Half an hour later, Hu Jingwei learned from Hu Xing about Shi Long's meeting with Zhao Rui.
Hu Jingwei was very surprised. Shi Long was his bodyguard in name.
Yet, apart from being in charge of his personal safety, he hardly obeyed any of his orders!
However, the reason why such an arrogant person should lay his head on Zhao Rui is really intriguing.
The more Hu Jingwei thought about it, the weirder it became. The more he thought about it, the heavier the doubts in his heart became. He suddenly began to wonder if the silver-faced killer that appeared last night had any connection with Zhao Rui.
After thinking carefully for a while, Hu Jingwei said, "The dinner party last night was originally set up for Zhao Rui. I didn't expect that a killer suddenly appeared, destroying my plan and missing the opportunity."
"What does it matter?" Hu Xing humbly bent over and looked at Hu Jingwei's face as he said, "We missed our chance last night. We can find another chance."
"Oh? It seems that you already have a plan?" Hu Jingwei glanced at him and asked.
Hu Xing smiled and said, "There is a plan, but I don't know if it is feasible."
Hu Jingwei smiled, "Don't come with me. If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Alright, alright." Hu Xing agreed twice and then said, "Chairperson, at the dinner yesterday, I found the movie queen Ye Ming and Zhao Rui to talk to each other. Although she couldn't get any information out of Zhao Rui's mouth, the two of them seemed to have a good chat. I think we can continue.
Ye Ming sometimes liked to go to the casino for fun, so he introduced her to the gambling area managed by Zhao Rui to create opportunities for them. As for the gambling capital and other expenses, we will bear them. Anyway, no matter how Ye Ming loses, he loses in our casino. There is no loss. "
Hu Jingwei thought about it slightly and felt that this idea was good, so he said, "I'll leave this matter to you to handle. It's best to be able to determine Zhao Rui's identity and origin. If you can't do it, it's okay to rope him in. Hu Xing, this matter is of great importance. If it's done well, I'll remember you."
Hearing this, Hu Xing was immediately delighted. He hurriedly swore that he must do this beautifully to satisfy the boss.
After talking about business, Hu Jingwei asked Hu Xing to drink tea in the garden, which flattered Hu Xing and made him feel honored.
Looking at Liandao City as big as this, there were very few people who could drink tea with Hu Jingwei.
He felt that he might really have his luck.
He secretly swore that no matter what, he would do this well and satisfy Hu Jingwei.
As soon as Hu Xing went out, he gave Ye Ming a call and asked her to come to Viney Casino.
"Oh, I'm really sorry, Boss Hu, I'm currently in the mainland, preparing to attend the opening ceremony of a film festival, but I can't make it!" Ye Ming's soft and glutinous voice was full of regret. One couldn't help but understand her difficulties.
However, Hu Xing did not understand the mood right now, and hurriedly asked, "When will you be able to come back? One day or two days?"
On the other end of the phone, Ye Ming asked his agent and then replied, "I'm afraid I won't be able to go back for a day or two. Apart from attending the opening ceremony of the film festival, I have some other work arrangements. It will take at least a week before I can go back to Lian Island."
Hearing this, Hu Xing was so anxious that the sweat on his forehead broke out!
Now the Hu family was in danger and needed to win over Zhao Rui urgently. He didn't have time to wait for a week!
Moreover, Hu Jingwei wouldn t give him such a long time either!
If he wanted to leave a deep impression in Hu Jingwei's mind, he must use the fastest speed to win Zhao Rui over and let Hu Jingwei see results!
"My eldest miss, what kind of work arrangements do you have? Can you push back?" Hu Xing wiped the sweat on his forehead and asked.
"I can't! The work schedule is too full. In addition to attending the opening ceremony, I have to shoot two advertisements and participate in two endorsements. I don't even have time to sleep. These are all agreed with others, and I can't change them. How about this? I'll finish the work at hand and fly back to Lian Island immediately. What do you think?"
"Not so much." Hu Xing saw Ye Ming shirking, and his tone couldn't help but be tough. "Miss Ye, you go back to Lian Island immediately. The work at hand must be pushed back. If there is any loss, our Hu family will bear it. In addition, our Viney Resort also signed a three-year endorsement with you. This condition should be good."
Ye Ming was tempted.
The advertising fee of Viney Resort is very generous, which is famous in the circle.
Many stars almost broke their heads in order to rob the endorsement of Viney Resort.
The Pooh Resort also has very high requirements for spokespeople.
Generally speaking, international superstars are invited to speak for them. If they are slightly less famous, they are not allowed.
And this time Hu Xing actually promised her that the income of three years of endorsement was definitely not a small sum!
However, Hu Xing spent such a big price to invite her to the casino to play two games?
This is absolutely impossible!
Ye Ming pondered for a while on the other end of the phone, then said leisurely, "Boss Hu, you invited me to the Pooh Casino. Isn't it a special vacation?"
