In her past life, she owned five properties in Capital City and drove a G-wagon. When she opened her eyes, she had become a peasant girl in the 1980s.
Her father, aiming for a brighter future...
Zhou Chufei walked into the casino with 20,000 yuan in his pocket. The casino's thugs glanced at him and asked their henchmen:
"Who is this? Does he come here often?"
"He's been here a few times. He's young, probably not even an adult yet. But he has some money on him, and he always brings money with him. He's pretty well-behaved!"
"Alright, keep a close eye on them. Things haven't been peaceful lately. The big boss in Longcheng instructed us not to do business with minors if possible, to prevent these people from being reckless and causing trouble."
The henchman agreed, "Don't worry, I'll keep a close eye on him. If he wants to gamble, let him gamble. If he wants to cause trouble, I won't give in."
Dafei, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, waved his hand. Zhou Chufei noticed his gaze, sat down at the gambling table, observed the game rules for a while, and then took out two thousand yuan and placed it on the side that indicated "small".
Zhou Chufei had watched a few Hong Kong movies and knew that gambling was rampant in Kowloon. Sun Yee City was the largest gang in Hong Kong, and the place was a melting pot of all sorts of people. But as long as he didn't cause trouble, Sun Yee City wouldn't take bribes or rip off its customers.
As soon as Zhou Chufei put down the money, the dice rolled a "big"!
Two thousand yuan disappeared in the blink of an eye. Zhou Chufei's heart was pounding. Although he was reckless, he knew what two thousand yuan meant. Losing so much money in just a few seconds made Zhou Chufei pale with fright, and his lips trembled.
The croupier couldn't help but laugh at his naive and unsophisticated appearance.
"So? Are you coming or not? If not, get off. There are plenty of people who want to replace you."
Zhou Chufei snapped out of his daze, "Come on... I'll do it!"
He shakily pulled out three thousand yuan. This time he was smarter and only bet five hundred yuan. The dealer saw his pathetic appearance and gave him a meaningful smile.
So young!
They thought that being more cautious at the gambling table would lead to a different outcome.
But once people get involved in gambling, the outcome is always the same: they lose everything and their families are torn apart.
Some jumped off buildings, others committed crimes.
Whether you go to the bank or the people around you, you can't borrow a single penny more. Only when you've lost all your wealth will you feel at ease. Once a person reaches this point, they are living worse than a dog, and in the end, all they can do is die.
Dafei gave the dealer a wink, and the dealer nodded. When Zhou Chufei bet 1,000 dollars on "big", the dealer dealt "big".
Zhou Chufei was ecstatic! Even though he knew he had lost so much money, he felt that he hadn't lost at all. He had won money, more than three thousand in one go!
In the next round, he bet two thousand yuan on "small" and, to his surprise, he was quite lucky and won a full six thousand yuan!
Gambling can make money really quickly. Zhou Chufei suspected that he had a talent for gambling, otherwise why would he have earned so much on his first visit?
On this day, Zhou Chufei earned a full 12,000!
The stolen money wasn't spent; in fact, he made some money, which greatly increased Zhou Chufei's interest in gambling!
Holding the money, Zhou Chufei was overjoyed. If Zhou Chuyu knew that he could easily earn 12,000 yuan by gambling in Hong Kong, she would be very surprised!
He made the right choice to follow Zhou Jian'an; he could have made so much money by following Shu Hui.
Don't even think about it!
As soon as Zhou Chufei got home, he was slapped. When he looked up, he saw Zhou Jian'an's angry face. Zhou Jian'an was furious and kicked him in the chest, knocking Zhou Chufei to the ground.
"You little brat! You dare steal my money! I worked so hard to bring you to Hong Kong, feeding and caring for you, and you dare to do this!"
Zhou Jian'an had four children, but he never raised any of them; all four children were born to Shu Hui.
Previously, Shu Hui said that Jiang Meifeng was protecting Zhou Chufei, but Zhou Jian'an didn't take it to heart. He thought that Zhou Chufei was the only son in the family, and it was inevitable that the old man would protect his eldest grandson. As long as he didn't go too far, it wasn't his place as the father to interfere.
After arriving in Gangcheng, he took Zhou Chufei with him. Zhou Chufei was old and could take care of his own eating, drinking and toileting, so Zhou Jian'an was happy to have an easy life.
But he always felt a distance between himself and the child.
On the night of the smuggling, Zhou Chufei pushed Zhou Fangchun into the water in order to get to Hong Kong. Although it was out of necessity, Zhou Jian'an still felt that the child was too scary.
That's his own aunt, how could he just push her away like that? Didn't he hesitate before he did it? If he can do this to his own aunt and abandon his own grandmother, does that mean he can turn on his own father in the future?
Zhou Jian'an felt uneasy. He had been on guard against Zhou Chufei, but he never expected that Zhou Chufei would dare to tamper with his accounts. If it weren't for his special way of keeping accounts and Zhou Chufei forgetting to change the general ledger, he wouldn't have discovered it for a while!
“Tell me the truth, what did you do with the money you stole? Twenty thousand yuan! Is that a small amount? My monthly salary in the mainland is only forty or fifty yuan. It would take me more than thirty years to earn twenty thousand yuan! You're only a few years old, and you've already stolen so much money from home. What will you be like when you grow up!”
Zhou Chufei clutched his chest, feeling a dull ache in his chest cavity. Zhou Jian'an really didn't know his own strength when he kicked him. If he caused any problems, the hospital expenses would be considerable.
Zhou Chufei frowned and said, "I just ran out of money and wanted some for living expenses. I haven't touched a single penny of this money, I'm returning it all to you..."
Zhou Chufei pulled a wad of cash from his pocket and threw it on the ground.
Zhou Jian'an was skeptical, but he picked up the folded money and counted it. After counting, he felt something was off. He guessed that Zhou Chufei must have gone to gamble.
Hong Kong has many good things, but it's also full of temptations. It's not surprising that an uneducated kid like Zhou Chufei could easily go astray and be lured into gambling.
"You really didn't gamble?"
