Couldn’t Be Refused

"It's not that big. I just won a few dozen taels, and someone wants to bet with me. Ten rounds determine the winner, and the silver doubles. I let him play a few rounds, and in the end, he turned the tables. He couldn't afford to lose, so he got someone to secretly follow me. Last night, he planned to make a move on me, but for some reason, he didn't make a move. This morning, I went to exchange for silver and buy things. His people followed me all the way, planning to kill me in the wilderness. In the end, I escaped." Gu Shouxin gave a simple explanation.

"Dad, in the future, let's do business to earn money. Don't gamble. Gambling is bad," Gu Nian advised.

"Yes, in business, we'll provide for you in the early stages. When you're successful later on, you'll be our protector!" Cai Xiaolian also said.
