Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“I’m her friend.” Huo Tingchen introduced himself without waiting for Jiang Yining to speak. It was slightly provocative.
Lu Zhi frowned.
“I don’t know him well.” Jiang Yining imdiately distanced herself from him.
She never liked being forced.
If this person wanted to befriend her, it would still depend on her willingness!
“Did you hear that? My wife said she doesn’t know you well.” Lu Zhi’s expression relaxed slightly but his voice was still shuddering icy cold.
“Cutie pie, 1 shouldn’t have upset you but you can’t just cast out like this, right? Look, your husband looks like he’s going to beat up.” Huo Tingchen smiled and spoke like they were best friends.
Lu Zhi knew nothing about Jiang Yining’s network.
When he heard what Huo Tingchen said, a layer of coldness quickly rose from the bottom of his pitch-black eyes.
“Please leave at once. We don’t welco you at our ho.”
Was he declaring ownership over Jiang Yining?
Huo Tingchen looked at the possessive Lu Zhi and mocked in his heart.
The Lu family had taken away everything he had back then.
He did not expect to et Lu Zhi’s wife today.
The day will co when he would take back everything that belonged to him!
“Cutie pie, he’s chasing away. Can you bear it?”
“Get lost,” Jiang Yining spat.
Huo Tingchen put on a sad face and said, “Cutie pie, you’re in a bad mood today. See you another day!”
With that, he turned and got into his car.
Pervert. Jiang Yining cursed in her heart.
She thought that he was different from the rest when she first saw him. But when he creepily followed her and tried to get close to her, he was probably not a good person. It was better to stay away from him.
She looked up as she was thinking and t Lu Zhi’s gaze.
He stared at her, his lips pursed into a straight line, as if he was trying to figure sothing out.
Jiang Yining felt a little guilty. “I’m really don’t know him well.”
“If you don’t know him well, why did you take his car back?” Lu Zhi asked coldly.
That would be a long explanation…
Jiang Yining thought for a mont and chose to remain silent.
Lu Zhi’s face was long as he said, “Jiang Yining, 1 would neither interfere nor care about the kind of friends you have. But in the future, don’t bring random people like him into the house. I don’t like it.”
Jiang Yining felt a little upset. How were her friends random people?
Did Lu Zhi only think of people like Chen Kexin and Tao Niannian as worthy friends? Unfortunately, in her opinion, worthy friends weren’t just those with statuses or impressive family backgrounds. She was willing to befriend anyone with good character and kind heart!
Jiang Yining was very unhappy, but she knew that this was his ho where he had the final say!
She had no right to decide who was welco here.
Jiang Yining suppressed her anger and said, “Okay. Noted.”
Lu Zhi let out a cold chuckle when he heard that; he thought that she would throw a tantrum because he didn’t welco Huo Tingchen into their ho.
Without saying another word, he let go of her waist and walked into the courtyard.
Jiang Yining stood still for a few seconds before she walked in too.
Because Jiang Yining was angry with Lu Zhi, she didn’t even have dinner and went back to her bedroom. Then, she turned on her computer and used her special investigation network to find information about He Ming and the casino.
He Ming’s casino was not small, so he must have so powerful people behind him.
She must investigate the casino thoroughly and wipe them out!
Let’s see how they would harm more people!
After more than an hour of investigation, Jiang Yining finally had so clues.
The casino was owned He Ming’s cousin, He Ling. She was in poor health, so she let He Ming manage all her businesses and rarely appeared in public.
He Lian’s husband was Tao Siyuan, from the Tao family that was one of the four big families in A-City. They had money and status, untouchable by most people. Wasn’t Tao Niannian also hoity-toity in front of her because of her family background?
This Tao family was really a den of thieves.
Jiang Yining sneered as she devised a plan.
But there was no hurry…
If she wanted to take down such a place, she would need sufficient evidence, or she would tip off the enemy, giving them the chance to escape.
That wouldn’t be good.
anwhile, Qi Feng entered the study quietly and gave Lu Zhi a report of their tailing of Jiang Yining.
Lu Zhi clenched his fists furiously after he read the report.
She actually went to challenge He Ming and his gang by herself?
This girl really didn’t treasure her life at all!
“Sir, Young Madam has humiliated He Ming. That guy definitely won’t let it go. Should we send soone to protect her in secret?” Qi Feng asked.
“No need. If He Ming wanted to do sothing to her, she wouldn’t have gotten out of that place.” Lu Zhi was worried about Jiang Yining, but he was very clear-headed and calm. “The person who brought Yining back today is very strange. Go and investigate his background.”
He felt that the person looked familiar, but he couldn’t rember where he had seen him before.
Lu Zhi never liked things getting out of control.
But Jiang Yining had been an exception.
Since she ca into his life, he felt that more and more things were getting out of control.
Lu Zhi knocked on the table and said, “Also, send soone to collect evidence of He Ming’s cris. I want him to disappear from A-City!”
“Yes.”
Qi Feng was very surprised when he heard this. His young master rarely ddled in other people’s business, but he had repeatedly made enemies because of the young madam.
He knew that He Ming was a mber of the Tao family, yet he wanted to get rid of him.
He really doted on Young Madam…
Qi Feng left the study.
Lu Zhi looked at the photo he was holding and his tense body relaxed after a while.
His fingers brushed past Jiang Yining’s face, his eyes revealing a complicated expression.
The night was dark, but the He residence was brightly lit.
He Ming knelt on the floor, his forehead covered in sweat. “Master, I’m sorry.”
Huo Tingchen was sitting on the sofa, playing with a sharp knife in his hand. His nonchalant face was cold as he said, “Do you know what you did wrong?”
“I… I shouldn’t have made a bet using the casino with that little girl on impulse.”
“I don’t care about the casino. You can just give it to her if you lost.”
He Ming broke out in even more cold sweat when he heard this.
Huo Tingchen could tell that he was nervous. He chuckled and said, “All Ming, when your cousin recomnded you to , she said that you were smart, steady and mature. I don’t care about your aptitude, but you must be cautious when you work for . But these few years when I asked you to manage the casino, you’ve acted very high-key and provoked many people. Tell , do you think that 1 should still let you work for ?”
“Master, I’ve done so much for you! The earnings from the casino have multiplied over the years!” He Ming quickly defended himself.
Huo Tingchen had always been ruthless. If he gave up on soone, there would only be death.
He Ming didn’t want to die!
Huo Tingchen said, “I told you already, I don’t care about the profits. 1 have plenty of money. You don’t have to worry about . I only asked you to stay in A-City to help gather information.”
“Yes, yes, Master.”
He Ming nodded hard like he was smashing garlic with his head.
Huo Tingchen looked at him coldly for a mont before he said, “I’ll give you one last chance, He Ming. Don’t disappoint again.”
He waved his hand, beckoning He Ming to co closer.
Then, he whispered a few words in his ear.
He Ming swore, “Master, don’t worry, 1’11 get it done.”
“Good..”
