Underworld Chronicles: Qiao Si's Strategist, Xiao Ke, and Wang Weifan
Chapter 49 One More Gamble
Just as Xiao Ke was getting impatient, Deputy Director Song sent him a letter, asking him to pick up the person the next day.
This made Xiao Ke very happy. The next morning, Xiao Ke went to the nearby grocery store, where Su Xiaolin happened to be.
"Comrade Su, let's go pick up your brother. We don't know him," Xiao Ke said.
"You really rescued my son! Wow, wow!" Old Man Su exclaimed excitedly.
"Uncle, the high walls won't let the old man go there. You can wait at home, Comrade Su. Let's go," Xiao Ke said again.
"Xiaolin, hurry up and go with them to bring your brother back! Hurry!" Old Man Su said anxiously.
Su Xiaolin had no choice but to bite the bullet and go out with Xiao Ke.
Xiao Ke and his three musketeers rode three cool motorcycles. Wang Zhi carried Zhang Guangyue, Wei Qinggang was far away, and Su Xiaolin could only sit on Xiao Ke's motorcycle.
As soon as Su Xiaolin got on the motorcycle, Xiao Ke instantly felt a wave of fragrant heat wash over him from behind.
Xiao Ke twisted the throttle, and as soon as the motorcycle moved forward, he slammed on the gas pedal. The motorcycle lurched, and Su Xiaolin leaned forward, falling onto Xiao Ke's back.
Xiao Ke felt a heat on his back, as if he had been squeezed by two water-filled balloons. He felt a jolt of electricity throughout his body and, as if he had been injected with adrenaline, he slammed on the gas pedal. The motorcycle shot off in a flash, almost throwing Su Xiaolin to the ground.
Having no other choice, Su Xiaolin could only wrap her arms around Xiao Ke's waist. This made Xiao Ke so happy that he excitedly sped all the way to the gate of the high wall.
Meanwhile, Su Xiaoxu, who was behind bars, had been living in a dream for the past two days. He was suddenly called out for a checkup, even though he was perfectly healthy. The doctor insisted that he had diabetes and heart disease.
Today, the guard suddenly asked him to sign something again, saying that he was in poor health and could be released on medical parole. He said he could leave as soon as he signed the document.
Even when Su Xiaoxu was taken to the gate and the guards returned all his clothes, he still felt like he was dreaming.
Su Xiaoxu raised his hand and slapped himself twice hard across the face. His cheeks burned with pain. "Damn it, am I dreaming? I still have several years left in prison, and I'm being released like this?"
When Su Xiaoxu walked out of the high wall and saw his sister, he suddenly realized that it was his sister who had saved him.
Without a second thought, Su Xiaoxu dropped her bag and rushed into Su Xiaolin's arms. "Sister, it was you who saved me! I'm finally free!"
As Su Xiaoxu spoke, tears welled up in his eyes. "Don't cry, you're a grown man, why are you crying? There are other people here, don't let them laugh at you," Su Xiaolin said to her younger brother.
Hearing her sister's words, Su Xiaoxu wiped away her tears before noticing Xiao Ke and the others.
"Sister, who are these people?" Su Xiaoxu asked.
"Brother, this is your brother-in-law, he's the one who saved you," Zhang Guangyue said loudly, pointing at Xiao Ke.
Su Xiaoxu looked at Xiao Ke and asked Su Xiaolin with a puzzled expression, "Sister, when did you get married? Why didn't you tell me?"
"Don't listen to his nonsense, I'm not married yet," Su Xiaolin said, glaring at Zhang Guangyue.
"Hey, I heard about your agreement from my older brother. What, now that the person has been rescued, you want to go back on your word?" Zhang Guangyue said, glaring at him.
Who said I'm denying it? We weren't married in the first place. Did I say something wrong?
"Alright, alright, stop standing here at the door, let's talk about it when we get back." Xiao Ke said, getting on his motorcycle.
