Chapter 721: I Love You, Darling
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jin Long was an exceptional man, but Gong Xin found herself troubled. Jin Long was a simple countryman, with no notable family background. If they were to rashly come together, her family would inevitably find out.
Gong Xin had always been the darling of her family, cherished by her parents, protected by her brother, and adored by her relatives. The idea of her being with someone like Jin Long, who was not of equal social standing, would be hard for them to accept.
However, things had changed. It turned out that Jin Long’s family was not ordinary; they owned the Golden Sun Hotel. Such a family was a suitable match for her, the daughter of a high-ranking official. From now on, she could approach Jin Long without any reservations.
If possible, she wanted to be with Jin Long. The thought made her cheeks flush with warmth. To avoid attracting attention, Gong Xin lowered her proud head, turned her face to the side, and propped her chin on her hand. She sat quietly next to Jin Long, watching him play mahjong.
Su Shen had known Jin Long for more than a year or two and naturally knew what kind of game the young man was playing. He was envious of Su Shen’s married status and wanted to make him lose money during the mahjong game. Su Shen, however, made no comment on Jin Long’s prodigal behavior. He simply began to silently stack the mahjong tiles in front of him.
Gu Zi and Su Shen had an understanding. Seeing that Su Shen remained silent, Gu Zi also refrained from saying more. After all, more words would be of no benefit. The truth would be revealed on the mahjong table.
Because Su Shen’s table had the highest stakes, more and more spectators came to watch their game. At first, the wins and losses were fairly even. Sometimes Su Shen lost money, and sometimes Jin Long did. But after a dozen or so rounds, the balance began to shift. Jin Long was consistently losing, and Su Shen was consistently winning.
What was even more unexpected was that this situation continued until the end of the game. Su Shen won almost every round. By the end of the afternoon, Gu Zi, who was sitting next to Su Shen, had collected so much money that her hands were sore.
