Chapter 3790: A New Addition (406)

The hidden card dealt to Gu Jinglian was an Ace and the hidden card was a K. It was exactly 21 points. He was shockingly lucky. This meant that Qingjiu was bound to lose.
No matter what his hidden card was, the open card was a 2 of Spades, a particularly low-value. No matter the value of the hidden card, there was nothing he could do about it.
But Gu Jinglian hesitated.
Should he call for another card?
He’d bust. That way, he’d lose. He’d lose a finger, but at least he could save Qingjiu for this round.
Should he?
Gu Jinglian’s gaze fell to his hand. In the midst of his hesitation, Qingjiu said, “Boss, you don’t have to… you don’t have to protect me…”
He knew what he was thinking! Gu Jinglian frowned but said nothing.
Qingjiu said however, “The hidden card in your hand is an Ace, isn’t it?”
Gu Jinglian looked startled that he had guessed correctly.
Qingjiu said, “If you bust to protect me, then I’d also choose to bust. Boss… don’t worry about me, understand?!”
When Black Panther saw this scene, his breathing suddenly quickened and he felt inexplicably frustrated!
“What’s the point if you play like this?! Deliberately letting each other win like this. Is this still gambling?! Ha! I’m not a charity and this is not a game of happy family. I’m being serious! Since both of you are bent on death, I’ll execute you now. How about that?!”
As he said this, Black Panther made a move to press a button. Gu Jinglian snapped, “You’re breaking the rules of the game! We’re not breaking the rules. You have no right to do that!”
“Get this straight. Now his life, your woman’s life, and your children’s lives are in my hands! I am God. I have the right to rule.”
“You’re going to break the rules?!”
“You’re the ones breaking the rules! Seeing how deep your relationship is, I just can’t bear to do it. I might as well give you a quick death. How about that?!”
Gu Jinglian was about to flare up when Qingjiu immediately stopped him.
“Calm down, boss.” Then Qingjiu said to him, “Let’s continue!”
Gu Jinglian held back his anger.
Qingjiu said, “I’m playing seriously.”
Gu Jinglian nodded. “Play seriously. And if you lose, I have nothing to say.”
“Okay.” Qingjiu was touched. He understood that Gu Jinglian could not bear to watch him die.
So he raised his hand and said, “Hit.”
The dealer dealt another card.
It was a 9 of Hearts.
Qingjiu cracked his knuckles. It was Gu Jinglian’s turn. He maintained his cards.
Qingjiu too maintained his cards.
The cards were turned over one at a time.
Gu Jinglian had 21 points, maximum value.
Qingjiu, on the other hand, had 18 points and was being punished.
The electric drill started up again. The life damning sound of spinning drills assaulted their ears!
Qingjiu nervously tightened his fists. As the drill bit dug deeper, his entire body convulsed as if he had been electrocuted. By the time the drilling stopped, his breathing had quickened drastically.
The pain was so intense that the game could not continue.
Black Panther’s eyes were fixed on the camera, studying Qingjiu’s pained expression, but he said nothing.
However, Gu Jinglian knew that on the one hand, the man was really in pain. On the other hand, he was stalling for time.
He also fell silent. From his point of view, it might be difficult to imagine what kind of pain Qingjiu was enduring. However, it must be worse than death!
Qing Jiu even thought of biting his tongue to commit suicide. However, for some reason, his daughter’s smile appeared in his mind, and his survival instincts sustained him.
Black Panther was clearly growing impatient. “The game’s still on. Don’t dilly-dally on purpose!”
