I Won a Lottery: Marrying the CEO

"Beauty, care to make a bet?" A wiry Chinese man tried his luck, striking up a conversation near Gu Xia.

"Not playing, no money," Gu Xia said with a smile, turning him down.

"I have some here, I'll share with you. Anyway, I'm not having much luck today, why not let you try? If you help me win, we can split it fifty-fifty."

Actually, running into such overly familiar folks in a casino was no longer anything new.

Gu Xia glanced at the few chips he had left in his hand; by her estimate, they amounted to about US$800.

Then she laughed lightly, "Fifty-fifty won't do, I'm quite greedy. If I help you break even, I take 60%, you take 40%."

The wiry man was startled when he heard Gu Xia's terms, but then he burst into laughter.

"Alright, girl, if you win, you get 60% and I get 40%."

The man probably thought he'd just met a simple sweet girl. Who knew how the luck would turn, maybe in a blink, all could be lost with no chance of breaking even?

So he agreed quite readily.

After getting his consent, Gu Xia took all his chips right out of his hand.

Then she asked him, "Do you think we should bet high or low this round?"

The man thought hard for five seconds, "It's been big for the last seven rounds, let's bet small this time."

Gu Xia gave a slight smile, "Okay."

However, after saying that, she placed all US$800 in chips on the high side.

"Hey? What are you doing? That's high; I just said let's bet low."

As if she hadn't heard him, Gu Xia remained unmoved...

When the cards were revealed, sure enough, it was high again, and she'd doubled the win, leaving the man dumbfounded.

Inside a super VIP room

"Where is she?" Yu Xiuli had only played a few hands of Baccarat and thought Gu Xia was behind her eating.

When she turned around, she realized Gu was gone, having long since run off to god knows where?

He had no desire to continue playing either. He turned and walked out, looking down from the second floor of the grand hall, he immediately spotted Gu Xia in the area for high and low bets, a man beside her.

President Yu's expression was not good, and he casually walked down the stairs.

Strangely enough, in less than fifteen minutes, Gu Xia had helped the man win back US$50,000.

She won round after round without miss.

Then the man, ecstatic, handed Gu Xia chips worth US$30,000.

"Girl, you've got great luck today, stay and play with me for a bit longer."

Before Gu Xia could respond, she felt a strong hand reach from behind.

It tightly grasped her waist, and just as she turned around to curse, she saw that exceptionally beguiling face.

"Wife, running off again..."

"Wife?" The wiry man was utterly confused, glancing between Gu Xia and Yu Xiuli.

Gu Xia didn't wait to speak,

Yu Xiuli continued, "Didn't I tell you it's dangerous to wander around when you're pregnant, especially when the baby is not even three months old yet..."

"Pregnant woman?" Hearing the conversation reach this point, the man quickly backed away.

"Damn it..." Gu Xia cursed Yu Xiuli inwardly.

Yet outwardly, she still had to ask with a forced smile, "President Yu, how old are you?"

"I am exactly sixteen this year."

"Do you have no shame?" Gu Xia rolled her eyes hard, wishing she could glare him to death.

Yu Xiuli didn't respond to her remark but glanced at the US$30,000 in chips she held,

Knowing they had just come from that man, he suddenly,

Took the chips out of Gu Xia's palm and handed them to a waitress holding a tray nearby.

The waitress was overjoyed and thanked him in English.

"What the hell... what are you doing?" Gu Xia was furious, jumping up and down. US$30,000, over a hundred thousand RMB, was gone in an instant. Gu Xia had just figured out how to spend the money.

"You shouldn't take money from other men; listen, your husband has money."

"You have it? How about showing some then?" Gu Xia's face turned steely, her frustration shown through her outstretched hands.

"You're still young, it's not safe to hold too much money now; listen, let your husband keep it for you," Yu Xiuli said as he stroked Gu Xia's head.

Gu Xia felt like a thousand alpacas were stampeding through her heart...

The hard-earned reward she had just won vanished in an instant because of this guy.

Could there be anything more duplicitous than this?
