The rather brief confinement period sailed past uneventfully under the careful watch of Madam Qin and Aunty Fu.

  Coincidentally, Chu He learned that Gu Jinglian had closed all the casinos under the Gu family and banned them as a family business.

  She was surprised and wondered why he did that.

  One had to know that although a casino was not a lifeline business for the Gu family, it was enough to create some impact.

  Gu Jinglian did not specifically mention this to Chu He. Butler Fu had only mentioned it by chance. He was surprised to see Chu He looking stunned.

  “Didn’t Old Master tell you about it?”


  ‘No. I didn’t even know that.’


  Butler Fu sighed and shook his head. “Old Master is afraid.”


  “Afraid?”


  “Do you know anything about the man who kidnapped you that day?”


  Chu He nodded in response. She still felt a lingering fear when she thought of what had happened that day. Especially when Gu Jinglian resolutely put on the balaclava, her heart was in her mouth!

  This man, such a proud and insufferably arrogant man, was ready to lay down his life for her and the child. She had never thought that he, who was once hailed as a demon king, would have such a soft side.

  “Afraid?” For a moment, Chu He did not understand what Butler Fu meant.

  He let on that Gu Jinglian had sent someone to settle the matter with Black Panther while Chu He was still in the hospital. The matter of Black Panther was not a complicated one to deal with. Qingjiu was not badly injured. He had fractured bones, but the drill had not gone in too deeply.

  If not for Gu Jinglian’s boldness at that point, he probably would not have been able to protect such a loyal subordinate.

  Most of the Gu family’s enemies were established in the casino business.

  In the casinos under the Gu family’s name, other than some hooligans, there were also some big shots. Among them, many had lost tens of millions or hundreds of millions overnight. In the blink of an eye, they might have gone bankrupt. nHowever, these big shots were sore losers. Therefore, because of their casino business, the Gu family had many enemies in the underworld.

  In the past, Gu Jinglian did not care because he was single. However, now that he had a wife and children, he had no choice but to reconsider.

  Other people might not have let go of such a lucrative business. After all, the daily cash flow of the casino was easily in the hundreds of millions. Moreover, this could be considered a net profit. Who would be willing to give up such a good deal!?

  Perhaps what Black Panther did really frightened Gu Jinglian. He wasn’t willing to use Chu He and his children as stakes and chips anymore. He couldn’t afford to lose. So he considered the matter carefully.

  Currently, the Gu family’s main source of revenue, other than the Gu Corporation, was the casino.

  He was determined to ban the casino, relook at the Gu Corporation business plan, and refocus his attention on the family. He wanted to spend more time with his children as they grew. Especially Qianqian.

  The birth of his daughter seemed to have injected an unprecedented gentleness into his hard heart. He wished he could spend every day with his daughter, watching her as she grew up.

  Gu Jinglian only told Butler Fu about this matter. The news also made its way through the industry.

  When they learned that the casino business was going to be banned, everyone was puzzled and shocked! They wondered why Gu Jinglian was doing this.

  Chu He was stunned for a long time when she heard this. She was deeply touched!
