No money
On this occasion, it sounds like a joke.
But Wen Jianing's expression was very calm. He saw people at a table looking at him, hesitating whether to stand up and look at his clothes and trouser pockets for everyone. To be precise, he didn't take a penny with him. He only had about a thousand dollars on him, and he didn't take his credit card with him.
Li Rong was half-smiling, with an expression of watching a good show.
Cao Songquan was just about to open his mouth to help him clear the siege, but Lu Jinxin said first, "I'll lend it to you."
So Cao Songquan choked back what he was about to say. He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Lu Jinlang and Lu Jinxin were brothers.
In this private room, there are also many young and beautiful women in scantily clad clothes.
As soon as Li Rong took out his cigarette, a woman immediately stepped forward to help him light it.
Wen Jianing looked around at the people on the table and said, "Mr. Lu, I'm afraid I can't afford it."
Li Rong burst out laughing, "What? Did you know you were going to lose before this started?"
Wen Jianing continued: "Unless you say you don't have to pay it back, I can think about it."
Lu Jinxin looked at him coldly. It seems that Lu Jinlang is disgracing the Lu family by raising such a small thing.
Cao Songquan felt that he was causing trouble for Wen Jianing. He really didn't expect to go there. The brothers Lu Jinxin and Lu Jinlang were both prosperous in their respective fields. Usually, when one mentioned one, he would not think of the other. Come. Now that Lu Jinxin is targeting Wen Jianing, Cao Song just thinks about it, it's broken, this is the little white face that the elder brother has to clean up with the younger brother.
He thought that he was very obliged to help Wen Jianing, so he cleared his throat and said, "So, Xiao Ke is here to play with me, he didn't plan to go to the table, and I didn't tell him to go to the table, just forget it tonight. Let's talk about it later."
Facing Cao Songquan, Lu Jinxin was very polite, he said, "It's okay Director Cao, he doesn't necessarily lose."
Li Rong suddenly said: "If you lose, you can't afford to take off your clothes. If you lose, take off one piece."
Wen Jianing was angry and funny, and wanted to return a few words to Li Rong, but he felt it was boring to argue with him, so he simply said to Lu Jinxin: "Wait a minute, I'll make a call."
In front of everyone, Wen Jianing took out his mobile phone and dialed Lu Jinlang directly.
Lu Jinlang had just fallen asleep at this time. The phone rang for a while before he connected, and said softly, "Xinhang? Is there something wrong so late?"
Wen Jianing said, "Jinlang, I'm on a gambling boat on the high seas, with your second brother and Li Rong."
After a brief silence, Lu Jinlang made a soft "um" and waited for the next sentence.
Wen Jianing looked at Lu Jinxin's expression while talking, and then said, "Your brother said to lend me money to bet with him, would you mind?"
Lu Jinlang smiled and said, "Let's go then."
Wen Jianing said, "But you know, I can't afford to lose the most. I don't have that much money."
Lu Jinlang said to him, "If you lose, it's mine."
Wen Jianing smiled and said, "You have to tell your second brother."
Lu Jinlang said, "Give him the phone."
Wen Jianing then handed his cell phone to Lu Jinxin, Lu Jinxin took it with a gloomy face, and the first sentence Lu Jinlang heard on the phone was: "Second brother, Xinhang's account is on my head, you can play. ."
Lu Jinxin said word by word, "Lu Jinlang, you have a sick mind!" Then he hung up the phone.
Wen Jianing suddenly felt better. He said to Lu Jinxin, "Let's talk about it first, how is the interest calculated?"
Lu Jinxin said, "I won't charge you any interest."
Wen Jianing smiled and said, "Okay, come on."
They were playing baccarat, and Wen Jianing borrowed chips directly from Lu Jinxin. Wen Jianing is a very restrained person when it comes to gambling, and he is not greedy at all.
Except for him, the people at this table often come out to play. Lu Jinxin, Li Rong and the like are not gamblers, they are just a pastime.
Wen Jianing seemed to have a particularly good luck tonight, winning three games in a row at the beginning.
Li Rong didn't say anything and looked at Lu Jinxin.
Lu Jinxin had a cigarette in his mouth, and the expression on his face was indifferent.
Wen Jianing stood up and pushed Lu Jinxin the chips he had borrowed and won.
"What do you mean?" Lu Jinxin asked.
Wen Jianing said, "I'll take advantage of it, and I won't take advantage of you." He moved his stiff shoulders and said, "Can I go to rest now? You guys play slowly."