"Hey bro, you're riding that motorcycle." Xiao Ke said, pointing to the motorcycle Wei Qinggang was riding.
Su Xiaoxu got on Wei Qinggang's motorcycle, while Su Xiaolin got on Xiao Ke's motorcycle.
Xiao Ke, being mischievous, deliberately jerked the car on, causing Su Xiaolin to repeatedly sway against his back. Ah, how beautiful! How smooth! How soft!
Xiao Ke and his friends made their way back to Old Man Su's general store in style, where Old Man Su was already waiting at the door.
When he saw that his son had really returned, his wrinkled old face instantly broke into a wide smile. As soon as Su Xiaoxu got out of the car, he threw himself into his father's arms, crying, "Dad!"
With tears streaming down his face, Old Man Su patted his son's shoulder. "Son, you're finally back! You're finally back!"
Xiao Ke and the others were quite moved to see the father and son reunited. It's true that blood is thicker than water. No matter what, family is always the closest and the people who care about each other the most.
"Go back inside, go back inside," Old Man Su said, wiping away his tears.
"You guys go back and look after the business," Xiao Ke said to Wang Zhi and the others, before following Su Xiaolin and the others into the general store.
"Why are you coming to my house if you're not going back?" Su Xiaolin stopped Xiao Ke.
I... Xiao Ke didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Xiaolin, let this young man into the house. He's a great benefactor to our family," said Old Man Su.
"Yeah, sis, isn't he my brother-in-law? Why won't you let him into our house?" Su Xiaoxu interjected.
Hearing her father and brother say this, Su Xiaolin couldn't stop them anymore and could only let Xiao Ke follow her into the house.
"Comrade Su, we can't go back on our word, can we? You said you'd marry me if I got your brother out of the house," Xiao Ke whispered in Su Xiaolin's ear.
I said I'd marry you, but I didn't say when. You'll have to wait and see. Su Xiaolin said as she ran into the house.
When Su Xiaoxu heard that Xiao Ke was the owner of the casino next door, she liked him even more. Such a person was definitely good enough to be her brother-in-law.
Before Su Xiaoxu went in, he was a gambling addict. He knew all too well that running a casino was a lucrative business that made a fortune every day, and that people with connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds were definitely not ordinary people. With such a person as his brother-in-law, Su Xiaoxu wouldn't have to worry about the rest of his life.
"Dad, what's going on between my sister and my savior?" Su Xiaoxu asked, puzzled, as her sister ran into the house.
Old Man Su then told Su Xiaolin about the bet between Xiao Ke and Su Xiaolin. After listening, Su Xiaoxu said, "Dad, our Su family are people of integrity. We are all people who accept the consequences of our bets. My sister can't go back on her word."
"Sigh, yes, our Su family has always been known for its integrity. This young man seems quite good, but he runs a casino, so your sister definitely won't want to marry him," Old Man Su said.
"Dad, only those who run casinos have real skills. How much money do you earn at your job? It's not even enough for them to win or lose in one go. Where's my sister? Sister, come out here!" Su Xiaoxu shouted.
Upon hearing the conversation between the father and son, Xiao Ke understood what was going on. Wasn't this a good thing? Both father and son had agreed, so what could Su Xiaolin say?
"What are you shouting for? What are you shouting for?" Su Xiaolin was forced to speak by her younger brother.
Sister, they rescued me, we can't deny it.
"I didn't say I wouldn't admit it. Aren't you the one who runs a casino? Let's gamble again. Do you dare? If I lose, without hesitation, we'll pick a date and get married right away. How about that?" Su Xiaolin suddenly said to Xiao Ke.
"What's there to be afraid of? Tell me, how do you want to bet?" Xiao Ke wanted to laugh to himself. "You want to bet with me? Isn't that like obediently throwing yourself into my arms?"
Next, how will Su Xiaolin and Xiao Ke make their bet? Will Xiao Ke win? Stay tuned for the next episode.
