Chapter 226 Couple Doubles Zhang Ming smiled and said to the young man, "I have already agreed." The young man laughed and said, "Brother Zhang, thank you so much! You really helped me a lot this time." Zhang Ming smiled and nodded, waving his hand modestly, indicating that he was just making a phone call. The young man didn't care and patted Zhang Ming on the shoulder: "Brother Zhang, I'm grateful for your kindness. I'm leaving now and won't disturb you at work. See you at noon." Zhang Ming stood up and walked him out of the office. He stood at the door and watched the young man walk down the corridor to the stairs before he looked away. However, he did not return to the office. Instead, he turned around and walked along the other side and went up the stairs on the side. "Chief Li, is the leader free now?" Zhang Ming came to Secretary Li's office and asked with a smile. Although Secretary Li is only at the section level, two levels lower than Director Zhang Ming, he is close to the leader, so anyone who wants to enter this door has to be looked up to. Secretary Li did not dare to act solemnly and received the guests with a smile. The most taboo thing for a secretary is to take advantage of others. There are some things that can be done but people cannot say them out loud, at least you have to save face. "Director Zhang, please wait a moment." Secretary Li said politely and picked up the phone from the desk.

After a while, he came back and said to Zhang Ming: "Director Zhang, the leader asked you to come over." Director Zhang thanked him, walked to the office next door, knocked on the door and entered. Father Zhao was sitting behind his desk, reading a document. He looked up at Zhang Ming and said calmly, "Xiao Zhang, please sit down~" Then he put down what he was holding, leaned back in his chair and asked, "Did the kid from the Liu family leave?" Zhang Ming replied, "Let's go." Father Zhao nodded and said, "What did Weidong say?" Zhang Ming said: "Liu Bing asked me to help him arrange a meeting at noon, but Comrade Xiao Ning doesn't know the situation yet." Father Zhao said "hmm" without commenting: "Okay, I understand." Zhang Ming said, "Well, do you think you should tell Xiao Ning about this so that he can be prepared?" Father Zhao waved his hand and said, "No need. This world doesn't always give you opportunities. This time we'll see if he's tough enough at the critical moment." …… At noon, Ning Weidong came to the state-owned guesthouse arranged by Zhang Ming. Because it was not far from the company's courtyard, Ning Weidong did not ride a bicycle. It can be seen that Zhang Ming put a lot of thought into arranging this place. Regardless of the level, at least in terms of distance, Ning Weidong was taken into consideration. Ning Weidong arrived on time and as soon as he reached the door, he saw Zhang Ming and a young man of medium build standing at the door. Ning Weidong took two quick steps and said with a smile: "Director Zhang, I'm late~" Zhang Ming shook hands and said with a smile, "Comrade Weidong, you're welcome. Come, let me introduce you to Comrade Liu Bing, from Dingsheng Trading Company under the Academy of Sciences." "Comrade Liu Bing, nice to meet you." Ning Weidong looked at the other party and shook hands with Liu Bing. As soon as he heard the title, he knew that this so-called Dingsheng Trading Company should be similar to the Dongyi Company in nature. Both were enterprises affiliated with the collective name. At the same time, Ning Weidong also realized that the person in front of him should be the main character today.

