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

 People who betray their own for personal gain never end up well, and I don't like this Fat Pig Zhu. He seems amiable, but in reality, he is treacherous and cunning, nowhere near Brother Guang. I can sense the difference in their demeanor; he is unreasonable and lacks loyalty. Under him, you will always be a subordinate. As long as you displease him, your life will be miserable.

 "Boss Zhang, I'm just a student. I won the gamble on the stone; I was just lucky," I said.

 "Well... luck is very important, but right now, I just want you to work with me. What do you think?" Zhang Laoda said.

 I looked at Zhang Laoda's expression; he no longer had the kind smile he used to have. Leaning on the sofa, he looked at me, making me feel very conflicted. I knew this was his last chance for me.

 I shook my head and said, "No, Boss Zhang, Brother Guang is still waiting for me..."

 "Zhao Fei, that kid Qian Guang doesn't have any real power. His achievements today are just because he's good at fighting. But in today's society, who still fights? Besides, if it weren't for his father, he would have been killed a long time ago. He can't protect you, as you can see from what happened with Boss Li. He had to cut off his own arm. But following me is different, I guarantee, with me, you won't suffer any grievances."Zhang Laoda said.

 "Boss Zhang, thank you, but after all, I'm following Brother Guang. No matter what, I have to say a word to him." I said.

 "Zhao Fei, don't be fooled by Qian Guang's talk about brotherhood and loyalty. In this world, it's all about money. Only with money is there loyalty. As long as you stick with me, he won't dare to say anything. If he does, I'll handle it for you," said Zhang Laoda.

 I know it's already a point of no return, but I can't agree. I said, "Boss Zhang, let's talk about it."

 After listening, Boss Zhang laughed for a moment, then his expression turned very ugly. He picked up his cup and drank heavily, the atmosphere became very tense. I looked at Shaqiang, but he just glared at me, all the previous politeness was gone. I knew that the coming storm would leave me utterly devastated.

 "Zhao Fei, do you usually go to nightclubs?" Boss Zhang said.

 "Zhang Laoda, I'm just a student, I don't play often," I said.

 "Zhao Fei, let's just have some fun," said Boss Zhang.

 After he finished speaking, he waved to Sha Qiang, who quickly went out. After a while, the manager soon brought in a few young women. After they came in, they unbuttoned their clothes, revealing their flawless, fair skin.

 I looked at those slender waists and those long, white legs, feeling a bit surprised. I didn't know what Boss Zhang meant by this.

 Zhang Laoda said, "Everyone, get down on the ground..."

 These women obediently lay down on the ground. Zhang Laoda took out a handful of money and scattered it towards the women. The women smiled with delight. Zhang Laoda said, "Bark like a dog a few times for me to hear."

 I stared blankly, wondering how these women could endure such humiliation, and even do so willingly.

 Zhang Laoda stood up, suddenly grabbed my shoulder, leaned down to look at me, and said, "Zhao Fei, do you want to be a dog or do you want to be a person?"

 I said, "Boss Zhang, I don't understand what you mean?"

 Sha Qiang suddenly grabbed my hair and pulled me up, saying, "Act like a dog, just like them. Now, obediently lie down on the ground and bark like a dog for me."

 My hair was being pulled, and I felt deeply humiliated. The kind demeanor from before had now turned into a vicious face.

 I looked at Zhang Laoda and I knew he wasn't a good person. Zhang Laoda walked up to me, reached out and patted my face, saying, "Zhao Fei, I think it's better to be a person. At least you can stand. If you become a dog, you'll have to obey others. I have a hundred ways to make you my dog. I guarantee, each one is something you wouldn't want to experience. Do you want to think about it?"

 After he finished speaking, he grabbed a woman's hair and pressed her head onto his lap.

 Boss Zhang is very domineering; you can foresee his dominance. I know that if I don't agree, he will use extremely ruthless methods to deal with me. This is something I don't want to see and don't want to endure, so I have to be weak for now and endure it temporarily.

 I nodded and said, "Got it, Boss Zhang... I'll follow you..."

 Boss Zhang extended his hand, shook it in front of me, then shook it a few more times, kicked the woman in front of him away, and said to me, "Zhao Fei, you need to know the right time. I can't stand people who don't know the right time. If you say you're with me, then you must be with me wholeheartedly. I also don't like people who play both sides, so if you want to sever ties with Qian Guang, what do you think is

 I swallowed hard; Fat Pig Zhu is truly a malicious person. He doesn't easily trust others, and he doesn't trust me, so he wants me to break ties with Qian Guang. That way, I would have no choice but to follow him. I said, "I'll go gamble with you..."

 "Alright, this method is good. The people on the road are all smart. Since you helped me with this task, Qian Guang naturally won't make things difficult for you. If he dares to make things difficult for you, I'll take care of him. Let's go, let's have some fun," said Fat Pig Zhu.

