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

Chapter 60: Feeding the Dog

I saw Wang Gui outside the school, he was waiting for me, smoking and leaning against the wall. I walked over, and he said, "Fei Ge, the people will arrive in the evening."

I nodded and took him to the city. Once we arrived at the pedestrian street, we found a café and sat down. I used to come to places like this with Zeng Hong often. She would always bring along some fashionable friends, both from society and school. Back then, I was like a waiter, serving her tea and water. I didn't feel embarrassed; I thought it was a gentlemanly thing for a man to do, something that should be done.

But now that I think about it, I was really f*****g stupid. Back then, I was so pleased with myself for being able to go to such high-end places with beautiful girls. They were just treating me like a sidekick, like a dog!

We waited in the café for a long time, and around six in the evening, I saw a tall guy come in. He had a square face, probably around 1.9 meters tall, and his hair was spiky, looking like a punk. After he came in, Wang Gui stood up and waved.

The other person walked over and sat in front of me. He looked very strong and resolute, clearly not someone to mess with. Dressed in camouflage, he seemed hot but very spirited, giving off the impression of a soldier.

"Zhao Kui, this is my elder brother, we call him Fei Ge..." Wang Gui said.

"Fei Ge? Hehe, I thought he was some big shot. Just look at him, does he even look like a big shot?"

I listened to his words, a bit surprised. He clearly looked down on me, and rightly so. I was dressed very ordinarily, not at all like a big brother.

"Zhao Kui, are you not giving my brother any face? Do you know what my brother does?" Wang Gui said coldly.

"Black Society? Are you selling powder or people? Who are you trying to scare? Sorry, I'm a straightforward person. I see things as they are. I don't see any big brother vibe from you. At most, I see a small-time thug," Zhao Kui said.

I feel very bitter inside. My appearance gives people the impression that I'm a little gangster, but I don't mind. I said, "Everyone has their struggles. Are you willing to stick with me?"

"Ha, Fei Ge, sorry, but I see that your process is too long, and there's no chance for a breakthrough. I guess you're still a student, right?"I've seen quite a few naive people like you. When I was a class monitor, there were many university students who came in. When they first arrived, they were incredibly arrogant, even more so than a bull. But after I disciplined them for a week, they became as obedient as grandsons.Zhao Kui said.

I swallowed hard; I didn't expect this outcome. Wang Gui said, "Zhao Kui, I'm giving you a chance. Brother Fei currently has three bars to manage. Are you in or not?"

Zhao Kui said, "Security? Sorry, the bar's security not only pays little but is also more dangerous. Sorry for wasting your time, this cup of coffee is on me."

After he finished speaking, he took out his wallet, and I immediately stopped him. I said, "No need, my friend, this would be too humiliating for me. Although I don't have much ability, I can still afford this cup of coffee. Business may not have worked out, but our friendship remains. I hope you will still be good friends in the future. If you need money, come to me. I can still come up with a hundred or eighty thousand."

"One hundred thousand, eight hundred thousand..."

He mumbled something and then stood up to leave. I could tell he was really upset. Maybe I disappointed him. He thought I was some kind of big shot, but after meeting me, he realized I might not even be as good as he thought, so he left angrily.

I pinched the bridge of my nose, and Wang Gui said, "Fei Ge, I'm sorry, I didn't know..."

I said, "It's okay, it's nice to lean against a big tree for shade. My tree isn't big enough, so take your time..."

Wang Gui nodded. This is one of the things I like most about Wang Gui—he's not impatient and has a strong personality. After leaving the coffee shop with Wang Gui, I was about to leave when I saw my mom pushing a cart to sell purple rice. It broke my heart to see her. I knew she wanted to earn some money to ease my burden a bit. Moving out requires a lot of money, so she started selling purple rice as soon as she got out of the hospital.

I walked over and said, "Mom, it's so hot, you shouldn't come out."

My mom looked at me, a bit angry, and said, "How can you not come out?"Our lives are tough, and there's a saying that goes, "If we want to eat, we all have to work for it." I can't rely on you alone; you still need to study hard.

I looked at my mother's hopeful expression and nodded. At that moment, I saw a car stop in front of the café. A few women got out of the car, including Zeng Hong. She was holding her two Samoyeds and deliberately looked around before walking over here. I knew she was doing it on purpose, so I felt a bit angry.

"Oh dear, no more selling, no more selling, Xiao Fei, let's go home..."

My mom was talking while pushing the cart, looking as if she was really scared of Zeng Hong. But those girls quickly ran over and stopped my mom's cart, acting all nonchalant.

I said, "What do you want? Looking for trouble?"

Zeng Hong coldly said, "So arrogant, huh? We're just buying things, what's the problem? Is it not allowed?"

"I'm not selling you anything, let go of me, I'm leaving..."

I listened to my mom's words, looking very angry but also very scared. Zeng Hong smiled and said, "Auntie, it's me, Zeng Hong. Have you forgotten?"When I was a child, I often ate the purple rice you made.

