Chen Yaohui is so naive!
"Did you see Song Zhui?" Gao Jianfei asked with a smile.
Just as Gao Jianfei had predicted, Chen Yaohui's face showed extreme disappointment and resentment. "That Song Zhui is really arrogant! He instructed his men to ignore my eager visits and not even see me! Damn it, this Hushi is Dongxing's territory, and this kid Song Zhui comes to our territory to act wild and show off. It's really... really frustrating! I haven't even seen him, let alone given him a red envelope or any hospitality! Damn it, this Song Zhui seems to have even more airs than Young Master Feng... If he doesn't want to see me, I won't bother with him anymore!"
In fact, Chen Yaohui had no reason to be upset. Not to mention him, Wu Youcun and Hu Zi, among others, had also been turned away by Song Zhui. They were all extremely frustrated.
Chen Yaohui is not involved in the gambling industry, so he doesn't have a deep understanding of the Song family's influence and power. That's why he resents Song Zhui's high profile.
After composing himself, Chen Yaohui continued, "Jianfei, let's put aside the referee Song Zhui for now, and I'll tell you about some of the rules for the competition on the 21st."
"Okay. Go ahead." Gao Jianfei also focused his attention.
Chen Yaohui explained, "Jianfei, it's like this: the competition that day will be completely closed! That is to say, during the competition, apart from the two participating teams, the representatives of the forces behind them, and the referees, no other unrelated people will be allowed to enter the casino to watch the competition. Therefore, on the day of the competition, I will deploy a large number of my men to block off the casino, and even the entire Brilliant Avenue, and not allow any unauthorized personnel to enter."
"Well, that's fine too." Gao Jianfei nodded. Subconsciously, Gao Jianfei had been somewhat reluctant to have a large crowd watching the match. After all, his public identity was that of a migrant worker from G province, and he considered himself an ordinary, low-key person. The idea of being in the spotlight, under the gaze of thousands, and gambling against others was a role reversal he couldn't easily adapt to. Therefore, hearing Chen Yaohui say that spectators would be excluded from the match, Gao Jianfei felt somewhat relieved.
"Also, Jianfei, although the casino is not open to the public on the day of the match, the World Gambling Association will record the entire match and archive it. Of course, these match recordings are sealed by the Gambling Association, and ordinary people cannot obtain the video recordings through normal channels," Chen Yaohui added.
"You want to record the whole match?" Gao Jianfei frowned. He was a little annoyed... Once the entire match was recorded, every detail of Gao Jianfei's performance would be thoroughly analyzed by the World Gambling Association afterwards!
Chen Yaohui was also quite helpless about this, saying, "This is a rule established by the World Gambling Association many years ago. I have no right to stop them from doing so."
"Alright then!" Gao Jianfei didn't have much to say, and nodded. "Anyway, Yaohui, don't worry, I will win by force!"
"Okay! Anyway, Jianfei, I've always supported you! I have a lot of faith in you! These next few days, just relax and don't put so much pressure on yourself. If you want a woman, just give me a call, and I'll arrange one for you!" Chen Yaohui chuckled. "Jianfei, you have to know, women are a great remedy for stress. By the way, that Chen Xian is actually quite nice, with a perfect figure and face. You've probably tried her, right? I bet she's quite good, otherwise you wouldn't still keep her around."
On the eve of the big battle, Chen Yaohui didn't mind telling Gao Jianfei some jokes, just to lighten the mood.
Gao Jianfei didn't bother to explain himself to Chen Yaohui. He couldn't possibly act like a shy little boy and explain to Chen Yaohui that he had never slept with Chen Xian and had no physical contact with her.
As Chen Yaohui was leaving, he unnecessarily stopped Chen Xian in the living room and instructed her, "Miss Chen Xian, you are now Jianfei's woman, and I hope you will be gentle and considerate towards him. You need to know one thing: it is your blessing to be Jianfei's woman!"
