Chapter 512: I Feel an Extra Responsibility on My Shoulders

Si Hongchu slowly shook his head: "I can't choose!"

"But I'll let you choose!" Cao Peiru smiled coldly, and said: "You must give me an explanation today, between me and Guo Jiani, who do you choose!"

Cao Peiru's words were a little under-scrutinized, as if she was forcing Si Hongchu to marry, although it was funny, but Si Hongchu couldn't laugh: "I don't think it's necessary to make this choice, because for me, the people around me are equally important, and there is no one more important." ”

"That's a bit hurtful...... Si Hongchu, how much did I help you when you first came to Guangsha?What did Guo Jiani do for you?" Cao Peiru smiled coldly: "Hearing you say such things, I feel that I helped the wrong person in the first place!"

Si Hongchu couldn't help but recall how he accidentally crashed into the bathhouse when he first went to school to report, and how he was mistaken for a technician who gave Cao Peiru a massage. Since that time, Si Hongchu seems to have an indissoluble fate with Cao Peiru, just as Cao Peiru said, many things may not be able to get to this day if it were not for Cao Peiru's help.

Si Hongchu let out a long sigh: "I also helped you do a lot." ”

"I know that. Cao Peiru smiled coldly again: "So, what did Guo Jiani do for you to let you do your best to maintain it?"

"Guo Jiani really hasn't done anything, but when she calls me 'brother', I feel an extra responsibility on my shoulders. With a wry smile, Si Hongchu continued: "Maybe it's because I haven't had many relatives since I was a child, so I especially want to have brothers and sisters, and I can feel that Guo Jiani is sincere to me." ”

"Really...... But you have also done a lot for Guo Jiani, isn't it because you got the antidote that saved Guo Jiani's life. Cao Peiru's expression was still dissatisfied, but she was still slightly moved. Because Si Hongchu's yearning for family affection is also what Cao Peiru once had.

When Lan Hao heard this, he glanced at Cao Peiru in surprise.

Cao Pei told Lan Hao with a smile: "Guo Jiani has a very rare and strange disease, and contemporary medicine is helpless, but Si Hongchu successfully got an antidote. ”

Lan Hao nodded thoughtfully: "So that's the case." ”

"Sister Cao is really well-informed, and these are highly confidential, because Guo Zhengyi hopes that the outside world will think that Guo Jiani is dead. After a pause, Si Hongchu continued: "I'm doing my best to help you, I once proposed to Guo Zhengyi to withdraw from your territory, but Guo Zhengyi didn't agree......"

"Why didn't you use the antidote before to blackmail Guo Zhengyi into agreeing to your conditions?"

"I'm sorry, I ignored ...... before" Si Hongchu shook his head helplessly: "Guo Zhengyi is too cunning, I used the antidote in exchange for him to withdraw from the territory of the Peach Blossom Gang, but he didn't explicitly agree, and I can't bring up your matter again." Moreover, Guo Zhengyi has taken my psychology, that is, even if he does not agree to any of my conditions, I will also help Guo Jiani. Later, I got the antidote, I thought that Guo Zhengyi would definitely give face when I brought up your matter, but I didn't expect Guo Zhengyi to really give it. ”

"You have a heart. Through secret channels, Cao Peiru first learned that Guo Jiani was seriously ill, and later learned that Si Hongchu had an antidote. It's just that she has been saying it publicly, but secretly observing what Si Hongchu will do.

She originally thought that Si Hongchu would definitely exchange the antidote for Guo Zhengyi to withdraw from his own territory, but the clinker backfired. Therefore, from the time she got the news, Cao Peiru secretly hated Si Hongchu, but only now did she take the opportunity to attack.

"So, I'm in a dilemma now, I hope Sister Cao, you don't force me, I really can't choose. Taking a deep breath, Si Hongchu said word by word: "It is precisely because of this that I hope to treat Guo Zhengyi and Guo Jiani separately, so that I can do my best to help you." ”

"Okay, let's not talk about that, let's move on. Lu Zhenhuan listened for a long time, and then came out to play a round: "I believe that Si Hongchu has a scale in his heart." ”

Si Hongchu nodded: "Thank you Lu Lao for saying that." ”

Lu Zhenhuan sat down, took out a pair of walnuts, and said deeply while coiling: "Based on the opinions of several of you, it seems that it is ...... There is only one bet. ”

Cao Peiru immediately said: "I will let Hou Xuewen prepare." ”

"Sister Cao......" Si Hongchu said a little dissatisfied: "Do you really plan to let that surnamed Hou go up, why don't you let me go?"

Cao Peiru glanced at Si Hongchu: "I'm afraid that you will eat inside and out!"

Si Hongchu shook his head: "It's okay for you to slander my personality, but you can't slander my gambling skills...... No, you can slander my gambling skills, but you can't slander my personality...... Wait, no, you shouldn't have slandered me at all. ”

Cao Pei asked with a smile: "What, you are very confident, forget how badly you lost last time?"

"I didn't play well at the time!" Si Hongchu patted his chest: "People have misses, horses have stumbled." Brother Chun can be a supergirl, but he can't help his niece...... Can't you just give me another chance?"

Lan Hao looked at Si Hongchu's confident appearance and smiled slightly: "Since Xiao Chu said so, I think Sister Cao should give it a chance." ”

Si Hongchu said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, Uncle Lan!"

