After dinner, Chen Mingmo indeed called Gu Jiusi to the study room.

Gu Jiusi thought he would ask Shu Hua about it, but Chen Mingmo said another thing.

"In a few days, Mu Bai will take you to a card game. If you want to make him lose, you are the daughter of the former gambling king, so you should be able to do it, right?"

When Gu Jiusi heard the word "Gambling King", her body suddenly trembled, and she lost her composure for only a moment, and she quickly returned to peace.

The so-called card game is not an ordinary card game. Four people sit together, and whoever wins the position is on which side, the winner can arrange their own people to sit in that position. Over the years, Gu Jiusi has followed Chen Mubai to witness the promotion and fall of many people in the card game. The purpose of taking her there is to ensure that Chen Mubai can win. Few people know that Gu Jiusi plays well. She never shows off. Every time she sits next to Chen Mubai, she acts as a female companion, and reminds Chen Mubai calmly at critical moments. The two have a very tacit understanding at the card table.

No one knew that she was the daughter of the famous gambling king back then.

In fact, Chen Mubai's cards are also good. He plays cards very steadily. The poker table can best test his personality. He is neither humble nor arrogant, not anxious, and very calm, but he is not ambiguous when it comes to taking action.

In other aspects, Gu Jiusi may not be as good as Gu Jiusi's opponent, but no one on the card table was Gu Jiusi's opponent. She almost knew what cards each of the three people on the opposite side had, what should they play, and what would happen if they played different cards. This was also the result of her father training her since childhood.

Finally, she is useful to Chen Mubai and Chen Mingmo. If she is useful, she will not be given up. She is safe.

But... Gu Jiusi didn't understand a little.

Chen Mingmo probably felt Gu Jiusi’s confusion, “If you want to ask, ask whatever you want.”

Gu Jiusi shook his head with his eyes down.

Chen Mingmo seemed to be in a good mood and continued to ask, "Do you don't understand why I have to put on my own son?"

Gu Jiusi wandered for a while and asked, "I don't understand. Mr. Mu is the successor you value. Why do you always make him stagnate at critical moments?"

Chen Mingmo suddenly laughed, "You will understand."

Until Gu Jiusi left the study, Chen Mingmo did not mention Shu Hua's matter. I don't know if he was very relieved of Gu Jiusi and did not need to ask about it at all, or if he had completely given up on Gu Jiusi and found another method. Perhaps this is Chen Mingmo's most cleverness. The more he didn't mention it, the more frightened the other party would be and the sooner he would do it.

Gu Jiusi closed her eyebrows and came out of the study room, but she had a vague premonition in her heart, but she couldn't say what was wrong.

This is a trivial matter. Chen Mingmo had no need to ask her in person, just call her and say it. He specifically asked her to go to the study room for this?

When Gu Jiusi walked out and came back to his senses, he realized that it had started to snow at some point. The ground had already fallen, and there was still a tendency to fall and heavier.

She didn't know where Chen Mubai had gone, and she didn't plan to go back tonight, so she could only follow the path to look for it.

The royal palace garden is very big, and Gu Jiusi has a poor sense of direction. She was confused when she walked around the garden. She seemed to see something when she walked past a rockery. She quickly took a step back and hid behind the rockery.

I am really afraid of anything I come to.

Chen Mubai was smiling and saying something to Meng Lai, and Chen Jingkang stood in a place not far away from them and was transparent.

Chen Mubai's delicate eyebrows and eyes were particularly soft under the dim light, and even his smile was warm. For a moment, Gu Jiusi felt that Chen Mubai was really in love with Meng Lai at first sight.

"This stepmother and stepson scene has a really heavy taste, right?"

Gu Jiusi was just thinking about it and a male voice suddenly rang in his ears, and the hot heat sprayed on her ears. The strange and dangerous masculine aura scared her, and she suddenly avoided and turned to look.

Unexpectedly, Chen Muyun continued to come up and squinted his eyes and looked at her up and down, "Gu Jiusi, when you first came to the Chen family, you were still a yellow-haired girl. The older you grew, the more you tasted."

While speaking, he looked at Gu Jiusi's chest. He seemed to be able to see something through the thick winter clothes. His intention was obvious. There were so many women around him who threw themselves into his arms. Women were too proactive and made people feel bored over time. Gu Jiusi's coldness and charmingness became more and more interested. The more he could not get it, the more aroused the man's desire to conquer.

Gu Jiusi looked elsewhere with a cold face, "Please respect yourself, please."

Chen Muyun didn't care about Gu Jiusi's attitude at all, and laughed, "The word "self-respect" does not exist in the Chen family at all. Just say, "Old man, how many women have he had in his life? He has gotten a little wife when he is old, and there are a few uncles and uncles. Which one is not living in a woman's arms? If you don't say it far away, just say it now, look!"

After saying that, he signaled Gu Jiusi to look behind him.

Perhaps it was snowing and Meng Lai slipped without standing firmly. Chen Mubai quickly took action to support her, and she leaned in Chen Mubai's arms. From this perspective, it was really ambiguous and warm.

