Chapter 53: The Stunning Female Dealer, Astounding the Entire Room

At this moment, countless viewers watching *No More Bets* found it hard to believe.

Truly, before stepping into the cinema, none of them thought this would be a good film; at best, it had a low probability of being bad, and at worst, it was almost certainly cinematic garbage.

Yet, just a dozen minutes into the movie, they discovered that it was completely contrary to their expectations!

This movie turned out to be—
Actually good!

The film continued!

——

"Our business scope is actually quite broad: stock trading, cryptocurrency mining, online gaming, e-commerce, and gambling."

"The company is divided into eight groups: Proposers, Promoters, Deceivers, Escapers, Wind-Fanatics, Fire-Bringers, Rumor-Exterminators—ever heard of them?"

"Those are the Eight Sects of the ancient confidence tricksters!"

"These are the Proposers, also known as 'dog-pushers'; they are responsible for chatting and prospecting..."

"The Mastermind group, they are responsible for writing code and modifying web pages."

"This row here is entirely the Escaper group, responsible for network security..."

Cheng Cheng led the newly arrived "employees" into the interior of the compound, explaining as they walked.

To the audience, this content was immensely attractive, akin to witnessing a novel wonder of the 21st century. It gave them the sensation of learning something new while watching a movie, feeling both novel and thrilling!

Reaching the stairwell between the first and second floors, a completely naked man was tied to an iron gate, his mouth sealed with silver duct tape.

A-Cai was poking him with a blue-sparks-emitting stun gun.

Cheng Cheng: "Who's that?"
A-Cai: "Ran away yesterday, got dragged back."

Accompanied by the agonizing screams of the tortured man and the crackle of the stun gun, Cheng Cheng and A-Cai's calm tones sent chills down the spines of everyone listening.

"Still dare to run?"
"Huh?"
"Speak!"

Arriving at the second floor, Cheng Cheng swiped his card to enter a room.

"Here comes the good stuff!"
"Beautiful dealers, dealing live online!"

The camera cut. Inside the room, hundreds of stunning women sat neatly in rows before gambling tables, featuring a mix of Tianxia beauties, tall foreign models, and Southeast Asian beauties.

The entire spectacle was breathtaking.

The men in the cinema gasped aloud on the spot, and the women were equally shaken.

This scene was thrilling!

Immediately following, hundreds of fair hands gently tapped the bells on the tables, and the female dealers collectively blew kisses.

Among them was Wen Lian.

Even amidst a sea of beauties, she still looked peerlessly gorgeous and breathtakingly stunning.

She wore a black halter-neck strap dress, simple yet undeniably elegant. The sleeveless design perfectly showcased her exquisitely sculpted collarbones and graceful neck line, making her look like a beauty stepping straight out of an oil painting.

Her two jade-white arms hung down naturally, her skin delicate and smooth like meticulously crafted porcelain.

Adorning them were two beaded chains—one wrapped around her upper arm and the other gently dangling from her wrist—shining against her skin and adding a touch of mystery and unique allure to her overall look.

The overhead lights cast a glow upon her face; her features were as exquisite as a painting, and her affectionate eyes were like deep lakes, sparkling with life and brimming with tenderness.

Her full lips were plump and vibrant, curling slightly upward to reveal a charm that could overthrow kingdoms.

To be fair, Shang Shi had already been captivated by her.

The audience collectively let out an awestruck gasp.

Wen Lian's styling was simply too gorgeous!
A complete visual feast!

"Roulette, dice cups, blackjack, Niu Niu, Zha Jin Hua..."

As Cheng Cheng introduced the games, a plump, voluptuous beauty walked out of a small room, throwing a piece of clothing over her shoulders.

Pan Sheng, played by Li Yang, and the others who had been lured here, stared in utter shock.

Cheng Cheng looked at them: "Nude chatting~"

Many in the cinema let out low chuckles.

The line itself wasn't particularly funny, but paired with Cheng Cheng's "every man understands" expression, it was hilarious.

Shang Shi couldn't help laughing out loud either.

——

Next, the plot advanced.

The audience was completely immersed.

This movie was simply too good!

