Brothers, I need recommendation votes! Itâs Monday, letâs give Elder Feng some face!
ââââââââââââââââââââââ
Listening to Lu Xiaobuâs spirited voice,
Zhang Wenliang felt a pain in the liver.
Blindly going all-in with 300,000?
Whatâs the meaning of this?
Could it be that Lu Xiaobu got a good hand?
He looked at his own pair of Kings and hesitated.
"Donât want."
For the sake of steadiness, Zhang Wenliang ultimately chose not to call.
"Young Master Zhang doesnât call, Young Master Bu wins."
Liang Lan announced the result, pushing the 10,000 chip bottom bet to Lu Xiaobu.
"Damn it, I donât want to win money."
Lu Xiaobu wanted to cry without tears, throwing out his 236.
Everyone was speechlessâYou donât want to win money? Showing off too much, huh!
"Um..."
Zhang Wenliang, looking at the 236 that didnât make a flush, suddenly thought about asking his men to buy a couple of bottles of emergency heart-saving pills.
Damn it, heâs blasting me?!
At the same time, several women took advantage of Wu Qianmin being unattentive, pouncing on Lu Xiaobu, rubbing and brushing their curves against him, trying to catch the wastrelâs attention.
"Get lost." Wu Qianmin shooed them away angrily, seeing Lu Xiaobuâs mouth twisted in amusement, she felt somewhat stuffy with annoyance.
The second round began.
Look at the cards.
Liang Lan: "Young Master Zhang, your turn to speak."
Zhang Wenliang looked at his small straight, 234, and thought about it: "Letâs start with 20,000."
"All-in." Lu Xiaobu went all-in again.
"I *&*#ï¿¥%&%" Zhang Wenliang broke down: "Donât want."
He felt that even Lu Xiaobu couldnât possibly use the same tactic consecutively; this time it must be a high hand.
Liang Lan: "Young Master Zhang doesnât call, Young Master Bu wins."
"Won again, boring."
Lu Xiaobu displayed an unwilling face as he threw out his cards: 68J, not a flush, a rubbish hand.
"Li Jin, go, buy a bottle of emergency heart-saving pills." Zhang Wenliang felt like crying and called out to his bodyguard.
Liang Lan suddenly felt a bit of pity for Zhang Wenliang, so pitiful: "Young Master Zhang? Will you continue?"
"Continue, I donât buy it," Zhang Wenliang shouted.
Deal the cards.
Lu Xiaobuâs turn to speak.
This time, Lu Xiaobu couldnât be bothered to look at his cards: "All-in."
Zhang Wenliang gritted his teeth: "Iâll call!"
He had a straight flush in hand; no matter if Lu Xiaobu was blasting him or not, he had confidence.
Reveal the cards.
Liang Lan: "Young Master Bu, three of a kind wins!"
"Pfft!"
Zhang Wenliang spurted out old blood, snatching the emergency heart-saving pills from the bodyguard Li Jinâs hand and stuffed them into his mouth.
"Hey, I really donât want to win money." Lu Xiaobu, looking at the system displayed squandering amount: negative 330,000, also felt helplessâthis is not how it should be.
The people in the bar were speechlessâYoung Master Bu, please donât provoke Young Master Zhang anymore, as you keep claiming you donât want to win money while taking the opponent apart.
Liang Lan looked at Lu Xiaobu, her eyes narrowed slightlyâYou wastrel, youâve piqued my interest now. Do you truly not care, or are you deliberately trapping Zhang Wenliang?
Zhang Wenliang felt like dying, 300,000 ah, not the same as the millions of pocket money Lu Xiaobu gets a month, this was his entire monthly allowance, and it was gone just like that.
Zhang Wenliangâs eyes reddenedânot okay, canât just let it end like this.
"Continue!" Zhang Wenliang said with bloodshot eyes: "I have a share in this bar, definitely worth 600,000, no less, Iâll bet it against you."
"Young Master Zhang." The whole room was shocked, this wasnât just for fun anymore, whatever the outcome, this was now getting to the level of the elders of both families.
"Everyone shut up!" Zhang Wenliang shouted with red eyes.
A head may be beheaded, blood may flow, but pride cannot be lost.
"Xiaobu." Wu Qianmin also got worried, grabbing Lu Xiaobu.
"Donât worry, not betting anymore."
Lu Xiaobu patted Wu Qianminâs delicate hand, reassuring her.
Heâs a wastrel, not a gambler; âmoney canât buy happinessâ is his principle.
The stakes of the game had now risen to this level, and he was no longer enjoying it.
Liang Lan secretly noddedâknowing when to advance or retreat, this wastrel was indeed not ordinary.
