Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 24.2: The Prodigal Son (46)

Shao Dabao also didn’t expect that he would be praised by Dr. Lu for telling the truth.

 

Doctor Lu added: “Even if you didn’t do it intentionally, you still saved me and you are still a great hero.”

 

After hearing this, Shao Dabao’s heart began to wander again.

 

On the way back, he raised his head, as if he wanted to walk sideways.

 

Shao Yu stopped immediately and looked at him quietly.

 

Shao Dabao’s thoughts were wandering. After walking for a long time, he realized that there was no one to support him. He turned around, looked at Shao Yu, and asked, “Dad, aren’t you supporting the great hero?”

 

Shao Yu looked at him with a half-smile, and asked, “You accepted it very calmly.”

 

Shao Dabao was immediately proud and said: “Doctor Lu accepts my love, then I am a great hero.”

 

Shao Yu didn’t refute it. After all, it was a fact that Shao Dabao saved people, so he asked, “Does it feel good to be a hero?”

 

Shao Dabao thought about how he was surrounded by people in the medical hall, and nodded.

Shao Yu said again: “You have been a hero today. The merits and demerits are equal to each other, so I won’t care about you entering the house and stealing.”

 

Seeing Shao Dabao’s expression relaxed, Shao Yu asked again: “Since I won’t pursue him, you should tell me the truth.”

 

Shao Dabao didn’t know why, but his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

 

“Did you enter my room to steal money?” Shao Yu asked.

 

Shao Dabao shook his head quickly.

“You didn’t steal money. Did you still go in and clean the house for me? I didn’t see the broom.” Shao Yu said.

 

Shao Dabao knew that he could not hide it from Shao Yu, so he had no choice but to admit that he had gone in to steal money.

 

“What do you want to do after you steal the money?” Shao Yu asked again.

 

Shao Dabao’s mind went blank when he heard this, and he quickly thought: “I’m going to have a good meal in a restaurant.”

 

“What about after eating?” Shao Yu asked again.

Shao Dabao hesitated in his heart, not knowing whether to say it or not.

 

“Do you still want to gamble?” Shao Yu asked.

 

Shao Dabao seems to be thinking.

 

“It’s okay, answer according to your inner thoughts, I won’t hold grudges, and I won’t blame you.” Shao Yu said.

 

Still want to gamble?

Shao Dabao asked himself.

 

He thought of the hand that Zhang Meng had chopped off in the backyard of the casino, and his own finger Zhang Meng had chopped off. It seemed that the blood at that time, the pain at that time were floating in front of him.

 

He was forced to do corvee labor, where he suffered humiliation, and then drifted down the canal, begging behind Amao.

 

Those hard days were all caused by gambling.

 

He said in his heart that he didn’t want to gamble, but his hands were still itchy.

Shao Dabao finally said: “I don’t want to lose, but if I am successful in gambling like my father, I still want to gamble.”

 

Shao Dabao felt like he was guarding a treasure mountain, but because of Shao Yu’s lack of cooperation, he had been unable to obtain the treasure mountain’s wealth.

 

Shao Dabao expressed the sentiment of all ordinary people: “I really want to become rich.”

 

“Dad, I don’t want to live a poor life anymore. I want to get married and have a wife. I don’t want to live a life where I can’t even afford a piece of meat.”

 

Shao Dabao used to be at home, and the original body and Mrs. Wang were completely obedient to him, but the Shao family was really not rich. Shao Dabao wanted more than just this, he wanted to live a life of spending money like water.

 

Shao Yu looked at the person in front of him. Shao Dabao was selfish, lazy, greedy and cold-blooded. Such a person seemed to have no advantages at all.

 

He was able to develop such a temperament, not only because of his bad roots, but also because of the bottomless pampering of Mrs. Wang and the original body.

 

Shao Yu shook his head and said, “I won’t teach you.”

 

Shao Dabao’s face darkened. He had obviously expected this result.

 

Shao Yu added: “There are thousands of ways to make money in the world, why do you have to be obsessed with gambling.”

 

Shao Dabao whispered: “I don’t know anything.”

 

“When you recover from your injury, I will teach you how to make money.” Shao Yu said.

 

When Shao Dabao heard this, his eyes immediately lit up and he asked, “How to earn it?”

 

“A gentleman loves money in a proper way. I can teach you how to make money seriously. If you dare to do something wrong and let me find you reaching out randomly, I won’t be polite.” Shao Yu felt that it was not enough to keep pressing this person, and he had to give him some sweetness.

 

Shao Dabao nodded frantically.

 

After returning home, Amao and Shao Xiaocao saw that there was an extra wound on his body after going out, so they asked.

 

After learning that Shao Dabao had acted bravely, the two of them praised Shao Dabao.

 

Shao Dabao was praised very much in the medical clinic. When he returned home, he could hear the praises of these two people, and he felt more and more comfortable. This feeling of joy almost made him forget the pain caused by the wound.

 

Shao Dabao was very honest with his family members and said, “Actually, dad pushed me because he didn’t think it was too dangerous. My intention was not to save him.”

 

Shao Yu smiled and said, “To be honest, it’s your credit.”

 

After speaking, he drew a stroke on the board under Shao Dabao’s gaze.

 

After more than ten days, Shao Dabao’s wound was finally healed, and he came to Shao Yu impatiently: “Dad, can you please agree.”

 

Shao Yu nodded and asked, “Have you finished the work at home today?”

 

While Shao Dabao was recuperating from his injuries, he never stopped for a bite of meat and did whatever he could. All of this seemed to be a habit deep in his bones.

 

“Now that it’s all done, we can get started.”

 

Under Shao Dabao’s expectant gaze, Shao Yu took out a small cargo box.

 

This small cargo box is the kind that formal salesmen carry around the streets.

 

“That’s it? What about making a lot of money as promised?” Shao Dabao was immediately dissatisfied.
