Xu Jiang looked at Cheng Cheng who had arrived, and also at Bai Jiangbo's finger.
"This is?"
"The apology is also Uncle Tai's idea. In addition, Uncle Tai said that since those two clubs have won, they belong to you."
A private club?
What do you mean by "two companies"?
At this moment, Xu Lei came out and said, "Xiao Qiang, take your finger and seal it properly."
"Yes, Master."
Chengcheng looked at Xu Lei and said, "Xu Jiang, you have a good son. Listen to your son more and don't be so arrogant in the future."
After saying that, Chengcheng left.
Xu Jiang looked at Xu Lei and said, "Son, you need to explain this to your old man, right?"
"It's nothing, I won over a million from Bai Jiangbo, and two clubs too."
Why is Chengcheng so good to you?
"Sister Chengcheng won over five million yuan, enough for a club."
P.S.: Please support me, thank you everyone.
Chapter Six: Uncle Tai's Choice (Seeking support, sixth update)
Gambling skills brought Xu Lei not only money, but also a grasp of the situation.
There's a saying that gamblers of lower levels play by techniques, while those of higher levels play by strategy. So, the first skill the system gave Xu Lei, gambling skills, actually encompasses a lot.
Even real-world competition is involved.
For example, Xu Lei was gambling that Cheng Cheng would take the money and do the job, and that this woman would be willing to see Bai Jiangbo fall.
I'm betting that this woman will do things for money, and I'm also betting that this woman will definitely take care of me.
Chengcheng cares a lot about her family. Later, she arranged for her cousin to stay with Xu Jiang, which showed how much she cared.
This concern for family actually transfers more to Xu Lei.
"Son, are you saying that Chengcheng won five million?"
Five million is a lot in this era, even though Chengcheng has emerged.
He worked for Uncle Tai, but he was just a messenger. The question is, who wouldn't want money in their pocket?
Money is the real deal, but in this era, loyalty is also important.
Xu Lei didn't intend to hide anything and explained his entire plan directly.
"You mean, your previous losses were just to create the illusion that you enjoy gambling?"
"Dad, you don't gamble, so how could I possibly be a gambler? What do you think?"
Xu Jiang was relieved. Actually, if his son just liked playing around with women, Xu Jiang wouldn't care much, because one or two million a year was enough for Xu Lei to have fun.
But if Xu Lei were to gamble, it would truly be a bottomless pit.
Of course, Xu Jiang himself hates drugs very much, and the fact that Baijinhang, as the most prestigious club, has never touched such things is something Xu Jiang has always insisted on.
Looking at his son, Xu Jiang had a momentary lapse of recognition, but his intuition told him that this was his son.
"What are you planning to do, Buckingham?"
"It depends on how far Dad hopes to go in the future."
Xu Jiang is getting old, but seeing his son's talent, he feels from the bottom of his heart that he can still give it his all.
"Have all the girls been evacuated?"
Xu Lei said, "There's no need to evacuate, but don't let anything happen inside the store. You can go anywhere, but you're not allowed in the store. Just stay here."
"anything else?"
"Sever this connection, or rather, complicate it so that no one can investigate you. You can even give up the money, Dad, and let others earn it. We'll just make enough from the drinks."
Xu Jiang said, "However, there are so many people under my command who require expenses."
Xu Lei said, "It's alright, now we have two more clubs. In the future, we'll work more with Uncle Tai's projects. We can make money, no rush."
Xu Jiang lit a cigar and silently exhaled smoke.
Actually, Xu Jiang doesn't smoke this stuff, but as the eldest brother, he has to act like one.
"Fine, son, are you planning to completely clear your name?"
Xu Lei said, "How do you clear your name, Dad? You know better than I do how much business you've been involved in. I'm just making things smaller. Prostitution can make money, but how much can a girl earn? A few thousand a day at most. But if you get a project or land development, you can get millions or even tens of millions in one phase."
But, after all, I've been doing this for so many years.
Xu Jiang was still reluctant to part with it.
"Father, do you want me to be in danger again in the future?"
This sentence completely shattered Xu Jiang's spirit.
Xu Jiang said, "Okay, go and rest, son. I'll have someone remove those women and hand them over to someone else. Whoever wants to take care of them, let them. Just do what you say and make money from drinks."
Xu Lei said, "It's not that we're all withdrawing. We just can't let anything happen inside the store, but what the customers and girls do in private is none of our business, right?"
Xu Jiang nodded; this was a compromise.
Xu Lei returned to the house.
Xu Jiang summoned his men and began giving them instructions. Then, he picked up his phone and made a call to Uncle Tai.
"Uncle Tai, it's been a long time since I've had tea with you. I recently got some new tea leaves, Uncle Tai, I'll bring them to you."
