Chapter 991 - Self-Control
Dive into Chapter 251 of "My Super Beautiful Lady Boss": This kid lost 30,000 yuan back then. Guo Ruojunâs family wasnât well-off, so that money... Find out more!
This kid lost 30,000 yuan back then. Guo Ruojunâs family wasnât well-off, so that money was practically his lifeline.Actually, many people lost badly at that time. Later, even the school stepped in to intervene in the situation, so many people stopped playing. But Guo Ruojun kept playing. Many people thought he was crazy, and some even mocked him. However, at that time, Guo Ruojun had set a very clear goal for himself: he allowed himself to win only fifty yuan a day, while his loss threshold was fifty as well. This strict self-control earned him a lot of admiration. It was all about controlling human nature to the extreme.
From his freshman year to junior year, it took him a full three years to recover all the money he lost, and even made a little profit. When he finally won back the money, Su Xuan still remembers that the kid treated everyone to a meal. Su Xuan knows this person so well because when he had a breakdown, Su Xuan lent him a thousand yuan. At the time, Su Xuan didnât expect him to pay it back; he just wanted him to understand that money doesnât come easily.
At that time, Guo Ruojun said to Su Xuan, "Su Xuan, thank you for your kindness today. In three years, I will pay you back with interest."
It took three years, a full three years. When Guo Ruojun finally got all the money back, it truly surprised those who knew about it because no one expected he would really keep at it.
Even Su Xuan was very impressed. What kind of patience and willpower would it take for someone to accomplish this? People like Guo Ruojun are very rare. To be able to handle it as if heâs operating a computer is something admirable. Guo Ruojun spent three years becoming truly adept, and that was truly something to be admired.
Even Su Xuan thought that he himself didnât have that sort of endurance. Three years, a full three years - over a thousand days and nights, continuously persisting with such determination. Honestly, those who knew back then were very impressed with this guy, and everyone called him the Gambling God.
However, at that time Guo Ruojun just gave a slight smile and said, "What Gambling God? No matter how skilled a gambler is, itâs all just a fifty percent chance. To succeed in the casino, the most important thing is mindset; mental strength is almost the key to determining success or failure."
Everyone then understood that the real decisive factor in a casino is not your skills or luck; the most important thing is mindset. Good mental strength is the truly crucial factor. Without good mental strength, even the best skills are doomed to fail.
Of course, Su Xuan was an exception. Heâs what youâd call a Qian. Su Xuan was entirely cheating. What they were playing with were dice, and for Su Xuan, he could see the numbers from the dice through his Primordial Qi, which gave him an unbeatable advantage.
But people like Su Xuan are few and far between. In fact, in the whole of Huaxia, there arenât one or two like him, so Su Xuan felt that Guo Ruojun was amazing.
Back then, Su Xuan once said, "This kid, once he enters society, will definitely be a formidable character. If someone like him doesnât succeed, thereâs no justice in the world."
Sure enough, when Guo Ruojun left school, with that kind of strong mental strength and endurance, he quickly made a name for himself. By the third year, he had already become a success, truly fought his way to it with his own ability.
"Wow, won again, Su Xuan, youâre amazing!"
At that moment, Shu Xin felt really happy. He had never imagined he could be so happy, even gambling with Su Xuan could be so enjoyable. He used to dislike this the most.
"Alright, letâs stop playing. This is enough to buy a bottle of Lafite. Come on, Iâll take you for a drink!"
Su Xuan smirked. Honestly, these werenât any challenge for him. For him, he could ruin these so-called casino masters in minutes. Apparently, even the so-called National Husband, Wang Zicong, was played by him to the point of losing over a billion. But Su Xuan wasnât really interested in these people; they were just not challenging enough for him.
"What, not playing anymore? I was just getting into it?"
Shu Xin said with a little disappointment. In fact, he who was known as the Gambling Hero, the master of psychology, had never truly played these things. He had always just talked about it, but today he finally realized what it meant to âthrow money and collect money.â
"Uh, isnât your theory about knowing when to stop? Alright, letâs go!"
Su Xuan dragged the somewhat reluctant Shu Xin back to the bar, and when Shu Xin returned to the bar, he was so excited and said.
"Ruqiu, itâs such a pity you didnât come to see it. Look, this hundred yuan has become ten thousand yuan. Wow, the bodyguard is amazing; the luck is unbelievable!"
Shu Xin said excitedly, and Shen Ruoqiu, with a dark line on her forehead, weakly said.
"Little Shu, arenât you the self-proclaimed President of the Anti-Gambling Committee? How come you seem to want to gamble more than anyone else?"
"Uh... this, this is called know yourself and know your enemy, and you shall never lose a battle. I think I was too lacking in practical experience before. Bodyguard, youâre right. I used to rely on my looks, alas, itâs really sad. Clearly, I could rely on my talent, but ended up relying on my looks. Ruqiu, I feel so pathetic!"
At this moment, Shu Xin had a look of being very hurt.
"Pfft..."
Su Xuan was speechless, looking at Shu Xin, and said.
"I said, how can you be even more narcissistic than I am? And you say know yourself and know your enemy? If you had to work in a rehab center, would you go and take drugs yourself?"
Su Xuan said speechlessly, and when Su Xuan finished, Shu Xin blushed and said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Ahem, well, thatâs not what I meant. But Su Xuan, I really think youâre too amazing!"
At this moment, Shu Xin was truly blown away by his admiration for Su Xuan, thinking he was really powerful, a real talent.
And at this moment, a waiter had already brought over a glass of red wine. When the red wine was placed on the table, Su Xuan said.
"Waiter, bring me a bottle of Erguotou!"
Su Xuan still didnât like drinking red wine because he thought it really had no flavor at all.
