it be?!"
"You must have cheated!"
"Why is it that every time you get a slightly higher hand than us? There's definitely something fishy going on here!"
Soon, the other three people at the card table couldn't stand it anymore. They stood up angrily and shouted at Asakawa Yu.
"Hehe, where did you guys see me cheating? I just had a bit of good luck tonight. Besides, I might lose it all back later."
Asakawa Yu waved her hand, indicating that she was completely innocent.
"So, are you all the kind of people who accuse the other side of cheating if you lose?" Asakawa Yu began to stir up the other side's emotions with words.
"you!"
"Enough! Don't embarrass yourself here!" Meng Lang shouted, calling back the person who was about to say something.
But judging from his gloomy face, he wasn't in a good mood either.
Mingmei, who was standing behind him, also showed a hint of surprise on her face, which was covered by a black veil. She had just realized that her boss was also such a good card player!
How many things is her boyfriend hiding that she doesn't know about?
Even in the face of such a situation, Asakawa Yu showed no sign of panic. Instead, she looked at Colonel Meng Lang opposite her with great interest.
He knew that Meng Lang must be full of doubts and confusion at this moment.
Because he didn't know what method Asakawa Yu had used to deceive his monkey, causing him to lose cards repeatedly.
[Wow, Yu-ge, you're amazing! I thought all you did was kill, set fires, and drink coffee. I never imagined you were such a good gambler!]
[Can the person upstairs even speak properly? What do you mean by "only knows how to kill and set fires"?!]
This man seems omnipotent; it's like he knows a little bit about everything.
"Could you please tell me your name? A man like you couldn't possibly be completely unknown."
Meng Lang realized that Asakawa Yu had come for him today, but he didn't know what her purpose was.
It's impossible that they just came to challenge me to a card game.
Asakawa Yu felt a long-lost joy. Just before he was about to start gambling, he spent his popularity points, which he hadn't had in a long time, to exchange for a gambling proficiency skill in the system shop.
It was because of him that Asakawa Yu was able to win all the way in the gambling game just now, and even Meng Lang's monkey could not compete with him.
Asakawa Yu was aware that Meng Lang and the monkey behind him were cheating, but he didn't expose him directly. Instead, he wanted to see if his gambling skills were good enough to beat the cheater.
Judging from the current results, the effect is quite good. It can only be said that anything produced by the system is bound to be of high quality.
But now, Asakawa Yu clearly has no intention of continuing the act.
“Mr. Meng Lang, before I tell you my name, there is something I would like to ask you first.”
Upon hearing Asakawa Yu's words, Meng Lang countered, "Oh? Please speak freely."
Asakawa Yu's lips curled into a slight smile. "I'd like to ask, what does it feel like to cheat at the card table?"
The atmosphere froze instantly upon hearing this, and everyone stared wide-eyed, wondering how Asakawa Yu dared to say such a thing.
Meng Lang's expression changed for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and couldn't help but reveal a cold smile.
"Hmph! Kid, what evidence do you have? If you can't give me some solid proof, you won't be leaving here so easily today."
"If you want evidence, of course I have it."
Following Asakawa Yu's gaze, everyone slowly looked at Asakawa Yu... and the monkey behind him?
"Is this monkey your pet, Mr. Meng Lang?"