After a brief greeting, the three of them walked into the guesthouse. The interior isn't luxurious, but it's definitely not shabby either. After walking through a long corridor, we came to a spacious private room of 30 square meters. There was a round table in the middle, with two dignified-looking waitresses standing inside. Although Zhang Ming was nominally the host, he didn't say much once they entered the private room and let Liu Bing do what he wanted. Liu Bing is also a very presentable person. He speaks very nicely and is thoughtful. He has prepared two of the signature dishes here in advance, both of which require a lot of effort to cook. He also asked Ning Weidong what his dietary restrictions were. After the food was served, we didn't rush into business and just started chatting about all sorts of things. Only when the atmosphere became lively did Liu Bing let the two waiters go down. Ning Weidong knew as soon as he saw it that meat dishes were coming. He glanced at Liu Bing with a smile, waiting for his next words. Liu Bing said with a smile: "Brother Ning, let me first apologize to you." Ning Weidong raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Brother Liu, where did you get this from?" After a few drinks, it was normal for us to call each other brothers even though it was the first time we met. It's just that no one would really take the brothers in such occasions seriously. Liu Bing said: "I have a friend who works at Huaguo Bank. I heard that you made a fortune recently~" "Really?" Ning Weidong did not comment. He had originally guessed that Liu Bing was looking for him probably for the more than 80 million cash that had just entered his account. It’s not surprising that the other party brought it up now. Liu Bing said, "Brother, I won't beat around the bush. I'm in trouble now and I want to ask you to help me out." There was no expression on Ning Weidong's face. He neither refused nor agreed immediately. He just leaned back in the chair, staring into Liu Bing's eyes without saying a word. Liu Bing frowned at him, and Ning Weidong calmly took up the napkin to wipe his mouth: "Then I wonder how you want to deal with it?" Liu Bing pursed his lips and stretched out a finger. Ning Weidong frowned. This finger of the other party was obviously not worth ten thousand yuan. As for one hundred thousand...it was probably unlikely. Since Liu Bing made it clear that he has connections in the Bank of China, he knows how much Ning Weidong currently has in his savings. "One million?" Ning Weidong asked. Liu Bing has just introduced himself. Since he dared to appear in front of Ning Weidong so openly, he is definitely not an unknown person. Liu Bing's family background is somewhat similar to Li Yuanchao's. Although it is slightly inferior to Li Yuanchao's, it is also remarkable. Hearing "one million", Liu Bing's expression flashed with displeasure, and he immediately said, "Ten million! Lend me ten million, Brother Ning, can you help me with this?"

Ning Weidong narrowed his eyes slightly. He had underestimated the thickness of the other party's face. He is not satisfied with one million and actually asks for ten million. Although he said it was a loan, Ning Weidong knew that once the money was lent out, it would be like throwing meat buns at a dog and no one would pay it back. If it was one million, Ning Weidong might consider it. Considering the other party's family background, it seems not impossible to spend one million to make friends. After all, he had more than 80 million yuan on hand, and it would not be a loss to take out one eightyth of it to buy a friend like Liu Bing. But the other party asked for 10 million right away. This was not the attitude of making friends, but rather treating him as a sucker. This is absolutely intolerable. If we tolerate this, Zhang Bing, Li Bing, and Wang Erbing will appear one after another. Not to mention 80 million, even 800 million will not be enough to pay. And once you give it at the beginning, you will offend people if you don’t give it later. More importantly, those who got the money first would not be grateful, and would even curse Ning Weidong as an idiot behind his back. "Ten million~" Ning Weidong snorted and looked at Zhang Ming: "Director Zhang, your meal is quite expensive." The corners of Zhang Ming's mouth twitched, and he felt extremely embarrassed. He didn't expect Liu Bing to ask for such a high price. He only knew that Liu Bing approached Ning Weidong through him for money, and he only thought of it as a matter of hundreds of thousands or millions. He never expected that Liu Bing had such a big appetite. Otherwise, he would never have called Ning Weidong. But I still can't explain it. If he didn't explain, he would just offend Ning Weidong. Even if he explained, he would not get any good result from Liu Bing. It was like Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror and finding himself ugly both inside and outside. Zhang Ming simply started pretending to be dumb and didn't say a word no matter what Ning Weidong said. Anyway, he had informed Zhao's father about this matter in advance. No matter how Ning Weidong treated him, it didn't matter as long as Zhao's father had no prejudice against him. When Liu Bing saw Ning Weidong attacking Zhang Ming, he knew that he could not put pressure on Zhang Ming at this time. He knew that he had cheated Zhang Ming this time, but he was not afraid. At worst he could compensate him later. As long as he could squeeze some money out of Ning Weidong, he would give some to Zhang Ming. He was not afraid that his anger would turn into joy. Liu Bing said: "Brother Ning, you don't trust me, Liu Bing. Do you think our Liu family's reputation is not worth 10 million?" Ning Weidong looked at Liu Bing again and understood the other party's implication. This is to make him weigh the pros and cons. If he doesn't lend the money today, he will not only offend him, Liu Bing, but also the Liu family he belongs to. Don't be ungrateful. Ning Weidong narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a neither too loud nor too soft voice, "Idiot!" Liu Bing was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Ning Weidong to say this to him. He expected Ning Weidong to bargain with him. After all, he asked for a high price and then paid a low price. I also thought that Ning Weidong might refuse outright and complain angrily.

