Chapter 311: An eye for an eye
When He Huaqiang heard this, he panicked and hurriedly pointed at He Lian, saying, "Master Ye, that is my second aunt. She called me yesterday and said she was preparing to set a trap for a woman to scam her out of a large sum of money, and asked me to come and play the bad guy, so I agreed..."
After saying this, He Huaqiang hurriedly added, "Master Ye, I was really used by others!"
Ye Chen looked at He Lian, and He Lian was scared out of her wits.
Ye Chen pointed at her and beckoned, "You, come here."
He Lian didn't dare to delay, hurriedly crawled over, and said tremblingly, "Master Ye, it's a misunderstanding! If I had known Ma Lan was your mother-in-law, even if I had ten thousand guts, I wouldn't have dared to scam her..."
After saying this, she pointed at Qian Hongyan and blurted out, "It's all this stinking woman named Qian Hongyan who harmed me! She said her sister-in-law was very rich and very arrogant, so she always wanted to teach her a lesson, and invited me to set a trap with her, wanting to win your mother-in-law's villa..."
Qian Hongyan was also scared silly and hurriedly said, "Ye Chen, it's a misunderstanding. I didn't want to scam your mother-in-law. I was also scammed by this He Lian. She acted like she didn't know how to play all day, and I believed her, wanting to bring your mother-in-law over to get rich together. I didn't expect to be scammed by her instead..."
Ma Lan heard this and cursed in a rage, "Qian Hongyan, you stinking woman, you still want to scam my money and villa?!"
Qian Hongyan shivered and retreated, waving her hand, "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't!"
He Lian cursed coldly, "You still dare to deny it? Fine, then I'll show Master Ye our chat history!"
After saying this, she hurriedly took out her phone, opened WeChat, and played a voice message.
In the voice, Qian Hongyan's voice came through: "Sister Lian, I heard you're back in Jin Ling?"
Then came He Lian's voice: "Yes, I just came back a couple of days ago."
Qian Hongyan: "Sister Lian, you've been a dealer in Macau casinos for so many years, you must have some great skills at the gambling table, right?"
He Lian: "I wouldn't dare say that. I can barely rank in the top five in Macau, but in Jin Ling, I dare say there's no one I can't win against."
Qian Hongyan: "That's already very impressive! Sister Lian, I have a way to get rich, I wonder if you're interested?"
He Lian: "Tell me about it."
Qian Hongyan: "I have a sister-in-law who is quite rich. Their family has a villa at Tang Chen worth over 100 million, and this stupid dog is addicted to gambling. Since you have the means at the gambling table, why don't I call her over, you set up a game, and we win a large sum from her?"
He Lian: "A villa worth over 100 million? Is that true?"
Qian Hongyan: "It's true!"
He Lian: "Alright, but after it's done, I want 60%!"
Qian Hongyan: "No problem! You get 60%, I get 40%!"
When the voice message played to this point, Qian Hongyan was already scared silly. She hurriedly said to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, I didn't mean it. I'm your aunt-in-law, we're all family..."
Ye Chen looked at her and said lightly, "We'll talk about your business later."
After saying this, he had people drag her to the side.
Afterward, he looked at He Lian and asked with a smile, "I heard your cheating skills are very impressive?"
He Lian hurriedly explained, "Master Ye, actually, cheating is just some small tricks. I only know a little bit..."
Ye Chen nodded and asked, "How did you cheat in this game today?"
He Lian hurriedly explained, "This mahjong machine is customized. I can preset the tiles for all four players in the computer beforehand, and then use my phone to activate it at any time. When the machine automatically shuffles the tiles, it will shuffle them according to my requirements."
As she spoke, she further explained, "Then I can control the dice points through software and specify who gets what tiles. I gave your mother-in-law several hands that looked like winning hands, but they were actually dead hands, meaning hands that could never win. Plus, Qian Hongyan and Niu Guimin were cooperating with me, so it was a guaranteed win..."
Ye Chen listened to her explanation, nodded lightly, and asked, "How many people have you harmed using this method?"
He Lian hurriedly said, "Not many, not many... I don't usually do this."
Ye Chen frowned and asked, "In Macau, how many gamblers have you helped the casino win everything from? Among these gamblers, how many have been ruined, sold their children, or even died?"
"This... this..." He Lian was already sweating profusely.
Over the years, she had done many such evil deeds, and she didn't know how many people had been ruined.
Gambling itself is an abyss that can swallow everything. Some people fall into it themselves, and some families fall into it together.
However, He Lian never cared about the lives of these victims. She felt this was her way of making a living. If others didn't lose money, how could she win money?
So, she had never felt any guilt.
But Ye Chen saw through the heart of such a person at a glance.
Such people are the most cruel and heartless vampires in this world.
She lived by sucking others' blood, so she didn't care at all how miserable they would be after being sucked dry by her.
Ye Chen naturally had no sympathy for such people.
He looked at He Lian playfully and said with a smile, "How about this? Let's play a few rounds, shall we?"
He Lian was stunned and asked in surprise, "Master Ye, what do you want to play..."
Ye Chen said, "I don't know how to gamble. Poker, mahjong, pai gow, I don't know any of them. I only know one: Rock, Paper, Scissors."
He Lian asked in confusion, "Do you want to play Rock, Paper, Scissors with me?"
Ye Chen nodded: "Yes, I'll play Rock, Paper, Scissors with you, 10 million per round. How about that?"
"This... this..." He Lian said nervously, "Master Ye, I don't dare to play with you..."
Ye Chen said, "You have to play, whether you want to or not!"
He Lian had no choice but to nod in a panic: "Alright... then I'll listen to Master Ye..."
After saying this, she couldn't help but ask: "Master Ye, how do we play?"
Ye Chen laughed, "Don't be in such a rush. Before we play, I need to do some preparation work first."
"Preparation work?" He Lian looked surprised.
Ye Chen laughed, "You don't know about preparation work? Just like how you designed to scam my mother-in-law, I also want to cheat against you."
"Ah?!" He Lian was even more confused...
Rock, Paper, Scissors, how can you cheat at that?
She had been cheating her whole life, and she didn't know how to cheat at this!
Could it be intentionally being a few seconds slower than the other person? Seeing what the other person is going to play, and then playing something that beats them?
That would be too low-level, right?
Just as she was confused, Ye Chen suddenly grabbed her right hand, straightened all five fingers, and bent them with force. Crack!
All five fingers broke at the root at the same time!
He Lian screamed in pain, but Ye Chen lifted her left hand and broke all five fingers of her left hand with the same crack.
Now, He Lian's ten fingers were out of control, all ten fingers were only connected by skin, hanging down naturally.
Ye Chen said lightly, "With this hand shape, I'll assume you're playing 'Paper'. If you want to play 'Rock', you have to make a fist, and if you want to play 'Scissors', you have to make a V. Do you understand?"
He Lian cried, "Master Ye, all ten of my fingers are broken, I can't play Rock or Scissors!"
Ye Chen said disdainfully, "That's none of my business. Besides, when you cheated others, didn't you also leave them no chance to win? Today, I'll let you taste what it's like to be treated the way you treated others!"
