If it was a few days ago, someone told Liu Zixing that he would become nothing and everyone would betray him, then he would not believe anything. However, the reality had manifested in this way.
The Liu Familyâs property no longer belonged to him. There was no place for him, even in the company. His mother, Liu Shi, was even so unrelenting that the companyâs security guards drove him away.
But even so, Liu Zixing, who was in a desperate situation, was not in despair. At least, he would get a considerable sum of money from Professor Trevor.
He initially thought that at least the wealth he still possessed would not make his life worse. He thought that maybe after a while, his mother would still care about his son.
She just felt so disappointed in him, wanting to teach him a deep lesson. It must be so. When his suffering was almost over, his mother would forgive him â just like the past. No matter how many wrong things he did, he would always be forgiven.
Why would she not forgive me? My mother has only one son.
This must be the case.
âSorry, sir, the money for this check canât be cashed.â
However, in the bankâs VIP room, the bank manager told Liu Zixing a cruel reality that directly broke all his fantasies, âMr. Liu, the account on this check has been frozen. We canât transfer any sum of money. Iâm sorry.â
The fact that he was kicked out of the company and even Liuâs Mansion had not been wholly spread outside. At least in this bank managerâs eyes, this gentleman was still a VIP customer of the bank.
âFreeze? How can it be frozen? This is impossible! When I received the check, I verified that the account is fine!â asked Liu Zixing in panic, like a drowning man who lost a lifesaver.
The bank manager frowned and said, âThis⦠Well, this account seems to have been frozen by a foreign court. I think the owner of this account may have committed a crime. Iâm sorry, Mr. Liu. I donât know about the details. After all, this is a foreign account. How about you ask the accountâs owner?â
Liu Zixing left the bank in despair, frantically dialing Professor Trevorâs number along the way. But, this number no longer existed.
There would be no way to find this old foreigner⦠He could not return to his familyâs Mansion too.
What to do? What to do� What should I do?
In front of the bankâs door, he suddenly felt that all the sights in front of him had become pitch black as if he was in a twisted mirror world.
What to do� What to do� What should I do?
Suddenly, Liu Zixing felt something touching his body. With this collision, his arm was directly grabbed.
âYou. What do you want!?â
âYoung Master Liu, come with us!â
âLet me go!â
He struggled and even tried to yell, but the opponent quickly covered his nose with a handkerchief that exuded a strange smell. Soon, Liu Zixing lost consciousness.
When Liu Zixing woke up⦠To be more precise, he was awakened by being splashed with cold water. He was in a cage less than one meter high at most eighty centimeters. Many cages surrounded him!
A pair of ferocious eyes were staring at him at the same time. They were vicious dogs with sharp teeth. He was being locked in a dog cage! This place was a dog breeding ground!
âYoung Master Liu, do you like this place?â In front of the cage, a bald man squatted down and wrecked the pillar of the dog cage with his palm, making a banging sound, âThis is something specially prepared for you. .â
âBrother Black Panther, letâs talk first, donât be rashed.â Liu Zixing begged.
He knew who this person was. One of the thugs of the underground casino owner whom he owed money. These days, due to family affairs, Liu Zixing completely forgot that he still owed a huge sum of money to this casino.
âYoung Master Liu, the date you gave us last time has long passed. The money you promised to return to us, shouldnât you return to us?â
âPlease give me a little more time. I will be able to get the money. Black Panther, let me out first. Itâs scary here!â
He was almost 180 cm tall. It was uncomfortable to be locked in such a narrow dog cage. He had stayed there for a long time when he was unconscious. The blood flow in his body was poorly disrupted. Not to mention, he was treated like a dog in this place.
âOur boss is already giving you a leeway.â Brother Black Panther snorted coldly at this time, lifting his leg and kicking it on the dog cage.
The impact was great, and a loud noise was made, which immediately alarmed the detained dogs!
These terrified dogs roared frantically at this time. Their barks were chaotic; they sounded like a soul-reaping bell. Liu Zixingâs face turned pale, and his body trembled. He was so scared that he had to cover his ears with his hands.
