Chapter 57: The Visit

After listening to Jiang Ning's analysis, Pei Heng spoke, "Your guess is correct. Yesterday, the mastermind behind that incident was indeed Jiang Zhaozhao."

As he spoke, the man slowly stepped forward.

"How do you plan to retaliate against her?"

Jiang Ning let out a long sigh and murmured quietly, "I haven't thought about it yet..."

Due to the time difference, Davion still had work to do today. Li Chen checked his watch; it should be nighttime in Paris.

The leather-jacket-clad manager was right in front of him, showing not a single trace of wariness. Zhao Zixian thought to himself that a single blow would be enough to take him down. Moreover, even without his guard down, standing in that position with his back to Zhao Zixian, any precautions would have been futile.

"Hey, Brother Wu, look over there." As the three of them were preparing to come down from the city wall and enter the East Fort, Zeng Zhiwei nudged Wu Siyuan and pointed into the distance.

"Uh..." Zhao Zixian's brain short-circuited instantly. "Are you really still a student?" *Damn it, are you a student or a delinquent? Are all students nowadays this crazy? Not going back to school every night and hanging out in bars outside—don't you know how dangerous that is?*

Xia Haoran was a man with a strong sense of principle. Once he decided on something, he would execute it meticulously and thoroughly. With a few quick motions, he stripped off his shirt, baring his torso.

Su Yinzheng let out a cold snort, casting a sideways glance at her. "We've been sleeping together for so long, yet you're still so shy. It's not like I haven't seen your body. Isn't it a bit too late to be acting scared now?" He reached out and pinched her swollen, flushed cheek. "Since you don't want me to take it off, take it off yourself."

Puff! Wang Xue spat out a mouthful of vital essence, her body lunging forward. Her back had been struck squarely by Chernov's fist.

Clearly, David was unhappy about this. This originally fell within his administrative scope—even though the Huake Fund had maintained relative independence from the very beginning, the later loan funds still went through Yong'an's accounts.

Furthermore, these guests had all been brought in by this incident, and now they were actually showing goodwill toward Wang Haoming, which made everyone's attitude toward him even more respectful.

After giving his instructions, he immediately left the reception room, intending to go upstairs to explain things to Tang Xiaoxiao, only to have his path blocked by someone.

Before these people could even react, they felt an intense itch all over their bodies. Looking down, they saw every inch of skin and muscle on their bodies rotting away at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"President Ning, I've told you all the news. I still have the issue of the fake identity to clean up. You handle whatever comes next properly; I've got my own mess to deal with." With that, the person in charge hung up the phone.

"I still feel like there's something not quite right about this Meng Fei," Zhang Ning said. Being a man himself, Zhang Ning shared that distinct intuition.

Without needing any reminder, Liu Qingshan was already fully prepared. He deliberately left two creatures alive to kill slowly, restoring his state as he welcomed the trial of the next stage.

At this moment, the man who had been sitting on the sofa finally stood up. He walked over to Si Baiye's side, his large hand gently tousling the boy's hair, and then walked upstairs in silence without uttering a word.

Massaging his temples, Zhou Yiran knew it was over. Fu Qi was also an obstinate person; once he preconceived that this matter was Ning Mo's fault, there was virtually no room for explanation.

[Lian Yi]: You know that in your situation, being rejected is nothing, but once it becomes the spark for ridicule and contempt, you know the consequences.

She glanced sideways at Huo Xian'er sitting diagonally opposite her. Ever since Huo Jiuting made it clear that he disliked her, Huo Xian'er hadn't caused any trouble. She hadn't even protested about her coming to the dinner table, eating her meal quietly and obediently the entire time.
