Chapter 7 [Battle of Lovers] (Part 1)
Chapter 7 of the Tenth Dynasty [Battle of Lovers] (I)
The old European man who had been by Fanny suddenly spoke, speaking fluently in English: "Hello everyone, my name is Tom, and I am Mr. He Tiansheng's lawyer and executor!"
As soon as he said this, the entire venue was in an uproar. Sui didn't expect that things would evolve to this point. Fanny's sudden appearance was already amazing. Now another will executor appeared. Could it be that He Tiansheng really made the so-called will?
Tom took out a document from his suitcase: "Mr. He Tiansheng made this will five years ago and it has been stored in Swiss banks. When he passed away, I was traveling in Africa and could not arrive in front of him as soon as possible. When I arrived, Miss Fanny was not sure whereabouts, so this matter has been delayed to the present."
Tom began to read this eye-catching will: "Mr. He made this will when he was awake. This document is accompanied by a test report of his physical and mental condition at that time by the Swiss National Hospital." Tom read clearly: "After my death, all the properties and assets of He's family were inherited by my only granddaughter He Fannie, and the covenant was: He Tiansheng."
No one present expected that the will was so concise and to the point. Only Fanny was mentioned in the will, which means that He Zhuoyi and He Qicheng had no control over their property. The transfer of assets they staged was just a farce.
"Impossible!" He Zhuoyi shouted frantically. She rushed forward and snatched the will from Tom's hand. When she saw everything written on it, she couldn't help but shed tears.
"Why do you do this to me!" She tore the will apart with force: "You are all lying."
Tom did not stop her actions, and what He Zhuoyi tore was just a copy.
"If you don't believe it, please consult your lawyer. I'm happy to provide you with all the factual evidence." Tom said with a smile.
He Zhuoyi looked at her representative lawyer. The lawyer lowered his head dejectedly, undoubtedly admitting that the situation was hopeless. He Zhuoyi sat in the seat sadly and covered her eyes with both hands.
Tom said: "Actually, I found Fanny three months ago. According to Fanny's words, she didn't want to make this will public. But you siblings did it too much. Not only did you want to dominate Fanny's legacy, but you also came up with such an idea to squander the family business..."
Fanny stopped Tom and continued to speak, and she whispered: "I think everyone has already understood everything that lawyer Tom said. As the only heir to the Ho family, I officially announced that all the Ho family's industries will not be transferred."
The venue suddenly became silent, and Mieko Fujita looked very disappointed, but Xiao Yu's lips showed a knowing smile.
Fanny said: "I will be responsible for all the fees for all the VIPs attending the conference to express my apology to everyone." She spoke generously and appropriately, and even if there was anger in her heart, there was no reason to say anything else.
Someone has begun to leave the market first, and Xiao Yu called Huo Yuan: "Let him go!"
Although Fanny said she had to bear the expenses of the attendees, as the attendees, few people would really care about these things. Perhaps because she had not achieved her goal, Mieko didn't even go to congratulate Fanny. When she was about to leave, she met Xiao Yu in person.
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?"
Mikeko's eyes stared at Xiao Yu deeply. Since Toshichi and Xiao Yu met in Korea, she had already known the news about Xiao Yu's peace. From that moment on, she knew that there would be a day when she and Xiao Yu met, and now this day has really come.
Mikeko couldn't find any tenderness of the past in her eyes, and she whispered: "I found that only when we stand on the opposite side can we see each other more clearly..." She walked towards the exit without looking back.
Xiao Yu slowly walked towards her opposite direction, and he suddenly realized that the past between them could never be reproduced again.
Fanny stood there quietly, mechanically accepting other people's blessings, but her eyes stuck to Xiao Yu's body. Xiao Yu's face still had an unspeakable hateful and cute smile. This was the first time Fanny felt so warm and kind in her heart since her grandfather died.
Xiao Yu reached out and said, "Congratulations."
Fanny's little hand firmly grasped Xiao Yu's warm big hand. She said in a crying voice: "I always... thought you were dead..." Xiao Yu knew her terrible personality, so she would not care about the occasion and the environment at all.
"We'll talk about some things later, okay?" Xiao Yu quietly reminded her not to expose herself in public.
"Hug me!" Fanny took the opportunity to threaten Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu shook his head helplessly. Before he could react, Fanny had already plunged into his arms. She sobbed and whispered in Xiao Yu's ear: "Xiao Yu... I miss you..."
