Chapter 301 I've been set up

"Exactly! Gu Da, let me tell you, this is amazing! I guarantee you've never seen anything like it before! Once you do, you won't be able to eat or sleep! You'll be thinking about this 'amazing thing' all the time!"

Gu Qingming's heart skipped a beat, and he frowned, saying, "What you're saying sends a chill down my spine. Could it be from inhaling that stuff?"

The man hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, how could that be! We wouldn't have that kind of money! Don't worry, it won't happen! Come on, let's play a couple of rounds!"

Gu Qingming was pulled to the table. While the other person was shuffling the cards, he turned his pockets inside out and took out ten yuan: "Let me make this clear first, I can't play for big stakes, I don't have any money, and I don't manage the money at home. I'll play for small stakes, so I'll play two rounds. What do you guys think?!"

Everyone in the room: "..."

"It's okay! We won't go big! Let's just play small! Just for fun!"

"Yeah, yeah! But seriously, how come you, a grown man, have no money on you? Did you give it all to your tigress at home?!"

"Brother, you really came to the right place tonight! Let me tell you, I can take all the money in my house! I can take it wherever I want, and that woman won't dare utter a sound! We're the masters of this house! What are we afraid of her for?"

Gu Qingming smiled and said, "My mother takes care of all the money in my family; my wife doesn't get any."

Everyone: "..."

"Let's play cards! Come on! The cards are shuffled!" Li Chengda quickly changed the subject.

After playing two rounds, Gu Qingming won both. Although it was only one or two yuan, and the way those people fed him cards was very blatant, since they let him win, he reluctantly accepted it as his appearance fee for the night.

Seeing that two rounds had already been played and the "good thing" had not yet happened, Gu Qingming pretended to yawn.

She stood up: "I can't go on anymore, I'm too sleepy. You guys keep playing, I'm going back now!"

Seeing that he really wanted to go back, Li Chengda turned to look at the person next to him, who nodded and walked towards the back door.

Li Chengda pulled Gu Qingming back: "Good news has come! Don't rush off, take a look first!"

Gu Qingming saw that they were all looking towards the back door, his face full of lewd smiles, and the eyes of several old men in the village were even shining!

Gu Qingming also looked towards the back door.

The man walked to the back door, opened it, and found a small room inside. The light was on, and it was unclear what he did inside. A minute later, several scantily clad women followed him.

Gu Qingming: "!!!!" What the hell?! Could it be what he's thinking?!

Seeing that Gu Qingming was staring blankly, Li Chengda nudged a group of people with his arm and gestured for them to look at Gu Qingming.

The man glanced at Gu Qingming and curled his lip in disdain.

"Gu Qingming! Boss Gu! Are you in there! Gu Qingming!" A woman's voice came from outside the door. Li Chengda frowned, waved his hand, and the women retreated back into the house through the back door.

The others immediately sat down at the table and started playing, each taking a few cards.

The scene returns to Gu Yin.

Seeing Gu Qingming and the villagers walking towards the playground, she quietly followed them.

When they arrived at the playground and saw them pushing the room specifically used for playing cards, Gu Yin frowned.

"Coming here to play cards in the middle of the night?"

Seeing the door close, Gu Yin followed.

Arriving at the door, Gu Yin approached the entrance. There was no sound from inside; the door was quite sturdy.

"001, what's inside?"

001 flew up: "There are people playing cards. There are also a few women in the innermost room, playing cards as well."

That's it?

"Do you have a lot of money to spend on cards?"

001 shook her head: "Not many, they're all in pieces."

Was she overthinking things? Gu Yin didn't leave. She leaned against the door and opened it a crack, finally managing to hear what was happening inside.

As Gu Yin listened to what those people were saying, her brows furrowed more and more; something was wrong with these people.

What's the point of constantly preventing my uncle from going home? And what do they mean by the good thing they keep talking about?

Upon hearing that her uncle was going home, Gu Yin got up to leave, otherwise she might bump into him later.

"Your aunt is here, and the women in the room inside are starting to take off their clothes."

001 had barely finished speaking when Gu Yin was patted on the shoulder.

"What are you doing here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?!" Li Xiang looked at Gu Yin in confusion.

Fortunately, 001 spoke first, otherwise Gu Yin would have been terrified.

Gu Yin turned around and whispered, "I saw my uncle go out in the middle of the night and was worried that something had happened to him, so I followed him. Aunt, what brings you here?"

“Your uncle asked me to come. He can’t leave if I don’t come. Those people are really annoying. No matter how much your uncle refuses, they just won’t listen. They bombard him with phone calls, knock on his window in the middle of the night, and they’re capable of anything! Your uncle is too shy to admit it, so I had to handle this!”

After Li Xiang finished speaking, she pulled Gu Yin aside and started banging on the door.

After a short while, the door finally opened.

Before the person opening the door could speak, Li Xiang rushed in, grabbed Gu Qingming's ear, and angrily scolded, "I've worked all day! And you're drinking! I told you I had to get up early to work tomorrow! And you sneaked out again! Did you just ignore me?! I haven't had a single day of free time since I got married! And you! Drinking during the day and playing cards at night! I'll let you play! I'll let you play!"

After saying that, he released Gu Qingming's ear, waved his hands at the card table, and the card table was overturned!

"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! Calm down! We didn't do anything, we only played cards for a dollar! You really don't need to be so angry!"

"That's right. A man has to maintain some dignity in public, otherwise no one will respect him! How embarrassing!"

Li Xiang roared, "What's the use of face?! Can you eat it? Can you use it as money? If not, what's the point of having it! Come back with me! Your mother is already waiting at home with a stick! Come on, come on!" After saying that, she pulled Gu Qingming and walked out.

Gu Qingming looked at the others and smiled apologetically, "Well, I'll head back first, you guys have fun."

After saying that, Gu Qingming saw Li Chengda wink at him, smiled, said nothing, and left the room.

After everyone left, one of them looked at Li Chengda and said, "Ahem! Shall we... still play?"

"Screw you, play with my ass! After that commotion, your wives might all be coming this way! Come on, let's go home, we'll come back tomorrow!" Li Chengda was furious. Those damned old hags! Once he's swindled all the money, let's see what they have to be so arrogant about!

Gu Qingming went out and saw Gu Yin. He opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

The three returned to the Gu family home. Gu Yin looked at Gu Qingming and asked, "Uncle, what were you doing just now?"

Gu Qingming sighed: "That Li Chengda is setting me up. I knew it wouldn't be anything good these past few days, he's been trying to get close to me every day, he's been so diligent! There are several women in that room, if this scheme doesn't work out tonight, he'll definitely come looking for me again tomorrow!"

Gu Yin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Gu Qingming understood.

He lowered his head and whispered, "We can turn the tables on them. Tomorrow, the fairy will do this..."
