Chapter 258 What Do You Think?
In the surveillance video, Zhao Keke did run away in a panic, still holding a bag with a bonus of 200,000 yuan in his hand.
Ye Tianlong leaned on the chair in the office and fixed the video on Zhao Keke's face, as if he wanted to capture something from her expression.
Chen Ling'er leaned over, with a hint of anxiety on her face: "After you were called away by Mr. Lin, Keke said she would come in to water your flowers, but she didn't come out for a long time."
"I was worried something would happen to her, so I knocked on the door and came in."
Chen Ling'er told Ye Tianlong what she saw as objectively and truthfully as possible: "I happened to see her take out the money bag from your drawer, and her face was very ugly."
"I asked her what was wrong, but she didn't answer me. She just rushed out of the office with the bag and dropped a wad of money when she passed me."
Hua Ruyu next to her brought up 10,000 yuan.
Ye Tianlong didn't even look at the stack of money, he just looked at Chen Ling'er and Hua Ruyu: "You are her best friends, do you believe she took the money and ran away?"
The two women shook their heads together: "I don't believe it."
Chen Ling'er further explained: "Although Keke's family is a little poorer, she has always been strong and ambitious and will not be tempted by money."
"If she really wanted money, she would have been taken care of by a few wealthy people when she was in college. They gave her a house and a car worth more than 200,000 yuan."
Hua Ruyu also nodded: "Yes, two hundred thousand is a lot, but it's not much. But we won't run away with the money. Our friendship goes beyond this money."
Ye Tianlong took a sip of tea: "She must have had an emergency and encountered difficulties. Look at her face, she has guilt, anger, sadness, and all kinds of emotions, but she doesn't have the guilty conscience."
"You two, call her immediately and tell her to come back to discuss anything."
Hua Ruyu spread her hands: "Ling'er and I made more than a dozen calls, but she didn't answer any of them, and she even turned off her phone in the end."
Chen Ling'er also looked depressed: "I didn't reply to the WeChat text message."
Ye Tianlong frowned slightly, then dialed Zhao Keke's number and called him. The phone was turned off but no one answered.
Just when Ye Tianlong was about to send a WeChat message, a text message came in first. It was Zhao Keke: "Minister Ye, I'm sorry, I took your money."
"If I have the opportunity in the future, if I make money, I will definitely return it to you."
Ye Tianlong sighed softly: "This woman..."
With a wave of his finger, he asked Chen Ling'er and Hua Ruyu to continue sending WeChat messages to Zhao Keke. Zhao Keke turned off and on his phone, and still had money. He probably wanted to contact people, so he would not shut down completely for the time being.
So he quickly called Baili Bing a number, reported Zhao Keke's mobile phone and asked for her location.
In less than a minute, Baili Bing sent a link. Ye Tianlong opened it, and a red dot on it was moving on the map.
He glanced at the intersection less than four streets away from the company.
"You two stay in the company and watch over me."
Ye Tianlong picked up his coat and went out: "I'll get Zhao Keke back."
The two women nodded and wanted to go together, but they were worried and said, "Minister Ye, be careful."
Ye Tianlong said hello to Lin Chenxue and went out, and then sent a text message to Han Qinhu.
An hour and a half later, the sunshine was just right at a three-story Chunfeng Bar in Nanhua District. Several tall men were leaning against the door, smoking cigarettes and talking excitedly.
Occasionally, they turned their heads and glanced inside the bar, with ambiguous and obscene smiles, as if something interesting was happening inside.
At this moment, a young girl came over, stood in front of four tall men, and spoke word by word:
"I am Zhao Keke, the daughter of Zhao Dadiao, and I am here to redeem them."
When several people who were smoking heard this, they all raised their heads. When they saw the beautiful Zhao Keke, their eyes suddenly lit up. The leading sharp-mouthed man did not respond directly, but smiled and said:
"Little sister, are you here to redeem Zhao Dadao and his wife? Do you have money? They owe 300,000 yuan."
