This collection of tiles was yet another Heavenly Hand for ine. With just two North Winds and a red tile, she could secure a win.
Most crucially, if she managed to draw a North Wind tile, she would be able to collect East, South, West, and North Wind tiles, leading her to victory with a big four!
Winning with a big four was one of the most significant multipliers!
If she could just get her hands on a North Wind, she would recover her two million dors!<fn2e38> Find the newest release on find?novel</fn2e38>
As these thoughts raced through her mind, ine felt an overwhelming urge to shout in excitement at the prospect of drawing a North Wind tile.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
She believed that North Wind tiles and red tiles were typically not valuable to most yers. As a result, average yers often discarded these tiles when they had them. So, even if she didn’t draw the tile herself, she was sure someone would eventually throw one away.
However, unbeknownst to her, the tiles in her possession were already a lost cause!
The North Wind and red tile she desperately needed were already held by Gianna. This meant that, like her previous Heavenly Hand, thebination of tiles she had was a dead-end, leaving her unable to win this game at all.
ine continued to wait for the North Wind and the red tile, but after many rounds, they still hadn’t shown up. After enduring a few more rounds, Linda drew a tile, flipped it over, and with a grin announced, “Oh! It seems I’ve drawn again! This time, I have another Concealed Hand! I win with a multiplier of forty-eight times!”
Gianna, noticing that Linda had drawn thest six tiles, quickly eximed, “Oh, Sister Linda! You’ve won with thest six tiles! I have three of them in my hand, which means you’ve won the Last Tile im!”
“Oh! It truly is the Last Tile im!”
Linda pped her hands in delight as she added, “Then, add another eight times. That makes it a multiplier of fifty-six times, equaling five hundred and sixty thousand dors!”
At that moment, ine felt a wave of dizziness wash over her!
With just over two hundred thousand dors left in her bank ount, how could she possibly pay Linda another five hundred and sixty thousand dors?
In her state of panic, ine pulled Hannah aside and whispered urgently, “Sister-inw, I have to confess, I don’t have that much money anymore. Can you lend me some?”
Hannah felt a surge of frustration, thinking ine had brought this on herself. Yet, she feigned concern and replied, “Sister-inw, I don’t have that much money either. You know how the Wilson family is…”
ine pressed on, “But didn’t you and brother-inw just look at buying a vi recently? Even an old vi would cost more than ten million dors! Couldn’t you lend me a few hundred thousand today?”
With a sigh, Hannah exined, “That money has all been taken by that olddy to patch up the holes in the Wilson Group!”
ine, increasingly anxious, eximed, “What should I do now? I can’t cover the losses, and I can’t keep ying like this! What can I do to turn things around?”
Just then, Linda interjected, “Sister ine, are you out of money? Do you have enough to settle the ount? If you’re not going to continue ying, please settle up first.”
Feeling the pressure, ine forced a smile and replied, “Why would I be out of money? I just didn’t bring enough with me today. Is it possible for me to owe you this small amount? I’ll settle the ount with you after we finish thesest eight rounds of mahjong.”
She was determined to find a way to win back her money today. If she didn’t keep ying, she’d lose over two million dors!
ine thought it would be easy to persuade Linda, especially since Linda was wealthy and often lost millions in these games. She assumed Linda wouldn’t be overly concerned about money.
To her surprise, Linda’s expression turned icy as she retorted sharply, “Sister ine, you can’t do this! Every mahjong game should settle after each win or loss! How can you expect to owe anyone money? When I lost to you, I paid up right away, so why try to dy your payment now that you’ve lost?”
Linda continued, “Moreover, how can you expect to keep ying with us when you can’t even settle your ount now? It would be one thing if you won, but what happens if you keep losing and refuse to pay us?”
ine’s face flushed red, leaving her speechless.
Seeing her reaction, Linda scoffed, “The only reason I invited you to y mahjong today is that Hannah told me you’re pretty good at it. If you’re not willing to pay to continue, please settle your ount with me first. Give me the five hundred and sixty thousand dors I won, and we’ll stop ying today!”
