A night passed.
After Xiao Chen got up, he had breakfast and drove to the hotel where Gambling King He was staying.
Regarding gambling matters, he thought it would be better to ask Gambling King He.
No matter what, this old man has been running a casino for half his life, and he must know many more gambling masters than himself.
"Mr. Xiao."
He Shuheng, the son of gambling king He, was already waiting at the door after receiving the call.
"Why are you still calling me 'Mr. Xiao'? Didn't you say that you can just call me by my name?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Where is the gambling king?"
"Dad is on it, please."
He Shuheng took Xiao Chen upstairs in the elevator.
Soon, Xiao Chen met Gambling King He.
The thin gambling king He looks energetic and in good condition.
He looked at Xiao Chen and smiled: "Xiao Xiaoyou, please take a seat."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and sat down.
"How come Xiaoyou has time to come here?"
Gambling King He was a little curious. In his opinion, Xiao Family was established yesterday, so Xiao Chen should be very busy today.
"I have something I want to ask Gambling King He for advice."
Xiao Chen didn't waste any words and spoke directly.
"Oh? Please go ahead."
Gambling King He sat up straighter, and He Shuheng next to him also looked at Xiao Chen.
"Does Gambler He know about the big bet between the Ye family and the Gabir family?"
Xiao Chen looked at Gambling King He and asked.
"I know. It's a rare spectacle in recent years, with all the big gambles."
Gambling King He nodded.
"The last time you went to Macau, the battle between Chen Jiuzhi and Daqian Wang was also about this, wasn't it? Whoever loses will not go to the appointment with the Ye family."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"I got the news last night that the Ye family lost."
"That's right, the Ye family lost."
Gambling King He obviously also knew about this, and knew it in more detail than Xiao Chen.
After all, he is a man of the gambling world, and there are some things that cannot be hidden from him.
"Friend Xiao, I heard that Ye Ziyi from the Ye family knows you?"
"Well, she's my woman."
Xiao Chen nodded and spoke slowly.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, King He was slightly shocked, and then he exclaimed: "This girl from the Ye family is really courageous... If it were me, I might not have such courage!"
"Zi Yi offered higher conditions and chips in exchange for a chance to gamble again, but the current situation of the Ye family is that they can't find a gambling expert they can trust."
Xiao Chen looked at Gambling King He and said.
"Xiao Xiaoyou, do you want to help the Ye family?"
Gambling King He nodded and asked.
"No, I'm not helping the Ye family, I'm helping Zi Yi... Gambling King He, do you know a trustworthy gambling expert? An expert who can represent the Ye family in gambling!"
Xiao Chen shook his head and looked at Gambling King He.
"I know a world-class gambling expert, but I don't know if I can trust him..."
Gambling King He hesitated and shook his head.
"There is nothing in this world that is absolutely trustworthy... I have always felt that whether or not one can betray depends on whether one has enough chips."
Xiao Chen looked at Gambling King He, thought about the mess in his family, and nodded.
The He family's affairs have always been a hot topic in the media.
If he hadn't intervened and helped gambling king He's health improve, the He family's situation would probably still be very bad now!
However, gambling king He is in good condition now, and no matter what turmoil there is, he has suppressed it.
Compared to others, the gambling king He, who has been a powerful figure all his life, is naturally more powerful!
"Friend Xiao, have you ever considered personally fighting on behalf of the Ye family?"
Gambling King He looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
“He Gambling King, I’m just playing around. It’s not good enough to represent the Ye family.”
Xiao Chen shook his head. He didn't know what Ye Ziyi was betting on, so he had to think of a foolproof plan.
"You were able to defeat the Great Thousand King, which is enough to prove your strength, isn't it?"
Gambling King He said slowly.
"Whether it's the Ghost Hand Gambling King Chen Jiuzhi or the Great Thousand King, they are both masters among masters in the Chinese gambling world. They both lost to you, which shows that your gambling skills are very strong."
"This is just the last resort."
Xiao Chen was helpless.
"I can introduce two world-class gambling masters, but... I can't guarantee that they are trustworthy."
Gambling King He thought for a moment and said.
"Well, forget it then."
Xiao Chen shook his head. It would be so frustrating if the person he introduced was unreliable.
The risk is too great, it would be better for him to do it himself.
"Gambling King He, do you know what Zi Yi has staked?"
"Not sure. It is said that a new bet was made after the two parties had a secret discussion... No one knows the details of the discussion except the two parties involved."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded. It seemed that he had no choice but to go and ask Ye Ziyi.
"I have a few experts here who can go with you to raid the battlefield... My suggestion is that you go on your own!"
Gambling King He said seriously.
"Okay, thank you, Gambling King He first."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Afterwards, the two chatted about other things.
It was about an hour later that Xiao Chen left the hotel and headed straight for the manor where Old Man Chen was.
He's leaving, I have to go over and say hello.
If something really happens and he can't come back, the Dragon Emperor can send someone over, and they should be able to hold on.