"Donât bet? Whether we bet or not isnât for you to decide." Zhang Wenliangâs eyes were red as he slapped the table, "Won a bit of money and now you want to leave? No way! Li Jin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his bodyguard Li Jin immediately blocked the barâs entrance.
"Whatâs this? You want to get physical with me?" Lu Xiaobuâs expression darkened.
"I wouldnât go as far as to get physical; I, Zhang Wenliang, am not that low. But you definitely wonât be able to leave through this door. My bodyguard here is an ex-Special Soldier." Zhang Wenliang said, "Young Master Lu, I just want you to gamble with me one last time, regardless of the outcome, I, Zhang Wenliang, will accept it."
"Iâm telling you, Iâm not happy," Lu Xiaobu said slowly, word by word, "Iâm telling you one last time, I donât want to bet."
"Donât bet, then you can forget about leaving," Zhang Wenliang also stared fixedly at Lu Xiaobu, "Young Master Lu, you didnât bring any bodyguards."
Wu Qianmin tightly clutched Lu Xiaobuâs arm, extremely nervousâit was all her fault, she shouldnât have agreed to come to this kind of place with Lu Xiaobu.
The entire bar became tense, everyone held their breath for Lu Xiaobu, it was clear that Young Master Zhang was determined to get Lu Xiaobu.
"Bang."
Just then, the barâs main door was suddenly kicked open, and Zhang Wenliangâs Special Soldier bodyguard Li Jin was sent flying out, lying on the ground.
"Young Master, Zhang Meng reporting."
That lackey Lu Xiaobu picked up at the phone store during the dayâZhang Meng, appeared at the doorway.
"Good, perfect timing, reward five thousand," Lu Xiaobu said with joy, waving his hand grandly.
"Thank you, Young Master," Zhang Meng responded, his expression seemingly happy, but lacking the eagerness he showed in the morning.
"Young Master Lu really knows how to keep a low profile," Zhang Wenliangâs face grew even darker, "So, you were ready to smash my place all along, huh?"
"Iâm very unhappy today," Lu Xiaobu twisted his neck, pointing towards the door, "Everyone whoâs not involved should leave now."
"Thank you, Young Master Bu," the crowd hurriedly expressed gratitude.
This was the difference. Until the very end, Zhang Wenliang did not let them leave, even though it was his own place.
Then look at Young Master Bu, who immediately told them to leave.
After most of the people had gone.
"Zhang Meng, start smashing, keep going until Iâm satisfied."
"Yes!" Zhang Meng acknowledged.
While speaking, he swung a chair and smashed it into the liquor cabinets.
"Bang."
Countless expensive bottles of alcohol burst open.
The entire bar was now filled with the fragrance of liquor.
Zhang Meng did not stop his hands and feet, smashing everything in frenzy.
"Damn it! Li Jin, what the hell are you doing?" Zhang Wenliang was furious.
"Well, Young Master Zhang, I..." Li Jin was a bit troubled.
"What âIâ? If you donât fight, then get out!" Zhang Wenliang bellowed even louder.
Li Jin, with a troubled look on his face, ultimately walked up to Zhang Meng.
"You want to fight me?" Zhang Mengâs expression was calm, but it put immense pressure on Li Jin.
"Instructor, we each serve our own master..." Li Jin found it difficult to speak.
At these words, the already enraged Zhang Wenliang was dumbfounded, "Instructor? Heâs your instructor?"
What the hell was this?
His own bodyguardâs instructor was Lu Xiaobuâs bodyguard; how could he even fight?
"Instructor?" Wu Qianmin was stunned too.
She remembered Zhang Wenliang mentioning his bodyguard was a Special Soldier.
So, Zhang Meng was the instructor of a Special Soldier?!
What was even scarier was that Lu Xiaobu hired such a person for just ten thousand a month?
Not to mention far off, even the salary Zhang Wenliang gave to his own bodyguard wouldnât be fifty thousand, right?
No, was Lu Xiaobuâs luck? It was unthinkably good!
Thinking back about the morning, she even said Zhang Meng was a fraud, which made her face burn with embarrassment!
Zhang Meng stared at the bodyguard in front of him, took another step forward: "Fight if you want to fight, otherwise beat it, donât wail like a baby!"
"Alright, Instructor, forgive my insolence!"
"Ha!"
Li Jin let out a deep cry and swung his fist in a punch.
"Too slow, too weak, filled with mercy towards the enemy, what have you been doing since you left the military?!"
Zhang Meng roared, deflecting the bodyguardâs punch with his left hand, then fiercely punched down with his right hand.
Li Jinâs complexion changed, and he quickly moved to block.
"Bang."
Li Jin was forcefully pushed back several steps, leaning against the bar, showing pain on his face.
This so-called Special Soldier bodyguard was no match for one move from Zhang Meng.
Was this the power of an instructor?!
