You Really Did Have Some Foresight!
Only the younger brother said, "Father, Mother, I think we should treat our sister well. She has been incredibly kind to our family, and we can't forget her kindness."
"Slap..." He was slapped across the face.
His father said:
"I carried your sister back from the edge of the field, what debt could I possibly owe her?"
If I hadn't raised her, she would have starved to death long ago. She owes our family a debt.
Zhiyue really cried; she never expected her family to think that way.
Zhichun asked, "So now do you think there's still any need to meet?"
Zhiyue shook her head and said, "No need. I just didn't expect this family to be like this."
After her brothers and sisters left, Zhiyue said, "Hey! Husband, if you hadn't stolen this little girl back then, our family wouldn't be living such a good life."
Zhiyue's father laughed heartily:
"When I went to the city on business, I saw this little girl sitting in a carriage. There was no one else in the carriage at the time."
I reacted quickly and scooped her up in my arms.
That girl was just too beautiful; I never expected her to end up in the palace.
Zhiyue laughed and said, "Oh my! You have such excellent taste."
Zhiyue and Zhichun were both dumbfounded. It turned out that Zhiyue hadn't been abandoned, but had been brought back by Zhiyue father.
Once they were all asleep, Zhichun looked at Zhiyue and said, "How was it? Don't you feel that everything you did, besides moving yourself, had no real meaning?"
Zhiyue wiped away her tears and said:
"Zhichun, do you think I'm pretty stupid?"
I was utterly loyal to Princess Jianing, yet she actually considered me a traitor.
I gave all the money I could save to my family, only to find out that I had been tricked by them.
All I did was make money for them. My whole life has truly become a joke.
Zhichun comforted him:
"Hmm, it does sound like a joke, but thankfully, our master doesn't mind!"
Would you be willing to come and serve our master?
I was in a bit of a rush today, which is why I'm telling you this.
"Since we're all leaving tomorrow, I'm still a little worried about leaving you alone with Princess Jianing."
Zhiyue nodded and asked, "Are you planning to leave tomorrow?"
Zhichun snorted and said, "That's right! We're already at the border, and I still have to put up with her nonsense! It's so annoying all day long."
Zhiyue smiled and said, "Alright, I'll leave with you too, but didn't we sign a contract of servitude before?"
"So what? We got those indentures back a long time ago. Alright, let's go!"
Zhiyue glanced at the house and then left with Zhichun.
Zhichun led her to the gambling den, where they saw Zhou Wanwan strolling around. "Cheng Chao, you've managed this gambling den quite well! It's very successful."
This gambling den is absolutely teeming with beautiful women.
Moreover, all of these beautiful women were dressed in exotic clothing.
They stood in front of the gambling table; all of these people were dealers.
Cheng Chao said:
"Without my master's guidance, I absolutely could not have done this."
We currently have over 500 croupiers here.
Moreover, we have a total of six floors, and each floor is different.
Although it was night, the gambling den was brightly lit.
Just as Cheng Chao was about to continue his introduction, Xie Cheng'en walked in with a group of wealthy businessmen.
Zhou Wanwan waved to them and said, "Xie Cheng'en, Young Master Xie, we've met again!"
Xie Cheng'en's lips twitched. "It's you again? Zhou Wanwan, were you following me?"
Zhou Wanwan looked at him and asked, "Why were you following me?"
Xie Cheng'en said speechlessly, "Of course you think I'm exceptionally good!"
Zhou Wanwan almost threw up. "It really is good. You guys are here to gamble too? I just came to watch. Someone like me would probably have a hard time winning at gambling."
Zhao Rui, standing nearby, remarked, "You were quite prescient! What are you doing at such a young age coming to a casino?"
The border merchants sneered, "A child as young as you should be at home nursing. What are you doing here?"
"You don't actually gamble, do you? Do you think you'll always be this lucky?"
They won our money last time, they should at least give it back, right?
Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "You want to gamble with me?"
Zhao Rui looked at her and said, "If you're not gambling, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Wanwan looked at Xie Cheng'en and asked, "What about you guys?"
Xie Cheng'en chuckled and said:
"Let's gamble! It's not like I'm broke."
Besides, I've invited the King of Gamblers, ranked 69th on the Earth Ranking. Do you think I'm afraid of you?
"That's him! He's been a dominant force in the gambling world for over a decade, and rumors say he's never lost a single game since he entered the fray."
"Whether it's dice, dominoes, or cards, once someone gets involved in gambling, the outcome is already decided the moment they sit down at the table."
Countless wealthy tycoons and powerful figures from the underworld, brimming with confidence, gambled against him, only to end up losing everything.
The King of Gamblers, ranked 69th on the Earth Ranking, stepped forward and coldly looked at Zhou Wanwan, saying:
"Is a six-year-old child really worth my personal intervention?"
Isn't this a bit too childish?
Xie Cheng'en smiled faintly and said, "This isn't an ordinary child; she's incredibly wealthy!"
Zhou Wanwan waved her hand and said, "What money? I don't have any money at all."
Xie Cheng'en smiled faintly and said:
"Don't be modest. You used to own many shops and estates in the capital."
"It's just that you're down on your luck now; I just don't know if you can come up with the gambling funds."
Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "I can barely scrape together the money! But I can provide the betting funds, so you guys better not be unable to come up with them later."
Everyone around burst into laughter. "I'm dying of laughter! This child is so serious, I thought she was from a rich family!"
"How can she be so boastful? If she were really from a wealthy family, would she come to the border?"
Xie Cheng'en nodded and said:
"It's true that I lost all my businesses in the capital, which is why I came to the border to make a living."
Zhou Wanwan, am I right?
Zhou Wanwan's assets in Beijing have been largely divided up. According to their understanding, all the houses, shops Hotan under Zhou Wanwan's name have been taken away.
Zhou Wanwan nodded helplessly and said, "Yes, yes, you're right, I'm very poor right now."
Xie Cheng'en said:
"I knew it! How could you possibly be so rich? If you were that rich, why would you come to the border?"
Making money at the border isn't easy either; don't think you can get away with just having tricks.
Zhou Wanwan couldn't be bothered with him. Now, everyone in the Upper Capital probably thought Zhou Wanwan was dirt poor.
She found a gambling table and started playing. After more than ten rounds, she lost several thousand taels of silver.
The people around them laughed even harder. Zhao Rui said, "Zhou Wanwan, your luck is really bad."
