Gu Fei's eyes widened as she listened. "What happened?"
Manager Wang sighed. "Old Huang has a younger brother, a good-for-nothing loafer. When the two of them divided the family property years ago, the storefront next to Old Huang's was given to him."
"The man goes by the nickname Er Laizi. He's also a heavy gambler. In less than a year, he'd put that shop up as collateral and gambled it all away at the casino."
"Without the shop, Er Laizi had no source of income, so he started going to Old Huang for money every now and then."
"Old Huang paid off a lot of his gambling debts and even covered his daily food and drink. But who would have thought that one day, Er Laizi would steal Old Huang's property deed to go gambling again?"
"Fortunately, Old Huang found out. Furious, he gave his brother a harsh beating, then dragged him to the government office to have a document drawn up severing their family ties."