She said this as she opened the box and took out a purple rice ball. She didn't eat it but threw it on the ground and said to the dog, "Ah Fei, hurry up, come and taste it, it's really delicious."

The two dogs sniffed around on the ground and quickly ate the purple rice. Zeng Hong said, "Auntie, since you don't have much business, just sell everything to me."

After she finished speaking, several girls hurriedly took the purple rice out of the box and threw it on the ground for the dogs to eat...

"You guys are too much. This is for people to eat, and you actually threw it on the ground for dogs. You guys are unbelievable. I'm not selling to you..."

My mom was very angry and hurried to pick up the purple rice on the floor, but the dog started barking, scaring her so much that she didn't dare to pick it up. She stood aside, very anxious, not knowing what to do.

I grabbed Zeng Hong's hand, and she looked at me in pain, saying, "What are you doing? I'm taking care of your mom's business, and you still want to hit me?"Do you have any conscience?

I said, "Zeng Hong, do you really have to do it this way?"

Zeng Hong pushed me aside, took out two banknotes from her wallet, threw them into my mom's suitcase, and said, "Is this enough? Two hundred, I've already packed it, take it out for me."

A few women, without saying a word, took purple rice from the box, threw it all on the ground after taking it out, and then Zeng Hong, pulling the dog, made them eat it one by one. I looked at Zeng Hong, and I really had no way to deal with her. She was rich and damn willful...

My mom looked at me with great pain, took out the money and threw it at Zeng Hong, saying, "I don't care about your money. Xiao Fei, let's go. Don't stoop to their level..."

My mom, seeing that I was angry and afraid I would get into a fight, pulled me away, but Zeng Hong said, "Zhao Fei, are you leaving?"Do you know who you offended last time?He's a bald guy, who doesn't know him in Kunming? He's been looking for you. You hid in Ruili and didn't dare to come back, but now that you're back, you're dead for sure.

I was listening, very angry, but before I could do anything, my mom gave her a hard shove. My mom angrily shouted, "You dare touch my son, and I'll fight you!"

Zeng Hong looked at my mom in disbelief, her eyes wide with anger, and said, "How dare you hit me?"

My mom was very angry and said, "I'm going to bite you too, this is too much, too much..."

After my mom finished speaking, she was about to bite Zeng Hong, but several women around Zeng Hong came up, grabbed my mom, and started hitting her. I couldn't stand it, so I said, "Wang Gui, hit them for me..."

Without saying a word, Wang Gui grabbed the hair of the two women, yanked them to the side, and kicked one of them in the stomach, knocking her to the ground where she couldn't get up.

Zeng Hong took a few steps back and said, "Zhao Fei, what kind of skill is it to hit a woman? Let's see if you can get through tonight..."

I wanted to go up and slap her a few times, but my mom held me back and said, "Let's see what you can do. I don't believe you won't follow the law."

Zeng Hong was very angry, but she smiled and said, "Zhao Fei, just wait..."

My mom pushed me away, and I looked at Zeng Hong without saying a word. She still glared at me fiercely, but I felt like she was very confident. I didn't know who that bald guy was, but I knew I was definitely in trouble.

We left the pedestrian street, and my mom was crying very hard. She said, "Why are people so cruel? A whole pot of purple rice, how wonderful it is, and they used it to feed dogs. It's just too despicable."

I said, "Mom, didn't she bully you like this last time too?"

My mom nodded, looking very heartbroken. I clenched my fists tightly, really furious. Damn it, Zeng Hong, messing with me is one thing, but now you're even bullying my mom? I can't stand it.

"Fei Ge, hurry up and go..."

Wang Gui suddenly grabbed me and said, I looked around, many cars had stopped, and many people had gotten out of the cars, all holding weapons. I saw one person holding a bandage and smoking a cigarette, it was Huang Qin. He saw me, pointed at me, and shouted, "It's him, catch him."

I saw dozens of people and quickly grabbed my mom and ran. A few of us ran through the alleys, deliberately taking the busier routes to block them. Finally, we ran out of the pedestrian street and flagged down a car. I said, "To Mengmao Town..."

The master drove the car, and I saw the people behind couldn't catch up, so I hurried back to drive. I knew I might have temporarily shaken them off. Damn, this Zeng Hong is really ruthless, still remembering all this. What should I do now?

I was a bit nervous, but there was no other choice; we had to go home first. The car drove to the countryside of Mengmao, and we got out and headed home. However, after just a few steps, we saw car after car chasing us. I grabbed my mom and ran quickly, but she was slow, and there were many people chasing us fast. Wang Gui took out his belt and shouted, "Fei Ge, you go ahead."

I hurriedly pulled my mom along, glanced back, and saw Wang Gui already fighting with them. Wang Gui was extremely fierce, knocking down anyone who came after him. I quickly dragged my mom home. After entering the gate, I grabbed a pole from the entrance and said, "Mom, don't go out..."

I finished speaking and walked out. I can't let Wang Gui face those people alone, absolutely not!
