Having seen too many gambling tragedies, he wouldn't let himself make the same mistakes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qichi was well aware that Zhao Wentang would never bet with her on the seventh round, no matter who won or lost in the previous six rounds; he would not take that risk. The reason Zhao Wentang agreed to gamble with her was simply because he bet that she wouldn't last until the last round.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is Master Zhao really conceding?\" Ye Qichi deliberately feigned surprise on the surface, \"You're so lucky today, won't you gamble one more round?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Show our guest out!\" Zhao Wentang's face darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without any explanation, he left with his people straight away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qichi's lips curled slightly, and she turned to Lu You, \"Help the young master to leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Yes, yes!\" Lu You took a long time to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did the situation turn around so dramatically?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Yunan was also both excited and frightened at the moment. He hurriedly followed Ye Qichi and left the gambling house, swearing never to set foot in there again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving, the noble young master upstairs gently waved his fan and said, \"Ye Zhilan, right? Look into this woman.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Your Highness, Prince of Chu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A smile tugged at the corners of the Prince of Chu's mouth, his cold gaze flickering momentarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Bai Mowan, no other woman had sparked such great interest in him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the gambling house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu You's legs gave out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qichi quickly supported her, \"What's wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Scared stiff,\" Lu You admitted, feeling weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qichi smiled helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Princess, you really scared me to death just now!\" Lu You looked at the Princess, who appeared carefree, with a touch of emotion, \"If you had really lost, you would've been dead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wouldn't lose,\" Ye Qichi confidently said, \"Zhao Wentang wouldn't dare to gamble with me on the seventh round. As long as I don't concede defeat, I would win. It's just a test of mental strength, that's all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mental strength?\" Lu You had never heard this term before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qichi didn't explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She helped the wobbly Lu You as they prepared to head back to the Minister Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qi'er,\" Ye Yunan suddenly called out to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qichi looked at Ye Yunan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you,\" Ye Yunan said earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've said it before, we're family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But in the past, I wasn't good to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just be good to me from now on,\" Ye Qichi said magnanimously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Yunan was taken aback, then firmly said, \"Definitely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And my mother,\" Ye Qichi added casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Ye Yunan was not often in the inner courtyard, he was somewhat aware of the dynamics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He once again affirmed, \"I will certainly take good care of mother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Qichi smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was about to leave the Minister Mansion soon, and with Zhou Ruotang having such cunning schemes, she would be relieved only if someone took care of Qin Mengxi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, there's also the need to prevent the Minister Mansion from being exploited by the Prince of Chu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, she must secure the support of the Ye Family members as soon as possible!\u003C\u002Fp>",1326,"2026-06-03T12:20:29.194Z","2026-06-03T12:20:33.986Z",1,"novelbin.me","f65fc449f028d90e1b53ca7055b4440d5ce39e082fb2ec4a24013daa6264c803","the-prince-wants-to-assassinate-me-every-day-chapter-377","the-prince-wants-to-assassinate-me-every-day-chapter-376",1279,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-prince-wants-to-assassinate-me-every-day-cover.jpg"]
