Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.
Chapter 005 Rematch at the Gambling Den
Seeing Lin Ping using the back of his head to block, Lin Fugui panicked.
He only wanted to discipline his son, not kill him.
But the wooden stick in his hand had already been swung out, and he couldn't take it back at all.
Just as Lin Ping was about to be hit, the system voice suddenly sounded.
[Warning, warning! The host was beaten for divorcing his wife, so the mission is not considered complete!]
Doesn't that count as completing the task?
Did he die in vain?
Lin Ping panicked and quickly put his hands over his head.
Boom!
The stick struck Lin Ping squarely on the arm. The force of the impact sent Lin Ping staggering back a few steps before he landed hard on his backside.
In an instant, a tearing pain shot through my arm.
"Ping'er, Father didn't mean it. Are you alright?"
Lin Fugui was so frightened that his legs went weak.
"You heartless bastard, how dare you lay a hand on Ping'er? I'll fight you to the death!"
Lin's mother grabbed Lin Fugui's ear and pounded his chest wildly.
Although she wasn't very strong, and Lin Fugui didn't feel any pain, his mother's tears made him feel heartbroken.
He was really wrong; he shouldn't have risked teaching Lin Ping a lesson.
"My wife, I was wrong, I know I was wrong. I, Lin Fugui, swear to heaven that if I ever lay a finger on Ping'er again, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!"
Lin Fugui held up three fingers and swore an oath loudly.
"Pah, pah, pah, who told you to swear that? Good heavens, my old man just made it up, it doesn't count."
Lin's mother quickly knelt down and kowtowed.
Although she doted on Lin Ping, she didn't want Lin Fugui to make such a poisonous oath.
As long as Lin Fugui has the determination, there's no need to make absolute statements.
Lin Ping was speechless; he had taken that blow for nothing.
Furthermore, Lin Fugui will never lay a finger on him again.
He just wanted to die, why is it so difficult for him?
Lin Ping dusted himself off, stood up, and said disdainfully, "Alright, let's leave the wedding like this for now, but we can't get married right away."
"Alright, alright, we'll listen to our son!"
Upon learning that Lin Ping had agreed to the marriage, Lin's mother was as happy as a child.
Her mind was filled with images of holding her grandson.
"Son, you guys go ahead with your work, your dad and I have something to do."
Lin's mother grabbed Lin Fugui's clothes and forcibly dragged him away.
She naturally created an environment for Lin Ping and Su Lianlian to be alone.
"Su Lianlian, don't worry, I've already given you the fifty thousand taels of silver, so I won't ask for it back. But this marriage must be called off!"
Lin Ping said with unwavering certainty, his gaze utterly resolute.
He put the mission aside for now; he had no desire to have a relationship with a woman like Su Lianlian.
After all, in this era when medical care was not yet advanced, it was very difficult to treat that kind of genital disease.
The more he said that, the more Su Lianlian felt that Lin Ping was definitely hiding something.
"Lin Ping, my innocence is ruined. You want to abandon me? No way!"
Su Lianlian's answer was equally resolute.
She had already figured out a way: as long as she pleased Lin's mother, she could complete the marriage.
At that time, she will be the young mistress of the Lin family, in charge of countless riches.
To be honest, she had seen plenty of rich kids, but this was the first time she had ever met one who didn't care about 50,000 taels of silver.
She will absolutely not let Lin Ping go.
Before leaving, Su Lianlian shamelessly hugged Lin Ping in her arms, trying to wake him from his long-dormant state.
But Lin Ping remained as steadfast as a rock, unmoved, which led Su Lianlian to leave, feeling bored.
What kind of situation is this...?
Lin Ping was utterly speechless.
Judging from the current situation, Lin Fugui's path is not viable.
He had to find another way.
But besides Lin Fugui, who else would dare to beat him to death?
And it was for money.
If you really think about it, only those desperate thugs in gambling dens would kill for money.
The problem is that he always wins at gambling, and the casino owner is no longer willing to gamble with him.
Suddenly, Lin Ping realized something.
He has a cheat code!
With the ability to see through objects, he can clearly see the numbers on the dice, thus ensuring he always loses when gambling.
Thinking about this, Lin Ping was so excited that he couldn't sleep.
Unfortunately, the casino will be closed for one day and will reopen tomorrow.
The next morning, Lin Ping went to the gambling den empty-handed.
The gambling den was about to open when the owner saw him and immediately ran away.
Lin Ping knocked on the door for a long time before finally getting in.
"I've been asked to come early today, are you going to close up shop again?"
Lin Ping questioned.
"My sow is having a difficult birth, and I need to go back to take care of her. I'm afraid I won't be able to open for business for the next few days."
The gambling den owner made up a reason out of thin air.
He simply dared not face Lin Ping, this plague god.
"Fine, I'll come every day. I don't believe you'll stay closed forever, unless you stop operating altogether!"
Lin Ping sat in the chair with his hands in his pockets, looking like he had the other party completely under his thumb.
The gambling den owner was on the verge of tears; their huge business couldn't just close down because of Lin Ping alone.
"Okay, I'll bet you!"
The gambling den owner gritted his teeth in hatred, putting on a look of resignation to his fate.
"That's right."
Lin Ping smiled faintly: "However, I left in a hurry today and didn't bring any money with me. Please lend me two thousand taels first!"
"no problem!"
The casino owner readily agreed.
Lin Ping just won 40,000 taels yesterday, so he must have money at home and wouldn't default on his debt.
Moreover, if Lin Ping reneges on his debt, he has a hundred ways to kill Lin Ping.
Lin Ping went all in, throwing away all two thousand taels of silver.
"What are you doing, Young Master Lin? Let's take it slow and play it slowly. I'll bet one tael of silver this time!"
The casino owner was all smiles, his earlier arrogance completely gone.
He knew he would lose if he gambled with Lin Ping, so this was the only way he could buy time.
One or two taels of silver per time?
When will this losing streak end?
However, it's obviously impossible to get the casino owner to increase the bets.
Lin Ping could only patiently play along with the other party.
With the help of the X-ray vision function, Lin Ping was indeed able to clearly see the numbers on the dice.
He lost the first round without any suspense, losing one or two taels of silver.
Won?
The casino owner was somewhat incredulous.
Has Lin Ping's winning streak been broken by him?
Could it be that Lin Ping was just lucky yesterday but had bad luck today?
But he didn't dare to increase the stakes immediately.
And so, after five rounds, Lin Ping lost every single one.
The gambling den owner was torn; he wanted to increase the stakes, but he was also worried that this was a trick used by Linping.
Maybe Lin Ping is deliberately trying to lure him in, letting him taste the sweetness first before reaping the benefits in one fell swoop. He's used this trick so many times that he won't fall for it.
But Lin Ping lost the next ten games in a row.
The casino owner had a bad feeling. Something was wrong. Even if someone had the worst luck, they couldn't lose fifteen rounds in a row.
It must be Lin Ping who's behind this.
But he couldn't resist the temptation and increased the stakes to fifty taels of silver.
Seeing the gambling den owner's trembling appearance, Lin Ping was utterly speechless.
He just wants to lose some money, can't you just stop making it so complicated?
