Chapter 74: The Gathering Storm

The call was from Eighth Brother.

He was undoubtedly more anxious than I was at this moment.

As soon as I picked up, Eighth Brother's voice came through briskly:

“Brother, the gambling match begins tonight. I’m sending someone to pick you up; shall we meet and discuss?”

“No need for a ride; I’ll come to you! Is it a cash game or a chip game?”

“Cash game!”

“Alright!”

After hanging up, I descended the stairs.

Dark was already waiting for me downstairs.

As soon as I got into the car, Dark promptly informed me:

“Master Lupan, my two disciples have arrived. I’ve arranged for them to go to the hotel…”

“Good, understood. Tell them to await notification…”

As I finished speaking, I lit a cigarette.

I mentally rehearsed the plan again.

Tonight's game must proceed without a hitch; otherwise, the consequences would be dire.

After a moment's thought, I sent a message to Boss Zheng, informing him that I would contact him in the afternoon and to await my call.