Hu Xing smiled and said, "Of course, I specially invited Miss Ye to play."
At this point, he paused and continued, "I will also invite our Winnie's Casino, the most outstanding manager of the gambling area, to accompany us throughout the whole process."
"Oh? The best gambling manager?" Ye Ming heard out-point from Hu Xing's words. "Who is that?"
Hu Xing said, "Miss Ye and he are actually old friends. You met at our chairperson's dinner."
Hearing what Hu Xing said, Ye Ming immediately understood what Hu Xing meant.
She said faintly, "Boss Hu, is he accompanying me or am I accompanying him?"
Hu Xing let out a dry laugh and said, "It's all the same, it's all the same, isn't it?"
Ye Ming's heart rose with anger for no reason. How to say, she was also a popular movie queen and a first-line star.
No matter where she went, she was crowding around and respected everywhere.
Her pursuers, such as crucian carp crossing the river, have many rich and powerful children and billionaires.
However, she was now like a cheap escort who was called by Hu Xing to accompany an almost unknown gambling manager!
How could she accept this?
Even Hu Xing had given her great help when she started her career.
However, at the last Hu Mansion dinner, she lowered her figure, sacrificed her hue, and inquired about Zhao Rui's identity. It was considered that she had paid off the favor.
Asking her to do it again, she would definitely not do it!
"Sorry, Boss Hu. I'm really busy and don't have time. You can find someone else." Ye Ming said coldly and was about to hang up.
Hu Xing's voice instantly darkened, revealing a seeping chill.
"Miss Ye, our chairperson personally explained this matter and asked me to handle it. If I can't handle it well and ruin the chairperson's big event, I will definitely be unable to eat it and walk around. But Miss Ye, I can tell you very clearly that your future life will not be easy."
Ye Ming recognized the threat in Hu Xing's words, and his heart couldn't help but feel cold.
She did not expect that this matter was personally explained by Hu Jingwei!
Hu Jingwei was in charge of the Hu family and belonged to one of the three noble families. His power in Lian Island was simply at its peak and no one could reach it.
Although, there are rumors recently that the Hu family broke with the Wei family, and they have also been assassinated by others recently.
However, the gambling empire he controlled was still as stable as Mount Tai.
The power he wielded was still not weakened at all!
Although she is now a popular movie star, once she angers Hu Jingwei, let alone she will definitely be suppressed in the future. The star path is bleak. Even if her life can be saved, it is hard to say.
Calming down and carefully weighing the pros and cons, Ye Ming finally decided to compromise.
She softened her tone and said to Hu Xing, "Since... since it's Mr. Hu Jingwei's intention, then I'll agree to come down. I'll book a plane ticket right away and return to Lian Island."
When Hu Xing saw Ye Ming finally bowed his head, he immediately changed his face and laughed, "That's right. Miss Ye is so cooperative, our Hu family will not forget, and there will definitely be heavy thanks in the future."
Although Ye Ming was very angry about Hu Xing's arrangement, at the same time, he was also intensely curious about Zhao Rui.
Why do people like Hu Xing and Hu Jingwei, who are at the top of the pyramid, value a small gambling manager so much?
But also at any cost, repeatedly invited her, a popular movie queen, to approach and win over!
So she asked, "Boss Hu, who the hell is Zhao Rui? You and Mr. Hu Jingwei think so highly of him!"
On the other end of the phone, Hu Xing smiled slyly. "It's up to you, Miss Ye. Ask Zhao Rui. I'll be at the Pooh Casino tonight. I'll be waiting for you."
After saying that, Hu Xing hung up the phone.
Ye Ming held his phone and was stunned for a long time. Then he slammed the phone onto the ground and shouted angrily at the agent, "Book me a flight ticket back to Lian Island immediately!"
Hearing this, her agent's eyes widened in surprise. "Back to Lian Island? Your work schedule is full these days. Where did you get the time to return to Lian Island?"
"If you can postpone it, postpone it! If you can't postpone it, cancel it!"
"We have already signed the contract for those advertisements and endorsements. If we cancel them, we will have to accompany a large sum of money! Moreover, if this reputation is spread out, it will affect your future advertising endorsements!" The agent really couldn't understand, "Why did you suddenly make such a crazy decision? What are you going to do back to Lian Island? What is more important than your job?"
"Of course there is." Ye Ming rushed to the agent and squeezed out a fake smile. "That is to go to the casino to gamble money."
Hearing this, the agent almost fainted. "You gave up so many jobs just to go to the casino? Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy, it's normal." Ye Ming picked up an apple and bit it fiercely to vent the gloomy anger in his heart. "The crazy one is the boss of Viney Resort, Hu Xing, and his boss, Hu Jingwei. They will accompany the loss. As for why, you can ask them directly."
The agent immediately shut his mouth.
That was not a big shot she was able to provoke.
