When Gu Yusheng had won nearly ten rounds, the phone of Master Wang, who was sitting to the right of Gu Yusheng, started ringing.

It was a text message. Master Wang took a look at the phone as he picked his tile. He shook his head and resignedly put his phone back on the table. "It's an alert that my wife bought something with my credit card."

After he had said that, Master Wang's cell phone rang again. He peeked at it and saw it was another reminder text from the bank. This time, he didn't even bother picking up his phone. Instead, he refocused on his tiles and tossed one out. Within a minute, his phone rang several times.

Master Yang, sitting across from Master Wang, saw it and couldn't help smiling and saying, "Master Wang, it looks like your wife went crazy shopping with your card."

Master Wang laughed, but didn't look surprised. "My wife has always been like this. She gets unhappy if she doesn't get a chance to shop like this once a while."

"It's not just your wife. The old and young in my family are the same way." Master Yang meant his wife who had been married to him for over twenty years and his daughter who just had her eighteenth birthday. "They don't just spend your money. Every festival, they also ask for gifts. Wasn't it Chinese Valentine's day a few days ago? I just bought my wife a condo. My daughter asked for a car."

"Right, right, right. My wife not only asks for gifts during all the festivals, she also asks to go shopping once I have more money coming in. I took her to Chanel last night, and she bought a bunch of stuff there. She bought even more today." Master Wang seemed relieved to find people who had the same experience. He looked like he couldn't agree more.

"Isn't there a saying? Men are responsible for bringing bread to the household, while women are responsible for spending money on looking pretty?" Master Yang agreed. He chitchatted a bit more before he noticed that Gu Yusheng and Lu Bancheng hadn't said anything. He picked up his tile and said, "Master Lu is still young and has no girlfriend yet. He might not be interested in the topic. Master Gu, I remember you're"

As he talked, Master Yang turned around to Gu Yusheng and flattered him. "Master Gu must spend a lot of money on Ms. Liang."

Gu Yusheng had been quiet for a long time. When he heard what Master Yang said, he looked up and casually took a look at Master Yang.

Gu Yusheng didn't reply. Only the corners of his mouth curled down. He looked down and played with the tile in his hand. It seemed that what Master Yang and Master Wang had discussed had nothing to do with him. However, it had actually made him think.

He didn't have many memories about Liang Doukou, but he remembered her asking for gifts many times.

He hadn't bothered giving her gifts. He had pretended not to hear her requests. In his memory, he hadn't given her any gifts since they met.

He hadn't given her any gifts, but she had never asked for gifts again after she moved into the house.

"Master Gu?" Master Wang called Gu Yusheng. Gu Yusheng looked up slightly and realized that he had gotten lost in his head and hadn't tossed his tile out yet. He took a quick look at his tiles and randomly tossed one out before he turned his head sideways to look out the door.

He was sitting next to the door. When he turned his head, he could see everything in the living room, including the women gathered together and chatting in excitement.

They were having such a good time, but Liang Doukou was not among them.
