Chapter 17 – The boy that won $10,000 yesterday is here again 

Li Yu thought the school principal would still call him throughout the day, before the school closed, unfortunately, he was not called, so Li Yu does not know whether Mo Feng's father had known about the issue or not.

"Bro is something on your mind?!"

Li Yu and Huizhong are currently on their way to the casino shop.

Huizhong had been asking this same question for the umpteenth time today, he felt that Li Yu was hiding something from him.

"Bro, you've been asking this same question repeatedly, do I resemble someone with a thing on his mind that much?!" Li Yu asked jokingly.

"Trust me, bro, you certainly do resemble someone with a lot on his mind, one second, we'd be talking and joking, the next second you'd be frowning and muttering to yourself."

"Hahaha, I was only thinking of what game I would play today."

Li Yu did not lie, what had been on his mind, well most of the time today was the game that would give him 1000 times the $1,000 his mother forcefully gave him last night.

He felt that in this year and generation where little money is still very valuable, he should be able to take Mo Feng and his father out of the way if he was able to win a million dollars or more.

Li Yu had been busy thinking of what would give him at least a thousandfold in return if he were to gamble.

Li Yu would not have thought this far if roulette is a sure play game, but he knew they would definitely have changed all the roulette settings, and he would unable to win any jackpot as he did yesterday.

Li Yu had been thinking on repeat since;

"I've got multiple offers now, but which one would give me at least a thousand folds in return?"

When Huizhong heard that Li Yu was only thinking if what game he would play, he felt more curious again.

"When did my brother learn so much about betting?!"

"Hai brother, you've been learning about gambling since all this while, but you refused to carry me along."

Huizhong answered his question by himself, he felt that his answer should be the most probable truth.

He decided to enter his own imaginary world too and stop distracting his brother's thoughts.

Huizhong began to plan how he would spend the money when he got his.

Li Yu had told Huizhong this morning that he had given the whole money they won yesterday to his mom, and he only had $1,000 left with him.

Huizhong does not care about this at all, he felt that that's a natural thing to do, which was quite contradictory to how deep his love for money is.

With how greedy Huizhong was with money, he does not actually get mad or thinks at all about the fact that the money he was busy thinking of how to spend all night was gone like that.

Although he does not care at all about that, yet when Li Yu told him they would be playing another bet today, Huizhong was over the moon excited again.

When Huizhong thought he wanted to enter his own imaginary world, what he meant was to start thinking and planning how he would spend his $33,000 when he got it.

Huizhong had thought they were only going to try 100 times today.

Even thinking of the $33,000 he's likely to get today felt like an impossible dream to Huizhong.

"With that huge amount of money, I would be able to buy everything I want, and I would be able to give dad and mom a huge money to enlarge their business."

"F*ck… who the f*ck are you?!"

Huizhing suddenly felt that he was dragged roughly by someone, he could not help but curse angrily.

"You are the one who is a f*ck. Do you even watch where you are going at all?! Do you realize you were just about to be hit by a vehicle?"

Li Yu berated Huizhong in anger.

When Huizhong heard what his brother said, he couldn't help but feel a cold chill run in and out of his body.

Huizhong laughed awkwardly and hugged Li Yu's neck.

"That's why you are my, Huizhong bro. I know you would always get my back, that's the reason I allowed myself to get lost in thought."

"Tah… Just say you were busy thinking of your beautiful crush, I won't mock you." Li Yu mocked.

"F*ck you bro," Huizhong replied in a serious voice.

Ignoring him, Li Yu raised his head to look at the huge board.

"We are there."

"There? Where?!"

Looking at his bro in forgetfulness, Huizhong asked.

"Hai, my bro is such an idiot, where are we going before?"

"You want to receive another beating from me, right? how dare you call me an- wait?! We are at the casino shop already?! How fast?"

Huizhong who was about to start another session of word war immediately got distracted when he registered what his brother mean.

Li Yu rolled his eyes speechlessly at this bro of his.

"What the f*ck are we still waiting outside for, let's go in."

Huizhong began feeling hastiness.

…..

"Boss, boss. The boy that won $10,000 yesterday is here again today," the lean man that came to report Li Yu's winning could be seen rushing to blacky's office.

Blacky later called the lean man to apologize for how he reacted against him yesterday, which was the order given by his boss.

He also gave the lean man a reward and promotion due to him knowing the right and necessary thing to report.