Or get angry and complain to the elders in the family. In short, he didn't expect Ning Weidong to turn hostile and call him a "idiot" right away. "What did you say!" Liu Bing reacted and became furious. From childhood to adulthood, no one had ever scolded him like this except for his childhood friends who grew up together in the compound. Even those childhood friends never cursed me like that again after they grew up. He immediately slammed the table and stood up suddenly. Ning Weidong looked up at him and stood up as well. Standing at a height of meters, he looked down at him and said, "Are you freaking deaf? I said you're an idiot." "You're looking for a beating!" Liu Bing rushed up angrily, his face instantly flushed red, and he immediately rushed up to fight with Ning Weidong. Zhang Ming next to him was stunned where he stood. He didn't expect the two of them to turn against each other so quickly. Before Liu Bing could stop him, he raised his hand and hit Ning Weidong in the face. This is what Ning Weidong was waiting for. Since you started it first, don't blame me for 'self-defense'. Ning Weidong was so fast that he saw Liu Bing raise his hand and then he arrived first and slapped Liu Bing on the face. With a "pop" sound, even if Ning Weidong restrained his strength, it was not something that ordinary people could withstand. Liu Bing's eyes suddenly went dark, he felt the world spinning and he seemed to be flying into the air. Then I heard a "crash". Ning Weidong is left-handed. He sat on the right side of Liu Bing and slapped Liu Bing with his big slap, causing him to fall onto the table. Although the table was not completely knocked over, the plates and bowls were scattered all over the floor. Seeing the two men fighting, Zhang Ming quickly rushed forward to stop them, shouting "We can talk it out, we can talk it out." He knew that Liu Bing was a troublemaker, but he didn't expect Ning Weidong to be even more stunned. He secretly groaned in his heart. Today was a mess. At the same time, it suddenly dawned on me that it was no wonder that Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu were a couple. If they were not from the same family, they would not be from the same family. What was he thinking? Did he think Ning Weidong might be easy to talk to and would allow Liu Bing to blackmail him? Fortunately, Ning Weidong did not pursue the victory and stopped after only hitting once. Liu Bing paused for a few seconds and stood up from the table. He felt half of his face was numb. He had just been lying on the table, and the soup was all over his body. His hands and body were sticky and he looked extremely embarrassed. "Ling Weilong, keep it cold inside..." Half of Liu Bing's face and gums were swollen, and his voice was out of tune. Ning Weidong didn't even give in, and retorted, "What am I waiting for? For you to hit my hand with your face? You shameless thing, you want 10 million right out of your mouth, aren't you afraid that the wind will blow your tongue away! If you dare to talk nonsense again, believe it or not, I will send you to the orthopedics department of Jishuitan to stay there for half a year." "You...you..." Liu Bing's hands were shaking with anger. It would have been fine if he couldn't beat him in a fight, but Ning Weidong was meters tall and weighed over 180 kilograms, so he was not in the same weight class as him. But he couldn't win in scolding him either. Ning Weidong finished speaking and didn't give Liu Bing a chance to speak. He glanced at Zhang Ming, turned around and left without saying a word. Zhang Ming didn't care about Ning Weidong at this time. He was relieved to see him leave. At the same time, Liu Bing also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as his brain had regained its function. Since Ning Weidong dared to hit him the first time, it means he is not afraid of his family background. If he dared to hit him the first time, he will dare to hit him the second time. A good man does not suffer immediate losses.

