Chapter 107 Guess who I am!
The one who called him was Alan. They had a very good relationship and they kept in touch frequently after returning to China.

Allen's family runs a furniture factory and decoration engineering company, and they have cooperative relationships with several of the top real estate developers in the country.

Standing in the back was a tall, taciturn boy named Dashan.

Like Fu Rourou, he also studied at Huaguang Main School.

Of the two girls, the one with a baby face named Xiaoyu and Dashan are a couple, and the other girl with glasses and single eyelids is Alan's current girlfriend, named Li Yan.

Interestingly, both couples had broken up before returning home.

"Why are you four here?"

"I'm going to travel to Xi Village. It just so happens that I have to go out and have some fun, hehe."

"Why, Chen Xi, you haven't been in a relationship yet?"

"Yeah, I didn't have a relationship in high school, and I'm still alone in college."

Among the four people, except Dashan who was taciturn, the other three were very talkative and immediately started teasing him.

From what they said, it seemed that they didn't know that Saori and I were together. It seemed that Dongdong and the others didn't spread the news outside.

"Where are you going? Let me see."

"Oh, you're on the same flight with us. Are you going to Xicun to meet your sweetheart?"

Alan snatched his boarding pass and looked closely at the flight number.

"What a stupid lover! My dad is holding a meeting in Xi Village and he insisted on asking me to go."

Chen Xi curled his lips, looking unhappy, and hurried to the airport. He was full of anger.

"Oh, my dad is also holding a meeting in Xi Village."

Dashan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

"Oh? Then you're not going?"

"Maybe I'll go back, depending on my mood."

Dashan's family was well off, and he was considered one of the top three Chinese in the school. In his previous life, he went to the United States to settle down.

"Okay, let's go and have some McDonald's first~"

Alan saw that it was getting late, so he suggested eating something. The airplane food in Australia is terrible, and some people would rather go hungry.

McDonald's and KFC in Australia have very limited product varieties, not as rich as those in China. KFC in China even provides rice and fried dough sticks. Several people ordered five Mac Chicken meals to get by just fine.

"Why are you looking at us? Didn't you expect us to get together so quickly?"

While eating, Chen Xi looked at the four people from time to time. He had always been curious about how they got together and became a couple inexplicably.

"Ha, last time at Cashbox you left early and I drank too much, so Li Yan took care of me the whole night."

"No one asked you, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Li Yan pinched Allen and he cried out in pain.

Chen Xi knew that Allen was a henpecked guy. Nine out of ten of his friends were henpecked, but they were very stubborn and kept saying, "This is to love and respect my wife."

"Okay, let's not talk about us, Chen Xi. Look at Dashan and Xiaoyu. They have actually been together for a long time, but they just never made it public. They are really two sultry guys."

Alan turned the topic to the mountain beside him.

Dashan was a sullen guy all the time, so naturally he didn't waste any words with him. He just laughed dryly a few times.

"Chen Xi, last time Li Yuqing was drunk, she kept calling your name. We looked for you for a long time but couldn't find you. In the end, she was sent away. You really missed a great opportunity."

At this time, Xiaoyu suddenly remembered what happened last time in KTV.

"What's there to miss? I found a treasure."

Chen Xi was a little disdainful of Li Yuqing. He thought Saori was more fragrant, pretty, nice to him, and a wealthy woman. She had everything she wanted.

Only a fool would choose Li Yuqing!
"Did you find a treasure? I think you were drunk that day and passed out in the toilet."

"Li Yuqing is also at Didi University, you two can develop some relationship."

Alan and Xiaoyu spoke one by one.

"Come on, Li Yuqing is not good enough for Chen Xi."

Li Yan picked up a French fry and put it into her mouth.

There are usually a lot of small frictions between girls. Chen Xi had heard before that many girls don't like Li Yuqing, thinking that she has a bad character and likes to take advantage of others.

Since Li Yuqing's family is not well off and girls like to compete with each other, many people look down on her.

In addition, Li Yuqing also likes to brag in private, which leads to many conflicts between her and other girls.

Li Yan's words reminded Chen Xi that Xiao Ming had said the same thing to him before, thinking that Li Yuqing was not worthy of him.

However, he was deeply involved in the vortex of gambling at that time and did not pay attention to Xiao Ming's reminder.

Later, he lost his mind and fell into Li Yuqing's gentle arms, unable to extricate himself.

"I was shopping in the city the other day and saw Li Yuqing with a boy. They were chatting and laughing while buying a lot of things..."

Li Yan put her hands on her hips and became more and more excited as she spoke, beginning to describe in detail what happened that day.

"It seems to me that Li Yuqing is interested in Chen Xi, and why is she so close to other boys?"

Xiaoyu also spoke at this time.

The two women sang the same tune. Chen Xi was not a fool, so he could naturally see that they had conflicts with Li Yuqing and were playing a double act.

However, he was not interested in what they said because it was impossible for him and Li Yuqing to be together.

"Last time, Li Yuqing was talking about how much his father earns a year..."

"That's right, why do I feel like it doesn't sound real?"

Xiaoyu and Li Yan were still talking and had already started talking about Li Yuqing's family background.

Li Yuqing's father was a small lawyer. He opened a law firm in partnership with others. The business was very poor and they made very little money in a year. Chen Xi naturally understood this.