"Do you have three hundred thousand with you?"
He looked at Zhao Keke and smiled: "If not, it doesn't matter, you can put yourself on the line."
"Shut up!"
Zhao Keke's pretty face was cold: "Will you take me to see them? If you do, please stop talking nonsense. If you don't take me, I'll leave."
What a fierce horse!
The few wretched guys were all stunned, as if they didn't expect Zhao Keke to be so domineering. They couldn't guess whether she had a backer, and they didn't dare to make another mistake at the moment.
The sharp-tongued man twitched the corner of his mouth: "Follow me, I'll take you to see Boss Lei."
The second floor of Chunfeng Bar.
This place is more suitable to be called a gambling stall than a bar. The second floor is filled with all kinds of gambling equipment, including slot machines, dice, and mahjong.
The owner of the bar is named Lei Jiuzhi. It is said that he is a very skilled gambler. He was very famous in Southeast Asia more than ten years ago.
He has won the Macao Main Board's gaming industry competition for seven consecutive years, winning the championship three times, earning a lot of fame and money.
But later on, during a huge bet, he was tricked into losing the most important game. Not only were his years of savings wiped out, but one of his fingers was also chopped off by his opponent.
His name was also changed to Lei Jiuzhi from then on, reminding him that he had lost a finger.
No one knows how he leaked to Mingjiang, or in other words, people are always not very interested in people who are eliminated.
In short, Lei Jiuzhi is retiring in Mingjiang. He lost a finger, but he did not quit gambling. He also established a small gambling stall and a small bar through connections, recruited a group of people, and lived a free and easy life.
He was somewhat capable, so the Ax Gang and the Dragon Gang didn't try to harm him.
At this moment, he was devouring steak, holding a bottle of red wine in his right hand, and there were seven or eight pieces of beef next to him. This was his lunch.
Three kilograms of meat and two kilograms of wine were standard meals for Lei Jiuzhi. Even though he was a little fat, he knew in his heart that he could still overwhelm a cow.
"Brother, the daughter of Zhao Dadai and his wife is here."
When Lei Jiuzhi finished chewing the third piece of steak, the sharp-tongued man appeared with Zhao Keke. The girl's brightness and tenderness made Lei Jiuzhi's eyes brighten.
There was also a surge of heat in his Dantian. Women, especially young women, were very fatal to men like him.
Lei Jiuzhi blew out a breath: "Are you Zhao Dadai's daughter?"
"My parents owe you three hundred thousand."
Zhao Keke, who had a look of panic on his face, determined that Lei Jiuzhi was the leader, and immediately took out a bag and threw it over, shouting:
"There are 190,000 here. You take it first. I will return the rest to you in a week. You must release my parents quickly, or I will call the police and kidnap you."
"And I want to warn you not to lend money to my parents again. I won't pay back the money next time."
The bag fell to the ground and the red banknotes were exposed. Lei Jiuzhi didn't even look at it. He picked up the fourth piece of steak and said with a smile:
"As expected, she is a filial daughter. Her parents owe a debt of 300,000 yuan. It is really rare. These days, children who do not nibble on their old age are rare animals, let alone children who repay their nurturing."
"I appreciate your actions."
Lei Jiuzhi waved his finger and asked someone to bring Zhao Dadao and the others out: "In this case, I will give you a chance."
"As long as you agree to be my woman, not only will I not ask for your remaining 110,000, I will also give you the 190,000 as a betrothal gift. In addition, I will help your parents get rid of their gambling addiction."
"You know, if their gambling addiction doesn't stop for a day, you will be dragged to death by them sooner or later. If I don't lend money to them, someone else will lend it to them."
Lei Jiuzhi took a bite of the steak, as if he was chewing on Zhao Keke's thigh, and his mouth was full of oil:
"Miss Zhao, what do you think?"
