"Bro Xu!" Li Yuqing walked up to Xu Taiping and smiled as she nodded.

"Sit down!" Xu Taiping said.

Li Yuqing took a seat opposite Xu Taiping, asking, "Bro Xu, didn't you just return to Jiang Yuan City a few days ago? Why are you here again?"

"The Chinese Martial Arts Association has something to do." Xu Taiping smiled, "That's why I came over for a few days. I came to find you for a drink."

"Tonight is the night of the European Cup. Basically, every bar in the city that can watch football has been filled up. Bro Xu, do you want to watch football?" Li Yuqing asked.

"I won't." Xu Taiping shook his head.

"Do you want to buy balls?" Li Yuqing asked.

"I won't buy it, but the items that I bet on will be controllable. Normal players wouldn't be able to play with the game." Xu Taiping laughed.

"I have some to buy. In the evening, Fragrance Nation and Wild Chicken Nation will win. The odds are only 114. However, this kind of money that can win easily doesn't matter at all!" Li Yuqing smiled.

Xu Taiping smiled and said, "Generally, the more stable a bet is, the more likely it is to be unexpected. "Come, drink."

"Alright!"

The two of them opened the beers on the table and drank while watching the ball.

Although Xu Taiping didn't watch the ball, this didn't stop him from watching the ball along with the crowd.

As the matches went on and on, Xu Taiping and Li Yuqing went on and on. Soon, the first half of the game ended and the dozen beers on the table were all finished.

"I'm not giving it a try. This team, I won the first half. Damn it, I actually got a draw!" Li Yuqing said angrily.

"Don't worry, there's still the second half, isn't there?" Xu Taiping laughed, "The football is 90 minutes, Perfume State definitely doesn't want a draw. After all, Wild Chicken Country's team is so weak, so Perfume Country will definitely increase their offense in the second half."

"Oh? "Then what Bro Xu means to say is: Perfume's second half is definitely going to score?" Li Yuqing asked.

"It still depends on Wild Chicken Nation's defense. If they defend well and Fragrance Nation is unable to attack for a long time, a loophole might leak out in the back. At that time, they might get an opportunity from Wild Chicken Nation!" Xu Taiping said.

"It's impossible. Wild Chicken Nation is too weak. They are ranked dozens of times higher than the world. Fragrance Nation is ranked top in the world, so how could Wild Chicken Nation seize this opportunity?" Li Yuqing shook her head.

Xu Taiping smiled. He did not know much about football, and his analysis was based on basic common sense. Therefore, he did not feel that what he said was reasonable, and it was normal for others to not believe him.

Time passed slowly.

Suddenly, the entire bar was filled with shouts.

"F * ck!"

"F * ck, what the hell is going on? How can a country of pheasants score? It's still at the last minute!"

Everyone was shouting in anger, and it could be seen that these people had all lost money.

Xu Taiping looked at Perfume Nation's 0: 1 score on the screen, and suddenly realized that his mouth was very accurate. The Wild Chicken Nation really caught a loophole of Perfume Nation in the last minute before the competition ended, and then scored a ball!

No wonder so many people like to watch football, because there isn't a complete absolute on the football field. Even the weakest team could win against a strong team.

Xu Taiping looked at Li Yuqing's unsightly expression and asked, "How much did you buy?"

"One hundred thousand yuan. Sigh, I originally planned to earn some money so that I could buy a better camera. I didn't expect that … With such a stable table, there was actually a problem! F * ck you! " Li Yuqing said angrily.

"Buying that big? A hundred thousand yuan, even if I win it would only be a profit of fourteen thousand yuan! " Xu Taiping said.

"This is equivalent to earning for nothing. Everyone thinks that Perfume Nation will win for sure!" Li Yuqing said.

"According to my point of view in business, if I were to place 100,000 credits at 10,000, I might as well use it to push down the price of a loser in a casino. At the very least, I still have a 100% and 50% chance of doubling. Xu Taiping shook his head.

"I reckon there'll be a lot of people jumping off the building tonight." Li Yuqing covered her forehead and said, "To think that they would lose a match that was 90% sure of the outcome, just how many people would be killed?"

"Drink!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"Sigh, drink, drink!" Li Yuqing sighed and continued drinking.

Xu Taiping could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the bar was a little gloomy, as if a lot of people had lost money, and not just that.

Thinking about it, it made sense. With 114 payout points, there was no point in buying a hundred. If you wanted to buy one, you would have to buy one for tens of thousands of dollars.

Li Yuqing's mood seemed to be affected as well. She stopped drinking after drinking a few bottles.

Xu Taiping didn't force Li Yuqing to shout. After settling the bill, he followed her out of the bar.

Not far from the bar, a group of people were gathered in front of a building, looking up at the top floor of the building.

"Fuck, someone jumped off the building!" Li Yuqing said excitedly while pointing at the rooftop.