Under the current circumstances, continuing to confront Ning Weidong head-on will do him no good and will only cause him secondary harm. At the same time, Liu Bing felt a little regretful. He thought he had picked an easy target, but he ended up hitting a brick wall. In fact, the reason why Liu Bing dared to ask for such a high price this time was that he wanted to bully Ning Weidong and treat him as a son-in-law. In his experience, people like Ning Weidong, who come from ordinary families and squeeze into their circle, usually have inferiority complex in their bones, and few of them can really toughen up. Unless you are like Ning Weiguo, who has a particularly strong relationship with his lover and holds a certain position in a government agency. Liu Bing believes that Ning Weidong has neither of the two characteristics. He knew Zhao Ruyu, knew Zhao Ruyu's character, and also knew some details about the marriage between Wang Jiagen and the Zhao family. I feel that under this circumstance, Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu would not have any feelings for each other. Second, Ning Weidong did not join the government, but set up some company. This situation means being a rich and idle person, who has no value in cultivation. Based on these considerations, Liu Bing dared to ask Ning Weidong for a high price. Unfortunately, he didn't know that his two so-called standards were not applicable to Ning Weidong at all. First of all, the relationship between Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu is stronger than that of most ordinary couples. Not only do they share a common secret and economic foundation, Ning Weidong also suppresses Zhao Ruyu in the area that she is most proud of, making Zhao Ruyu convinced from the bottom of her heart. The second is the status in the family faction. Ning Weidong, as the link between the Wang and Zhao families, has now released two tons of gold as a token of his allegiance, and he also has a project to open up a fast connection. Although his status is not as high as Zhao Lichun and Wang Chen, he is not a son-in-law in the general sense. Therefore, Ning Weidong had the confidence to attack Liu Bing instead of just acting recklessly out of bravery. After coming out of the private room, Ning Weidong did not go back directly. After beating someone, there is one more step, which is to ask the bad guy to file a complaint first. When I arrived at the front of the guesthouse, I politely said to the staff, "Hello, comrade. I want to make a phone call." Dial Zhao Ruyi's workplace: "Hello, please come, I'm looking for Zhao Ruyi... My name is Ning Weidong... Ruyi, someone hit me just now..." On the other end of the phone, Zhao Ruyu was stunned when he heard it and wondered if his ears were broken. Someone hit Ning Weidong! The guy who could kill a cow with one punch was beaten up! He even complained to her... Normally, she should be angry when she heard that her man was beaten. But Zhao Ruyi couldn't get angry when she held the phone, and said unhappily: "Talk nicely~" Ning Weidong stopped joking and explained the situation again. Finally, he said, "This is the situation. What do you think we should do?"

Zhao Ruyu was furious and said immediately, "Wait, I'll be there soon." With a bang, Zhao Ruyu slammed the phone down, his face gloomy. The person next to him was startled and asked, "Xiao Zhao, what happened?" "It's okay~" Zhao Ruyi said perfunctorily, then gritted her teeth and muttered: "Liu Bing, you are trying to steal my money!" Although she is younger than Liu Bing, she has been tall and strong since she was a child. Especially when she was in her teens, girls develop quickly and she often played with older children. Although Liu Bing and I are not from the same compound, we get together occasionally and we know each other. "Sister Chen, I'm going out for a while. If I'm not back by 1:30, please tell the director for me." Zhao Ruyu said hello to her colleague and walked out angrily. Ten million! What belongs to Ning Weidong is hers. Liu Bing asking Ning Weidong for 10 million is the same as snatching it from her pocket. My uncle can tolerate it, but my aunt can’t. Zhao Ruyu drove her 212 car like a gust of wind and arrived at the guesthouse Ning Weidong mentioned in less than ten minutes. With a "squeak", the brakes were stepped on hard, and the tires rubbed against the ground, leaving several black marks. Zhao Ruyu got out of the car, went up the stairs two steps at a time, and saw Ning Weidong standing by the front desk as soon as she entered the door. He went up and asked, "Weidong, where are the people?" As for what Ning Weidong said on the phone about being beaten by Liu Bing, Zhao Ruyu didn't believe it at all. Three Liu Bing put together would not be enough to knock out one punch from Ning Weidong. What a coincidence! Ning Weidong raised his hand and pointed inside, and Zhang Ming and Liu Bing happened to come down the stairs. Just now after Ning Weidong left, Zhang Ming tried to persuade and comfort Liu Bing, who sat down to calm down and cleaned up the vegetable soup on his body before coming out. Unexpectedly, Ning Weidong did not leave and also lured Zhao Ruyu here. Zhang Ming saw Ning Weidong leaning against the front desk as if nothing had happened, and Zhao Ruyu who was looking aggressive, and he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. This guy wasn't satisfied just playing alone, so he brought others over to play mixed doubles as a couple. Zhao Ruyi was stunned. Seeing Liu Bing's swollen face, he turned to look at Ning Weidong and asked, "Did you hit him?" Ning Weidong drooped his eyelids and said, "He wants to hit me and won't let me fight back?" Zhao Ruyu blinked her eyes and said, "There's nothing wrong with what you said~" Then she turned to look at Liu Bing and Zhang Ming and walked over with big strides. Ning Weidong also followed over. He wanted to see how Zhao Ruyu would deal with Liu Bing. In a blink of an eye, the two men came up and faced Liu Bing and Zhang Ming. Zhao Ruyu directly ignored Zhang Ming. In fact, Zhao Ruyu knew Zhang Ming, but in this situation, ignoring him was the best option. Otherwise, involving Zhang Ming would only make things more complicated. Zhao Ruyi stared at Liu Bing, and after two seconds, he said, "Liu Bing, you are really awesome. You extorted 10 million from our Weidong, and even beat him up if he didn't give it to you!"

