Chen Yuanshu, who can make a living on her own, has a Porsche in the garage and drives a Maserati. She's the kind of woman who can make Ye Yan Zhao eat his words, and back then, she dared to go against her family's strong opposition and take two bags of cash to the underground casino on Chongming Island to bail someone out. She's definitely not an ordinary woman.
But she would cry her heart out if she heard that her uncle, who was more like a father to her than her biological one, had been murdered by the Jiangsu and Zhejiang gangsters in Zhoushan. When she saw her boyfriend, who had gone crazy after kneeling on Chongming Island and begging her to take his ransom as a bet, slap him in the ear, it still hurt her hand, hurting to the bone. Chen Yuanshu knew better than anyone that Miss Chen was not a woman who could withstand all kinds of poison, she would feel pain in her shoulders from shouldering heavy responsibilities at work, and want to hide behind someone, even when cutting her hand while cooking in the kitchen, she would think of relying on someone, but didn't know who to show her pitiful side to.
Chen Yuanshu didn't turn around, afraid to see that pale and thin face, a smile that she had never thoroughly examined. She felt guilty, today was her intention to test him, set up this trap, he jumped in and couldn't get out, it seemed like she had some responsibility. She didn't turn around, the person behind her also didn't speak, making Chen Yuanshu very embarrassed, just like being in a bathroom with a man peeking at her back through weak glass, she suddenly turned around, staring at that clean face, angrily saying: "Why do you keep on gambling? Do you know I might be as sinister as Fang Jie and stab you again? Even if I didn't collude with Yu Hanliang to trap you, he alone could make you lose everything, one hundred several tens of millions, you really think it's a small number? If someone grasps this handle and doesn't let go, stabs it at Fang Jie and Chen Fusheng, a man losing once is not scary, the scariest thing is not knowing when to stop. In my life, two important men died from gambling, do you want to be the third? I won't give you this opportunity, that money, consider it as the cost of being with me, you love what flowers, then go spend on them, one cut and we're done, in the future you walk your own path and I'll walk mine."
Chen Ergou seemed to be unaware of the severity of the problem and smiled carelessly: "So angry?"
"You mean I should only get angry when I'm left to collect your corpse from the casino, reminiscing about our past affection?" Chen Yuanshu's anger was already simmering, but seeing his nonchalant attitude was like adding fuel to the fire. Who doesn't have unspoken grievances pent up inside? This directly poked at Chen Yuanshu's most hidden and painful wounds, causing her usual calm demeanor to change, and her beautiful face, which didn't reveal her true age, to become filled with rage.
Chen Yuanshu, born into a family of officials and influenced by the high-level business world, has an extraordinary aura that is particularly eye-catching and piercing on women. Ordinary men may just see her attitude and become speechless, but the guy in front of her, although his palms are already sweating, manages to maintain a smile, not stiff or forced. It's clear that he hasn't wasted his time following Wei Gonggong for a while, and after experiencing the recent siege by Fang Jie, Xia He, and Qian Lao Yezi, he calmly says: "Sister, have you sentenced me to death?"
"Don't call me sister." Chen Yuanshu stretched out her hand and was about to throw away that suit jacket.
"My black wolf will never lose, so you can keep your money, not a single cent will go into Yu Hanliang's pocket."
Chen Ergou finished speaking, Chen Yuanshu had already slammed his coat to the ground. Chen Ergou's heart tightened, and he slowly squatted down to pick it up, dusting off the dirt. "I knew I'd lose the third round," he said. "After that Bitou dog I personally trained lost in the first round, I was sure of this point. I just wanted to see how far Yu Hanliang would push me. This dog-fighting arena has been profitable for Wei Ye because he never rigs the matches or takes bribes. But Yu Hanliang is clearly not as clean. He started taking bets, so the arena began making huge profits. Who got fat from it? It's obvious. Sister, don't ask how I found out about this. That Bitou dog lost suspiciously, proving my theory. The method was a bit clumsy - applying medicine to the dogs' bodies. Outsiders can't tell, but I'm not familiar with my own dogs' endurance yet. Sister, I have no money, so for now, I'll just use your hands to lure out Yu Hanliang's fox tail."
Unaware of the situation, Chen Yuanshu's heart was turbulent upon hearing these words. Her face changed dramatically as she looked down at the man who continued to pat his clean jacket, which had long been dust-free. He remained squatting on the ground, speaking slowly and calmly: "Sister, after being with you for so long, don't you still understand me? Not to mention tens or hundreds of thousands, even if it's just a few dollars, I wouldn't spend it recklessly on myself. Just like this jacket, although it was bought by the Fang family, you can be sure that years later, you'll still see me wearing it."
