Chapter 4 Father-Son Conversation

Finally, Lu Dongming was awakened by the burning hunger in his belly. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw that the room was dark and there was no trace of sunlight behind the white curtains.

Is it already evening?

Lu Dongming asked himself, then grabbed his cell phone from the bed and struggled to order a takeaway.

Turning on the light, Lu Dongming looked at himself in the mirror. His whole body was thin and dark, his hair was messy and covered with stubble. He had not shaved his beard for almost two months.

He has been hiding here for almost two months and does not dare to go out every day. He can only make a living by ordering takeaway. He sleeps in the rental house all day long. Apart from watching TV, he can only play games. In such a torment, he once again picked up the online gambling that has forced him to almost destroy his family.

Before Lu Dongming came into contact with online gambling, he was also an excellent teacher. He also had a general understanding of the addiction of gambling. Basically, after betting and winning, he would bring great psychological pleasure and dopamine release. After repeated stimulation over the long run, he would lose interest in life.

As for making money, Lu Dongming used to be the best teacher in the school. After two years of qualifications, he would have the opportunity to be rated as a national special teacher, but how much is his monthly salary? It is only 9,000!

But through online gambling, Lu Dongming had about 200,000 flowing water in his hands in one night.

When you can earn money that you may not have earned after working hard for a year in one night, you will basically no longer have the interest in doing ordinary jobs.

So even though Lu Dongming's entire life was ruined by online gambling at this time, facing the high debts that he might not be able to repay in his entire life, Lu Dongming's only hope at this time is to continue gambling to make a comeback.

Fortunately, before he ran away, he took away all the savings from his family. In addition, those he borrowed with his old face, he could at least live happily for one or two years.

As for what to do in a year or two?

Lu Dongming didn't know.

Neither want to know.

Anyway, his life is really bad.

At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly came. Lu Dongming didn't dare to open the door. He opened his phone and checked it. He confirmed that the takeaway showed that it had been delivered to the door. He walked to the door wearing slippers and opened a crack: "Put the takeaway in."

There was a quiet outside the door. Lu Dongming was a little strange, but he heard a cold voice coming from the opposite side.

"dad."

"It's me."

Lu Dongming was shocked. He held the door hard and closed it to death, then locked it. He was about to try to break the window and escape from the window, but saw a drone hovering outside his window, and the eight-axis propeller was spinning like a windmill.

The sound of Luyuan came out calmly from the drone.

"I came alone, but Mom didn't come with me."

"If you are willing to open the door, I won't tell those who are collecting debts."

...

...

Lu Dongming opened the door and Lu Yuan walked in through the crack in the door. Fortunately, he was quite thin, otherwise he would be stuck in the crack in the crack in the door.

After coming in, Lu Yuan first pushed the takeaway box in his hand away from the table and drank the remaining cans, and then looked around.

Compared with the current technological level, Xiaojiao's technological content is really too high. In just a few seconds, Xiaojiao broke through the information database of Luocheng, and then intercepted Lu Dongming's relevant information from the vast information database. He happened to see Lu Dongming ordering takeout, so he bought the takeout and bought a bottle of medium-grade liquor.

This is a rental house with only one bedroom. Although it has independent bathrooms, the total area is only about fifteen square meters, which can be regarded as a real scattered residence.

The rental house was full of stale smell, the sour taste of food rotten, the fishy sweetness of beer and carbonated drinks, and the greasy smell unique to the single male room. Lu Dongming, with his fluffy black hair that had just woken up, had a clear hairline retreated on his forehead. Lu Yuan sighed, opened the takeaway bag, took out the food inside one by one, then took out the plastic wine glass for the delivery, filled Lu Dongming with a glass of white wine and pushed it over: "Dad, do you regret it?"

Lu Dongming picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then looked at Lu Yuan with a squint: "Have you grown your skills?"

Lu Yuan smiled, filled his father's wine glass, then poured himself a glass, drank it all, and then his face turned red in an instant and he coughed for a while.

At this time, Lu Yuan realized that although he had drunk a lot of times in memory, this body was really the first time he had in his first life.

