Liang Yueling stood at her doorstep, smiling as she looked at Gao Ping, seemingly forgetting the beatings he had inflicted on her.
"Honey, can you give me that smartwatch? I'll charge it at my mom's for a bit, so I might be back in about ten minutes. Don't miss me too much, okay?"
Looking at Liang Yueling's happy face, Gao Ping suddenly felt a surge of anger, but remembering that Liang Yueling would be going back to her parents' home later, he forcibly suppressed his anger, then picked up Xiao Yanbao's phone watch from the coffee table and handed it to Liang Yueling, who was full of anticipation.
“Honey, when I’m not home, you can have this little girl do a fortune telling for you, like about your future or destiny. I had her do one for me, and that’s how we were able to find this kind of happiness again.”
After saying this, Liang Yueling looked at Gao Ping very seriously and spoke sincerely.
"I've made mistakes over the years, honey. I promise to support you unconditionally from now on. We love each other so much, how can we argue about money? I love you, honey."
Xiao Yanbao and Li Wanning both looked at Liang Yueling who had spoken, and then exchanged a glance. It turned out that Liang Yueling was not simply crazy. It seemed that she had created a world for herself. Perhaps in that world, Gao Ping had already corrected his ways, which was why she had come out of her previous state of madness.
Liang Yueling was about to speak when Gao Ping pushed her out the door.
"Go quickly!"
Liang Yueling chuckled and rolled her eyes at Gao Ping, ignoring the impatience on his face. She even muttered something in a sweet voice, but Gao Ping had already closed the door.
"Uncle, are you sure you want Auntie to go out by herself? She seems a bit..."
Xiao Yanbao looked worried about Liang Yueling, but Gao Ping laughed and sat back down on the sofa. He pulled out a King of Kings cigarette from somewhere and tossed it to Xiao Yanbao.
"Eat something first to fill your stomach. You're the Li family's precious darling, don't let yourself get hungry."
Gao Ping felt increasingly cheerful at the thought of getting a large sum of money from the Li family soon. Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, but Gao Ping suddenly felt his palms were very hot. He raised his hands to his eyes and saw that his palms were slightly red and a little swollen.
"This is a recipe for wealth!"
Gao Ping wanted to make some more money while things were going well, so he immediately picked up his phone and deposited 500,000 yuan into the platform. He muttered to himself as he placed his bets on the big option, but this time the result was small.
"Again! Again!"
Gao Ping deposited another million yuan and was about to place a bet when an unfamiliar number popped up on his phone screen. Without thinking, Gao Ping hung up immediately.
"This time it's another big one, I don't believe it."
In Gao Ping's mind at this state, 500,000 and 1 million were not money at all, but just a string of useless numbers. He entered another million, rubbed his hands, and was about to continue topping up when he discovered that his bank card had been locked.
At the same time, the phone rang again after it had just been hung up. Gao Ping frowned and was about to answer when he saw that Xiao Yanbao was still beside him. He immediately grabbed Xiao Yanbao by the back of her clothes and carried her to the room where he had previously locked her up, warning her angrily.
"Behave yourself!"
Gao Ping fully demonstrated what it means to be capricious; he had a smiling face when he won money, but when he lost money, he saw everyone as a jinx. After locking Xiao Yanbao in the room, Gao Ping angrily answered the phone.
"Hey, who are you, calling me all the time?"
The police officer on the other end of the phone, hearing Gao Ping's foul language, was about to explode, but then remembered something, forcibly suppressed his anger, and pretended not to hear, saying:
"Is this Mr. Gao Ping? This is the Zhongbei Street Police Station. We have received a notification from the system asking you to come to the police station tomorrow morning."
"Police station?"
Gao Ping countered with a question, then continued impatiently:
"I haven't broken the law, what would I do there?"
"The system has detected illegal funds being transferred into your account. Please be sure to go to the Zhongbei Street Police Station tomorrow morning to explain the situation and make a statement. After that, the lock on your account will be lifted."
"Okay, I understand."
Although Gao Ping was impatient, he was still somewhat afraid. His bank card was also locked, so he had no choice but to go to the police station as soon as possible to unlock it.
"Damn, what bad luck."
Gao Ping grumbled as he entered Guan Xiaoyanbao's room. He saw Xiaoyanbao sitting on the spring bed in a daze and kicked the bed leg.
"Quickly calculate my fortune for the future, what will my overall luck be like?"
Upon hearing Gao Ping's words, Xiao Yanbao's eyes suddenly lit up. He braced himself against the edge of the bed with one hand, and his two little legs wobbled as he landed on the ground.
"Uncle, are you really going to calculate it?"
Xiao Yanbao came up to Gao Ping, stretched out his palm, and looked up at Gao Ping.
"Find me six coins, and I'll give you a thorough fortune telling."
Gao Ping looked down at Xiao Yanbao with a puzzled expression, and said impatiently:
"Didn't you just tell that unlucky guy's fortune? Why do I have to go find six coins now? You're not trying to scam me, are you?"
Xiao Yanbao looked down at the wooden sticks scattered on the ground, then pointed at them and said to Gao Ping:
"If you want to use it, just take it."
Gao Ping looked down in the direction Xiao Yanbao was pointing and saw that the small wooden sticks made from broken disposable chopsticks were covered in Liang Yueling's saliva and some other unidentified liquid. Seeing this, Gao Ping disgustedly waved his hand in front of his nose and said:
"Wait a moment, I'll go get it."
When they reached the living room, Gao Ping turned back to Xiao Yanbao and said:
"Come out too, that room is disgusting."
While Xiao Yanbao was waiting in the living room for Gao Ping to find the coins, Liang Yueling had already taken a taxi to her parents' house.
Liang Yueling opened the security door with her key and saw her father sitting in the living room watching TV, but she didn't see her mother. Feeling a little strange, she immediately asked.
"Dad, where's Mom?"
"Oh? Yueyue's back? Have you eaten?"
When Liang Yueling's father saw his eldest daughter return, he immediately got up to greet her.
"I've already eaten. Where's my mom?"
When Liang Yueling's father saw that Liang Yueling had come back alone, he squatted down and took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet. He naturally took off Liang Yueling's shoes and then helped her put on the slippers.
"Your mother went to the supermarket. Is there something you need from your mother?"
Liang Yueling hummed in agreement, walked straight to the elderly couple's bedroom, picked up the charger from the bedside table, and started charging Xiao Yanbao's smartwatch.
"Is this Kexin's watch? Isn't it a bit too childish? How about your mom and I go buy Kexin a cell phone tomorrow?"
When Liang Yueling heard her father speaking behind her, her body suddenly trembled, and she quickly hid the phone watch in her arms.