After he finished speaking, Cao Songquan said immediately: "Go quickly." It was to help him out of the siege.
Even if Wen Jianing lost the money, there was still Lu Jinlang behind him. Lu Jinxin himself felt bored, so he stopped forcing him, buried his head in the soot, and didn't say a word.
So Wen Jianing went straight to the door of the private room, opened the door and walked out.
It was already midnight, the casino lobby was still lively, and the entire luxury cruise ship was still brightly lit from a distance.
He felt that the air in the private room was smoky and cloudy. At this time, he planned to go to the deck to breathe fresh air, and then ask the waiter to open a room for him to sleep.
There was no one on the deck, maybe some tourists could be seen earlier, but by this time even the tourists went back to their rooms to sleep.
The only ones still awake are the gamblers.
Wen Jianing looked into the distance, the sea was dark and silent, there was no wind at all tonight, it was too quiet.
He stood quietly for more than ten minutes by himself, and another person came on the deck, a tall middle-aged man with a haggard expression and pale face.
Seeing that he kept looking down at the pitch-black water below, Wen Jianing suddenly felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously turned his head to look for the crew on board.
Unexpectedly, the man turned to talk to him at this time: "Are you a star?"
Wen Jianing hesitated a little and said, "I've acted in TV series, do you know me?"
The middle-aged man smiled, "My daughter likes you very much, the costume drama from before."
He spoke incoherently, perhaps drinking a little. A drunken gambler, Wen Jianing didn't think he had anything to say to him, he turned around and wanted to go into the cabin.
Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man grabbed his wrist and said, "I have lost so much that I have nothing left."
"So what?" Wen Jianing looked at him vigilantly and tried to pull out his hand, but it didn't work. The drunk man was stronger than he thought.
so? So he doesn't plan to go back today, he just jumps here if he wants, and then he can do it. Just before jumping into the sea, he suddenly saw this beautiful man next to him, and he had a cruel idea.
The man didn't answer Wen Jianing. While pulling him hard, he hugged him with both arms and retreated to the railing of the deck.
Wen Jianing guessed what he wanted to do, and immediately struggled hard. His strength might not be as strong as that drunk madman, but he was a man after all. The madman tried for a long time, but couldn't drag him over.
Wen Jianing began to shout loudly: "What are you doing? Let me go!"
During the pulling process, the middle-aged man lifted his foot and slammed into Wen Jianing's knee. The old injury there was not healed, and Wen Jianing's whole body trembled in pain. At this time, he was dragged to the edge of the deck.
Some employees who noticed the disturbance on the deck had already run out.
Wen Jianing held back the pain and kicked the man between the legs. Seeing him take a few steps back in pain, he didn't want to entangle with him, and dragged his injured leg to the direction of the person.
It turned out that the man took out his mobile phone and smashed it on Wen Jianing's head from behind.
Wen Jianing felt a little dizzy for a moment, the man used all his strength, and before those people rushed over, he picked up Wen Jianing and jumped over the railing into the sea water.
Wen Jianing knew how to swim, but after entering the water, the middle-aged man loosened his grip on Wen Jianing, and Wen Jianing kicked him away and helped him towards the sea.
The rescuer moved very quickly. After Wen Jianing helped him to the surface, someone quickly dragged him from behind and dragged him to swim to the side.
People in the casino lobby didn't know what happened on the deck, but a staff member immediately notified Cao Songquan that Cao Songquan arrived just a moment after Wen Jianing was rescued aboard, along with Li Rong and Lu Jinxin. Came here in a hurry.
Someone took a blanket and wrapped Wen Jianing.
Wen Jianing was trembling all over, his hair and clothes were all wet, the corners of his mouth were black from the fight just now, and the whole person looked pitifully fragile. He clutched the blanket tightly with both hands.
Cao Songquan was taken aback when he saw him like this. After all, he abducted people at night, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
Li Rong said: "Send to the hospital."
Wen Jianing raised his head and said, "Where's Lu Jinlang? Would you like Lu Jinlang to come over?"
Lu Jinxin frowned, "Lu Jinlang takes several hours to come here."
There were two crew members on the ship to help him, but he found that the knee hurt so bad that he was very afraid that these people would help him change his clothes, or he would take off his clothes and pants when he got to the hospital to see if he had any wounds. He could only hold onto the blanket tightly and said, "I want to see Lu Jinlang, or I won't go anywhere!"
Cao Songquan squatted in front of him worriedly and asked, "Xiao Ke, what's the matter?"
Wei Lun was more rational and said, "Anyway, let's call Lu Jinlang first."
