What was he thinking at that time?

Oh right!

At that time, he thought that this person didn’t have much ability and only relied on cheating to win so much money.

He wanted to expose this person for cheating. Then, he would win her money and become famous in the casino.

With this in mind, Ma Baoshan revealed what he was thinking at that time.

At this moment, Ma Dongxing wanted to slap his son.

Young people were too naive. He actually wanted to use this opportunity to become famous in the gambling world? What kind of nonsense was this?

When Li Xiaoran heard Ma Baoshan’s words, she thought about it for a moment and asked,

“What if you had won yesterday? In that case, what were you going to do next? What were you going to do with the money you won from me?”

“What was I going to do?” Ma Baoshan was confused.

He had thought of many possibilities, but he hadn’t thought about how to use this money.

“I probably would have treated the people in the casino to drinks! Then, everyone would have had a good time!”

Li Xiaoran said to Ma Baoshan sternly, “No, you would have become addicted and kept on gambling until you lost all your money. Then, you would have taken out your Sheep Jade and continued gambling! Not only that, but you also would have owed a lot of gambling debts under the instigation of others!” When Ma Baoshan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he was immediately furious.

“That’s impossible. I have self-control!”

Li Xiaoran glanced at Ma Baoshan and said, “No, you can’t control yourself!

Have you forgotten why you went to the casino yesterday?” At this moment, Ma Baoshan thought of something and his expression changed.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and Ma Baoshan’s expression turned ugly.

When Ma Dongxing saw his son like this, he immediately understood something.

“What’s going on? How did you get to the casino?”

Ma Baoshan could refuse to admit it, but when he faced his father, he couldn’t lie.

“It was Sixth Cousin and Lu Letian. They instigated me to come! By the way, Father, how did Sixth Cousin know that I had the Sheep Jade on me? After I got the Sheep Jade, I never told anyone, but yesterday, Sixth Cousin immediately recognized that I had Sheep Jade on me! Lu Letian said that I was a coward for being controlled by my family all day long and since I haven’t ever been to a casino before!”

Ma Dongxing’s expression changed drastically when he heard his son’s words.

The sixth cousin Ma Baoshan was talking about wasn’t from his wife’s family, but from her stepmother’s family.

No wonder his stepmother had been secretly investigating something all these years. She was after this Sheep Jade!

When Li Xiaoran saw the expressions on the father and son’s faces, she asked someone to bring the Sheep Jade over.

“Take a closer look at this jade. Is it your family’s heirloom?” When Ma Dongxing saw this, he quickly took out the Sheep Jade.

After he flipped it over and over, he finally nodded.

“It’s indeed the Ma family’s Sheep Jade. Thank you, Seventh Consort!”

Li Xiaoran said, “You can take the Sheep Jade. Consider it that your family owes me a huge favor! Also, Ma Baoshan, the promise you gave me yesterday is still valid. Today, I want you to fulfill your promise!”

Ma Baoshan replied readily when he saw Li Xiaoran return the Sheep Jade to the Ma family so readily, “I lost, so tell me! What do you want me to do?”

Li Xiaoran said her conditions, “I want you to be a beggar for three days, then a long-term worker for a month, then a shopkeeper for a month, and finally, go to the casino to collect debt ten times. When you collect the debt, you can only follow and watch. You can’t speak or help. You can only be a bystander and watch from the beginning to the end!”

As soon as she said this, not to mention Ma Baoshan, even Ma Dongxing was stunned.

What kind of request was this?

Ma Baoshan asked in a daze, ‘You’re not joking with me, are you?”

Li Xiaoran said, “I’m not joking with you!” Then, Li Xiaoran looked at Ma Dongxing.

“Ma Dongxing, you’re Ma Baoshan’s father, so there are some things I have to explain to you first. This is my bet with your son, so you’re not allowed to look for Ma Baoshan for the next three months. Even if you meet him on the street, you can only pretend not to know him. You can’t help him do anything. In three months, I’ll definitely return your son to you safe and sound!”

At first, Ma Dongxing was a little baffled, but when he saw his son’s unhappy expression and thought of how his son had been instigated to go to the casino, he immediately made up his mind and nodded.

“I can’t thank you enough for your kindness! If you need my help in the future, feel free to tell me. Since this matter involves the bet, I’ll keep my word! Don’t worry, Seventh Consort, Ma Baoshan won’t be in our family for the next three months.”

With Ma Dongxing’s help, this matter was basically settled.

After that, Ma Dongxing left with the Sheep Jade, while Ma Baoshan was taken away by Zi Cheng.

He had agreed to experience three days of beggar life, so of course they had to make it seem convincing.

At this moment, Ma Baoshan was wearing smelly clothes and his hair was messy.

What was even worse was that his legs had been pricked by Zi Cheng, so he couldn’t exert any force on one of his legs.

As the young master of the Ma family, he had actually become a beggar now.

He was lying on a tattered mat in a corner of the capital and living off begging!

After Ma Baoshan’s matter was resolved, Li Xiaoran made omelets.

When Luo Cheng saw her happy expression, he asked with a smile, “You’re so happy just because you spent so much effort to help a brat? In my opinion, you shouldn’t have helped that brat! There’s no need for you to spend so much effort on someone else’s child!”

Li Xiaoran said, “I’m very happy to be able to help other people! Although Ma Baoshan is cursing me now, after three months, he will definitely thank me! Although I indeed didn’t have to interfere, since I met him, I naturally had to interfere. Just treat it as me doing a good deed!”

Luo Cheng said with a smile, “Of course I support your decision! To be honest, I’m actually looking forward to it. I wonder what will happen to Ma Baoshan when I see him again in three months!”

Li Xiaoran said, “Just wait and see! There might be a surprise!”

The matter at the casino came to an end. At the same time, the Shu family received news from Shu Ruyue.

Shu Ruyue’s father, Shu Wang, read the contents of the letter and immediately asked someone to tidy it up.

At the same time, Shu Wang went to the Shu family’s patriarch with the message!
