Chapter 40: Ambushed

  "What? Leopard?" Little Feng looked at Wang Haodong's three Ks, his face turned pale.

  The bald man's face was filled with astonishment, and he exclaimed, "How is this possible?"

  Xiao Jiang laughed and said: "No wonder you've been following me all along, it turns out you got such a good hand."

  "Sorry, I won." Wang Haodong stood up and pulled the chips in front of him, saying with a pleased tone. The depression from losing money earlier was gone, just like the gloomy sky suddenly turning into a bright sunny day.

  "Awesome, you're really something! You're indeed my brother." Wang Kai burst out laughing.

  Wang Haodong just grunted and said, "Hmph, it seems like the leopard still wants to eat hongbao money, each of you give 1,000 yuan."

  Lei Weibin laughed and said, "That's right, we agreed before that not speaking doesn't count as not keeping a promise." As he spoke, he handed over 1,000 yuan to Wang Haodong, and Wang Kai also gave some. Xiao Jiang and the others couldn't renege on their debt, so they also handed over the money. Only Xiaofeng and her boyfriend were hesitating.

  "What? No money?" Wang Haodong asked with a smile, earlier he was always being bullied by this cheap woman, now finally he can lift his head up high. "If you don't have money, then forget about the betrothal gift, I won't ask for it."

  "Damn arrogant." Xiaofeng stood up directly, pointing at Wang Haodong: "Fuck, I won't owe you money."

  Wang Haodong immediately fired back, "Keep your mouth clean."

  Lei Weibin immediately said: "Xiaofeng, losing some money is nothing, the key is to be harmonious and not speak dirty words."

  "Hey, Brother Wang, take a look?" Wang Kai stood beside Wang Haodong and said indifferently to the man who was staring at Xiaofeng.

  "I'll give what's due, and if I don't have it, I'll borrow." Xiaofeng's man stood up and said to Lei Weibin: "Weibin, lend me 10,000 yuan."

  "No problem." Lei Weibin replied generously, directly taking out a bundle of banknotes with seals from his bag and handing it to the person in front of him.

  "Our two shares of happy money, 2,000 yuan." Xiaofeng's man handed the money to Wang Haodong and then directly pulled away an unhappy Xiaofeng.

  Wang Haodong could see it, Xiaofeng was very unhappy, his face also lengthened, like a donkey's face.

  "I'm not used to losing." As the two figures disappeared from the second floor, Xiao Jiang muttered.

  "It's getting late, I think it's time to wrap things up."

  The bald man stood up and said, "Well, it's getting late too, let's end it."

  Lei Weibin looked down at the banknotes in front of him and smiled: "I won a little tonight, let's have a midnight snack together?"

  "Never mind, I have something else to attend to." The bald man left, and the others followed suit. Only Lei Weibin and Xiao Jiang remained.

  Wang Hao Dong got a total of 50,000 yuan in chips and an additional 6,000 yuan in lucky money. He first repaid the 20,000 yuan he borrowed from Wang Kai, leaving him with 36,000 yuan.

  This money came so easily, as long as he got a good hand, Wang Hao Dong's heart became eager, thinking that if he could win this much every day, he would soon become a multimillionaire. However, he knew that tonight's good luck and encountering another stupid woman didn't mean his luck would always be good in the future.

  Lei Weibin counted his winnings and said: "Ah Kai, I won almost 100,000 yuan. Here's a commission of 5,000 yuan for you."

  Wang Kai took the money and lightly tapped it a few times, smiling: "Thanks for the support, Bin Ge."

  "We're all friends, we've grown up together since childhood. You start and I'll support you." Lei Weibin patted Wang Kai's shoulder, the two exchanged a smile, with a kind of tacit understanding that only comes from being old friends for many years.

  "I'm busy, I have to go, the woman is still waiting for me in the city." Lei Weibin said after filling his water cup with boiling water and then went downstairs and left.

