Chapter 59: Stealing 1,000 Yuan

He was quite lucky today, winning one hundred yuan right away.

Su Peng thought his terrible luck of the past few days was finally over.

However, by the time the game ended at nightfall, Su Peng had lost that hundred yuan, along with the five hundred yuan he had previously lost.

Su Peng couldn’t maintain his forced smile anymore; his face was stiff and ugly.

“Hey, Brother Peng, don’t get upset, don’t worry, try again tomorrow.”

“Let’s come again tomorrow.”

Su Peng didn’t say a word, directly kicked over his chair and left.

Su Peng went home with a gloomy face. Li Cuihua and Qi Xiuer were fighting again. As soon as he entered, they started complaining behind him, but Su Peng went straight into his room and slammed the door shut.

Qi Xiuer wanted to use her manipulative and deceitful words, but she noticed Su Peng’s expression was wrong. Before she could ask what was wrong,

Su Peng pounced on her and pinned her to the bed.

A ripping sound.

Qi Xiuer was stunned, frowned slightly, then stopped struggling.

“Brother Peng”

Su Peng remained silent, treating Qi Xiuer like a worn-out tool.

Li Cuihua heard the noise outside and spat before leaving.

“Vixen.”

“Slutty vixen, she’s going to drain his son dry.”

“Shameless thing.”

“Let’s see how I deal with her tomorrow.”

At this moment, Qi Xiuer was already regretting marrying Su Peng.

In the days after the wedding, Su Ai hadn’t come once, Su Peng was never home, and his mother was causing trouble every day.

Qi Xiuer had a bad feeling.

She impatiently dealt with Su Peng. Finally, when Su Peng calmed down, Qi Xiuer said softly: “Brother Peng, what’s wrong?”

Su Peng felt a little guilty hearing his wife’s gentle voice.

“Sorry, I’m not in a good mood.”

“It’s okay.”

“Brother Peng, tell me what’s bothering you, okay? I’ll help you.”

Su Peng opened his mouth but didn’t say anything.

He simply hugged Qi Xiuer: “Xiaoxiu, you love me, right?”

“Of course.”

“Are you willing to do anything for me?”

Qi Xiuer’s heart sank, but she remained calm on the surface: “Of course.”

Su Peng lowered his head, staring at Qi Xiuer: “Then give me the thousand yuan I gave you before, okay?”

“My sister has a business and wants us to participate, asking me to invest some money.”

“You know what our parents are like. If we ask them for money, we’ll have to share some with them later. If we invest our own money now, whatever we earn will be ours.”

“The money?”

Qi Xiuer looked at Su Peng’s bloodshot eyes and slightly crazed expression, and her heart sank.

Su Peng’s state was very wrong.

And his clumsy lie, his nonsense, she wouldn’t believe it even if she were a ghost.

“Husband, I told you before, my parents didn’t let me bring back the money, saying they would keep it for my younger brother’s wedding, they didn’t give me a cent.”

“I’m sorry, husband.”

Su Peng turned over and straddled Qi Xiuer, grabbing her neck.

“I’ll ask you again, where’s the money?”

Tears welled up in Qi Xiuer’s big eyes; she struggled to shake her head at Su Peng, indicating she really didn’t have the money.

“You keep saying you love me, but you’re not willing to give me this little money.”

“Bitch!” Su Peng slapped Qi Xiuer in the face.

Qi Xiuer didn’t expect Su Peng to actually hit her.

She immediately struggled with her hands and feet, her anger rising.

“Bastard, dog!”

“You’re a money-grubbing bitch, pretending to be virtuous while being a slut, don’t think I don’t know what you are.”

“My dad told me, your parents are good to you, your betrothal money, they definitely didn’t take it, they definitely gave it to you.”

“Lying to me?”

“Mm?”

Su Peng slapped Qi Xiuer twice hard across the face.

The blows made Qi Xiuer’s head buzz, and she felt terrible.

Her eyes blazed at Su Peng, but due to the difference in strength between men and women, she couldn’t struggle.

Useless, cheap man, damn idiot, dare to hit her?

Qi Xiuer wished she had a knife to kill Su Peng.

However, Su Peng’s tightening grip made it hard for her to breathe, her cheeks turning red.

Qi Xiuer frantically slapped Su Peng’s arms.

Only then did Su Peng release her.

Qi Xiuer supported her neck, coughing violently and gasping for breath.

Su Peng grabbed the mosquito net cord and tied Qi Xiuer to the head of the bed.

“Su Peng, let me go!”

Qi Xiuer couldn’t believe that after carefully choosing, she had chosen a man who would hit her.

“Let me go!”

Su Peng grabbed her clothes and stuffed them into Qi Xiuer’s mouth, silencing her.

“You definitely brought the money.”

“You wouldn’t trust your parents with it, you were afraid they’d use it for your brother’s wedding, so you must have kept it yourself.”

“If you don’t give it to me, I’ll find it myself.”

Su Peng started rummaging through the room. Qi Xiuer couldn’t speak with her mouth full, only making muffled sounds.

But no one paid attention.

Su Peng turned the entire room upside down.

His things, and Qi Xiuer’s things.

Finally, in the compartment of Qi Xiuer’s dressing table, he found the one thousand yuan.

Su Peng was overjoyed.

“Haha, I knew it.”

“I knew you definitely brought it.”

“Xiaoxiu’er, don’t worry, I won’t be unlucky forever, I’ll definitely make a lot of money.”

“I’ll definitely make a lot of money.”

“I’ll pay you back then.”

“Don’t worry.”

Su Peng kissed Xiaoxiu’s face and ran out with the money.

He had gone mad, possessed by gambling.

He didn’t care anymore, he couldn’t wait until tomorrow; he needed to win back his money immediately.

Qi Xiuer’s eyes were filled with tears as she watched Su Peng run away with her money, tears streaming down her face.

Marrying such an idiot, she hadn’t even thought of crying.

But that money.

That money…

It hurt more than killing her.

Scum! Useless!

Dog man!

Qi Xiuer struggled desperately but couldn’t break free from the ropes. Finally, she managed to spit out the cloth from her mouth and shouted.

“Help! Someone, help!”

Li Cuihua heard it first and started cursing: “Are you summoning ghosts? What are you yelling for?”

But her scolding stopped when she saw Qi Xiuer’s situation.

“This…”

“Old hag, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and untie me!”

“Your son stole my one thousand yuan to play cards! To gamble!”

“Hurry up and find him.”

“It’ll all be gone if you’re too late.”

Qi Xiuer wasn’t a naive girl.

Seeing Su Peng’s desperate gambling and his talk of good luck to win it back, it was clearly gambling.
