It's okay for me to bully my wife for the sake of the young master's dignity, right?

Chapter 223 [084] The soul is gone, the body remains
Night fell, there were no stars or moon, and looking from the outside, the 100th floor of the Ding family's "main building" was dimly lit.

Ding Julou and Ding Jinwei were talking in a secret room with the highest defense level.

Ding Julou, who was sitting behind the streamlined desk, had aged 10 years overnight. With gray hair on his temples, he weakly questioned his son in his chair:

"Why don't you seem sad? Your sister was treated so cruelly, and you even lowered the reward I offered privately?"

Ding Jinwei held his head and chest high, walked back and forth in front of the desk with his hands behind his back. The special craftsmanship of the floor made his footsteps silent.

"Father, in history, there have only been two people who have offered bounties over 100 million yuan: Qin Qi, the president of the Night Dragon Society, and Alexander, the president of the Nian Society. If we offer too high a price for Qin Jiandan, it will make the bounty hunters afraid to take action, right?"

"And according to regulations, the reward amount must be deposited into the police department's account. If you offer a reward of 5 million yuan for Qin Jiandan all at once, wouldn't that just be letting the Han family take the interest and providing food to the enemy?

Ding Julou did not quite agree with Ding Jinwei's statement:
"After all, you are not as heartbroken as I am! Why don't you like your sister? Yunxian respects you very much. She has never respected anyone since she was a child!"

Ding Jinwei stopped and looked at his father behind the desk:
"I can't say I hate Yunxian, but ever since Yunxian came into being, you, father, have been acting impulsively and without regard for the consequences. Although the Ding family is powerful, it can't withstand unnecessary trouble. If it weren't for Yunxian's bad personality, what happened last night could have been avoided."

"You, you actually said something bad about your sister!"

Ding Julou rushed out of the desk angrily, but he did not rush towards his son. Instead, he rushed towards a large life support device placed on the west side of the secret room.

"Yunxian! Look at how Yunxian has been tortured! Who knows when she will wake up!"

The appearance of the life support device is similar to that of the regeneration capsule, but it looks more technological. It is not filled with liquid, nor is it placed at a 45-degree angle like the regeneration capsule. Instead, it is laid flat like a coffin.

From the glass cover on the top of the "coffin", you can see Ding Yuyunxian's fair and delicate face. The rest of her body is blocked by instruments and seems to be connected to various tubes and syringes.

Ding Jinwei looked at his father with his hands clinging to the "coffin" in a daze, with a look of contempt on his face:

"She is actually dead. There is no point in letting her survive as a vegetable. Father, please wake up."

“Nonsense!” Ding Julou turned around angrily, “I finally used the regeneration chamber to repair Yunxian’s injuries, and then asked the company’s medical team for help to build a life support device tailored for her! Yunxian will definitely wake up!”

Ding Jinwei frowned, he remembered how hysterical his father was last night, how he illegally stuffed the corpse into the regeneration chamber, and then used the authority of the head of the family to summon company personnel to try to resurrect Ding Yuyunxian from the dead.

"Father, the company also said last night that Yunxian's brain cells died too much. Although the part that stores knowledge is still preserved, her personality and memory are completely irrecoverable."

As if to prove her brother's words, Ding Yuyunxian's sleeping body suddenly spasmed, her eyes rolled back, destroying the tranquility of the "Sleeping Beauty", and saliva flowed from the corners of her mouth in a disfigured manner.

"Yunxian! Yunxian, are you dreaming? It must be very painful in the dream, right? My Yunxian!"

Ding Julou started to cry again. Ding Jinwei gritted his teeth but there was nothing he could do.

"Father, how many times have you applied for company aid for Yunxian? The Ding family's aid quota for the next 10 years will be used up, right? Since the outside world believes that Yunxian is dead, we should not leave the body here..."

"This is not a corpse! Yunxian will definitely be resurrected!" Ding Julou glared at his son fiercely:

"The company is omnipotent. Even if the brain is severely damaged, it doesn't matter. The company will definitely find a way to replace the dead brain cells! Then I will extract my memory and let the company re-input the personality of Yunxian in my memory!"