Lan Hao added: "Let him bet with Hou Xuewen once to see who can win!"

Cao Peiru readily agreed: "No problem." ”

Si Hongchu was very depressed: "You don't trust me so much?"

The last time Guo Zhengyi won was a pair of pants

Huh, Si Hongchu is holding back his strength to get back face, as long as he can beat Hou Xuewen this time, he can also let everyone stop making fun of themselves about this matter in the future.

Clinker, the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny.

Si Hongchu gambled a few handfuls of zakin flowers with Hou Xuewen, but he lost all the cash on his body, and he even wore a shirt.

Although he was shirtless, no matter what, Si Hongchu still had a pair of pants left, which was not as miserable as last time.

Cao Peiru looked at Si Hongchu's declining appearance, and almost laughed: "Are you convinced?"

"Since you decided to let Hou Xuewen play, let's go......" Si Hongchu shrugged his shoulders: "But you have to be careful......"

"What?"

"I doubt Guo Zhengyi will let Hou Xuewen walk into the casino alive. ”

"I already expected that Hou Xuewen was strictly protected. Cao Peiru waved her hand and said, "By the way, the date of the gambling game has been set, you can go with it!"

Si Hongchu nodded: "Of course." ”

The gambling game was set up in a luxurious private club on the outskirts of the city, Lu Zhenhuan didn't go that day, stayed in his study, and naturally someone would report the situation on the field to him in real time.

Lan Hao and Cao Peiru arrived ahead of schedule with Si Hongchu, and Feihu with more than 20 of his most capable subordinates escorted Hou Xuewen to follow.

Everyone acted separately to prevent Guo Zhengyi from making a ghost.

Guo Zhengyi also arrived, sitting on a wide leather chair, smoking a Cuban cigar, and looked at Cao Peiru intently: "I heard that you invited a master, who was a famous gambling god in the Guangfu area back then?"

Cao Peiru couldn't help but smile smugly: "This gamble is very important, I don't dare to treat it sloppily." ”

"But you don't know this so-called gambling god ...... at all" Guo Zhengyi asked lightly: "Do you know his gambling skills, maybe he just bragged about it? Or has he been bribed by me and put you together after he plays?"

Guo Zhengyi said that these possibilities, Cao Peiru also considered it.

In the past few days, Cao Peiru has sent his most powerful subordinates to stay by Hou Xuewen's side 24 hours a day, both for protection and surveillance, which means that Hou Xuewen has no chance to contact the outside world at all.

In addition, Cao Peiru also tested Hou Xuewen's gambling skills, and it turned out that all his subordinates were not Hou Xuewen's opponents, and the name of the God of Gambling was really not blown.

In order to make Hou Xuewen die hard, Cao Peiru promised a huge salary and various benefits, and almost didn't give Hou Xuewen a daughter-in-law.

It wasn't until all this was confirmed that Cao Peiru dared to send Hou Xuewen to play, but there was no reason to tell Guo Zhengyi about these things, so Cao Peiru just said lightly: "Whether it works or not, you will know when the time comes." ”

"Okay. Guo Zhengyi took a deep puff of cigarette and said meaningfully: "Since you insist on going your own way, I will be ruthless." ”

Cao Peiru immediately asked, "You don't want to kill someone, do you?"

"I am indeed not Hou Xuewen's opponent......" Guo Zhengyi smiled and admitted calmly: "Only killing him is the best way." ”

"Do you think there's a chance?"

Guo Zhengyi smiled smugly: "Try it." ”

At this time, Guo Zhengyi was like a huge machine, gradually working at full speed to strangle everything in front of him, and on the contrary, the light of Cao Peiru, who was originally in the middle of the day, continued to dim.

While the two sides were talking, a black car stopped outside the clubhouse, followed by another one from the other direction. In the end, a total of five cars came, all of which were very ordinary models and not at all remarkable.

The door of a car opened, and Fat Tiger came down first to look around, and then invited Hou Xuewen down.

The other people in the car also got down one after another, and it was none other than the subordinates sent by Cao Peiru.

Proceeding from common sense, Cao Peiru should take Hou Xuewen with him in case of accidents, Lan Hao and Cao Peiru brought more than 400 subordinates this time, and they could completely let Hou Xuewen mix in it.

Therefore, Guo Zhengyi will definitely send someone to stare at Cao Peiru and find an opportunity to kill Hou Xuewen, at least Cao Peiru and Lan Hao think so.

That's why they sent Fatty Tiger to bypass Guo Zhengyi's ears and eyes and quietly bring Hou Xuewen over.

After all the subordinates arrived, they walked towards the club in groups, as long as they could enter the door of the clubhouse, Hou Xuewen would be safe and secure, and he could play a bet.

Because the status of this club is relatively special, and the forces of all parties have a tacit understanding to negotiate and settle grievances here, they will not use force here.

Of course, Guo Zhengyi is not an ordinary social person, and he will never follow the rules set by others. But there is really no better way for everyone at the moment.

Seeing the door of the clubhouse appear in the field of vision, getting closer and closer, Fat Tiger breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally completed the task......"

However, before the fat tiger could relax, the bushes on both sides of the road suddenly made a brushing sound.

The fat tiger followed the sound and found several black hole barrels poking out of the bushes.

"Get down quickly...... Fat Tiger hurriedly shouted, and before the words fell, the gunshots rang out.
