Yang Donghu felt relieved when he heard this. Zhao Luochuan squatted in front of him and turned his head and said, "Come up, I'll carry you on my back."
Cao'er wasted time and was pinned to the ground by Li Shangcai as soon as she stepped into the house. As his fingers continued to tighten, Cao'er felt dizzy and her vision went black, and she was about to pass out.
Li Shangcai let go of his hand and asked fiercely: "Where have you been? Are you trying to run away?"
Cao'er coughed violently several times and lay on the ground for a long time before he recovered from his near-death state. He gasped and said, "No, no, no, I saw my brother. He told me that he had made a fortune recently and was going to the south."
"Your brother?" Li Shangcai asked in confusion, "Didn't he go out and hide from his gambling debts? Why is he suddenly back? And rich?"
Cao'er, of course, had no idea where his brother had died. He got up from the ground and made up a story, "He said he couldn't stand being chased anymore, so he wanted to go back to the gambling house and try to make a big comeback. Unexpectedly, he got lucky. The gambling house had a new gamble, and the money he won not only paid off his debts, but he also had quite a bit left over, enough to keep him entertained for years."
Li Shangcai touched his chin and thought for a moment: "Really? Did he really win money?"
"Of course. By the way, young master, aren't you short of money recently? Why not give it a try? You know my brother, even a loser can turn things around. Young master, you are much more capable than him. Are you still afraid of not having the chance to make money?"
If it were in the past, Li Shangcai might not be so easily deceived, but now he is really short of money. After listening to Cao'er, he made up his mind without thinking for a while.
He lifted Cao'er's chin, looked at his handsome face, which had not lost an inch despite the abuse, and said with a lewd smile, "Why are you so obedient today?"
Cao'er suppressed her discomfort and shuddered as she said, "Since I've already followed you, young master, I naturally hope that when you become successful, you can take me along to enjoy the good life."
Li Shangcai laughed out loud: "Hahaha, you have a good sense of humor, I like it, that's right. Liu Guiyuan is such a useless person, what do you like about him? Following me is not better than him?"
Hearing him mention Liu Guiyuan, Cao'er felt hatred surge in his heart. He clenched his fists and said respectfully, "Yes."
"My little darling, you have learned to feel sorry for your brother. Come on, go to the bed and let your brother take good care of you."
The pain in her body was not even one ten-thousandth of the pain in her heart. Cao'er suppressed her nausea and was brought into the house by Li Shangcai.
