The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 219: Chapter 118: The Mother Who Favors Sons Over Daughters (Part 5)_2

Two men were muscle, meant to prevent any situation or accident during the deception.

”Big sister, don’t be fooled by my two burly nephews, they are actually simpletons. They look fierce but their hearts are soft!”

Fat Aunt was very alert and quickly noticed He Tiantian’s gaze.

Of course, He Tiantian didn’t hide it because she had other plans.

”Oh, I, I think the two brothers are also pretty good.”

He Tiantian smiled pretentiously, ”Besides, we’re going to Shenzhen, and just being on the train will take two days and nights. It’s best to have a strong young man as company in case we meet a bad guy!”

”Yes, yes, yes, I was just worried about something happening on the road, that’s why I brought these two nephews.”

”This is my niece-in-law, ah, it’s not easy to get a wife in the countryside. My older nephew is married, and the younger nephew still can’t afford the bride price. So, I brought them out to make a fortune in Shenzhen together!”

Fat Aunt didn’t utter a single truth; her lies flowed freely.

The so-called ”niece-in-law” also hurried over to get cozy.

However, the two ”nephews,” perhaps out of boredom, somehow produced a few dice and began to shake them in their hands.

At first, they were just playing for fun, and the loser had to give a cigarette.

But as they played, their gambling addiction began to emerge.

In front of them, they started using cigarette packs to press down paper money.

Passengers waiting around also gathered to join the excitement.

Seeing some winning money ignited a few to take out one and a half yuan to place their bets.

He Tiantian’s eyes flashed as she also joined in.

Fat Aunt’s peripheral vision never left He Tiantian, and upon noticing her slight movements, Fat Aunt coughed lightly.

The two robust men playing dice, hearing the hint, exchanged a glance.

”Big sister, do you want to play a couple of rounds?”

One of them, sporting a Guo Fucheng hairstyle, squeezed out a smile, greeting He Tiantian.

”In my home, I’ve played this too!” He Tiantian purposely acted as if she was somewhat tempted but still hesitated to join.

”Then let’s play together.” Although he was certain that He Tiantian was an easy mark and her money would eventually be theirs,

but winning money was absolutely a different concept than stealing money.

The former was more satisfying.

”Then, then shall I join?” He Tiantian sounded hesitant, but her actions were quick.

She pushed through the crowd and sat across from the dice shaker.

”Big sister, what’s your stake? We don’t play big, just ten yuan a round!”

The man with the Guo Fucheng hairstyle said cheerily.

He Tiantian painfully pulled out a handkerchief, took out ten yuan from inside, and carefully placed it in front of her.

Then—

Ma Jiu’s gambling skills were truly amazing!

In a little over an hour, He Tiantian managed to win over 150 yuan just by simply playing dice for ten yuan a round.

The faces of the two strong men darkened, and the onlookers were also staring in disbelief.

This, this was not some stingy country woman, she was like Runfa from Gambling God.

He Tiantian knew it was about time, as their betting had already caught the attention of the waiting hall’s security staff, and if the noise continued, the police might come to break up the gambling.

He Tiantian wrapped up the 150 yuan with her handkerchief and stuffed it into her pants pocket.

”Xiaoya, do you need to pee?”

He Tiantian seemed to remember only then that she had a child with her, asking Zhao Xiaoya.

Zhao Xiaoya: ...

From the time they arrived at the train station, Zhao Xiaoya had been in a daze.

Zhao Xiaoya, who had never seen so many people before, was scared.

Additionally, her real mother’s behavior also felt unfamiliar to Zhao Xiaoya.

She had a mysterious feeling, as if everything was like a dream.

Then, Fat Aunt came closer again, and Zhao Xiaoya, timid and shy in front of strangers, dared not speak.

She clung tightly to the hem of her real mother’s clothes, head down, silent.

When He Tiantian went to gamble, Zhao Xiaoya’s heart pounded uncontrollably, although she didn’t know why, she just inexplicably felt anxious.

It took a while, but her real mother finally stopped gambling and finally remembered her existence.

Zhao Xiaoya quickly lifted her head, cautiously watching her real mother.

However, she saw her real mother winking at her.

Zhao Xiaoya’s heart stirred, and following her real mother’s cue, she said in a tiny, mosquitolike voice, ”Mom, I, I need to pee! I can’t hold it anymore!”
