Over there, Gu Anxi went to take a look and discovered that her young uncle had given up half of the territory she had won!
She complained about him relentlessly, then jumped in herself and ruthlessly won it all back, twice over. The elders present couldn’t help but shake their heads. Who would dare play cards with her in the future?
Except for King Jingyao, that walking moneybag!
When it was over, the little fairy happily pocketed her winnings and headed ho. In the car, she counted the zeros on the checks. "Uncle, we have the money for our child’s milk powder now."
Bo Xichen fastened his seatbelt, turned his head, and asked, "We have the milk powder money, so when are we preparing for the child?"
Instantly, her face turned slightly red. It took her a while before she stamred, "Um, how do we prepare?"
He smiled without saying anything and started the car.
The car sped along quite quickly. By the ti they returned to Si Garden, she understood...
「The next morning.」
Old Master Bo rushed over. Bo Xichen had already gone to work, so Old Master Bo waited anxiously outside, frequently peeking in to see if the ’young brat’ had erged.
He waited like this until mid-morning before Gu Anxi finally stretched lazily and ca out of the bedroom. As soon as she appeared, the old master hurried over. "I heard you won money?"
Gu Anxi sat on the sofa. Feeling hungry, she grabbed a piece of fruit to munch on while nodding. "Yes, I won quite a bit again."
Old Master Bo excitedly rubbed his hands together. "So, any secrets to your success?"
"Secrets?" Gu Anxi’s eyes darted around. "There are, but you’ll have to pay so tuition fees."
Old Master Bo nodded eagerly. "Of course, of course."
He quickly added, "It’s not just . Old Wang and Old Lin want to learn too."
Gu Anxi almost choked on her fruit. Good grief, was he planning to open a university for seniors or so kind of training course?
However, they were all wealthy old n!
She took a large bite of her fruit and said with a smile, "Alright! It’s very easy to learn. I can teach you in no ti."
Old Master Bo couldn’t wait any longer. He dragged her to a quiet spot in Si Garden where Old Mr. Wang and Old Lin were already waiting. With the two of them, they had a full table.
The card table was already set up.
Gu Anxi glanced around, then said slowly, "Mother Bo will scold us if she finds out."
After saying this, she made a show of intending to leave.
Old Lin called her back, speaking with great authority, "If that girl Lin Yun dares to say a harsh word to you, I’ll give her a piece of my mind."
With that, he personally ca over and pulled the little fairy to sit down. "Dearie, your card-playing skills are simply divine. The three of us want to learn. We happen to be free today, and no one else will co here. We’ll break for als. What do you think?"
What did she think? Of course, it was perfect!
Gu Anxi grinned, showing her pearly white teeth, settled her long limbs comfortably, and then announced the stakes. They were playing for quite a lot.
The three old n felt a little pained by the cost. Wasn’t this tuition fee a bit too expensive?
But thinking about how much face they would gain once they learned the skill, they gritted their teeth and played on...
By noon, although they had lost a fair bit, their spirits were high. They secretly went out for a al together and then arranged to continue in the afternoon. The four of them played with such intensity that they lost track of ti. However, by four in the afternoon, the three old n started to feel that sothing was amiss.
The young brat did indeed teach them, but they didn’t understand a single word of the nurical sequences and thods she ntioned. They just kept losing money to her...
Had they made a mistake sowhere?
The little fairy saw their old eyes wide with disbelief and their pained expressions as they reluctantly paid up. She coughed lightly. "If you can’t afford to play, then don’t."
All three were rich old n. Though their hearts ached, they took out more money and continued to diligently practice their skills.
Permutations, combinations...
Finally, they played for too long. By four o’clock, Old Mr. Wang had missed his dication ti, and his wife ca looking for him. Only then were they discovered...
The matter was rather serious.
Old Master Bo, who had instigated the ga, was given a harsh dressing-down. Old Lin, who was usually so arrogant, was berated by his daughter, Mother Bo, until he couldn’t even lift his head. Old Mr. Wang, who was naturally a bit of a whiner, actually got off easily by acting pitifully and was then led ho by his wife and son.
Old Master Bo and Old Lin looked on with envy and jealousy—
Damn, it’s great to have a wife!
The remaining three—Old Master Bo, Old Lin, and the little fairy—stood in a row, awaiting their fate...
King Jingyao, after settling his disappointing father, ca over to watch the commotion. Bo Xichen had also been called back by Mother Bo to deal with the little brat. And then there was Bo Nianyao, who had a splitting headache over the whole affair.
The elders in the family showed no self-respect and didn’t take care of themselves, and this young one was so greedy for money that she actually gambled with them for an entire day. How could this be tolerated?
The little fairy stood there, also receiving a verbal barrage from Mother Bo. When Bo Xichen returned, Mother Bo directly told her son to take his wife away, saying righteously, "Xichen, Anxi is now your responsibility to discipline."
Old Master Bo and Old Lin exchanged a look, both thinking resentfully, On what grounds?
