Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fu Zhi looked through the contract meticulously before making a big dramatic scroll of her own name.

“Li Zhi.”

Jiang Ningbei wanted to ask her to drop the thought, but Fu Zhi had already handed the contract back to the person in charge.

The person-in-charge nodded in satisfaction. There was still some time left before the start of the game. Since Fu Zhi appeared at the last moment, he did not plan to lock her up with the other contenders.

After all, only those who were facing financial difficulties would come here to fight with the beasts.

Even though the girl in front of him was wearing a mask, he assumed that she was pretty judging from her body figure. At that time, a lot of people would come after her. Therefore, he wanted Fu Zhi to go onto the field at her best so that more people would place bets on her.

After Fu Zhi had signed the contract to the person in charge, he offered to take them for a stroll around the arena. However, Fu Zhi turned down his offer as she had other things to do. Holding a copy of the contract, she headed towards the recreation area.

The person-in-charge then hastily went up to stop him. “I’m sorry. According to the rules, you can only leave the center field after you’ve finished the match.”

He was worried that Fu Zhi would bring the contract out of the arena.

“I just want to look for a person,” Fu Zhi said.

The person-in-charge fell silent for a moment before saying, “Who are you looking for? We can help you to look for him.”

“Zhao Wu,” Fu Zhi replied.

“Zhao Wu? I remember he doesn’t have any relatives and has only one son. Why are you looking for him?”

“It’s none of your business. Unless you want to be part of it? Then, of course, I would tell you why I am looking for him. However, you have to bear the consequences yourself.”

The person in charge’s heart skipped a beat.

He gripped tightly at the uniform that he was going to give to Fu Zhi and said, “Okay, then. We will help you to look for him.”

Fu Zhi shrugged. Honestly, she felt it was better this way. Since it would save her a lot of time and effort.

After a short while, one of the staff approached Fu Zhi and said, “Our arena is separated into several sections, and a poor person like Zhao Wu doesn’t have a lot of space to move around. We’ve put him along with other poor people in a dedicated area. Please follow after me. I’ll lead you there.”

Very soon, the staff brought Fu Zhi to the audience seat. He watched as Fu Zhi walked into the crowd to look for Zhao Wu before sending a text message to the person in charge.

The man heaved out a sigh of relief after he received the text message. Then, he replied, “Keep watching her. I want to know what her relationship is to Zhao Wu and why she’s looking for him.”

“Roger that.”

Fu Zhi and Jiang Ningbei walked among the crowd as they looked around for Zhao Wu.

The audience seats were further divided into several categories. Those that sat at the front were mostly rich people, while the poor people occupied the seats at the back.

Fu Zhi was fully aware of Zhao Wu’s financial status, so she started to look for him from the back.

It was just that before she could reach the last row, the first row erupted in a fierce uproar.

“The first one to start the match tonight is the contender No.6, Black Demon! He’s very strong, and he’s never once lost a match before. Trust me. Place your bets on him. I’m sure he’ll win tonight as well!”

“B*llsh*t! I’d rather throw my money into the river than believe you. It’s exactly because of you that I lost nearly 50,000 yuan last time. I’m not going to trust you anymore. Let me be clear with you, Zhao Wu, if you don’t pay me back the 50,000 yuan, I swear to God that you won’t be able to see the sun tomorrow!”

Fu Zhi came to an abrupt stop when she heard their conversation.

Jiang Ningbei, who was standing beside her, lifted his brows and said, “Zhizhi, it seems like Zhao Wu is over there.”

He raised his hand and pointed down to the first row of the audience seat. The man kneeling on the ground was none other than Zhou Zihuai’s stepfather, Zhao Wu. The corner of his lips was bruised, and he was wearing an ingratiating smile on his face right now.

“Mr. Tian! Please give me another chance, Mr. Tian. It’s just a mistake last time. I assure you it won’t happen again!” Zhao Wu said as he wrapped his arm around Mr. Tian’s leg. Although it seemed like he was begging for mercy, the emotion in his eyes suggested otherwise. The light in his eyes was the same as those gambling addicts. Whenever they lost a game, they always thought that they could win it back in the next game, and people with this kind of thinking would usually end up losing everything.

After all, not everyone had the luck to keep winning except for one person: Ye Jiu.

He was graced by the goddess of luck.

Fu Zhi looked coldly at Zhao Wu. He looked like such a wimp, unlike the big strong man who beat Zhou Zihuai in his own house.

“Please give me another chance to redeem myself, Mr. Tian!” Zhao Wu begged, “I assure you we’ll win this time! If we don’t win it this time, I’ll return all the money to you, including that 50,000 yuan!”

“Don’t trust him, boss. I’m sure he’s lying to you,” a bodyguard said.

“That’s right, Mr. Tian. I bet he doesn’t know how to place bets either.”

“Let’s not waste our time on him, Mr. Tian.”

Mr. Tian took a drag on his cigarette, but he did not say anything.

Zhao Wu then continued in a fervent manner, “Mr. Tian, I’ve been a gambler my whole life, and I can assure you that nobody knows the rules of gambling better than me. If we lose again this time, I will bear all the losses! If we win, we’ll split it 30/70!”

