4531 The Other Side 500
What surprised Youyou, who initially thought that Baby Chu was just putting on a show, was that the boy was so ruthless when it came to Blackjack.
Throughout the few rounds of wins and losses, Youyou did not take advantage of Baby Chu. However, now that he had said those rather harsh words, Youyou was indignant and refused to be defeated. The boy had never played Blackjack before, but he understood how it worked, following Baby Chu’s explanation.
Baby Chu relied on his experience while Youyou relied on his IQ.
Youyou was a very smart boy and a fast learner. Blackjack was not a difficult game. It was 80% luck and 20% courage. The most important thing was to be able to “throw caution to the wind”.
Initially, Baby Chu was quite pleased with himself after gaining some advantage over Youyou. However, the latter’s luck increased with the third and fourth rounds. In addition, he became more familiar with the rules, so Baby Chu lost four games in a row.
“Howl!!” Baby Chu collapsed on the table and started to lose his temper. “How is that possible?! You scored exactly 21 points twice in a row! Are you cheating?”
“Gu Chengze, admit defeat.” Youyou did not care if he was convinced or not. Baby Chu was the one who suggested playing Blackjack, and now he was doubting the integrity of the other players?
“You cheated!”
“Just because I won? What kind of logic is that? Moreover, do you think I can so ill-afford to lose a few thousand yuan that I have to cheat?”
Youyou was eloquent, so it would not do Baby Chu any good to quarrel with him.
Gu Jinglian and Yun Shishi stood at the door, their eyelids twitching.
Youyou had just shuffled the cards when out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of his mother and Gu Jinglian standing at the door. He got such a fright that he immediately tossed the cards aside.
“Mommy!” He completely ignored the man beside her.
Gu Jinglian was used to being ignored by the boy.
Baby Chu turned around in confusion when he saw Youyou’s reaction, but Gu Jinglian had already strode to his side and picked him up by the ear.
“Ooooh wah wah wah… Dad!”
“You dare call me Dad! I have no such son.”
“Woo…”
“Playing Blackjack and losing the game, utter embarrassment!”
“…”
Yun Shishi was speechless.
Initially, she thought that the man had stormed over to teach the boy a lesson about gambling. In the end, it was because of this. However, no matter how she looked at it, she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly was wrong with this scenario.
After all, the man had been hanging out at casinos since he was young and could not be more indifferent to gambling. To him, there was no harm in his son playing cards, only, the boy had lost too badly.
Baby Chu said aggrievedly, “What? It’s not like I want to lose to him? He’s lucky, and you’re blaming me?”
“Card luck is also a part of capability.”
Baby Chu started to sell his father out. “If you have the ability, come and have a go with Youyou! It won’t be too late for you to make sarcastic remarks after defeating him! Hmph, I think you definitely won’t be able to beat him. His luck is too good!”
???
What sort of son was this? Pushing his own father into a pit of fire? Asking him to play Blackjack with a kid who was barely a teenager?
It would not look good whether he won or lost! If he won, people would only say that he, an adult, was bullying a child. If he lost, it would be even more embarrassing.
However, if he did not play with the boy, it would make him look guilty!
The man gritted his teeth in hatred.
Why did he have such a stupid son?
When Youyou saw this, he also began to play it up. “If you’re not convinced, why don’t you play against me, on Gu Chengze’s behalf?”
“…”
The man glared at him coldly.