  Wang Kai gave Wang Haodong a wink, and Wang Haodong understood and came over to go downstairs with him, seeing Lei Weibin off.

  Lei Weibin left after getting into a Passat sedan, before which he handed one Su cigarette each to Wang Haodong and Wang Kai, then got in the car and left.

  At this time, everyone had left the main camp. Wu Bin's men might come to ambush at any moment, so Wang Hao Dong was very cautious. Until Lei Wei Bin walked away and observed for a while without seeing anyone suspicious, he then entered the yard with Wang Kai together.

  "Not bad, Hao Dong, you won almost 30,000 in one night." Wang Kai smiled, and the others gathered around, their faces filled with envy.

  Wang Haodong waved his hand generously and smiled: "We made a profit tonight, everyone will have dinner on me tomorrow."

  "Hao Dong is really impressive!" Liu Lele flattered.

  Wang Dahai smiled and said: "Haodong big brother is generous, I like it."

  "Go upstairs, I'll give you money." Wang Kai waited until everyone calmed down and started giving orders.

  Making money in this line is fast, and all the money is cash. Because Wu Bin is like a wolf, always looking for trouble, so people who follow Wang Kai to do things are all at risk to some extent. He chooses to make money and then distribute it to everyone, which also stimulates everyone's excitement and vitality to some extent.

  Tonight's account, excluding the 600 yuan head fee, there is a commission of 5,000 yuan, adding up to 5,600. Wang Kai gave Wang Haodong two percent, which was agreed upon. Because he won money and was in a good mood, he asked for less, taking only 600.

  The remaining 5,000, Wang Kai took 2,000, and then took out a portion of the remaining 3,000 to distribute it among the people present tonight. There were six people participating in the distribution of money on site, including Liu Lele, Hao Qiang, Daxin, Biaozi, and his two younger brothers.

  These two younger brothers have just joined the gang and are playing a supporting role, so they temporarily get a little less. Each of them got 150 yuan, while Liu Lele and the other three each got 400 yuan. The remaining part was distributed to several brothers who were ambushed earlier and were still recovering from their injuries.

  It's already late at night, the guests have all left, so everyone can rest now. Wang Kai said a few words and seeing that everyone was tired, he let them take a break.

  Wang Haodong and Wang Kai each had a room to themselves, while the others shared rooms two to a room. Biaozi's two younger brothers took turns keeping watch at night; if there was any movement, they would wake them up.

  "Everyone be careful tonight." Wang Kai reminded them again before going to sleep, and then everyone went to rest.

  Wang Haodong lay on the wooden bed in his room, with more than 20,000 yuan in cash that he had won tucked in his arms, feeling delighted and comfortable. If it weren't late at night and others were resting, he would have hummed a tune.

  "Wait until dawn breaks, the bank opens, I have to go to the bank and return Wang Peng's money."

  During this trip, Wang Peng generously lent a helping hand. Upon learning that he was facing financial difficulties, without hesitation, he gave 3,000 yuan. Otherwise, Wang Haodong would definitely be struggling to make ends meet now. This person doesn't like borrowing money and only does so when there's no other way out. Once he has the means, he immediately repays the debt, even if the lender is a good friend with whom he shares a deep bond, and won't make an exception even if they don't pressure him to repay.

  At night, Wang Hao Dong was very vigilant and woke up immediately with the slightest movement. He took out the dagger from under his pillow, ready to attack at any time. Fortunately, nothing happened that night, and no one came over.

  At six o'clock, Wang Haodong got up from bed and wanted to brush his teeth, but unfortunately found that there was no toothbrush, so he went downstairs to buy a toothbrush.

  Everyone else was asleep, Wang Haodong arrived in the yard and found that the two little brothers who were keeping watch had fallen asleep. He couldn't help but frown, fortunately, the two big wolf dogs next to him were still spirited, and as soon as they saw Wang Haodong, they immediately barked loudly.

  "Wang Haodong shouted: 'You bastards, what are you yelling about? I'll kill you all!'"