Liu Bing's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, "Are you blind? Isn't it obvious who hit who from my appearance?" He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhao Ruyi! Don't talk nonsense. Blackmail and 10 million are nonsense." He could not admit to the charge of extortion no matter what, and as for ten million, it was even more impossible. Zhao Ruyu, however, was talking to herself, not following his words at all. She turned her head to look at Ning Weidong and said with great sorrow, "Weidong, you too. You give things to people when they ask you for them. Do you know who they are? If we offend them, they will punish us and we won't even have a place to bury our dead." Ning Weidong could hear Zhao Ruyi's weird tone, so he immediately cooperated and pretended to be scared: "Ruyi, what should we do now!" He looked at Liu Bing again: "Brother Liu, I was wrong. How about you be magnanimous and forgive me this time?" Zhao Ruyi echoed the sentiment: "Alright, stop talking about these useless things. Now, while the bank is still open, go and withdraw the 10 million. We will send it to Uncle Liu's house right away." The more Liu Bing listened, the more he felt something was not right. He had known for a long time that Zhao Ruyu was not someone to be trifled with. Back then, she only had a rolling pin and would chase after three or four boys older than her and beat them up, and her attacks were quick and ruthless. Now that he has grown up, his temper has not changed at all, and he still draws blood with every blow. It's just like she said. If I go to the bank and withdraw 10 million in cash and send it to his house, his old man will beat him to death with a belt. Of course, it would not be good for Zhao Ruyi and Ning Weidong if the news got out. It would only hurt the enemy a thousand times and hurt oneself eight hundred times. But to others, this may seem like bluffing, but Zhao Ruyu's personality may suggest that he would do it. Ning Weidong was still trying to get out of the way, and said angrily, "Ruyi, how can this be possible? The money belongs to the company, it's collective property!" Zhao Ruyu sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do. Let alone the collective ones, even if it's from Guo's family, we have to send it. Otherwise, they will get angry and send someone to arrest you. If you die without knowing why, how can I live like that?" Zhang Ming was listening at the side and stole a glance to see that Liu Bing's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Liu Bing said angrily, "Zhao Ruyi, stop pestering me! Ning Weidong is the one who hit me now, are you blind?" Unexpectedly, before he could finish his words, Zhao Ruyu slapped the injured side of his face again with lightning speed. With a crisp "pop" sound, Liu Bing's injuries were further exacerbated and he almost jumped up from the pain. Zhao Ruyi rolled her eyes like a tigress, "Who are you calling blind? Believe it or not, I will take off your masks." "You..." Liu Bing felt extremely aggrieved. The couple was beating him up. Is there any law left? Is there any rule of law? Seeing that he was glaring with anger, Ning Weidong stepped forward and stood next to Zhao Ruyu and said, "Why are you glaring at me? If you dare to touch a hair of my wife, I will rip your throat out." Liu Bing blinked his eyes. This couple was simply a pair of living bandits. Zhao Ruyu, however, had a loving look on her face. Once upon a time, her ideal partner was like this. They would fight and curse each other together. He was not the so-called calm and self-controlled one, and he would be gentle to outsiders and would not let her suffer grievances. Liu Bing felt disgusted when he saw this. You two are showing your affection, so I'm here to help you improve your relationship~ Zhao Ruyi also knew that the current situation was not right, so he quickly calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Liu Bing, tell me~ How do we solve this matter today?" Liu Bing thought to himself, how the hell am I going to solve this problem? I didn’t even get a penny and I got slapped twice. I’ve lost all my dignity and face. But seeing Zhao Ruyu's momentum just now, he was also afraid that Hu Niu would really take out 10 million in cash and bring it to their doorstep. That's a big deal. Liu Bing weighed the issue in his mind and remained silent for a long time. Zhao Ruyu waited for a few seconds and said, "Since you haven't made up your mind, let me tell you what I think. In today's incident, you blackmailed our Weidong first, which was wrong first. After being rejected, you still wanted to hit him, which was even more wrong..."

