Pei Runnian woke up Pei Xinggao just to confirm whether his guess was consistent with the actual battle. Even his stern look when he was disciplining his son just now was just for Pei Xinggao to see.

If not for this, Pei Runnian, who had already decided to give up Pei Xinggao, would not bother to waste time on Pei Xinggao doing these useless things.

The information Pei Xinggao finally gave was indeed almost the same as Pei Runnian's guess, and even the bloodstains and injuries on Pei Xinggao's body were given a reasonable explanation.

This confirmed his guess and also revealed Chu Longtu's trump card, allowing Pei Runnian to know in advance the means that Chu Longtu might use.

When you face Chu Longtu in the ring one day, you don’t have to worry about being caught off guard.

As for whether Chu Longtu has other cards up his sleeve, that would depend on subsequent pressure and testing.

After hesitating for a moment, Pei Runnian glanced at Pei Xinggao and said in a cold voice.

"Although I didn't do a very good job this time, I did find out Chu Longtu's trump card by accident, so your merits and demerits are offset."

After Pei Xinggao heard Pei Runnian's words, the big stone that had been hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground, but he still kept his head down and dared not speak, for fear that he would say something wrong and be scolded by Pei Runnian.

Fortunately, Pei Runnian did not scold him this time, but changed the subject.

"We issued a ban before, and no one in the entire Hedong dared to give Chu Longtu and his men a place to use as a base."

"Now that Chu Longtu has made a bet with you and has forcibly taken a villa from the Pei family as a base, if this news gets out, even though those people may not dare to say it openly, they will inevitably laugh at the Pei family in their hearts."

"Furthermore, Chu Longtu has taken over the villa. If he knows the rules of Hedong, he will soon hold a dinner party in the villa to make a public appearance and show that he has truly planted a flag in Hedong."

"If he really succeeds, then how can our Pei family still have the face to stay in Hedong?"

"The person who was publicly banned by the Pei family was able to take over a base right under the nose of the Hedong Pei family, and even held a grand debut dinner. By then, those old guys in Hedong might not only laugh at the Pei family in their hearts, but dare to make fun of the Pei family openly."

"How can we let them succeed in doing something like this?"

Pei Runnian said this coldly, his eyes once again fixed on Pei Xinggao, and he spoke in a tone that brooked no rejection.

"Since this matter started with you, the follow-up matters should be handled by you."

"Besides, I had a duel with Chu Longtu's master, Wanbian Yixian, back then. If I were to go down and embarrass Chu Longtu myself, I'm afraid people would accuse me of bullying the weak. It's only right for you to represent the Pei family and fight against Chu Longtu."

"I will tell the butler to assign you a group of people. You don't need to do anything else. Just keep an eye on Chu Longtu and take care of him."

"No matter what, we can't let Chu Longtu hold this debut dinner happily. Do you understand?"

Pei Runnian stared at Pei Xinggao with eyes like an eagle. Even though Pei Xinggao did not see Pei Runnian's eyes, he still clearly felt the coldness and pressure contained in that gaze, which made cold sweat slowly seep out of his forehead and slowly slide down his cheeks.

Deep down, Pei Xinggao was already feeling timid.

No matter how famous he is, he is far behind Chu Longtu, a grandmaster who fought his way out of blood and fire with swords and guns and once reached the pinnacle of Hua Jin, in terms of vision, experience and personal ability.

If they really come into confrontation, the outcome will be just like the gambling fight that just happened. Pei Xinggao seems to have the advantage, but Chu Longtu will still find an opportunity to turn the tables and kill him.

Especially when recalling the moment when Wang Feng was killed by Chu Longtu in his memory, Wang Feng's shocked and desperate eyes seemed to still flash before his eyes, making Pei Xinggao, a pampered young man, feel terrified when he thought about it now.

If he were to go through a few more duels like this, Pei Xinggao would really doubt whether he would still be alive.

He wanted to refuse, but the words were on the tip of his tongue and he couldn't say them.

He had just been severely reprimanded by Pei Runnian for shirking responsibility and saying the wrong thing, and was even threatened that if it happened again, he would be deprived of his position as heir.

If Pei Xinggao says now that he doesn't want to continue the tit-for-tat fight with Chu Longtu, what will Pei Runnian do?

The next generation heir to the Pei family actually evades responsibility and doesn't want to fight against the enemies of the Pei family?

This reason alone is enough for Pei Runnian to completely deprive him of his status as heir and send him directly to eternal damnation, where he will never be able to be reborn!

Therefore, in order to maintain his position as the heir to his family, Pei Xinggao had no choice!

Pei Xinggao gritted his teeth and spoke in a low voice.

"Father said so."

"I promise that no matter how much it costs, I will make Chu Longtu restless and will never let him hold the dinner in peace!"

Pei Runnian's expression did not change at all when he heard this, he just nodded lightly.

Since the main business had been discussed, Pei Runnian was about to ask the guest to leave. However, at this moment, a servant of the Pei family came in quickly. Without looking at Pei Xinggao, he bowed respectfully and spoke in a deep voice.

"Master, there was news from outside just now."

"Chu Longtu, who was banned by the family, has just announced that they have taken over Dahe Villa and will turn it into a resort and leisure area integrating casinos, restaurants, and entertainment, and make it their iconic landmark in Hedong."

"They have also decided to hold a dinner party at Dahe Villa in three days and announce the official opening of the casino. We welcome all colleagues from Hedong to attend the ceremony."

After saying this, the servant presented an exquisite invitation with both hands.

"This is the invitation that someone just delivered to the door. Please take a look."

However, after he finished speaking, Pei Runian did not immediately accept the invitation. Instead, he and Pei Xinggao looked at the invitation in a daze, with shock and astonishment in their hearts rolling like the tide.

Pei Runnian couldn't help but look at the time on his watch.

Less than two hours have passed since Pei Xinggao and Wang Feng were sent back to the Pei family.

As a result, in just two hours, Chu Longtu had already decided the opening time of the casino?

Three days later?

What a joke! ?

It took Chu Longtu three days to set up a casino. Did he really think he was Ma Liang with the magic brush, who could make something come true with just a stroke?

Three days is not enough time to open a casino, let alone decorate it!

What exactly does Chu Longtu want to do by announcing such absurd news to the entire Hedong?