  Woo woo.

  Woof woof.

  Two dogs glared at each other, their fur standing on end, as if ready to pounce.

  "Who?"

  The little brother who fell asleep finally woke up, let out a cry, and when he saw it was Wang Haodong, he hurriedly greeted him: "Haodong big brother, why aren't you sleeping?"

  "I got up early and couldn't sleep, so I went to buy a toothbrush. From now on, when you're keeping watch at night and feel sleepy, take turns sleeping while the other one keeps watch, don't both fall asleep at the same time, or if something happens, neither of you will know."

  After listening to Wang Haodong's teachings, the two of them hastily said: "Yes yes yes, we'll be more careful in the future."

  "Are you guys hungry? I'll go get some food for you."

  "Thank you, Hao Dong big brother."

  Carrots and sticks are the only way to subdue subordinates, Wang Hao Dong just trained two people and wanted to buy them something to eat, which is fully utilizing this method.

  Wang Haodong took out the key given by Wang Kai, opened the lock of the big gate, and walked out in big strides. After he left, the two closed the door, being careful to guard against anyone's attack, and if he came back, wanting to enter the house, he had to report his number first.

  Walking westward, there is a small supermarket and a breakfast shop, Wang Hao Dong strides westward.

  Wang Kai's house is located on the east side of the town, not in the center of the town, and it's a bit secluded. Early in the morning, there aren't many people around, but on the road thirty meters away from the courtyard, a white unlicensed van was parked.

  As Wang Hao was crossing the road, the car door suddenly opened and three burly men jumped out, wielding machetes and charging at him.

  Ambush?

  Wang Hao Dong suddenly understood that Liu Le Le was ambushed by Wu Bin's men, led by Lai Zi, when he went out to buy breakfast yesterday morning. Now that he had encountered the same situation, it meant that the opponent had already investigated and knew that he was Wang Kai's man, so they took him down while he was out.

  Three people closed in on Wang Haodong, their knives flashing with a cold glint as they hacked at his thighs and shoulders, producing a whistling sound that split the air. Without a doubt, these sharp blades would immediately create a bloody gash wherever they struck, sending fresh blood spraying outward.

  Ambush, the key is to be stealthy and sudden. They played it very smoothly, ordinary people would have fallen for it immediately. But Wang Hao Dong was no ordinary person. Years of real combat training and countless street fights had honed his quick reflexes and agile movements. As they attacked, he immediately retreated and dodged.

  With a swish, Wang Haodong drew out the dagger from his waist and, as the three men pounced on him, he directly used a hidden weapon technique to fling the dagger in his hand.

  Hoo-hoo.

  Hmph.

  The dagger struck one of them in the thigh, directly nailing it in, three inches deep into the flesh. Fresh blood gushed out like running water, instantly soaking that person's pants.

  Oh ah.

  Until this moment, the person who was hit stopped in his tracks, lowered his head to look at the wound, stretched out his hand to hold his thigh, and let out a miserable cry, like a slaughtered pig.

  Wang Haodong counterattacked, and one of them was immediately disabled. The remaining two, however, were not afraid at all, and frantically charged forward, holding machetes, rushing to his side, raising their arms and slashing fiercely towards his neck.

  Wang Haodong dodged to the side, and the man's chopping knife fell empty, brushing through the air with a swishing sound.

  Another person's machete also came chopping down directly.

  In this armed melee, dangerous moments occur. If it's a fist, it doesn't matter, getting hit once is nothing, but facing a knife, the human body isn't made of steel, so it can't be withstood.

  Wang Haodong's years of combat experience told him that if he was surrounded by multiple people with knives, it was impossible to dodge, so let the harder or thicker parts of his body take the knife, which could minimize the damage to the greatest extent.

  He twisted his shoulder, Wang Hao Dong suddenly twisted his waist, using this action, his body bent down, avoiding the chopping knife, and then suddenly topped, slantingly crashing into that person's belly.
