Was Aquaman’s ex-husband cremated today?

Chapter 124 Gambling

Li Qingwen was surrounded by a group of uncles and aunts, playing chess with great concentration.

The young people stayed away from the elders. The uncles and aunts watched the chess game without saying a word, so their area seemed extremely quiet.

She is playing chess with Uncle Chai.

We have been sitting down for half an hour. Because Uncle Chai plays chess slowly, there is still a large army on the chessboard and neither side has started fighting.

Uncle Chai took every step very cautiously. Li Qingwen judged from the pattern of his moves that although he pretended to attack, he was actually mainly on the defensive.

Very cunning.

Li Qingwen didn't have much patience and planned to attack through.

Like Tong Xiao, Zhou Yongan, after greeting everyone in the backstage, remembered Li Qingwen. He looked for him for a long time but couldn't find him until he passed the living room and saw a group of uncles and aunts gathered there.

Through the gap, he saw Li Qingwen sitting upright, working hard on the chessboard. He looked very focused, with his mouth pouting and his brows slightly furrowed.

Uncle Chai, who was sitting opposite her, was over 70 years old. Most of his hair was white and his eyes were dim.

After decades of playing chess, isn't this just bullying Li Qingwen?

Zhou Yongan coughed and pushed his way through the crowd: "Aren't you tired of standing, uncles? Go sit over there and have something to eat."

The uncles pulled him back and threw him aside: "Don't make trouble, go play somewhere else."

Li Qingwen was still wearing his coat, the heater was on in the room, and there was a crowd of people surrounding him, so he was already feeling a little hot.

She took off her coat and looked at Zhou Yongan.

Zhou Yongan reached out and took the coat.

An uncle was watching carefully. When he saw Li Qingwen suddenly make a mistake, he complained, "Yong'an, go away quickly and don't disturb us."

Others also rushed over, "Go and help your brother entertain the guests. We will take good care of Qingwen."

Zhou Yongan: “…”

What happened? So sudden.

On the chessboard, Li Qingwen had lost the initiative because of a wrong move.

Five minutes later, she lost the game.

Li Qingwen smiled shamefacedly and prepared to stand up and give his seat to other uncles. Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Uncle Liu.

Uncle Liu sat down opposite her and said, "Wives Yong'an, let's play the next round."

Li Qingwen remembered him as the first uncle who gave him a big red envelope.

Zhou Chunsheng's voice rang out from outside the crowd, his voice was very firm: "Old Liu, you can't beat her."

He was holding a cup of tea and walking towards them at a leisurely pace.

This is really embarrassing to say.

Uncle Liu was not convinced, thinking that his level in the past was inferior to Zhou Chunsheng's, but now he is much better than before.

What's more, "Old Zhou, your daughter-in-law just lost the game of chess. It's not right for you to say this. If you want to save face for your daughter-in-law, don't make fun of me."

Zhou Chunsheng sat on the sofa nearby and said firmly, "Old Liu, you really can't beat her."

Uncle Liu felt even more aggrieved and excited after hearing this. He hadn't played chess with Zhou Chunsheng for a long time. "Old Zhou, I haven't played much with you in recent years, but I have played electronic chess a lot. Don't think that my level is still the same as before."

Zhou Chunsheng slowly savored the top-quality Huangshan Maojian tea in his hand, chuckled and shook his head.

Seeing him like that, Uncle Liu simply said, "If you don't believe me, let's make a bet."

When they heard about the gambling, several old men laughed and started to make a noise: "If you lose, do you have to kowtow to Yongan's wife and become her disciple?"

Some people say: "Yong'an's daughter-in-law is young and busy with work, so how can she have time to take an apprentice?"

Another uncle said, "Isn't Lao Zhou eyeing the original Huayu shares in your hands? Do you dare to bet with them?"

Uncle Liu glared at the brother.

Zhou Chunsheng said at this time: "Sure, how about betting on this?"

Although Lao Liu only owns 0.3% of Huayu's original shares, if converted into the current market value of Huayu, it would be a huge number.

Uncle Liu suddenly fell silent and hesitated.

He was the one who suggested making a bet, so he couldn't back out now.

He saw the whole fight between Yongan's daughter-in-law and Lao Chai very clearly. The techniques, layouts, and traps set by Yongan's daughter-in-law were all within his expectations.

Thinking of this, Lao Liu coughed and said, "Okay, if I really lose, I can just sell the original shares back to you. What's the big deal?"

Not long ago, Lao Zhou had talked to him about purchasing shares, but he felt that Huayu was still on the rise, and it would be best to keep these original shares, as they would only become more valuable in the future.

But now I have to play with my heartbeat.

Seeing that Lao Liu had agreed, Zhou Chunsheng showed the smile of an old fox.

Uncle Liu said calmly, "If I win, how about letting Yongan call me daddy when he sees me in the future?"

As soon as he said this, the crowd's expressions were divided into two types.

The few people who knew the inside story laughed and said, "Old Liu, why haven't you given up yet?"

Those who didn't know didn't dare to say anything and just observed Zhou Chunsheng's expression.

After all, you are selling your own son, so you can't joke about it.

Li Qingwen also looked at her father-in-law. She didn’t understand, was Zhou Chunsheng so optimistic about her chess skills?

Or has he long looked down upon Yongan and wants her to lose Yongan?

Zhou Chunsheng's face was calm as water, and he said generously: "You can ask him to recognize you as his godfather."

Uncle Liu grinned from ear to ear. He had liked the youngest son of the Zhou family since he was born. He had mentioned the idea of ​​adopting him as his godson to Zhou Chunsheng before, but Zhou had always refused and never gave him a chance.

Seeing that the gambling game was already formed, the pressure came to Li Qingwen.

She just lost to Uncle Chai, how could Dad believe that she could defeat Uncle Liu?

Can she really do it?

Someone who didn't know yet that he might have to call Uncle Liu his godfather was sitting not far away, chatting leisurely with his brothers, and glancing at the crowd watching the chess game from time to time.

Just like welcoming prisoners outside the prison, Zhou Yongan had no idea when these uncles would release them.

At this time, the servant brought him the gray coat he had just asked to take: "Second Young Master, the cell phone in the coat is ringing."

Zhou Yongan reached into his pocket, took out a pink-cased cell phone, and helped answer the call.

A middle-aged woman's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Qingwen, how are you thinking about what my aunt told you the day before yesterday?"

Zhou Yongan took it and looked at it and saw the note: Li Shuxiang.

Before Zhou Yongan could speak, the woman on the phone continued, "Zixuan is going to study abroad, and the school needs internship experience. If she can't find an internship company in the next six months, it will affect her study abroad. My aunt only recently found out that you married into a wealthy family. Don't you think it's okay to help her with this little bit? Zixuan is also your cousin..."

Zhou Yongan raised his eyes slightly, glanced at the crowd over there, and walked away.
