Flourishing Life to the End - C198
I look at Shangguan Qian’s back, Shangguan Qian should be very loyal to Ye Tong, even if he hates me.
However, Shangguan Qian’s words seemed to have a deeper meaning to them. Maybe there was a time when I was trapped in the prison and Ye Tong was indeed helping me secretly, but I did not know.
Halfway through my meal, Ye Tong walked in. Looking at the way I ate, he slightly frowned. I ridiculed in my heart, if this was a time where my appetite was good, I was afraid that he would have a square character on his head.
Ye Tong sat in front of me without any warning, and I didn’t have much of a reaction. This is his territory, if you want to eat, I really can’t stop you.
Ye Tong just looked at me like this, and sure enough, he picked up a pair of chopsticks, and started to eat. I thought about Shangguan Qian’s protection, thought about Ye Tong’s confession earlier, and couldn’t help but narcissistically think that Ye Tong wanted to eat with me.
“I will invite Long Zijin over.” Ye Tong said as he ate, but I didn’t reply.
Although the death of Mu Yuan and his wife wasn’t really related to the Long family, Ye Tong still felt that all three of them were the culprits who killed his parents.
Han Jianchen and Feng Jianye had already received their due punishment in Ye Tong’s eyes, and now, only Long Yuan remained. Long Yuan and Liu Xiaoze had already started living a secluded life, luckily they had two sons, so paying off their debts could be considered reasonable.
Maybe I knew from the beginning that Ye Tong didn’t like Long Zijin and Bai Ze and had always been opposing them, but I didn’t expect that Ye Tong would actually bear a grudge against them.
“Do you want to use me to threaten Ye Tong?” I asked as I ate.
Ye Tong did not say anything, since you want me to do it, I am definitely the bait, I looked at the food on the table, and immediately got more full.
This meal was extremely depressing, and neither of us spoke another word. We only heard the sound of chopsticks clamping on food, and I could even hear the sound of my own chewing. The room was terrifyingly quiet, and and I were the only ones there.
I wonder what old Long Zijin is doing right now. If he knew I’m here, would he suddenly lose his temper and rush over? As I watched the clock tick by, I made the worst decision.
At eight o’clock at night, there was actually a window in my room that allowed me to see the moon outside. The moon was so bright that even though there were no stars, the moon was still round and large, making it impossible for me to sleep tonight.
“Dang, dang, dang.” There was a burst of hurried knocking on the door, there was a hint of impatience in the voice, and it was easy to guess that it belonged to Shangguan Qian.
“Let’s go.” Shangguan Qian said impatiently, I also followed behind helplessly, looks like Long Zijin had already arrived. After walking a few steps, Shangguan Qian suddenly put handcuffs on my hands and ankles. He then put tape on my mouth.
I slowly walked forward and arrived at a magnificent casino. The casino was very large, but there was only a single casino table. It seemed that only VIP people would bet money here. I looked at the furnishings inside the casino, they were all European style decorations, this was exactly the same as how Ye Tong had lived abroad for so many years.
Then I was taken to the second floor, where I sat in a window, my eyes blindfolded, and I could only hear people coming in.
I waited for a very long time. Perhaps it was because of the blindfold on my eyes, but time always passed by very slowly, and finally, the sound of footsteps could be heard. I was unable to tell who it was, but at this moment, I heard Ye Tong’s voice.
“Please take a seat.” It looks like Long Zijin has already arrived. I don’t know if they can see me from above, but if Long Zijin saw me like this, he probably would be worried.
“Where’s Yi Yi?” I heard it, it was Long Zijin’s voice. He suppressed his emotions, but I knew that there was anxiety in his voice, and tears fell from the corners of my eyes.
“Pa!” I felt that the thing in front of me had been opened, but I still couldn’t see the outside. I could only hear a female voice, thinking that Liu Tanqing would definitely not let Dong’er come to this kind of situation, and the only person who could be brought in was Liu Ming.
Maybe it was because I was frightened by the way I was shackled, and I don’t know what I was like, but I knew they were worried, and I looked anxious, or at least anxious, to be able to see them.
“Make a bet. If you win, let her down. If you lose, my underlings will push her down the stairs.” Ye Tong slowly said. I didn’t hear Long Zijin’s voice, the scene was very quiet, as if it was an ordinary night.
After a very long time, I faintly heard Long Zijin say “good” and Liu Tanqing said “Long Zijin in a small voice.” I know that no one is willing to bet with me, but there was no way out.
I was upstairs, covering my eyes. The world before me was shrouded in darkness, and I was in an extremely bad mood. I didn’t know why, but my head started to hurt violently as well.
“Let’s compete in the simplest way. Draw a card for each match. We’ll say who’s the boss and who’s the winner.” Ye Tong carried his request. He had run a casino for so many years, he believed that Ye Tong was probably a good gambler too.
Regarding Long Zijin, I have really never seen him gambling before, nor do I know if Long Zijin is someone who knows how to gamble. I thought to myself, if I fall down, he would probably be very sad and regretful, and hurt me and the child.
I know that the person beside me is Shangguan Qian. Although he did not speak, I could feel his presence.
Shangguan Qian’s hand was tightly grabbing onto the rope on my body. I sat on the chair like this, and I didn’t know what exactly was in front of me.
“8.” I heard Ye Tong say 8, 8 is already a large number, the probability of Long Zijin winning is not high, when people lose their sight, their hearing would become much sharper, I carefully listened to the numbers that Long Zijin read out.
“Put Yi Yi down, my number is bigger than yours, I’m 10.” Long Zijin’s number is 10. I wasn’t pushed down the stairs, I was only led down by Shangguan Qian.
I don’t know how far I walked, but I sat down on a chair.
