After He Hongyuan and Fan Zhihao left, they parted ways. Fan Zhihao felt that he had lost a lot of money today, and lost a lot of face and money.
"Dad, what should we do now? We failed, and uncle won't let us go easily, "He Yixi said to He Hongyuan helplessly.
He Hongyuan was displeased, but didn't say a word. He didn't know what to do either.
An idea dawned on He Yixi. "Dad, why don't we use He Siyang to threaten uncle?"
Hearing that, He Hongyuan was mad. "Do you think that I don't want to do that? But He Siyang ran away yesterday. I don't know where he is hiding. I can't find him. "
"What? He ran away? How, how could this be? "He Yixi's heart fell to the bottom when she heard this. She was a little dazed.
Now that He Siyang had run away, they had no bargaining chips left. How could they negotiate with the He family?
After what had happened this time, the He family wouldn't let them go, but they didn't do anything because they had He Siyang in their hands.
"Although he ran away, he's still on the island. We can't catch him, so we can't threaten He Hongjie. Now, we can only send people to find He Siyang as soon as possible," He Hongyuan said.
The island was so far away from the mainland. No matter how good a person was at swimming, they wouldn't be able to swim back. It would be impressive if they could swim one-fifth of the way back.
Therefore, even though He Siyang escaped from his men, he ran to the island.
However, even though the island wasn't large, it wasn't easy for a person to find him if he really wanted to hide there. He Hongyuan couldn't send people to find him, because he knew that the He family had sent people to keep an eye on him. Once he did something, the He family would keep an eye on him. If they found He Siyang, it would be even worse.
… ….
Zuo Jiangkui usually followed He Yishao to manage the casino, so he stayed behind when He Hongjie and the others left.
However, a short while later, He Yishao called Zuo Jiangkui to his office and told his bodyguards to stop him.
Zuo Jiangkui was shocked. Although he had already guessed why He Yishao suddenly gave him a hard time, he still pretended to be dumb and asked, "Yishao, what do you mean?"
Because Zuo Jiangkui was He Hongjie's eldest disciple and had been with him for more than a decade, He Hongjie had always treated him as his own son, so he had a close relationship with the He family's children. He only called them by their names and never called them young masters or young ladies.
"Zuo Jiangkui, the He Family treated you well, didn't they?" He Yishao narrowed his eyes and looked at Zuo Jiangkui coldly.
"Yes," Zuo Jiangkui replied. He didn't deny it.
He Yishao's face changed. He suddenly shouted angrily, "Since the He Family has treated you well, why did you betray them?"
He believed that the He family had never mistreated Zuo Jiangkui, and there was almost no obvious difference in the treatment of each of their disciples. Because the He family had encountered such a crisis, he had betrayed the He family.
As for the other disciples, they continued to support the He Clan, advancing and retreating with them.
Hearing that, Zuo Jiangkui panicked a little, but still refused to admit it. "Why did I betray the He family?"
He still hoped that He Yishao only suspected him, but didn't have solid evidence. Even if He Yishao suspected him, he couldn't do anything to him as long as he didn't have solid evidence.
"Ha, ha!" He Yishao knew what Zuo Jiangkui was thinking. He sneered, then took out a stack of photos from his drawer. He walked to Zuo Jiangkui and handed it to him. "Why don't you have a look?"
Zuo Jiangkui's pupils shrank when he saw the stack of photos, and he took them at once.
They were photos of him, Hong Yuefei and He Hongyuan when they had met.
"What do you think? Do you need to explain anything? "He Yishao asked. Actually, He Yishao already knew the answer from Zuo Jiangkui's expression.
However, Zuo Jiangkui didn't have the intention to admit it. He could deny it even if he was beaten to death.
Therefore, Zuo Jiangkui decided to be tough.
He argued, "Are you sure that I betrayed the He family just because of these photos? Yes, I've met them before, but that was because they came to me and wanted to bribe me to be their spy, but I rejected them all. "
"Since you refused, why didn't you tell us that they came to see you?" He Yishao asked. It wasn't clear whether he believed Gu Ning or not.
He didn't believe it, but he didn't believe it in his heart.
They had thought that it might be the same as what Zuo Jiangkui had just said, but if it was true, why didn't Zuo Jiangkui tell them?
If he didn't tell them, there must be something wrong.
"I, I was afraid that you would misunderstand." Zuo Jiangkui felt guilty and immediately explained, but obviously, he wasn't so confident.
"Ha! Aren't you afraid that we'll misunderstand you? "He Yishao sneered. It was obvious that he didn't believe Zuo Jiangkui's words.
"You won't believe me no matter what I say now, because I haven't done anything to hurt the He family," Zuo Jiangkui said.
Yes, although Zuo Jiangkui betrayed the He family, he didn't do anything to hurt the He family, but that was because he hadn't done it yet.
"Zuo Jiangkui, since you're working with He Hongyuan, you must know where Siyang is, right? As long as you can tell me where Siyang is and he's safe and sound after we find him, the He family will let it go for the sake of our friendship for so many years. As long as you leave the He family, you'll have nothing to do with us from now on, "He Yishao said.
Of course, he wouldn't let him go so easily, but he could still let him live.
"I don't know," Zuo Jiangkui said.
"Are you sure?" He Yishao asked. It was obvious that he didn't believe it. "Zuo Jiangkui, stop resisting. It's useless. The He family doesn't care whether you can admit it or not."
Zuo Jiangkui didn't say a word.
He was right! He clearly knew what the He family was capable of. It wasn't easy for him to escape if he didn't admit it.
After hesitating for a while, Zuo Jiangkui finally said, "I only know that He Siyang is still on the island, but I don't know where he is."
"He's still on the island?" He Yishao frowned with doubt, because they had already searched the island, but failed to find He Siyang.
Of course, they only searched the places where they could find it. They did not search every inch of it.
"Are you sure?" He Yishao fixed his eyes on Zuo Jiangkui. He didn't want to miss any reaction from Zuo Jiangkui.