Liu Bing immediately shouted angrily: "Bullshit, he was the one who hit me!" Zhao Ruyi was so angry that he said, "You started it first. If you don't hit me, then you are useless." Liu Bing choked and almost couldn't breathe. Zhao Ruyu added, "You still scold me after this... Forget it, I won't mention the scolding. I heard that you bought a new Bluebird car. You can compensate us with the car and let this matter go." "Fuck~" Liu Bing was stunned after hearing this. He was beaten up, called a loser, and finally had to pay for a car. He simply decided not to argue with Zhao Ruyu anymore. He knew there was no point in continuing the argument today, so he just got up and left. Zhao Ruyu and Ning Weidong did not stop him. They watched Liu Bing leave the guesthouse and then turned to look at Zhang Ming. Ning Weidong was the first to say, "Director Zhang, I'm sorry." Zhang Ming smiled bitterly and said, "I really didn't expect that... Forget it, I'll go back and report to my leader~" Ning Weidong understood the hidden meaning in his words and knew that Zhao's father knew about this matter. He immediately guessed that Zhao's father wanted to see how he would respond to this situation. Whether a person is strong or weak is probably determined by nature. At critical moments, when facing pressure, whether you are tough or weak, and whether you can withstand the pressure is very important. After understanding what Zhao's father was thinking, Ning Weidong didn't feel any disgust, because he had done similar things before he traveled through time. A young person who looks good always has to face this kind of test. If he can pass it, he will be selected and reused. If he fails, he will have no hope of getting a key position. As for Ning Weidong's performance, Father Zhao was probably satisfied. At least Ning Weidong dared to take action and beat Liu Bing. He was not timid or afraid of this or that. After Zhang Ming returned, he immediately went to Zhao's father's office to report the situation. After hearing the whole story, Zhao's father didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said it was too outrageous, but he felt quite relieved in his heart. Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu, to put it bluntly, are birds of a feather flock together, but to put it nicely, they are a harmonious couple. Anyway, they are a good couple. But this matter cannot be left unresolved like this, he has to finish it. After sending Zhang Ming away, Zhao's father picked up the phone and made a call. After a while, the call was connected, and Zhao's father smiled: "Hello, is this Sister Wang? This is Xiao Zhao... I have something to report to you... You know our girl Ruyi, she's like a tomboy, and she's recently started dating someone... Oh, don't mention it, they're a perfect match, a pair of rascals, and just now they had a conflict with Xiaobing..." This old sister Wang is Liu Bing's biological mother, and she herself is also an old Ge Ming. When Zhao's father called her "sister", he was not referring to her husband but to her personally. As for Liu's father, his rank is two levels higher than Zhao's father, but they are not in the same system. If you really want to be picky, he can't control Zhao's father. On the other side, Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu came out of the guesthouse. After getting in the car, there was no rush to leave. Instead, the two discussed what to do next. Although it felt good to hit Liu Bing just now, those two slaps were not in vain. Ning Weidong said: "Ruyi, tell our dad about the situation first. Zhang Ming was here just now, otherwise we can't hide it."

