Chapter 441 Repaying the Gambling Debt

Huo Ziming rolled his eyes: "It's easy to say, the auction house wants to count the buyers, if you are too anxious, you won't be able to get a good price!"

Tian Baozhu sighed, took off her shoes and resigned herself to lying on her little bed.

"I'm really anxious to death!!"

As soon as the words fell, Huo Ziming's cell phone rang.

He glanced at the screen of his mobile phone, regained his energy immediately, got up and went to the window.

"Hey?"

"Mr. Huo Ziming, I am from the American branch of the auction house, and my name is Alice!"

A gentle female voice came through the phone with a blunt American accent.

"Hello! Alice!"

"Hi, it's like this. One of my buyers is very interested in the painting you plan to sell."

Huo Ziming was overjoyed, unexpectedly, in just a few days, overseas sellers also got the news: "That's really great, let's see you at the auction!"

Alice paused: "Sorry, you misunderstood! My buyer wants to chat with you in private."

"This..." He hesitated to meet in private like this.The price may not be more to his liking than at the auction.

"My members know that you are in urgent need of money, and the auction will take half a month at the earliest. How long are you and your girls planning to live in a hotel?"

When Huo Ziming heard this, he asked in panic, "Who are you? Are you spying on me?" He opened a gap in the curtain and looked outside.

It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and the small square opposite was full of grandpas and aunts dancing in the square. He looked around and found nothing unusual.

"Don't look! Our people are not there. He will send a car to pick you up at nine o'clock tomorrow morning!"

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone hastily.

Huo Ziming looked at the phone nervously, and Tian Baozhu also leaned over with a worried face: "What's wrong? Ziming, did the debt collectors find us? Then let's run away!"

As he said, he hurriedly put on his shoes, picked up his bag and was about to leave.

"It's okay! It's not... I bought the painting!"

"Ah? Scared me to death..." Tian Baozhu patted her chest, it turned out she was buying a painting!It seems that we will be able to get out of this ghost place soon.

Huo Ziming looked at the number on the phone, feeling faintly worried.He always felt that this buyer was not simple...

The next morning, Huo Ziming woke up early, and he quietly got dressed.Hiding behind the curtain and looking out the door, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

After walking two streets, it is a long food street with food stalls on both sides.This kind of place is the first choice for young people's nightlife. Seeing that the garbage left over from last night was still scattered on the ground, he covered his mouth and nose. If he died before, he would never come to such a place to eat.

And now he skillfully walked to a breakfast shop and bought a few breakfasts. This is the most affordable breakfast shop at this time.

“It’s soy milk again~”

Tian Baozhu frowned, drinking cold soy milk, the deep-fried fritters on the table were overcooked, as hard as a rock.

"By the way, the buyer who called you yesterday, are you going to meet?"

"Hmm..." Huo Ziming looked at the time and said, "The car should be here soon!"

Hearing this, she quickly drank the remaining soybean milk in the bowl, wiped her mouth and said, "Okay! I'll go with you!"

"What? You want to go too? You wait here!" She couldn't even control her mouth, how could she be allowed to go on such an occasion?
"What? Don't forget, the money..."

"You also have a share of the money! I know~" She was interrupted by him before she could finish speaking.

Tian Baozhu curled her lips, of course she would follow, it was a multi-million dollar deal, if they negotiated a good price and she didn't know about it, it would be bad.

At the entrance of the hotel, a white BMW car slowly stopped in front of the door.

The clean car body was in stark contrast to the dirty street around him. Huo Ziming had been standing at the door waiting for a long time.

The driver stepped down from the cab quickly, wearing a dark suit and polished leather shoes.

"Mr. Huo Ziming, please..."

Tian Baozhu trotted out, glanced at the car, with a disdainful expression on his face: "What are you talking about, the big boss, the car he drives is not very good!"

She regretted it if she could do it. The configuration of the car is like a car in a science fiction movie, and the comfortable leather seats feel great.

"My God~" She waited and looked at the contents of the car, "This car must be very expensive, right? May I ask where your boss made his fortune!"

The driver sneered: "This car is custom-made, the only one in the world. As for the boss, you will see it soon!"

"Tch~ it's still mysterious!"

Huo Ziming looked out of the window helplessly, feeling extremely anxious.

Who will this mysterious buyer be?
After making several turns, the car came to a street that Huo Ziming was familiar with, which was the only way to go to the Huo Group.

"Is this boss around here?"

The driver didn't say a word, but concentrated on looking at the road, Huo Ziming had a bad premonition in his heart.

After passing a speed bump, the car turned into an underground parking lot.

The driver took out his work card and swiped it on the elevator, then reached out his hand to signal: "Mr. Huo, please!"

The elevator went all the way up to the [-]th floor, and when the door was opened, the magnificently decorated lobby greeted the eyes.

Walking in is a spacious reception room, where a man and a woman have been waiting for a long time.

"Why are you?" Tian Baozhu shouted again in a loud voice.

Huo Linjie crossed his fingers, put them on the table, and said coldly: "Please sit down!"

Huo Ziming fell into an ice cave in an instant, his feeling was right, this buyer was not easy.

"Second...second uncle..."

"Don't call me second uncle!" Huo Linjie scolded, Huo Ziming blinked in shock.

Growing up in Huo's family at the same time, the two also knew the importance of that painting, but he didn't expect Huo Linjie to know his plan so soon.

Tian Baozhu looked around the living room, every decoration in the room exuded the smell of money.She who has eaten at the stalls for several days is very jealous. If she had known that this kid was so promising, she should have cured him up.

He said flatteringly: "My brother! Don't get angry with the child, Ziming has a reason for doing this!"

Huo Linjie sneered, and looked at Tian Baozhu contemptuously: "In this room, you are the least qualified to speak. He sold that painting to pay off your gambling debt, right?"

Her face turned red immediately, and he knew about such a shameful thing.

"Uh...so...we have our own reasons!"

Huo Ziming lowered his head, feeling ashamed. After a long time, he said slowly: "Second Uncle, I'm here to meet the buyer today. If you want to buy the painting, we can talk about the price. If it's just to criticize me, then I'm sorry, let's talk about it another day!"

These words undoubtedly showed that he had no part in this matter.

Tian Baozhu instantly had the feeling of winning the game. She raised her face triumphantly and raised her voice again: "That's right! Are you going to buy it or not? But some people are rushing to get it!"
