Qiao Wen and Lin Zirui and his party left by boat at eight o'clock and arrived at the Macau Ferry Terminal at the beginning of nine o'clock, which is exactly when the wonderful night life of this small city of the night begins.

They first went to the hotel where the crew was staying.

Nowadays, the movie business to make money fast, a small martial arts line income is far more than the ordinary working people, plus it is really hard money, most of the money will be used in the leisure time to eat, drink and have fun. Tonight the crew did not have a night play, most people go out to have fun, only Li Xing Chen routinely stay in the room to read the script.

Big stars are strict with themselves, always worried that the paparazzi photographed a little bit of bad things, and then after the exaggerated artistic processing, it becomes a real negative, usually close the work rarely go out with people.

Seeing Qiao Wen and Lin Zi Rui at the door, Li Xing Chen was surprised, "Wen, you're here?"

Jovian asked, "Where's Nan?"

Starry Lee said, "He's been at the casino for the last couple of days at closing time, and he should be tonight as well."

"Do you know which room he's in? I'm going to find him now."

Li Xingchen nodded, "He's been in the same room lately." After thinking about it, he added, "Wait a moment, I'll take you there."

He went back to the house and changed into clothes for going out, put on a baseball cap and black mask, and went out with a few people outside. It was said to be a few people, but in fact there were only four, Qiao Wen brought along Howie who acted as a bodyguard, and Lin Zi Rui also only had a bodyguard with an unfamiliar face.

Howie followed beside Qiao Wen and said worriedly, "My brother wouldn't really gamble every day, would he? My eldest uncle was furious when he saw the newspaper."

Jovian said with a sullen face, "Let's find the people first."

Seeing that both of them didn't look too good, Lin Zi Rui softly soothed, "Ah Wen, don't worry, if it's really my uncle who brought down Ah Nan, I'll find a way to make my uncle go back earlier. Speaking of which, I'm really sorry."

Qiao Wen laughed helplessly, "He's in his twenties, he's not a child, how can he say he's being brought down."

Howie nodded his head vigorously, "That's right, my brother was supposed to be a badass."

Jovian: "......" is not without its faults.

Under the guidance of Li Xing Chen, the lead party, they quickly searched for Chen Canaan's figure in the glittering high-end casino. He was wearing a suit, sitting in the center of a gambling table, and the several gamblers beside him were also dressed in suits, thinking that they were all people with money and status.

One of them was none other than Kevin Chung.

However, regardless of their status, in the piles of weights coming and going and interchanging, these people all seem to be killing red eyes at the moment.

When Howie saw Chen Canaan's figure, he immediately wanted to push his sleeves up and go forward, but was pulled back by Qiao Wen, "Don't be impulsive."

He and Lin Zi Rui exchanged a glance, the two of them walked over without haste, each standing behind their own people. Qiao Wen reached out and put his hand on Chen Canaan's shoulder, the other man stared straight at the action of the dealer dealing the cards with both eyes, and without lifting his head, he brushed his hand away, "Haven't seen me being busy, don't disturb me!"

Qiaowen's hand was opened, and before he could react, Howie couldn't help himself and stepped forward and said angrily, "Brother, what the hell are you doing?"

Only then did Chen Canaan raise his head like an afterthought, and when he met Qiao Wen beside him, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he stammered, "Xiao Qiao, why are you here?"

Jovian smiled skin-deep and said, "I came to see how you were playing."

"Not bad." Chen Canaan snapped, swept his eyes at the table, cleared his throat, and said, "Xiao Qiao, you go back to the hotel first, I'll go back right after I finish this game."

Howie said indignantly, "Brother!"

Jovian made a stop sign at him and softly said, "It's okay, I'll wait here for you to finish the game."

Kevin Chung over there also sensed his nephew's arrival and said in surprise, "Jeffrey, you're here too?"

Lin Zi Rui said, "Uncle has been in Macau for more than a week and is simply enjoying himself, so I came over to see what all the fun is about."

Zhong Kevin hemmed and hawed, "I'm telling you, I've had a particularly good hand these past few days and won a small few million dollars."

Lin Zi Rui laughed, "Really?"

Zhong Kevin nodded, "It's all because of Nan, otherwise I wouldn't have won so much."

Lin Zi Rui said, "Uncle go back even after this game, I have something to say to you."

