"How could that be?" Wang Qiang was stunned. Han Wenjing had told him herself that she had taken a liking to the butcher. Otherwise, he wouldn't have given up and gone out to work for two years. When he came back, the Han family had already moved away.
Su Chenhao put his hand on his shoulder: "I can tell you for sure that the girl doesn't like me. As for who she likes, I don't know."
This matter can be put on hold; we can pretend it never happened.
Wang Qiang punched him in the chest: "You're afraid that girl will get jealous, aren't you? I can tell you're falling for her."
From the moment you appeared at the market, your eyes were only for that little girl, your tender gaze obvious even to a blind man; you loved her.
Su Chenhao smiled: "Yes, I love her very much, she is my life."
Wang Qiang shook his head: "I didn't expect you to fall for her too. I wonder what's so charming about this girl."
Just as Su Chenhao was about to continue talking to him, he saw Zhao Yue being chased out of a house across the street. She went over to argue with the person who had chased her, but was pushed to the ground.
"Your wife is being bullied."
"Ah!" Wang Qiang exclaimed in surprise. Following his gaze, he saw Zhao Yue being pushed to the ground. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was one of the people who often gathered at his home to gamble.
They didn't usually interact, but he had heard about their affairs to some extent. Without thinking about anything else, he rushed over and helped the person up.
What's going on?
Zhao Yue wept bitterly and hugged Wang Qiang tightly with both hands:
"They cheated! I was clearly going to win this hand, but they swapped my cards."
"I've lost all my money, what am I going to do? They're so cruel, all that money is mine! If I win this one round, I can pay off all my debts." She was emotionally distraught, blurting out everything in a rush. Only afterward did she realize the fear, covering her mouth with her hand, unsure what to say next.
"Explain yourself to me what accounts you're talking about!" Wang Qiang pushed her away. "Have you been gambling all day with nothing better to do than stay home?"
"I..." Zhao Yue quickly stepped forward and hugged him again: "Let me explain. I thought this was a quick way to make money, so I thought I could multiply the money at home several times. I never thought I would be scammed by them."
I now realize that every time I won at gambling, it was under their control. Just now, I clearly drew the best hand, but the card disappeared, and all I did was bend down and pick up a dollar.
They cheated us; they should return all the money to us.
Wang Qiang looked at Zhao Yue with exasperation. This was the partner his own mother had chosen for him, ruining his life! If he had insisted a little more back then, would things have turned out differently?
"Zhao Yue, you're not a child anymore. You're almost 30 years old. Don't you remember anything I say?"
Gambling is the most dangerous thing to do. Countless people throughout history have lost everything. And you still secretly came to gamble without telling me? Why don't you just die instead of hiding it from me?
She worked herself to the bone for two years, and the family should have saved several hundred yuan. Now, it's obvious that she gambled it all away.
Zhao Yue collapsed to the ground: "I didn't expect it to be like this. You don't earn much money each month. I want to buy nice clothes, but I need money, right?"
The child is so young and costs money, so I wanted to earn more money. But I'm not very bright, so I just wanted to win some money to improve our lives. Was I wrong?
