Qin Suisui had arranged to have dinner with her senior brother Huo in the morning, but she was forced to cancel the date after receiving a call from Ouyang Beiguo in the afternoon.
Ouyang Beiguo never expected that Qin Lu's accidental discovery would lead him to uncover a corner of a mysterious fraud gang.
“Lawyer Qin, I dare not tell anyone, including the police.”
Qin Suisui was completely bewildered when she received a call from Ouyang Beiguo, whose mysterious attitude left her utterly confused.
"What can you do all by yourself? If we don't notify the police, are we going to turn into Conan?"
She was somewhat speechless, but still offered her suggestions.
“Mr. Ouyang, if you suspect that there may have been a blunder on the police's side, resulting in a leak of information, you can tell the police your doubts and let them investigate on their own.”
“Mr. Ouyang, we are not characters in a novel; we don’t have the ability to turn danger into safety in the most perilous moments!”
Ouyang Beiguo quickly offered his explanation.
"No, Lawyer Qin, I didn't ask you to go on an adventure with me. I just want you to come with me to a club. I suspect that club is the hideout of a fraud gang. If the police investigate, it will probably alert them and make them go into hiding. I finally managed to find out a little bit of useful information through my connections, and it will all be for nothing!"
He had never suffered such humiliation in his life, and he swore that he would expose that shameless bastard to the world.
He didn't necessarily intend to recover the transferred and defrauded assets, but he was determined to find the adulterer and obtain evidence of their illicit affair; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to swallow his anger.
"I see!"
Ouyang Beiguo's suggestion piqued Qin Suisui's interest.
“I would definitely refuse to go with you, because I won’t entrust my safety to you. But I’ll ask my boyfriend if he would like to come with me. If he agrees, then the three of us can go in and explore together. If he doesn’t agree, I’m sorry, Mr. Ouyang, I cannot grant your request!”
"Okay!"
Ouyang Beiguo's reply was arduous; he was truly at his wit's end. He couldn't confide his frustrations to anyone, and there was no one around him he could trust.
He got to where he is today because of his anger.
Ironically, after living to his thirties, he could only trust his own lawyer.
"Lawyer Qin, I hope you can give me a reply as soon as possible!"
After hanging up the phone, Qin Suisui began to think about how to persuade her senior brother Huo to go with her.
To be honest, after Ouyang Beiguo told her, she felt a real sense of excitement and anticipation.
"Let's be honest and tell the truth!"
Qin Suisui resignedly dialed Huo Zhongyuan's cell phone.
"Senior Brother Huo!"
The microphone answered at an astonishing speed, giving her a taste of what instantaneous answering speed truly meant.
"Are you missing me?"
Huo Zhongyuan's voice was languid and magnetic, its tone like a hook, making her heart flutter.
"I want to~"
Qin Suisui's voice was unconsciously tender.
"But I'd rather you come with me to do something!"
"What's up?"
Huo Zhongyuan felt a sudden surge of vigilance; for Sui Sui to speak like that, it must not be an ordinary place.
"Senior, it's like this, I have a client..."
Qin Suisui briefly explained the whole story, and then listened intently to Senior Brother Huo's statement on the other end of the microphone.
"Qin Suisui, you're overly curious!"
Huo Zhongyuan's tone was displeased, but he knew Sui Sui very well. Since she had made the suggestion to him, she must be interested in exploring it.
"Let me think about it. Give me half an hour, and I'll call you back."
As he was about to hang up, he issued another warning.
"Qin Suisui, before I make a decision, you are not allowed to run around on your own, you are not allowed to go anywhere, wait for my call in the office!"
Qin Suisui put down her phone after Huo Zhongyuan's repeated warnings, and it took her a while to react.
Senior Brother Huo actually spoke harshly to her!
Meanwhile, Huo Zhongyuan, on the other end of the microphone, used his connections to inquire about the background of that club.
"Guo Yu, can you help me find out about a club called 'The First Seat'?"
"Yes, the main thing is to find out who's behind it all. I need to find out who's truly in power behind the scenes!"
Get back to me within half an hour!
After hanging up the phone, he began to ponder, realizing that Sui Sui's business was far more dangerous than he had imagined.
Even without Guo Yu's reply, he could guess that the Chief Seat must have a criminal background, if Sui Sui had entered the Chief Seat directly behind her back.
Thinking of the potential dangers, Huo Zhongyuan felt a chill run through his body, and a suffocating feeling as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest.
He resisted the urge to call Sui Sui until his phone rang and he saw that it was Guo Yu calling.
From the moment he answered the phone until he hung up, Huo Zhongyuan kept his brows furrowed throughout the entire call, displaying a serious and focused attitude.
"You mean, the real mastermind behind the first one is Raymond Lam from Macau?"
His face turned ashen as the confirmation came from the other end of the microphone.
"Understood. Also, arrange for a few people to guard outside the main hall. I'm taking two people there tonight to spend money. Make sure to closely monitor everything that happens at the main hall tonight, and don't let the slightest unusual movement escape notice!"
Only then did Huo Zhongyuan realize how frantic he would be if something happened to Sui Sui; he couldn't even imagine such a scene.
Even just imagining it makes me feel a destructive urge!
Without thinking twice, he finally dialed Qin Suisui's cell phone.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Sui Sui's gentle voice coming through the microphone.
"Sui Sui, wait for me in the office, I'll come pick you up now!"