Zhong Kevin nodded repeatedly, "OK, OK, OK."

Stud playing quickly, but ten minutes, a game will end, Chen Canaan and Zhong Kevin each won a lot of chips, instructed the staff to go to change money, a group of people out of the casino.

And Kevin Chung and Canaan Chen clearly couldn't get enough of it.

Compared to the noisy casino, the outdoor area at night is unusually peaceful. Howie saw his brother's bad appearance, finally was unable to hold back, said angrily: "Brother, do you know that you gamble every day in Macau, a loss of millions of things, all of Hong Kong City know, uncle saw the newspaper will be angry with you."

Chen Canaan waved his hand uncaringly, "I just have nothing to do after work, I'm just looking for some fun, what's there to be nervous about. Hong Kong city newspapers love to write nonsense, how can I, Pretty Boy Nan, lose so much money?"

Kevin Zhong helped out, "That's right, I can testify that these days Anan has been losing less and winning more, and even I have been winning a lot along with him. Go go go, since Jeffrey Arvin and you guys are here, let's all go have a drink."

Qiao Wen said, "Drinking is not necessary, I have something to say to Nan."

Chen Canaan smiled and took his shoulder: "Words can be said at any time, tonight's hand is good, first go to have a drink, Xiao Qiao you can't drink, just eat some late-night snacks, Macao's late-night snacks are very good."

Howie peeled his hand away and said in a rush, "Brother, we didn't come to find you for a drink and a late night snack, we came to talk to you about gambling."

Chen Canaan was obviously impatient, pushed his cousin and said in a vicious voice: "Bad boy, it's not your turn to care whether I gamble or not!"

Jovian said, "What about me?"

Chen Canaan averted his gaze and said, "I'm just working too hard to amuse myself, there's a measure."

"You really have a sense of proportion?" Qiao Wen said coldly, "What can and cannot be touched, don't you know?"

"I told you it's just a pastime, I know all these things in the casino, even if I can't win any money, that won't make the casino make much out of my pocket. Besides," he said, as if suddenly justifying himself, "I work so hard every day that I have to get hurt every three days, so what's wrong with coming to the casino to relax?"

"Yeah, yeah," chimed in Kevin Chung, "Minami is just having fun, why do you guys have to take it too seriously."

"Uncle ......," Lin Zirui said.

Howie said angrily, "Brother, I think Uncle is right, you are a bad person, you used to be able to control yourself when you had no money, but now that you have money, you start to learn how to be bad. Brother Ah Man, go back and freeze his account, let's see what he'll do."

"On what grounds?" Chen Canaan sniffed and became angry as well, "What right do you have to freeze my hard-earned money?"

"Brother Nan, you are not a child, I do not have the right you to control your money, and I can't control whether you gamble or not, but you know that I dislike these vices the most. If you continue to gamble, we'll have to settle the score when we get back."

Chen Canaan snorted, "Xiao Qiao, you sit in the office every day, drinking coffee and looking at the newspaper, so you can wait for the box office to come in, never really caring about how hard it is for us people to shoot outside. Now that I'm using the hard-earned money I've made for my own amusement, are you going to settle accounts with me and split the family?"

"Nan," Li Xingchen, who had been silently following alongside, also finally couldn't help but speak up, "Wen is doing this for your own good, and he's also working very hard."

Chen Canaan suddenly exploded and said angrily, "Yes, he is doing it for my own good, I have to go through him to spend my hard-earned money for a pastime. Everything that I, Pretty Boy Nan, have gotten now, is because of him, so I have to listen to him for everything, as if without him, I, Pretty Boy Nan, would have to be a lousy kid,"

"Brother!" Howie's eyes turned red with anxiety, "How could you say such a thing? Without Ah Wen, would our family be able to live the way we do now? Why have you become like this? I think you're really a white-eyed wolf with a rotten heart and lungs, it's for nothing that Brother Ah Wen treats you so well."

"Yeah, Nan, don't be mad!"

Qiaowen smiled sarcastically, "He's not speaking in anger, he's speaking from his heart."

Chen Canaan averted her face, gambling and generally not looking at him.

Qiaowen nodded, "Fine, count me as nosy, I won't interfere anymore with what you do."

