Chapter 685 Making a Game
Psychologists like to look for reasons within people themselves and ultimately come to the conclusion that "you are sick."
Fortune tellers can provide more emotional value, which is probably why the elderly are unwilling to believe in psychologists, but like to go for fortune telling regularly every year, and are still happy to do so even if it costs money.
Silly Old Fan had not been to school much, and his brain was not very smart. Living in a place like Hong Kong where feng shui and metaphysics were prevalent, he was easily influenced by the outside world. At this moment, he was obviously confused and continued:
"The master said that although our family's ancestral tomb is good, it is only enough to make a fortune of 40 to 50 billion at most. If we want to move to a higher level, the ancestral tomb must be moved to the most excellent Feng Shui treasure land, so that our family can prosper for three generations and the blessings will continue for future generations."
"I've been having bad luck lately. First, tens of thousands of yuan of money I left in my car was stolen this month. The Rolex watch someone gave me also disappeared. Your new stepmother's business suffered huge losses. I owe a lot of money to creditors and it will cost millions to settle. What's more, I often feel dizzy and the hospital can't find any illness. Yesterday, I almost crashed into a roadside railing."
"Why don't we take some time to go to our ancestral grave together? Could it be that you have offended someone in your business, and someone hired an expert to tamper with the feng shui of our ancestral grave, hoping to harm you with this unorthodox method?"
"."
Rather than thinking about metaphysics, Fan Wumian subconsciously began to think about man-made disasters.
After all, whether it’s lost cash, watches, or a girlfriend’s business losses, it all seems to come down to the word “money”.
He raised his hand to ask Silly Old Fan to wait for a moment, and asked curiously:
"You're living a carefree life, but you're busy looking for a stepmother for me? Who is she? When and where did you meet her?"
"Her name is Axia, she's only 29 years old. She was a makeup artist in a movie she was filming. We fell in love while chatting. Why are you asking this? How about we take some time out to have a meal? Your sister Xia lives with me recently. I feel like I've found the right person this time. She's not after my money and she takes care of me in every way. Have you noticed that I've gained a few pounds recently?"
".You don't need to eat. You are 29 years old. You sound very proud of yourself."
Fan Wumian asked:
"She's a makeup artist. What kind of business is she in? She's losing millions? She's not after your money, and she doesn't have your youth and handsomeness to draw from. It's a bit troublesome. The master also said that there are villains around you who are against you. Think about the strange things you have encountered. Did they happen after you met this Axia? Be careful of being set up by a honey trap. Our family's situation is different now. There are many tricks that are hard to guard against. You must check the people around you."
In this regard, Fan Wumian has always been cautious and has given up many romantic encounters that were within his reach.
It is very troublesome to attack him. Now everyone thinks he is very smart and cannot be tricked in ordinary situations.
On the other hand, Silly Old Fan, who is also a member of the "billionaire family", is very easy to deal with. Just a little bit of sweetness can make Silly Old Fan so bewitched that he loses his mind.
"How could that be? She and I are very compatible. Although there is a slight age difference between us, we can really get along well." Silly Old Fan quickly denied it, just like a love-brained person who is in the passionate love stage. This disease knows no age limit.
After hearing Silly Old Fan say that he got along really well with the other party, Fan Wumian felt that there might be something fishy going on. Otherwise, with Silly Old Fan's way of thinking and personality, it would not be easy for him to meet a truly suitable soul mate.
If he had a normal cheap dad, he would not be as distant as he is now. He would basically cut off all ties with him. Even in the will he drew up just in case, he only left some dividend rights from the family trust fund to silly old Fan, and he could only receive 120 million Hong Kong dollars a year.
This dividend may seem like a lot, but in reality it is just a drop in the bucket compared to Fan Wumian's huge assets.
Too lazy to argue any further, he decisively waved his hand and called Pu Jiajing over, asking her to find someone to investigate the woman named Axia, and to send silly old Fan to the hospital for a detailed examination.
It would have been fine if I hadn't checked, but once I did, problems immediately emerged.
That night, sleeping pills were found in the urine test results at the affiliated hospital of the University of Hong Kong, but Silly Old Fan said that he had never taken sleeping pills.
The next day, a private detective also reported that Silly Old Fan's new girlfriend used to sell alcohol in a bar and had a boyfriend who was a lighting technician in a film crew. The call records showed that they were still in frequent contact recently. The bank card records also showed that Ah Xia had transferred money to her boyfriend many times, and her secret boyfriend had received more than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars from a pawnshop, and the collateral was a gold Rolex watch.