Chen Mubai chose the most appropriate time to push Meng Lai away calmly, and gave a message that seemed concerned, "Be careful."

Meng Lai immediately blushed and walked away with a shy look on his face. His steps were in a hurry. Perhaps Chen Mubai really disturbed Chunxin.

As soon as Meng Lai left the garden, Chen Mubai smiled, took off his coat, threw it at Chen Jingkang not far away, pinched out a handkerchief and wiped the hand that had just touched Meng Lai, and finally stuffed the handkerchief into the trash can next to him. Chen Jingkang held the coat and walked away.

Gu Jiusi felt that this man's obsession with cleanliness had reached a point where he was almost perverted and hopeless.

At the same time, I felt that the idea of ​​"love at first sight" just now was ridiculous. Her Taoist practice was shallow. Why did she forget that Chen Mubai was not sincere. All he did was to take revenge on Chen Mingmo. He always took revenge on Chen Mingmo. No one who could be used would be let go, and any means could be used.

Perhaps he was also a chess piece that he attacked Chen Mingmo.

"Have you seen enough? Come out after you see enough!" Chen Mubai spoke with his back to the rockery.

Gu Jiusi sighed and could only walk out from behind the rockery with his teeth.

Chen Muyun was not embarrassed at all about being caught. He walked out carelessly, clapping his hands and applauded, "Actually, I have always doubted whether you are the old man's son, but now I believe that even the woman I like is the same, but he is really a biological son!"

The last few words were sarcastic and sounded particularly awkward.

Chen Mubai Qingjun's delicate eyebrows and eyes were full of ridicule and disdain, and he didn't even look at Chen Muyun.

Chen Muyun seemed to be inadvertently asked, "Hey, third brother, do you think Meng Lai looks very much like a person?"

Unexpectedly, Chen Mubai suddenly turned cold and looked at him.

Chen Muyun didn't smell the smell of gunpowder in the air at all and continued to tease her, "I didn't say who she looks like, why are you excited?"

Chen Mubai looked as usual, and looked at him lightly, unable to hear any turbulence in his voice. "Chen Muyun, don't think that if the Dong family supports you, you will rely on others' power. This family is not your turn to speak!"

Chen Muyun was annoyed, "It's not your turn to speak, the illegitimate son! No matter how I say it, they are the legitimate eldest masters of the Chen family. My mother is Mrs. Chen. What is your mother? She can't even enter the Chen family's door until she dies!"

Gu Jiusi was shocked. She didn't know who Chen Muyun was nudging Meng Lai, which would make Chen Mubai, who was so elegant, instantly ruin his achievements.

Chen Jingkang had already returned at some point, holding a new coat in his arms. He had already figured out Chen Mubai's temper and did not go up to persuade him to fight. He just quietly put the coat on Chen Mubai.

The ending was as they expected, and Chen Muyun was not Chen Mubai's opponent.

Chen Mubai laughed furiously, "Mrs. Chen probably has only this status left. Mrs. Chen is afraid that she will die of freezing on the bed as cold as an ice cellar. The old man doesn't want to look at her until he dies."

"You!" Before Chen Muyun could say anything, Chen Mubai had already turned around, "Ah, sorry, I forgot that the eldest young master is a waste and cannot be provoked, and he will break it as soon as he touches it."

"Chen Mubai!" Chen Muyun's roar passed through the fine snowflakes and stimulated everyone's eardrums, and Chen Mubai just rubbed his ears and walked away as if he hadn't heard of it.

Gu Jiusi and Chen Jingkang followed Chen Mubai for a while, and Chen Jingkang tried to ask, "Young Master, will you return tonight?"

Chen Mubai turned his back to them, his voice calm and calm, "I won't go back, you go and rest first. Gu Jiusi stayed, I have something to tell you."

Chen Jingkang gave Gu Jiusi a look of self-seeking blessings and left the fork in the road.

Chen Mubai's resentment was still there, and he turned around to look at Gu Jiusi, with a kind of impulse momentum, but there was a smile on his lips, "What? You don't look down on Chen Mingmo and I, and you are ready to climb Chen Muyun?"

Gu Jiusi frowned gently, and his words were always unpleasant.

He was wearing a wool coat with a fur collar, and only a thin black V-neck cashmere sweater inside. He looked extremely delicate and elegant in the moisture of the snowy night. His dark and deep eyes reflected flying snowflakes, which were fascinating, but his words instantly turned into ice skates and flew towards you.

Chen Mubai stared at her for a while, "Gu Jiusi, why are you following Chen Mingmo for? For money, for power, or something else?"

Gu Jiusi looked up at the flying snow in the sky under the orange light and replied casually, "Why don't I worry about it?"

"Gu Jiusi!" He grabbed her arm, and the dark and narrow eyes were full of frost at the moment, as if it was about to splash out along the slightly raised end of his eyes.

The force on his arm became stronger and stronger, and Gu Jiusi couldn't help but exclaim, "Chen Mubai..."
