Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 1473: Chapter 1457: Trouble in the He Family

Following Huo Sining back to Caesar’s Palace, Su Qingqing held back the whole way, unable to voice the doubts in her mind. Once they arrived at the hotel, she couldn’t hold back any longer.

”Ningning, what’s going on with those bricks just now? You spent a hundred thousand US dollars to buy a pile of worthless stones?”

Su Qingqing wore a frustrated expression.

Huo Sining raised her head, looking at Su Qingqing with a half-smile: ”What else? That’s how stone gambling is, nine out of ten bets are losses, isn’t that quite normal?”

”But...” Su Qingqing looked at Huo Sining with confusion, wanting to say that while losing nine out of ten bets is common for others, you’re different. You are the Jade Queen, Huo Sining, how could you gamble and lose?

Looking at Su Qingqing, Huo Sining’s eyes carried a hint of a smile, and she suddenly and nonchalantly turned around, opening her backpack and taking out a stone, saying with a smile: ”Alright, I better take out the stuff, otherwise you probably won’t sleep tonight.”

Seeing the stone Huo Sining took out, the group instantly widened their eyes with astonishment.

”This is the true material that can yield Jadeite; that Boss Bai is obviously a swindler, and I was afraid he’d change his mind at the last minute. To prevent any accidents, I hid this raw stone beforehand.” Huo Sining explained.

Wu Ya was a bit surprised: ”So, this raw material is from that pile of bricks too? But why didn’t we see you put the raw material into your backpack, there were so many people in the yard then, how did you do it, Sister Ning Ning?”

There was no need for Huo Sining to explain, as Bai Yishan beside her already had an expression of understanding:

”This would be difficult for someone else, but don’t forget, Ning Ning is a Magician. Creating magic is possible, so hiding a piece of raw material is not difficult. Besides, the scene was so chaotic then, and she is skilled and quick, we didn’t notice, so it couldn’t be more normal.”

It was Su Qingqing who was a bit sulky: ”I said you were playing the fool but acting cunning, otherwise how could you spend a hundred thousand on so many worthless stones? You let us waste effort in front of the stone cutting machine, and you didn’t give us a hint beforehand. At least prepare us mentally.”

Huo Sining rolled her eyes at Su Qingqing: ”Tell you? You’re not someone who can keep calm, I didn’t tell you because I was afraid you’d reveal my secret. If that old man had sensed something was amiss, how would I have managed to take the stone? I didn’t confide in you because I didn’t trust you. Otherwise, could you perform so convincingly?”

Su Qingqing suddenly fell silent, unable to say a word.

While they were bickering, Huo Sining’s phone suddenly rang. When she saw the caller, she froze, hesitated for a second, and then answered.

Once the call was connected, Ouyang Jun’s furious voice rang from the other end: ”Sister-in-law, are you still in Los Angeles?”

Huo Sining hadn’t told Ouyang Jun she was in Gambling City because she feared Ouyang Jun would reveal this news to Song Chaoying, given they were in a relationship now, and Ouyang Jun siding with Song Chaoying was understandable.

However, Huo Sining heard the urgency and panic in Ouyang Jun’s voice and couldn’t help asking: ”Did something happen?”

Ouyang Jun’s voice quivered: ”Turn on the TV and switch to the local station, you’ll know from the news, something happened to the Song Family!”

”Something happened to the Song Family? What happened?!”

Upon hearing this, Huo Sining was shocked, jumped up from the sofa, and hurriedly turned on the TV.

”According to the police, this explosion was manipulated by human means. A remote controlling device was found at the explosion site, indicating the bomb was pre-installed underneath the victim’s car.”

”Currently, Casino City Hospital has completely sealed off information. Whether the Gambling King was injured by the bomb, we do not know. But from the scene, the consequences of this malicious explosion are very serious.”

”The Gambling King’s outing this time aimed to participate in the WGC competition. Not having competed for many years, the Gambling King’s return aimed to seize the title of the International Gambling Competition Champion.”

”Whether this malicious explosion incident is related to the Gambling King’s participation in the competition, the police are still investigating further. Our reporters will continue to follow up and report.”

Not only the local station, but many major Huaxia portals and Huaxia TV stations also reacted, interrupting the broadcasts with this breaking news, and several Ameri-Hua Broadcasting Stations also reported on this explosion event.

Feeling stunned after watching, the others in the room were also shocked.

Although Huo Sining had only met Song Gambling King once, she quite liked this old guy.

Though the Gambling King was aged and his health no longer as it once was, he actually returned personally for the Las Vegas competition, showing how much importance Old Song placed on this competition.

Thinking about how Song Xiaochen and siblings had been asking her to compete before, and now, at this critical moment, something happened to the Gambling King, Huo Sining couldn’t help but feel sympathy, hesitating about whether to call Song Xiaochen.

Just as she was hesitating, a call came in, and seeing the name ”Song Xiaochen” displayed, Huo Sining already guessed the purpose of this call.

But in such circumstances, to still fuss over these things would not be in Huo Sining’s true nature.

”Young Master Song, you don’t need to say more, I’ve heard about Mr. Song’s situation. I’m at Caesar’s Palace Hotel now, you and Miss Song come over immediately, my room is.”

Huo Sining had a somewhat solemn expression. News of the Gambling King’s withdrawal had surely spread, and if the Song Group couldn’t gain enough weight in this battle of titans, after the WGC competition was over, both Song Gambling King and Aocheng Casino’s international status would be greatly affected.

Huo Sining isn’t a saint, but she is unwilling to harm the interests of Huaxia people.

Even though she likes to keep a low profile, it doesn’t mean she is actually afraid, especially in such situations, the Huaxia people must demonstrate their magnanimity and thunderous means. Even if it means resorting to cheating devices, she will ensure those Americans bullying Huaxia know the Huaxia people aren’t easy to bully!

Huo Sining’s words left Song Xiaochen and Song Chaoying somewhat astonished. They both thought Huo Sining was still in Los Angeles, and none of them expected Huo Sining to already be in Las Vegas, and judging by her tone, she seemed prepared to agree to their request.

The previously gloomy faces of the Song siblings finally showed a hint of a smile, and they hurriedly grabbed the documents and rushed towards the room where Huo Sining was.

For them, every minute and second now is crucial.