“But you lost last time, and you don’t have any money to pay me back,” Mr. Tian said as he took another drag from the cigarette. “You know how hard it is to earn money nowadays, don’t you? If you want me to trust you, don’t you think you should show me some resolution?”

“Yes! Yes! Yes! You’re right, Mr. Tian. I have a house. I can give…”

Thump!

A bodyguard delivered a kick to Zhao Wu, sending him flying towards a chair not far away. Blood began to stream down his forehead, and he looked pitiful. However, Fu Zhi knew she should not pity him. After all, a person like him who abused his son and wife would never be a good guy.

“I don’t want your sh*tty house!”

Zhao Wu had a concussion, and he could not hear anything for a moment. He shook his head to pull himself together and hastily said, “If… If you don’t like my house, I still have other things! For example… For example, my son! I have a son. I’ve already contacted a private hospital, and they said that his kidneys are worth a lot of money. If you don’t like kidney, I can sell him to the arena and let him fight with the beasts!

“And… And also my wife!” Zhao Wu chided inwardly when he thought that Mrs. Zhou could not go out and earn money anymore since she was pregnant. “My wife is pretty, and… and… although she’s a little old, she looks youthful. Mr. Tian, if… if you guys like it, I can ask her to sleep with you all tonight! She won’t say no to me!”

“She won’t say no to you?” Mr. Tian patted Zhao Wu’s face as he repeated.

Zhao Wu nodded profusely.

Mr. Tian let out a smirk, and then in the next second, the smile was gone and he sent a kick at Zhao Wu.

“Do you know that I despise people who abandon their wives and daughters the most?” Mr. Tian hissed as he stepped on Zhao Wu’s hand, “I don’t think I’m a good guy, but at least, I won’t abandon my own family. I’ll give you one more night. If you still can’t get enough money to pay me back, I’ll chop your arm off. Now, get lost!”

“But…”

“Get the hell out of here!” A bodyguard snapped as he pointed a bat at Zhao Wu, “You don’t have any say here! Can’t you hear what my boss said? Get the hell out of here! Or do you want me to chop off your arm right now?”

Zhao Wu was startled. He scrambled up from the ground, and he could only keep quiet even if he wanted to say something.

Clenching his fist tightly, he turned around to look for his next “buyer”.

Then, Fu Zhi’s voice rang out.

“Let’s have a bet. If you win, in addition to the 50,000 yuan you owe, I can give you an additional 1 million yuan.”

Zhao Wu stopped in his tracks. His eyes lit up with joy as he turned his head around and saw Fu Zhi and Jiang Ningbei.

Both of them were wearing masks, so he could not see their faces well.

However, since the voice sounded like a female voice to him and Fu Zhi did not seem like someone who could make a decision, he kept looking around.

“Stop looking around. I’m the one who talked to you. If you win, I’ll give you a million yuan,” Fu Zhi repeated.

“You? You can give me money?” Zhao Wu asked hesitantly as he wiped the blood off the corner of his lips.

Even though he was tall and stronger than most high school boys, he was nothing compared to Jiang Ningbei. His eyes were swivelling inside of the sockets, and he was that kind of manipulative person that Mrs. Zhou talked about.

Fu Zhi looked at him and nodded. “Yes. I can give you money.”

“But why me? Do you want me to help you place a bet?”

There was no such thing as free lunch in this world. Although Zhao Wu was greedy and he liked to take advantage of other people, he knew very well that some of the advantages came with a huge price.

Fu Zhi let out a scoff as she continued, “There’s no other reason. Zhou Zihuai is your son, right? I’m his classmate.”

Zhao Wu immediately dropped his guard the moment he heard what Fu Zhi had said. He reckoned that his son’s classmates must be a bunch of idiots given the fact that Zhou Zihuai was a pushover himself.

He threw himself on a chair and said, “Yes. Zhou Zihuai is my son. Who are you? His girlfriend? Not bad. I didn’t expect an idiot like him would have such a beautiful girlfriend as well.”

As he was talking, he measured Fu Zhi from the top of her head to her toe.

“I’m not her girlfriend. We’re just normal friends,’ Fu Zhi explained. Then, she asked, “I heard that you like to beat your wife and son up, and you like to gamble, right?”

Zhao Wu squinted his eyes and he soon understood everything.

He jerked up from the chair and said, “Okay! I get it! You guys are making fun of me!”

He thought Fu Zhi just wanted to stand up for his son, so he chided, “Let me tell you something. I like to gamble, and that’s my business. Zhou Zihuai is my son, and legally, I’m his guardian, and as a guardian, it’s my responsibility to discipline him!”

“Discipline him? You nearly killed him,” Jiang Ningbei added.

“Have you ever heard of the phrase “spare the rod spoil the child”? Since he dares to talk back to me with that kind of attitude, he has to beat the consequences. I suggest you two stay out of this as well. If not…”

Fu Zhi did not know what to say anymore. She was not here to talk to Zhao Wu.. She was here to avenge Zhou Zihuai.