After Black Panther clapped, these vicious dogs stopped roaring. They squatted down but still stared at Liu Zixing.
âYoung Master Liu, I donât want to trouble you either. As long as you pay the money, I even have no problem sending you out.â
âI donât have them now.â Liu Zixing didnât even dare to look into the bald manâs eyes.
âMaster Liu, your company, has inherited so much inheritance from your parents. Isnât it a big joke that you have no money left?â Brother Black Panther sneered, âPerhaps, you have a special hobby and like to be kept in a dog cage. No problem, I will let these little pets entertain you well. I promise you will have a fun time!â
âDonât do this, Brother Black Panther. I mean it. I have no money.â Liu Zixing said in pain.
âBring the phone!â Brother Black Panther snorted coldly, calling underling outside the door to fetch the phone. He dialed it in front of Liu Zixing.
The bald Black Panther looked at Liu Zixing. After the call was connected, he said without hesitation, âIs this the Liu Family Mansion? Who am I? Who are you? Ah⦠Mrs. Liu. Nice to see youâ¦â
He called the Liu Family directly. Liu Zixing suddenly heard a faint voice from the phone. It was his motherâs voice.
Liu Zixing watched all this happen in horror. Would his mother save him?
His heart was beating, and his breathing became rapid. Brother Black Panther even turned on the hands-free on purpose.
âLiu Zixing? I donât have this son. We have already severed the relationship. Listen carefully. I donât care who you are and whether he is in your hands or not. It doesnât matter to me if you cut off his fingers and ears, even if you chopped him up to feed the dog. But, if you are bold enough to find trouble in my family, Iâm no coward either!â
Mother. Is this you? Is this your voice? Is this real?
Liu Zixing trembled as his body became cold.
The phone was hung up instantly. Brother Black Panther narrowed his eyes at this time. His gazes turned vicious, too, staring at Liu Zixing silently!
âBrother, his mother seems to be telling the truth. Did she sever the relationship?â
âSever their relationship?â Brother Black Panther sneered, âAre you dumb? When you go home, even if your mother is scolding desperately, will she let you die?â
This underling shrugged, indicating no.
Brother Black Panther snorted coldly at this time, âI donât think anyone will abandon their son⦠Cut off one of this guyâs ears and send it home! We will wait and see if she will be indifferent!â
âOkay!â Underling was obviously already familiar with the procedure.
Brother Black Panther walked out, and then two people walked in. One of them was holding a box cutter. The box cutterâs sharp blade was pushed out one segment by another in front of Liu Zixing. The duo approached Liu Zixing slowly.
âDonât come over! Noâ¦Â Ah!!!â
The harsh screams once again made the dogs in the dog breeding ground cheered in unison. Afterward, the underlings stored one of the bloody ears. They briefly stopped Liu Zixingâs bleeding and then left the room.
They turned off the incandescent light here but turned on another dark red light as if thick blood lingered in the air, and the dog kept barking.
Liu Zixingâs sanity had all collapsed; he was in horror. The pain from the ear wound, the fear of the surrounding environment⦠and the despair in his heart. In the end, he finally took out something that was hidden inside his body.
A black cardâ¦
The line of sight in front of him suddenly changed. He became relaxed in an instant; he came to a quiet and comfortable environment. As compared to the terrifying dog breeding ground he was trapped in, it was a stark contrast between hell and heaven.
This place seems like heaven.
In front of him, the boss he had met once stood up, slowly bent over towards him. His respectful appearance made Liu Zixing once again feel that he was still the Liu Familyâs young master. He was receiving the treatment he deserved when he entered various places.
âWe meet again, Mr. Liuâ¦â Boss Luo said softly at this time, âI wonder if you need to buy something, dear customer?â
âSaveâ¦â Liu Zixing just opened up his mouth, and he stopped talking immediately.
It canât be that simple. This time, I need to think carefully and think clearly⦠think clearly about how to regain everything I have lost.
Do I have the chance to gain back everything from this mysterious place?
I donât know⦠But if I donât do it, then there is no chance. So, letâs take the final gamble!
âI want to gamble with you!â
