?Chapter 587: Chapter 588: Heart-to-Heart (17)_1 Chapter 587: Chapter 588: Heart-to-Heart (17)_1 That man, from start to finish, he gambled not on card skills, but on psychological tactics!
He bet on the fact that he didn’t have his audacity, didn’t have the courage to put himself in a life-and-death situation!
…
Liang Chen casually guided Jing Haohao out of the casino and flagged down a taxi on the street.
Liang Chen, the gentleman, opened the car door for Jing Haohao. It was only then that she came to her senses, realizing she had walked away unscathed from Mr. Suzuki’s hands. The composure she had been maintaining shattered at that moment; her steps towards the taxi became weak, and she nearly tumbled onto the ground. Thankfully, Liang Chen was quick and managed to steady Jing Haohao.
Jing Haohao got into the taxi without uttering a single word the whole time.
Only when Liang Chen asked if she had booked a hotel did she give a slight nod.
Liang Chen asked for the name of the hotel again, only then did Jing Haohao speak, giving the driver the address.
Upon returning to the hotel, Liang Chen didn’t go upstairs. He asked Jing Haohao if there was anything left in her room, to which she shook her head. Liang Chen then went to the front desk and checked out for Jing Haohao.
Liang Chen didn’t know much about Mr. Suzuki, nor was he familiar with his character. Because the trip to Japan was unexpected and not much preparation was made, Liang Chen didn’t stay long in Japan. Right after checking out, he booked two plane tickets, preparing to return to Jiangshan City immediately.
…
When they arrived at the airport, it was already five in the morning. The flight was at seven o’clock. Aware that Jing Haohao hadn’t slept all night, Liang Chen found a restaurant after they passed through security.
Jing Haohao simply had a bite to eat, gradually coming to after the thrilling event. She lifted her head and saw the quiet face of Liang Chen. It was then that she remembered the question that had been nagging her. She looked him in the eye and asked, “How did you know I was in Japan?”
In fact, what Jing Haohao really wanted to ask was whether he had come to Japan because of her?
“I didn’t know you were in Japan.” Liang Chen truly had no idea. He only knew where Mr. Suzuki was, so he went straight there. He was surprised when he opened the door to find Jing Haohao pressed onto a couch by Mr. Suzuki. Rage covered his brain and he attacked without a second thought.
So, he didn’t know she was in Japan… A slight sense of loss filled Jing Haohao’s heart. She lowered her eyelashes to mask the light in her eyes. She couldn’t understand why, but she felt a lump in her throat, making her uncomfortable. She took a deep breath, trying hard to speak calmly, “You came… to see Mr. Suzuki. Was it for work?”
Liang Chen shook his head: “No.”
If not for work, and he didn’t know she was in Japan, then why did he look for Mr. Suzuki?
She remembered that when he was gambling with Mr. Suzuki, he mentioned the Haixin Company contract…
A daring thought sprang up in Jing Haohao’s mind, but she did not dare to confirm it. She lifted her eyelids, stared at Liang Chen, hesitated for two seconds before she asked, “How did you know about the Haixin Company contract?”
“I found out last night while playing cards with some friends,” Liang Chen replied.
He learned the news last night and came to Japan promptly. Could it be that he came to look for Mr. Suzuki because of her situation?
