Lawrence Lu recalled and finally remembered the person called “Red Dragonfly”. He frowned slightly. What a trouble.
She was the daughter of the third wife of the shipping tycoon Dong Zhenyao. She was a daughter born in his old age and was spoiled to death. Because she liked to wear red dresses and had a beautiful face and was said to be quite skilled in martial arts, she was nicknamed "Red Dragonfly".
That man often went out with her second brother Dong David. She had met him twice in the past and he seemed to have taken a liking to her, but he never paid any attention to her.
There are now "Four Shipping Kings" in Hong Kong. Taking advantage of the rapid innovation of the Western shipbuilding industry in the 1960s, these four shipping kings purchased obsolete old ships, expanded their fleets, developed rapidly, and their net worth skyrocketed.
The Dong family is one of them. Dong Zhenyao has a big business, but he has been fighting openly and secretly with the famous "ship charter king" Bao Chengguang.
But later, for some unknown reason, he wanted to arrange a marriage and let his youngest daughter Dong Yuting marry the young master of the Bao family.
As a result, that time, when Abin opened the Jindi Nightclub in Central, Lu Guanjie went there as a good brother to show his support, and it was there that he met this young lady for the first time.
That night, Lawrence Lu only sat there for more than an hour, and the young lady came to pester him twice, saying that it was love at first sight, which gave Brother Bin a headache.
After all, she is just a girl with a good status and background. She is not a troublemaker. She just likes the handsome boy Jie!
There's nothing I can do. My brother is just too good-looking. When a man is too handsome, it can sometimes be a source of trouble. How can I blame girls for admiring him?
Since he couldn't beat her, Abin had to find her brother Dong David and quickly take his sister home.
Later, it was heard that Dong Yuting was making a fuss at home and calling off the engagement. When the news got out, Lawrence Lu really considered himself unlucky as he had gotten into a lot of trouble for no reason.
You know, he hasn't even said a few words to this woman. Want to pester me? Dream on.
He glanced at Lian Xiaomin, and he didn't expect that Lian Xiaomin didn't listen to what Su Meilie said seriously at all, and was "selling orders" (Northeastern dialect, meaning distracted).
It was obvious that the little girl's mind had already flown to the gambling table, and she stretched her neck to watch with great interest.
Lian Xiaomin has never gambled in her life. She only knows how to play tractor poker and can't even play landlord.
The only time I bought a lottery ticket, I won 80 million. Before I spent it (liao three times), I suddenly traveled through time...
She really has no talent for these things. She can't even understand how the playing cards in movies like "God of Gamblers" are touched. How can it be so magical?
It's either a straight flush or four aces.
I don’t understand, but I’m quite curious. Now I’m here, so I’ll go and see it today.
What the hell? I vaguely heard them talking about butterflies, no, "red dragonflies". Did they like this guy Lawrence Lu?
Oh, why didn’t my hot-tempered self scratch at all?
Not at all serious.
I don’t care whether you are a red dragonfly or a flying butterfly, they are all songs by the Little Tigers!
No matter what insect it is, I will pluck its wings off.
Seeing that Amin had already gone over there, Lawrence Lu had to hurry up and follow him. Su Meili asked someone to put the drinks and food on a table so that they could sit there and enjoy them later.
The two looked around. Lian Xiaomin couldn't understand anything else, but she found "Twenty-One" to be very easy and fun. It was just a matter of seeing whose card points added up closest to 21.
She and Lawrence Lu stopped and stood in front of the table, watching others play and having a lot of fun. It was really interesting. Although the rules were simple, they required a lot of strategy.
There are seven players at this table. The dealer deals two cards to each player, one for the visible card and one for the hidden card.
Players decide whether to continue "asking for cards" based on the cards in their hands. Each time they ask for a card, if they think their cards are good, they can double the bet...
Lian Xiaomin was concentrating on watching others play, but Lawrence Lu had already observed that Dong Yuting, who was sitting at a table inside, and her older brother David Dong, had already noticed his presence.
Sure enough, the woman in a red dress and in her early twenties locked her eyes on him, her face excited, and she stood up and walked towards him.
After coming over, Dong David greeted him first: "Handsome Jie, I heard that you are in Tsim Sha Tsui now. How come you are free to come to Causeway Bay today?"
As he got closer, his gaze turned directly from Lawrence Lu's face and suddenly stopped on the girl in purple beside him.
His eyes lit up immediately, and he thought, where did this beautiful lady come from? No, judging from her clothes, she looked like a thug, could she be the bodyguard of Handsome Jay?
A light bulb went off in his head, and he quickly recalled a rumor that had been circulating a year ago about internal strife in Xinyi'an. As a result, Lawrence Lu brought a strong man to help the leader settle the mess caused by Song Shibang.
It was said that the top fighter was a beautiful young woman. There were also rumors that she was not ordinary and had a close relationship with the handsome guy Jie...
He thought to himself, what does this mean? This handsome guy always has some romantic gossips, just like the tabloids in Hong Kong. Would anyone really believe it if he told them about it?
Even if a pretty girl has some fancy moves, it is not necessary to describe her as supernatural.
He himself didn’t take a small figure like Lawrence Lu seriously at all, and it was because his sister fell in love with this kid that his father asked him to check this person, and that’s how he found out about these rumors.
Really, his family background is not that good and there are a lot of rumors about him. He and his father look down on this handsome guy and there is no way they would allow their younger sister to marry such a man.
However, I heard that he ran a large hotel and seemed to have a wealthy family, so I couldn't figure out his details for a while.
