Chapter 265: Where You Fell, There You Get Back Up
Sun Xuance's face turned pale.
He knew what kind of person his son was.
But he didn't expect that this kid was so bold as to bet the family heirloom!
"Is there... is there some misunderstanding here? Even though Kaisheng likes to play, I keep him very strictly under control. How could he possibly gamble?"
While saying this, he kept winking at Zhang Wentao.
Sun Kaisheng was addicted to gambling and even dared to use his family heirloom as a bet. If this matter were to get out, his reputation would be completely ruined!
Sun Xuance planned to let Zhang Wensheng secretly persuade Ye Yan to suppress the matter.
At worst, I can spend a little more money privately to redeem the Broken Army Spear.
After all, that thing is of no use to others.
However, Ye Yan did not give Sun Xuance any face at all.
"That's not right. Young Master Sun kept saying he would help you deal with me. He even went so far as to capture my brother-in-law and friends and set up a life-or-death duel!"
"At first, he was going to play with me by offering 800 million, but unfortunately, I'm not as wealthy as Governor Sun, so he ended up choosing the Broken Army Spear. With the Broken Army Spear, I'm betting my life!"
"Fortunately, I won in the end. Otherwise, my life would have been lost to Young Master Sun!"
Sun Xuance's expression became increasingly ugly.
On the one hand, he resented Ye Yan for not giving him any face at all.
On the other hand, he was indeed disappointed with Sun Kaisheng.
This brat, how dare he cause trouble for Ye Yan?
No wonder I heard him say yesterday that the Sun family had lost four powerful masters and still owed a huge favor to the Fulong Sect and the Tianwu Sect!
No matter how slow Sun Xuance's reaction was, he finally came to his senses.
This is obviously a plot set by the Fulong Sect and the Tianwu Sect!
This not only intensified the conflict between Sun Xuance and Ye Yan, but also completely dragged Sun Xuance onto their chariot.
Killing two birds with one stone, what a good plan!
Even if Sun Xuance wanted to remain neutral, with this hatred in the middle, how could he stand firm?
In other words, with this incident intervening, would Ye Yan believe that he would remain neutral?
Sun Xuance took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Ye, there must be some misunderstanding! My mentor's birthday banquet is about to begin, and I don't want to ruin the atmosphere at this time."
"How about this, after the birthday party, we can have a good talk in private!"
Ye Yan knew when to stop and did not continue to force it.
But at this time, old man Zhang Songbai suddenly rushed over accompanied by several younger generations.
"Sun Xuance! I repeatedly remind all students that gambling is a taboo, or your family will be ruined sooner or later!"
"Look at the good son you've raised! He's a spendthrift, casually taking out 800 million for a lavish gamble. He's truly wealthy!"
Sun Xuance's face was pale and beads of sweat the size of beans were oozing from his forehead.
"Teacher, I was wrong..."
Zhang Songbai's complexion is much better than before, and he looks full of energy.
He had a stern face and looked extremely serious, which gave people a great sense of pressure.
"Forget it. I'm old now, and I can't control those young people! But as long as you are still my student, don't you listen carefully to what I say?"
"Send the Broken Army Spear to Mr. Ye! If you've done something wrong, you must have the courage and sense of responsibility to bear the consequences!"
Sun Xuance felt particularly aggrieved.
The teacher actually intervenes in such matters?
Shouldn't he, the old man, severely reprimand Ye Yan for participating in gambling and declare the bet invalid?
It seems that Ye Yan's position in the old man's heart is indeed extraordinary.
Where has the old man's heart gone?
"That Broken Army Spear is, after all, my Sun family's heirloom. So, I'm willing to pay 800 million to redeem it!"
When Mr. Zhang spoke, Sun Xuance didn't dare to refute.
This is not only because the old man is his most respected mentor. If he betrays his teacher and ancestors, he will be despised by everyone!
At the same time, he didn't want to offend his other fellow disciples.
After all, although he is the governor of a province, among Mr. Zhang’s favorite students, there are definitely no less than ten people whose status is higher than his!
These people would have become his network of contacts.
If we become enemies because of this, it would be a huge loss!
Before Ye Yan could speak, Old Master Zhang snorted in displeasure.
"You still know that it's your Sun family's heirloom? You're going to lose it to someone else like that. Do you still have any dignity left, Sun Xuance?"
"Whether you redeem it or rely on trickery and force to evade the debt, you have already lost all the face you deserve!"
"If you really want to regain your dignity, don't try to be opportunistic or bully others! You must get up from where you fell!"
Sun Xuance was stunned. What did this mean?
Could it be that Sun Kaisheng wants to gamble with Ye Yan again?
But the old man hates gambling the most. Is he going to make an exception for Ye Yan again?