"You've put your heart into it, you've raised a fine son, Xu Jiang."
"Hahaha, Uncle Tai, you're praising him too much. His son is still young."
"Stop giving me that nonsense. Where's the tea? Bring it over right now."
"Okay, Uncle Tai."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Jiang silently pondered the things Xu Lei had told him.
Perhaps Xu Lei knew something: in Jinghai, a crackdown on organized crime was underway, and many people had already gotten into trouble.
Meanwhile, Bai Jiangbo, at the hospital, had already had his finger treated.
But soon, Uncle Tai called.
"Uncle Tai invites you over for tea."
Bai Jiangbo silently got up and got into the car. He wanted to know what Uncle Tai really meant.
When they arrived at Uncle Tai's house, they saw Xu Jiang drinking tea with Uncle Tai.
This made Uncle Tai laugh out loud.
Upon seeing Bai Jiangbo, Uncle Tai stood up and said, "Come here, Xiao Bai."
Xu Jiang looked at Bai Jiangbo's bandaged hand and said, "Hey, Lao Bai, what happened to your finger? How could you be so careless?"
Bai Jiangbo said, "Stop pretending."
Uncle Tai said, "Xiao Bai, I know you have grievances in your heart, but for my sake, let's just let this matter go. You lost, and that's it. You were outmatched, and you were the one who broke the rules first."
Bai Jiangbo looked down at his hands and remained silent.
Xu Jiang said, "Uncle Tai, I can let this matter go, but my son said he plans to handle it himself. After all, my son died once before, and he's filled with hatred. If he can't be saved, my Xu family line will end."
Uncle Tai looked at Bai Jiangbo and said, "Who is it? Tell me."
"Uncle Tai, this is not in accordance with the rules."
Xu Jiang said, "Uncle Tai, Bai Jiangbo seems to have some complaints about you."
Uncle Tai's face was cold as he said, "This tea is not bad. Send me more in the future. I'm getting old, I'm getting old. It's the young people's world now, so let them do what they want."
"Chengcheng, take Boss Bai home."
Chengcheng stood up immediately.
"Xu Jiang, come, have some more tea with me."

Chapter Seven: Chen Shuting's Analysis (Seeking support, seventh update)
Late at night, after coaxing her son to sleep, Chen Shuting looked at Bai Jiangbo, who had returned with bandages, with cold indifference in her eyes.
"Did you go see your godfather?"
Bai Jiangbo nodded and said, "Yes, I saw him and I saw Xu Jiang, but he's my godfather."
“You did not do a good job in this matter. This is your godfather’s punishment for you. He is putting you in charge of the casino management. If you continue to gamble, then the casino can be replaced.”
"For my sake, perhaps your godfather will give you a chance, but he might not be so accommodating to my feelings."
"I really don't understand why I lost to a little brat."
Chen Shuting chuckled, poured herself a cup of hot water, and said, "Lose? From the very beginning, the fact that someone dared to come to you and speak to you calmly means you've already lost."
Bai Jiangbo remained silent, listening attentively to Chen Shuting's analysis.
Jinghai, Chen Shuting, may not be a name to many, but anyone who has watched "Raging Storm" knows that this woman is definitely not ordinary.
She later married Gao Qiqiang but didn't have any children. It's clear that this woman only wanted a man who could take care of her.
In reality, many men are just tools in her eyes.
Innocence, love?
Chen Shuting never needed any of these things.
Bai Jiangbo silently lit a cigarette and said, "Didn't you see where the setup was?"
"The mahjong is yours, and the venue is yours. How do you think Xu Lei is going to set up a trap? In Uncle Tai's words, if you lose, it's because you're not skilled enough. Don't you know whether you dug a trap for yourself in the casino?"
Bai Jiangbo had nothing to say.
It's not a bad thing to lose this money.
"If you still hold a grudge, then you should honestly manage the remaining businesses well. As long as the roots are still there and the projects are still ongoing, there won't be any problems. Quickly withdraw from those shady businesses and try to stay away from them as much as possible."
"OK, I see."
After saying that, Chen Shuting went upstairs.
Bai Jiangbo watched Chen Shuting's retreating figure silently, not daring to speak, and helplessly returned to his room.
Marriage was never the case. When Chen Shuting approached Bai Jiangbo, she only wanted a man she was grooming.
Bai Jiangbo liked Chen Shuting, and Chen Shuting also wanted to have a child, so they retrieved her eggs and had an IVF baby.
However, the two did not have any physical relationship.
In Chen Shuting's words, if you want me, you can exchange the entire Jinghai for me.
She dared to say that because she believed in her own charm.
Back in her room, Chen Shuting silently looked at the information about Xu Lei.
From childhood, through school days, to recent changes.
He picked up the phone and called the person.
"Has something happened to Xu Jiang?"
