"Lin Yi, I just took a look and found that your teahouse business is very popular!”Lin Weibo said as he leaned back on the sofa with narrowed eyes.
"It's alright." Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he answered vaguely. He knew that Lin Weibo had never been interested in his teahouse, but why was he suddenly asking about it?
"The business of the teahouse is good. You haven't forgotten what I told you, right?”Lin Weibo asked casually.
"Of course not, Brother." Lin Yi smiled apologetically."Even if I have a bad memory, I wouldn't dare to forget what you said."”
"Is that so?" Lin Weibo sat up and glanced at him." Then why did I hear that your teahouse is a little unruly?”
"Brother, who did you hear that from?" Lin Yi's eyes narrowed.
" Don't worry about who I heard it from." Lin Weibo glared at him impatiently." Let me ask you, is there someone gambling in your teahouse?"”
"Ah?" Lin Yi was shocked, but he immediately denied it." No, how could I do that?”
"Really?" Lin Weibo stared at him sternly and said," Let me tell you, if you don't tell me the truth now, don't look for me if anything happens in the future.”
" This..." Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, then said vaguely," Brother, you know that nowadays, people play cards for excitement, so they usually bring three or five yuan as a wager..."
" Don't play dumb with me." Lin Weibo sneered." What do you mean by three or five dollars? Others lose tens of thousands of dollars. Is this still a bet?" Your family has such a big prize?"
"Ten thousand?" Lin Yi pretended to be surprised and said," That's impossible, right? How could such a thing happen?"
" You're still lying." Lin Weibo stood up and pointed at Lin Yi." Fine, since you won't tell me the truth, I won't bother with your stupid business. You're on your own."”
After saying that, he walked out angrily. When Lin Yi saw this scene, he was immediately in a hurry. He quickly ran over and grabbed Lin Weibo's arm, saying,"Brother, don't be angry. I'll tell you everything.”
"What do you want to tell me?" Lin Weibo stopped and sneered."Didn't you say that your teahouse is very clean?”
"Brother, I didn't want you to worry.”Lin Yi hurriedly smiled apologetically from behind.
"So, you do have an underground casino in your teahouse?”Lin Weibo asked calmly.
" It's not an underground casino," Lin Yi explained carefully." It's just that sometimes when our friends are happy, we play a few rounds together. In fact, the winning or losing is not big, and no one cares about it. Besides, it's all people in the industry. Even if we really lose money, no one will tell anyone. This is what we agreed on beforehand..."
" Bastard." Lin Weibo turned around abruptly and poked his forehead." It's not a big win?" People in the circle? Then let me ask you, what's up with Lin Chenlei? You lost 16,000 yuan in half a year, and you still think you haven't made a big enough fuss?”
"Ah?" Lin Yi was speechless." Brother, y-you know about it?”
"What do you mean? Are you still trying to hide it from me?”Lin Yi glared at him and asked.
"I…I didn't mean that.”Lin Yi wiped the sweat off his forehead and stammered.
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be so bold. I'm really furious.”Lin Weibo sat back on the sofa and said angrily.
" Brother, I..." Lin Yi had never seen Lin Weibo lose his temper like this before, so he was a little anxious. He curled up in front of the sofa, not knowing what to say.
"How long have you been doing this?" After sitting on the sofa for a long time, Lin Weibo looked up at him and asked.
"No, not long. It's only been a year.”Lin Yi lowered his head and said.
"Other than your restaurant, who else is doing it?”Lin Weibo asked with a frown.
"There's also Lin Fei and Lin Tao." Lin Yi answered honestly.
"As expected, it's your three families. So others were right.”Lin Weibo glared at him.
"Brother, who, who did you hear that from?" Lin Yi asked carefully.
"What's wrong?" Lin Weibo sneered." Why are you asking this? Do you still want to take revenge?”
"Brother, look at what you're saying. How would I dare to do that? I was just asking casually.”Lin Yi smiled apologetically.
" It's good that you know." Lin Weibo glared at him." If you dare to cause trouble again, I'll teach you a lesson."”
"Yes, yes." Lin Yi wiped his sweat and nodded repeatedly.
" Lin Yi, I'll make it clear to you today." Lin Weibo picked up the teacup and took a sip. Then, he looked up at him and said," I won't hold it against you for what you did in the past, but from now on, if you dare to gather people to gamble again, I'll get someone to close your teahouse."”
" Yes, I understand." Lin Yi glanced at him and then whispered," Brother, you don't know, but the profits from this casino are actually more profitable than opening a tea factory."”
" Bastard," Lin Weibo scolded." I think you're tired of living a good life and want to have a taste of prison, right?"”
"Brother, how can it be that serious?" Lin Yi was familiar with Lin Weibo's temper. When he saw him reprimanding him sternly, he knew that the storm had passed, so he said shamelessly," Actually, what are we doing? The tycoons in the city used a ruler to measure their wins and losses. That was the real deal.”
"You want to compare yourself to Big Hao?" Lin Weibo sneered." Let me ask you, how can you compare to Big Hao?”
" I don't want to compete with him," Lin Yi said embarrassedly." I'm just saying that even Da Haozi and the others are fine with betting so much. It shouldn't be a problem for us to play around like this."”
"Are you alright?" Lin Weibo sneered." That's because he hasn't touched the reverse scale of others yet. If others don't want to touch him, when others want to touch him, they'll crush him until there's nothing left of him.”
"That can't be, right?" Lin Yi said in surprise," I heard from his subordinate Zhu Zi that he has a backer behind him. No one in Hexi County dares to touch him.”
"How did you recognize his pillar?”Lin Weibo asked warily," You're opening a casino here. Don't tell me you have something to do with them?”
" No, no." Lin Yi shook his head." How is that possible? A person like him wouldn't take the initiative to get to know me. Even if I tried to curry favor with him, I wouldn't be able to."”
" That's good," Lin Weibo said seriously." I won't care much about you if you're the local tyrant in Lin Family Village, but don't get involved with those underworld people. Otherwise, even I can't protect you."”
"Yes, I know that." Lin Yi hurriedly nodded.
"How much does that Lin Chenlei owe you?”Lin Weibo suddenly changed the topic.
"Ah?" Lin Yi was stunned." Brother, why did you suddenly ask this?”
"Don't be so long-winded. Answer my question directly.”Lin Weibo asked impatiently.
"This…a total of 16,000.”Lin Yi said honestly.
"Did you set him up?”Lin Weibo stared at him and asked.
" I, I..." Lin Yi wiped the sweat off his forehead, not knowing how to answer. He wanted to deny this question, but he knew that it couldn't fool his cousin.
" Oh, you." Lin Weibo pointed at Lin Yi and sighed." I don't know what to say to you. As the saying goes, a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its nest. Why can't you understand this principle?"”
