Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 1920: Chapter 1823: Mission Accomplished

Huo Sining initially just listened casually to Clayflo’s polite remarks, sensing that everyone across the table had stiff expressions, likely feeling a pang of regret in their hearts.

However, when Clayflo mentioned the possibility of gambling again in the future, she immediately felt overwhelmed, almost jumping back a few steps. She looked at Clayflo with a conflicted expression:

”No, Mr. Duke, let’s forget the next time. I really don’t like gambling; luck has its limits, and I think this kind of opportunistic thing, once is enough.”

As she said this, Huo Sining’s gaze suddenly swept over to the box by Semiya’s hand, and her tone paused for a moment before continuing:

”However, if Mr. Duke has more of such fine items to auction or sell at present, I wouldn’t mind continuing today’s gamble.”

Clayflo’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch. Today’s fortune was clearly on Huo Sining’s side. The woman hadn’t looked at a single card and yet had already beaten Alden. This was something he had never seen in his gambling career, not even Alden in his days as the crowned Las Vegas Gambling God had such courage and skill.

Now this woman actually said the gamble could continue. Clayflo wouldn’t dare to follow her lead in this!

Not to mention he had nothing in hand now, even if he did, he wouldn’t gamble with her under such circumstances, unless the items were burning a hole in his pocket, itching to be thrown out.

He wanted to pull his sister’s move of crying foul and accuse her of cheating, but yesterday when this woman gambled with Semiya, she did handle the gaming pieces. However, today, she hadn’t touched a card with a single finger. Even if he wanted to cheat, he couldn’t find a reason.

Clayflo felt a wave of depression, knowing full well that today’s bet was a complete loss for him, both financially and strategically.

He watched as Huo Sining began to instruct Li Jun and Gu Xu to move the box of antiques, while Su Qingqing happily took the signed agreement in hand. Clayflo couldn’t help but speak up, reminding Huo Sining:

”Miss Huo, today’s result truly surprised me. However, I must remind you that in the agreement we signed, the prize only gives you the priority to purchase the two finale items. If you really want them, you’ll need to pay a huge sum at auction, I hope you can understand that.”

Huo Sining nodded: ”Of course, even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I already knew.”

Clayflo nodded, gazing deeply at Huo Sining, he said:

”Then I’ll wish you good luck, hoping that during these days, you can quickly gather enough funds. After all, once those two items are up, there will surely be more than a few bidders. I believe the final transaction price will not be low. If Miss Huo cannot pay the equivalent funds, in that case, we will still sell these items to others.”

Huo Sining nodded and said: ”Mr. Duke, rest assured, even if I exhaust all I have, I will never give your auction house that chance! Those two items can only belong to Huaxia Country!”

Alden finally came to his senses on the other side, but the light in his eyes dimmed considerably, and even his original aura weakened, making him seem to age ten years instantly. Semiya beside him seemed to want to console him but couldn’t find the words, only being able to cautiously call: ”Uncle Levi...”

Clayflo couldn’t help but let out a long sigh, coming over to pat Alden on the shoulder, he said: ”Uncle Levi, the casino’s situation can change in an instant, anything can happen. You don’t have to mind it so much.”

Alden looked at Huo Sining who was whispering with her companions on the other side, nodded, and sighed: ”I am indeed old now, having been away from this circle for too long, I can no longer keep up with the times.”

Alden had experienced the highs and lows of life, having faced many defeats in the casino, yet this time he had never felt so dejected.

He lost, and even until he lost, he couldn’t decipher his opponent at all, nor did he know what gambling skill she used to win against him.

Alden’s posture was hunched, appearing to have taken a heavy blow: ”Enough, I had already withdrawn from this circle. It looks like in these ten years many talents have emerged in the gambling industry, and this circle has become a realm for the young. As the Yangtze River’s waves push the old forward and leave them on the sands, I don’t have grounds for grievance in losing this round today.”

Clayflo still wanted to say something, but Huo Sining and her companions walked over to bid farewell to the siblings.

”Mr. Duke, today was thoroughly enjoyable. Thank you for your hospitality, we’ll be going back now. We’re all looking forward to the auction the day after tomorrow, hoping it won’t disappoint. We’re eager for the two finale items to make a grand entrance!”

Clayflo smiled: ”Miss Huo, just wait and see. I, Clayflo, always keep my word. I’m sure this ultimate event will not disappoint you and your friends!”

Huo Sining nodded, pulled Su Qingqing and the others, and turned to leave.

It wasn’t until they were escorted back to the hotel by Clayflo’s bodyguards that Huo Sining finally felt a sense of relief. To be honest, since she had received a hint from her master last night, guessing that the two finale items Clayflo mentioned were the Beast Heads, she had felt a heavy burden.

Zhou Shitao’s command over the phone, stating that she must win this gamble, had filled her heart with a strong sense of responsibility and desire to win, hanging like a rock. When Windsor Caesar finally announced her victory, it all felt so unreal that she could only confirm its reality upon returning to the hotel. She truly had defeated Alden, once the Las Vegas Gambling God.

The first thing Huo Sining did upon returning to her room was to eagerly pick up the phone to call The Ocean, to relay this exciting news.

The call connected almost instantly.

In Huaxia Country, it was three in the morning, a time of deep silence, yet her master’s voice on the other end was clear and tense, excited and anxious: ”How was it? What’s the result, did you win or lose?”

Huo Sining’s lips curled into a smile, she softly said: ”Mission accomplished!”