After saying that, he folded his body to go, Chen Canaan did not stop, but Lin Zi Rui went forward to pull his arm: "Ah Wen, have a good conversation, don't gamble."

Chen Canaan's eyes slanted at this time, his gaze fell on the two men's hands, sneeringly spoke: "Xiao Qiao, don't think I don't know, this time I'm not in Hong Kong City, what have you and this young master Lin done, watching plays and listening to concerts to go to the reading salon, and finally found a confidant with similar interests, don't have to stay with this big old man of mine every day, very happy, right? "

Lin Zi Rui's brows furrowed slightly.

Jovian said, "Yes, I do like these things, is it hard to get me to come and gamble with you?"

Chen Canaan said, "Aren't you just looking down on me? Finally tell the truth."

"Nan!" Li Xingchen pulled him back nervously, regretting that he had become this bandwagon.

On the contrary, it is Ho Chai who is so righteous that he arches his fire, "You even want to read the newspaper, and now you are addicted to gambling, not to mention Brother Man, I don't even look down on you!"

Chen Canaan's brows twisted ferociously as she stepped forward and kicked him severely, "Servant Street, who are you talking to like that?"

Li Xingchen cried out softly in fear, "Nan, how could you do it?"

Poor Howie was kicked over by him and howled in pain, instantly about to cry out, Qiao Wen hurriedly helped the man up, "Howie, are you alright?"

Howie rubbed his ass and cried, "It's okay, my brother's crazy, let's leave him alone and go back!"

Qiaowen coldly looked at Chen Canaan, and then softly said to Lin Zirui, "Jeffrey, Howie and I will take the boat back soon, are you going back tonight?"

Lin Zirui nodded, "I'll join you." He also said to Zhong Kaiwen, "Uncle, look what you've done."

Kevin Chung was confused, "No, what happened to me?"

"Forget it," Lin Zi Rui said, "I'll go back first, come back early when you've had enough fun, I have something to tell you, the company still has things waiting for you to do."

Zhong Kaiwen: "Okay, I'll go back in a couple days." He also wrapped his arms around the angry and grumbling Chen Canaan, "Anan, don't be angry, let's go for a drink."

Chen Canaan silently looked at the departing backs of several people and nodded.

After boarding the boat for the return trip, Howie rubbed his calf that was kicked by Chen Canaan, and couldn't help but feel sad, saying, "Brother Man, they say that people who gamble have six relatives, I think my brother is almost the same. How many years has it been since he laid his hands on me like this, my leg is swollen from his kicks."

Jovian looked at his calf and said, "Does it hurt?"

"Not really, it's just hard on the heart."

Lin Zirui, who was on the side, sighed and said, "I didn't expect Nan to be so grumpy."

Howie nodded, "He doesn't have a great temper, but I didn't think he would lose his temper with Brother Man."

Jovian laughed bitterly, "Jeffrey, I'm making you laugh."

Lin Zirui shook his head, "Are you okay?"

Qiaowen shook his head, "What can I do, I just didn't realize that Nan he has always been resentful towards me in his heart."

Good in concurring, "I also did not expect, without Brother Ah Wen where is his beautiful son Nan now, he even still have a problem with you, I think he really drifted."

The boat started and Jovian said, "I'm going out to blow off some steam."

Howie was worried, "Brother Man, don't be sad, even though he's my own brother, I'll always be on your side."

"Thanks." Jovian chuckled softly as he rubbed his head.

He went outside to the deck and leaned against the railing, letting the cool night breeze ruffle his hair as he stared darkly at the fading city of the night.

"It's really okay?" Lin Zirui asked as he walked over.

Jovian breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head with a soft smile, "It's fine."

Lin Zi Rui said, "Pro-brothers still quarrel, don't take it to heart."

Jovian nodded, "I just kind of didn't realize that he turned out to have a grudge against me as well, I thought we didn't need to take that between us."

Lin Zi Rui was silent for a moment and said, "I can understand your feelings, after all, you're not just partners, but true companions."

Jovian was slightly stunned, then laughed, "You knew? I thought no one could tell, not even Howie."

Lin Zirui laughed, "Of course, because I'm just like you guys."

"Hmm?" Jovian looked at him uncertainly.

Lin Zi Rui looked into his eyes and said seriously, word for word: "Because I'm in the same category as you guys."
