Chapter 353: Chapter 353: A Dog Can’t Change Its Habit of Eating Poop

Ding Lijuan looked confused, "What do you mean by that?"

Han Jingting said, "This money was clearly won by Chen Xuan, so it should be given to Chen Xuan, right?"

Ding Lijuan said matter-of-factly, "Anyway, it’s all our family’s money, so it’s all the same who gets it. Besides, both of you run big companies now, so you’re hardly in need of this little amount of money!"

Han Jingting was speechless.

When Chen Xuan had said he wanted to compete with Wong Kui, her mother had specifically disassociated herself, telling others that Chen Xuan’s win or loss had nothing to do with her.

But now that Chen Xuan had won, she actually wanted to covet this money, which was simply unreasonable!

Han Jingting was annoyed and wanted to continue reasoning with Ding Lijuan, but Chen Xuan stopped her.

"Forget it, mom just got out of the hospital a few days ago. Let’s just consider this money as our filial tribute to her!"

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise appeared on Ding Lijuan’s face.

"Not bad, Chen Xuan now even knows how to honor the elderly! That’s really good!"

Having said that, Ding Lijuan even gave Chen Xuan a thumbs-up.

This scene was bizarre; if she remembered correctly, in all these years, this might be the first time Ding Lijuan had praised Chen Xuan.

Han Jingting was baffled by Chen Xuan’s reaction.

This was five million we’re talking about, definitely not a small sum.

According to Chen Xuan’s previous temper, shouldn’t he be the one to confront his mother about it? Why would he give the money away directly?

In fact, what Han Jingting didn’t know was that Chen Xuan had already accumulated a fortune worth tens of billions.

A mere five million was nothing to him.

Moreover, Chen Xuan had already said that he did not want Han Jingting’s relationship with her parents to completely break down; he wanted to alleviate the tension between them.

It was obvious by now that Ding Lijuan had set her sights on the five million. If Han Jingting insisted on claiming the money, it would surely lead to another conflict between mother and daughter.

That was precisely why Chen Xuan had made such a decision.

With the money in hand, Ding Lijuan was overjoyed.

The twenty million they had previously received were almost spent in these couple of days; the five million arrived just in time!

Ding Liang and Guo Yueling were also secretly pleased.

With Ding Lijuan having money, it meant that they had money to squander.

This time, it seemed they had found fortune through misfortune!

However, just as the three of them were happy and ready to drive away, Ding Lijuan’s phone suddenly rang.

"That damn bastard, he still knows how to make a call!" Ding Lijuan got furious the moment she saw Han Bowwen’s name, her anger bursting forth.

Earlier in the day, Han Bowwen had gone to the underground casino to gamble. When Ding Liang had been in trouble, Ding Lijuan had immediately called him, but no one had answered.

Now that everything had already been resolved, Han Bowwen was calling, which made Ding Lijuan even more infuriated!

"Calling now, why don’t you just die out there!" As soon as Ding Lijuan connected the call, she let loose a stream of curses without hesitation.

What Ding Lijuan didn’t expect was that a stranger’s voice came from the other end of the line.

"Well, you better think of something fast, or your husband really will die out there!"

Ding Lijuan was scared stiff and asked in a trembling voice, "Who... who are you? What do you mean by that?"

"You don’t need to know who I am. Your husband has lost money at our casino. Bring ten million to the casino within an hour to redeem him. If you’re late, get ready to collect your husband’s corpse!"

After saying that, the other party hung up the phone directly.

Ding Lijuan was so frightened that she fell onto the ground, and it took quite a while before she started crying and shouting, "A dog can’t change its habit of eating shit! Han Bowwen! You damned bastard, why don’t you just go die!"

No wonder Ding Lijuan was so angry; the last time Han Bowwen went to the Nanhu Vegas Casino, a similar incident had already occurred.

At that time, not only did Han Bowwen get one of his fingers cut off, but it also caused Han Jingting to lose that twenty-million-dollar check.

Unexpectedly, it wasn’t long before Han Bowwen had caused the same trouble again!

Han Jingting and Chen Xuan, who were not far away, heard Ding Lijuan’s crying and shouting and hurried over.

"Mom, what’s wrong with you? What happened?"

When Ding Lijuan saw Han Jingting, she instantly clung to her like a lifeline, hugging her legs, "Jingting, your dad is in trouble. You must save him!"

Han Jingting was shocked, "What? What exactly happened to my dad?"

Ding Lijuan was too ashamed to mention it again, but eventually, she steeled herself and spoke about how Han Bowwen had been detained once more because of gambling.

After listening to Ding Lijuan’s story, Han Jingting didn’t know what to say.

Last time, her father’s gambling had resulted in a severed finger; hadn’t the lesson been severe enough?

Han Jingting still clearly remembered how her father had sworn in front of them that he would never gamble again—yet, just a few short months later, the same incident had happened again.

This time even Han Jingting, as his daughter, was starting to feel angry!

But although she was angry, naturally, Han Jingting couldn’t just stand by and watch something happen to her own father.

In the end, Han Jingting had no choice but to agree to go with Ding Lijuan to the casino to rescue Han Bowwen.

Ding Liang and Guo Yueling, hearing that they would have to deal with the casino’s people, were somewhat reluctant to go; but at this time, they couldn’t say much either. After all, they were still counting on the five million from Ding Lijuan to splurge.

Finally, Ding Liang and Guo Yueling had no choice but to drive there as well.

Forty minutes later, Han Jingting and the others arrived at the entrance of the underground casino.

From a distance, they saw Han Bowwen being escorted out by seven or eight burly men.

This time Han Bowwen was luckier than last time; he didn’t have any visible injuries on his body, probably because he gave in right away.

"Dad!" Han Jingting shouted anxiously.

"Jingting! Lijuan!" Han Bowwen started crying and tried to run towards them but was stopped by a burly man.

This burly man, known as Brother Zhu, was the person in charge and the enforcer of the casino.

"Did you bring the money?" Brother Zhu asked.

"Yes, yes, money! Jingting, give them the money!" Ding Lijuan urged.

Han Jingting: "Mom, didn’t I tell you earlier that I don’t have much money in my card at all."

Chen Xuan thought of something, "Didn’t we just win five million?"

Han Jingting suddenly realized, "Yes, mom, the five million—quickly take it out!"

Ding Lijuan suddenly became reluctant, "What, I have to pay the money again..."

Han Jingting was completely speechless.

At this point in time, her own mother was actually reluctant to part with the money!

Moreover, the money wasn’t even hers to begin with!

Guo Yueling also muttered on the side, "Yeah, Jingting, I think you might as well pay the money..."
