Cao Dongsheng picked up the other two cards, took a look at them, and threw them into the deck angrily.
"Time flies when I'm playing cards. It's almost four o'clock. I should leave soon. I have something to do at the pharmacy."
"Lao Cao, you have a really bad habit. Whether you win money or lose money, you always run away early?" Hua Qiuxia said angrily.
"I'm leaving, and you still have five people. You can still play. Two people can play Poker. Sometimes I get bored and play Poker by myself."
Cao Dongsheng looked at Lin Chan and said, "Don't you plan to go to the restaurant to take a look in the evening?"
"No."
Lin Chan looked at the money in front of her and said, "My cousin is guarding it, so I don't need to worry about it."
"Don't worry, aren't you afraid of problems with the accounts? Even brothers settle accounts clearly, not to mention that he's just your cousin."
"My cousin is an honest man and he doesn't slander me."
Judging from Lin Chan's expression, she didn't care much even if the other party did something with the money.
The game continues.
After that, my luck was neither good nor bad, and I cheated a bit.
Let yourself win money, and let Lin Chan win appropriate money.
Play until six in the evening.
I won more than two thousand, Lin Chan won more than a thousand, and the barber Li Liang won a few hundred.
Meng Zhiwei lost nearly three thousand, Hua Qiuxia lost more than one thousand, and Cao Dongsheng probably broke even.
For some people, playing cards to protect their capital is even more painful than losing money.
When the winner is unclear, you will look forward to the next hand more and more.
"Go on, what are you thinking about?"
Cao Dongsheng looked up at me and reminded me to shuffle and deal the cards quickly.
"I don't want to play anymore. I'm hungry. Let's go eat."
"You kid, you won the most money, so you can just leave when you want to?"
Hua Qiuxia, who was sitting down, shouted angrily and raised her hand to slap my arm.
I felt very awkward, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
Meng Zhiwei, who lost the most money, said angrily, "Lin Chan, your neighbor's brother doesn't play cards properly."
"We've been playing for more than three hours, it's time to go home. Besides, Dong Hang doesn't play often, he's not a gambler like us. He plays cards just for fun and doesn't want to tire himself out. Dong Hang, you should go," Lin Chan said.
"Then I'll be leaving first."
After collecting the money, I left Lin Chan's house.
I closed the door and heard someone inside cursing me.
Go back to your own house across the street.
I took a bottle of cold drink from the refrigerator, sat on the sofa, and drank it.
Winning such a small amount of money is not enough to make me excited.
Since I mastered my cheating skills, I have won more than 100,000 yuan.
Including the more than 300,000 yuan in savings my father left me, there are currently more than 500,000 yuan in my passbooks and cards.
In Beijing, I am definitely not a rich person, I can just say that I live a decent life.
I have had a driver's license for a long time, but I have never bought a car.
When going out, I either take the bus or a taxi, or ride a mountain bike.
Lin Chan, who lives next door, told me that she has a Buick sedan, which she sometimes uses herself and sometimes parks at the Bashu Restaurant for public use.
I took my half-finished cold drink and walked out the door.
I plan to find a restaurant and have some barbecue for dinner.
Chaoyang District is becoming more and more prosperous, with developed shopping and fashion.
As for the area near my home, it is mostly residential and very lively.
It wasn't dark yet, but the street lights were already on.
This reminded me of my father who passed away not long ago, and also of my mother whom I met by chance at the World Trade Center more than two months ago.
The girl who was with my mother that weekend night was my half-sister, Bai Yurou.
She was already fifteen years old, but I had only seen her back and profile, and had never seen her face from the front.
I think she must be very happy.
Found a barbecue restaurant.
I sat by the wall and looked at the scenery outside through the glass window.
I don’t know when it started, but I started to like the evening.
I look forward to the night lights, and even more to the dawn.
Looking forward to the knock on the door on an unexpected night.
"What would you like to eat?"
A waitress smiled brightly.
"Let me take a look."
I took the order and ordered meat skewers, kidneys, and leeks...
The girl seemed to want to play a joke on me, but she held it back.
While eating barbecue and drinking draft beer, I dialed a phone number that could harass me 24 hours a day.
Good buddy Chen Haonan.
"Dong Hang, you're finally making some noise. What have you been up to lately?"
"In your eyes, I don't have a proper job and I just want to have fun? Let me tell you, I recently got a big project and I'm in urgent need of investment."
"What kind of project can you take on? If you're out of money, just tell me and I'll easily transfer three or two thousand yuan to you."
"If I don't have even two or three thousand, it's nothing. I'm planning to tile the Badaling Great Wall. Can you invest some money?"
"Hey, have you asked the cultural relics protection department? You covered this perfectly good old building with tiles and turned it into a bathhouse on the mountain.
My buddy has been feeling down lately, having just broken up with his girlfriend. Shan Jin's girlfriend went back to her hometown to start a business, and her family used their connections to get her a job in the department.
The more Chen Haonan spoke, the more disappointed he became.
His girlfriend is very beautiful and they have been dating for several years. He must be reluctant to break up with her.
"It's her loss if she breaks up with me. How much future can she have if she returns to this small county town? If she marries me and has a child, they'll have Beijing hukou. Once my grandparents' old house in the village is demolished, she'll easily make tens of millions!"
"Haozi, your conditions are actually quite good, but having a Beijing hukou is nothing to brag about. She must have carefully considered the decision to return to her hometown. Everyone has their own aspirations, and they can take it or leave it. Bless her."
"Your sister, you're not the one who's heartbroken! Tomorrow is the weekend and I'm off. Come to Hai Dian and drink with me!"
"No, if you want to drink with me, come to Chaoyang."
I hung up the phone.
My good friends don’t believe I dare to tile the Badaling Great Wall.
This is because my cheating skills are not good enough.
Cheating is equivalent to deception, and cheating is not limited to the card table.
