Entering the casino, body searches are indeed quite common. Firstly, it's to make sure that no cheating tools are hidden on the guests, and secondly, to guard against eavesdropping or hidden recording devices. Even mobile phones are not allowed in.

A moment later, the cheongsam-clad hostess in front of Chu Ge nodded, "Sorry for the delay, sir. You may enter now."

On the other side, the person searching Mu Lingshan also signaled that there was no issue, with a professional smile, "Miss, please."

In fact, if Chu Ge hadn't displayed such charisma over the past few days and wasn't regarded as an esteemed guest by the casino staff, those conducting the body searches would have been the burly men in suits, rather than these gentle and polite hosts.

Finally, the doors that Chu Ge and Mu Lingshan had longed to see opened.

At this moment, as the gap between the doors widened, anyone with eyes could immediately tell that this place was undeniably a casino.

The first sight is a very spacious hall, lavishly decorated. Around various gambling tables, people with different expressions gather, truly a scene of mixed fortunes.

The closest to Chu Ge are several people playing dice. They watch and listen intently, waiting. As the three dice clattered to a stop and revealed the final result, some burst into laughter, some sighed in disappointment, and others cursed under their breath with dark expressions.

All over the vast hall are similar scenes, where the sounds of various emotions intertwine constantly. Faces twist for different reasons amidst the cacophony of voices.

Apart from the immediately visible areas, there are some tightly closed private rooms, which, unsurprisingly, are places for card games. However, the people playing money games here are truly those with strength and recognized by the casino. Their betting amounts generally far exceed those in the surrounding gambling tables.

"Brother Qian, what do you want to play today?" Now that they were finally inside, Mu Lingshan couldn't be more excited, her eyes shining brightly as she looked around, unable to stop swallowing her saliva.

Chu Ge's gaze also roamed around quickly spotting a game that satisfied him. He gave a slight smile, put his arm around Mu Lingshan's shoulders, and walked toward a very bustling area.

"Come on, let's check out the roulette with Brother Qian."

Although Mu Lingshan was excited, to be honest, she wasn't very confident. Chu Ge had already lost over a million in the peripheral gambling tables before managing to sneak into the real casino. Could he really win enough to wipe out this casino's huge gambling capital?

Rather than uncertainty, saying she didn't believe in Chu Ge would be more accurate. After all, based on Chu Ge's previously displayed gambling skills, he didn't seem to have much luck or skill.

Even though Chu Ge's plan sounded feasible, winning seemed really difficult.

Not to mention, playing roulette.

The roulette here seemed very high-end, clearly made from expensive North American imported cherry wood. The diameter was 360mm, and the body was made of 192 pieces of different patterned cherry wood glued together. The body was round, with sunbeam-like rays radiating outward from the center, forming a funnel shape.

It looked like the wheel was made of 38 cherry wood pieces, but considering its durability, there were internal strips connecting each piece, making a very sturdy and solid wheel.

Arriving at the gambling table, Chu Ge scanned and confirmed that this was an American-style roulette. It was divided into thirty-eight narrow slots, numbered one to thirty-six, half red and half black. In addition, there were two green slots, one marked with a zero and the other marked with a double zero.

The game is played by betting on odd or even numbers, red or black colors. Of course, you can also bet on single or multiple numbers, as well as the first, middle, or last segments of numbers. As long as it's within the player's bet range, it's considered a win.

At the table, a very beautiful dealer stood with her hands crossed at her lower abdomen, smiling serenely, waiting for the guests to place their bets.

Chu Ge glanced at the dealer and asked, "How do we place bets on your roulette? Is there any upper limit?"

Upon hearing Chu Ge's question, the nearby gamblers instinctively glanced at him. This guy's tone is a bit too big, isn't it? Looks like a rich man!

The dealer smiled and explained, "Sir, betting on odd/even and colors has the lowest odds, while betting on a single number has the highest. We don't have any other restrictions, you can bet as much as you want."

Chu Ge nodded, and directly had Mu Lingshan open the money box, taking out ten thousand in cash, casually tossing it onto the table.

Although this is a casino, chips are not used. Instead, it's all straightforward cash. While it may not look particularly official, the visual impact is quite strong, very thrilling for the gamblers who come here.