Zhao Ruyu nodded. She also knew how to judge a person by his appearance. Liu Bing was not an ordinary person. Ning Weidong added: "Also, you should find a way to spread today's events as soon as possible. We can't offend Liu Bing in vain. We must kill the chicken to scare the monkeys and let others know that we are not a place to beg for money. If you want to make a move, think twice before comparing yourself with Liu Bing." Zhao Ruyi responded: "Don't worry about this, I know what to do." Ning Weidong took a deep breath: "Okay, let's go to our dad first~" Zhao Ruyu started the car and drove straight to the office building of the Ministry of Machinery. …… An hour later, Li Yuanchao was tending to the horses in the stable of the suburban club when a young man in his twenties suddenly trotted over from outside and said with great excitement, "Yuanchao, have you heard? Liu Bing was beaten up." Li Yuanchao was stunned and turned his attention away from the horse: "When did it happen?" The young man said, "It happened at noon." Then he winked and said, "Guess who hit me?" Li Yuanchao frowned. It was not uncommon for these kids from the compound to fight with each other. It was just that in the past two years, as they had grown older, they were not as reckless as they were when they were sixteen or seventeen. And everyone has their own things to do. Some are soldiers, some are officials, and some are busy making money. Among them, there were a few who had conflicts with Liu Bing and dared to take action, but judging from the young man's teasing expression, it seemed that it was not that simple. Li Yuanchao said, "Okay, stop playing dumb. Who is it?" The young man chuckled and said, "I heard that Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyi beat Liu Bing's mouth so hard that it was swollen." Li Yuanchao was slightly surprised: "They? Do you know what's going on?" The young man gloated: "Liu Bing deserves this bad luck. He is so stupid..." He then told the story of how Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu's Dongyi Company had made a fortune, and Liu Bing wanted to take advantage of the situation, but was rejected by the two of them. Finally, he did not forget to laugh at Liu Bing. Liu Bing and Li Yuanchao are old acquaintances, as they used to be from the same compound. Their parents are of similar generation, and they are both the youngest in the family, so they are always comparing themselves with each other. As a result, Li Yuanchao always suppressed Liu Bing, and Liu Bing was not a pushover either, so naturally their relationship was not very good. It is no surprise that people around Li Yuanchao gloated over Liu Bing's beating. "What a good trick to kill the chicken to scare the monkey." Li Yuanchao walked out of the stable. The sun at two o'clock in the afternoon was very dazzling. He raised his hand to block the sun and sneered, "Liu Bing, that idiot, is probably being used as a pawn this time." The young man who was following him asked in surprise: "As a gun user?" Li Yuanchao said, "What else? Although it's no secret that Ning Weidong has over 80 million in the bank, it didn't spread that quickly. Even if Liu Bing has connections in the bank, he couldn't know about it immediately, unless... someone told him on purpose." The young man suddenly understood. Li Yuanchao said calmly: "Go check who this person is."

The young man nodded and turned to leave. …… At the same time, in the two-story building of the Liu family. Liu Bing had just arrived at the hospital and had not yet treated the bruises on his face when he was called back by his mother. At this time, Liu Bing stood there with a wronged look on his face, his cheeks still swollen. His mother was wearing a green military uniform and sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face. "Tell me, what happened?" Liu Bing swallowed his saliva but dared not say anything. His mother snorted coldly: "What, you've already done it, but you don't dare to say it?" "Mom, I~" Liu Bing didn't know what to say. Mother Liu glared at him and said, "I'm not your mother! Look at what you did. It's fine that you wanted to bully others, but you didn't even suppress them. You even got beaten up! I followed the team to Shaanxi Province when I was twelve, and I killed the first Japanese devil with my own hands when I was fifteen. How could I give birth to a useless person like you?" Liu Bing lowered his head, squeezed his legs tightly together, and didn't dare to fart. Although his father was strict, he and his brothers and sisters were more afraid of his mother. No matter how strict his father was, he was usually busy with official duties and hardly paid any attention to them, but her mother really beat them. "Speak!" Liu's mother shouted angrily. Liu Bing raised his head, looking constipated, knowing that he couldn't keep quiet at this moment. "Mom, you know that crazy girl Zhao Ruyu, and that Ning Weidong, who is over meters tall and weighs 200 pounds, is like a blind bear. How can I beat him~" Mother Liu let out a long sigh and said unhappily, "You know you can't win, but you still go and provoke them! Do you think that your father is a high-ranking official, and our Liu family is so and so, so you can only bully others and others dare not touch you?" "I~" Liu Bing was speechless. This was what he thought. But he didn't expect that Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu didn't fall for it. Mother Liu snorted, "Stupid!" Liu Bing felt unconvinced and subconsciously raised his head. When he met Liu's mother, his eyes immediately lowered again. Mother Liu continued, "You are always being flattered by your friends, and you don't even know your last name. You are all born by your father and raised by your mother, so what right do you have to bully them? And they can't even fight back. Don't say your father isn't the king of heaven. Even if he is, it won't work now!" Liu Bing shuddered, lowered his head and dared not say a word. After Liu's mother had taken a few breaths and vented her emotions, her tone softened: "Tell me, how do you know Ning Weidong is rich?" Liu Bing said: "A friend of mine in the bank told me. I mentioned it to him a while ago and said I needed some funds." "Friend?" Liu's mother sneered: "Did he tell you where the money came from?" Liu Bing was stunned. He really didn't know this. He only knew that there was more than 80 million in cash in Dongyi Company's account.

