The three cards were scattered on the table. Fang Shen's fingers turned white from pinching each other, and his head was lowered deeply, as if something heavy was pressing on his neck, forcing him to make such a weak and humble gesture.
Fang Shen's current attitude is not one of humility and politeness used as a weapon or disguise. It is one of complete submission.
Before Yuan Yuxue revealed her last card, he lowered his head and said in a trembling voice, "This round... I fold."
Fang Shen admitted defeat in advance.
When he has a straight flush of 10, J, and Q.
Even the dealer, who respected Manager Fang very much, was stunned and couldn't help but let out a surprised sound. He couldn't imagine why Fang Shen would admit defeat with such a good hand.
After Fang Shen pushed the 128 chips from the prize pool to Yuan Yuxue, he still spoke to him very earnestly, even humbly: "Yuan Yu... Mr. Yuan, please let me go. I don't want to continue this gambling game."
"I'm sorry, I was really blind and shouldn't have provoked you. I am willing to pay any price I can, just ask you... to let me go this time." He stood up from the gambling table, bowed deeply to Yuan Yuxue, and apologized. If Yuan Yuxue asked, he could even kneel down directly.
Fang Shen is an arrogant gambler who values dignity and face more than anything else since he was promoted to the manager of Dream Yuanmeng. It has been many years since he made such a submissive gesture to anyone other than his master.
But he really didn't have the courage to take a gamble and sacrifice his entire life.
This huge fear enveloped Fang Shen, making him willing to lower his head and bend over to show weakness to the young man in front of him. He was willing to pay a huge price as a lesson for this mistake.
Similarly, he was also very unsure about such a show of weakness. Before, he was the one who refused to let Yuan Yuxue leave the gambling table, and now Yuan Yuxue could certainly not let him leave the gambling table. If it really came to that, in the next two gambling games, Fang Shen was at the end of his rope and could only fight Yuan Yuxue to the death.
Yuan Yuxue looked up at him slightly, and Fang Shen lowered his eyebrows and eyes. Although he raised his head because he was sitting in the seat, according to the posture of the two at this time, he had a sense of oppression from the superior.
For Fang Shen, this was an exciting period of time that was even more painful and difficult than the moment when the gambling cards were revealed, and it could determine life and death.
Fang Shen felt a slight numbness in his back.
He didn't actually bend for long, but he felt as if a whole year had passed. His back felt cold, and his waist felt numb, and he could hardly support such strenuous movements. During the long trial, he seemed to have understood Yuan Yuxue's intentions, and knew that such a show of weakness would only bring more shame upon himself.
Even Fang Shen himself had never stopped when he was playing tricks on others, so how could he have the nerve to expect his opponent to show mercy and give him a way out - especially before this, he had been complacently showing an attitude of not wanting to end the bet. What goes around comes around, but he didn't expect that this time it would come so quickly.
But he has already admitted defeat in this round.