Xu Taiping looked towards the roof of the building.

At the edge of the roof, there was a person sitting there.

The lights on the roof of the building were very dim, so many people could not clearly see that person's appearance. From his body, they could roughly tell that it was a woman.

Xu Taiping's eyesight was much better than that of an average person, so he could clearly see that person's face.

It was actually an acquaintance!

If Xu Taiping was not wrong, that person was Wu Xue!

Wu Xue?

Xu Taiping was surprised that Wu Xue wanted to jump off the building.

At this moment, more and more people gathered at the bottom floor of the building. Many people raised their heads to look up as they discussed amongst themselves.

"Are you still going to jump? If not, then don't waste your time!" Someone suddenly shouted loudly.

That person was standing right next to Xu Taiping. Xu Taiping didn't waste any more words. He raised his leg and kicked that person's body, sending that person flying.

"What are you doing?!" The man stood up excitedly and shouted to Xu Taiping.

"If you want to jump, then jump up. What are you grumbling about?" Xu Taiping asked with a darkened face.

That person was originally very aggressive. When he saw Xu Taiping's dark face, he felt a wave of cold air rise from beneath his feet and immediately shut his mouth.

"Call the police, hurry up and call the police!" someone shouted.

"It has already been reported to the police. The police will be here soon. Young man, don't be impulsive. Life is still beautiful!" someone shouted.

Xu Taiping raised his head to look up, his brow furrowed, and then said to Li Yuqing, "I'm going up to take a look."

"Go up and take a look?" Li Yuqing blanked out for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, Xu Taiping had already disappeared from his sight.

The wind was strong on the top floor of the building.

It was already autumn and the air felt cool and refreshing, but on the roof, the wind was a little chilly.

Xu Taiping walked out from the top floor and looked in front of him.

Not far away, a woman was sitting on the roof railing.

Although her back was facing Xu Taiping, her back was still very attractive.

Xu Taiping didn't hide anything as he walked towards that man.

That person heard footsteps and turned around to look. When she saw Xu Taiping, she was stunned for a moment. It seemed she didn't expect him to be here either.

"Don't come over here, I'll jump down if you come over. Don't worry about me." Wu Xue shouted excitedly.

"I'm not going to care about you, and I'm not going to save you. I'm just here to be a spectator." Xu Taiping smiled and walked to the fence that was about four or five meters away from Wu Xue. He looked down and said, "This place is pretty high, isn't it?"

Wu Xue was silent. Her eyes were a little red. It was unknown if it was because she had just cried or because she was too angry.

"If I were to jump down from such a high place, I would definitely die." Xu Taiping said as he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out, put it in his mouth and lit it up.

"Phew, it's cool here!" Xu Taiping said.

"Are you here to tease me? And make fun of me — what's the matter? " Wu Xue asked.

Xu Taiping looked at Wu Xue in shock and said, "I'm teasing you? Why do I tease you? You have no enmity with me, and you want to die right now, so why should I make fun of you? Am I that evil? "

"Then why did you come up?" Wu Xue asked.

"Actually, I haven't had a good look at it. I didn't know what it would look like if a person jumped off the roof and fell on the ground, so I wanted to get a closer look." Xu Taiping said with a smile while smoking.

Wu Xue looked at Xu Taiping, trying to find out some answers from his expression, but Xu Taiping's expression was cold, making her speechless.

"Why not?" Xu Taiping suddenly asked.

Wu Xue remained silent and did not speak.

"Let me guess. Not long after the football match ended, your face was slightly red, and you were obviously drinking. It's possible that you were drinking while watching the football match, so why did you jump off the building? Then the only explanation would be that I lost the bet, do you think I guessed right? " Xu Taiping said.

Wu Xue did not say anything. In fact, Xu Taiping was right. She had lost her bet, losing everything.

"From how you went to the bank a few days ago to get a loan, you can tell that your company is not in a good financial situation. Are you planning to use this European Cup to make a windfall and spend all your money? "How much was hit?" Xu Taiping asked curiously.

"All." Wu Xue said.

"All?" Xu Taiping was surprised for a moment, but then he smirked, "You don't gamble much, do you?"

"Never." Wu Xue said.

Only new people would want to make a fortune. Although it is possible to make a fortune with one blow, it is more likely that with one blow, all of this will happen and you will not leave any path of retreat. You only have one chance, if you lose, you won't even have the chance to make a comeback. Xu Taiping shook his head.

It was just as Xu Taiping said, she never gambles, but the company's recent situation was too bad. Someone told him that in the first competition of the European Cup, Perfume Country versus Wild Chicken Country was a competition for giving out money, so before the competition started, she took advantage of it to borrow money from everywhere, and then tonight, she would bet all her money on Perfume Country's win.

She didn't expect that she would lose her first bet in her entire life and lose it all.
