Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Make a Bet_1

"Cheng Family Head, three years ago, at the Snake City underground summit, we had the chance to meet once,"

Nie Kuangtu began calmly, "I won’t beat around the bush with you. My son and adopted son have been captured by the Tang Family, and their fate is currently unknown. I need the help of you and the Tao Family."

"Nie! Kuang! Tu!"

On the other end of the phone, Cheng Debiao gasped. Three years ago, the first time he met Nie Kuangtu, he was deeply impressed by the chilling aura that surrounded him.

This castaway from the Jiangling Nie Family, actually seeking my and the Tao Family’s help?

After a long silence, Cheng Debiao spoke, "So it’s Mr. Nie. It’s not that I’m unwilling to help, but both my and the Tao Family’s influences are in Jiangnan City, and Jiangling City is the turf of the Four Great Families. Moreover, Mr. Nie, you’ve had conflicts with them in the past."

"If I rashly get involved, both our Cheng Family and the Tao Family could end up in a very disadvantageous position."

Nie Kuangtu seemed to have anticipated Cheng Debiao’s thoughts and said lightly, "Family Head Cheng, rest assured, I won’t let you take this risk for nothing."

"I have a tin mine in Meng City, and if you agree to do me this favor, I can hand it over to your Cheng Family. With that tin mine in Meng City, your export business won’t suffer!"

The Cheng Family was involved in many businesses, but the real money-maker was export trade, especially that of mineral resources.

Over the years, the mines developed by the Cheng Family were almost depleted, so the top priority was finding new mining resources.

Nie Kuangtu’s suggestion hit Cheng Debiao right where it mattered, as striking a snake at its weakest spot.

"Family Head Cheng, I heard that your son Cheng Wei was injured by someone a while ago?"

Knowing that Cheng Debiao was hesitating, Nie Kuangtu stoked the fire, "As far as I know, the person who injured your son is named Mo Han, and he has quite a good relationship with Tang Guowei."

"As long as you’re willing to help, I can kill him for you!"

Cheng Debiao’s eyes lit up, tempted. His son’s legs were shattered, and all the doctors had declared it impossible for him ever to stand again.

Mo Han had once saved Tang Guowei’s life, and killing him was not a simple matter.

But with the help of Grandmaster Realm’s Nie Kuangtu, killing Mo Han would be as easy as slaughtering a chicken.

He thought for a moment and then said, "What do you want me to do?"

Heh, just as I thought, you took the bait!

Nie Kuangtu’s lips curved slightly upwards as he said in a deep voice, "I need you to contact the Tang and Zhou Families tonight, and by tomorrow at Shili Slope, I will help Zhou Zhishan lift the Gu, but they must bring my son and Ah Long there!"

Cheng Debiao frowned slightly, "Is that it?"

Understanding Nie Kuangtu as he did, he knew it couldn’t be that simple.

"Of course not!" Nie Kuangtu chuckled, "I want you, Family Head Cheng, to go there for me tomorrow."

As for his whereabouts, Nie Kuangtu had no intention of revealing them to anyone.

"Fine!"

Having boarded the ship, Cheng Debiao naturally wasn’t going to drag his feet, "I’ll contact people from the Tao Family right away and have them arrange for someone to come over tonight."

"Pleasure doing business with you!"

"Pleasure doing business with you!"

...

At dusk, Mo Han rode his electric bike, accompanied by his wife and daughter, to the Sofitel Hotel.

Luo Ning initially thought Mo Han would take her to a hot pot restaurant or something similar; unexpectedly, they arrived at the highest-standard Sofitel Hotel in Jiangling City.

Luckily, she had been there once before, and after a brief shock, she quickly regained her composure.

"Ning’er, you and Chen Chen go to the lobby first; I’ll come over after I answer a call."

While parking, Liao Shishi suddenly called, saying that there were a few things that needed discussion.

Not wanting to spoil the surprise early, Mo Han asked his wife and child to wait in the lobby for a bit.

Upon entering the lobby, Luo Ning saw the apology letter at the door.

"Talk about being a big spender, booking the Dazzling Stars just for one person’s birthday celebration,"

Luo Ning said enviously, muttering to herself, "Mo Han certainly doesn’t know about this; otherwise, why would he bring me to Sofitel..."

"Mommy, I need to go to the bathroom," Mo Xiaochen interrupted at that moment.

Luo Ning smiled and nodded, "Okay, Mommy will take you."

"Chen Chen is a big boy now; I don’t need Mommy’s help," Mo Xiaochen pouted, pushing his mother away as he headed towards the restroom in the hall.

"Wow, look at that beauty! She’s got the looks and the figure,"

"I bet she’d cost at least eight thousand for a go, maybe twenty thousand for the whole night," some men seated in the VIP area of the sofa section commented as they watched Luo Ning.

One of them, wearing earrings and looking to be about twenty-five or twenty-six and slightly chubby, laughed, "William, shall we place a bet to see who can pick her up first?"

Zhou William scoffed disdainfully, "Zhu Chongde, you think with that face of yours you can pick up such a beauty?"

Zhu Chongde wasn’t offended and just chuckled, "Five hundred thousand, to see who can pick her up first, how about it?"

"Hah, are you afraid?" Zhou William picked up a wine glass from the coffee table, took a sip, and arrogantly said, "I’ll let you go first!"

"Alright!"

Zhu Chongde stood up, straightened his clothes, and showed off his limited-edition Patek Philippe by flicking it a couple of times before walking toward Luo Ning with a smile.

"Hello, beautiful. I am Zhu Chongde, the PR Manager of Zhu Group—May I have the pleasure of knowing you?"

Luo Ning was startled by the sudden voice from behind. As she turned around, she hadn’t even spoken when she noticed the other party was already gawking slack-jawed, drooling—a perfect picture of a lech.

Beautiful!

Too beautiful!

As one of the heirs to the Zhu Family, one of the Four Great Families, Zhu Chongde had seen plenty of beauties, but he had never seen anyone as pure and enchanting as Luo Ning.

He felt his breathing become constrained, his whole body experiencing a tingling sensation, both numb and ticklish.

This woman, I must have her today, at any cost!
