My Whole Family's Setting Collapsed

After Gu Xin recovered from a serious illness, she discovered that her whole family had changed.

Her father, who was a gambling addict and nearly sold his wife and daughter, said he would nev...

Chapter 2209 I Look Alike with Lord Gu

Those around them who had placed bets thought the outcome of the bet was about to be revealed, but to their surprise, Gu Xin perked up again, and the two of them started again.

"Go for it, Young Master Wang! I've already bet a hundred taels!"

"Young Master Gu, rise up! I've bet 110 taels, you must win!"

Those who had placed bets cheered them on from the sidelines.

Even the waiters and other girls in the building started placing bets, and the food on the table kept piling up. Judging from the current situation, it seems that Fatty Wang can outdrink Gu Xin more often.

If Gu Xin wins, they will make a huge profit.

Time waits for no one. The two drank for an unknown amount of time, finishing all the wine stored in Chunyulou, but neither of them passed out yet.

Wang Pang was already blushing, and his tongue was slurring: "Pretty boy, I'm in a good mood today. It's okay if you lost. I'll take you as my brother! Let me tell you, when you go to Tongzhou, I'll treat you well! There's a kind of wine in Tongzhou that's famous throughout the Great Zhou. Its potency is unmatched by any other wine except for the one brewed by Lord Gu."

Gu Xin smiled and said, "It seems you really admire Lord Gu!"

Fatty Wang said, "Who doesn't admire a capable man? My favorite is Lord Gu. Lord Gu's early life is so similar to mine. I even think that I will be as lucky as Lord Gu after I turn thirty, but nobody believes me!"

Gu Xin stopped laughing and looked at Wang Pang with disdain: "What did you say? Lord Gu looks like you? Heh..."

Wang Pang perked up again: "That's right! When Lord Gu was young, he indulged in drinking, gambling, and whoring. Aside from not going to prostitutes, what else did he do? Even if he didn't go to prostitutes, he had a sweetheart! You might not know, young man, but before Madam Gu, Lord Gu had a woman he loved deeply. However, that woman was vain and married someone else. Lord Gu was deeply infatuated with her; it's said he didn't forget her for many years! Then one day, Lord Gu suddenly realized something, turned around and saw Madam Gu's competence and virtue, and realized that the person who would accompany him for life was the one beside him. Then, because of Madam Gu, he worked hard to improve himself, and now the two of them are deeply in love, a perfect couple, the envy of everyone!"

Gu Xin: "..."

It's amazing that stories about her father when he was young have been spread around.

Seeing that Gu Xin was listening attentively, Wang Pang continued, "Let me tell you, I also had a childhood sweetheart before I got married! I used to be a very good student, but my childhood sweetheart was also vain and married someone else. I was depressed for many years because of this. In recent years, after learning about Lord Gu's situation, I realized that I still have a chance. I'm still young, and if I play around for a few more years, I'll definitely rise to prominence by the time I'm thirty. Moreover, I've discovered that my wife is the one who will stay with me until the very end!"

Gu Xin twitched her lips: "I really wish someone would bring you a mirror so you could see yourself! Putting everything else aside, just looking at your appearance alone, you can't compare to Lord Gu. If you appeared in front of Lord Gu like this, even if you have the thickest skin, you would feel ashamed. It's not that I'm judging people by their appearance, it's just that..."

Gu Xin clicked her tongue and shook her head: "I've seen Lord Gu in the capital. He's as handsome as Pan An, and his aura can attract young women, wives, and old ladies. Tell me about you, you're probably the kind of person who would scare little kids to tears if you showed up! What face do you have to compare yourself to Lord Gu?"