After saying that, Chen Yaohui turned and left. Chen Xian stood there, blushing, gritting her teeth, her eyes watery, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe—always, quite sweet.
Flower market. Hu Zi's hotel.
In the suite with the beard.
Wu Youcun has returned to his suite to rest. These past few days, he's been experiencing some pre-match tension. Although he's brimming with confidence for the match, that doesn't mean he can be completely careless about it!
The key point is that, although Wu Youcun participated in hundreds of professional matches throughout his life, he never wagered his hands!
Even in this brutal instance, the stakes were merely the ring finger of his right hand. This was far more brutal than his battle with Gao Jianfei three days later!
Therefore, Wu Youcun has been going to bed early and getting up early these past few days to adjust his state.
At this moment, Hu Zi and Tang Wenjun were sitting on the sofa in the suite's living room, smoking and chatting.
"So, Wenjun, I asked you to investigate the backgrounds of 'Xiao Gao' and 'Chen Xian.' Have you taken care of that for me?" Hu Zi flicked the ash from his cigarette and asked.
Tang Wenjun smiled and said, "Brother Beard, these are all minor matters. As I said, I'm currently managing the company's personnel affairs for Feilong. If I need to check the files of two employees, it's just a matter of using the computer."
After a brief smile, Tang Wenjun's expression turned serious, as if he were doing a very proper job. "Chen Xian, 22 years old, native of Qiushi, G Province, lost her mother at a young age and settled in Huashi with her father. According to her records, she is just an ordinary college graduate. Alice Company was her first job after graduation."
"Well, what about 'Xiao Gao'?" Hu Zi asked with concern.
Chapter 105 Seven Candidates
Chapter 105 Seven Candidates
Flower market.
In the suite of the hotel that Hu Zi had booked, a fanatical flame blazed in his eyes. "Wenjun, you must have found out about 'Xiao Gao's' background, right? Someone like him can't be without a history! Although, perhaps, all the files he provided at Feilong Company are fake, we can still find clues in those fake documents!"
Without a doubt, Gao Jianfei is a thorn in the side of Hu Zi! A thorn that must be removed!
This world really is so small. Two people who didn't know each other before would run into each other again and again, and each time the encounter was not pleasant!
Gao Jianfei stopped Hu Zi from retaliating against Yan Kui and his daughter; he thwarted Hu Zi's plan to send assassins to attack Liu Feng and Chen Yaohui; at the Dongxing headquarters, Gao Jianfei once again saved Liu Feng's life! Even when Hu Zi hired gambling experts to deal with Dongxing, Gao Jianfei intervened again!
Could this be the legendary nemesis?
At this moment, Tang Wenjun's eye muscles twitched slightly. "Brother Beard, I'm sorry, the company does have 'Xiao Gao's' file on file, but... his file is too simple. You could say it's a completely worthless file! Because the entire file only has one name... 'Gao Jianfei'. Just a name. No educational certificates, no resume, no ID number, not even a contact number!"
"Uh..." Hu Zi hesitated, "Is it really that strange?"
Tang Wenjun slowly stood up, took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, took out two wine glasses, poured two glasses of wine, and returned to the sofa.
He and Hu Zi started drinking together.
“Brother Beard, you have to understand, Feilong’s business is huge. His management style is already in line with international standards. And every time Feilong hires an employee, the relevant departments in the company strictly control the process. I find it hard to understand why 'Gao Jianfei’s' detailed information is not in the company’s personnel department’s archives. For a large international company, this is simply an absurd thing!” Tang Wenjun took a sip of wine and said slowly, “After thinking about it for a long time, I finally understand… 'Gao Jianfei' is not an ordinary person. I mean, he must have an extremely close relationship with Feilong! You can understand it this way: 'Gao Jianfei' was personally arranged by Feilong to work at Alice Company. Therefore, 'Gao Jianfei' did not register with the company’s personnel department.”