If Wang Hu was present, he would say that this guy doesn't spend money on anything except buying cigarettes and books. Wang Jiefang would also tell Chen Yuanshu that Dog Brother isn't unwilling to spend money, Dog Brother spends a lot of money without hesitation, and when buying cigarettes and wine for his brothers, he never frowns. Chen Qing would also tell her that without that card, Chen Fusheng is now a complete pauper.
Chen Ergou raised his head and said, "I often gamble. In Zhangjiashan, I like to rely on this trickery to deceive those who only think about taking advantage of me, the big and small bastards. To be honest, I've been beaten and scolded in the village and at school, but I've never lost a single cent. Maybe someday I'll lose, maybe I'll die at the gambling table like you said, but it won't be today, and I definitely won't use your money, nor will I let you bail me out."
Chen Ergou put the coat back on Chen Yuanshu's body, grasped her icy hands and gently rubbed them warm, saying softly: "Sister, if you're still angry, slap me a few times, I promise not to fight back."
Chen Yuanshu, with her delicate hands grasped, gently shook her head. A warm feeling spread from her hands to her heart, and she smiled: "If I were to fall, a vengeful man like you would definitely return it twofold. I'm afraid that by then, I'd be at an even greater disadvantage. Fang Jie and Xia He are precedents."
"Sister, your hands are really beautiful." Chen Ergou suddenly exclaimed in surprise, marveling at how Chen Yuanshu's slender and long fingers seemed to have found a perfect balance between plumpness and boniness. The feeling of her hands was just right, and even an old man who had been through many battles on the bed would have a deep conviction that some women could make a man crazy with just their two hands. Chen Ergou hadn't reached that level of lechery yet, but he sincerely admired the beauty of Chen Yuanshu's hands, especially after her slender fingers warmed up, they felt like holding a piece of warm jade that was more luxurious than soap, making one feel comfortable all over.
Chen Yuanshu did not expect him to come up with such a sentence, and was both annoyed and embarrassed. Chen Er Gou initially had no ulterior motives, just like Chen Qingzhi observing oracle bones, but even with Chen Yuanshu's open-mindedness, she couldn't resist his casual touching and pinching, reluctantly withdrawing her hand and laughing scolded: "Not enough to look at, dare to flirt with sister?"
"Sister, take another look at me? I've never seen such a beautiful hand." Chen Ergou said with a silly smile, learning from Chen Fugui's silly and stupid charm, almost able to fake it, but in his heart he was thinking that he had never noticed women's hands before, and tonight he would study his wife Cao Jingjian's hands first, then Chen Ergou couldn't help but think of some erotic knowledge he had learned from the outspoken Wang Huzeng and the experienced Wang Jiefang, suddenly... ...burning with desire. Looking at Chen Yuanshu again, who was always calm and composed, Chen Ergou's heart occasionally flashed with obscene thoughts, even his gaze at Chen Yuanshu was slightly different. Chen Yuanshu, who had seen all sorts of strange things in her life, caught the subtle expression on Chen Ergou's face very keenly, but for many reasons she didn't expose him on the spot, and calmly pretended not to see it.
This point can be understood without being explicitly stated and is nipped in the bud by both parties.
The people who hurt others the most in life are definitely those men and women who have a vague sense of distance, perfect and flawless, with everything going their way, but this is just a naive wish. Especially when it comes to emotions, Chen Ergou may not understand this principle, but Chen Yuanshu is not an ignorant girl, she knows how to be cautious and grasp the situation.
In fact, Chen Yuanshu was warm and moved in her heart, almost blurting out that even if it really came to the point of paying a ransom for someone's life, she would be the first one to call her. But ultimately, she held back. This is the difference between a mature woman and an immature girl. The latter may give her body to a man while fantasizing about the future, whereas the former will quickly calculate whether she is in a safe period after a moment of impulsiveness and whether she needs to take birth control pills.
——————————
As expected by Chen Ergou, he lost the third game. Not only did Chen Ergou think that this man's methods were too arrogant, but even Chen Yuanshu felt that after Wei Gonggong's death, this man had become the number one master of the dog fighting arena and was recklessly blind. She coldly said: "The golden signboard that Wei Gonggong painstakingly operated for six or seven years might be smashed in his hands one day. Building and maintaining credibility is harder than ascending to heaven, but destroying it is easy. Just based on this point, Yu Hanliang is far inferior to Wei Gonggong."
