Chapter 112: Chapter 112: There is Always Knocking at the Door

Everyone saw what happened.

But it didn’t bring any feelings to the people at the table.

The winners thought their luck was booming and firmly believed they wouldn’t end up in that situation.

The losers were even more absorbed, their eyes bloodshot as they stared at the card table.

Only Yue Jiannan, who had things weighing on his mind, watched this scene, feeling numb from the spine up.

Mao Hui used to be a young man envied by the village, the only child in his family, exceptionally loved by his parents, which made others jealous of his life.

...

But now he looked just like his mother described, like trash stuck in the mud.

After someone helped Mao Hui away, You Zhichao greeted people in the room with a smile again.

“Let’s continue, don’t lose the fun.”

Human joys and sorrows do not convey, no one took Mao Hui’s situation to heart, at most, they casually lamented his poor luck, wondering if he didn’t wash his hands after using the restroom.

He used to win money quite often when he first came here.

The room became lively again, with You Zhichao pacing back and forth, occasionally greeting those who won more money with a grin.

After distributing a round of cigarettes, You Zhichao stepped outside again.

The weather had already turned cold, yet a few men stood like pillars outside, puffing out smoke while looking around.

“Nothing unusual today, right?”

“Don’t worry, You bro, we’re watching. If anything happens, we’ll notify inside right away.”

You Zhichao nodded and then returned to the room satisfied.

There were a few people in the room he was always watching, including Yue Jiannan.

Yue Jiannan had lost two rounds but won a big one afterward, which made him quite proud.

You Zhichao watched from a distance and sneered inwardly.

Just then, the door was knocked on again, and the alert people in the room paused, stowing the cards again.

Since there was no alarm from outside, You Zhichao casually opened the door, only to find no one there.

But wait…

He looked down and saw two little bundles at his feet.

“We’re here to find uncle,” Yue Xingxing said before she could finish, coughing incessantly, choked by the smoke inside.

“Looking for uncle,” Yue Qingqing repeated, peeking curiously into the room.

The children were so attractive that everyone in the room involuntarily stopped and stared curiously at the two kids.

No one knew how they had found the place.

Yue Jiannan hastily threw the freshly dealt cards aside, “Sorry, I have to skip this round; I need to check on the kids at home.”

The dealer, who was just about to heavily cut into Yue Jiannan’s stack, twitched a corner of his mouth, thinking the guy was lucky.

“How did you find this place?” Yue Jiannan squatted down.

Yue Xingxing, seeing so many people in the room, hid frightened behind Yue Qingqing.

But it was the younger Yue Qingqing who replied nonchalantly, “Grandma said it’s time to eat.”

“Then how did you find your way here?”

“Asked people.”

Yue Qingqing’s mature behavior was greatly admired, even You Zhichao couldn’t help but laugh.

“Why don’t you go back and eat first? Don’t let your mom find this place.” He also had heard of Widow Lin’s temperament and doubted he could handle her.

Yue Jiannan was reluctant, “I’m on a good streak here…”

Zhu Fei also helped persuade, “Coming back in the afternoon will be the same; we’ll save a spot for you.”

They were afraid Lin Chunju would find the place as she might even flip the card table when she arrived.

“Ah, alright, you guys better save me a seat.”

Only then did Yue Jiannan walk outside, his face clearly unhappy, which made You Zhichao feel even more reassured.

This man was already addicted; he definitely wouldn’t stop coming.

Not long after Yue Jiannan left, someone knocked on the door again.

Being disturbed repeatedly and without any special alerts from outside, You Zhichao didn’t think much this time.

He assumed it was just someone looking for him again.

Annoyed, he opened the door…
