Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 5.2: The Prodigal Son (11)

 

Although Wang was not smart enough, Shao Yu made it so clearly that she immediately understood the gist. Even if she wanted to help her son, she could not bear the risk of turning against her son.

 

Finally, Mrs. Wang’s eyes flickered and she said, “Mom doesn’t understand anything and doesn’t know how to choose.”

 

Shao Dabao looked at his sister, but she didn’t look at him.

 

Seeing that the matter had taken so long and was just a one-man show involving Shao Dabao’s repeated leaps and bounds, Zhang Meng lost his patience and threatened Shao Dabao: “If you don’t choose, I will chop off your fingers right now.”

 

Shao Dabao shrank his neck in fright, but finally gritted his teeth and said, “I choose the big.”

 

The dealer wanted to ask again, but after being glared at by Zhang Meng, he did not dare to delay any longer and opened the dice box directly.

 

With just one glance, Shao Dabao’s face turned ashen.

 

Three points.

 

It is small.

“It’s a pity, it was just a little bit close,” Shao Yu said.

 

“This doesn’t count, this doesn’t count, let’s do it again!”

 

Shao Dabao shouted with a sad face. He wanted to struggle again, but Shao Yu pushed him directly to Zhang Meng.

 

“I’m willing to admit defeat.” Shao Yu returned the original words to Zhang Meng.

 

Zhang Meng won against Shao Yu, but he was not very happy. He took a deep look at Shao Yu, and he finally remembered such a ruthless person.

“Dad, Daddy, you bet back again, help me! Help me! You can definitely win back my fingers, Daddy, don’t leave me alone!” Shao Dabao cried so much that his tears and snot were all mixed together.

 

Shao Yu glanced at him with some disgust, but had no plans to continue another round.

 

Shao Yu is an experienced fast traveler. He has traveled through many worlds. He has seen people like Shao Dabao. He has obviously sucked the blood from his sister, but he still feels that it is not enough. He has to send his sister to the wolf’s den. He can’t wait to send her to the wolf’s den. He will squeeze out every last drop of flesh and blood from a person before he is willing to give up.”

 

Such people are born scum.

 

The drums still need to be hammered, if not for a huge change, he will not change at all.

Even though Shao Yu was familiar with the plot and knew that Shao Dabao would be a prodigal son in the future, he still didn’t believe in Shao Dabao’s character at all.

 

Shao Yu deeply understands that when such a person turns around, he is just beaten by society so that he does not dare to do bad things, but it does not mean that he becomes a good person because of it.

 

Since Shao Dabao will be beaten up by society sooner or later, why not have him, the father, beat him up in advance?

 

Shao Yu ignored Shao Dabao’s plea and turned to look at Zhang Meng and said, “My wife and I are old, and we can’t bear to see our children suffer.”

 

“Do you regret it?” Zhang Meng asked, thinking that maybe Shao Yu was not really hard-hearted and just wanted to teach his good-for-nothing son a lesson.

Even Shao Dabao and Wang had a sense of hope in their hearts at this time.

 

Unexpectedly, Shao Yu just shook his head and said pretending to be sad: “We can’t see such a bloody scene. You take him outside to deal with it.”

 

Zhang Meng:…

 

Shao Dabao was completely desperate after hearing this and yelled at Shao Yu, cursing Shao Yu for treating him unfairly.

 

Shao Yu added: “I can’t listen to the child crying. When I hear him crying, I feel very uncomfortable.”

As he spoke, Shao Yu couldn’t help but put his hand to cover his chest, pretending to be heartbroken.

 

Zhang Meng couldn’t help but put his hand on his forehead, but he still made a gesture to the servant. Soon, Shao Dabao was skillfully covered by the Zhang family’s servant and dragged out.

 

Zhang Meng took the newly bought dice from the dealer, turned it around in his hand, weighed it again, and asked, “The old man used to be in this business too?”

 

From the previous “old thing” to the current “old man”, Shao Yu’s status in Zhang Meng’s heart has improved a lot.

 

Shao Yu shook his head and said, “I’m just a lantern maker, but my ears are better.”

 

Zhang Meng paused and asked, “Do you plan to just guard this shop? Have you ever thought about coming over to my place?”

 

For gambling houses, it is best to find people with superb gambling skills for their own use. If they are left outside, who knows when they will come to ruin their place.

 

In order to attract Shao Yu, Zhang Meng offered a very generous reward.

 

But Shao Yu just shook his head and said, “It’s good to be able to hold on to this shop for the rest of my life. How dare I ask for more.”

 

Zhang Meng took another deep look at Shao Yu, as if to verify the truth of Shao Yu’s words.

 

For him, he made a big fuss today, but he didn’t get any benefits at all. Even the gambling house and his own personal affairs were wiped clean by Shao Yu. He lost both dignity and face.

 

Now that she failed to recruit Shao Yu, Zhang Meng secretly made a note in his heart that he would only wait for the future.

 

With such a mood, when he chopped off Shao Dabao’s finger, Zhang Meng also acted very cruelly. He could have only chopped off half of it, but he hinted that his men chopped off the whole finger.

 

Shao Yu waited quietly in the room for a moment, and then heard a whimper outside the room. Soon someone seemed to have released the hand covering his mouth, and Shao Dabao’s screams came from outside: “ My finger, my finger!”