“Gao Jianfei? Feilong?” Bearded man took a big gulp of wine. “Interesting, really interesting. Wenjun, find a way to investigate this ‘Gao Jianfei’.”
"Heh, I will, Brother Beard." Tang Wenjun smiled as he placed his wine glass on the coffee table. Then, his smiling face instantly twisted into a ferocious grimace. "I will investigate everyone connected to Feilong thoroughly! From the very beginning! Besides, that 'Gao Jianfei,' I absolutely must investigate him! Brother Beard, think about it, would Feilong just randomly assign someone like Gao Jianfei to a small company as an ordinary white-collar worker? Feilong isn't an idiot. His greatest strength is his ability to recognize and utilize talent. Therefore, there must be some hidden secrets between him and Gao Jianfei!" Tang Wenjun's eyes... His horn muscles twitched uncontrollably. "My dad started killing people when he was a kid, dancing on the edge of a knife for decades. In the end, Feilong cleaned up his act, built his own company, his own career, and a good social reputation. But my dad is still killing people! Still living in constant fear, worried about being arrested by the cops, or being killed by other gang leaders... Why? Is this fate? If this is fate, then I will personally shatter this unfair fate! Feilong is too cunning. He must have a conspiracy to place someone like Gao Jianfei in his company! Definitely!"
Tang Wenjun's meticulously sculpted, handsome face seemed to be twitching irregularly and intermittently with every muscle in it.
Hu Zi's face also turned completely gloomy. "Wen Jun, do you mean that Fei Long recruited people like Gao Jianfei because he wanted to devour... the underground forces of Huashi?"
Suddenly, Tang Wenjun's shoulders trembled violently, and he let out a laugh that sounded more like crying. "Feilong, he already took a big piece of cake, and now he wants to take that ridiculous little crumb of bread from my dad... No, I swear, I won't let him succeed!"
"Hmm?" At this moment, Hu Zi seemed to have suddenly realized something. "Wait a minute! If Gao Jianfei really was sent by Feilong to deal with Zheng Bang and Tang Bao, then why did Gao Jianfei go to the Dongxing Casino to work? Could it be..."
"Feilong's ambitions don't stop at Huashi! He also wants to swallow up the underground forces in Hushi! Even... swallow up the entire underground forces in G Province!" Hu Zi and Tang Wenjun both shouted in unison!
At this moment, Beard looked somewhat worried. He rarely showed this attitude unless something truly distressing or unsettling happened.
"Damn it, damn it, what the hell!" Bearded muttered. "The mission I was given was to wipe out all the underground forces in the developed provinces of China. I never expected that a Flying Dragon and a Gao Jianfei would suddenly appear! Damn it!"
Suddenly, Hu Zi stood up from the sofa and kicked the coffee table, sending it flying. With a loud bang, the coffee table crashed into the wall of the opposite room.
"Brother Beard, calm down." Tang Wenjun stood up abruptly, his expression recovering quickly. His initial hysterical look had vanished, replaced by a calm one. "Brother Beard, you have to believe us. We have a powerful backer. What is Feilong? He'll only be dead if he fights us! And Gao Jianfei, no matter how strong he is, he's just one person. Dealing with him might be much easier than we think. At least, his battle with Wu Youcun on the 21st will be a hurdle for Gao Jianfei. If he loses, I think with his skills, he definitely won't accept defeat and cut off his hands. So… well, he'll run away. And from the moment he runs away, his death sentence is sealed! Because, in this world, no one has ever violated the rules of the World Gambling Association, challenged the authority of the Song family, and managed to escape alive."
“Hmm, Wenjun, you’re right.” Hu Zi gradually calmed down, sat back on the sofa, and took out a cigar to smoke. “By the way, originally, in order to ensure everything went smoothly, I wanted to talk to Song Zhui, the referee sent by the Song family this time, but that kid didn’t give me any face.”
