Li Du, as an onlooker, felt suspicious and confused listening to the three men arguing. What is happening? What happened between these three?

The accusation of cheating made Lu Dayou angry. He stood up and ruthlessly stared at Master Dao, “Hey, Liu. What do you mean by this? Who are you to call me a cheater?”

Master Dao sneered, “Wouldn’t the cheater know who he was?”

He came up, slapped the table and said to Li Du, “Young man, open your eyes and hide your wallet. Don’t let others cheat you out of your money!”

Lu Dayou reached out his hand to grasp Master Dao’s collar. “Shut up, Liu. What have you been smoking? Why are you talking nonsense?”

Master Dao did not struggle. He merely smiled and looked at his adversary. “I’m talking nonsense? Why are you so angry because of my silly words, then? Could it be that they are true?”

Lu Dayou hummed coldly and let go of him. “You are mad. Why are you accusing me when I have not provoked you? What do you mean by that?”

Master Dao said, “I’m not mad. I’m merely tired of this business.”

Customers in the teahouse were sitting on long benches. Master Dao said as he squeezed in beside Li Du, “Sit down and let’s chat.”

Malanian shook his head and said, “You do that without me, I’m not going to join in.”

Master Dao smiled. “Why not? Are you afraid more people will expose your tricks? It’s okay, I won’t say anything, go on. I would want to see how you work.”

When he said this, Malanian got angry and said, “What are you talking about?”

“Do you problems in comprehension? Or are you deaf? I thought I was speaking plain enough.”

Lu Dayou hummed and said, “Watch your mouth. If it gets dirty, don’t be surprised if someone washes it out for you!”

He told Li Du, “Be careful, Brother Su. Our Master Dao likes to drink a little when he is off, and sometimes he will even inject himself. So he has some sickness now, what’s the name of it? It’s called TV? HV? IV?”

Malanian was stunned and said, “HIV? Is it HIV?”

Lu Dayou made an expression of sudden enlightenment. “Right, right, that’s it, HIV.”

Listening to him say that, Li Du was shocked and subconsciously moved to the side.

HIV was no joke. Although body fluids needed to be exchanged for the disease to spread, and theoretically it was not that contagious, it was an incurable disease with terrifying consequences.

What Lu Dayou wanted to see was precisely Li Du’s reaction. He laughed and said, “Look, Master Dao, he is afraid of you. Why did you go and sit beside him? Take this empty seat here.”

Master Dao smiled and said, “No, that seat is for someone else.”

As he spoke, he beckoned to the door. “Come, Xiao Liao, come and sit here.”

The crowd looked at the door and a tall, angry young man walked in.

At the sight of the young man, Lu Dayou’s and Malanian’s expressions changed. The latter said directly, “You are all Chinese. I, as a Burmese, would excuse myself from this…”

Master Dao pulled on his arm. “No, don’t leave. If you leave, how would your Brother Dalu steal the money himself? Right, Dalu?”

Lu Dayou hummed, “F**k off!”

With that, he picked up his satchel and wanted to leave.

The young Xiao Liao grabbed him, gritted his teeth and said, “Brother Lu, you can’t leave. You have to give me an explanation. Isn’t the stone that you sold to me supposed to be Emperor Green? Why did it fall apart when I asked someone to cut it?”

Lu Dayou said, “What are you talking about? I don’t know what you mean.”

Xiao Liao said angrily, “You don’t know what I’m talking about? This is the piece of material I bought from this gentleman Malanian. You told me that this was a good Emperor Green. Why did it collapse?”

‘Collapse’ was another term used in the jadeite industry. Jade is hidden in the stone, and one would have to cut it to expose the jade. It was also possible that there was no jade in the stone, so the stone would ‘collapse’.

Malanian said disdainfully, “I had warned you it might collapse, don’t you understand this? Betting on stones is like that, you don’t necessarily win. Would the best stones fall into your hands that easily? You idiot!”

Xiao Liao was angry and wanted to punch Malanian.

Malanian was not afraid, and said, “Hit me, here you go. There are police outside, do you think they will shoot you if I shout?”

Master Dao waved and said, “Xiao Liao, sit down. It’s not good to act rashly. Come, let’s all sit down. Brother Dalu, let’s discuss the matter and solve it nicely.”

Lu Dayou said, “What’s to solve? I’m leaving.”

After he said this, Master Dao, who looked thin and weak, stood up. He grabbed Lu Dayou’s shoulder in a split second and pressed him down on the table. At the same time, he pulled out a needle from his waist and placed it near Lu Dayou’s face.

With a cheeky smile on his face, he said, “Leave? Where are you going? Look, this is the blood I just siphoned out of my vein. If, as you say, I have HIV, you know what will happen if this blood goes into your body.”

Lu Dayou was frightened and screamed, “F**k, don’t do anything!”

Li Du stood up and took a few steps back. He did not expect that this man, like him, would carry a syringe with him everywhere.

Master Dao smiled and said, “I can stop, but how about the compensation?”

Lu Dayou hurriedly said, “I’ll pay, I’ll pay, how do you want me to do that?”

Xiao Liao cried, “I spent 1.2 million yuan to buy that stone, money I need to get married and buy a house. I want it back!”

Lu Dayou said, “I only got half of that sum. How can I give you the full amount?”

Xiao Liao looked at Lu Dayou, while Malanian sneered and said, “You fool, you ruined my good business. I’ll find you next time!”

And he walked out as he spoke.

Xiao Liao wanted to stop him again, but Master Dao shook his head and said, “No, there’s nothing we can do.”

Malanian raised his finger and said, “It’s good that you know this.”

Master Dao took Lu Dayou’s sachet and threw it to Xiao Liao.

Xiao Liao searched the sachet, which contained the 15,000 dollars that Li Du paid earlier and six yellow coated stones that were similar to what he sold to Li Du.

“It’s only $15,000, not half a million,” said Xiao Liao with frustration.

Master Dao asked, “Brother Dalu, now what shall we do?”

Lu Dayou cried, “What can I do? You know I like to gamble and I paid my debt to the casino with that money…”

Master Dao looked at the stone on the table. He thought for a few seconds, then motioned Xiao Liao to press Lu Dayou to the table. Then he took out a magnifying glass and examined the stones under a strong flashlight.