At around 11 o'clock in the evening, the private detective also photographed Ah Xia leaving the Arc de Triomphe community where Sha Lao Fan lived and going to the rental house where her boyfriend lived. She stayed there until just after 6 o'clock in the morning and changed her clothes.
As more and more information was gathered into Fan Wumian's hands, it was easy for him to come to a conclusion - Axia had gotten involved and foolish old Fan was being fooled around.
It seems that it has nothing to do with murder, it is just for money. The sleeping pills that make silly old Fan feel dizzy are probably for the convenience of continuing to meet with her boyfriend at night, so she took the medicine to make him sleep more soundly.
At this moment.
Fan Wumian sat at the desk, hugging Pu Jiajing, who was dressed like a secretary, wearing a white shirt, hip skirt, black stockings and high heels, and said helplessly:
"If this happened to someone else, I might be a little surprised, but I took it for granted that silly old Fan was set up by someone."
"But I always thought that he would be cheated to death at the gambling table, but I didn't expect that the first thing to happen would be a love affair. That Ah Xia is really cruel. She really used me as bait for money and moved in with stupid old Fan. If she was in collusion with her boyfriend, then this is interesting. It's so cheating that it makes people panic."
"I really didn't pay enough attention to Silly Old Fan some time ago. If he hadn't believed the fortune teller and taken the initiative to come to me to communicate, I don't know if there would be a big problem."
Pu Jiajing smiled and said:
"Ever since I met you, you seem to have been calling him 'Silly Old Fan' and not letting him use the yacht or live in the mansion."
Fan Wumian remembered a line from a song and said with a smile:
"He didn't accompany me when I was down, who would he be if I got back on my feet? It's good for us to live our own lives. It would be annoying if we were too close. At first, I asked him to mortgage his house to invest in me, but he said he wanted to keep it for his retirement and not care about me. I've been okay with him, including "Trident", and I've paid him more than one million yuan for all the movies I've made."
Every family has its own problems. Pu Jiajing also knew that Silly Old Fan was a bit eccentric, so she changed the subject and asked, "So what are you going to do next?"
"Let Sir handle it. If he gives me a younger brother or sister, and they're not my biological brother or sister, it will be very embarrassing. If the old one doesn't go, the new one will come. I guess Silly Old Fan will be upset for a few days, and then he will be busy looking for a new stepmother for me."
Just as Fan Wumian finished speaking, he dug a hole and buried himself, and heard Pu Jiajing jokingly say:
"Now I finally understand who you inherited your philandering from. Since he came to work beside you, silly old Fan has already had five or six girlfriends. There are really rich women who are willing to pay for him."
Contact a lawyer and take the collected evidence to report to the police. The case involves Fan Wumian, so the efficiency is amazing.
After taking A Xia away, the woman soon confessed the details of how she and her boyfriend conspired to defraud money from stupid old Fan. It was said that including the stolen cash and watches, they defrauded a total of more than 200,000 yuan. At the end, she did not forget to complain that she did not expect that Fan Wumian's father was so poor that his credit card was limited after only spending more than 10,000 yuan.
In order to prevent Silly Old Fan from getting carried away and going to the casino in Macau for entertainment again, Fan Wumian specially sent someone to contact the bank, and they would only give Silly Old Fan a maximum credit limit of 5 Hong Kong dollars, and would notify his secretary's office immediately if there were any large changes.
I have to say that the woman named Axia is quite pretty, a bit like the young Taiwan actress Ye Quanzhen. No wonder silly old Fan fell into the romantic trap.
Fan Wumian did not intervene too much and only asked a lawyer to follow up. The matter was eventually discovered by the paparazzi and became a hot topic for a while. Some netizens said that such a beautiful woman lived with stupid old Fan for more than a month, and it was not a loss to be cheated out of more than 200,000 yuan.
The outside world knows that Fan Wumian has an average relationship with his biological father, but because of the Rolls-Royce Silver Spur, the Arc de Triomphe house, and the fact that he made old Fan famous, no one says that he is not filial.
The wind blew for two or three days and soon died down.
Just as summer vacation began, "The Invisible Guest" shot last year was finally released. Because it was a Hollywood movie co-starring Fan Wumian and Zuo Ziyan, there was no need for too much publicity. The major cinemas were packed with people, and almost every show was sold out.
