Chapter 151
Su Xiaomu felt annoyed when he thought of what Gu Jingcheng said that day that he would definitely protect her.

It just so happened that Gu Jingcheng had already returned from school at this time, so she sorted out her mood and went to talk to him.

"The current development of this matter has exceeded my expectations. For your future, the best way right now is for the two of us to separate, so...you might as well get along with me."

Su Xiaomu was silent for a while, she looked at Gu Jingcheng whose expression sank after Heli finished speaking, and explained a few words.

"I want to make peace with you, not to say...not that you are not good, but that I am really afraid of hurting your reputation. You are a student of Chunwei, so you must not compromise yourself because of my trivial matter."

Even though he said so, Su Xiaomu subconsciously wanted to leave him very much.

In her heart, Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng still think that the two of them are just living together.

She doesn't like Gu Jingcheng, what she likes is her freedom.

Su Xiaomu never thought that he would block his future for a man. Compared with freedom, love is nothing.

"You still don't believe that I can solve this matter." Gu Jingcheng raised his eyes to look at her, there was no lack of self-injury inside.

"I told you to let you believe me. Although the current matter is a bit troublesome to deal with, it is not out of nowhere. We just need to wait a little longer..."

"It doesn't matter to me, what others say about me is fine, but what about you?" Su Xiaomu asked him back, not wanting Gu Jingcheng to sacrifice anything for her, "If you really affected the imperial examination because of me, then I will feel sorry for everyone in your family."

"I won't, it won't affect me."

Gu Jingcheng answered her resolutely, just when he wanted to explain some reasoning to Su Xiaomu in detail, suddenly someone knocked heavily on the door.

Accompanied by it, there are unbearable noises.

When Su Xiaomu heard it, she stood up and her face turned cold. Could it be that someone else came to find her bad luck?

In fact, if this is the case, it would not be the first time.

There are always some boring people who like to stand on the moral high ground and accuse others, and by the way, they have nothing to do to cause trouble for others.

Su Xiaomu was also unlucky, and encountered strange things one after another.

"I gonna go see."

The sound of the person knocking on the door became louder and louder, "bang bang bang", as if trying to knock her door, which was not very strong, into pieces.

Gu Jingcheng got up and asked Su Xiaomu to retreat to the back room, and he went to open the door by himself.

After opening the door, the people they saw also made them both laugh.

"We don't owe the money. It's useless for you to come to me. Anyway, I have no money, but I can't compensate you for anything."

The ones who came to trouble Su Xiaomu were the people from the gambling shop, all of them looked fierce, don't mention it at first glance, they really frightened Su Xiaomu.

But Gu Jingcheng has been standing tightly beside her to protect her, and since the front door is her shop, if something happens, she can find someone to help in a short time, so Su Xiaomu is not very flustered.

She quickly regained her composure: "I don't take threats, so you must never try to get money from me in this way."

Su Xiaomu already hated that "Su Daqiang" very much, and it was fine if he wanted to ruin her reputation outside, but now he asked her to help him pay off the gambling house?

Sure enough, people are greedy, and a shameless person will only be more shameless when he does things. How can we expect him to have a conscience?
"Not paying back?"

The head of the gambling house is a man with a fierce face and a man with five big and three rough faces that makes people scared at first glance.

He sneered twice and then spat at Su Xiaomu.

"It's only natural to pay back the debt. You, the boy, should pay back what you owe us. Don't think that you are a delicate little lady and we dare not be rough. I'm afraid you won't be able to stand our stick!"

Everyone in the casino barked their teeth and claws, Su Xiaomu was so angry that his chest hurt.

"In public, you know that you have violated the laws of the country so early. If Mrs. Su goes to the Yamen to sue you, all of you will be imprisoned in prison. As for beating people... I am here today, see How dare you commit murder?"

Gu Jingcheng protected Su Xiaomu and would never let these people hurt her at all.

The boss of the gambler actually knew that Su Xiaomu's husband was a Juren, but he really didn't know that the relationship between the two of them was good. This Juren would risk his reputation to protect her?

Toutou's expression changed first, then he rubbed his hands together, and when he spoke again, he was not as aggressive as before.

"It's useless to raise people here. It's only natural to pay off debts. After all, Mrs. Su and the person surnamed Su are father and daughter. Now that he has no money, why don't we come to you?"

"This law does stipulate that you can't beat people, but it doesn't stipulate that we can't ask our daughters for money, right? Sir, you can't stop us from getting rich just because it's your daughter-in-law who was forced."

It was smooth and tactful, and it was clear in a few words that Gu Jingcheng lost his rules and regulations in protecting his wife.

Su Xiaomu is not stupid, so he naturally knows the hole he dug for them in his words.

It seems that if she doesn't pay back the money today, she can't get over it, so she just treats herself as unlucky and spends money to buy something clean.

But this kind of thing, she can only suffer this time anyway.

Whether it's a gambling house or other places, "Su Daqiang" must not be able to pay for the troubles caused by her outside!

So Su Xiaomu made a decision, looked directly at the head and said: "You can take the money, but I will only help him pay it once. If you come to me again next time, then we will meet directly at the yamen, no matter I have money If there is no money, I will not pay him back.”

"The big deal is to go to prison for a few days. I can afford it, so if you don't want to suffer unnecessary losses, it's best not to let him gamble with you again."

Su Xiaomu pulled Gu Jingcheng who wanted to speak for her, took out the money from his arms and threw it to the boss.

These people are just here to ask for money, and they can't make other decisions.

It's useless to tell them anything else. Besides, there are not many fuel-efficient lamps that can be recruited by gambling houses to be thugs to collect debts.

Don't cause yourself too much unnecessary trouble for them.

"Madam Su would have given me the money earlier." Seeing that her attitude was relaxed, the boss didn't care if her face was frosty now, he said proudly.

"The guest wants to gamble, but we can't keep him out. If Mrs. Su really doesn't want to spend the money, she can just take care of her father. That's your father, not ours!"

The boss was worried about the money Su Xiaomu gave him, and after confirming that the amount was correct, he took his younger brother who had come to make trouble and left.

When they disappeared, Gu Jingcheng looked at the cold-faced Su Xiaomu with a complicated expression and said, "Why don't you just take them to see the official?"

"Because I'm going by myself."

Su Xiaomu looked at Gu Jingcheng with firm eyes: "I want to end all this with my own hands."