Everyone present focused their eyes on them. Xiao Yu smiled awkwardly. It was natural that he could not push this crazy girl away in front of so many people. He thought she would be more mature after so many things, but he didn't expect that she would still look like this.
Xiao Yu whispered: "Let me go, otherwise the front page titles of major newspapers in Hong Kong and Macao tomorrow must be that the He Heirs and the Triads will open up a new era of gangsters."
Fanny bit her lips and smiled, then she let go of Xiao Yu to accept the congratulations from others.
When Xiao Yu saw Zhao Jinliang’s smile on his face, he couldn’t help but say, “Why are you laughing at?”
"Mr. Jin is indeed awesome. He doesn't need a single soldier or a soldier. The barbarians are destroyed in ashes while chatting and laughing."
Xiao Yu shook his head helplessly: "I'm not serious!"
When Xiao Yu and his party returned to the "Singdao Hotel", Huo Yuan, Hu Zhongwu and others were waiting for him there. Everyone had smiles on their faces. It seemed that they had known what was happening in the venue.
Xiao Yu threw his coat on the sofa casually, then lit a cigarette: "Everyone is sneaky, not serious."
Huo Yuan grinned and said, "We are happy for the organization. How much money will we save now!"
Hu Zhongwu and Lin Junfan nodded in agreement.
Xiao Yu said: "Although we did not achieve the expected goal during this trip to Macau, the result was not too bad. At least the casino did not fall into the hands of Yamaguchi Group."
Hu Zhongwu asked: "When will we return to Hong Kong?"
"You and Huo Yuan will go back tonight. The goods from Jin Xuri will arrive in Hong Kong in the next two days. You can check the progress of the preparation."
Zhao Jinliang said: "I also want to go back together. The day for opening Hongtang is coming soon. I want to discuss the specific matter with Lao Qian and the others."
Xiao Yu nodded: "Just leave Xingzai and Junfan here. Once Wang Jue dies, the Macau police will definitely strengthen their vigilance. It is not good for too many people to stay. I will go back immediately after I handle the Macau affairs."
At this time, the service phone in the room rang, and the service desk notified: "Mr. Jin, there is a Miss Mieko waiting for you in the cafe downstairs!" Xiao Yu was slightly stunned. He never thought that Mieko would come to him on his own initiative.
Hu Zhongwu reminded him: "Mihuizi's search for you must be related to the casino."
"Don't worry! I will handle this matter well." Xiao Yu knew what he was worried about.
Mieko sat quietly in the cafe. She was wearing a red kimono, and her white and delicate skin shone softly under the dim light. Her eyes were cast across the window and looking at the sea in the distance. I wonder if she was recalling the past time between her and Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu came to Mieko: "Can I sit down?"
Mieko woke up from her thoughts and smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, I'm thinking about something else..."
Xiao Yu smiled and sat down opposite her: "I thought you didn't plan to see me again."
Mieko asked back, “Do I need to escape?”
Xiao Yu said in a word: "Are you referring to me or the casino thing?"
Mieko blinked her clear eyes, but she did not answer Xiao Yu's question: "Is there any difference?"
The waiter brought Xiao Yu a cup of coffee, and Mieko carefully added a candy cube to Xiao Yu.
"You are still so good at taking care of people." Xiao Yu felt a warmth in his heart.
"It seems that there is no shortage of people around you!" Mieko said in a pun.
Xiao Yu took a sip of coffee: "If I understand correctly, you seem to be jealous?"
Mikeko's face flushed, making her look particularly charming.
"You came to me today to have a cup of coffee, right?" Xiao Yu stared into Mikeko's eyes.
Mieko nodded: "To be honest, before coming to Macau this time, an agreement had been reached between the Yamaguchi Group and the He brothers. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of He Fanni, the control of the casino would have fallen into our hands."
Xiao Yu frowned: "Did you choose the wrong partner when you talk to me about this? The triad did not get any benefits either."
"Finny has no ability to manage the family career left by He Tiansheng. Out of her trust in you, she will definitely seek your help in the end. In other words, your influence on her is irreplaceable to anyone."
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Didn't you want me to convince Fanny to transfer the casino's operating rights to Yamaguchi Group?"
"Looking at the whole of Asia, the only one who has the ability to take over the He family's industry is our Yamaguchi Group. Besides, she handed over the management rights to us, which will do her no harm. Although the casino has huge profits, the risks are equally great. She is just a girl who is not well-informed in the world. Why bother to struggle in this quagmire?"
