Chapter 58 The Gamble Continues 1
The sobbing of the little body in my arms gradually subsided, leaving only slight tremors and occasional gasps.
Gu Chengyu lowered his head and gently rubbed her soft hair with his chin, his voice unnaturally soft: "Be good, don't cry. Shall we go home?"
He just wanted to immediately take the frightened and crying little thing in his arms away from this smoky place, close the door and comfort it.
Unexpectedly, Su Qianqian's little head buried in his chest shook.
She raised her eyes, which were tearing like little rabbits, and said softly, "I won't go back."
Gu Chengyu frowned slightly: "Hmm? Where else do you want to go?"
"Don't you have a bet that's not over yet?"
Su Qianqian sniffed, her little hands still around his waist, looking up at him with a hint of jealousy and stubbornness in her eyes, "I want to see you continue with the bet."
Gu Chengyu's heart tightened, and he refused without thinking: "No! It's a mess inside, what's there to see? It's an eyesore!"
He felt annoyed when he thought of the disgusting scenes in the box, and he didn't want her to step in again.
"Why can you stay but I can't?"
Su Qianqian pouted again, extremely insistent, "I want to see it! I want to see with my own eyes that you are completely clear with her!"
Gu Chengyu felt a headache when he saw her stubborn little face and persistent eyes.
This little ancestor, just after being coaxed, started to argue with him again.
He knew the jealousy in her heart, and if he didn't let her see the end with her own eyes, she would not be able to rest easy when she returned home.
He sighed, feeling helpless and indulgent.
There was no point in trying to reason with her, and he was even more reluctant to be mean to her.
"Okay, let's take a look."
Gu Chengyu compromised, "But not to Yunque."
He didn't loosen his arm around her waist, and with his other hand he took out his cell phone from his pocket and called the bar owner directly.
The call was connected immediately.
"Clear a private room on the lower floor immediately and send some refreshments and fruit in. No messy things are allowed."
The reason why it is not on the top floor is because there is only one box, Yunque, on this floor. Inside the box are various small suites, and outside are also VIP suites.
After hanging up the phone, he lowered his head and explained to the little girl in his arms: "It's downstairs. I opened a private room for myself. Lin Shu will come over later and we can talk it over there."
He pinched the tip of her small nose and said, "Is this okay? You little stubborn donkey."
Su Qianqian then hummed in satisfaction, and rubbed her little head against his chest dependently.
Gu Chengyu hugged her and went downstairs.
The VIP box downstairs is definitely not as big as Yunque, but it has an excellent view.
The sofa was soft and comfortable, the air was filled with the elegant fragrance of tea, and exquisite snacks and fruits were placed on the low table, a stark contrast to the extravagant chaos above.
Gu Chengyu placed Su Qianqian on the sofa and rubbed her head: "Just sit here and watch. Everyone will be here soon."
He sat down next to her, took out his phone, and opened the small group that only contained Shen Que, Qin Yu, and Zhou Yuan.
His slender fingers tapped quickly on the screen, his words concisely and to the point: [Get dressed and go to the box downstairs immediately. This boring bet must be settled tonight.]
After sending the message, Gu Chengyu hugged Su Qianqian and asked in a low voice, comforting and asking, "Who asked you to come?"
Su Qianqian buried her face even lower and whispered, "Well, it was in the afternoon. Sister Shu stopped me in the corridor and showed me the address of the private room. She said you two were still related."
Gu Chengyu's eyes turned cold instantly.
——
As soon as the group message was sent, the phones of Shen Que, Qin Yu, and Zhou Yuan rang at the same time.
"bite."
"bite."
"bite."
The three prompt sounds were particularly clear in the slightly eerie atmosphere of Yunque.
The background music had been turned down, and everyone was still whispering about what had just happened.
Shen Que irritably pushed away the woman next to him who was trying to get close to him again, took out his cell phone and unlocked it.
When he saw the message that Gu Chengyu sent to the small group of four, his expression became complicated.
