Ling Xue suddenly found herself unable to refute her master’s words.
Yes, the master let Guan Feitian beco foes with Ye Fan and ngyao, even dispatched many strong figures, ignoring Ye Fan and ngyao. That is a life-and-death feud, and knowing it was too late, regretting now is pointless.
Why should Ye Fan and ngyao let the master off?
Thinking of Li Chenggui’s rejection, it also made sense.
"Master, is there really no way to salvage this?" Ling Xue drooped her face, suddenly realizing the seriousness of the situation, which was not as simple as it seed on the surface. Her optimism about Ye Fan and ngyao felt like a pavilion in the sky.
"There must be a way." The God of Gambling said, "Find a person of weight to plead on our behalf, visit Mr. Ye and President Chu. As long as we yield, I believe they won’t be rciless."
"Is Li Chenggui’s word credible?" Ling Xue asked, "The Zhao Family, do they really wield such power?"
"I don’t know either, Li Chenggui considers his reputation, he wouldn’t deceive ." The God of Gambling thought for a mont, and said, "We can only proceed according to the original plan and visit other families, leaving the Zhao Family for last."
The Ma Family, the God of Gambling and Ling Xue hit a wall again.
The Huang Family was the sa.
Sa with the Zheng Family’s attitude.
The Chen Family, don’t even ntion it.
Spending most of the day, Ling Xue accompanied the God of Gambling visiting the pilots of the five major families, Li Chenggui, Ma Qianqiu, Huang Jingwei, Zheng Zhonghai, and Chen Tiande, the result was surprisingly consistent; the five families couldn’t help.
Repeated rejections left the God of Gambling disheartened. The five families unanimously shared the view that they dared not ddle with the enmity between the God of Gambling and the Chu Group. Honestly, it was good enough they didn’t hit us while we were down, how could they risk helping the God of Gambling?
In the car, glancing at the Chen Family’s residence, the God of Gambling couldn’t suppress a look of powerlessness.
"The five families are the closest related to the Chu Group. If any of the patriarchs or a few would co forward to plead, things would be much easier. But unfortunately, none of them want to take this risk." The God of Gambling said helplessly, "Actually, the unified opinion of the five families not willing to help us stems from their dissatisfaction with my targeting Mr. Ye and President Chu—it’s only natural. Hence, it’s impossible to expect their help."
"Thinking this through, the five families not going out of their way to target us is already a huge rcy." Ling Xue said, "Although our business is in Macao, if the five families truly wanted to target us, they have the capability."
"Indeed." The God of Gambling sighed, "The five families naturally possess the ability to strike us down; wishful thinking for their assistance is impossible. I held on stubbornly; now, it seems like I took the wrong path. Being enemies with the Chu Group also ans enmity with the five families. Li Chenggui and the others not showing a cold shoulder is already comndable."
"Are we still visiting the Zhao Family?" Ling Xue asked, "Looking for soone weighty enough to speak on our behalf seems unlikely."
"Go, we must go, even if there’s a sliver of hope, we cannot give up." The God of Gambling was adamantly determined.
The God of Gambling t with Zhao Feipeng.
"The esteed visit of the God of Gambling graces my humble abode with brilliance." Zhao Feipeng said with a smile, genuinely happy. Typically, visits from soone as esteed as the God of Gambling are rare at the Zhao Family. His visit brought Zhao Feipeng great joy.
Zhao Feipeng warmly said, "Sit, please have a seat."
"Patriarch Zhao’s hospitality is overwhelming for ." The God of Gambling comnted politely.
After serving tea, the God of Gambling got straight to the point, "I’ve co to ask for your help, and hope Patriarch Zhao lends a hand, my lineage of the God of Gambling will be endlessly grateful."
"Feel free to speak of any matter, if my Zhao Family can muster the ability, we won’t decline." Zhao Feipeng stated solemnly.
"It’s like this, my lineage of the God of Gambling had so conflicts with Mr. Ye and President Chu, and we’d like to ask Patriarch Zhao to intervene and let us visit the two, to resolve any unpleasantness." The God of Gambling bowed deeply, sincerely seeking assistance.
"So that’s it, if it were another matter, my Zhao Family would be willing to assist, but in this case, we are powerless." Zhao Feipeng said with a hint of helplessness, "I’ve heard, the conflict between my lineage of the God of Gambling and the Chu Group isn’t rely a grievance, there have been significant clashes, such matters I dare not ddle in."
Past events, known throughout the business circle, Zhao Feipeng naturally was aware.
Despite the circumstances, Zhao Feipeng’s heart harbored a sense of pride, because of the relationship with the Chu Group. This is precisely why the God of Gambling visited; without such a connection, the God of Gambling would not have co seeking reconciliation.
"I implore Patriarch Zhao to lend a hand, surveying Dongfang City, if anyone can help, it has to be you, Patriarch Zhao; no one else carries your weight." The God of Gambling pleaded, "Regardless of success or failure, my lineage will forever honor Zhao Family’s great kindness and virtue."
"Don’t say that, you’re putting in an awkward position. It’s not that I don’t want to help you; I simply don’t have the proper ground to ask Mr. Ye and President Chu." Zhao Feipeng said bitterly, "Perhaps the God of Gambling doesn’t know our Zhao Family’s predicant. My son t an accident and is deceased, my granddaughter and daughter-in-law of Zhao Family are facing troubles one after another. Honestly, my Zhao Family lives each day with daunting crises, unsure of when we might encounter significant troubles. Mr. Ye and President Chu have shown great kindness to my Zhao Family, I truly am powerless to assist you."
Zhao Feipeng couldn’t justify helping the God of Gambling, especially while the Zhao Family was engulfed in crises, barely managing their own hurdles, there’s simply no heart to aid the God of Gambling.
"Patriarch Zhao, my apologies, I wasn’t aware of Zhao Family’s troubles, nor that you’ve lost your beloved son, I was inconsiderate. I’ll take my leave, please accept my condolences." The God of Gambling felt too embarrassed to stay, had to make his exit.
Another rejection faced by the God of Gambling severed all hopes.
Before coming to Dongfang City, his hope rested on the five families.
In the end, hope extended to the Zhao Family, yet overwhelmingly ended in despair.
The God of Gambling and Ling Xue got into the car, leaving.
"Master, listen to , let test the waters, and then we’ll make a plan when it’s sensible." As Ling Xue drove, she thought about resolving the dilemma.
"If it’s possible, trying to earn the favor of Mr. Ye’s family would be a good angle. But such a move could be too disrespectful, and we don’t know the exact location of Mr. Ye’s family, making it impractical." The God of Gambling snuffed out that idea quickly, then turning to Ling Xue, said, "I’m at my wit’s end, putting the hope entirely on you, if you can safeguard our lineage, I’d rather face death."
"Master, rest assured, I will resolve this; I won’t let you die." Ling Xue promised.
