At this moment, amid the exclamations of the crowd, Wu Laosi's eyes glazed over as he stared intently at the two dice on the table, muttering to himself, unable to believe that the Prosperity Dice Roll of Double Ninth he had managed to roll was quickly crushed.

"How could it not be the Perfect Shaking Mountain Roll?"

Liang Yida's cold gaze swept over Wu Laosi as he snorted, "Wu Laosi, do you mean to say you're the only one allowed to roll big, and when someone else scores higher than you, you won't accept it?"

"No! No... Boss Liang, I... I didn't mean it like that, please don't misunderstand!"

Though Wu Laosi had some influence in Guanqian Town, it was limited to just a small town.

But Liang Yida was a big shot from the city, and Wu Laosi knew his strength well; how could he dare to offend him? He was forced to carefully appease him.

"Hmph, since that's not what you meant, let's have no hard feelings over the bet, Boss Wu, I won't stand on ceremony then!"

Liang Yida let out a cold grunt and signaled to a subordinate who, understanding, collected the ten thousand yuan from Wu Laosi.

Wu Laosi had intended to reclaim his capital, but instead lost another ten thousand yuan and, in his annoyance and embarrassment, decided to go all in and threw fifty thousand yuan onto the table:

"Boss Liang, you're a big boss from the city, gambling for such small stakes really isn't interesting. Why don't we raise the stakes, fifty thousand a roll, what do you think?"

"Heh heh, I've said before, as long as Boss Liang is interested, no matter how much we bet, I'll keep you company!"

Liang Yida glanced at the banknotes on the table, his face showing an expression as if he had Wu Laosi all figured out, and readily agreed without hesitation.

The spectators were already shocked by the ten-thousand-yuan stakes, and upon hearing it would be fifty thousand, they were completely stunned.

However, no matter how shocked the gamblers were, Ling Zhenfei remained calmly composed, standing there without uttering a word.

Liang Yida had been keeping an eye on Ling Zhenfei, and seeing this scene, his brow furrowed slightly, his expression complicated.

In the next dice roll, which was a bet on the smaller numbers, it was unclear whether Wu Laosi was truly unlucky that day, or whether Liang Yida was just extremely fortunate, or perhaps his gambling skills were just that superior. After an exchange, Liang Yida won another fifty thousand yuan from Wu Laosi by a slightly lower margin.

"Again! I refuse to believe that my luck, Wu Laosi's luck, is that bad! I still have eighty thousand, I'm betting it all!"

Having lost sixty thousand in two rounds, and adding the initial twenty thousand, Wu Laosi's total loss of eighty thousand was utterly devastating for him!

Even in Binyang's big gambling dens, Wu Laosi had never lost so much money.

For a moment, Wu Laosi felt like he was about to go mad with rage and pushed all his remaining money forward.

Today's gamble was do or die! He was all in...

However, ironically, even though Wu Laosi mustered the courage for a last stand, it seemed Heaven had no intention of favoring him.

When the third round's outcome was revealed, Wu Laosi's last eighty thousand yuan, his entire stake, was lost in an instant!

Wu Laosi was a complete scoundrel; losing one hundred and sixty thousand yuan all at once, under normal circumstances, he would have gone crazy and denied his debts. But in front of Liang Yida, he didn't have the guts!

Sitting at the now empty table, Wu Laosi was so furious he trembled all over and his face turned deathly pale, but he dared not explode. In the end, he could only leave the seat with a bitter sigh.

Seeing Wu Laosi lose everything, Ling Zhenfei felt not the slightest pity but instead even a sense of deep satisfaction.

This guy spreads high-interest loans everywhere, making shady money by taking advantage of people in distress—he has long been a well-known scourge near and far. It's just that with some backing behind him, ordinary people couldn't touch him.

However, he hadn't expected that today, right on his own turf, he would be dealt with so neatly by the uninvited guest Liang Yida!

From this point on, Ling Zhenfei couldn't help but see Liang Yida in a new light.

Although on the surface, Liang Yida didn't stand out in appearance, and his clothes were very ordinary, it was hard to tell what his background was.

But from the reaction of Wu Laosi, who was so angry that he was about to explode yet didn't dare to offend him, Ling Zhenfei guessed that this man must have some reputation in Binyang City.

It's just that he had been in Binyang for two years, and although he was a student and not too familiar with the ins and outs of the city's underworld, he still knew something. However, he had never heard of a person called Liang Yida!

Who exactly was this Liang Yida, that he could make Wu Laosi so wary of him?

Although he had won several hundred thousand from Wu Laosi, there was no joy on his face as one would expect from a usual gambler; instead, he casually tossed the banknotes to his subordinates.

Based on just this alone, Ling Zhenfei could conclude that this Liang Yida must be very wealthy. A sum of over a hundred thousand was nothing more to him than petty cash to tip his subordinates with.

As Ling Zhenfei was secretly observing Liang Yida, Liang Yida happened to cast his gaze upon him.

Their eyes met in mid-air, and Liang Yida gave Ling Zhenfei a friendly smile, "Brother, just now you were able to guess that my dice roll was higher than Wu Laosi's, clearly you are a gambling expert as well. Why not sit down and we have a game, how does that sound to you?"

"Hehe..."

Ling Zhenfei offered a faint smile, his gaze swiftly shifting to the code-locked briefcase filled with cash beside Liang Yida:

"Boss Liang, you flatter me, I'm certainly no gambling expert. However, since Boss Liang seems keen on a game, I don't mind taking the chance to earn some pocket money from you!"

Although Ling Zhenfei was not a gambler and had no love for gambling, he was in need of money right now, and since this Boss Liang was so wealthy, he felt it was necessary to win some money from him.

"This..."

The obstinate words of Ling Zhenfei visibly surprised Liang Yida, leaving him speechless for a moment, unsure of what to say.

"You insolent brat, how dare you speak to my boss like that!" one of Liang Yida's men who was standing beside him shouted angrily at Ling Zhenfei after hearing his words.

Ling Zhenfei didn't even bother to give more than a passing glance to the subordinate who had spoken, he simply took a seat where Wu Laosi had been sitting moments before, his gaze returning to Liang Yida as he gestured with an inviting hand, "Boss Liang, after you."

"Haha, it seems that this brother is quite straightforward!"

Liang Yida's eyes locked with Ling Zhenfei's for several seconds, his gaze brimming with admiration as he asked with a smile, "May I know the distinguished name and residence of this brother?"

Given that his information was no secret, and most folks in town knew him, if Liang Yida wanted to find out, he could just ask anyone.

Therefore, Ling Zhenfei saw no need to hide his identity from him and reported his name and address directly.

"Great! So you're Brother Ling! Brother Ling, so young yet with such courage, Mr. Liang genuinely admires you!"

Liang Yida was a seasoned character in society who had been around the block; his ability to judge people was certainly not unfounded. He could tell at a glance that Ling Zhenfei was no ordinary person, far beyond roughnecks like Wu Laosi.
