Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 217 All For You_1

Following Ding Jianwei’s guidance, Xiao Ming arrived at a booth seating four people and asked with a smile, "Are you all waiting for someone named Zhu Yibo?"

Three of the four people’s expressions changed subtly, with the most nonchalant looking among them also being the most distinct in appearance.

His right eye was slightly askew, as if one eye was standing guard while the other was on lookout, giving him an unintelligent appearance.

"Sorry! You might have mistaken us for someone else," one person said politely.

Xiao Ming ignored him, instead looking directly at the cross-eyed fellow and asked, "Are you sure? Just a moment ago I was taken away with Zhu Yibo."

Xie Yan Er slowly turned his head, his voice low, "What do you want?"

"I’d like to make a deal with you," Xiao Ming said.

"What kind of deal?"

"Come on, Zhu Yibo has already told me. The U-disk with secrets he brought from the confidential unit, it’s on you, isn’t it?"

The other three rose to their feet in alarm, but Xiao Ming took a step back as if wary and cautioned them, "Stay calm! Making a move on the casino boat can be deadly."

Xie Yan Er gestured for the three to sit back down and said, "Since you’ve learned this much from Zhu Yibo, then you should know we’ve already found a buyer."

Xiao Ming shrugged, "What difference does it make who buys it? No matter how much your buyer offers, I’ll raise it by fifty percent!"

Xie Yan Er shook his head, "Sorry! Our goal isn’t the money."

Xiao Ming narrowed his eyes, "Not for the money, huh? Then it must be to cause trouble up north."

As his words fell, not only did the three change their expressions, but even Xie Yan Er couldn’t help but tighten his expression.

"Who are you?"

"Don’t be nervous," Xiao Ming chuckled, "Let’s just say, I’m of a similar nature to your buyer.

They are anarchists, while I am beyond anyone’s control.

Most importantly, I myself am mixed up with the north.

From the perspective of causing trouble, I am a more suitable choice than your buyers."

Xie Yan Er furrowed his brows.

The other party not only knew of the buyer’s background but was also aware of their own identities. This was not something an ordinary person or organization could achieve.

Moreover, since Xiao Ming had been taken away with Zhu Yibo and now was back while Zhu Yibo seemed to have vanished, it was most likely that Zhu Yibo was out of luck.

Could it be... the other party was from the casino boat, looking to intercept the deal?

Xie Yan Er felt more certain the more he thought about it and, after a long moment of contemplation, said, "We can consider selling the item to you, but we don’t deal with people who hide behind masks.

Take off your mask."

"Why?"

"Because we will always be watching the movements in the north. If you play any tricks, no matter where you hide, we will find you and kill you, including your family members!"

"Well... that seems fair."

After feigning hesitation for a moment and looking around, Xiao Ming said, "Alright! I can take off the mask. But there are too many prying eyes here. I’ve already booked a VIP room; please, come with me."

Xie Yan Er tapped his finger on the table a few times and said to the other three, "Si comes with me, Ji and Shu stay behind, keep in touch in case of any issues and proceed with the plan."

The two people opposite him nodded together, "Yes!"

It was as if they were the only four who had come.

Xiao Ming didn’t expose them and turned to leave.

In a normal casino, except for the restrooms, surveillance cameras are everywhere, leaving no blind spots.

But the casino boat especially furnished VIP rooms that were completely clean, leaving no records, meant for private betting between guests.

And these private bets mostly didn’t involve money as the stakes; as for what they involved, one could only say that there’s nothing the gamblers wouldn’t dare.

Candy stood at the entrance of the private box, and when she saw Xiao Ming approaching, she bowed and then swiped her card to open the door.

There was someone inside, a woman clad in a long-sleeved kimono, dignified and solemn, but she wore a choker around her neck, which immediately transformed her dignified appearance into something overwhelmingly seductive, making people want to desecrate it.

Upon seeing her, Xie Yan Er immediately halted in his tracks.

"Come on," Xiao Ming grinned, "just a woman and the two of you big men are scared?

No wonder people say you’re getting nowhere on this island, looks like you’ve even brought out sissies to spy."

"What did you say?"

The one called Si became furious right away, but Xie Yan Er stopped him and asked Xiao Ming, "Is she also with your organization?"

"No. She’s just a dog I keep. Didn’t you see the collar around her neck?"

Hearing this response, Xie Yan Er actually felt relieved and, while stepping inside, said, "Sorry about that, in our line of work, it’s only with enough caution that one can survive."

"Caution is fine, but too much of it makes people suspicious."

Xiao Ming closed the door behind him and scoffed, "Otherwise, I wouldn’t have recognized you as the leader right away, Mr. F47."

Greatly shocked, Xie Yan Er spun around, a dagger already in hand.

Si, caught off guard, hurriedly pulled out his own weapon.

The gambling ship did not allow guns, but there were no restrictions on other weapons. They would even provide them for free if guests required.

"Am I right?"

Xiao Ming leaned over and asked Fujiwara Rika.

Fujiwara Rika nodded, "Yes, it’s him."

Xie Yan Er, guarding Si, slowly backed away to the side and asked in a deep voice, "Who exactly are you?"

"Didn’t I just tell you? People who want what you have in your hand!"

Xiao Ming removed his mask and flashed a radiant smile, "You see, I’m very true to my word."

Xie Yan Er became even more wary, "This is a gambling ship, you dare to mess around, you definitely won’t live till tomorrow!"

"Then why do you think I brought you to this private box without surveillance?"

"I’ve got brothers outside. By now they would’ve been filled in about the situation here through the walkie-talkie, they might have even notified the gambling ship."

Xie Yan Er said with a calm composure, "I advise you to let us go immediately, and I can pretend nothing ever happened."

"Hmm, that is indeed a troublesome issue."

Xiao Ming nodded gravely, then turned to Fujiwara Rika, "Remember, master, all this is for you."

After saying that, he slipped off his suit jacket and pulled out a knife from his pocket. Under Xie Yan Er’s horrified gaze, he savagely sliced across his left arm.

The cut was deep, and blood immediately gushed out, dying the sleeve of his white shirt bright red.

Fujiwara Rika’s eyes flickered, her chest heaved unevenly, and she licked her lips as if she really wanted to lean over and take a sip.

"Don’t get too excited, get to work!" Xiao Ming said impatiently.

Fujiwara Rika immediately focused and took out a communicator, ordering in a cold voice, "Guest number F47 in the VIP box has inflicted injury without cause. Seize anyone who came aboard with him, as well as anyone on the ship who has had contact with him!"

Xie Yan Er’s expression turned from shock to bewilderment, his slightly skewed eyeball becoming more pronounced as if he was going to desert his post.

Even if he was a fool, he understood that the other party was framing him in order to capture all his people in one fell swoop.

"You... you’re really with the gambling ship!" ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Xiao Ming pointed at Fujiwara Rika, "She is, I’m not."

"Why?" Xie Yan Er asked, puzzled, "Everything we’ve done was in accordance with the rules of the gambling ship, you have no reason to do this."