Hearing this, Li Rong took out his mobile phone and called Lu Jinlang.
And Lu Jinxin bent slightly to look at him, "Did you crash your head?"
Wen Jianing didn't speak, his head was in a mess, just thinking, if he fainted just now, or died unfortunately, then now he can only lie there and let these people take off his clothes and find out The secret of his body; or if he escaped this time, what will happen if he is injured or ill in the future
He didn't dare to imagine that he suddenly felt that he was so powerless in his control.
Wen Jianing was finally sent to the shore by a speedboat. Cao Songquan was full of guilt and escorted him personally. After landing, he was driven to the hospital by someone.
But in the parking lot of the hospital, Wen Jianing refused to get out of the car and insisted on waiting until Lu Jinlang arrived.
Cao Song couldn't understand everything. He knew the relationship between Wen Jianing and Lu Jinlang, but he never felt that Wen Jianing had such an awkward personality. He was a very cheerful young man before.
Lu Jinlang came faster than expected.
As soon as Cao Songquan saw him, he felt as if a savior had come, and he wanted to call Amitabha Buddha.
Lu Jinlang nodded. At this time, he didn't have time to talk to him. He walked to the door of the car and stretched out his hand to Wen Jianing: "Come on."
Wen Jianing immediately reached out and asked Lu Jinlang to carry him out.
Cao Songquan stared at all this in a stunned manner. It was as if he had picked up a little wolf cub on the street. Anyone who touched it would have to bite it. But now the owner suddenly appeared, the little wolf cub instantly turned into a puppy, and he was hugged and returned. To wag the tail.
Wen Jianing hugged Lu Jinlang and said in his ear, "What should I do? I don't want to be checked."
Lu Jinlang carried him into the car he was in when he came. After he got in the car, he found that the driver was Lu Yunan. Wen Jianing felt relieved for a moment.
Cao Songquan chased after him.
Lu Jinlang thanked Cao Songquan, and then said, "I'll take him to the doctor first, and then continue with Director Cao."
Cao Songquan didn't want to delay them, so he quickly said, "Go quickly."
After closing the door, Lu Yunan immediately started the car.
Wen Jianing asked, "Where are we going?"
Lu Jinlang said, "I have already contacted the doctor for a private hospital, so don't be nervous."
Wen Jianing said, "But..."
"Listen," Lu Jinlang said to him, "you can't live without getting sick and hurt, and you can't stay in the hospital. What you need is to find a doctor you can trust, understand?"
Wen Jianing subconsciously glanced at Lu Yunan who was driving in front of him, but Lu Yunan didn't seem to hear it and didn't react at all.
He didn't know what to do, but felt that Lu Jinlang was right, he now needs to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination.
Lu Jinlang stretched out his hand to peel off his blanket, and felt that the clothes inside were still wet. He had been in this state for about a few hours, and he was bored even when he was not sick.
So without hesitation, he reached out to help him undress, and then said to Lu Yunan, "Yunan, find a place to buy a set of clean clothes first."
Lu Yunan stopped the car on the side of the road for a while, and went back to buy a set of clothes at a very fast speed.
Lu Jinlang helped Wen Jianing change his clothes in the car.
When taking off his pants, Wen Jianing moved to the back of the chair, making sure that Lu Yunan could not see the direction, so he asked Lu Jinlang to help him take off his pants.
Lu Jinlang then saw that the injury on his knee was red and swollen, and it seemed to be worse than before.
Wen Jianing looked at Lu Jinlang, he felt that he could finally calm down at this time, he said, "Did I just go crazy?"
Lu Jinlang reached out and touched his head. His hair had already been dried by the sea breeze.
Wen Jianing said, "Fortunately, I have you."
Lu Jinlang said, "You take it too seriously."
In fact, he didn't need to be so nervous, he was so nervous that Cao Songquan and others who saw him at the time felt something was wrong.
Wen Jianing shook his head, "I have no choice."
I thought so much before that for a moment he even thought about finding a place in a foreign country where no one would know him, and dying quietly in a vast forest, so that no one would ever find out about him. It's secret.
But now staying by Lu Jinlang's side, he felt that his previous thoughts were a bit funny, why would he be so desperate that he wanted to die.
Lu Jinlang said to him: "The doctor is my friend, I asked him to come by plane and contacted the private hospital here through his relationship, he will check for you in person, and you can go to him if you feel unwell in the future. He is a good doctor who is absolutely serious and responsible to his patients."
Wen Jianing understood what he meant, and after a long silence, he finally nodded.
