Chapter 259 Gambler
Lu Jiu and Chen Jufeng first settled down in Fengjin City. Hua Xiaolan and the others still felt that provoking them might not work, and they had to consider what to do next.
Shen Jufeng had nothing to say about this.
When he arrived at the temporary room, he suddenly asked Lu Jiu without any context, "You really don't remember the name Cheng Yuan?"
Lu Jiu scratched his head and said, "No, maybe there is, but I've met so many people, I really can't remember them if we don't have any intersections."
Shen Jufeng sat on the sofa, clasped his hands together, and twirled his thumbs. "Remember that fat guy who worked as a debt collector at the loan company?"
Lu Jiu still remembered the fat guy. The contrast was huge. "I remember. He looked fierce, but turned out to be very cowardly."
Shen Jufeng: "When he told us why he knew there would be no wound, he mentioned the name Cheng Yuan."
Lu Jiu carefully recalled the scene at that time, and gradually what happened at that time began to resurface in his mind.
"It's all because of that kid Cheng Yuan..."
As if struck by electricity, Lu Jiu remembered what the fat man said at that time. He tried to chop a poor gambling student who owed money, but found that there would be no wounds.
"It can't be such a coincidence..."
The fat man just mentioned it casually at that time, and she didn't really remember the name carefully. She only remembered that the man the fat man mentioned was a gambler.
Shen Jufeng paused his thumb and said, "That's why I said give it a try. A gambler shouldn't stop gambling just because the world has changed."
Lu Jiu lowered his eyes and thought, "Then I have to verify his identity first. If it is really him, I will have to step forward..."
·
The same provincial channel was quiet that day, and suddenly a message appeared.
[Hua Xiaolan] (Channel from the same province): Cheng Yuan, I really didn't know that you were such a gambler and even borrowed money from loan sharks. The boss of the company you owe money to just happened to come to our city recently.
As soon as this news came out, everyone's gossip hearts were ignited.
Cheng Yuan naturally also saw this message. His face turned pale and red at this moment. This was the past event he least wanted to recall.
The other people in the City Lord's Mansion didn't dare to breathe.
Cheng Yuan clenched his fists, veins popping out on the back of his hands. "Get out!"
At this moment, the inferiority complex and resentment towards everything that he had felt at that time resurfaced in his mind.
Several people, including Deng Yiran, quickly left the City Lord's Mansion, fearing that Cheng Yuan would suddenly go crazy and kill them.
[Ding Jiayi] (Channel from the same province): Hahahaha, is this true? Oh my god, it turns out he is just a poor loser who owes money to loan sharks. He acts like a local tyrant every day. I'm dying of laughter!
[Hua Xiaolan] (Channel from the same province): Isn't it? I heard that Cheng Yuan was so happy at that time, thinking that the world had changed and he didn't have to pay back the money. But he still ran all the way here from Yangshan City. It seems that he had something to hide and was afraid of meeting acquaintances there.
[Ding Jiayi] (Channel from the same province): This is too funny, sister, who told you this?
[Hua Xiaolan] (Channel from the same province): It was Qingyi. He told me that he had stayed with you at that time, but he didn’t remember Cheng Yuan at that time. Later he remembered that it seemed to be him. Hey, Cheng Yuan, don’t play dead, come out and confront him.
Cheng Yuan's eyes were red and his fists were shaking. He just wanted a chance to start over, and then sweep from Anshao Province to Long Province, letting everyone know that he, Cheng Yuan, was the chosen son of God.
Even if you have to endure so many hardships at the beginning, you can still rise after the world changes.
[Cheng Yuan] (same provincial channel): Where are the people?
These three words were an admission that he was the gambler who owed money as the boss said.
[Hua Xiaolan] (Channel from the same province): This boss really wants to meet you. He is in my Fengjin City. Do you have the courage to come over?
The other people in the channel didn't dare to speak out and all waited and watched. They really didn't know about Cheng Yuan's past, but the channel in the same city was extremely lively.
Cheng Yuan didn't reply to her. He had to meet the person. Not only did he have to meet the person, but he also had to kill that person and completely erase the past!
·
Hua Xiaolan also breathed a sigh of relief. "I never thought that Cheng Yuan was not a good person before. I originally thought he was a psychopath because of school bullying, but it turns out he is a gambler."
Shen Jufeng lowered his eyes, thinking about something. Since he had confirmed that it was the other person, it could only mean that it was fate. Perhaps they were destined to clean up this scum.
Lu Jiu: "I didn't remember him at first. I didn't expect that we would meet someone who was mentioned by chance by others."
As soon as Hua Xiaolan got up today, Lu Jiu contacted her and said that they wanted to cooperate to lure Cheng Yuan here. He only said that Cheng Yuan used to be a gambler and owed usurious loan sharks, and ran away from Yangshan City.
So she sent that message, still unsure in her heart.
Hua Xiaolan: "Maybe this is fate. Hey, Cheng Yuan contacted me and asked if the boss I mentioned is still here."
Shen Ju didn't even raise his head, "Ignore him, wait until he comes over."
The deputy city lord took a long time to come back to his senses. "No wonder he always gives me a weird feeling. His rage is probably just a cover-up for his inferiority complex."
It was precisely because of this inferiority complex that he left Yangshan City. Now that his scars have been exposed, he must be furious.
Cheng Yuan smashed and looted things in the City Lord's Mansion for a long time before he recovered and calmed down.
He walked out of the City Lord's Mansion and looked at his subordinates waiting outside. "Let's go to Fengjin City."
Deng Yiran and Xiong Yi glanced at each other secretly. Cheng Yuan now looked even more terrifying.
There are not many people in this city-state anymore. Those who remain are all bad people like Cheng Yuan. The streets are deserted, unlike other city-states that are full of people.
Cheng Yuan put on the equipment he had robbed, including the silver-grade clothing, wings, and the weapon in his hand. Compared with the current grade of wild monsters, it was a powerful weapon.
But he didn't know that the more he did this, the more it showed that he lacked confidence.
Several people headed all the way to Fengjin City, and Fengjin City was now ready to fight.
·
That afternoon, Cheng Yuan and others had already arrived at the gate of Fengjin City.
Seeing the other party's situation, Hua Xiaolan almost added a special effect of black mist all over his body to make him turn evil.
Cheng Yuan urged the Thunder Cloud to rise to the same level as Shen Jufeng and the others.
“Who is the boss?”
Lu Jiu took a step forward and said, "That's me. Now that City Lord Cheng has become rich, I wonder if he can repay the money he owed me."
Cheng Yuan laughed instead of getting angry, "Then it depends on whether you have the luck to get it."
Shen Jufeng then raised his eyes to look at Cheng Yuan. The man was still a little hunched over, as if he had often shrank back in front of other people before.
Lu Jiu looked at him from head to toe. The equipment was obviously very nice, but when worn on him it seemed like a waste of natural resources. He looked like a weird creature.
"You're not suitable to wear these. They only make you look uglier and waste their purpose."
Cheng Yuan was enraged and directly urged the Magic Cube to disperse and crash into the protective shield together.
But this is just an act of incompetence.
Through the protective shield, Lu Jiu stared at Cheng Yuan's eyes without any scruples. His eyes were cloudy and filled with hatred.
"Of course I have the right to get this money back. I asked my company's people to go to your place to collect the money, and you attacked them with a knife. What I said is right, isn't it?"
