Upon hearing Qi Shaoze's words, Chu Yu felt uneasy. He was sure Qi Shaoze had a plan to harm Huo Zong when he dared to bring up this topic with such confidence. He couldn't let Huo Zong fall into Qi Shaoze's trap.
Subconsciously, he glanced towards the study room door, hoping Gu Qingcheng would appear in time to stop Qi Shaoze's scheme. However, the door remained tightly closed in the distance, showing no intention of opening.
He looked at Huo Sicheng with worry.
Huo Sicheng: "I won't bet with you."
Qi Shaoze: "I didn't expect General Huo to be afraid too."
Huo Sicheng: "You're not worthy."
Qi Shaoze's face stiffened, seemingly surprised by Huo Sicheng's disregard for him.
"It's not that I'm not worthy, it's that you're afraid to bet with me, General Huo," he gave himself a way out, "you're afraid of losing to me and losing face."
Huo Sicheng: "Believe what you want."