Shang Shi watched without uttering a single word.

Thoughts like "failing to watch *The Glorious Era* in time" or "going to tear it to shreds with criticism" had been completely thrown to the back of his mind.

——

Cheng Cheng recruited Pan Sheng; Pan Sheng refused, so Pan Sheng was beaten.

A-Cai assigned tasks to Pan Sheng; Pan Sheng refused, so Pan Sheng was beaten.

Through front-on and side-on perspectives, the film vividly displayed the ruthlessness and lawlessness of the scam compound, even touching upon the inner workings of the telecommunication fraud industry, leaving the audience cheering in exhilaration.

Then came the crucial turning point of the plot: Pan Sheng attempted to pass out a rescue note through the bathroom window, only to run into Liang Anna, played by Wen Lian.

Wen Lian's mouth-watering, exquisite physique went without saying.

How she ended up in the scam compound was also slowly revealed through a flashback—

"Don't tell me this isn't you."

In an office, a young boss pushed a small promotional card toward Wen Lian.

Wen Lian: "This is me, but someone stole my photos; I don't do this kind of work."

Young boss: "Good, then I am officially notifying you on behalf of Fangxiang: your contract is terminated."

Wen Lian looked perplexed: "Why?"

Young boss: "Clause 7, Article 9: damaging the company's image. Contract terminated!"

Wen Lian: "My photos were stolen; it has nothing to do with me! You should go after the person who stole my photos to hold them accountable. I'm a victim too!"

Shang Shi let out a sudden snort of laughter. Fangxiang? Wasn't that just a blend of Fanghua Skincare and Xianghua Entertainment?

Cheng Cheng had definitely smuggled his personal grievances into the creation of this plot, using Liang Anna's voice in the film to lodge a complaint against Fanghua Skincare and Xianghua Entertainment.

"If Fanghua Skincare and Xianghua Entertainment see this, their expressions must be wonderful," Shang Shi thought, eager to watch the drama unfold, and let out a chuckle.

Other viewers were also deep in thought. Stepping into Liang Anna's perspective, this kind of thing was truly unacceptable; Cheng Cheng must have had a very hard time back then.

Wen Lian: "What about the remaining payment?"

Young boss: "Remaining payment? You're asking me for the remaining payment? I should be asking you for damages!"

Wen Lian: "How can you be like this? What did I do wrong? I can explain, I can prove my innocence. What I didn't do, I simply didn't do!"

Young boss: "You say you didn't do it, so you didn't do it? To take a step back, even if you truly didn't do it, does the public know you didn't do it? Does the client know you didn't do it? Do the consumers know you didn't do it? As long as even a single person believes it, your existence has already caused a substantial impact on our company."

Wen Lian: "!!! How can you be like this? We were cooperating just fine before—"

Before she could finish, Wen Lian was dragged out by her manager.

The audience watched with gnashed teeth; this segment was genuinely infuriating!

Following that, Wen Lian was suspended from work.
Tricked into shooting lingerie advertisements.
Leaving in anger.
Chased and harassed by the photographer.
Her good friend stepping in to rescue her.
Meeting A-Cai and learning about the dealer job.

The audience initially thought this was a story of someone accidentally losing their job and subsequently straying down the wrong path. Unexpectedly, the camera cut to A-Cai meeting up with the "photographer," and the audience suddenly understood:

Wen Lian had been targeted from the very beginning; this was a butch-slaughter scam!

Shang Shi thought about it even more thoroughly: perhaps even Liang Anna's photos being made into small promotional cards had been A-Cai's handiwork.

This script was meticulous!

What followed proceeded logically. Liang Anna, played by Wen Lian, followed A-Cai, illegally crossed the border, and arrived at the scam compound.

During this sequence, there was a shot right as Wen Lian was leaving the country.

Wen Lian sat in the car, turning her head slightly to look out the window, witnessing her own gigantic promotional poster being torn down—mirroring the real-life removal of Cheng Cheng's gigantic promotional posters.

In other cinemas, many haters who rushed to the premiere screening sighed at this moment:
Brother Wa still had a lot he couldn't let go of!
