Chapter 491 - 491 Inquire
491 Inquire
Luo Fei reveled in the envious gazes of the people around him. This greatly satisfied his vanity.
Luo Fei took out a tray from beneath his seat and stacked the chips on it. Then, he walked to the front desk and exchanged the chips for cash.
A minute later, Luo Fei looked at the bank transfer record of 380,000 yuan on his phone and felt elated.
The only regret was that he couldn’t gather the 400,000 yuan.
What Luo Fei neglected was the fact that, although he had won this time, he had lost hundreds of thousands of yuan since he started gambling… His house was still in someone else’s hands.
Chu Ning stood at the entrance of the Twilight Bar with a calm expression, not looking the least bit impatient.
Although she had only seen Luo Fei once, she knew that Luo Fei had something to do with Chu Huan’s disappearance.
She was not surprised by what a gambler could do. This thing was second only to drugs in terms of the harm it caused.
“What’s your name, beautiful? I’ll take you shopping. I have plenty of money!” As soon as Luo Fei walked out of the Twilight Bar, he saw Chu Ning waiting for him. As for Bai Hong, who was beside Chu Ning, he was selectively ignored.
“My name is Chu Ning. There’s no need for shopping. Let’s go somewhere quieter to talk.” Chu Ning smiled. This Luo Fei was really interesting.
Pretending to be rich in front of her? Chu Ning really didn’t want to hurt him. It was meaningless.
A gambler like him might have hundreds of thousands or even millions on him today, but he would lose everything the next day.
“Chu Ning? What a coincidence. I have a roommate with the surname Chu.” Luo Fei thought of Chu Huan, although he did not know how he was at the moment.
“Chu Huan, right?” Chu Ning asked.
“Yes, it’s him. Do you know him?” Luo Fei immediately became vigilant when he heard Chu Ning’s question.
“He is my brother.” Chu Ning nodded.
“But we’ve lost contact now. According to my investigation, he was with you before he disappeared.” Chu Ning looked at Luo Fei’s slightly greasy face and said evenly.
“How did you know?” Luo Fei looked at Chu Ning in disbelief.
“How is this possible?” Luo Fei’s heart was already in turmoil.
He subconsciously gulped.
Chu Ning sounded as if she had been at the scene the previous night.
“As expected.” Chu Ning looked at Luo Fei’s attitude and knew that she had guessed correctly.
She had not been sure at first and was making guesses, but after seeing Luo Fei’s appearance, she was certain of this fact.
No matter how stupid Chu Huan was, he was not a fool. It was impossible for him to be taken away by Zhou Hao without taking any precautions. He did not even have time to call the police. Someone must have acted in concert with him.
And this Luo Fei was obviously someone who had coordinated with Zhou Hao.
“It doesn’t matter how I know. Can you tell me how my brother lost contact?” Chu Ning said calmly.
At this moment, Luo Fei also completely realized the true purpose of Chu Ning looking for him.
“Sigh.” Luo Fei’s expression immediately changed to one of sorrow. He touched his cheek helplessly.
“Let’s talk somewhere else. This is not a place to chat,” Chu Ning said lightly.
A moment later.
The three of them appeared in a private room in a teahouse.
“… In that situation, I wanted to call the police, but I couldn’t bear the consequences of doing so. That Zhou Hao is a lunatic. He said, he said…” When Luo Fei said this, he suddenly looked troubled. From his expression, he seemed to be fearful of something.
After a few minutes of narration, Luo Fei had already briefly explained the cause and effect of the matter to Chu Ning.
However, the process had been slightly tampered with.
He was selling yellow peaches together with Chu Huan, but Chu Huan’s disappearance was not like what he said.
“What did he say?” Chu Ning asked softly.
“He said that if I dared to call the police, he would kill my entire family!” Luo Fei said in horror.
“Yes, I got it.” Chu Ning nodded.
This was indeed very consistent with Zhou Hao’s style of doing things.
Most importantly, Luo Fei was probably not lying.
After all, she knew about Chu Huan and Ye Ting’s chat history.
Chu Huan had sufficient motivation to make money, and what Luo Fei said was reasonable. The profits of wholesale fruits were indeed high, but the risks were also high.
Considering Chu Huan’s brainless indulgence towards Ye Ting, it was normal for him to do something stupid.
According to Luo Fei’s description, when they had loaded up a whole truck of yellow peaches and passed by a service area, Luo Fei alighted to use the washroom while Chu Huan slept in the vehicle.
After Luo Fei returned from the washroom, the truck had disappeared from the service area.