"If I could make a few hundred million in one night, I might also take a gamble. Don't talk to me about long-term development or sustainable business, it's useless. Only when there are bags and bags of cash is it real." Chen Erdou laughed and said, "Give me 100 million and I really have the urge to grab it and run back to Zhangjiashan to live a life of ease."
"You are different from him, Yu Hanliang has followed Jiuchengshu in Nanjing and is considered a worldly person. Sitting in that position with only a narrow-minded chest is a sin, just like standing on Mount Tai but having only the view of Chicken Mountain. No wonder the lower-ranking people are not convinced."
Chen Yuanshu glanced at Chen Ergou, after experiencing the thrill of life and death just now, Chen Yuanshu's usual reserved attitude towards everyone had relaxed a bit. She didn't mind that Chen Ergou was sitting too close to her at this moment. With a light smile, she said: "Fosheng, when you've solidified your current position, thoroughly stabilized the Fang family and Old Man Qian, you won't be tempted by a few bags of money anymore. Ten million? When you accumulate your first ten million in life, don't forget to discuss your ideals and ambitions with me again."
The nominal last game of the gambling party was between a North Caucasian Shepherd brought by Old Man Wei Gongde from Zhongshan Golf and that mysterious Japanese Tosa, Old Man Wei sat in a chair in the northeast direction, not on the spectator stand, this is a habit he had developed since the first day the dog fighting arena was built, everyone got used to it and didn't dare to go up and try to get close to him, who would dare ignore the polite greetings of the old man? Outsiders don't know, but at least they only knew that the old man was a bit like a mute.
The Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang dog fighting circles are all too familiar with this old man's viciously raised beast, the Caucasian Shepherd Dog. With its previous propaganda, it seemed like they were hiding something, unwilling to reveal their true strength. So, most players bet their lives on the Caucasian Shepherd Dog winning. The one holding the leash of the Tosa is a young man with a face and physique that rivals Wang Jiefang's, with a gentle and elegant demeanor, but not as effeminate as Zhao Kunpeng. He's a handsome young man who wouldn't make mature women feel uneasy. With just one glance at the Tosa, you can tell it's a top-notch fighting dog, full of vigor. The pair exudes an air of confidence, and if they lose this match, all winning dogs tonight will be allowed to continue challenging, showing off their arrogance.
"That Tosa is no ordinary one." This was the first thought of all the gang members including Chen Ergou.
Chen Yuanshu was a complete outsider, only seeking excitement, and after returning to the dog fighting arena, she had no interest in winning or losing. She even hoped that the North Caucasian Shepherd would lose, so that Hei Chai would have a chance to go on stage. Anyway, the final 1 million yuan bet was placed on Tosa's loss. Although it was unclear what Hei Chai's combat strength was, she had a kind of blind trust in her younger brother, who never spoke boastfully and only focused on making shocking moves.
Yu Hanliang sat calmly in his seat, glancing at Chen Er Gou sitting next to Chen Yuan Shu with a cold smile. He was initially worried that the guy would lose to the North Caucasian Shepherd Dog, but if he could beat him three times in a row, Yu Hanliang would be thrilled. Unlike the Stone Qingfeng Club, which barely made a profit, this was a treasure trove. If he won just one more round tonight, and added the 10 million from Chen's sister, he would win a total of 34 million. He knew better than anyone the combat capabilities of that Tosa-level dog. If it were only a Tosa-level dog, it wouldn't be enough to make Yu Hanliang dare to let the players bet heavily on the North Caucasian Shepherd Dog. He had personally watched a match between the Tosa and a seed dog in the fighting arena, and the result was a one-sided slaughter. This Tosa was simply the best among all Tosa-level fighting dogs. Such a dog could almost be described as invincible, except in top international underground dog-fighting arenas. And tonight, Old Man Wei hadn't even brought his most ferocious Shandong Hua Tiao, which made Yu Hanliang breathe a sigh of relief. In one night, he would earn 60 million, and the fighting arena held nearly 40 matches per year. Yu Hanliang didn't dare say that he could make over 200 million in a year, but making 100 million was no problem. The key was that this 100 million didn't need to be taxed, it was almost pure profit. And most importantly, this astronomical sum was all cash. When the time came, Yu Hanliang would have many things he could do. He wasn't just a fool who only knew how to squander money; he wanted to do what even Wei Duan Gong couldn't do.
This man may not have the ability of a 9,000-year-old Wei Gonggong, but his ambition is no smaller than anyone else's. (If you want to know what happens next, please log in, more chapters are available, support the author, support the official version!)
