This move used to be almost infallible in the past, but Gu Tingyun was unmoved, still gazing tenderly at his little lover.
He Junlin stood by, his words laced with a teasing smile, "Horse racing is all about the thrill of the beat. If everyone bets on the favorites, there's no surprise to it. What's the fun in that?"

"Number five, bet one hundred thousand." Gu Tingyun was even more decisive as he took out his card to bet.
Everyone was surprised, whispering among themselves.
"Young Master Gu is really willing to throw away a fortune just for a smile from his beauty!"
"It's a pity, though. That money's as good as gone."
"Isn't that the truth!"
...
The women were both envious and jealous. After all, a hundred thousand isn't a lot but isn't a little either, and anyone present could afford it.