 He said, while picking up the suitcase, "The money on the ground is for you..."

 "Thank you, Brother Zhang..."

 I watched as those women frantically scrambled for money, completely disregarding their bodies exposed to the outside. Here, what dignity and shame were there? It was all just desires piled up on money. I was pushed and shoved, and when I looked up, I saw Shiqiang glaring at me. Only then did I come to my senses and walk out in a daze.

 After leaving Ruili World, I looked back and saw that this was the most humiliating place in my life. I was pushed into a car, and I saw Fat Pig Zhu on the phone, looking very aggrieved.

 "Wife, I'm really discussing business, I swear, if you don't believe me, ask Shiqiang..."

 I looked at Fat Pig Zhu's face; he seemed very scared and was exchanging glances with Silly Qiang. I saw Silly Qiang stammering to handle it, and I found it a bit strange. I didn't expect Fat Pig Zhu to have someone he was afraid of—his wife. I don't know who his wife is, but she must be someone who can scare Fat Pig Zhu so much.

 I watched Fat Pig Zhu hang up the phone and said a bit angrily, "Bastard, find out who the hell leaked the secret. I wasn't playing in my own store because I was afraid my wife would find out, but I didn't expect him to find out anyway. Find out who it is, and if you do, cut off his tongue for me and shut him up..."

 Shang Qiang nodded and then started driving. I sat silently in the car, feeling very anxious. I didn't know if I should really betray Brother Guang and follow Fat Pig Zhu. I thought about it back and forth, and finally made a decision. I absolutely cannot follow Fat Pig Zhu. If he can humiliate me like this once, he can do it again. As long as I can't satisfy him, he will use cruel means to force me. I absolutely cannot tolerate a second time.

 But how do I get rid of him?This is a huge problem, and it's absolutely impossible for me to solve it on my own, so I can only rely on Brother Guang. Yes, I can only rely on Brother Guang.

 The car drove to the Dachang Jadeite Gambling Shop. There were many customers on the first floor. Fat Pig Zhu led me through the crowd to the counter, where I saw Boss Wei. He politely said to Fat Pig Zhu, "How did Boss Zhang think of coming to my place to have fun?"

 "Of course, I'm here to dominate, I've brought a little brother with me, he's got a keen eye. If you have any good stuff, bring it out," Fat Pig Zhu said arrogantly.

 I know what he means by being so arrogant; he wants to push me out and let everyone know that I followed him, Fat Pig Zhu. I looked at Boss Wei looking at me, his eyes a bit surprised, and he said, "Brother Zhao Fei, you were with Qian Guang before..."

 "Hmph, what does money mean? Brother Zhao Fei is a smart person, of course he will follow someone with a bright future. Enough nonsense, bring me the materials," Fat Pig Zhu said angrily.

 Boss Wei forced a smile and then led us upstairs. I was pushed by Sha Qiang and didn't have a chance to run. I never even thought about running. Even if I did manage to escape, what would I do afterwards?With Zhu Ban's arrogant demeanor, like a fat pig, I would definitely end up in a bad situation.

 When I got upstairs, I saw quite a few gamblers picking stones. Fat Pig Zhu said, "Brother Zhao Fei, I have a million here, take a look..."

 After he finished speaking, he sat down and opened the box. I looked at the cash inside—there was a lot, a million. Although a million is a lot, in their eyes, it's nothing. Their monthly revenue is even more than this. Fat Pig Zhu still doesn't really trust me. If he truly trusted me, he would have burned his boats and made a big bet.

 But betting on stones really isn't just about skill; it also relies on luck and fate. Even if you have money, if you don't come across good materials, you're still empty-handed.

 I walked over to the rough stone storage area, and Boss Wei was beside me, laughing as he said, "Brother Zhao Fei, this Boss Zhang is not a decent person. Following him..."

 I frowned. Although I didn't know whether Boss Wei was being sincere or just pretending, his reminder inadvertently told me that he was concerned about me. I had no choice but to say helplessly, "The situation forces me to do this; there's no other way."

 Boss Wei sighed and said, "Brother Zhao Fei, if you don't want to be manipulated by them, come to me. In the jade gambling industry, we have a profession called 'Jade Appraiser.' As long as you join me here, I can introduce you to Master Qi and use some connections to help you reconcile. Neither side will be offended, and I guarantee you will live a stable life."

 I looked at Boss Wei. Although he always appeared polite and humble, I knew this person had skills. But what good would it do to follow him?If I really were a cash cow, would Fat Pig Zhu let me go?I'm afraid it won't matter who I ask for help; in the end, I'll just end up with a lot of trouble.

 A person must have a beginning and an end; otherwise, they won't have a good ending...