“Brother Beard, I also had someone investigate Song Zhui’s background,” Tang Wenjun said with a smile. “Actually, Song Zhui is a rather notorious playboy in Canada’s upper-class social circles. He has one major characteristic, which is also a major bad habit… he’s obsessed with women!”
"Hmm? You're obsessed with lust?" Beard frowned.
Tang Wenjun smiled and said, "Yes, Brother Beard, you have to know that every man, especially those from noble families, or those with power and money, will have some quirks, more or less. For example, some like to collect watches, some like to collect sports cars, some like to collect fine wines, and some like to keep dogs. As for that Song Zhui, his quirk is that he is obsessed with women. In the upper circles of Canada, it is rumored that Young Master Song Zhui must have a woman with him every night. Moreover, his reputation in the upper echelons of Canadian society is not so good. Because he not only likes women, but he also plays rather perverse games. He has raped more than 50 women and seduced more than 50 other men's wives. He likes to use drugs and likes to have his men kidnap his prey, lock them in the basement, and let him ravage them. Some people say that when Young Master Song Zhui is out shopping, if he sees a woman he likes, he will forcefully grab her and then... Well, in general, Young Master Song Zhui is still very excellent in other aspects, but he is fanatical and perverse when it comes to women."
After a pause, Tang Wenjun added, "If it weren't for the fact that his surname is Song, and that he's one of Old Master Song Qian's favorite grandsons, he probably would have died at least 135 times by now."
"Hmm? A womanizer? From what you're saying, he really is a womanizer. I don't think that's a good habit." Bearded man looked at Tang Wenjun meaningfully.
Tang Wenjun nodded. "Brother Beard, we can take advantage of Young Master Song Zhui's perverted hobby to win him over. If we can establish a friendship with Young Master Song Zhui, it will be very beneficial to our future development. Befriending the direct descendants of the Song family is of immeasurable benefit to any power in this world!"
The night of the 18th.
After seeing Chen Yaohui off, Gao Jianfei took a walk in the open garden with Chen Xian. He seemed to enjoy this feeling.
The night view of Lake City is beautiful and gentle, like a graceful maiden draped in a light veil.
The open-air garden behind the hotel suites, with its subtle fragrance, exudes a tranquil, harmonious, and beautiful atmosphere. Anyone in such an environment would find it easy to feel good.
So, in this kind of environment, how would you feel taking a walk with a young, beautiful, and charming girl?
Gao Jianfei preferred taking walks in environments like Chen Xian's.
Neither of them spoke much; they simply walked slowly. They didn't hold hands or engage in any intimate gestures, but there was a tacit understanding between them.
After their walk, Gao Jianfei and Chen Xian tacitly returned to their suite, took showers, and went to their bedrooms to rest and sleep.
Chen Xian returned to her bedroom, feeling joyful and relaxed. She threw herself onto the soft bed, her face fixed on the ceiling, her expression sweet and happy. She thought to herself that she had suffered a lot in the past, and in those times, she almost sold her body! But, in some mysterious way, God sent a man into her world!
From then on, she said goodbye to a life of suffering, and everything she felt now was happiness and joy.
"Jianfei, this is what I want, to spend my whole life with you!" Chen Xian said wistfully.
As for Gao Jianfei, after returning to his bedroom, he began to ponder his ambiguous and complicated relationship with Chen Xian. He felt somewhat confused, yet also a little sweet. However, Gao Jianfei's attention was quickly drawn away from this sweet feeling.
He turned on the virtual display screen and glanced at it...
The exorcism point has been restored to '857'.
Looking at my phone again, it was already past midnight on the 19th!
In other words, if we start counting from this time, there are still 2 days left before his battle with Wu Youcun!
"Damn it! Time seems to be running out!" Gao Jianfei exclaimed inwardly. Without further ado, he simply focused his mind...
"Enter the den of ghosts!"
With a flash of light, Gao Jianfei immediately left the soft bed and went to a place with unusual lighting, but which he felt was safe and comfortable in... Ghost Den Floor 1!