Seeing this, Liu's mother got angry again: "I told you you're stupid, but you still don't accept it. Where did such a large sum of money come from? Don't you even think about it? The money is in the account, but who does the money belong to? What is it for? You don't even ask?" Liu Bing finally reacted and couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "Mom, you mean the money..." Liu's mother let out a long sigh: "It was remitted from the General Logistics Department." Liu Bing's face changed, and he suddenly realized that it was no wonder that his mother was so angry, and it actually involved the army. Mother Liu asked, "Have you realized it now?" Liu Bing nodded with a bitter face. Liu's mother said, "Tell me about your friend in the bank. You still want to cover up for him now, but he may not really consider you as a friend." Liu Bing's face darkened, like a deflated ball, and he whispered, "It's Tang Wanning~" Liu's mother had a look of no surprise on her face: "The Mechanical Department, Tang Xianjun's daughter." Liu Bing said "hmm". Liu's mother's eyes widened again: "Speak louder, don't be such a sissy." "Yes!" Liu Bing shouted with his neck stretched. Liu's mother was satisfied, and her expression eased a little as she said, "That's not bad. How old are you? You're a grown man, and you're being played around by a little girl. I remember that girl is only 22 this year~" Liu Bing's old face turned red. Now that things had come to this, he knew that Tang Wanning was being used as a gun. "Mom, I..." Mother Liu snorted and said, "Think of a solution yourself and talk to the Zhao family about this." Liu Bing looked embarrassed and didn't respond. As a mother who knows her son best, she said in a deep voice, "Why? Do you feel wronged? Do you think the Zhao family is unworthy?" "No~" Liu Bing said one thing and meant another. Mother Liu sighed and said, "You~ What can I say about you? You are not a child anymore. Your father and I don't expect you to achieve much, but you must understand some basics. The Zhao family is nothing, and our family is not afraid of them, but you must remember that this is not how you make enemies. This matter must end here." Liu Bing dared not say anything more. Mother Liu added, "As for that girl from the Tang family, I'll give you two options. If you really like her, I'll find a matchmaker to propose marriage to her in a few days during the National Day holiday. Otherwise, stay away from her in the future." Liu Bing was stunned. He didn't expect it to be like this. If it were before today, he would have chosen the first one without a second thought. But now, Tang Wanning's behavior made him waver. Being able to use him like this without considering him at all, is this kind of Tang Wan Ning really the lover he wants? Born in a family like Liu Bing's, he has been able to easily obtain resources that are unimaginable for other peers since he was a child. Growing up in such an environment, he is destined to not become a bootlicker. Liu Bing pursed his lips and said, "Forget it~ Mom, don't worry about this."

Mother Liu nodded, and was quite satisfied with her son's attitude: "Okay, you're not that stupid." …… At the same time, in the corridor on the third floor of Huaguo Bank. A woman in her twenties walked hurriedly to the door of a large office, looked inside and waved. After a while, a very beautiful and dignified woman of medium build came out and asked, "Xiao Yu, what's wrong?" "Sister Wan Ning, something happened." The woman said breathlessly, "Just now, Liu Bing was beaten up!" The person who was called out was the slim, beautiful, dignified and intellectual woman, and it was Tang Wanning. The one called Xiaoyu is Wang Yu, the daughter of Wang Guoqiang from Red Star Factory. They are not only colleagues, but also very good sisters since childhood because of the relationship between Wang Guoqiang and Tang Xianjun. When Tang Wanning heard this, she frowned in surprise. Although she instigated Liu Bing to cause trouble for Ning Weidong, she never expected that Ning Weidong would dare to attack Liu Bing. This is a common problem among people like them. Even if they don't say it, they think they are born extraordinary. People like Ning Weidong, who come from ordinary backgrounds, always have to be cautious when facing them and dare not do anything to them. Tang Wanning was surprised and asked, "Who beat him? What happened?" Wang Yu said, "It was Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu. I heard that they cornered Liu Bing and beat him. The chairs were smashed to pieces and Liu Bing's head was split open." After being passed on three or four times, the rumor becomes extremely mysterious. It was only his face that was swollen, but when it was spread here, it was interpreted as a broken head.
