Chapter 2470 Why Do I Lose All the Time?
Because it was the New Year festival, except for Gu Man who was pregnant, everyone drank a little, including Tang Haifeng.
Tang Haifeng was old and shouldn’t drink, but he was healthy, so it wouldn’t be a problem if he had a few cups.
Even if he really felt uncomfortable, Gu Ning could help him. They had complete confidence in the effect of Gu Ning’s medicine, since all of the members of the Tang family stayed in good health due to her power crystals.
Gu Ning left a bottle of power crystals in the Tang family’s house, but they wouldn’t take the pills every day. Normally, they would put a power crystal into the soup and would share it to keep themselves strong.
Otherwise, their bodies wouldn’t be able to absorb the magical power and it might harm them.
If they had a minor disease like a cold, there was no need for them to take the power crystal. They could just take medicines produced by Colaine instead. There was also magical power in them after all, and they had no harmful side effects.
Only when they suffered from serious diseases would they directly take power crystals.
That New Year festival, Leng Shaoting took Jing Yunyao back to the Leng family’s house while Shangguan Yang, Jiang Liluo, and Si Jin stayed in the siheyuan.
Leng Shaoting had invited them to celebrate the festival with the Leng family, but Shangguan Yang felt it might be bothersome if so many of them went. They might also be nervous, so he preferred to stay in the siheyuan. However, if Shangguan Yang was alone, he would have gone with Leng Shaoting.
SO
Therefore, Leng Shaoting didn’t insist. They could share a meal with them the next morning, and they would go to visit the Tang family in City B together.
Xin Bei celebrated the festival with the Cao family this year.
Because Xin Bei didn’t have parents or his own home, the Cao family told him to stay in their house if they felt lonely in the future.
“Do you need some soup to get rid of the effect of the alcohol?” asked Jiang Lihua after they finished the meal.
Although none of them had drunk a lot, they were a little drunk, so in case they were uncomfortable, Jiang Lihua asked that question.
“No need, if we get rid of the effect of the alcohol, it’ll be meaningless to have drunk together earlier,” said Tang Yunhang. They drank to celebrate the New Year festival, and they didn’t want to ruin the atmosphere.
“Alright!” Since Tang Yunhang said that Jiang Lihua didn’t continue, anyway, she actually agreed with him.
“Let’s play cards now!” Tang Jiakai said to Tang Jiayang and Gu Ning.
The Tang family had no interest in gambling, but they gambled for fun when they were free.
“Sure, but don’t cry if you lose later,” said Gu Ning, but she wouldn’t use her Jade Eyes when she played with her family.
Upon hearing that, Tang Jiakai suddenly realized that Gu Ning was extremely talented at gambling. “Can’t you be nice to me?” He looked upset.
“It’s gambling! It won’t be fun if Ningning deliberately lets you win. You can’t take advantage of her.” Tang Haifeng rolled his eyes at Tang Jiakai. He thought it would be unfair if Gu Ning was forced to let Tang Jiakai win.
“Ningning is too talented. If I play with her, I will never win,” said Tang Jiakai and felt aggrieved. Given Gu Ning’s abilities, it was impossible for him to take advantage of her. He had witnessed how Gu Ning defeated her competition in the games. It was crazy!
Tang Jiayang had heard about it from Tang Jiakai, and he also believed it, but he wasn’t afraid of playing with Gu Ning. They were family after all, so he didn’t care about the result.
“Come on, I’m not as talented as you think!” Gu Ning felt a little embarrassed and rubbed her nose. If she didn’t use her Jade Eyes, she would be much less skilled. However, she couldn’t tell them that she had a super power.
“If you can’t afford to lose, you shouldn’t take part in the game. If we’re going to gamble, everyone should do his or her best,” said Tang Haifeng.
“Who said I can’t afford to lose?” Tang Jiakai retorted. He was unwilling to be regarded as a coward.

“Let’s gamble now! Everyone should do his or her best!” said Tang Jiakai. Anyway, it wasn’t embarrassing if he lost to Gu Ning.
After that, Tang Jiakai, Tang Jiayang and Gu Ning began to play cards.
Gu Ning didn’t use her Jade Eyes, so she didn’t win every time, but she had good luck, and won many times.
Tang Jiayang didn’t lose a lot. Tang Jiakai, however, lost a lot of money. They didn’t bet much money, and the bet was several yuan in each round, but Tang Jiakai still lost over three hundred yuan after playing for an hour.
“Why do I lose all the time?” Tang Jiakai was unhappy. He thought that Tang Jiayang would also lose like him, but he was disappointed. He was the only one who never won once, so he lost his balance.
“You have bad luck and skills,” said Tang Jiayang
“How is it possible!” Tang Jiakai snorted, but it was true that he had bad luck and because he rarely played cards, he wasn’t good at it.
“Ningning has very good luck and skills,” said Tang Haifeng as he enjoyed watching them playing cards.
Although Gu Ning won most of the time, Tang Haifeng frowned every time she lost. When she won, Tang Haifeng’s eyes lit up at once. Obviously, he didn’t want her to lose.
“Grandpa, it’s not fair. I noticed that your eyes lit up when Ningning won, but you frowned when she lost. Did you expect us to lose?” Tang Jiakai complained, even though he wasn’t really angry. “If you can, win once! If you’re as skilled as Ningning, my eyes will also light up for you,” said Tang Haifeng. Hearing that, Tang Jiakai didn’t know what to say. He clearly knew that he was hardly comparable to Gu Ning.
After they played for another half an hour, Tang Jiayang lost some money too, but Tang Jiakai still couldn’t win once. It consumed his patience so he decided to quit.
It wasn’t about the money, he just disliked losing all the time.
After 12 am, they received many messages of good wishes. Leng Shaoting also called Gu Ning and wished her all the best.
Because it was the New Year festival, Leng Shaoting understood that Gu Ning would receive countless calls, so he didn’t talk to her for long, but he let her know that they would come to visit the Tang family tomorrow afternoon.
Gu Ning’s phone didn’t become quiet again until 1 am. After that, she went to bed.
