If you want to be a good person, find Huadi
Chapter 67 The Taibao is missing
The sun shines on the earth, and all things begin to wake up. Liu Yi stretched and walked out of the room, but found that JOJO was not in the living room. JOJO did not appear in front of him until breakfast time was over. Liu Yi curiously asked JOJO where she had been last night, but JOJO smiled mysteriously and did not answer. According to JOJO's personality, she must be busy with Huadi's affairs, and she did not want Liu Yi to know in advance and wanted to give him a surprise. Liu Yi gently stroked JOJO's hair, smiling without saying a word. If Huadi was a few years older, this scene would be a heartwarming picture between father and daughter. However, in fact, Liu Yi is over two hundred years old, and this kind of pampering is more like the love of a great-grandfather for his descendants.
Last night, Liu Yi had completed all the handover matters, and now he could finally relax. Lei Luo suggested that he stay in Canada with Jojo and enjoy some quality time. Recently, the problems with Laba and Ma Chao had been constantly plaguing Liu Yi, leaving him restless all day. Furthermore, the series of events in Macau had also left Liu Yi exhausted. Now that these troubles had been resolved, Liu Yi hoped to take a break and rest. After all, once he returned to Hong Kong, he would be faced with a host of new tasks, and he would not forget his mission.
Just when Liu Yi and JOJO were enjoying their time alone, Qi Ge suddenly called. He only said one thing on the phone: Tai Bao had disappeared! As for the specific circumstances, Liu Yi would need to return to Hong Kong to find out more. After hearing the news, Liu Yi couldn't help but feel worried. Apart from Qi Ge, Tai Bao was arguably his closest brother, and he decided to rush back to Hong Kong as soon as possible to find out what had happened to Tai Bao. However, JOJO looked at Liu Yi with a resentful look, and was very reluctant to see him leave. Despite this, Liu Yi resolutely boarded the next flight to Hong Kong. JOJO had originally wanted to give Liu Yi a surprise, but this time she would have to wait until her next trip to Canada. JOJO couldn't accompany Liu Yi back to Hong Kong because she was still studying and was preparing for next year's Hong Kong Diploma Examination, hoping to be admitted to the University of Hong Kong together with Liu Yi through overseas channels.
This time, Liu Yi didn't take Guo Yingnan's private jet back to Hong Kong, as he had on his previous trip to Canada. Guo was incredibly busy, and he rushed back to Hong Kong the day after his meeting with Minister Chen. Due to the urgency of his trip, even first-class tickets were sold out, forcing Liu Yi to settle for an economy class seat so cramped he couldn't even stretch his legs. This was Liu Yi's first experience of the cramped conditions of economy class in nearly a century.
Economy class wasn't new to Liu Yi. In his first life, he'd been a tormented worker, tormented by the 996 work schedule, ineligible for business class. But he hadn't flown economy class since his first time traveling. This time, returning to it was a chance to reminisce about his days as a social worker. While the space was a bit cramped, he was fortunate to have a talkative young man sitting next to him, so the journey wasn't boring.
This young man, who bore a passing resemblance to Lao Jia, was a gifted speaker, his topics ranging from astronomy and geography to history and politics, even physics and mathematics. His breadth of knowledge was astonishing, especially his intimate knowledge of gambling, offering unique insights into its various forms and rules. However, judging by his modest attire and the fact that he was traveling in economy class, Liu Yi inferred that his financial situation was precarious. It was likely that he had lost all his wealth gambling, unable to continue living in Canada, and had returned to Hong Kong to live with relatives.
Sure enough, when he introduced his name to Huadi as Zhuo Shangwen when he got off the plane, Liu Yi had already guessed who he was, so Liu Yi left him his contact information and also asked for Zhuo Shangwen's contact information.
Zhuo Shangwen is the undisputed protagonist of the classic Hong Kong drama "Heaven and Earth," a story of family feuds. His story is simple: a compulsive gambler who not only lost the inheritance left to him by his relatives but also lost his girlfriend's father's supermarket. He returns to Hong Kong to seek refuge with his father, hoping to borrow money to redeem the supermarket. His father, a self-proclaimed righteous man, willing to help anyone who asks for help, is also broke, leaving Zhuo Shangwen stranded in Hong Kong, trying to figure out a solution. Later, he encounters his nemesis, Cheng Jiaming. Shangwen not only causes Jiaming to lose years of savings, but also indirectly causes her to be abandoned by her fiancé! Of course, Jiaming was right to leave her scumbag fiancé. Then there is the grievances and hatreds of a wealthy family. The relationships in it are really messy. The mother of Jiaming and her two siblings was raped by the wealthy boss Gan Shupei and gave birth to a son. However, because her mother hated the wealthy boss very much, she treated her youngest son very badly, and then sent the son she and her husband gave birth to back to the wealthy family. This was not too messy. When Shangwen and Jiaming were about to get married, Shangwen's girlfriend died of cancer. Shangwen was once depressed, and Jiaming and Shangwen also ended their relationship. At this time, the wealthy boss's younger brother Gan Shusheng fell in love with his secretary Jiaming. However, Gan Shusheng had been in a relationship with Jiaming's sister Jiahui before and had a son. He only found out that he and Jiahui had a son the night before he and Jiaming got married, and this news was told to him by Shangwen. In the end, the uncle married his niece (not blood-related), and Gan Shupei's second daughter fell in love with Shangwen. In the end, she committed suicide due to depression because she could not get love. The various grievances and hatreds in the story are very complicated, but what Liu Yi values is not these bloody plots, but Zhuo Shangwen's keen intuition in finance, which will be of great help to him in the future, so he left Shangwen's contact information.
As soon as Liu Yi got off the plane and walked out of the waiting hall, he saw Ah Hao and a few of his men standing at the door waiting. Liu Yi walked towards them.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two got in the car together and headed to Seventh Brother's home.
On the way, Ah Hao told Liu Yi what happened in detail:
"Taibao had originally agreed to accompany Huadi to Canada, but he couldn't go because he had to host his nephew who was visiting from the mainland. The problem then arose because of the nephew."
"Oh? What happened to his nephew?" Liu Yi asked curiously.
"His nephew is called Xingzai, and I heard he has special abilities." Ah Hao said, "Then, for some reason, Xingzai suddenly had the idea of becoming a disciple of the God of Gamblers. Coincidentally, the God of Gamblers' successor, Chen Xiaodao, returned to Hong Kong at that time, so Taibao took Xingzai to meet Chen Xiaodao. Then, things happened..."
"What's the matter?" Liu Yi asked.
"Xingzai's special ability suddenly disappeared. Taibao told Qige about it when he called him. Taibao also disappeared, and no one knows where Xingzai is now." Ah Hao sighed helplessly.
Soon, the car arrived at Qi Ge's house. Qi Ge and Ah Hao had sent many people to look for Tai Bao and Xing Zai in the past two days, but there was no news. When Liu Yi heard the names Xing Zai, Chen Xiaodao, and God of Gamblers, he knew this was the plot of "God of Gamblers". Now he was temporarily relieved that Tai Bao would not be in danger for the time being.
