Fade Chen raised his head and puffed out his chest. Then, the hot and agonizing night went by.

The next day, Fade got out of bed in a daze with dark circles around his eyes. His wife had already got up. After washing up, she put on her clothes and urged Fade, "Get up quickly. It's already the second day. There's not much time left."

Fade knew that his wife was talking about the issue regarding Jeremy Lin. He didn't answer and got up quickly from the bed.

As a result, he forgot that he wasn't wearing anything last night as he got out of bed. Suddenly, he was naked, and this caused Quin Lin's pretty face to turn red. She turned around in a hurry. Fade chuckled, put on his clothes quickly, and washed up. Then, he went downstairs with Quin.

When the boss and waiters of the hotel saw Fade and Quin, their attitudes were even more enthusiastic than when they saw their own parents. They brought breakfast and asked what kind of service they needed.As long as

Fade and Quin ordered something, they will serve it to them.

Since there was breakfast, Fade and Quin didn't bother to go out and eat. They ate breakfast in the hotel, and Fade talked to his wife about rescuing Jeremy.

They only had one picture from the message and the address of Fuma Town. The specific place where Jeremy was located was not mentioned at all. If Fade and Quin relied on themselves, it would be impossible for them to replace Jeremy within the stipulated time.

Therefore, the most reliable way now was to replace some local people and ask them to help them look for him. Maybe they would still have a chance to replace him this way.

Just as Fade had secretly decided to look for Brother Mantis and the others, Brother Mantis and the hotel boss came over respectfully. They greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Chen!" "Er, why are you here?" Fade said. He was a little surprised by their appearance.

Brother Mantis bent down and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, Big Brother Gu, our boss, wants to meet you."

"Big Brother Gu!" Fade said coldly as he raised his eyebrows. "What's wrong, Mantis Tang? Did you go back and complain to him, asking Big Brother Gu to teach me a lesson?" Brother Mantis quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, I didn't. Mr. Chen, you misunderstood me."

"Is this really a misunderstanding?" Fade said. He glared at Brother Mantis.

Just as Mantis was feeling afraid and trying to explain the matter, the sound of a deep male voice could be heard. Then, Fade saw a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties walking over.

The middle-aged man was very fat, with a large pot belly. His head was bald. He was smiling, and he looked like a businessman.

The man stretched out his hand to Fade and said, "Hello, Mr. Chen. I'm Fairman Gu."

"Big Brother Gu!" Fade said. He looked at Big Brother Gu's appearance and felt a little surprised. He did not shake hands with Big Brother Gu.

Big Brother Gu seemed to have a good temper. He saw that Fade was not reaching out his hand, but he did not show any discontentment. He withdrew his right hand. Then, he smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I came here early today to apologize to you."

Fade raised his eyebrows and looked at Big Brother Gu in surprise.

After all, according to the hotel owner, Big Brother Gu was definitely the leader of Fuma Town. No matter in the underground world or in the bureaucratic world, he was one of the top masters.

But now, the fat man in front of him was smiling. He didn't seem cruel at all. Instead, he looked quite kind.

Big Brother Gu noticed that Fade did not reply him. Then, he started to explain, "Mr. Chen, I found out what had happened with Mantis last night. I know that he offended you, Mr. Chen. It's a huge mistake. I taught him a good lesson last night."

"Considering that it was late last night, I didn't come to apologize to you yesterday. This morning, I got up early and came to apologize to you, Mr. Chen."

While speaking, Big Brother Gu bent his fat waist with great difficulty and bowed to Fade to apologize to him.

The hotel owner and Brother Mantis behind him also bent down quickly to apologize to Fade.

Big Brother Gu's good attitude of admitting his mistakes really surprised Fade. "Could it be that Big Brother Gu's temper has improved a lot after he was involved in legal transactions, and he no longer got involved in shady dealings?"he thought to himself.

"However, normal businessmen don't have such good tempers!" Fade thought. Anyway, it was a good thing that he had such a good temper.

Since the other party was polite, Fade did not make things difficult for them. He said that everything was fine, exchanged a few polite words with Big Brother Gu, and then that was it.

Big Brother Gu thanked him again, and he bowed to Fade with Brother Mantis and the hotel owner to express his gratitude.

Then, Big Brother Gu asked enthusiastically, "Mr. Chen, you and Mrs. Chen came to Fuma Town for a trip or something else? Is there anything we can help you with?"

At the thought of what had happened to Jeremy, Fade's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at Quin, and she nodded her head. Then, he turned around and looked at Big Brother Gu and said, "Speaking of that, I do need Big Brother Gu's help on a certain issue."

"Mr. Chen, you can tell me. As long as I can help you, I will not refuse," Big Brother Gu said with a smile.

Fade immediately switched on his phone and showed him Jeremy's photo. He said, "I'm looking for this person. I only have this photo. The person told us that he is at Fuma Town. I want to know his specific location

Big Brother Gu looked at the photo for a while and said, "Looking at this picture, the scenery outside the window should be from our Fuma Town. But there are many backgrounds that looks similar to this one here and I am not sure where this photo was taken. I need to replace someone I know to identify the location. It may take some time."

"Big Brother Gu, please do that as soon as possible. The time limit has been set by the other party for us to locate him," Fade said. Then, he sent the photo from his phone to Big Brother Gu.

"Sure, sure!" Big Brother Gu nodded and said. "I'll send the photos out right away and ask people to look for the locals to see if they can locate this place, "he added.

"I'm sorry to trouble Big Brother Gu!" Fade said, and he thanked him.

Big Brother Gu laughed and said, "It's nothing. Mr. Chen is being too polite. Mr. Chen didn't remember our conflict this time. We should thank you."

Fade waved his hand and said with a smile, "Let bygones be bygones!"

Big Brother Gu nodded and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen is generous and kind. We admire you very much. So, Mr. Chen, enjoy your time here with your wife. I'll go back and look for someone first. I will send a message to contact the two of you once I have any news." Fade nodded and said, "Well, thank you very much."

With a smile on Big Brother Gu's face, he waved goodbye and left with Brother Mantis and the hotel owner. The search for Jeremy had some progress and both of their moods suddenly became a little more relaxed.

Quin took a sip of soy milk and said, "I didn't expect the boss of this place to be so kind."

Fade smiled and said, "Maybe it's because he's a businessman now!"

"Yes," Quin said and nodded. "Now, let's hope that we can replace the clues to his location as soon as possible. I hope that Jeremy is alright,"she added.

Fade held Quin's hand and pinched it gently, saying, "Don't worry, I'm here. Everything will be okay."

Quin felt a wave of warmth washing over her. She smiled and nodded her head.
