The next day, Lu Xiaoya met Huang Ziming as promised.
Huang Ziming took him and a few new friends to a mahjong parlor.
The mahjong parlor was just a front; underneath it was actually an underground casino.
Huang Ziming was pulled into playing Pai Gow by some friends.
He won a lot in the first few rounds, but then he started losing. After a few rounds, he lost almost all the money he had won, and even lost his initial capital.
"Damn it! What bad luck, I lost again!" Huang Ziming slammed the dominoes on the table, becoming somewhat agitated.
Lu Xiaoya, who was standing next to him, quickly comforted him, "Ziming, you're having a bad day. How about we stop playing?"
"Get away from me!"
Huang Ziming was in a bad mood and wanted to win the money back, so he impatiently pushed Lu Xiaoya aside.
I played one game and lost again.
Now he was completely broke. In fact, he was even tens of thousands of yuan in debt.
My card was suspended because of a conflict with my family.
He can't come up with a single penny right now, and he's so anxious he's scratching his head in frustration.
"Xiaoya, didn't you say your sister is the boss? Why don't you help me borrow some money from your sister? Just 100,000 will do!" Huang Ziming started to have designs on Lu Xiaoya.
Lu Xiaoya bit her lip.
One hundred thousand yuan!
How should she tell her sister?
Helping her boyfriend pay off his gambling debts?
How could my sister possibly give it to her!
Huang Ziming's face immediately darkened. "What use is a girlfriend like you! Get out! We're finished!"
"Ziming, no!" Lu Xiaoya immediately grabbed his arm, biting her lip as she said, "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I don't know how to tell my sister!"
Huang Ziming thought for a moment, "You could say that your classmate urgently needs surgery and needs the money! Wouldn't that solve the problem?"
Lu Xiaoya was taken aback; this was indeed an idea.
However, that was her own sister, and Lu Xiaoya couldn't bear to deceive her.
"What? Is it so hard for you to do this little thing as my girlfriend?" Huang Ziming's face immediately darkened. "If you don't want to help me, just say so. I can find someone else. I know plenty of rich girls! They can all help me!"
"Okay, okay, I'll borrow it!"
Left with no other option, Lu Xiaoya had to call Lu Xueqing.
He lied and claimed that a classmate needed money urgently for surgery.
"Xiaoya, don't worry, it's just 100,000 yuan, I'll transfer it to you right now!"
Upon hearing that a life was at stake, Lu Xueqing immediately transferred the money without hesitation.
She didn't suspect Lu Xiaoya because Lu Xiaoya had never lied to her since childhood.
After receiving the money, Huang Ziming kissed Lu Xiaoya on the cheek. "Haha, Xiaoya, you're my lucky star! Just you wait, I'll win it back later, and I'll take you out for a big meal!"
"What? You still want to gamble?" Lu Xiaoya immediately grabbed his arm. "Ziming, I beg you, please stop playing. Nine out of ten gamblers lose. If you keep going like this, you'll lose even more!"
"Hey, young lady, Young Master Huang is on a really good run today. He was winning the whole time until he started losing. He'll definitely win again if he plays again!"
"That's right!"
"Who does Young Master Huang think he is? He's not short of money!"
At this point, the people around started to jeer.
Actually, they were all people working for the casino, and this gambling game was originally set up for Huang Ziming.
Huang Ziming, flattered by the praise, became even more elated. "Listen to that, everyone's saying it. Don't worry, I'll definitely win!"
Lu Xiaoya couldn't persuade Huang Ziming otherwise, so she could only watch helplessly as he continued to gamble.
As a result, he lost tens of thousands of yuan again and ended up owing hundreds of thousands!
At this moment, Huang Ziming finally realized something was wrong and quickly pushed the dominoes away, saying, "I'm not playing anymore! This is such bad luck!"
Huang Ziming was about to leave with Lu Xiaoya when several burly men suddenly surrounded them.
A burly man with a scar on his upper lip walked slowly towards them. He was the owner of the casino and the leader of these men, nicknamed Scarface. He was the local gang leader.
Scarface looked at Huang Ziming with a sneer, "Young Master Huang, you think you can just walk away without paying back your money? That's not very fair, is it?"
Actually, he had been keeping an eye on this blond guy for the past two days. The kid was a big spender and played high-stakes games. He had someone investigate and found out that the kid wasn't a local. So today, he deliberately set a trap for him.
Huang Ziming remained calm and said to Scarface indifferently, "It's just 500,000? No big deal. I didn't bring enough money this time, but I'll pay you back next time I come!"
"That won't do!" Scarface quickly stopped Huang Ziming. "Every profession has its rules. If you don't come up with the money today, you won't be leaving this house!"
Scarface then looked at Lu Xiaoya again, "I see your girlfriend's family is quite wealthy. Why don't you have her make another call?"
Huang Ziming frowned and looked at Lu Xiaoya.
Lu Xiaoya quickly waved her hands, "I, I have no money! My sister can't give me any more money!"
"Yeah?"
brush!
Scarface pulled out a gleaming dagger.
Lu Xiaoya screamed in fright.
However, Scarface pressed the dagger against Huang Ziming's neck and sneered, "Little girl, if you can't come up with the money, your boyfriend might lose his life here today!"
"What are you doing?" Huang Ziming's legs trembled with fear. "Do you even know who I am? If you dare touch me, none of you will live!"
"Heh, you dare to scare me?"
As he spoke, Scarface stabbed him in the arm.
ah--
Huang Ziming immediately let out a scream.
"No!" Lu Xiaoya cried out in fear, her voice trembling, "You, you guys don't touch him! I, I'll call my sister right now!"
