Chapter 440 Punishment

The two had been kneeling for a long time, but Juncker had no intention of getting them up!

Time passed by little by little until Betty, who was afraid to use his fighting spirit, broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. Annie could no longer watch it and said loudly: "Grandpa, what happened today has nothing to do with aunt. If you want to punish me, just punish me alone!"

Betty glared at Annie fiercely and quickly added: "Father, Annie was raised by me. She is still young and she has made a mistake. I should bear it!"

"Grandpa, one person does things and one person does it!"

"Shut up!" The old man Thunder Ting was furious, and the two of them shouted coldly, "Who dares to say more nonsense... I'll put you into the Emerald Cage together!"

Emerald Cage... Betty shivered suddenly, closed her mouth and knelt honestly.

The old man looked at them coldly for a moment and asked angrily: "Betty, stand up! Did you teach Anne's gambling skills??"

Betty stood up, not daring to touch her numb and sore legs, and lowered her head and said, "Father, I just secretly pulled Anne to play with me when my hands were itchy. But, Anne is obviously a half-bad person, and sometimes she can't even understand the rules..."

"Anne!"

Annie said calmly: "Grandpa, I was taught to play dice by my aunt when I was three years old. I could already beat my aunt when I was thirteen. But your rule is not to be gambled! So I dare not gamble myself, and I dare not show my true gambling skills in front of my aunt. I am afraid that it will arouse my aunt's interest and make her never quit gambling addiction!"

"So, your gambling skills are self-evident, and you can beat Betty at the age of thirteen. Today, you can even exchange cards with Francis and I... You are a gambling genius!" Betty and Anniko dared not take this sentence as a sincere compliment. Sure enough, Junker slapped the table and shouted: "But do you know that Margaret has arrived at the Emerald Sea. Do you know how much trouble you have brought to the family!"

Margaret is here? No wonder Grandpa made an exception today... Anne smiled faintly, "Grandpa, granddaughter is willing to bear all the consequences!"

Betty was anxious and grabbed Anne's shoulder and shouted, "Silly girl, is it worth it for Frances?? You were the heir the old man valued the most. You, you ruined your life for Frances today!"

Anne shook her head calmly, "Auntie, Anne has already thought it clearly, but... Today I denied everything in front of Frances, and I hope you don't tell him the truth in the future!"

Betty was stunned, and after a long time, he smiled bitterly, "Silly girl, is it worth it for a man who doesn't love you at all, is it worth it??" He almost yelled and questioned, and then knelt down suddenly, "Father, Anne is still young and has potential, please..."

"Betty, shut up!"

Junker stared at Annie for a moment and slowly came to her. His face was covered with clouds, but he suddenly asked, "Annie, you never show your gambling skills, don't you feel itchy in your heart? Answering my question seriously will determine what kind of punishment you will receive!"

Anne shook her head calmly, "Anne is not addicted to gambling!"

"Your skills are not addicted to gambling?" The old man frowned, "What does losing mean and winning mean in your eyes?"

Anne shook her head again without hesitation, "Today Anne denied everything in front of Frances, because Anne didn't need to get anything from Frances, and in Anne's eyes... there was no winning or losing!"

Junke's eyes flashed suddenly and he said anxiously: "Since there is no winning or losing, what is the gambling in your eyes??"

Annie raised her head in confusion, "Grandpa, is this question still meaningful now? Annie is very clear about the family's laws. This time, even if I don't die, I will be imprisoned in the Emerald Cage for life... Please send it to you!"

"Stop talking nonsense, answer my question!" Junker suddenly grabbed Annie's shoulder, exerted force with all his fingers, making Annie's face turn pale and cold sweat flow!

But Annie didn't seem to feel the pain, "Okay, I'll say..." She smiled bitterly, lowered her head and said slowly.

"When I asked Aunt Betty to force Francis to marry, I was full of confidence and wanted to gamble. It was because Francis would agree to the engagement... But the result was that Anne lost and lost a lot! But Anne also understood a truth - there would be wins and losses when there was betting. If there was betting, there would be wins and losses. If there was not to lose, I would not want to lose. Only by not betting, the real winner is the one who did not bet!"

There was a strange smile on the corner of Junker's mouth, "The winner is not gambled, right!" He slowly let go of his hand, "Get up!"

Betty was delighted, "Annie, Grandpa has forgiven you, why don't you thank me now!"

But unexpectedly...

Anne did not stand up, but continued what she hadn't finished saying, "But when Anne grew up, she saw a lot, and once thought, if I hadn't gambled back then, wouldn't it be possible for me to get Francis? Then, if I don't gamble, even though I won't lose it, I won't get anything!"

Junke's smile stopped and he stared at his granddaughter blankly.

Betty was anxious, "Silly girl! Your grandfather understands the master of 'not gambling for gambling'. At this time, you have to follow your grandfather's preferences! You can't get anything if you don't gamble... Do you want to die??" As soon as she was anxious, she told the truth!

Junker waved his hand blankly, "Annie, continue talking!"

Annie seemed to have no concern about the reactions of the two, and she said what she said...

"If you bet, you may lose! If you don't bet, you won't get anything! If you bet, you still don't bet. This problem has troubled me for a long time... Until a year ago!

I met another girl who was pursuing Francis back then - Avril! We became friends, and then... I still don't gamble. I saw the answer to this question in Avril. I asked Avril, Francis didn't know everything you have paid today. You have suffered so much that ordinary people can't imagine, just to bet on a big gamble when you meet Francis again in the future, will he fall in love with you now?

