Chapter 1 Accompanying Zhao Yimeng for a Meal

After having a meal with Zhao Yimeng, they went their separate ways.

Nan Gongtian and the others weren't home, so Su Yehao took the yacht back to Casino to visit Yin Liuli.

Her due date was just a few days away.

Due to being caught by reporters last year, Su Yehao learned a profound lesson.

Therefore, he was particularly low-key this time. He had Yin Liuli admitted to the Earl General Hospital in Casino yesterday, which was her due date.

Su Yehao didn't personally show his face from beginning to end. Mother Tang arranged for people to take care of her, fabricating a story about her boyfriend working on Wall Street and being unable to return, giving the reason for her being pregnant out of wedlock.

Even the doctors and nurses were kept in the dark, only believing that Yin Liuli's "fiancé" was related to the Tang family, which was why she was able to stay in the VIP ward.

Yin Liuli was very understanding about this, only telling Su Yehao to focus on his own affairs on the phone.

After all, giving birth was a major event. How could Su Yehao not care at all? However, one becomes skilled after doing something twice. Having had the experience last time, he was much calmer this time.

Nine forty in the evening.

After the yacht docked, Su Yehao took a car to the hospital.

Next to Yin Liuli's VIP ward, Su's father had checked in this afternoon, pretending to have a headache. He planned to stay until the child was born and then leave, taking the opportunity to get a physical examination and rest.

This idea was Mother Tang's. It avoided the situation of not having a reason to visit after the child was born, and it also conveniently allowed Su Yehao to appear in the hospital openly. However, when he arrived, Yin Liuli was already asleep.

Su Yehao didn't disturb her and went to his father's ward next door.

Su's father was watching TV and curiously asked, "Didn't I tell you to lie low? Why did you rush over so late at night?"

"My own father is hospitalized. No matter how busy I am as a son, I have to come and see you. It's only right and proper. My mother is so smart, arranging you right next to Liuli. I should have pretended to have a headache myself."

As soon as Su Yehao finished speaking, he heard his father scoff:

"I don't believe you. You don't even make a phone call normally. Would you even know if I was really hospitalized? You attract too much attention now. If the news of you being sick gets out, it will definitely attract reporters. It's different for me. At my age, who doesn't have high blood pressure or high blood sugar? It's normal to be hospitalized for a check-up."

"That's true. You should get checked more often at your age. It's better to waste a little time than to be lazy and cut corners."

Su Yehao finished speaking in a low voice, sat on a chair by the window, and said drowsily:

"Oh, right, I'm planning to bid for a gambling license. This business is easily controversial, so why don't you do it for me? The travel agency business is booming anyway. Two or three thousand more rooms won't be a problem. We can open a casino hotel on the island of Taipa, integrating eating, drinking, and entertainment."

Hearing this.

Su's father immediately sat up straight, wide awake. His eyes lit up as he asked, "Really? Don't joke with me late at night. Last time I asked you, didn't you say you had no interest?"

"Times change. I'm not very interested in a pure casino, but following the Las Vegas model, the casino business only accounts for about half of the total revenue. Millions of tourists come to Casino every year, and the profits are also considerable."

Yawning again, Su Yehao pinched his brow and added listlessly:

"On the way here, I already came up with a theme idea. We'll build a large water park with roller coasters, Ferris wheels, and the like. We'll also build an oceanarium in the hotel and charge admission fees. The entire construction period will last at least five or six years. By then, I shouldn't be short of money anymore, and it won't put any pressure on our family."

In the hospital bed, Su's father, wearing silk pajamas, had bright eyes and asked again, "According to you, wouldn't the investment be even greater than those companies in Las Vegas?"

"Probably. It mainly depends on the final design plan. The total scale must be at least ten billion Hong Kong dollars, and two hundred billion wouldn't be a big problem either."

The global economic environment is not good in the short term, but with the industries Su Yehao has laid out, it won't be long before they take off.

Considering the long construction period, doubling his net worth by then would be considered a small profit. There really isn't much pressure. Even if the assets he holds can't be easily sold, he can use them as collateral for bank loans. It's just a matter of paying some interest.

When the time comes, with a little maneuvering, he can list the casino hotel on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and raise a large sum of money in return.

Su's father replied:

"You're right. It's not good for a young man to invest in casinos. The waters are very deep, and I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it. It's different if I come forward. Several of my friends are preparing to get involved, but unfortunately, they don't have enough strength. They've long wanted to pull me in for cooperation. If I hadn't invested all my money in the real estate industry, I would have blindly rushed in."

His eyes twitching, Su Yehao replied, "I'll have someone study it tomorrow. How is Yin Liuli doing?"

"She's doing well, just waiting for the child to be born. I used to worry that you would follow my old path. It turns out that finding a few more daughters-in-law for me was the right thing to do. The family is rapidly growing..."

Thinking about going into the gambling business, Su's father couldn't stop smiling, feeling that it was simply a double blessing.

As for the son he had with Nong Qingying, the little guy had only just learned to call "Mom" a few days ago. He ate and slept all day long. Since his birth, Su Yehao hadn't really worried about him.

The same was true for Nong Qingying.

She left the child to two nannies to take care of. The gold-medal nannies with million-dollar annual salaries never let her worry.

The house was also very large, with excellent soundproofing. Once the door was closed, she couldn't even hear the crying at night. Her life was very comfortable.

...

While communicating with his father about the location of the casino hotel and which competitors there were, Su Yehao suddenly heard movement outside.

He left the VIP ward, stopped a nurse, and asked, "What's going on?"

"Oh, Young Master Su, you're still at the hospital? I just heard my colleague mention you. The pregnant woman in the next room's water broke. I'm going to ask the doctor to come and examine her."

The nurse seemed quite excited and almost forgot what she was supposed to do, standing there blankly.

Su Yehao was speechless and replied, "Oh, I'm chatting with my dad about some business matters. Go ahead and get busy. This Miss Yin next door is related to my family, so you must take good care of her."

"Oh! I'll go find the on-duty doctor first..."

After the nurse left, Su Yehao went to the next room.

Seeing him, Yin Liuli hurriedly said, "Don't come in yet. There's water all over the floor. Why did you come so late?"

Her water breaking made her a little embarrassed. She vaguely realized something was wrong while half-asleep, but she didn't expect to see Su Yehao.

Su Yehao said to her, "I came to...visit my dad. It might take a long time for you to give birth after your water breaks. You should rest well. The doctor will be here soon."

"I've already learned about it. You should go, so you don't get seen and leak the news, causing me to end up in the newspapers too."

Although she said that, Yin Liuli was mainly considering Su Yehao's situation, worried that he would be caught by the tail again...
