11. Act Eleven
When Yuan Ziwen arrived at the casino, Luo Qianjun was fighting in front of the Baijia music table in the dark, and she didn't even notice that she was standing behind her.
I haven't seen him for a day, he is a lot haggard, his face is full of delicate stubble, his eyes are bloodshot, and Yuan Ziwen's heart was suddenly pricked by a needle. It was at this moment that she realized for the first time that many things had become unrecognizable.
Luo Qianjun is already a man with a beard, and Su Lishang has also let go of her slim pride, they are no longer the teenagers and girls who squatted on the side of the road with themselves to sell pirated DVDs. I remember that Fang Xuan once wrote in the weekly notebook: I can imagine that there are three of you in the future, and I don't want to give up any of you. However, she herself was the first to leave.
"Damn, there's no mistake!" Luo Qianjun threw the playing cards on the table and turned around depressedly.
The moment he saw the original seed Wen, his eyes flashed with panic that could not be concealed.
"Seed Wen, why are you here?"
"I'll take you home." As he spoke, he reached for his sleeve.
"Wait a minute, I haven't lost yet."
"Look at the chips in your hand, do you still have to play?" Yuan Ziwen was angry for a while, and he didn't care that there were all gamblers around him, so he yelled angrily.
Luo Qianjun has been gambling since last night until now, buying a village to open a village, buying a free village, and every time he gambles, he will lose. But the more miserable he loses, the more he is like a bamboo, and he always thinks that he can turn things around in the next game and win them all. This is the psychology of gamblers, blindly believing that the time will work, and there will be no chance of survival.
A fat man wearing gold and silver beside him said impatiently: "Boy, if you don't bet, if you don't gamble, get out if you don't gamble, don't touch Lao Tzu's head here." ”
Luo Qianjun glared at him, then picked up the coat on the chair and stood up. As soon as his feet landed, he felt dizzy, and Yuan Ziwen hurriedly supported him.
"Let's go over there and get some rest." Yuan Ziwen took a glass of water from the hand of the waiter who passed by and handed it to him.
Luo Qianjun sat on the sofa for a while before his cheeks returned to blood, and he said, "I wanted to win some money, but I lost what I had left." ”
"What are your plans for the future?" Yuan Seed Wen asked in a low voice.
Luo Qianjun took out his cigarette, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about me, I am so young and strong, can I still starve to death on the street?" ”
"I mean you and Li Xiang."
Luo Qianjun's face stiffened, and even the smoke he inhaled became extremely bitter, and he shook his head, "I don't know." ”
Yuan Ziwen once thought that it was only a matter of time before Luo Qianjun chased Su Lisheng, and he spent his entire youth on this invincible girl. It's just that this feeling is too cheap and pale, and it is too weak in the face of cruel material reality.
Yuan Ziwen wanted to say a few words of comfort to him, but he couldn't find the right words.
At this moment, a familiar figure walked into her sight. The woman smiled like a flower, her eyes were like silk, and she was surrounded by a little boy who did not look to be more than twenty years old.
Yuan Ziwen had seen her in Bai Chen's coffee shop, and everyone called her Sister Weiwei.
"What's wrong?" Luo Qianjun noticed her abnormality.
"Let's go." Yuan Ziwen didn't want to stay for a moment, and pulled Luo Qianjun to rush out of the door.
Sister Wei Wei unexpectedly stopped her, "Hey, isn't this Bai Chen's little girlfriend?" ”
Yuan Ziwen's footsteps faltered, and she looked back at the woman.
Sister Wei Wei walked over with champagne and swaying flowers, smiling like a girlfriend who had been reunited for a long time, and said, "What a coincidence, why are you here?" ”
Yuan Ziwen didn't respond, she subconsciously clenched her fists.
"You're looking for Bai Chen?" Sister Weiwei raised her thin eyebrows.
"It's not."
"Ah, I almost forgot, you should have broken up, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed with me."
Sister Weiwei made a sudden realization, and couldn't help but sigh.
"I heard Bai Chen say, you seem to be afraid of getting married? Hey, it's not my sister who said you, it's good for young people to have dreams, but you also have to look at your own abilities. Women should still find a man who can rely on to marry and have children, otherwise in a few years, no one will want to post it upside down. ”
Yuan Zi looked at her quietly, it was this woman who took away her first boyfriend who had been with her for four years with a few words, and now she is showing off with a victorious attitude. If she is stepped on the top of her head like this and doesn't know how to fight back, then her original seed temperature will be considered in vain.
