Lin Shu was so anxious about this, but she didn't dare to show it in front of Huo Jinxi, so she hid in the kitchen secretly wiping her tears, but Huo Jinxi still saw her.
Huo Jinxi handed her a tissue, and Lin Shu took it and finally couldn't help crying.
"It's my fault..." Lin Shu said, "Why didn't I see the problem earlier? Your mother suffered this disaster for nothing... It's all my fault... If only I had been with her...
"
Hearing this, Huo Jinxi said in a deep voice: "Others started the layout more than a year ago. After taking my mother away, they didn't leave any clues. This shows how sophisticated the layout is. You can't read minds, so what can you tell?
?Besides, this happened because of me. It could have happened no matter what. You don’t have to blame yourself."
"I'm afraid..." Lin Shu couldn't help but said, "They haven't called you for so many days. Could it be that... they don't dare to call you?"
When Huo Jinxi heard this, his eyes were sharp.
He knew what Lin Shu meant.
Under what circumstances would a kidnapper be afraid to make a phone call?
That is, they no longer have any bargaining chips in their hands - that is to say, Cheng Manshu may have been killed.
Such a situation is not impossible, but Huo Jinxi has a hunch in his heart that Cheng Manshu will be fine.
The reason why the other party has not contacted him for a long time is just to hang him up and make him feel uneasy, watching him restrain his elbows everywhere, bumping around like a headless fly——
Except for one person, Huo Jinxi could not think of anyone with such bad taste.
On the morning of the fourth day, Huo Jinxi set off for Macau.
When he arrived in Macau, Qi Yuan had already picked him up at the airport there.
"Ye Jinfan has been staying at M Hotel these days and has never left." The car drove out of the airport and Qi Yuan quickly reported the situation, "So we haven't found any evidence to prove that he is related to his wife's disappearance."
Huo Jinxi slowly looked out the car window and said coldly: "This can only show that this time, he is really smart."
The car soon drove into the city, and Huo Jinxi also checked into the M Hotel.
As soon as he arrived at the hotel, Qi Yuan immediately contacted Ye Jinfan's people and wanted to arrange a meeting between Huo Jinxi and Ye Jinfan. However, all he got was excuses - either that Ye Jinfan was not available, or that he was not in the hotel.
However, not long after, the people sent by Qi Yuan to keep an eye on what was going on over there came the news that Ye Jinfan had gone to the casino.
"Mr. Huo?" After hearing the news, Qi Yuan immediately asked Huo Jinxi for instructions.
Huo Jinxi said slowly: "Naqiao is really stable. Okay, let's go to the casino to meet him."
Different from most games that are only available for tourists to try out, the casino also has various levels of VIP casinos. After Qi Yuan exchanged his chips, the casino manager soon came and personally introduced Huo Jinxi to the highest-level VIP casino.
There was only one gaming table in the huge gambling hall, and there were only four or five people at the table, playing Texas Hold'em poker.
And Ye Jinfan was among these people.
He sat at the head of the table, while Huo Jinxi took a seat at the end of the table.
Ye Jinfan seemed to have just seen him. He raised his eyebrows in slight surprise and said, "Mr. Huo? What a coincidence, you are also coming to Macau?"
"It's indeed a coincidence." Huo Jinxi said lightly, "I heard that you have been here for a while. The more you lose, the more you win?"
Ye Jinfan chuckled and said: "It's weird that I'm lucky enough to win... How do you think I got into this room? In the past few days, the money I lost here is enough to support them.
Casino owner for five years..."
Hearing this, the staff member standing at the gaming table smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Ye is generous."
Ye Jinfan sneered, "If I stay here for a few more days, I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to be generous again."
"There will always be good luck." The staff member said, "Mr. Ye is very lucky today."
After hearing this, Ye Jinfan raised his eyes and glanced at Huo Jinxi, saying, "Isn't this someone sitting down again? Who knows how the situation will change? Mr. Huo, please be merciful!"
Huo Jinxi straightened his sleeves and said, "Let the cards speak for themselves."
The gambling game continues soon.
In the first round, by the third card, Huo Jinxi had already thrown away three million chips, and other players had to abandon their cards.
Ye Jinfan followed the good example and folded his cards with a smile, then said: "Mr. Huo is going to give us all a blow as soon as he sits down! I'm starting to get a little nervous -"
Huo Jinxi said, "I'm just looking at the cards and talking."
In the second game, Huo Jinxi once again placed a heavy bet.
In view of the fact that Huo Jinxi's cards were not good in the last round and he just used a heavy bet to force everyone back, this time, two unbelievers bet against him. In the end, the chips on the table were collected by Huo Jinxi again.
In the bag.
Ye Jinfan, who also folded, couldn't help but applaud and laugh, "Mr. Huo is amazing."
In the next five games, Huo Jinxi won three more.
This situation directly forced one of the players to leave, and Ye Jinfan, who seemed to be the most cautious at the gambling table, also lost millions after a few rounds.
In the next few rounds, Huo Jinxi also struck hard, until almost all the chips on the gaming table were piled in front of him.
After one round, two more people left the gaming table.
After another round, only Ye Jinfan and Huo Jinxi were left at the gambling table.
In front of Ye Jinfan, apart from a bunch of scattered chips, there was only one two million chip left.
Ye Jinfan played with the chip between his fingers and said with a smile: "The few chips I have are not enough for Mr. Huo to play with. I think I have no choice but to get off the table."
"You are a big business person, how can you care about this mere ten million?" Huo Jinxi casually threw out a few chips as tips, leaned back in his chair and looked at Ye Jinfan.
Ye Jinfan had already stood up, but when he heard this, he sat back and said, "Is Mr. Huo praising me? If it were before, I would be very grateful to Mr. Huo for the compliment. It's a pity that I'm like this now.
How can I still have the capital to do business? I really have a deal that I want to discuss with Mr. Huo, but will Mr. Huo like me?"
Huo Jinxi stared at him and said slowly: "There is no deal without discussion. Since you want to do it, why not talk about it?"
"Okay." Ye Jinfan was not polite, raised his chin slightly, and said, "I know that the Huo family has obtained the leading right to develop tourism in the new island in the South China Sea. If I want to cooperate with Mr. Huo on this project, I don't know.
Will sir agree?"
Hearing these words, Huo Jinxi's eyes darkened, "You are quite well informed."
Ye Jinfan chuckled lightly, "I thought Mr. Huo would say that I have too much appetite - after all, I have no capital and am almost penniless. I dare to negotiate such terms with Mr. Huo. I feel ashamed myself. Of course, Mr. Huo
You can definitely reject me, after all, this is my own... whimsical."
"What if I promise to share a piece of the pie with you?" Huo Jinxi said.
The smile on Ye Jinfan's lips widened instantly, "Then I...will do my best to fulfill all your wishes for Mr. Huo."
