Chapter 156 A Lucky Streak
That was what Silas had always wanted to know, but their relationship had never been more than just
friends. To him, she was like a boat aimlessly traveling on the sea. Desperate, he couldn’t wait to get
close to her, but since she wasn’t making her move, he decided to pick up his pace. Soon, Gianna let
out a sigh as she set her eyes on somewhere far away, seemingly looking back on her past. After a
while, she said, “Alas! I had a tough time when I first got there. I was unfamiliar with the place and
worse, I even ran into a bunch of thugs who surrounded and tried to mess with me. At that time, I was
pregnant for two months, so can you imagine how scared I was? was defenseless and vulnerable
against these people, but as I thought fate had caught up with me, a senior of mine came to my rescue.
Besides that, when I was diagnosed with signs of possible preterm labor, he was the one who helped
me deliver my child safely. So, South and I are actually in his debt: Subsequently, he offered us a place
to stay at his clinic. After I became my master’s disciple, our life was finally stable from that point

to know, especially when my master was away in the following year. Sometimes, I didn’t even get to
see him for months.” Upon hearing Gianna’s story, Silas finally understood why Gianna and her son
always mentioned her senior. No wonder they always talk about him. I didn’t know he’s so important to
them. “So, your hard work has finally paid off now, I guess.” “Well, at least I no longer have to put up
with anyone else who gets on my nerves,” Gianna said with a smile while Şilas only silently pondered.
Well, she is technically right because she doesn’t care if I’m not happy with her anyway. “Here. A toast
to your hard work!” “That’s worth a toast. You did well, Gianna” Gianna laughed and said. Yeah, you did
well, Gianna, Silas thought to himself.
As they continued to drink, the red wine bottle was soon getting low. At the same time, Silas began to
feel more excited the more he drank. “How about we play a little game?” “What game?” Gianna tilted
her head and gazed at the man.
“Do you have some dice at home?” Gianna was happy when she heard that suggestion because a
game would at least spare her the awkward moment. “Are we going to play a game with a dice? I got it.
Just give me a moment!” Not long after, she returned with four dices and a dice cup. “Here you go. So,
how are we going to play this game?” At that moment, Silas had already prepared three glasses of
wine and placed one in the center of the table while the other two were put on each side in front of
them. Then, he looked at her and explained, “We’re going to see which of us gets a bigger number
after rolling the dice. If you don’t think you stand a winning chance, you could finish the wine and roll
the dice again, but if you think you do, we’ll reveal the dice right away. The loser will have to finish all
three glasses of wine. Otherwise, he or she could choose to reveal a secret instead as an alternative to
drinking.” Meanwhile, Gianna looked at Silas, thinking that the game seemed like a good way to kill
time, so she agreed to go along. In fact, she wasn’t even scared of drinking and playing games. In the
first round, her dice revealed seven pips, but when she shifted her eyes to Silas, she noticed his
complacent look, believing that her number was smaller than his. Therefore, she chose to finish her
own wine before continuing. In the next round, Gianna’s dice showed four pips, feeling irritated

calmly and asked with a smile. “Are we going to reveal them now?” Gianna asked herself, What else
can I do? “Reveal the dice!” However, it turned out that Silas’s dice were at five, which was just slightly
more than Gianna’s number. Therefore, Gianna’s eyes fell upon Silas, carefully contemplating his
motive. I may be a heavyweight, but I’d get drunk drinking at this rate. While Silas thought he’d lose this
time, Gianna got a result with a smaller number than he did. As the game continued, both of them
became obsessed with the game in which Gianna lost every time. In fact, the red wine on the table was
all finished by her. In the subsequent round, Silas’s dice showed eleven pips. As he thought he’d finally
lose, he was once again surprised by his own lucky winning streak. Although it seemed that fate would
be on his side again this time, he decisively finished the glass of red wine that was placed before him.