She showed a bright smile that was not inferior to Sister Weiwei, "Thank you for your advice, but even if I am no longer cared for, I will not shamelessly snatch other people's boyfriends." ”
"You seem to have misunderstood something, right? He took the initiative to come to me. You have been with him for so long, and you have not fulfilled your responsibilities as a girlfriend, Bai Chen is also a man no matter how you say it, have you ever thought about him? ”
Her words made Yuan Ziwen angry, and his teeth almost bit blood on his lips. Before she could get angry, Luo Qianjun yelled, "Shut the fuck!" ”
Sister Wei Wei completely ignored him, "Besides, Bai Chen is now starting his own business again, and he needs someone who has the ability to help him." What can you do for him? You can't even take care of yourself, if I were Bai Chen, I would never choose a woman like you! ”
Luo Qianjun was so angry that he couldn't wait to rush forward and tear apart this woman's arrogant face. But Yuan Ziwen stopped him, and she approached Sister Weiwei and looked at her with a look of pity.
"Do you think you're so proud right now, as if you can do anything? But I tell you, Bai Chen can leave me for money today, and he will definitely forget you tomorrow. It's not just him, it's every man around you, and if I'm an emotional loser, you're no better. ”
She glanced at the little boy with ulterior motives.
Sister Wei Wei was stunned for a moment, her pupils darkened, and her face became cold.
Although their argument was not loud, it attracted the surrounding gamblers. Sister Weiwei is a regular customer of this casino, and every time she comes, she brings a different man, all with red lips and white teeth, so many people know her.
Sister Weiwei clenched her arms and straightened her back, her high heels made her look slightly taller than the original seed Wen.
She said condescendingly: "You seem to be very unconvinced? Why don't you make a bet with me, and if you win, maybe I'll give you my boyfriend back. ”
"Neuropathy." Yuan Ziwen sneered.
"Are you scared? Or do you simply not have confidence in yourself? ”
A provocation that couldn't be more obvious.
Luo Qianjun pulled Yuan Ziwen's arm, "Let's go, don't be a bastard like Bai Chen." ”
The temperature of the original seeds did not move.
With the sound of hustle and bustle, hoarseness or exhaustion, everyone who steps into the casino is eager to win. Maybe it was just a small bet at the beginning, but when you win or lose, you lose your sense of proportion and lose your mind.
It's right to say that there are only two kinds of people in this world, winners and losers. And her original seed Wen has been losing for seven years. If she is willing to step out of here today, then she will be the laughing stock of Sister Weiwei for the rest of her life.
Yuan Ziwen raised his head and looked at him aggressively, "What do you want to bet on?" ”
"Can you play FiveCardStud?"
"Yes."
"Okay, then let's go into the VIP room and play." Sister Weiwei turned around with a smile, and the little boy hurriedly followed.
Luo Qianjun grabbed Yuan Ziwen's hand, his strength was amazing, his face was gloomy as water, "Ziwen, are you crazy?" You came to the casino to persuade me to leave, why did you gamble on it yourself? ”
Yuan Ziwen looked at him, and his voice was very soft, "An Jialu taught me gambling cards before, and I am still good at playing this." ”
It's that Anjia Road again, and Yuan Ziwen will be killed by this man sooner or later!
Yuan Ziwen resolutely withdrew her hand from his palm, and at this moment she was like a warrior rushing to the battlefield, with a stubborn and stubborn expression. Luo Qianjun knew that he couldn't stop her by saying anything.
Time and experience may have smoothed the edges and corners of the original seed temperature, but she can't pull out the hard thorns hidden under the soft appearance, and she is still the murderous little hedgehog after all. When someone punches her, she has to pay it back tenfold, even if she is scarred.
The VIP room is much more secluded than the outfield, with a long mahogany table on an embroidered carpet and a crystal chandelier overhead. Sister Wei Wei sat at one end of the long table, surrounded by Huaguang, and the corners of her red mouth curved, "The rules of the casino, you can't come down when you get to the table, it's too late for you to regret it now." ”
Yuan Seed calmed his mind and walked to the opposite side of her and sat down slowly.
The little boy sat on one side of the long table.
Sister Wei Wei turned her head to look at Luo Qianjun, "In order to show fairness, how about you also add to the gambling game?" If either of you wins, I'll count. ”
Luo Qianjun looked at Yuan Ziwen nervously, there was no trace of emotion on her face, and she was very calm.
He had no choice but to take a seat.
While the dealer put the colorful chips in front of everyone, Sister Weiwei said: "I will lend you these chips, don't take them away if you win."
The game begins.
