The Qu Family, as one of the prestigious families on Hong Kong Island, although their current reputation is not particularly prominent, their family wealth is considerably substantial. Naturally, they own a manor on the mountain top.
The reason Qin Fang chose to stay at the nearest Hilton Hotel in the mountains was not because it was close to the Qu Family, but mainly because Saint Mary's Hospital, the best hospital on Hong Island where Old Madam Qu resided, was close by.
The reason Qin Fang knew about this hospital mainly came from Shen Liang, who had come ahead of time to scope things out. Although the Qu Family was not a very prominent family, they were still one of the wealthy families on Hong Kong Island. The paparazzi in Hong Kong are notoriously tenacious, and Shen Liang simply spent some money to quickly find out about the Qu Family's affairs, naturally, Qin Fang also became aware of the critical illness of Old Madam Qu...
Although his mother, Qin Qing, had never disclosed it, Qin Fang could understand his mother's thoughts, which led him to make such a decision. However, he still maintained an appearance of "I know nothing," not wanting to burden his mother with unnecessary worries...
The Hilton Hotel is a top-tier global chain hotel, found in almost every bustling metropolis. As Hong Kong is one of the three major trade centers of the world, it's impossible for it to be absent there.
Qin Fang directly booked the most luxurious presidential suite, and despite the considerable expense, he did not even blink an eye.
Qin Qing, though having lived a rather difficult life in recent years, is after all a lady from a wealthy family. Originally, she was a rich girl who spent money like water.
Now, she also understood that her son, Qin Fang, had greatly changed; although not completely clear about the extent of Qin Fang's wealth, she vaguely guessed it was definitely not a small amount.
Being his mother, she naturally knew him the best. Without such substantial wealth, he wouldn't exhibit such a demeanor... Therefore, Qin Qing didn't say much, and when Qin Fang handed her a card, she accepted it without even asking!
It was a black card from Citibank, and not just a regular black card but one with platinum borders. Although Qin Qing left Hong Kong Island quite early and didn't know the details of such black cards, she vaguely understood that this card seemed to be limited edition, apparently only available to tycoons who have deposits of over 100 million in the bank.
The 100 million here is not in RMB, but in US dollars...
Seeing this bank card, Qin Qing already had a rough idea about her son Qin Fang's wealth and felt there was no need to ask any further!
If only Qin Fang knew that his mother treated this black card as one of those limited edition cards, he might barely be able to suppress a laugh.
This card is indeed limited edition, but the Citibank logo on it is just a front; to be precise, the bank that issues it should be considered an underground moneylender.
The card is a joint issuance by the Underground Alliance, only members of the underworld forces that have been certified are eligible to get it, such as members of the Assassin's Alliance Three-Star Assassin and above.
Although Qin Fang earned a satisfying amount of points from killing Sinan, his rank within the Assassin's Alliance is still only that of a Two-Star Assassin, hence not qualified to have this card.
But he does have someone by his side who can claim it—Su Xiaoxiao of the Assassin Alliance Three-Star Assassin. This card is actually Su Xiaoxiao's, only borrowed by Qin Fang for usage.
Qin Fang himself does indeed have 100 million US dollars; converting it to RMB, it's just over six billion. The cash, checks, etc., he took out from Li Rui's safe alone were already worth this much, and Qin Fang's own assets are about two billion or so...
However, as these funds come from dubious sources, and Qin Fang is currently in the spotlight, even if he wanted to launder this money, he would have to be very careful.
Moreover, those kinds of black cards are purely for show. Qin Fang, who prefers to keep a low profile, might not even like such high-profile items...
If it hadn't been to outdo the Qu Family this time, he wouldn't have borrowed this card from Su Xiaoxiao just to flaunt his status. After all, customers can decide the appearance of such a card during customization according to their own preferences.
That is to say, if you wish, this card could even be made to look like a bank card from any bank on the Mainland, or even DIY your own design without any issues.
Su Xiaoxiao's just happens to be customized to look like this platinum black card from Citibank, but in fact this card is not registered in Citibank's database at all...
Of course, even if Citibank knew about it, they wouldn't dare say anything. No one dares to contend with the underground world... because it is a chaotic and dark world, and those who contend might find themselves with slit throats in their sleep one day!
"The child has grown up…"
Looking at the black card in her hand, Qin Qing couldn't help but silently sigh, happy for Qin Fang while also increasingly looking forward to that man's return.
"You guys go have fun on your own, I'll be fine just strolling around by myself…"
Having not returned for twenty years, everything once familiar had become strange, and the whole of Hong Kong Island had also undergone tremendous changes.
It was Qin Fang's first time on Hong Kong Island, while Tang Feifei had visited once before when she was younger, but her family was very concerned for her safety and didn't let her explore much before leaving.
Qin Qing sent Qin Fang and Tang Feifei out to have fun and then went out for a walk herself...
"Okay, mom, just be careful. Call me anytime if you need to…"
To facilitate communication among each other, they had all switched to new mobile phones. Qin Fang understood very well what his mother planned to do; she most likely intended to visit Old Madam Qu at Saint Mary's Hospital first, since she was her mother and critically ill – an understandable decision.
Of course, Qin Fang couldn't possibly refuse and readily agreed.
Qin Fang and Tang Feifei went out to have fun, since it was their first trip to Hong Kong Island and they definitely wanted to experience all its scenic spots; otherwise, it would have been like making the trip for nothing.
In order to avoid arousing his mother's suspicions, Qin Fang took Shen Liang with them, but secretly left two people behind for protection, as this was Hong Kong Island, not Ninghai, and Qin Fang had to ensure his mother's safety.
Therefore, Qin Fang had specially deployed a few people from Chen Da in advance, who came with Shen Liang. They had been secretly protecting Qin Fang and the others without revealing their presence, and naturally, Qin Qing was unaware of this.
As expected, shortly after Qin Fang and the others left, Qin Qing also departed the hotel, walking toward the direction of Saint Mary's Hospital.
From the Hilton to Saint Mary's Hospital wasn't very far, at most just two kilometers, obviously, Qin Qing had already checked the route beforehand...
Although she had left Hong Kong Island for twenty years and the island had changed immensely, the city planning done initially on Hong Kong Island was much more reliable than some cities inland, with the major roads having not changed too much. Relying on her memories from twenty years ago, Qin Qing was able to find her way to Saint Mary's Hospital.
Indeed, the news from over there confirmed this, as Qin Qing walked for about twenty minutes and found Saint Mary's Hospital...
The journey had been calm, and Qin Fang felt relieved...
"Don't worry, Auntie will be fine…"
Seeing Qin Fang end the phone call, Tang Feifei by his side comforted him with concern.
As the future daughter-in-law of the Qin Family, Tang Feifei also knew the purpose of the mother and son's visit to Hong Kong Island. Seeing Qin Fang's nervous and worried expression, she couldn't help feeling a bit heartbroken for him.
"Hopefully that's the case! Sigh, it's just that I'm worried about those people from the Qu Family…"
Qin Fang nodded slightly, knowing he might be a little too worried, but with his mother's unresolved heartache, if she were to confront the Qu Family people rashly, he was afraid that his mother might be at a disadvantage.
However, his mother clearly didn't wish for him to have a direct conflict with the Qu Family people, and it wasn't good for him to stay by her side at all times. Thus, he could only remotely control the situation and ensure his mother's safety...(To be continued.
