Chapter 38 - A High-Stakes Bet

n

nLiu Ming was betrayed by his expression. “Since you already know about it, I won’t say anything more.

n

n“Add Song Ci’s name to the project.”

n

nLiu Ming gave the order directly, so domineeringly that it was suffocating.

n

nYun Qing couldn’t help but think of Huo Chuan.

n

nHer eyes turned cold, and Yun Qing stood up. In her high heels, she was able to meet Liu Ming in the eye. “I’m sorry, I can’t agree to it.

n

n“Director Yun has already given me full authority over the project. You don’t have the authority to ask about it.

n

n“I think you don’t want to be investigated by Director Yun because you overstepped your authority, right?”

n

nYun Qing curled her lips and looked at Liu Ming as his expression changed.

n

nJust as she was about to leave, Liu Ming said faintly behind her, “Yun Qing, do you think Yun Zhe will protect you?

n

n“Do you know…”

n

n“I only know that CEO Yun will put the company’s interests first.”

n

nYun Qing interrupted Liu Ming coldly. Without wasting any more words, she strode away.

n

nThe sound of a teacup breaking rang in the office as expected.

n

nIt was an impatient, incompetent, and furious guy.

n

nYun Qing laughed mockingly. No wonder Song Ci could get him to be one of her handymen.

n

nThey were all useless people.

n

nYun Qing took out her private phone and dialed Yun Zhe’s number.

n

nYun Zhe, who was on a business trip across the ocean, picked up very quickly. “What’s wrong, Little Qing?

n

n“Did something happen to the company? Didn’t I tell you? As long as it doesn’t go bankrupt, you can do whatever you want.”

n

nYun Qing couldn’t help but laugh. “Brother, if the Yun Corporation goes bankrupt, our family will have to go to the northwest.”

n

n“It’s too early for you to get drunk,” Yun Zhe said dotingly.

n

nYun Qing was speechless. She coughed lightly and told him about Song Ci and Liu Ming.

n

nUnexpectedly, Yun Zhe only said three words lightly. “I got it.”

n

nYun Qing was stunned, but she immediately reacted. “You knew about it, didn’t you?”

n

nYun Qing heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, then you take care of it. I don’t have the time to interfere.”

n

n“Alright.” Yun Zhe suddenly thought of something. “Oh right, Xiao Qing, if you’re free, help me go to the Lawrence Casino and have a look. There’s something wrong with the accounts there.”

n

nYun Qing thought for a moment. She had already finished her work for the day. Since she had nothing else to do, she might as well get more involved with the Yun family’s business.

n

nShe agreed.

n

nAt night, the casino was shrouded in a pillar of light that shot up into the sky. In the brightly lit places, some people became rich overnight, while others went bankrupt overnight.

n

nYun Qing sat on the leather chair of the casino’s manager, Guan Yao. She flipped through the account book page by page, and from the corner of her eyes, she watched Guan Yao’s sweat ooze out.

n

nSuddenly, Yun Qing saw a familiar name in the account book.

n

n“Huo Qing?”

n

nYun Qing smiled slightly and looked at Guan Yao. “She owes 50 million?”

n

n“Aren’t you going to ask her for it?

n

n“President Guan, are you running a casino or a charity organization?”

n

n“Oh no, this casino belongs to the Yun family.”

n

nGuan Yao wiped his sweat frantically, and his handkerchief was soaked. “Vice President Yun, it’s not easy to chase after them.

n

n“This is a member of the Huo family… you know that.”

n

nAfter all, Yun Qing was Huo Chuan’s ex-wife and Huo Qing’s ex-sister-in-law.

n

n“Oh, I understand.” Yun Qing smiled and said, “You’re working for the Huo family, not the Yun family.”

n

nThese words were too harsh.

n

nGuan Yao did not dare to be negligent, but the Huo family and the Yun family were not people to offend.

n

nWhile gritting his teeth, Guan Yao said carefully, “Vice President Yun, Miss Huo is in the casino right now. Why don’t you… go and see for yourself?”

n

nYun Qing raised her eyebrows.

n

n“Sure.”

n

n..

n

nEver since she was dragged away by Huo Chuan, the more Huo Qing thought about it, the angrier she became. She had lost all face in her circle of sisters.

n

nTherefore, Miss Huo stepped on the gas pedal and went to the casino. As usual, she found her place at the poker table.

n

n“Raise, raise!”

n

nHuo Qing looked at the cards in her hand and shouted confidently.

n

nThe man on the other side of the poker table was livid. After hesitating for a while, he threw away the cards in his hand and shouted, “I’m not playing anymore.”

n

nThen, a well-dressed man sat across from Huo Qing.

n

n“A newcomer?”

n

nHuo Qing sized him up and the corners of her mouth curled up into a playful smile.

n

nIt seemed that she had won a lot today!

n

nThe man did not say a word. He handed out the cards one by one. Huo Qing had already earned ten million from this man.

n

nHuo Qing was getting more and more pleased. This time, she pushed all the chips out. “Fill it up!”

n

nHowever, when the cards were played, Huo Qing suffered a crushing defeat.

n

nThere was a total of 50 million, plus interest.

n

n“Motherf*cker, are you cheating?!”

n

nHuo Qing slapped the table and glared angrily at the man in front of her.

n

n“Miss Huo, you are not allowed to cause trouble in the casino.”
