King of Gamblers: Growing from a Student to a Jade King

 The buzzing sound fills my mind, and at seven in the morning, Kunming feels like a steamer. The sun scorches the earth as I sit on the high-speed train, heading to Ruili.

 The matter with Xuanling has been resolved. Zeng Hong promised not to trouble Xuanling again. Although Zeng Hong is quite despicable, I grew up with her and know her temperament. She is very stubborn and will definitely follow through on what she says.

 So, I'm not worried about Zeng Hong, but the only one I'm worried about is Huang Qin. Qian Laowu cut off one of his fingers. Huang Qin is a rich second-generation heir from a wealthy family. I don't know if he will come looking for trouble with me again. Right now, the only thing on my mind is that if Huang Qin is scared, he really won't dare to mess with me anymore. But if he's not scared, I will definitely have more trouble in the future

 When I arrived in Ruili, I got off the high-speed train and was about to take a taxi, but then I saw a black car rushing towards me. I was so scared that I stood frozen in place. The door suddenly opened, and a burly man got out of the car. He was wearing a floral shirt and a big gold chain, and he smiled at me, missing a front tooth. He was very tall and said, "Zhao Fei, right? Boss Zhang wants

 He said this and without further ado shoved me into the car. There were many people inside, surrounding me. I felt a bit panicked, not expecting that someone was already watching me. He mentioned Zhang Laoda, it should be Fat Pig Zhu. I didn't know what he wanted to talk to me about, and I felt very uneasy. Even a fool would know that he and Brother Guang are rivals. Last time, they clashed with each other, and now he's got me again. It definitely can't

 I bite my fingers; it's a bad habit of mine. I bite my fingers when I'm nervous. I knew that being with Qian Guang would have a strong impact on my life, and I would get caught up in some kind of conflict, but I didn't expect it to come so soon.

 "Brother Zhao Fei, don't be nervous. Boss Zhang is looking for you just to invite you for a drink. There's no malice. Our boss is a good person. You can just call me Sha Qiang. Our boss instructed me to treat you well."

 I listened to this person's words and gave an awkward smile. He was smiling on the surface but not genuinely. I understood the meaning behind his words. If he really wanted to invite me for a drink, there was no need to do it this way. No one is a fool; it's just that no one wants to tear the facade apart.

 The car came to a stop, the door opened, and I obediently got out. After getting out, I looked up and saw a very tall building, nearly thirty stories high. At the entrance, there was a large sign that read "Ruili Grand World." I knew this was a nightclub, a very high-end place of consumption.

 Shang Qiang and I walked to the bottom of the nightclub, and immediately six waitresses in red qipaos came up to greet us warmly. They were no older than twenty-five, exuding a sense of sensuality and elegance.

 Sha Qiang dragged me into the nightclub, and soon a waitress politely came over and asked, "Brother Qiang, so early?"

 "Zhang Laoda booked a private room," Shaqiang said, looking at her.

 "Strange, Boss Zhang isn't playing at his own nightclub, but came to ours?""Isn't your girl getting bored? How about trying something new?" the waitress said with a sweet smile.

 "Let's talk about serious matters. If you're feeling frisky, I can play along too. Where's our boss?" Sha Qiang asked.

 "Brother Qiang, Boss Zhang has been here for a while. Please come this way!" the waitress said.

 After hearing this, Sha Qiang reached into my pocket and fished around for a bit. I watched as my phone was taken out, and Sha Qiang said, "Brother Zhao Fei, our boss likes to be serious when discussing matters, so we'll temporarily keep your phone for you."

 After he finished talking to the beautiful waitress, he immediately put my phone into a bag and took it away. Silly Qiang dragged me away. I felt like a controlled chick. Although I was unwilling in my heart, I had no choice. I had no ability to protect myself and could only be at their mercy. This feeling was really frustrating.

 Arriving at the elevator door, I saw several beautiful female attendants. One was holding the elevator door, while another was using a walkie-talkie to notify upstairs to prepare to welcome us. This isn't Fat Pig Zhu's nightclub; it should belong to someone else. However, Fat Pig Zhu must have a high status here; otherwise, these people wouldn't be showing such respect to Sha Qiang.

 Three beautiful waitresses accompanied us in the elevator. In the narrow elevator, the faint scent of their perfume filled the air, and the waitress in the qipao kept her body pressed against us.

 The most enchanting one among them even pressed her jade leg from the slit of her qipao against the back of my hand, and they occasionally winked at me, their bodies swaying unsteadily.

 "Damn, so flirty, huh? Is the skinny monkey not feeding you well, so you come looking for me..." Sha Qiang teased the three beauties.

 They didn't say a word, just a continuous fit of flirtatious laughter. This scene was truly enchanting.

 As soon as the elevator doors opened, I saw a group of women standing in the hallway. When they saw us coming, they smiled at us incessantly, like wolves seeing meat.

 "Brother Qiang, who is this young guy? How come Boss Zhang is giving him so much face?"

