Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 2114 - 2103: Target Located

This consequence, Tang Xiaoyue cannot afford, nor can Ning Fan."Even if I have to kneel and beg this time, I must ensure Ning Fan leaves Fusang safely."

Although she was unclear about Ning Fan's background and the reason for his fearlessness, Tang Xiaoyue could only try her utmost.

The venue for the competition was a private club provided by a member of the organizing committee.

After strict inspections, the Tang family's motorcade entered the club's premises.

The open-air parking lot was already a gathering place for countless luxury cars.

This competition involved a license.

Whoever obtained it could openly excavate the gold mountain in Fusang.

At this moment, Tang Tianxing was exchanging pleasantries with a group of people.

Looking at their cheerful demeanor, those unaware might think they were old friends who hadn't met in years.

Little did they know, all of them secretly wished for each other's families to die off soon.

If not for the strict inspections preventing cold and hot weapons from entering, these people probably wouldn't dare approach each other at all.

At this moment, Tang Xiaoyue took the opportunity to introduce, "Mr. Ning, these are the other seven families, each coming from..."

"No need to introduce. I don't want to know who they are."

What Tang Xiaoyue wanted to say was nothing more than how imposing the other party's power was and how deep their backing went.

However, she did not know that Ning Fan simply did not care about these things.

No matter who dares to extend claws towards Mary, the entire organization from top to bottom will surely face his bloody revenge.

"The Shadow Squad should have already arrived."

Ning Fan glanced obscurely at Zheng Tianhang, secretly mocking, "Let's see if this guy is smart."

If Zheng Tianhang ignorantly courted death, the next stop for the Shadow Squad would be Hong Kong Island.

The data on Zheng Tianhang's entire family had already been thoroughly memorized by the Shadow Squad.

Led by the club's staff, Ning Fan arrived at a grand hall like a palace.

Seeing Vivian drooling, Ning Fan's old face turned red with embarrassment.

He was very sure that if he wasn't here, Vivian would unhesitatingly kill everyone present and take over the place.

There was no way around it; the entire hall was adorned with gold and jade stones.

The interior decorations were all gold; the displayed vases, porcelain, paintings, and calligraphy were all genuine antiques.

What was most surprising was that even the floor was covered with gold bricks.

Obviously a very tacky venue, yet under the soft lighting, it projected a beautiful dream-like scene.

"Show-off like this, aren't you afraid it will lead to disaster."

Ning Fan glanced at Vivian; if the club owner had any part in Mary's affair, he would let this greedy dragon have its way, ensuring the place was cleaned out entirely.

The competition began; eight contestants, including Ning Fan, headed to the center of the hall where eight gambling tables were set up.

On the huge LCD screen in the hall, several sets of data were rapidly flowing.

The event was Texas Hold'em, and opponents were randomly selected by the computer.

Soon, Ning Fan was matched with an opponent from…

Who cares where he came from, his surname, his name.

Ning Fan casually sat in the chair, his eyes scanning the hall.

If nothing unexpected happened, the cultivator who captured Mary would definitely appear at the event.

Soon after, Ning Fan had his discovery, his gaze settled on a gaunt man, with a turban wrapped around his head, wearing a suit, looking out of place.

Actually, Ning Fan was not quite sure of the man's age; his appearance looked middle-aged, but the aura he emitted was like that of an elderly person.

The man was extremely vigilant; Ning Fan's gaze lingered for only two or three seconds before he followed the gaze back.

But how could Ning Fan let himself be discovered, he continued to lower his head clipping his nails.

Ning Fan's disregard for the competition quickly drew the attention of those present.

However, the competition rules did not include this: contestants were prohibited from clipping nails.

Because of this, the judges at the bottom of the screen could only pinch their noses, pretend not to see, and continue reading the competition rules and disciplines.

"Sister, do you think he can manage?"

Hearing his granddaughter's question, Tang Tianxing instinctively perked up his ears,

He had never personally witnessed Ning Fan's gambling techniques, how could he truly be at ease?

But the arrow was already on the string, and he had no choice but to release it.

The competition had already been delayed for several days; even if Ning Fan did not appear, the latest it would start tomorrow.

But the expert hired by the Tang family would only arrive the day after tomorrow.

By the time people arrived, the opportunity would have cooled down.

This was not some entertainment variety competition with a nonsensical revival mechanism; the consequence of failure was singular.

This was also the reason for Tang Tianxing's dislike for Ning Fan, believing this young man to be too arrogant.

Otherwise, with his Jianghu prestige, he would not so hastily resort to discarding him after use.

Tang Tianxing had already subtly informed Zheng Tianhang that once the Tang family expert arrived, he would no longer interfere in his personal grievances with Ning Fan.

"Xiaodie, do you have faith in Mary?"

"Of course. Sister Mary is the Queen of Texas Hold'em."

From the preliminaries to the quarter-finals, there was a total of five matches.

In three of them, Mary single-handedly turned the tides through Texas Hold'em and won the matches, which amazed everyone, earning her the nickname Queen of Texas Hold'em.

"Then it's settled. Don't forget, Mary was recommended to us by Mr. Ning."

Among everyone present, only Tang Xiaoyue had the most trust in Ning Fan, believing he would overwhelm his opponents with thunderous might.

Hearing these words, Tang Tianxing nodded silently, recognizing his eldest granddaughter's judgment.

If Tang Xiaoyue learned to discern, he might even abdicate on the spot and let his granddaughter take charge.

Among the two generations of the Tang family, the only one who truly met his Dharma Eye was Tang Xiaoyue.

Expecting to see Ning Fan dominate a game with absolute kill, yet the scene was somewhat unexpected.

This competition had a maximum duration of two hours, each participant had a hundred million US Dollar chips.

Competition had proceeded into ninety minutes.

A semi-finalist emerged; as for the other two tables, they were also nearing a conclusion.

Once the competition time ended, the contestant with the most chips would automatically win.

Since the other two had already lost most of their chips, as long as their opponents continued a leisurely defense, the results would be largely predictable.

But only Ning Fan's table remained uneventful.

In their face-off, he placed the minimum ante each time.

Neither winning nor losing, frustrating his opponent to madness yet helplessly.

One competition rule was: no swearing allowed.

"Sister, could he be thinking about passive competition."

Hearing this, a trace of worry surfaced on Tang Tianxing's face.

Passive competition was a tactic, the competition did not prohibit it.

The key point was, Ning Fan's chips were thirty thousand less than the opponent's.

Compared to the hundred million amount, it was practically negligible loss.
