Betting on this thing is different from others.
It's not that you want to make up for it when you lose, it's that feeling after you win - your heart hangs in your throat, and all the blood in your body stops, just waiting for the card to be turned over. That feeling is better than anything else.
Ouyang Longzi tasted it once and couldn't quit it anymore.
He started gambling with 500 yuan, and he gambled until he lost his job, his girlfriend, and his parents' pension money. Bet that relatives and friends would walk around him, bet that his father would lie on the hospital bed and say to him, "You can't quit."
The night his dad left, he was placing bets. The phone rang four times and he didn't answer.
Later, he fled to the mountains, guarding an empty room, a notebook, and a line of crooked writing.
Everyone said he couldn't quit. He believed it too.
But this time, he wanted to win it back—not money, but his life.
Reader comments
This is the first time I have read a novel with gambling as the theme. The writing style is extremely realistic, abandoning deliberate sensationalism and unnecessary emotional exaggeration, and only uses an almost naked and straightforward narrative, but it directly touches people's hearts. In particular, it depicts the whole process from when the male protagonist Ouyang Longzi enters the gambling game, from dabbling in it, to becoming addicted step by step, and finally leading to betrayal and separation. The ups and downs are heart-breaking to watch, and it vividly shows the truth that gambling ruins life. I was deeply moved after reading it. It is not only a good-looking novel, but also a thought-provoking practical lesson. It is worth reading carefully!
The themes are realistic and always very poignant. The characters are three-dimensional and the plot is quite in-depth. It is worth reading.
The writing is strong and strong, very good
Not bad, let's see again.
Very good, the more I watch it, the more I like it.
The author just calmly tells a story about redemption, which makes it easier to move people.
When I watched the beginning, I was deeply touched by the sentence that the night his father left, he was placing a bet.
The protagonist is a bit miserable at the beginning. I hope he can work hard to get everything that belongs to him and change his destiny.
The author does not give an answer, but just unfolds the protagonist's struggle, but it can make people read a lot.
The process of the protagonist climbing out of the abyss, even if there is only a glimmer of light, is particularly powerful.
The author uses realistic writing methods to analyze the whole process of an ordinary person's failure, which is very powerful.
It seems pretty good so far, I hope it won't collapse in the future, come on, author!
This is what I've been looking for, so right.
At first glance, it feels very ordinary, but as long as you stick with it, you will find that it is indeed a rare and good book.
I love this kind of story about winning back myself more than those counterattack stories about pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.
This is a frustrated man struggling with his life in an empty mountain, which is particularly touching.
The author vividly writes about the hopeless situation, which makes me feel deeply when I read it.
Guarding a room in an empty mountain and slowly making peace with oneself, this kind of quiet healing is more touching than the vigorous redemption.
I came from a bookstore and I have to say that this book is really good and I must recommend it.
The author's writing style can hide a huge weight in the plain narrative, and the more you read, the more interesting it becomes.
The author's words are like the wind in the mountains, light and cold, but hiding hot emotions, and every sentence has a sense of picture.
Good review, I like this article very much and look forward to the follow-up.
The story is very realistic and has a strong sense of immersion. The writing style is simple and straightforward, making it easy for people to empathize.
This is not only a story about quitting gambling, but also a story about human nature, desire and redemption.
The writing is smooth and the reading experience is quite good. I can't give it five stars.
Every incident in the novel has a beginning and an end, and is resolved thoroughly without leaving the subject behind. It is very comfortable to read.
The protagonist's journey is very touching, and it's the kind of good story that people will recall over and over again.
It's wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. I watch it even at work [laughs]
Excellent work, I can see the author's seriousness, keep up the good work!
The plots are intertwined, grabbing your attention from the beginning, and you are still not satisfied until the end, which is very interesting.
