Young Master Ye's expression did not change even after being praised. He stepped forward and clasped his fists, complimenting him in a neither humble nor overbearing manner:
"Grandpa, thank you! Your kindness is a blessing to the younger generation, and I am grateful."
"Okay! Children can be taught, hahaha!" Chu Xiong said happily.
Immediately, he glanced at Chu Yun.
Different from talking and laughing with Mr. Tong at night, there was an obvious murderous look in his eyes.
Even though he only scanned a corner, Hu Tou's heart still didn't feel tight.
He immediately lowered his head anxiously and hid quietly behind Young Master Ye.
At this time, in response to Chu Xiong's order, Chu Yun ordered someone to bring a strong man with five-flowered clothes.
The tiger head curiously raised the corners of his eyes to look...
Suddenly, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he almost blurted out in surprise.
Isn’t that man the one who lost the bet on the stone field—Kong Wu?!
While Hu Tou asked in his mind, "Why is he here?", he also realized that the atmosphere today was very unkind.
Kong Wu was pushed in, cursing unconvinced.
It wasn't until he saw Chu Xiong's gloomy face that he restrained his arrogance.
This time there was no need for anyone to coerce him, he fell to his knees on the ground with a thud.
He walked on his knees, crawled a few steps toward Chu Xiong, and begged for mercy:
"My ancestors spared Xiao Xiao once. Xiao Xiao realized his mistake and won't dare to do it again next time!"
Everyone present could see that although Kong Wu looked frightened, there was no trace of remorse in his expression.
He was like a spoiled person who didn't take this seriously at all.
Unfortunately, this time Chu Xiong was not as amiable as he expected.
Chu Xiong sneered slightly, his slow and cold voice mixed with subtle disappointment:
"When I thought you were young and energetic, I kept giving in, but I didn't know that your stubbornness was hard to change. Not only did you ruin your great future, but you also gambled away your life."
"Do you know what I hate the most? People who are willing to gamble but refuse to admit defeat and live in an ignoble existence. If you dare to gamble, you will either live or die!"
Hearing the abandonment in Chu Xiong's words, Kong Wu really panicked this time, crying and shouting, and begging in panic:
"Ancestor, I was wrong, I was wrong, please do it again... ah——"
The cry for mercy still echoed in the hall, but Kong Wu's head was in a different place.