The private room downstairs? Let everyone get dressed and go there?
The tearful woman at the door just now, Su Qianqian, almost immediately flashed through Shen Que's mind.
Cheng Yu must have done it for her.
Not only did he chase them out and coax them into submission, he also brought them under his nose and made them dress neatly to end the gambling game?
This wasn't about gambling, it was clearly about giving that woman an explanation.
An indescribable bitterness surged into Shen Que's heart.
The pure little white flower that he caught a glimpse of at the company during the day became the apple of Cheng Yu's eye at night.
And let Cheng Yu do this for the first time?
He subconsciously wanted to speak up and tell Qin Yu and Zhou Yu'an beside him about this matter as a joke as before.
He wanted to say: Cheng Yu’s new love is the new person I fell in love with in the company during the day. Isn’t that a coincidence?
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
Shen Que pulled the corner of his mouth, forcibly suppressing the embarrassment in his heart, and put on that cynical smile on his face again.
He shook his phone, deliberately raising his voice and teasingly said, "Tsk, look, Prince Gu has spoken! Let's all dress neatly and gather in the box downstairs to put an end to this lousy gambling game."
He glanced around at the people in the box who still had some glaring eyes, and said in a long tone, "Did you hear that? Hurry up! Tighten your belts, adjust your skirts, and dress neatly. What's the point of hugging and embracing?"
"Don't let it bother the Crown Prince and his new lover."
He deliberately emphasized the word "new love" and glanced at the ambiguous figures scattered on the ground and in the corner, with a hint of meaning.
"Hold!"
Qin Yu also saw the message, cursed, pushed Xia Wei away from his arms, and began to button his open shirt in a frantic and rough manner.
He buttoned his clothes while complaining unhappily, "Dress neatly?"
"Who is Gu Chengyu referring to? Hasn't he seen everything about me before?"
"What? You're a good person now? Why are you pretending to be so high and mighty?"
Having said that, he still quickly buckled his belt tighter.
Zhou Yuan slowly pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose.
His eyes swept over Shen Que's forced calmness, and then glanced at Qin Yu's cursing movements, his eyes full of interest.
He stood up and said in a gentle voice, "Let's go and take a look. I'm also curious about the person who can make Cheng Yu make an exception."
His eyes swept over Lin Shu, who was sitting stiffly on the sofa with a pale face.
The other young men and their female companions in the box who were still a little confused suddenly woke up and began to tidy up their appearance.
The female companions hurriedly tidied up their messy skirts and hair, and the young men buttoned up their open buttons and picked up their coats on the ground and put them on.
——
Shen Que packed up and couldn't help but sneered.
His gaze turned and fell on Lin Shu, who was still wearing her swimsuit.
She stared blankly at the ground.
Shen Que walked up to her and kicked the windbreaker she had taken off and thrown away on the ground with the tip of his leather shoes.
"Hello."
Chen Que's voice was cold and thin, and he nodded his chin towards the windbreaker on the ground. "Big star Lin, what are you standing there for? Pick it up and put it on."
He leaned over slightly, closer to her, and lowered his voice with sarcasm and indifference: "After all, some people can't stand your dissolute appearance."
"Dress warmly and don't get in the way of others."
Lin Shu's body trembled. Shen Que's words humiliated her severely.
But she didn't dare to offend him at all.
There are only so many resources in this circle, but newcomers keep emerging.
Her fingers were digging into the sofa so hard that her nails were almost broken.
Amidst the gazes of those around her, some sympathetic, some contemptuous, and some simply watching the show, she slowly bent down, picked up the windbreaker, and wrapped it around herself carelessly.
Shen Que no longer looked at her and walked towards the door of the box first.
Qin Yu followed, cursing.
Zhou Yu'an walked at the end with a calm demeanor, like an elegant audience, ready to enjoy the next more exciting scene.
Others followed suit.
Lin Shu, wrapped in a windbreaker, followed at the back of the crowd, and every step she took was extremely difficult.
She was so angry, why did they treat her like this?
