Zhou Andong nodded: "Very likely!"

Gu Bing laughed: "Haven't you noticed these past few days? Song Mao is always hovering around Guan Tingya, that diligent energy is more dedicated than serving his own parents."

Xiao Liuzi shook his head slightly: "If Little Mao really wants to pursue Xiaoya, there's no chance."

Suddenly, screams and cheers came from outside, followed by a dull thud, the sound was very loud.

"Sigh!"

Zhou Andong sighed: "Originally I was thinking of doing a good deed, to see if I could persuade the person down. Now there's no need to go out, the person has already jumped down."

The three of them were not interested in watching such things, but sat down in the lobby's rest area.

Soon, Guan Tingya, Zheng Xiyan, and Song Mao returned, and when they saw them, they began to describe it vividly.

Zhou Andong took out a cigarette and lit it: "In ten bets, nine lose. The ones who win money are always the casinos, not the gamblers. But there are always some people who fantasize about getting rich overnight. Even if some people are lucky and win money, greed makes them crazy, and in the end, they lose everything, including their own lives.

The best state in life is not fame and fortune, not having a fortune, but knowing when to stop. Human greed has no end; after getting some, they always want more.

In the big world, with all kinds of temptations, you must learn to stop when appropriate so that you won't lose your direction. Flowers half-bloomed, liquor slightly tipsy, those who know how to stop when appropriate and can use it freely are the winners in life."

Speaking of this, he looked at Guan Tingya: "I think in this regard, Xiaoya does very well. She loves to play, but can control her desires very well, which is something many people can't compare to."

Hearing Zhou Andong praise her, Guan Tingya's face blossomed with a smile: "Let's go, let's go, let's go inside the casino and stroll around."

The casino was very large, and Guan Tingya bought US dollar chips for everyone.

Several people were familiarizing themselves with the environment while watching the excitement. Zhou Andong had only seen various gambling tools in Xiangjiang movies before, this was his first real contact.

Unknowingly, it was evening, and this was the beginning of being drunk with dreams. In front of the gambling tables, people with different expressions sat around, some calm, some with flushed faces, some triumphant, some crying bitterly, which could be described as all states of life.

None of them understood, and in the end, they all followed Guan Tingya to play the slot machines.

I don't know where Zhou Andong got his luck, he won several hundred. But Gu Bing and the others lost, and several people acted as if they had discussed it, attacking at the same time, pressing Zhou Andong there, and snatching all the money away.

"Not playing anymore!" Zhou Andong cursed and stood up, "Go back to the room to sleep."

Guan Tingya said with a giggle: "I'm not playing anymore either, I haven't eaten dinner yet, Brother Dong, let's go eat first."

Zhou Andong said without thinking: "Right, I'm full of anger, I can't let my stomach go hungry again."

Gu Bing stretched, stuffed a handful of change into his pocket: "Play again tomorrow, let's go out to eat."

As he spoke, he looked at Zhou Andong, as if he had just discovered Zhou Andong's dark face, and said very surprisingly: "Yo yo yo, I say Factory Director Zhou, what's wrong with you, who made you angry again?"

Zhou Andong said: "A few little dogs, snatched my money away."

"You're the little dog." Guan Tingya said coquettishly, and hit Zhou Andong.

"Exactly, you're the little dog!" Zheng Xiyan also rolled her eyes at Zhou Andong.

Zhou Andong laughed: "You guys are the little dogs." After finishing, he ran away.

Guan Tingya waved her little fist: "Beat him!"

"Beat him!" Zheng Xiyan and Guan Tingya laughed and chased after him.

Gu Bing also said on a whim: "Chase, beat Zhou Andong into a dog's head for me."

Several people were like children, fighting and making noise as they left the hotel, attracting side-eyes from many people along the way.

For the next two days, Zhou Andong and the others went to the Venetian and Wynn Palace. Actually, except for the size, casinos were all about the same.

The third day, which was September 4, 1992, the eighth day of the eighth lunar month, Star...

Zhou Andong woke Gu Bing and the others up early: "Lin Guosheng is a gambler. Once he arrives in Xiangjiang, he will definitely look for an opportunity to come to Macau to gamble. According to my analysis, if he doesn't come today, he will definitely arrive tomorrow.

So, today we have to act separately, guard at the entrances of the three casinos, two people in a group. Even if eating or going to the toilet, only one person can go, and the other person must stay."

Guan Tingya said: "Sixth Brother and Yanzi in a group, Little Mao in a group, I'm in a group with Brother Dong."

Song Mao didn't agree: "Isn't it just right to be in a group with Brother Dong?"

"You don't know shit!" Guan Tingya glared: "My memory is bad, I've already forgotten what that person looks like. If you didn't remember either, and let the person pass, what should we do if we delay things?"

Song Mao really wanted to say I remember, but seeing Guan Tingya's eyes glaring at him, he didn't dare to speak, just muttered something.

"Hmph!" Guan Tingya said: "That's decided."

Zheng Xiyan looked at her cousin Guan Tingya, her brows frowned slightly, and the expression on her face became somewhat unclear.

After breakfast, the six people were divided into three groups. Zhou Andong and Guan Tingya stayed at the Lisboa Hotel, Gu Bing and Song Mao went to the Venetian, and Xiao Liuzi and Yanzi went to the Wynn Palace.

Walking a distance, Zheng Xiyan looked back at Zhou Andong and Guan Tingya standing at the entrance of the Lisboa Hotel.

"Sixth Brother!"

"What's the matter?" Zheng Xiyan said: "Why do I feel like that girl Xiaoya is a bit strange?"

Xiao Liuzi said: "How is she strange?"

Zheng Xiyan hesitated for a moment, and finally just shook her head: "Forget it, I hope I'm overthinking it."

Xiao Liuzi said with dissatisfaction: "Can you finish what you're saying? Don't leave it half-finished, this will make people hold back internal injuries."

Zheng Xiyan smiled lightly: "You wouldn't understand even if I told you, so I'd better not waste my saliva."

Xiao Liuzi glared at his sister. He was the type of person who didn't have a heart or lungs. Since Zheng Xiyan didn't say, he didn't ask anymore.

And at this time, Lin Guosheng, carrying Dong Mengshu from the Finance Bureau, boarded the passenger ship to Macau. More than two hours later, they appeared in front of the Lisboa Hotel entrance.

Zhou Andong smiled and nodded slightly at Lin Guosheng who was walking over.

Lin Guosheng nodded in response habitually. The moment he pushed the door and entered the hotel, he suddenly stopped, turned his head back to look, but the young man from just now had already disappeared.

"Boss, what's wrong?" Dong Mengshu asked.

Lin Guosheng shook his head and said: "Nothing, you go handle the check-in."

"Okay!" Dong Mengshu agreed and walked quickly toward the front desk.

Guan Tingya was sitting on the steps at the entrance, holding a lollipop in her hand, licking it one by one.

And Lin Guosheng's reaction was all in her eyes. Seeing Dong Mengshu go to handle the check-in procedures, she got up and followed.
