When Xu Cheng came back, the casino directly asked the hosts to come over and help them count the chips. Even the higher-ups personally came over to help. When he saw Xu Cheng walk in, Xu Cheng had already taken off his mask, and his body subconsciously shivered. The scene of Xu Cheng throwing the ninja assassin into the wall like he was throwing out garbage, and the scene of him blowing up Kitano's head with his back facing Xu Cheng immediately popped up in his mind, making him subconsciously reveal a flattering smile towards Xu Cheng.
"Brother-in-law, where did you go?" Lin Lei asked.
"I went to the washroom. Is it done?" Xu Cheng asked.
Lin Lei nodded, his face filled with excitement. "3.8 billion!"
Xu Cheng smiled and said, "You have to pay taxes."
With that, he turned to the casino executive and said, "You can deduct the tax and then transfer the money to the account this gentleman mentioned."
The executive nodded. "Right away."
Lin Lei clenched his fists. "There's hope for the corporation now."
England.
Lin Chuxue stood in front of the mirror in a blue strapless dress. Her blue eyes looked at her dress and her beautiful reflection in the mirror, but she couldn't feel happy at all.
One of the aunties in the family helped her tidy up her dress and praised, "You're just like the princess in the Disney comics. You should be loved by everyone. Maybe this is your destiny. Marrying into the royal family is the best ending for you. It's okay, Nicole. Who hasn't been rebellious? The Third Prince will forgive you for your past willfulness. Now, you just have to return to being the dignified and elegant Rose of England. "
Lin Chuxue bitterly smiled at the mirror. "Auntie, do you know why I'm willing to marry Xu Cheng and go to Huaxia?"
The auntie didn't speak. To be exact, she didn't want to listen to her original words. Now the whole family was counting on her to save the group. She just hoped that nothing would go wrong.
But Lin Chuxue still said to herself, "Because I knew I would become the sacrifice of a political marriage, so I chose to go with Xu Cheng. Because here, no matter if it's the love and the imperial power, it's not as precious as' freedom '. That kind of person isn't me."
The auntie frowned. "What can that poor kid, Xu Cheng, give you? If your beauty was born in the last century, it would definitely be the fuse that ignited a war between men. Can Xu Cheng protect you? Don't even dream about it, Nicole, you will only harm him. We couldn't convince your parents to marry Xu Cheng back then, but now, if the corporation collapses, then our small family might go back to square one. At this time, it's not up to your parents, and it's not up to you. "
Lin Chuxue was a little angry. "I really hope that one day, Xu Cheng can slap you guys in the face!"
The auntie scoffed. "It would have been fine if you didn't mention this guy. Now that you mention it, I haven't even given him a good scolding yet. He was fostered here since he was young, eating and using the Lin family's food. When he grew up, he left as he pleased. He even abducted the Lin family's most precious woman. If he isn't an ingrate, then what is he? Slap our faces? I really hope that there will be such a day. Nicole, the so-called liking you have for him is just because you relied on him when you were young. This isn't love, understand? If he was grateful to the Lin family, he wouldn't have married you and put the Lin family in a difficult situation. "
"Isn't the reason why Xu Cheng is looked down upon by the nobles because of you, a big mouth, showing off everywhere?" At this moment, Mother Lin, who was standing at the door, scolded with a serious expression, "Nicole is my daughter, why don't you marry your daughter into the royal family?"
Lin Chuxue's auntie retorted, "If the Third Prince liked my daughter, I would have sent her over a long time ago. I don't need you guys to go through all this trouble. Nicole is also a member of the family. Sis, if it wasn't for the family helping your husband's corporation, would he be able to rise to the top? Don't try to deny it. "
Mother Lin was furious, and she sneered, "You have the nerve to say that? Back then, I got to know Brother Ren because he had no background, and he was an Asian, so my family was against him. And you, who was the one who wanted to drug me and send me to a rich and powerful person's room? If it wasn't for Brother Ren's skills, no one would have been able to save me. If it wasn't for me, with Brother Ren's temper, he would have already crippled you! Now you are still trying to instigate my daughter, you really are something! All these years, Brother Ren made the corporation bigger and stronger, and he was even conferred a noble title by the queen, but you guys kept sticking to him. Now that the corporation is about to fall, you guys don't even need to do anything, and now you guys want to use my daughter to save you? What a joke, get the hell out of here! "
Mother Lin's younger sister's face immediately became unnatural. "Anyway, this is Dad's idea, it's not up to you guys."
Then, she swung her sleeves and left.
The mother and daughter exchanged glances with each other, their faces full of worry.
"Child, think about it carefully. If you don't want to go, then you don't have to go to this banquet," Mother Lin said to Lin Chuxue.
Lin Chuxue bitterly smiled. "Everyone knows I'm back in England. If I don't show up, the queen will blame the family. There's no need to anger the royal family right now."
"Okay, Mom knows you are sensible and always look at the big picture. Your dad is saying that if you don't want to go, he can give up on the corporation. Worst comes to worst, our family will emigrate."
Lin Chuxue bitterly smiled. "What's the use? Even if I go to another country, I will still attract trouble without anyone to rely on. Forget it. "
Mother Lin asked, "Is Little Cheng not back yet? The banquet is about to start, and that brat is gone. "
Lin Chuxue: "He probably went with his brother-in-law."
Speaking up to this point, Lin Chuxue smiled. "That's good too. If he doesn't show up, my heart will always be filled with hope. I know he's on the other side, trying his best to think of a way. I don't know why, but I always feel like I have to trust him. I believe that if he has Uncle Xu's temper, he will definitely prove it to the family."
Mother Lin: "Your dad said the same."
Lin Chuxue immediately turned around and asked her mother with a smile, "Mom, what do you think of my dress today?"
"Beautiful." Mother Lin smiled and praised, "Your dad said that in Huaxia's language, you are a beauty that can cause the downfall of a city. When you appear, your beauty will definitely overwhelm the audience and make those princesses feel inferior."
Lin Chuxue smiled and said, "I'm not wearing it for those people to see. To be honest, I've never worn a formal dress for Xu Cheng to see before. I don't know if he paid attention to me before, but I know he will come. I'm wearing my most beautiful dress for him to see. Tonight, no matter who invites me, I won't dance. I will wait for him!"
In the sky, Lin Lei looked at the time and asked the pilot, "Can you fly a bit faster?"
The pilot bitterly smiled. "Young Master, a plane isn't a car, and it can speed up. We have to follow the plan."
Seeing that they had already landed in London's airspace, the plane still had to make a detour to apply for a landing spot.
Lin Lei asked the dumbfounded Xu Cheng, "Brother-in-law, aren't you in a hurry?"
Xu Cheng directly picked up the parachute, put it on, and jumped down without saying anything.
