Imperial capital.
A club for chaebol aristocrats.
When Gong Xian helped Fu Sheng exchange chips for the second time and returned to the box, Fu Sheng was holding a half-burned cigarette between his slender, bony fingertips.
At that moment, Gong Xian felt more than just shocked.
My back feels even colder.
The coldness surged everywhere.
After standing at the door in a daze for a long time, Gong Xian walked into the private room with stiff and uncoordinated limbs.
Who has offended that ancestor and made him want to start a massacre? !
Gong Xian walked over with the chips in his hand, only daring to glance at Fu Sheng out of the corner of his eye.
At this moment, Fu Sheng wore only a white shirt, his collar slightly open and his sleeves half-rolled. Blending into the white smoke that filled the room, his bandit aura grew even more flamboyant and unruly.
There was clearly a smile in his eyes, but Gong Xian only felt his hair tingling and the blood in his body stagnated.
Gong Xian subconsciously glanced at the other three people in the box.
Fu Sheng is playing cards.
He was the one who arranged this card game for Fu Sheng.
The Fu family shifted the focus of the group to the imperial capital, but it was not something that could be done easily.
Need: proceed step by step and advance layer by layer.
After all, the capital is someone else's territory.
The situation might be better if it were dominated by other families, but here the Pei family has the final say.
As the number one chaebol in Country Z, who doesn't know that the head of the Pei family, Pei Yucheng, is a ruthless character?!
It is said that Pei Yucheng's wrist strength is unmatched.
Trying to gain a foothold under Pei Yucheng's nose is like trying to survive in the cracks.
The situation was already serious enough, but at this critical juncture, Fu Sheng offended the Mohist family, the second largest royal family in Country Z.
Although the Gong family's status in the imperial capital is not the most prominent, it is not insignificant either.
The card game that Gong Xian helped to set up today was to help Fu Sheng get the land.
If you want to take root in the imperial capital, you must eventually occupy the land and become the king, so that you can dominate the world.
Fu Sheng had been eyeing that piece of land in the suburbs for a long time.
For today's card game, Gong Xian invited the governor of the imperial capital, the director of the Land Bureau, and the head of the Shi family, the second largest chaebol, and put a lot of thought into it.
Gong Xian's gaze swept over the three people at the card game one by one, then he asked with a somewhat stiff smile, "What's going on? Why is the atmosphere a bit serious?"
The governor of the imperial capital laughed heartily. "How can it be serious? Isn't it quite harmonious?! The only bad thing is that it seems Master Fu is having a bit of bad luck today."
The Director of the Land and Resources Bureau said, "Is it Master Fu's bad luck, or is it Master Shi's superb mahjong skills? I never knew Master Shi was such a great mahjong player."
Fu Sheng gave Gong Xian a look.
Gong Xian immediately understood.
Hand over the exchanged chips of 10 million chips.
However, the moment he handed it over, Gong Xian was a little dumbfounded.
I was just out for ten minutes.
All this 10 million was lost?!
Fu Sheng, is your luck really that bad?!
It shouldn't be.
Fu Sheng plays cards very smartly.
How could we lose so badly?
Gong Xian always thought that Fu Sheng lost too much today, so he was a little unhappy.
Even if he was smiling, the smile on his lips looked very forced.
It wasn't until Gong Xian stood in the private room and watched Fu Sheng play two hands of cards that he suddenly realized what was going on.
It’s not that Fu Sheng is bad at playing mahjong.
It wasn't that Fu Sheng deliberately lost money in order to win over the three people at the table.
Instead, the director of the Land Bureau asked about the governor of the imperial capital city raising a mistress.
It is an open secret that high-ranking officials keep mistresses outside.
Everyone knows it tacitly.
Not surprising.
