A VIP guest!
Ye Longlin was actually a VIP guest of the Wang family!?
Although Wang Meilan did not represent the entire Wang family, they did not know that!
“Mr. Ye, Miss Mu, please.”
Wang Meilan ignored Huo Yize and slightly bowed, making a gesture.
Ye Longlin turned and boarded the ship, causing everyone present, a group of social elites, to feel astonishment and shock.
A young man in casual wear was actually a big shot!
Lin Tian'ai also felt the gazes from all around, as if looking at a clown, as if they were all saying she had poor judgment.
She gritted her teeth and quickly boarded.
“Hahaha, Mr. Ye, you’re finally here.”
Wang Qi was busy greeting a group of people, but upon seeing Ye Longlin, he abandoned the others and rushed over.
“I’m going to check on Tian’ai.”
Mu Hanqi smiled slightly, found an excuse to leave. Being close yet distant was the best approach; there was no need to insist on staying together.
Seeing the female companions leave, Wang Qi revealed a smile that only men would understand, chuckling, “Mr. Ye, there’s a casino inside, do you want to play a few rounds? Win or lose, it’s all on me.” https:/
Before Ye Longlin could speak, Wang Qi pulled him inside.
The casino’s scale was quite impressive; this cruise ship was chartered from Macau.
Gambling is illegal in China.
However, Xingcheng is a magical city, or rather, a border city. To the south are the ten thousand mountains, and to the north is the sea. Three hundred kilometers out is international waters.
Therefore, once it sailed into international waters, everything became legal.
In the casino, Ye Longlin saw Huo Lianying sitting opposite Bai Wushuang.
Not only that, but there were two other big shots at the card table!
Xu Shiyue, Wang Meilan.
No wonder Wang Meilan was alone after boarding; she was here playing cards.
“Xu Shiyue, if the cards in your hand are not as good as ours, then you must abide by the contract and exchange shares with the Wang Group.”
Although Wang Meilan was a woman, her methods were more ruthless than most men’s; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to secure the position of president of the Wang Group.
Among Xu Group, Wang Group, Baize Group, and Lianying Group, only the Wang Group was not a local family in Xingcheng.
The Xu family ranked second among the four great families.
“Niece Xu, give up.”
“Yes, give up. These matters are beyond your grasp. The Xu family is already showing signs of weakness; you cannot hold on.”
Ye Longlin glanced at their card table and was slightly surprised. It was her!
Seeing Xu Shiyue, he instantly understood why she was here.
Back then, when he first arrived overseas for a mission, he hadn’t expected such powerful firepower support from the other side. Due to intelligence errors, an entire squad was wiped out, and he was severely injured.
Under local protection, Xu Shiyue pulled him from the pile of dead bodies. Although they were forced to abandon him later, if she hadn’t pulled him from the pile of the dead, he would have been burned alive.
He hadn’t found her later, but unexpectedly, he encountered her here.
“Hey, hey, Mr. Ye, my mom said these are disputes between big corporations, so don’t interfere.”
Ye Longlin shook his head and walked over.
Facing the suppression from three parties, the Xu Group was now at a point of life and death. Xu Shiyue had no choice but to brace herself.
“I fold.”
She gave up her hand. She had one last chip in front of her, a hundred thousand.
It was only enough for the ante.
The Xu Group held three cultural tourism properties, but they clashed with Baize Group’s main projects.
Furthermore, the Xu Group itself started with physical industries, so it also clashed with Lianying Group. As for the Wang Group, they simply wanted to use the Xu Group to enter Xingcheng.
This led to the current situation where they were being targeted.
The dealer dealt the cards, and Ye Longlin smiled slightly, suddenly saying, “Three against one, isn’t that a bit unfair?”
“Ye Longlin, this is our business, why are you getting involved?”
Huo Lianying frowned. He could let go of previous matters, but he wouldn’t let this matter slide today.
Xu Shiyue knitted her delicate brows and looked at Ye Longlin with confusion. She didn’t seem to recognize him; why was he speaking up for her?
“Ye Longlin, what are you doing? Is this something you can get involved in? Hurry up and leave!”
Just then, Lin Tian’ai walked over, witnessed the scene, and stepped forward, trying to pull Ye Longlin away.
She was afraid Ye Longlin would stir up more trouble.
“Mr. Ye.”
“Mr. Ye.”
Wang Meilan and Bai Wushuang saw Ye Longlin approaching and quickly stood up and called out.
Ye Longlin had been kind to them.
At this, Lin Tian’ai couldn’t help but feel awkward, so awkward she could dig out a three-bedroom apartment.
“Stop messing around, hurry up and go!”
Ye Longlin glanced at her, his eyes showing impatience, and said in a deep voice, “Lin Tian’ai, please don’t mistake your ignorance for cuteness. This is my business, what does it have to do with you?”
After speaking, Ye Longlin turned back and smiled kindly, “Miss Xu, do you remember the person you pulled out of the trench five years ago in India?”
Xu Shiyue frowned slightly, her eyes widening in shock, “It’s you!!”
Ye Longlin smiled, “It’s me. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be standing here today.”
That battle had caused severe consequences due to the intelligence department’s errors, and he himself was severely injured. It was also at that time that he resolved to establish his own intelligence department.
“Everyone, Miss Xu saved my life. I will protect the Xu Group. I hope you will give me face.”
“Hiss!”
Hearing this, the surrounding people all gasped. Clearly, they hadn’t expected him to say such a thing.
This meant he was about to offend all three groups!
Wang Meilan was silent for a moment: “Since Miss Xu saved Mr. Ye’s life, she is a friend of my Wang Group, so I withdraw.”
Bai Wushuang smiled freely, “I don’t mind, but I didn’t expect Mr. Ye and Miss Xu to have this kind of relationship. I also withdraw. Miss Xu, let’s arrange a time for you and Old Xu to have dinner sometime. I’ll apologize.”
Huo Lianying: “I’ll go to your mother!”
