Hong Kong variety show: Hung Hing, are you contributing to society?

"Sister Ling, don't misunderstand, I'm not asking you for money..." Lin Yaodong quickly waved his hand, as if he had seen through her thoughts, his eyes showing some panic.

This is normal thinking.

You won so much money, and you were betting with me, so isn't it normal for you to share some with me?

But Lin Yaodong wouldn't care about such a small gain.

His eyes suddenly dimmed, as if he had remembered something painful, and his voice became low and slightly hoarse:

"My parents passed away when I was very young. Before my mother died, she held my hand and said that our family must have had too little good fortune in our past life, which is why we have suffered so much in this life..."

She told me that if I have the chance in the future, I must accumulate more good karma…

"You're an orphan?" Ma Ling was somewhat surprised. The greed and calculation in her eyes were replaced by a hint of tenderness, and the hand around his neck loosened a little.

"Hmm..." Lin Yaodong nodded, his eyelashes drooping, casting a shadow under his eyelids, making him look somewhat lonely and pitiful.

His profile looked particularly fragile under the light, like a fragile piece of porcelain.

With acting skills like that, she'd definitely win an Oscar.

He paused, as if gathering his courage, and said cautiously in a tentative tone, "Sister Ling, could you donate some of the money you won? To accumulate good karma. That way, Sister Ling will have more blessings and good fortune for the rest of her life, and live a peaceful and safe life..."

Ma Ling was stunned.

She stared intently into Lin Yaodong's eyes, which were clean and clear, filled with expectation, unease, and a hint of trepidation, as if she were genuinely worried about the future of a "sister" she had only known for less than half an hour.

His gaze was so sincere, so sincere, that it touched a soft spot in her heart.

The alluring smile on her face gradually faded, replaced by sincerity, and her eyes held a complex mix of emotions that were hard to define.

Having navigated the political, business, and gambling worlds for so many years, she had seen countless people—greedy, lecherous, hypocritical, and treacherous—but she had never seen anyone like this—

They push away the wealth and status they have already gained.

"Hmm..." she responded softly, then a smile returned to her lips.

This time, the smile was less worldly and more genuine, and the corners of her eyes and brows softened: "Okay."

A strong woman... Hah~~ She's still easily controlled by me.... Lin Yaodong chuckled inwardly, but on his face, he showed a look of surprise, as if he had received some great blessing.

He stood up, turned around, and gently hugged Ma Ling—the movement was just right, neither too intimate and frivolous, nor too sincere and grateful.

His arm encircled her waist, and through the thin fabric, he could feel the softness of her slender waist.

"Really? Thank you, Sister Ling~~" His voice was filled with youthful excitement as he nestled in her shoulder, his breath warm.

When Ma Ling was hugged by him, her body stiffened slightly, but she relaxed and patted his back. Her smile held a tenderness that she herself did not realize.

She gently patted his back, as if comforting a wronged child.

The surrounding crowd watched this scene with a mix of emotions: some envied, some jealous, some scoffed, and some seemed thoughtful.

But regardless, at this moment, the two of them seemed to have a different meaning in each other's eyes.

At the edge of the crowd in the distance, Xiao Fu stood quietly next to a slot machine, his gaze passing through the crowd and landing on Lin Yaodong.

He originally planned to keep a distance and continue to watch over Dong Ge, fulfilling his mission of protecting him.

After all, in an unfamiliar place, someone always needs to keep an eye on the surrounding safety.

Who knew... he would actually witness Lin Yaodong pretending to be a teenager.

Brother Dong, who wielded immense power in Hong Kong and struck fear into the hearts of countless triad bosses...

That Dong Ge, who kills without shedding blood, who used to send people to their deaths in the East China Sea, deciding their fates with a mere flick of his wrist...

That Dong Ge, always calm, always composed, always in control...

He was being held by a hot woman, a shy, boyish smile on his face, and he was... was he... being affectionate?

Xiao Fu, whose face had been expressionless the whole time, was now dumbfounded, his mouth slightly agape and his eyes almost popping out.

Is this... still Dong Ge...?

Let's go back to Lin Yaodong's side.

Because someone got a triple, the Sic Bo table was surrounded by onlookers, some just watching the spectacle, and others hoping to try their luck.

Many people who enjoy gambling like to follow the lucky ones and blindly bet along with those who are having good fortune.

In an instant, the crowd surged, and the air became murky with a mixture of perfumes, cigarette smoke, and alcohol.

When there are too many people, it gets a bit stuffy.

Various gazes swept over me, making me feel uncomfortable.

Lin Yaodong frowned slightly, and Ma Ling in his arms glanced at the people who were crowding forward, also showing a look of disgust.

The men's gazes were disgusting, as if they wanted to strip her naked.

"Sister Ling, there are too many people, let's go," Lin Yaodong said.

Ma Ling was surprised that Lin Yaodong had the same idea as her, and immediately replied, "Okay."

Because someone won a lot of money, a crowd gathered, so the manager in charge of the gambling hall also came.

A middle-aged man in a suit with slicked-back hair strode over with a professional smile on his face.

"So it's Miss Ma who's here." Manager Zhao greeted Ma Ling respectfully.

The Ma family is one of the four major families, and they have a lot of influence in various places in New Zealand and Australia. They frequently visit major casinos, so he naturally recognizes them.

"You've come at the perfect time." Ma Ling pointed to his more than 30 million chips on the table and said, "Exchange them all and transfer them to my account."

"Okay." Manager Zhao nodded and beckoned a waiter to handle the matter.

After Ma Ling finished speaking, she pulled Lin Yaodong away, her high heels clicking crisply on the floor, without looking back.

Lin Yaodong managed to get his 60,000 yuan chips. The original 200 yuan had turned into 60,000 yuan, so he made a small profit.

"Where are we going?" Lin Yaodong asked, letting her pull him through the crowd.

"Sister Ling will take you to have fun~~ This must be your first time in New Zealand and Australia, right?" Ma Ling seemed a little impatient to leave, her steps light and quick.

Um... she's not planning to sleep with me right away, is she...? Lin Yaodong had a premonition, watching her back as he mentally planned what would happen next.

We arrived at the redemption counter at the entrance.

He grabbed Ma Ling, "Wait."

Then he exchanged the six 10,000 chips in his hand for 60,000 Australian dollars, a thick stack, and put it in his pocket.

He turned to Ma Ling and said, "It's my treat tonight."

He flashed a bright, genuine smile.

"Hehe~~~" Ma Ling was amused by Lin Yaodong's feigned 'innocence,' covering her mouth and her eyes sparkling: "Okay~~"

The two walked out of the casino hall hand in hand.
