"Brother Lin, let's play one more round. We'll win it back in the next one!"

A bald man next to him saw that he had stopped moving and said again.

When the people around heard this, they all started to make a fuss.

"Brother Lin was lucky today. He won a grand slam on the first hand. He will definitely win back his money with a profit on the next hand."

Listening to the crowd's booing, Lin Ping's face stiffened.

He wanted to try again.

"I'm out of money, so I'll just take this little bit with me today. Let's wait until tomorrow and play again tomorrow."

He said it with a stiff face, trying to save face.

Everyone's eyes fell on his face, and Lin Ping felt his face burning. He couldn't help but resent Lin Wanru on the mountain. If she hadn't been so stingy and only gave him such a small amount of money, how could he have embarrassed himself in front of this group of people!

Seeing him like this, the bald man rolled his eyes twice and said with a smile, "We've only played a few rounds, it's not enough fun, don't you think?"

As soon as he spoke, someone immediately echoed him.

"Yeah, we've only played two or three rounds, and the place is just getting hot!"

The bald man then said, "Brother Lin, how could such a powerful person go out with only this little? Brother Lin, stop joking with us. Come on, continue!"

The bald man held the dice in his hand and pretended to throw it.

Lin Ping has lost nearly a thousand yuan from them in the past few days. He is a young man with a little money, but he only made fifty yuan today. Naturally, the bald man is unwilling to accept this.

"I really have no money." Lin Ping spread his hands awkwardly. Seeing that everyone looked unconvinced, he had no choice but to empty his pockets to prove his innocence.

"I really don't have a cent left."

When everyone saw his empty pockets, they felt extremely disappointed and they silently turned their eyes to the bald man.

The bald man narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother Lin, why don't you go get some more money to play with? We'll wait for you here."

"I've lost all my money. Where can I get more money? I have no money to spend. I'm not going to play anymore."

Looking at the other party's relentless appearance, Lin Ping gradually came to his senses. His face changed, he waved his hand, and stood up.

However, before he could leave, the bald man spoke again.

"Brother Lin, you're being too modest. This little money is nothing to you. Don't you have a brother-in-law who's the factory director? How could you be short of money?"

The people next to the bald man also started to make a fuss.

"Yeah, Brother Lin, go ask your brother-in-law for some money to play!"

Lin Ping's face was dark, and his facial features were tightly wrinkled.

"I can't get it."

He gritted his teeth.

"He has a daughter who is very nosy. How can I get money from her?"

Having said that, he hated Song Zhi even more.

If it weren't for her, how could I have no money to spend?

Lin Ping's eyes were filled with hostility, and his originally ordinary facial features now looked extremely ugly because of the ferocious look.

When the bald man heard this, his face turned a little ugly.

It was only fifty yuan, not even enough for those brothers to buy a pack of cigarettes.

The bald man looked at the brand new Zhongshan suit on Lin Ping and sneered in his heart. He immediately realized that it was just a show. The real rich person was the factory director brother-in-law he mentioned.

The bald man suddenly became interested and asked with pretended curiosity.

"There is also a daughter. How old is she? What does she look like? Bring her over to play when you have time."

As he said this, he winked at the others.

Everyone understood and began to ask questions.

"Such an ignorant woman, do you want the brothers to help and teach her a lesson?"

"Women are all cheapskates. Give them a good beating and they'll behave themselves."

"When the time comes, brothers, take action and make sure she never dares to raise her voice to Brother Lin again!"

Lin Ping's ears were moved by their words.

He was originally worried about not being able to teach Song Zhi a lesson, and now he finally felt sleepy, and someone handed him a pillow.

Then he can use these people to scare her, and then he can come to the rescue as a hero, and everything will be fine!

Lin Ping pinched his chin and thought happily in his heart.

When he thought of Song Zhi's pretty face, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He had never touched a woman with such delicate skin and tender flesh. When he got her, he would definitely have fun with her!

Thinking of this, Lin Ping agreed immediately.

"I'll call her out some other day, and the brothers will help scare her a few times. Then I'll treat everyone to a meal."

His thoughts were practically written on his face, and the bald man could see it, but he didn't point it out and just responded happily.

"Okay, Brother Lin's business is everyone's business. We will definitely teach that woman a lesson and make her listen to Brother Lin."

Lin Ping was imagining the day when he would get Song Zhi after the plan was accomplished. He was so happy that he naturally didn't notice the abnormality of the people around him.

＊

In the evening, at Tang's house.

The Tang family sat together and had a rare reunion dinner.

Tang Junhe has been in the army all year round, far away from the capital.

Although he has an older brother and sister, his sister Tang Xue got married a long time ago and rarely visits her parents' home. His brother Tang Yiye also works in a government agency and is very busy. Like Tang Junhe, he rarely goes home.

This also led to the family being apart more often than together.

After learning that Tang Junhe had returned from annual leave, Tang Xue rushed back from her husband's house with her daughter.

She fed her daughter a piece of fish, then looked up at Tang Junhe who was leisurely eating across from her. She couldn't help but say, "Junhe, you're not a child anymore. You come back alone every year. When will you bring someone back with you?"

Before Tang Junhe could say anything, she continued, "Brother, I called back today to ask about you. You're all alone here, so lonely, don't you feel lonely?"

Tang Xue gave him a slightly accusing look, her tone full of complaints.

Tang Junhe took a mouthful of rice silently without saying anything.

He could hear Tang Xue's words almost every time he came back.

This has become her rhetoric.

And there is only one final goal.

Urge marriage.

Tang Xue looked at his leisurely manner and became anxious.

He is the youngest in the family, but he will be 30 after the Chinese New Year. Children of his age can already help with cooking.

But her brother is not smart at all. He is already old but doesn't even have a partner.

Tang's father and mother were also very anxious about this matter. Now when they heard Tang Xue mention this, they silently put down their chopsticks and turned their eyes to Tang Junhe.

"Jun He, it's time to find a partner." Tang's mother sighed.

She looked at her son. He was obviously handsome and his family background was not bad. But after so many years, how come he couldn't even find a partner?