After arriving at the place, Xiao Chen met Old Man Chen.
"You still owe me a meal, remember?"
Old man Chen looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"Um, didn't you eat yesterday?"
Xiao Chen twitched the corner of his mouth.
"How can it be the same? Everyone ate it yesterday!"
Old man Chen glared.
"Okay, okay, how about I treat you to a meal today..."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"Tell me first, why are you here today... If you don't tell me, I, an old man, won't be able to eat. I always feel that you are here for no good reason."
Old man Chen looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"Um, nothing much, I just have to go out for a while these two days. I think I'll be out for a while. If there's anything going on at the Xiao family, I'd like to trouble you to take care of it."
Xiao Chen spoke very politely, after all, he needed help from others.
"No wonder you came here, something's wrong!"
Old man Chen squinted his eyes.
"What are you going to do again?"
"Go to the capital, and then go abroad."
"Okay, as long as I'm in Longhai, call me if you have any questions."
Old man Chen looked at Xiao Chen and nodded.
Xiao Chen was a little surprised. Did this fat old man agree so readily?
He originally thought that the fat old man would not agree and would go find Nangong Bufan.
Now it seems that it is not necessary.
"Mr. Chen, thank you very much. You are indeed handsome and elegant..."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense."
Old man Chen rolled his eyes. This flattery did not have any sincerity at all.
As the two were talking, Nangong Bufan arrived, followed by Nangong Ling holding a sword.
Nangong Ling was startled when she saw Xiao Chen. Why was he here?
Then she looked away.
Including yesterday, when she followed her master to the Xiao family manor, she didn't say a word to Xiao Chen.
The main thing is... she didn't know how to face Xiao Chen.
"Mr. Nangong."
Xiao Chen stood up when he saw Nangong Bufan.
"Well, Xiao Xiaoyou, please sit down."
Nangong Bufan nodded.
After Xiao Chen sat down, he smiled at Nangong Ling again, but the latter had a blank expression on his face.
"How come Xiaoyou has time to come here today?"
Nangong Bufan looked at Xiao Chen with some curiosity.
Xiao Chen briefly explained why he was going out.
"oh?"
After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Nangong Bufan glanced at Nangong Ling beside him and felt something in his heart.
"Is Xiao Xiaoyou going out by himself?"
"If you go to the capital, it's not you, but if you go abroad, it should be you."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Xiao Xiaoyou, I have a request. Is it convenient for you?"
Nangong Bufan looked at Xiao Chen and said with a smile.
"Mr. Nangong, please speak."
Xiao Chen was startled and said quickly.
"It's like this. Ling'er has been following me all the time and hasn't had much experience outside..."
Nangong Bufan glanced at his female disciple and said.
Listening to Nangong Bufan's words, Xiao Chen had a bad feeling. Could it be that he wanted him to take her out for training?
Sure enough, after Nangong Bufan said a few words, he smiled and said, "This time when Xiao Xiao goes out, if it is convenient, why not take my apprentice with you and let her have more experience, okay?"
"inconvenient."
"not good!"
Xiao Chen and Nangong Ling said almost at the same time.
Hearing what the two said, Nangong Bufan was stunned, while Old Man Chen seemed to be smiling.
Nangong Ling, who originally had no intention of going, glared at Xiao Chen with some dissatisfaction, and her temper flared up again.
She can refuse this, say it's not good, and then not go!
Why? He said it was inconvenient!
What’s the matter? Are you so unwilling to take her with you?
She doesn't even want it!
"Well, Mr. Nangong, I'm going abroad this time for serious business, not to travel... It's not very convenient to bring your disciple with me."
Xiao Chen looked at Nangong Ling and said to Nangong Bufan.
In his heart, he still kept his distance from Nangong Ling.
Even though he saved Nangong Ling once and the latter was not so against him, women were so damn fickle.
What if at some point, they target him again and draw their swords against him? That would be so painful!
So, it’s better to refuse!
"oh?"
Nangong Bufan looked at his female disciple, then at Xiao Chen, and nodded.
"Well, since it's not very convenient, forget it. Haha, I just had this idea suddenly."
"Please don't blame me, Mr. Nangong."
Xiao Chen could feel the cold gaze from Nangong Ling.
"nothing."
Nangong Bufan waved his hand.
"Don't worry about Longhai. If there are any problems, Lao Chen and I will take care of them."
"Yes, please excuse me, two seniors."
Xiao Chen nodded and said gratefully.
"It's not a big deal. Besides... you saved Ling'er's life."
Nangong Bufan smiled but felt a little disappointed in his heart. If Xiao Chen could go out with Ling'er and stay together all day long, wouldn't there be some sparks flying between them?
But seeing that both of them seem to be quite against it, let's just forget about it and let's think about it later!
Hearing the words "life-saving grace", Nangong Ling took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and said to herself, since he saved her, she would not argue with him!
