Why should he give in to a weakling?

When they fought, they used all of their strength, only,Gu Jinglian was more ruthless. After that incident, Gu Jinglian was isolated by the children in class and everyone considered him to be a dangerous person. From that day on, he returned to being the aloof and arrogant person that he was. Being one who spoke little, no one could penetrate his world anymore.

When it was time for primary education, Gu Jinglian stopped going to school and hired private tutors to give him tuition at the Gu family residence. At that time, the Gu family even specially set up a private school.

Butler Fu did not expect that history will replay with Baby Chu. This was not what he had hoped to see! He only hoped that Baby Chu would grow up safely and healthily, like any other normal child. Seeing that Baby Chu was adamant about not going to school, he did not insist.

Chu He stayed at the Gu residence to be with Baby Chu while Butler Fu hurried off to the casino.

…

“Ahhhhhh…”

“Master Gu! Master Gu… Spare me, please spare me… I won’t dare to do it again!” From one of the rooms in the casino came the sound of a man wailing.

Gu Jinglian calmly sat on the sofa, pinched the teacup cover to gently lift it, and took a sip.

By the side, a few hitmen picked up metal rods and started hitting this person.

“Didn’t I warn you that you have five days to return the money?! Do you take us to be a charity organization?! Not only have you not returned the money, you tried to run away?! Ha! Where do you think you’re going?!”

The gambler clutched his head and curled into a ball on the ground, shivering. He had been beaten black and blue, and several bones in his body were broken.

“Masters, please spare me! Please spare me! I won’t dare to do it again!”

“I won’t run anymore! I won’t run anymore…”

This gambler owed the casino a few million dollars. He had already owed it for two years. With compounding interest, he owed tens of millions. Gu Jinglian had said that he did not expect him to return the principal with interest. At the very least, if he returned the principal with an interest of one million yuan, he would be spared. This was already being very generous.

In the end, after given this ultimatum, the guy actually tried to give them the slip. Although the capital was huge, the Gu family’s power and influence was wide-spread. Hence whatever happened, they would quickly be in control.

Where could he run to?

It did not take much effort to capture him. Naturally, he had to be taught a lesson.

The casino had two main sources of revenue. One was the probability advantage from the games. Regardless of the chances of winning or losing, or even if someone had amazing gambling skills, gambling skills was only part of the game, it wasn’t everything. No matter what the rules of the game were, the host’s win rate is always above 60%.

Apart from that, the other stream of revenue comes from high interest lending. Normally, after winning money at the gambling table, the gamblers would want to win even more money. Some games had very high entry points, so borrowing money was a matter of course. On the other hand, people who had lost money were naturally unwilling to accept it, so they would take a loan to try to make back the money they lost.

It was a possibility that they could get lucky and win back some money, however even then, it may not be enough to cover the loan interest. If the person won and continued to gamble, they might end up losing everything.

In other words, the casino would lose little money; the money would always be circulating.

However, some people just couldn’t see it, and there were many people who lost everything overnight.

Few people would be able to leave the casino in a grand manner.

Almost none, in fact.
