Chapter 285 Going to Haicheng
Jiang Xirui sat at the card table with several stacks of chips at his side.
"Go big, go big!"
There was constant noise nearby.
The dealer unveiled it, "Three points, small."
Cheers rang out all around.
Jiang Xirui spread his hands in frustration and pushed a stack of chips to the middle.
"One more round!"
Not far away, Meng Shanshan and Jiang Xirou were holding wine glasses, and the crisp sound of the glasses clinking rang out between the two.
"Tsk tsk, your Jiang family really has a prodigal son."
Jiang Xirou sneered: "Jiang family? Does he deserve it? He just has a good mother. If it weren't for Ji Minghua's protection, this brainless thing would have been fed to wild dogs long ago."
Meng Shanshan raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Have you prepared the background information for this casino? I finally found someone with a similar figure to Ye Jinmo."
"Don't worry, the boss behind this casino has been replaced by Ye Jinmo."

There are quite a few people going to Haicheng, so Professor Xie directly booked a floor of a five-star hotel.
Originally, Zhong Shaoqing didn't plan to go, but Zhong's mother came with two invitations, saying that it was the birthday party of the daughter of the Ruan family in Haicheng, and asked the two of them to attend.
He even showed the photo of this young lady to Zhong Shaoqing.
Ye Jinmo guessed what her mother was thinking for a few minutes.
The girl in the photo is pretty and charming, and at first glance, she is the spoiled daughter of a wealthy family.
It sounds like a birthday party, but in fact it is a blind date.
"Mom, I don't want to go." Zhong Shaoqing frowned.
"No, we have to give face to the Ruan family. Your father has received kindness from the old man of the Ruan family in Haicheng before. The invitation has been sent to our home. How can we not go?" Mother Zhong was firm in her attitude.
Ye Jinmo looked at the sadness in her eldest brother's eyes and shook his arm: "Brother, I'll go with you. It's just a birthday party."
She blinked her eyes and said, "Let's go quickly. Teng Yue and Sister Qing Huan are still waiting for us."
He patted her head: "Okay."
It was three hours later when we landed at Haicheng Airport.
She originally thought that Tan Qinghuan would not come back. The last time she went to Tan's house, she noticed that her morning sickness was quite severe.
Tan Mingzhu called personally and asked to help take care of her daughter. Her health has improved a lot recently.
Along the way, for a full three hours, Tan Qinghuan spent most of the time resting with his eyes closed.
Ye Jinmo sat with her and quietly felt her pulse while she was asleep.
The fetus is almost two months old and is in a stable condition.
She still couldn't figure out who had the ability to win Sister Qinghuan's heart.
She got pregnant before marriage, and there was no news of her having a boyfriend or getting engaged. It seemed like she was hiding information about that man.
Tan Qinghuan didn't say anything, and she was too embarrassed to ask about other people's privacy.
It’s just that my eldest brother... Well, judging from what mom said, she wants to match my eldest brother with the daughter of the Ruan family.
She asked Ji Sichen to help retrieve the information of the daughter of the Ruan family.
Ruan Qianqian, a graduate of Harvard University, is their junior. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is the youngest and only daughter of the Ruan family, so she has been spoiled since she was a child.
The outside world has always had a very good opinion of her, saying that she is well-educated, gentle, kind, and well-behaved, without the temper of a spoiled daughter. She often does charity work and has even taught in impoverished mountainous areas.
From this perspective, she is indeed a good match for her older brother.
The eldest brother is a gentle and steady man. This girl is from the same school and major as him, and is one year younger than him.
Matching family background, matching personalities, matching educational backgrounds.
If big brother can't be with Sister Qinghuan, it would be nice for him to be with this girl.
Ji Sichen asked her on WeChat.
[Why do you suddenly want to check this person? 】
She briefly stated the reason and finally asked, "Brother Chen, aren't you coming to the party? 】
The other party quickly replied, "I'll let Secretary Li go in my place, but if you want me to go, I'll go." 】
She replied with a cute cat head emoticon [No, I turned off my phone and the plane is about to take off. 】
Ji Sichen has been busy reorganizing the internal staff of Ji family and Yunyan, and she hasn't seen him for several days.
He didn't need to attend such an unimportant birthday party in person.
She put her phone down and turned to meet her brother's gaze.
But this line of sight seemed to be directed towards Sister Qinghuan.
She leaned back to give her eldest brother an unobstructed view.
Tan Qinghuan seemed to notice his gaze, pulled the blindfold down, covered herself with the blanket, and turned her head to the other side.
Zhong Shaoqing withdrew his gaze in disappointment.
The plane landed and several people left the airport.
There were more people traveling this time, and the bodyguards arranged by Zhong Shaoqing were dressed in plain clothes and blended in with the crowd.
Qian Tengyue was very enthusiastic in helping Ye Jinmo and Tan Qinghuan with their luggage.
For convenience, Zhong Shaoqing also stayed in the same hotel.
"Sister Jinmo, do you know that the most famous chef in Haicheng is in the Ruan family? We are blessed tonight!"
Ye Jinmo laughed and scolded: "So you already prepared a strategy!"
"That's right. Last night, I found all the good places to eat in Haicheng. We're going to be here for half a month, so we can definitely have a good meal. No, several meals!"
Tan Qinghuan was also amused: "Then let's go and try it tonight to see if the Ruan family's food is delicious!"
"Okay, okay, Sister Qinghuan, you will be my female companion. Then, Sister Jinmo will be Brother Zhong's female companion. It would be a joke if you go to a party like this alone."
"OK."
As they were chatting and laughing, a girl in sportswear, wearing a baseball cap, a mask and sunglasses came running towards them. She was looking back as she ran, as if someone was chasing her.
It seemed that this man was about to crash into Tan Qinghuan.
Zhong Shaoqing grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms. The girl bumped into his back, her foot was caught by the suitcase, and she fell to the ground.
Ye Jinmo was quick to pull her, but she pulled her so hard that she staggered. Zhong Shaoqing held his sister's waist with his other hand.
The girl stood firm, raised her head and glanced at Zhong Shaoqing with surprise in her eyes. Before she could ask his name, five men in suits came up from behind.
Five people gathered in front of the girl, and the leader looked embarrassed: "Miss, please come back with us. If you don't go back, the master will chop us to pieces."
A cunning look flashed in the girl's eyes. She grabbed Ye Jinmo with her backhand, pushed him out, and ran sideways.
"Then I'll chop you off!"
Qian Tengyue used his body to block Ye Jinmo, preventing her from falling.
She stood firm, frowned, looked into the distance, and rubbed her wrist.
"This girl has a strong hand."
"Sister Jinmo, are you okay?"
Several people gathered around.
Tan Qinghuan pulled her hand and saw that her wrist was red.
"Does it hurt?"
"Hi, Sister Qinghuan, I'm fine."
Qian Tengyue touched his chin and said, "I think this girl is probably being hunted down!"
Tan Qinghuan rolled her eyes at him: "Didn't the bodyguard just call her Miss? Maybe she's some rich girl who ran away from home."
Ye Jinmo nodded: "I agree."
Qian Tengyue packed up the suitcase that had been knocked over and exclaimed, "Wow, Qian Jin's Escape Story, so exciting!"
