NFBE Chapter 1166 Da Bao's Achilles' Heel
Chapter 1166 Da Bao's Achilles' Heel
Long Sihai's face immediately darkened. This wasn't entirely his fault. He was in Southeast Asia at the time, and only upon returning home did he learn that his sworn brother, Fu Laorong, had disappeared, and that his son, Fu Nianzu, had been sent to a brothel as a male prostitute by Funakoshi Michiko, the Black Dragon Society's top female instructor.
He also made a bet with someone and gave Fu Nianzu an excessive amount of aphrodisiacs. As a result, Fu Nianzu did indeed set a record, seducing sixteen widows before finally dying from exhaustion.
When Long Sihai found out, he just smiled and treated it as a joke. Not to mention him, even his master wouldn't dare to easily provoke Funakoshi Michiko.
Long Sihai looked past He Xin and focused on Da Bao, then chuckled.
"This must be the elusive Young Master Qin, right? I've heard you're the mastermind behind Macau. I sent Henri René to the casino to force you out, but I'm so lucky to have actually run into you."
"So, Young Master Qin? As the old saying goes, what's done at the gambling table should be settled at the gambling table. Since you won this hotel at the gambling table, it's not unreasonable for me to win it back from you, is it?"
Da Bao lazily stood up, put his arm around Zuo Mingyue's waist, and glanced at Long Sihai with disdain.
"You mean you want to make a bet with me?"
Long Sihai smiled slightly, took off his top hat, revealing a neatly combed slicked-back hairstyle, and gently dusted off the dust on the top hat.
"Straightforward and outspoken, that's good. I'd like to make a bet with you. What do you say? Are you in or not?"
Da Bao grinned, a wicked smile on his face. This kind of smile would never be dared to appear in China, otherwise he would be mistaken for a demon and beaten to death.
"You think you can just gamble like that? Do you even have the money? Do you know how many chips it takes to gamble with me?"
Long Sihai hesitated. People like them who made a living through gambling didn't have much money of their own, except for their wealthy backers. However, since he dared to ask, he must have a backup plan.
Mr. He!
Just then, a strange laugh rang out, filled with arrogance and domineering. With the laugh, a man in a white suit and a floral scarf swaggered in, followed by four burly bodyguards.
Upon seeing this person, He Xin's face darkened, and he whispered something in Da Bao's ear.
"Boss, this man is Ho Sai-ming, the youngest son of the Ho family, one of the four most prominent families in Hong Kong. His father was Sir Robert Ho Sai. After Sir Robert Ho Sai passed away five or six years ago, his family's assets were worth HK$15 billion, which was divided equally among his three sons and two daughters. Ho Sai-ming received HK$2 billion, two companies, and several properties."
This He Shiming is known for his arrogance and domineering nature, and he has a penchant for keeping celebrities as mistresses; he's a notorious playboy in Hong Kong.
Da Bao narrowed his eyes. The Ho family? This is the most legendary family in Hong Kong. Its history isn't long; it was founded by Sir Robert Ho Sai, Ho Sai-ming's father. The marine and fire insurance companies in Hong Kong are the Ho family's businesses. These were the earliest insurance companies in Hong Kong, and they were monopolized by the Ho family.
Furthermore, Jardine Matheson, the largest trading company in Hong Kong, was also owned by the Ho family. Sir Robert Hosey had also served as the chairman of the board of directors of HSBC, which shows how prestigious the Ho family was in Hong Kong.
"So, his family is very rich."
He Xin nodded, and He Shiming's eyes fell on Zuo Mingyue, his gaze lighting up. This wasn't surprising; few people had seen Zuo Mingyue without being stunning.
Long Sihai walked quickly to He Shiming, bowed slightly, and whispered about the gambling.
He Shiming laughed heartily, and he kept looking at Zuo Mingyue.
"Money is not a problem, but I want you to win her over."
This guy was always arrogant and loud, so everyone present heard him. Da Bao's face immediately darkened. These idiots were really giving them a hard time; they were all eyeing Zuo Mingyue.
These idiots really don't know that Da Bao has two Achilles' heel, and anyone who touches them is doomed: Niu Niu and Zuo Mingyue. Even Wenwen and Nuannuan have to take a backseat.
Da Bao lightly jumped up, placed one foot on the gambling table, and kicked He Shiming away in mid-air. He only used two-tenths of his strength in this kick. He Shiming fell to the ground, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, which contained two large teeth.
He Shiming had never suffered such humiliation in his life. He screamed.
"Kill him! Kill him!"
His four bodyguards roared and charged forward. Da Bao curled his lip; these guys, who relied on hard-earned skills, were no different from three-year-old children in front of him.
Da Bao, now enraged, unleashed a barrage of punches, one after another. In just four punches, He Shiming's four bodyguards were crippled and lay on the ground, unable to get up.
This stunned everyone. They never expected that a delicate-looking, slender young man could knock out two-meter-tall bodyguards with a single punch, leaving them unable to get up. They didn't even know that the bodyguards were now crippled and would never be able to stand up again.
He Shiming was scared. This kind of person only knew how to bully others by relying on his money and power. When it really came down to it, he was the most timid.
Long Sihai was also startled. He was a martial arts expert, but he could easily defeat one bodyguard, fight two to a draw, and take a beating from three, let alone four.
Now, seeing Da Bao easily take down four bodyguards, he knew that his kung fu was far inferior to Da Bao's. Long Sihai was a smart man, so he quickly helped He Shiming up and whispered something in his ear.
"Young Master He, this is a master of internal martial arts. We definitely can't beat him by force. Let's stick to the original plan and win his underwear at the gambling table. When he's desperate from losing, we can use a little trick and he'll naturally offer up this woman."
Upon seeing Zuo Mingyue, He Shiming was completely captivated and immediately nodded in agreement.
Long Sihai straightened up, put his top hat on his head, and flashed his signature smile.
"Young Master Qin, how many chips do you need to gamble with me on this?"
Da Bao opened his palm and shook it.
Long Sihai said with a smile,
"Fifty million, no problem."
Da Bao curled his lip and said disdainfully.
"Get out of my way right now! Fifty million? Do you think I'm playing house with you? It's five hundred million!"
"What? Five hundred million?"
Not only was Long Sihai stunned, but even He Shiming was stunned. This bet actually cost him a quarter of his fortune.
"Aren't you going to find out? How much money did Fu Nianzu lose to me back then? And how much is this hotel worth? Fifty million? How can you even say that?"