Once her father came to Australia and kept talking about how much he earned. The number was not much and was somewhat exaggerated.

But even if the number was exaggerated, in Chen Xi's opinion it was pitifully small, not even as much as his family's income in a few days. It's true that like father, like daughter.

Generally speaking, the more people lack something, the more they show off it.

That's why Li Yuqing has so many problems.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's get ready to board the plane."

Chen Xi glanced at the time and said.

Most of the domestic flights in Australia are from Jet (JetStar). The aircraft are small and run-down, and they often offer low-priced air tickets.

Every time he took the plane, it shook violently, and Chen Xi felt like he was about to be reborn again. "Hey, have you bought the World Cup tickets?"

Alan took the initiative to change seats with others so that he could chat with Chen Xi. After the plane stabilized, he began his chat mode.

"Yeah, I bought a little."

"I lost several thousand this time. I'm so angry. Luckily, Li Yan didn't know about it, otherwise she would have killed me."

"Oh? Which team did you buy?"

"I bet on scores, 1-0, 2-1, 2-0, everything. I calculated that I could win money as long as I got one right, but in the end it was 1-1. It was so fake."

When Chen Xi heard Allen's way of buying the ball, he was speechless. The odds for buying the score were not low, but the chance of guessing correctly was not high.

He also bought so many scores at once that he wouldn't make much money even if he won one of them.

If you invest several thousand yuan at one time, you will probably only earn less than one thousand yuan. This rate of return is really too low.

"Did you win the tie bet?"

"Well, I didn't make much money, just for fun."

Chen Xi nodded.

In his previous life, he and Allen often went to the casino, but Allen's self-control was much better than his, and he would stop after losing one or two thousand dollars at a time.

In contrast, once Chen Xi sat at the gambling table, he would spend money like water, and he would not listen even if someone advised him to leave.

"I went to Crown last time and played a few games. I won a thousand dollars. I heard that people who go there for the first time can win money."

“Well, there is indeed such a saying. It may be that novices do not understand the rules and do not have too much psychological pressure, so they are usually able to win money.”

Chen Xi nodded and explained.

"Hey, I went to the casino in Star City this time. I heard it's very small, not as big as the one in Crown, and there are not many stages."

Alan seemed confident in his luck because he won money last time.

Usually, people who have just started gambling tend to have this mentality.

"um, yes."

In his previous life, Chen Xi had traveled to casinos all over Australia.

Although the Star City in Xicun was not as big as Crown, a new one was later built.

However, Mocun has always maintained its dominant position.

"Would you like to play with me?"

"No, I still have to go to the exhibition."

Allen extended an invitation to Chen Xi, but the latter shook his head and refused directly.

The flight didn't take long and we soon arrived above the city.

Looking down from the plane, the night view of the city is like a shining gem.

The traffic on the road weaved through it like a stream, and the outlines of tall buildings appeared in the night.

Xi Village under the night sky exudes a unique charm that makes people intoxicated.

In terms of prosperity, Xicun is still better. It is said that for entertainment and life, choose Xicun, and for study and retirement, choose Mocun. There is some truth to this.

"Okay, I'll take a taxi and leave."

After getting off the plane, Chen Xi waved goodbye to them.

"Which hotel are you staying in?"

Alan seemed to have not seen him for a long time and wanted to continue chatting with him.

"Park Hyatt Sydney!" Chen Xi said after looking at the address on his phone.

"Oh, I'm staying in a hotel near you, call me if you want to go to Casino."

"Easy to say!"

Chen Xi got into a taxi, opened his backpack, took out a bottle of mineral water, took a sip, then took out his cell phone and glanced at the text messages on it.

Some of them were from his father, asking if he had arrived in Xicun; others were from his mother, telling him that his father would be in Tuao in the next few days.

Since the divorce, Chen Xi's mother has been busy managing several companies, mainly in the jewelry business.

His father continued to run businesses in areas such as machine tools and finance.

“I don’t know which brand is on display this time.”

Chen Xi's machine tool business covers multiple brands, and its domestic market share occupies more than half of the market.

However, due to the large number of brands, outsiders often mistakenly believe that these brands are run by different bosses.

Although Chen Xi was not interested in this aspect, these machines had no appeal to him since he was a child.

When he decided to return to China to take over the business, he lost the opportunity.

"Dip~dip~"

"I just got in the car."

"Someone will meet you at the door."

"Ah."

After a brief exchange with his father, Chen Xi hung up the phone.

The lobby of Park Hyatt Xicun is like a dazzling art palace, elegant and noble.

As you enter the hall, the marble floor is as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the splendor of the chandelier.

Both sides are filled with artworks from all over the world, adding a strong artistic atmosphere to the entire space.

Carefully selected lights shine on each piece of art, giving them a charming glow.

I heard that the price for a night here is quite high, but for him, it’s not his own money anyway, so he doesn’t care at all.

"Guess who I am!"

Standing in the middle of the hall, Chen Xi did not see anyone coming to pick him up.

Just as he was about to call his father to ask, a pair of white hands suddenly covered his eyes.

The other person was obviously not tall and had to stand on tiptoe to make this move.

Ok?
Who is it?

I don't think I've heard this sound before.