With a "thud," the ten thousand in cash landed on the table. Chu Ge scanned the roulette, pinched his chin, and laughed, "Then I'll bet on a single number, um... I'll go with number nine."

The dealer was stunned, giving Chu Ge a look of mixed emotions, but only nodded and said nothing.

The change in the dealer's expression was subtle, but the surrounding gamblers were different. They looked at Chu Ge as if he were an idiot.

This guy actually dared to bet on a single number? Is he out of his mind?

Not only did others think this, but Mu Lingshan also smiled wryly, completely unable to figure out what Chu Ge intended to do.

This guy really doesn't see money as money? Casually throwing out ten thousand, and even betting on such an unreliable single number, it's practically like throwing money down the drain!

Generally speaking, those who like to play roulette prefer to bet on odd or even numbers, or red and black colors. Even the more daring gamblers would just bet on numbers within three sections, aiming for a 1-to-2 payout.

After all, with so many numbers on the roulette wheel, the odds of that little ball landing on a single expected number are almost impossible. No matter how much money you have, it's never enough to throw away there.

Once everyone had placed their bets, the dealer confirmed them and began to spin the wheel.

Under a sea of eager eyes, the little ball started clicking along with the spinning wheel, circling round and round, slowing down gradually, until finally, it came to a halt in the groove of number fifteen.

"Damn it! Missed again!"

"Hahahaha, great, finally seeing some return money!"

In gambling, there are always some happy and some sad. While some laugh heartily, others clutch their chests in regret. However, whether winning or losing, they all glanced at Chu Ge, wanting to see what expression this "sucker" had.

Unfortunately, Chu Ge's reaction disappointed them. On his face, there wasn't any noticeable change in expression. It was as if what he had just thrown away wasn't ten thousand dollars, but a few insignificant scraps of paper.

The dealer also gave Chu Ge an inconspicuous glance, then started clearing, taking the casino's winnings and distributing the winnings to the gamblers at the table.

Mu Lingshan looked at Chu Ge with some anxiety, "Brother Qian, you..."

Chu Ge smiled faintly, gestured with his hand to indicate she needn't say more, and gave her a reassuring look.

At this moment, a new round was about to begin. Many people at the table threw money up again, and the dealer routinely asked, "Anyone else betting?"

"Snap"

Chu Ge threw another twenty thousand, "Still betting on a single number, this time eight."

The people around the table looked at Chu Ge with even more schadenfreude. Mu Lingshan sighed deeply in her heart, this guy is mad, definitely mad. At this rate, it wouldn't take long to lose all the money he had on hand.

The dealer, of course, welcomed gamblers like this. Smiling slightly at Chu Ge, she began to spin the wheel.

Click click click, click click click...

As the wheel spun, the little ball kept bouncing. During this short span of over a minute, it kept tugging at everyone's heartstrings around.

As the ball slowed down, Mu Lingshan's heart sank immediately. Although she initially held on to a bit of a lucky thought, reality crushed it, and Chu Ge's twenty thousand dollars were indeed once again wasted.

The other gamblers around were looking at Chu Ge with increasing schadenfreude.

Third round, fourth round, fifth round...

Chu Ge's money kept shrinking, yet he seemed completely unaffected by losing money, maintaining an indifferent look.

Seeing Chu Ge was only left with fifty thousand, he finally said something unrelated to betting.

"Dealer, could you let me take a spin at the wheel?"

Hearing what Chu Ge said, the dealer paused in surprise, hesitatingly looked at Chu Ge twice, "Sir, this... doesn't really follow the rules."

Chu Ge curled his lips, nonchalantly saying, "Aren't rules made by people? Or do you think I could pull some trick on the wheel? Remember, we all got searched on entry."

"This..."

The dealer was indeed troubled. Chu Ge's demeanor reeked of a rich family's playboy. If possible, she didn't want such a lavish-spending guest to be displeased.

After hesitating for a while, the dealer said, "Sir, how about this? I'll go ask for permission, if they don't agree, then... there's nothing I can do."

Chu Ge nodded carelessly, "Go ahead."

The wheel paused, and the dealer went to make a phone call.

Not long after, the dealer returned to the table and nodded at Chu Ge, "I have spoken with the management, and we can accommodate your request. Go ahead, please."
