“I am not that kind of person!”
Dongfang Mei smiled slightly, “Only if you marry me, become our Dongfang family’s son-in-law, will our Dongfang family help you. Otherwise, why would we help you!”
“Once you marry me, it will be legitimate for us to help.”
Jiang Yi was speechless.
“Alright, as long as you can find my sister, I will marry you.”
Jiang Yi took a deep breath.
He had to go all out to find his sister.
There was no other choice but to compromise.
He knew his sister was alive, but he didn’t know where she was.
Jiang Yi couldn’t bear this torment.
Seeing Jiang Yi agree, Dongfang Mei was overjoyed, a smile immediately appearing on her face.
“Since you’ve agreed, let’s sign the agreement!”
Dongfang Mei produced an agreement and handed it to Jiang Yi.
“What agreement?” Jiang Yi asked.
“I’m afraid you’ll renege, so I’ve specially prepared an agreement. With this agreement, once I find your sister, you won’t be able to back out!”
Dongfang Mei said charmingly.
“You prepared it long ago?” Jiang Yi asked.
“That’s right!”
Dongfang Mei smiled slightly, “Before I came to Li Du City, I had everything prepared, just waiting for you to agree.”
Jiang Yi took a deep breath.
It seemed Dongfang Mei had him completely in her grasp, otherwise, she wouldn’t have prepared an agreement in advance.
He felt like she was playing him like a puppet.
Jiang Yi said nothing further and signed his name on the agreement.
Dongfang Mei carefully put the agreement away.
“I’ll call my mother now and have her use all of the Dongfang family’s eyes and intelligence to help you find your sister. You just wait for my news!” Dongfang Mei said triumphantly.
Jiang Yi said nothing.
If Dongfang Mei could really find his sister, he didn’t care about anything else.
It was just marrying her, right?
That was easy.
Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Yi returned to his room.
After opening his suitcase, Jiang Yi took out the photograph.
If his sister was truly alive, she should be in college now, at least in her second year.
Looking at his sister in the photo, Jiang Yi’s eyes became a little moist.
The night passed without incident!
The next morning, as soon as Jiang Yi got out of bed, the property management arrived.
The property management informed Jiang Yi that a residence permit was required for the villa he had purchased, and since Jiang Yi was not a local resident, he had to obtain one.
Jiang Yi had no choice but to drive to get the residence permit.
He expected it to be troublesome, taking at least a whole day.
However, to his surprise, it only took an hour to get the residence permit.
Jiang Yi felt a craving for a cigarette and patted his pocket, realizing he had finished his pack.
Jiang Yi drove his car towards a side street.
Upon reaching the street, he discovered that it was lined with stone gambling shops, but fortunately, there was a convenience store.
Jiang Yi had no interest in stone gambling and, after picking up his cigarettes, prepared to drive away.
Suddenly, Jiang Yi spotted a familiar figure.
It was Shen Quan!
At that moment, Shen Quan was standing in front of a stone gambling stall with a group of rich second-generation youths, gambling on stones with a proud smile on his face.
The people around were amazed.
Those rich second-generation youths were Shen Quan’s hangers-on, either living in idleness or causing trouble with Shen Quan.
“Brother, you are too amazing! In the world of stone gambling, you are practically invincible!”
“That’s a given. Brother just spent half an hour and unearthed several top-quality jade pieces.”
“These jade pieces are worth at least several million!”
…
The rich second-generation youths began to flatter him.
Their words were music to Shen Quan’s ears, and a proud smile immediately spread across his face.
However, soon, Shen Quan’s brow furrowed.
“I lost a hospital to that brat named Jiang last night while drinking. If I ever meet that brat again, I’ll definitely get my revenge!”
Shen Quan’s face was filled with resentment.
He had originally intended to win Jiang Yi’s luxury car, but unexpectedly, he ended up losing his own hospital.
As Shen Quan spoke, he turned his head and saw Jiang Yi.
Shen Quan was stunned at first, then a hint of gloom flashed across his face.
“Mr. Jiang, what a coincidence, I didn’t expect to meet you here!”
Shen Quan walked towards Jiang Yi with a smile.
He looked as if he had met an old friend after many years.
“Indeed, it’s a coincidence!”
Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow.
“Mr. Jiang, I’ve already notified that hospital. You can go and handle the handover procedures at any time. Once the procedures are completed, that hospital will be yours!” Shen Quan said.
“Is that so?” Jiang Yi smiled.
“Do you think I would lie to you? I, Shen Quan, am a man of my word. You won against me yesterday, and I admit my loss.” Shen Quan said with a smile.
Jiang Yi sneered inwardly.
This Shen Quan fellow was a smiling tiger.
Even though he said this, he was certainly not happy.
“Mr. Jiang, have you ever tried stone gambling before?” Shen Quan asked Jiang Yi.
“Once or twice!”
Jiang Yi deliberately replied, “I don’t have much experience in stone gambling, it’s all guesswork. But I have good luck, and I made a small fortune.”
Upon hearing this, another flicker of gloom crossed Shen Quan’s face, but it quickly disappeared.
This time, for Shen Quan, it was a golden opportunity.
“Mr. Jiang, why don’t we try our luck?” Shen Quan said.
“I have other matters to attend to, perhaps another day!”
Jiang Yi deliberately refused.
“Why another day? Isn’t it better to play today?”
Shen Quan began to use a provocation tactic.
“Mr. Jiang, are you afraid of losing to me? You’re too timid. It’s just casual gambling, it won’t lead to bankruptcy.”
Jiang Yi remained silent.
“Mr. Jiang, we’re practically half-friends now. Are you really going to refuse me this small favor? Just play a bit, consider it giving me face.” Shen Quan said to Jiang Yi.
“I’m afraid you might lose all your fortune, wouldn’t that be bad?” Jiang Yi said with a slight smile.
“Mr. Jiang, if you have that kind of skill, I don’t mind losing to you. Such things inherently involve wins and losses,” Shen Quan continued.
“Alright, then let’s just play casually!”
Jiang Yi nodded and agreed.
Jiang Yi couldn’t help but sneer inwardly. He was already looking for a good way to deal with Shen Quan, and now this guy had come knocking on his door.
Since Shen Quan had voluntarily come to seek his demise, he would fulfill his wish.
Seeing Jiang Yi agree, a cold smile flashed across Shen Quan’s face.
He thought, the opportunity had finally come, and this time he had to get his revenge.
Moreover, he wanted to make Jiang Yi lose everything.
“Mr. Shen, how about I try first? To warm up?” Jiang Yi said.
“Sure!”
Shen Quan agreed. Su Dan Novel Network.
Then, Shen Quan said to the shopkeeper, “Take out all your stones and let Mr. Jiang warm up, let’s see how lucky Mr. Jiang is today. Don’t underestimate Mr. Jiang, he’s a big shot who drives a multi-million dollar luxury car.”