Blacky then assigned the lean man a mission which is to always report immediately if Li Yu was sighted in the casino shop.

The lean man still felt till this moment that he was dreaming.

Boss blacky apologized, gave a reward, and also promoted me.

Since that yesterday, he had been feeling like he was on top of the world.

Even the lean man's friends and colleagues had been kissing up his ass since then.

Even those that are always against him and always looked for troubles with him begin to fear, respect, and dodge him.

Apart from being scared easily, the lean man is certainly a sharp guy.

He immediately realized that the reason why he was receiving all these goodies was that he reported Li Yu's case to the bosses, he immediately began to focus on the entrance of the casino shop since then, in case Li Yu comes in.

At this moment, it was only blacky alone in the office, the big boss could not be found.

When Blacky who was busy calculating the profit they've made so far heard the excited words of the lean man that called himself He Ying, Blacky immediately dropped what he was doing and rushed up from his seat in excitement.

"Do you mean what you just said?!"

"Yes boss, I'm hundred percent sure. The boy and his fat friend just came in now which was why I come to report to you."

Blacky laughed happily when he heard this.

"Good, let's go there to see how great this man is, we've changed the roulette settings today, let's go see if he would still win or lose."

Although He Ying does not understand the reason why the boss and big boss were interested in someone who is causing losses for the betting shop, he does not care if that would mean his own goodies.

Blacky took a hat and put it only on his bald head then he wore a black shade on his face.

With that, Blacky had totally become a different person to the extent that if someone familiar with him was to see him now, they definitely will not be able to recognize him.

"Let's go."

….

When Li Yu and Huizhong entered the betting shop today, they were no longer fascinated by what they saw.

Li Yu and Huizhing first went to the roulette section to see if there is any luck in there for them.

All the people, including the dealer and guards that were on duty today, were totally different people, else the place would have immediately scattered once Li Yu was recognized.

Li Yu watched different spinning sessions with none that has anything close to coming to the green.

"As I thought," Li Yu was not disappointed at all.

"Let's go to the sports section," Li Yu said quietly to Huizhong.

"Oh, bro, are you sure we would not be winning anything from this roulette today."

Huizhong felt that as long as his brother wished to place a bet, they would definitely win, so he felt sorry when he thought they would not be winning any big chunk from here.

"More like lose anything from this roulette," Li Yu replied sarcastically and turned to leave.

The sports section was a huge hall on its own with huge big screened and small screened television in form of boxes placed almost everywhere one would look at.

"F*ck, this club has a loss already!"

Huizhong commented, looking at a screen that was broadcasting a football match.

Few people were surrounding the television at the moment.

Some had already begun to jubilate about winning the match while others had already lost all hope.

The football match that was being played was an international match that everybody had been anticipating for a long time now.

The two clubs that were currently playing were like lions.

Most of the people had thought the match would likely end up in a draw or one club would win against the other with at most 1 score.

But what is being played now has contradicted everyone's thoughts.

The club that was in the away position was currently beating the club that was in the home position back to back.

At eighty minutes, the away club had already scored 4 goals against 1 which had totally changed everyone's thoughts and perspectives concerning football.

The computer that compute and set the bet odds had even deemed the home team to have lost now, it had given the home team one thousand odds.

And according to football betting, teams that have a higher chance of winning will always have lower odds while otherwise for those with a lower chance of winning.

So everybody and everything had deemed the home party to have lost.

But what Li Yu with winning memories, especially on bets saw at this moment was different, Li Yu saw that the home team would be beating the away team with 6 against 4 goals at the end of this match.

"Damn!!! I need to contradict everyone again this time around."

Li Yu dragged Huizhong's hand and rushed to the dealer that sat before the computer system.

"Please I would like to place a straight winning bet for that team."

The dealer, a young man who was also focused on watching the match immediately looked at Li Yu with concealed anger when he distracted him.

He thought Li Yu was one of those who had come to try his luck after the match had finished. "He is likely to win less than 1 times his stake," the boy thought.

"What score would you like to bet on?"

"I would like to bet on the home team for winning 6 against 4 with the opposite team."

"Okay, you would- wait. I think you've made a mistake."

The young man who was about to enter the data Li Yu mentioned suddenly stopped.

"No, no. I'm not mistaken, I said I want to beg 6 scores for the home team and 4 scores for the away team."

Silence....