Avril told me that she never gambled, she just pursued it with sincerity! The pursuit has come, and happiness will last for a lifetime, but it will not be possible, but she will not regret it!"

Anne smiled bitterly.

"Not long ago, I met Francis again. When I mentioned Avril's promise to him, his emotions were far stronger than when I saw Anne with my own eyes! No matter what happened in the end, Avril would occupy a position in Francis' heart for the rest of her life - even if she was not a lover! But I... I have almost no position in Francis' heart, and at most I am an old classmate with a good impression!"

Annie bit her lips tightly, her eyes wet, and her voice choked, "From then, Annie knows that it was not that I shouldn't have loved Frances, but that I used the wrong method! My lover is pursued with my heart, not won back by gambling..."

Gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Anne smiled miserably and finally said, "Gambling is to get more, but if you want to get more, you don't have to use gambling methods! Doing it with your heart can also be exchanged. Even if you can't exchange it, you will lose far less than gambling! Grandpa, if you must have bet and win or lose, your granddaughter can only say that you don't gamble, and win with your heart!"

After saying a long passage, Annie lowered her head and waited for her grandfather's final verdict!

Betty was already stunned.

The old man Junke was silent for a while, and suddenly picked up the playing cards on the table, and tore them off with a 'cry'. He said something that outsiders could never imagine, "Betty, say hello to your brothers and sisters first... From today on, Anne is the first heir to the Batuk family!"

Betty suddenly widened her glasses, and Anne also looked at her grandpa blankly.

Junke suddenly laughed wildly and said a joke. At this moment, he looked like an old gangster on the street. "Damn, I had known that Annie had already realized this step and had such profound gambling skills... I would have bothered to mention what Betty did!? It's really a place to search for it... The dispute between Du Chen Divine Sect and Qinshui Lake actually forced me to have a peerless genius, haha!"

The old man suddenly turned around and stared at Betty, "Betty, now I can tell you the truth! I instructed Rondo to teach you gambling skills back then. Unfortunately, although you have enough skills in the past twenty years, your mood has never been able to reach... Otherwise, you would have been the first heir to the family!"

Betty smiled embarrassedly, "Father, then did Annie meet your requirements?"

"Wrong, it's meeting the requirements of the ancestor Thunder God Batuk!" Juncker waved his hand, regardless of whether Betty understood or not, "Betty, you should understand what I meant to be honest - don't let me know that you are jealous of Annie! Okay, you can go out, you are not qualified to know what's going on!"

Betty was stunned for a moment, then he laughed strangely and went out. Obviously, Anne was about to get something, and she lost the opportunity forever because she couldn't understand the old man's gambling realm. However... Anne, like a biological daughter, got it, which was happier than she got it! Jealous, what a jealousy is nothing?

Annie becomes the head of the family in the future. Wouldn't I beg for gambling at any time? Haha! Not long after walking out of the study, Betty released her unique, legendary, Fighting God Body Hormone Disorder Card laughter!

Just as Junker ‘reprimanded’ Anne, Du Chen and Lea were still sighing in the room.

After thinking about it, Du Chen said confidently: "It's absolutely impossible to be wrong, it must be the card that Annie changed for me!" He touched his nose, "I don't know what punishment she will be... "

"If you want to know, just go and have a look!" A voice suddenly sounded in his mind!

Du Chen's eyes lit up, "Dus, you are finally alive!"

"Hmph, when did the fifth brother die??" A mouthful of thick phlegm-like thing crawled out of Du Chen's sleeve like a maggot, and for a moment, it turned into the appearance of "Du Chen Shen"! It was very disgusting... But the fifth brother was proud and immediately roared after he was resurrected to vent the depression that had lasted for nearly ten days. "Let the storm come more violently, I, Dus, have rubbed myself to live again!!"

Lea screamed in surprise, "Dus, you hooligan!", picked up Beibei and ran out. It turned out that the fifth brother was used to not wearing any clothes...

Du Chen laughed, but Dusi shrugged indifferently. It was obvious that his shrugging movements were extremely smooth, and were no different from real human movements. They were much stronger than the stiff movements before!

Dus said: "Thank you for your blessing. Brother Fifth, I have made great progress. I can almost change the complex internal organs of the human body. It won't take long to turn into my throat and vocal cords to speak!"

Du Chen smiled, "What about me?" He has been busy since the fifth hexagram of lotus bloomed to the 20th flower, and the fifth brother who can evaluate Du Chen is still "blowing balloons", so he has not yet figured out what his own strength standard is. At this moment, the fifth brother woke up, and Du Chen's first question is naturally this!

The fifth brother sensed it for a while, "Your strength... Do you still remember the Dragon God? You can fight him, but don't think about winning, but don't be afraid of losing!"

Du Chen pondered: "That is the eleventh level superior... and the Pope is right! Well, I understand, Dus, tell me what exactly you encountered in the cave that day!"

Dus curled his lips, "No hurry, hey, aren't you worried about Anne? Do you want to go and see it with your own eyes?"

Du Chen waved his hand gently, "The Linglong Tower in the Batuk family is full of mechanisms, and we don't know the depth of the old man. I will not take this risk for something I will know sooner or later!"

Dus shook his head proudly, "It wasn't possible before, but now... nineteen, come out!"

Du Chen was shocked. On that day, Miqi successfully revived the country and opened three lotus flowers. Among them, the role of Qingyun and Fengyuan was really made Du Chen love, but Lao Shijiu disappeared and has not been found yet... Du Chen looked around and saw that after Dusi finished speaking, Lao Shijiu still had no shadow, and couldn't help but frown and said, "Where is Zijiu? Why can't my internal energy and soul sense him!?"