Ding Jinwei was slightly surprised:
"Can you do such a thing? Father, you are not imagining things, are you? If it is really feasible, don't forget to give Yunxian a more lovely personality, at least don't cause trouble for the Ding family anymore." "Your sister is the cutest person in the world! I won't change Yunxian's personality in the slightest!"

Ding Yuyunxian fell asleep again in the life support device, with traces of saliva at the corners of her mouth. Ding Julou was afraid of disturbing his daughter, so he didn't dare to speak too loudly next to the device:

"You don't need to interfere in the matter of resurrecting Yun Xian. Just kill Qin Jiandan quickly and avenge your sister!"

"Of course." Ding Jinwei finally talked about his interest. "For the reputation of the Ding family, Qin Jiandan must die. I have contacted the Chief of Police and asked him to sign up Qin Jiandan for the Superman Arena."

"You contacted the Chief of Police to do this?" Ding Julou was surprised and suspicious. "Qin Jiandan is willing to participate?"

Ding Jinwei is full of confidence:
"Qin Jiandan can't come to the inner city unless he clears his identity. He will definitely participate in the competition in order to get close to Han Muyue. When the time comes, I will make Qin Jiandan kneel down and die in front of everyone."

"Okay, okay, very good!" Ding Julou walked slowly away from the life support device, stumbling as if a dying man had found a life-saving straw.

"Qin Jiandan must die! If he really dares to participate in the competition, I will hire all the previous champions of "Superman Arena" and make his nine opponents, including you, all champion-level powerhouses! I want to see Qin Jiandan's flesh and blood smeared on every corner of the arena!"

Ding Jinwei heard the sound of his father's teeth gritting his teeth. It seemed that his father really hated Qin Jiandan to the extreme.

"Qin Jiandan is not that easy to kill." Ding Jinwei walked to the sofa on the east side of the secret room and sat on it with his legs crossed.
"I watched the video of Qin Jiandan's fight on Yunxian Tower. His power obviously improved during the fight. The Steel Armor Breathing Technique is a martial art that gets stronger the more it is hit. It seems to be true. What if I am killed by Qin Jiandan in the ring? Who will father rely on to manage the family in the future?"

"What do you mean?" Ding Julou held onto the edge of the desk in confusion. "Don't you have the confidence to defeat Qin Jiandan? That's not something you would say."

"Of course I will win." Ding Jinwei clasped his hands in front of his chest, "But I risked my life to avenge Yun Xian. Father, you need to confirm my position as the heir to the family head."

Ding Julou looked gloomy: "You are my only son. As long as you promise to take good care of Yunxian in the future, I will not pass the position to anyone else."

"Just a verbal promise won't do." Ding Jinwei pressed his head and neck back against the back of the sofa. "Several of my uncles are eyeing the position of head of the family. Father, you have to hold a formal family meeting to make sure that I can manage the Ding family without interference in the future."

"I promise you, as long as you can avenge Yun Xian!" Ding Julou blurted out without thinking, "I will call a family meeting after you kill Qin Jiandan!"

Ding Jinwei was unmoved: "There are still 10 days before the release of Superman Arena. Why don't you hold a family meeting in advance, even a video conference, to decide my inheritance rights first?"

"..."

Ding Julou knew that his son was negotiating with him, but he was so angry that he didn't care about anything else in order to avenge his daughter.

"I promise you this too! I will hold a family meeting in three days and let you inherit the Ding family after I die! This way you can participate in the Superman Arena without any worries!"

Ding Jinwei finally smiled:
"Then thank you for your trust, father. I will spare no effort to kill Qin Jiandan and bring prosperity to the Ding family."

There was something in his heart that Ding Jinwei could never say out loud.

Qin Jiandan really helped a lot by killing my trouble-making sister. It would be even better if he could go berserk in the Superman Arena and kill my father as well...