When he opened his eyes, he saw his father's hand stretching out half, trying to pat him on his shoulder but not daring to do so. Seeing him opening his eyes, Lu Dongming silently shrank his hand back.

Lu Yuan then stared at his father's eyes: "Dad, if you can go back? Are you willing?"

"Go back?" Lu Dongming seemed to hear a joke: "Why should I go back? Are you?"

"Yes, it depends on me." Lu Yuan replied calmly: "Do you remember what day it was today?"

"Today? It's June, right?" Lu Dongming said uncertainly.

"Yes, today is June 7th, which is the day for my college entrance examination." Lu Yuan was not excited at all. He looked at the changing expression on Lu Dongming's face at that moment and continued: "How much money do you owe in total?"

"What do you ask this!" Lu Dongming became panicked in an instant: "Why, can you still pay me back the money?"

Lu Yuan nodded: "If I can pay it back, can you come back? And don't touch gambling again in the future?"

When Lu Dongming heard this, he couldn't help but laugh: "What do you know? Do you know how much money I owe?"

"Two million is up, but not more than four million." Lu Yuan looked into his father's eyes and said calmly, his tone did not fluctuate at all.

"Is it right?"

Lu Dongming looked at Lu Yuan incredibly. Although the other party was his son, he felt like another person.

Could it be that the time when I left my son, I could make this 18-year-old child grow up so much?

Lu Dongming lowered his head and said bitterly from his mouth.

"I haven't calculated it in detail."

"But it should be about 3.7 million."

"I'm afraid I won't even pay the annual interest rate for my whole life."

Three million and seven million were basically at the upper limit of his estimated value. Lu Yuan thought quietly. His father was still borrowing usury. The annual interest rate did not exceed 30% and his father would burn high incense. It is very likely that his profit would be profitable. He basically had to pay more than one million in interest a year.

Lu Yuan smiled and shook his head, took out the remaining five thousand yuan in his pocket wrapped in newspaper, and pressed it into his father's hand: "If you have my son and my mother in your heart, you'll quit the bet."

"I will pay you back your account."

"Let's go home and live a good life."

After saying this, Lu Yuan picked up the wine glass and looked at Lu Dongming again, drank the wine in the glass and left the messy and unpleasant rental house. Only Lu Dongming was left standing alone in the rental house.

He waited until Lu Yuan's footsteps were so soft that he disappeared that he opened the square newspaper that Lu Yuan put in his palm. Seeing the new pink banknotes, Lu Dongming couldn't help but kneel down on the ground, hugged his head and started to cry.

He didn't expect that he would really fall to the point where he asked his son to give him living expenses.

He is only in his early forties.

Lu Dongming cried for a long time after losing his composure on the ground, and he stood up until he was so hungry that he started to stand up. He opened the takeaway delivered by Lu Yuan and started to eat it voraciously.

It was not until he had enough food and drink that Lu Dongming picked up the five thousand yuan from the table again, thought about it and put it in his arms. Today's experience was like a sudden light in the dark abyss, and it seemed that he could find light by walking towards it.

Today it turned out that his son was taking the college entrance examination. Lu Dongming thought that he remembered that he still had more than 300,000 yuan to run away, so he couldn't help but take out his cell phone and wanted to buy his son some gifts for the college entrance examination.

When his hand was sliding on the transparent screen, a familiar app jumped in front of Lu Dongming. His eyes trembled and subconsciously wanted to delete the app completely. However, when his hand moved to the delete key, a devil's idea jumped into Lu Dongming's mind again.

I'll play the last time?

After this, return to the family?

Thinking of this, he clicked on the app again and chose the betting route that he had already been familiar with.

This is my final battle, should the bet be bigger?

Lu Dongming adjusted the bet to 200,000 and told himself that if he won this, he would use the money he had won to buy a car for his son.

He is already optimistic about that car, all-electric drive, cruising 150 mph at a time, and autonomous driving at level 155 is basically the highest reflection of human industrial level today.

Where do men don’t like cars?

Unfortunately, my car has been sold to pay off my debts.

Lu Dongming thought this way, showing the gambler's eyes, and was about to press the betting button with a strange and fanatical smile.

Suddenly, a strange current came out from his fingers and went straight to his heart.
