Beachcombing: The beach is full of amazing seafood, but my wife won't let me get out of bed!

Chapter 18 Anyone who tries to lure me into gambling, I'll chop them up with a knife.

This is the person!

In his previous life, after Chen Xue and Ya Ya died tragically, Wu Sui was utterly despondent and spent his days drunk.

It was this Feng Shengli who came to my door, spouting nonsense, saying he would take me to the south to make a lot of money, and that I could return home in glory after just six months.

At that time, Wu Sui had no will to live and got into the car with him in a daze.

As a result, he got drunk halfway through the journey, and when he woke up, he was already on a bread truck at the border.

He was sold by Feng Shengli to a fraud park in northern Myanmar for 50,000 yuan!

There, Wu Sui experienced a hellish life.

He was treated like a pig and locked in a water dungeon. The slightest mistake would result in a brutal beating. He still remembers the burnt smell of the electric baton hitting his body clearly.

Finally, Wu Sui was drained of blood and had his kidneys ripped off because he failed to meet his performance targets. He was then thrown into a mass grave like a dead dog.

Those dark, miserable days were all thanks to this bastard in front of me!

Wu Sui took a deep breath, his chest heaving with intense emotions.

He forcibly suppressed the murderous intent surging in his heart.

"Oh, eating?"

Feng Shengli exhaled a smoke ring, swaggered to the table, and pulled over a small stool to sit down.

His triangular eyes swept over the braised pork and chicken pieces on the table, and he swallowed hard.

Finally, his gaze landed unabashedly on Chen Xue, scrutinizing her from head to toe.

"I haven't seen you for months, and your figure has become even more radiant."

Feng Shengli grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and his smile was lewd.

Chen Xue's face turned pale. She stood up, pulled Ya Ya into her arms, and shielded her behind her, her body involuntarily retreating backward.

She was terrified of these people. Whenever Wu Sui hung out with them before, she would beat or scold them when she came back.

Wu Sui stood up and stood in front of Chen Xue, blocking Feng Shengli's disgusting gaze.

"What are you doing here?" Wu Sui asked in a flat, emotionless tone.

Feng Shengli was completely unaware of the cold glint in Wu Sui's eyes.

He leaned closer, lowered his voice, and raised his eyebrows mysteriously.

"Brother Sui, I heard you've struck it rich these past few days?" Feng Shengli flicked his cigarette ash. "You bought meat and chicken today, living the good life."

Wu Sui didn't respond, and just watched him perform quietly.

Seeing that Wu Sui remained silent, Feng Shengli assumed that he was interested and continued to embellish the story.

"A new brothel opened on East Street in town. The boss is a big shot from the city. It's huge, and the girls are hot."

Feng Shengli winked at Wu Sui.

"There's a big event going on tonight. Since you have some capital, I'll take you over to play a few rounds."

"With your luck, multiplying your money several times over in one night is definitely not a problem!"

"How about it? Let's all make money together."

As he spoke, he reached out to pat Wu Sui on the shoulder.

Wu Sui slightly shifted her shoulder, avoiding his hand.

He turned to look at Chen Xue, who was hiding behind him. Chen Xue was looking at him with a face full of fear and pleading in her eyes, as if she was afraid that he would nod and agree.

Wu Sui turned around, looked at Feng Shengli's disgusting face, and suddenly laughed.

He was laughing very happily.

"Okay." Wu Sui nodded. "I was just worried about where to go tonight."

Feng Shengli's eyes lit up, and he slapped his thigh: "That's right! I knew Brother Sui was a straightforward person. Shall we go now?"

"Wait a minute, I'm going inside to get something."

Wu Sui turned around and strode towards the kitchen.

Chen Xue panicked, and tears welled up in her eyes. She rushed forward to try and grab Wu Sui.

"Ah Sui, you promised me just now..."

Wu Sui patted Chen Xue's hand, gave her a reassuring look, and gestured for her to step back.

Wu Sui came out of the kitchen.

Instead of carrying money, he carried a kitchen knife and walked step by step toward Feng Shengli.

"What...what are you doing?" Feng Shengli's smile froze, and he retreated in fright.

Wu Sui walked up to Feng Shengli, looking down at him, and rhythmically tapped the back of his knife against the palm of his other hand.

"You just said you'd take me somewhere to make big money?"

"Come on, speak louder, tell me."

Feng Shengli stared at the gleaming kitchen knife, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

"Brother Sui... don't scare your brother, here's a knife..."

He forced a smile and backed away step by step.

Wu Sui didn't say anything, but kept walking and stood in front of Feng Shengli.

Feng Shengli shrank back, his back hitting the earthen wall, with nowhere left to retreat.

"I'm asking you, where are you going to make big money?" Wu Sui flipped the cleaver in his hand and slapped the back of the blade against Feng Shengli's cheek.

"Go...go to the new place on East Street..." Feng Shengli's voice trembled, his hands raised in front of his chest, wanting to push but not daring to.

With a flick of his wrist, Wu Sui sent the cleaver sliding down Feng Shengli's cheek and stopping at his carotid artery.

"The places on East Street are ruthless and vicious; you want me to go there?"

"I...I meant well..."

"Kindness?" Wu Sui raised his hand, and with a swift motion, the knife fell.

"Knock!"

The cleaver was whittled into the earthen wall behind Feng Shengli, close to his ear.

Feng Shengli let out a howl, his legs went weak, and he slumped to the ground against the wall, a large wet patch appearing in his crotch.

Wu Sui frowned in disgust.

"Feng Shengli, you better listen carefully."

He crouched down, grabbed Feng Shengli by the collar of his floral shirt, and lifted him up by force.

"That scoundrel Wu Sui from before is dead. The current Wu Sui has a wife and children and just wants to live a peaceful and law-abiding life."

Wu Sui patted Feng Shengli's pale face.

"From now on, you, and any of your cronies, if you dare to step into my yard again..."

Wu Sui pulled the kitchen knife out and waved it in front of Feng Shengli.

"See it once, chop it off once, understand?"

Feng Shengli nodded frantically like a chicken pecking at rice, his face covered in tears and snot.

"Ming...I understand, Brother Sui, I'll never do it again!"

"Get out!" Wu Sui released his grip.

Feng Shengli scrambled out of the courtyard gate, not even bothering to pick up his slippers that had fallen to the ground, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The courtyard fell silent.

Wu Sui put the kitchen knife back in the kitchen, his eyes filled with malice. He wouldn't let Feng Shengli off so easily.

Chen Xue remained in the position of protecting Ya Ya, staring blankly at Wu Sui.

Wu Sui walked over and washed his hands in the basin.

"It's alright now."

Chen Xue could no longer hold back. She let go of Ya Ya, buried her face in Wu Sui's arms, and burst into tears.

"I thought... I thought you were going to go with them again..."

She clutched Wu Sui's clothes, sobbing uncontrollably.

Wu Sui patted her back, letting her vent.

"No, never again," he coaxed softly. "I told you, if anyone tries to get me to gamble, I'll chop them up with a knife."

Ya Ya ran over and hugged Wu Sui's leg: "Daddy, don't leave! Daddy, beat the bad guys!"

Wu Sui picked up his daughter and kissed her on the cheek.

"Daddy won't leave, Daddy will stay with Yaya."

The meal was thrilling, but it also put Chen Xue at ease.

She could clearly feel that Wu Sui had changed.

It wasn't an act; it was a change that came from within.

At night, the family of three squeezed into the small bed.

Chen Xue leaned closer to Wu Sui.

Wu Sui took the opportunity to hug her. Neither of them spoke, but their heartbeats were very close.
