THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION ANY SIMILARITIES ARE PURELY COINCIDENTAL
You and your husband have caused many casualties on Coral Isles.
I must punish you on behalf of the heavens today.
Since we began our career of deception,
we've never met a worthy rival.
Today, I want to see what the Coral Isles' Queen of Deception is capable of.
If you lose this round, you must do as you promised
and tell me where Dong Sihai is.
Let's see if you'll still be alive to hear news about my husband.
Ten decks of cards are up there.
They have a total of ten queens of hearts.
Whoever gets five of them first wins.
The one who loses has to jump out.
I've already got five queens of hearts.
Admit your defeat.
Look at your cards carefully first.
How could this happen?
Have you forgotten?
I'm the daughter of Long Tingguang, the King of Deception.
Fine.
I'll admit my defeat since I was willing to gamble.
Don't be rash! Give it to me.
Did I shoot and kill her?
What a tragedy that shocked the gambling scene.
We've reached a verdict
for the case of the Coral Isles' Queen of Deception, Luo Qifang,
settling the score privately with Guo Xiufeng.
According to the forensic doctor,
even if the victim had serious burns on her body,
the fatal blow
was from the handgun where Qifang's fingerprints were found.
The defendant is found guilty of murder based on the evidence presented.
Qifang!
I'll file an appeal and get you out!
Fei, it's futile.
It's God's will for us to be apart.
I don't believe in God's will. I don't believe it!
Fei.
You must let Xing grow up healthily.
Don't let him learn how to gamble.
Qifang.
Qifang.
Qifang.
According to the law of Coral Isles,
she is given the maximum penalty
of life imprisonment.
CORAL ISLES, EIGHT YEARS LATER

Thank you, everyone.
Building a charity hospital has always been my dream.

I want to thank all of you for your service in this hospital.
I also have a small request.
I hope that everyone can always smile
and show your love for others
in caring for the patients who are suffering from illnesses.
Thank you, everyone.
The King of Gamblers is really amiable and charming.
No wonder our hospital's muse is also captivated by him.
He's really admirable.
Don't tell me that the three of you are becoming boy crazy.
-We're just saying how you feel. -We're just saying how you feel.
Mr. Yan, thank you so much for attending the opening ceremony.
Thank you.
Can you give me a chip as a souvenir?
I made a bet with the nurses.
Please don't let me return empty-handed.
I'm begging you.
Besides, I'll gamble using your chip.
If I win, I'll also donate it to the charity like you.
The doctors and nurses in this hospital all admire you.
What if...
I'll give everyone one chip each
to thank them for working in this charity hospital.
Really?
Mr. Yan has promised to give everyone one chip each!
You're all welcome to play in my casino.
Remember, do more charity work if you win
to help those who are less fortunate.
Thank you.
Mr. Yan, thank you.
You're so nice and generous.
CORAL ISLAND HOSPITAL OPENING CEREMONY
He's gallant and charitable. He's the one and only in this world.
He's your ideal man.
He's the Charitable King of Gamblers.
Excuse me, are you Jiang Yexue?
-I am. -We're from the financial company.
On behalf of the credit card company, we're requesting for payment of your debt.
Credit card?
A hundred thousand?
Yexue, bless me. I'm all in.
I lost again.
-Jiang Haoqi! -Yexue.
Open the door.
Open the door!
Let me ask you.
Did you use my name to apply for a credit card,
then used it to gamble online?
It's a hundred thousand!
How can I pay for that?
-How? -Yexue, I'm making a bet!
Good thing I pressed enter.
Yexue, helped me shout for it. I bet a hundred thousand on number 36.
A hundred thousand?
Thirty-six!
So close. I lost two hundred thousand.
Yexue, what should we do?
-I'm going to kill you! Don't run! -Yexue!
It's two hundred thousand!
-How can I pay for that? -Killing me won't do you any good.
Yexue, I'll think of something.
Gambling is so bad.
9734, you have a visitor.
Fei.
Qifang.
What happened to the math contest that Xing joined yesterday?
Talk to him yourself.
Dad, Mom, I finally did it!
Look, it's the Olympic Mathematics Award.
Are you happy?
I'm the son the King and Queen of Gamblers.
I'm as good as you at math, mental arithmetic, and memorization.
Yes, that's what you call heredity.
Just like how my daughter is so beautiful because of me.
-Xiaotong, am I right? -Of course, Mom.
Auntie, how are you? I'll be able to visit you soon.
Mom, even if I still have to stay for my exams,
I'll ask Auntie to bring you my gift.
That's all. I'm going to celebrate now.
You should be happy
with our son's accomplishments.
First place in Chinese chess and abacus. National Mathematics Champion.
International Mathematical Award.
And now, the Olympic Mathematical Award.
Xing received all the awards that he wanted.
Didn't I tell you?
Xing won't disappoint you.
I have such a good son,
but I spent too little time with him.
Our fate as mother and son isn't good.
These are the last seven pieces of the puzzle.
When I've pieced these on,
we'll have a complete family photo.
Too bad this was just made from computer technology.
It seems like...
we won't have a chance to have a real family photo.
Qifang.
Don't be discouraged.
You'd surely get a chance to reduce your sentence and be released.
When the time comes,
our family can be reunited.
It has been almost eight years.
I really don't dare to dream about that.
I'm already so happy that you often come to visit me.
Come on.
Face card.
I waited for this one for so long.
You waited? Nonsense. Who doesn't want to get five Wealths and win?
You're not moving? I'll scream and say you touched me.
You're crazy. Look at yourself. Even your husband won't touch you.
Hey, you can't put money in.
-You can't. -I already put the money in.
Turn.
Wealths!
I'm rich!
I won the jackpot! I'm rich!
Hey, I pressed it.
Who cares? It's mine!
Check the recording.
Let's see who put the money in.
Yes, Mr. Jiang.
Rewind and zoom it in.
Stop.
Who's responsible for the slot machines in that area?
It's Bing. He left just now, over.
-Just now, we... -Hey, stop fighting!
Stop it!
I was the one who put the money in, but he says the jackpot is his.
Did anyone see it?
Right, I didn't see it.
Mr. Shiyi, Ms. Meili.
Stop making a fuss. We have CCTV.
We can check who put the money in.
So what if you see it?
Right, I got to this machine first.
My boss asked me to come and take this guest to claim the prize.
Did you hear that?
If you want to win the jackpot, you must be quick.
Now, he benefits because of you.
Are you happy now?
I haven't even blamed you yet.
You're the reason my money turned into nothing.
Why do you need to argue?
Just use other slot machines.
Who's in the mood to play now?
