My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1448: Your Second Brother Is Here

“Ah Fu, has the current batch of goods been sold?” The King of Gamblers asked in a low tone.

Thankfully, their surroundings were quiet, which allowed Lu Ning to hear the person on the other end of the line. Whoever it was, that person possessed a strong voice. “I’m afraid the transaction failed, King of Gamblers. It seems the goods delivered were not up to par.”

“What? That’s impossible!”

“How is it impossible? They’ve already rejected the goods. What’s more to be said? Honestly, what on earth are you doing? Haven’t I emphasized time and time again how important this transaction is to us? It’s key to our success in South Africa. As long as we succeed in opening a channel there, our net gains will increase exponentially. We’ll be rolling in dough!”

“Yes, yes. I understand, Ah Fu. I, too, do not wish for there to be any problems with the goods. How about this, why don’t you come back and inspect them for me?”

“Where are you?”

“I’m on a yacht in Macau. I’ll send someone to pick you up.”

“A yacht? Is it safe? The International Crime Squad is chasing me. They’ve cut off most of my lines of communication, and they’re closing in on my location. We’re all on the same boat – if anything happens to me, you’ll be next!”

“Ah Fu, I’m inviting you onboard this yacht for that reason. Don’t worry. This yacht is safe!”

The more she heard, the paler her skin became.

A batch of goods…

What kind of goods were they dealing in?

Who was this Ah Fu? What was his relationship with the King of Gamblers? Was Zhihan somehow involved?

Lu Ning had a very accurate intuition. This King of Gamblers was dealing in something illegal, and Yin Zhihan…

No, she had to find Zhihan and question his involvement.

Lu Ning turned around, wanting to leave.

But just as she did so, her heels scraped against the floor. The King of Gamblers heard it and immediately whirled around. “Who’s there?”

Lu Ning sucked in a breath of cold air. Oh no! She had been discovered.

The King of Gamblers ran towards her hiding spot demanding, “Who is it?”

Just then, a large palm covered her mouth, silencing her. The owner of the palm pulled her into the room next to the one she had been hiding in.

When the King of Gamblers arrived at the source of the offending sound, he found the place deserted save for a kitten mewling on the ground.

The King of Gamblers scanned the area cautiously. Finding no one in the immediate vicinity, he quickly hung up the phone and left.

…

In another room…

Lu Ning looked up to see who had saved her. It was Yin Zhihan.

“Yin Zhihan, I overheard Ann’s father, the King of Gamblers, on the phone just now. The other party was a man named Ah Fu. They mentioned a batch of goods. Do you know what they’re dealing in?” Lu Ning babbled, nervously grabbing hold of Yin Zhihan’s sleeve.

Yin Zhihan remained expressionless. Reaching out, he stroked Lu Ning’s hair and said gently, “These things have nothing to do with you. Don’t look into it any further.”

“Zhihan, do you know something? I feel that the identity of the King of Gamblers is not what he makes himself out to be. This ‘Ah Fu’ is heading over here from wherever he is right now. Don’t get caught up in their schemes!”

“Lu Ning, calm down. Forget everything you saw just now. It’s too dangerous for you to stay here. I’ll arrange for a boat to send you back to shore.”

Lu Ning shook her head. “No. I won’t go without you!”

“I’m sorry… I can’t go with you.”

“Yin Zhihan, you bullheaded, reckless fool!” Lu Ning angrily kicked the man.

Yin Zhihan wrapped Lu Ning in a firm hug, planting a kiss on the crown of her head. “There’s no time for fun and games. I’ll be fine. Go back and await my call.”

Lu Ning was so angry that she was practically frothing at her mouth. He was always like this. He always played the enigmatic man without bothering to consider her feeling. Zhihan’s mysterious ways merely added to her worries and fears, doing nothing to assuage them.

“Alright, let’s go. You should pick up your friend along the way. By the way,” Yin Zhihan interjected, having remembered something. “Your second brother should be here soon.”