 I watched these women constantly sizing me up and flirting, and I felt a bit nervous. I didn't know if this was a feast or a debauchery, but I thought that regardless of which it was, the end result would be for profit. Fat Pig Zhu couldn't possibly do so much for me for nothing.

 "These are..." I asked the silly Qiang beside me.

 "Hey, if you agree to Zhang Laoda, you can do whatever you want with these women..." Sha Qiang said.

 After listening, I already have a bit of an idea. Boss Zhang called me over, so he must want me to do something. But what can I do?All I can do is gamble on the stones. Sure enough, everything is for profit.

 The waitress took Shaqiang and me to a dimly lit area. There were quite a few women in the room, serving drinks and fruit platters. When they saw us, they kept nodding.

 I looked at the private room; the decor here is very extravagant and impressive. The space is large, with a big sofa, golden-colored floor tiles, and wallpaper featuring oil paintings of nude women, giving a sense of opulence that makes one blush.

 At that moment, I saw someone walking out of the bathroom, wearing golden casual clothes and a big gold chain around his neck. He had a round face and was very fat, just like Fat Pig Zhu.

 "Boss Zhang, hello!" I said politely as I stepped forward.

 "Zhao Fei, please have a seat. Would you like white wine or red wine?" Zhang Laoda said politely.

 "Boss Zhang, red wine, please. I don't drink alcohol," I said.

 "A man should drink baijiu, what's the point of drinking red wine?" said Zhang Laoda.

 After he finished speaking, the waiter immediately knelt down and poured a glass of white liquor for me.

 I watched nervously. Although Boss Zhang appeared to be amiable, his actions and decisions were domineering. He openly gave me a choice, but once I made my decision, he didn't listen. Everything was under his control.

 "Zhao Fei, have a drink to warm up first, come on, cheers!" Zhang Laoda said as he raised his glass.

 "Thank you for your hospitality, Boss Zhang!" I said, raising my glass.

 Zhang Laoda drank the wine and then smiled at me. This smile gave me an ominous feeling in my heart.

 "You all leave first, I need to talk to Zhao Fei," Zhang Laoda waved his hand and said.

 All the ladies and waiters, leave the room immediately.

 "Zhao Fei, how much did that bastard Qian Guang win last time?" Boss Zhang asked sternly.

 Zhang Laoda's expression was very tense, which made me tense up as well. Sure enough, it was about the gambling stone issue. The fact that I helped Qian Guang win money is no secret, and it's not hard for Zhang Laoda to know, but now that he has brought me here, he must want me to help him gamble on stones. However, Qian Guang and I are brothers. If I help Fei Zhu Zhu, it would be like betraying my own side...

 "Not much, just a few million..." I said vaguely.

 "Zhao Fei, you really have some nerve, just a few hundred thousand? You really are something, but whether it's one hundred thousand or five hundred thousand, it's still a hundred thousand. So, is it one hundred thousand or five hundred thousand?" Boss Zhang asked nervously.

 "Boss Zhang, it was actually luck. It just so happened that Boss Wei brought out a good piece, so he won quite a bit of money. It was all luck," I explained.

 After listening to me, Boss Zhang lit a cigarette and gave me a mysterious smile. His smile was one of those hollow smiles, as if he could see through everything, which gave me a sense of fear inside.

 Zhang Laoda glanced at Shaqiang, his expression serious as he looked at the wine glass on the table. Suddenly, he picked up the glass and said, "Shaqiang, Zhao Fei is quite the person, huh? Come on, let's have another big drink and warm up a bit."

 "Zhao Fei, this is for you, come on, cheers!" Sha Qiang said. After he finished speaking, he grabbed the beer glass on the table and downed it in one go. It was all liquor!

 I know what Boss Zhang means. He's angry because I was being sly with him. We're both smart people.

 "Can I drink half? I really can't handle alcohol," I said helplessly. After this drink, I think I'll be done for.

 Sha Qiang and Zhang Laoda both laughed in unison, and Zhang Laoda said, "You look down on me? Half?"

 I looked at their smiling faces and knew that I had to drink this cup of alcohol no matter what. I raised the cup without saying much, tilted my head back, and drank it down. It was very strong and spicy, burning all the way down to my stomach.

 "Okay..." Boss Zhang and Shiqiang said simultaneously. I could only give an awkward smile, then hold my stomach.

 Zhang Laoda took out a box, opened it, and it was filled with golden-yellow old man heads. I was dumbfounded. Then Zhang Laoda handed me a large stack of cash, probably no less than fifty thousand, which surprised me a bit!

 "Boss Zhang, this..." I didn't know what to say.

 "Zhao Fei, people die for wealth, birds die for food. I understand this principle very well. As long as you help me well, I won't treat you poorly in the future. I'm not someone who likes to beat around the bush. I heard from Boss Wei that you helped Qian Guang gamble on stones and won at least over ten million. But I also know that you got less than one-tenth of that. Whatever Qian Guang gives you, I'll give you twice as much.Zhang Laoda said.

 This Zhang boss is not simple. He looks foolish, but he knows how to win people over with money. The question is, should I agree?