"Dear user, welcome to Ghost Den," the AI program's voice said faithfully as always.
"Well, when I left last time, I asked you to select some Level 2 ghosts who are good at eyesight and speed. Do you have an answer yet?" Gao Jianfei asked urgently.
"Yes, esteemed user, it is my duty to fulfill your wishes!" the intelligent program's voice sounded. "After you left last time, I immediately entered the database and carried out a process according to your requirements. After screening, I selected 7 Level 2 demons who are skilled in eye speed and eyesight for you. Of course, there are many Level 2 demons in the database who are skilled in eye speed and eyesight, but the 7 that I selected for you are the most outstanding among them."
"Seven of them? That's not bad." Gao Jianfei breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"Well, esteemed user, please listen to me. Of these seven Level 2 ghosts skilled in observation, not a single virtual Level 2 ghost was selected this time! This time, I have chosen four Level 2 ghosts who died in the real world, and three historical figures for you. Of course, this does not mean that all virtual Level 2 ghosts are inferior in observation to real-world Level 2 ghosts and historical figures. What I mean is that among the top Level 2 ghosts in terms of observation, no virtual Level 2 ghosts are included." The AI program's voice provided a brief explanation.
Gao Jianfei nodded, indicating that he understood. "I know what you mean. Perhaps, in the category of Level 3 ghosts, those with keen eyesight, virtual ghosts might have the upper hand. However, I don't have the authority to deal with them right now. Let's not worry about other things for now. Just these 7 Level 2 ghosts with keen eyesight, 4 real-life dead, and 3 historical figures, tell me how many exorcism points each of them will require, so I have a general idea."
Chapter 106 Little Li Guang Hua Rong
Chapter 106 Little Li Guang Hua Rong
The intelligent program naturally responded to Gao Jianfei's question immediately...
"Dear user, among the seven candidate Level 2 ghosts, four are real-world Level 2 ghosts whose professions in life required extremely high vision and eyesight. They were, in essence, elites in their respective fields! Their required exorcism points are 500, 650, 700, and 820 respectively. The three historical figures' skills are also related to vision, eyesight, and eye speed; their required exorcism points are 600, 750, and 1000 respectively. As you can see, among the historical figure Level 2 ghosts skilled in eyesight, one, like the virtual Level 2 ghost Ke Zhen'e you previously contained, has reached the pinnacle of Level 2 ghosts! In other words, if you choose to contain this historical figure Level 2 ghost with 1000 exorcism points, you will possess your second peak Level 2 ghost!"
"Wait a minute, let me think about it." Gao Jianfei's mind was spinning rapidly, like a windmill. His thoughts were racing.
500, 650, 700, 820, 600, 750, 1000
This is the exorcism point needed for 7 level 2 Eyesight Ghosts!
At this moment, Gao Jianfei's exorcism points had recovered to 880.
In other words, Gao Jianfei is already able to deal with the other seven level-2 ghosts, except for the peak level-2 historical ghost!
Currently, Gao Jianfei is facing a dilemma: should he just make do with whatever ghost-exorcising points he has and use any level 2 ghost with good eyesight? Or should he wait a bit for a stronger level 2 ghost with good eyesight?
The intelligent program didn't pressure Gao Jianfei to make a quick choice. Gao Jianfei remained somewhat indecisive... Should I choose the better one, or the less desirable one?
If you want something less desirable, you can start working immediately! But if you want a better one, you'll have to wait! After all, we don't have enough exorcism points yet!
Lake City. A luxury business hotel located near the Lake City branch of the World Gambling Association.
For this match between Gao Jianfei and Wu Youcun, the head referee Song Zhui, along with five assistant referees and five bodyguards, stayed at this business hotel.
Outside the hotel, a large number of bodyguards had already laid in wait. Of course, this was Dongxing territory, so these bodyguards were all arranged by the Dongxing gang to protect Song Zhui. These bodyguards were all elite henchmen of the Dongxing gang!
