Chapter 98

The Luo family is not only the strongest financial group in China, but also has a prominent position internationally.

The foreigners who came to the funeral hall today were the ones that the Ning family had tried their best to make friends with.

Looking at her humble appearance, the woman rolled her eyes with disdain.

"How can there be a spineless person like you in China?"

Ning Tinglian was completely stunned by the continuous insults.

She bit her lower lip, feeling very embarrassed.

I don’t know what to say, and I dare not say anything.

Those who came to attend the funeral today are either well-known figures in Beijing or have a place in the international arena.

If it weren’t for Ning Ruchu, their Ning family might not have been invited.

Mrs. Ning naturally lost her temper when her daughter was insulted like this.

She wanted to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Ning Xiangchen, who shook his head and signaled her not to be impulsive.

Mrs. Ning finally calmed down and walked forward with a smile.

"Miss, I'm so sorry. My daughter was too reckless and accidentally bumped into you."

After he finished speaking, he gave a wink to the translator who was walking beside him.

Dong Qingran rolled her eyes slightly, looking very impatient, but seeing that she was sensible, she didn't get angry.

"No, I can understand Chinese."

Madam Ning was stunned for a moment when these fluent and natural words came out.

Then I realized that although the blonde woman in front of me had obvious foreign racial features, her face looked more like a mixed-race.

There were many well-known business people invited to Luo Zhouheng's funeral, and international people accounted for one third of them.

Most of the people who were invited this time came here to make friends and cooperate.

Ning Xiangchen could only think of one well-known overseas family that had an alliance with China.

He came over quickly and asked, "Excuse me, are you the daughter of the Dong family?"

Dong Qingran glanced at him sideways and said "hmm".

Ning Xiangchen's pupils dilated slightly, and he already felt a little bit of awe towards her, and now he felt even more humble.

He bowed slightly, "It turns out to be Miss Dong. I'm so sorry. My daughter just offended you. I apologize to you on her behalf."

Although the Dong family is not as influential as the Luo family, it ranks very high internationally because of its close overseas connections.

The Ning family would never encounter people of this level under normal circumstances.

Seeing this, Madam Ning tugged at Ning Tinglian's arm and bowed to Dong Qingran.

Mockery spread in her sea-blue eyes, and she sneered, "There is a saying in China: 'If a son is not well educated, it is the fault of his father.' You really should apologize."

Ning Xiangchen felt depressed, but forced a smile: "Miss Dong, just don't mind it."

"Of course not. I'm kind-hearted." Dong Qingran snorted coldly and turned away, not wanting to waste time with them.

The pain in her ankle continued, and she walked unsteadily, asking someone to support her.

"Contact me a doctor immediately."

……

Ning Tinglian didn't raise her head until the person walked away, puzzled: "Dad, who was that young lady just now?"

Of course she knew about the Dong family, but even if they had a powerful background, that Miss Dong was being completely unreasonable and causing such a big commotion in Luo Zhouheng's funeral hall. The Luo family would naturally come after her.

Why should they be so humble?

"Shut up!" Ning Xiangchen scolded in a low voice, warning: "That Miss Dong's family is one of the partner families of the Oliveland Consortium, the most powerful consortium in the whole of Amelia."

In the whole of China, only the Luo family, the Dong family, and a very few other large families can compete with them.

"Not to mention, they have also gained political support. Even consortiums with greater influence than them dare not easily provoke them."

Madam Ning held Ning Tinglian's hand, patted it gently, and comforted her: "Xiao Lian, I really wronged you this time, but we really don't dare to provoke Miss Dong."

They had to act humble whenever they met, but the Luo family could easily invite them.

Ning Tinglian clenched her fists, and the depression in her heart grew wildly.

……

On the other side, Ling Chuan took Ning Ruchu to the inner courtyard.

"Hello, are you Mrs. Luo?" A foreign face in formal attire blocked the way.

Ning Ruochu raised her eyes slightly, and the other party began to introduce himself: "Hello, my name is Evan, and this is my wife, Jennifer."

The woman next to her walked forward. She was a familiar Chinese face.

"We are deeply sorry for Mr. Luo's accident. Everyone knows that he was a great man. Now that he has passed away, my wife and I are very sad."

Ling Chuan was standing by, helping Ning Ruchu translate word by word.

The tears that had not yet faded from my eyes suddenly overflowed.

Ning Ruchu's voice was weak and her fingertips felt a little weak when pressing the keys. Five seconds passed before she finally got through.

The moment the call was connected, an old voice was heard, greeting me in a joyful and familiar tone: "Little disciple, you finally called me!"

Qiao Weisong was very excited.

When he heard the news of Luo Zhouheng's death, he looked forward to receiving a call from his little apprentice whom he hadn't seen for several years.

When he heard that she was getting married, Qiao Weisong was happy.

But Ning Ruchu was unwilling to reveal her identity, which meant that she could never come back. Qiao Weisong was heartbroken and cursed Luo Zhouheng eight hundred times overnight.

Now that Luo Zhouheng is dead, he can contact his little disciple openly.

The corners of Qiao Weisong's mouth rose unconsciously.

Ran Yunqing happened to be standing next to him, and seeing his silly smile, he was speechless: "It's just a phone call, is that a big deal?"

Qiao Weisong glanced at her and said, "This is your junior sister's phone number."

"I know." Ran Yunqing looked proud, "We just passed it two days ago."

Qiao Weisong: “…”

Damn, I was shown off.

He was so angry that he immediately asked, "Little disciple, have you forgotten about this old man like me?"

The words from the other end came clearly, Ning Ruochu's eyes flashed with helplessness, and her voice was soft, with obvious timidity and helplessness.

"Excuse me, are you the head of Lingxin Hall?"

Qiao Weisong was stunned for a moment, then he angrily said: “You even can’t hear your master’s voice… Ugh!!”

Ran Yunqing quickly covered his mouth and reminded him: "Luo Zhouheng is just dead, it doesn't mean his influence has disappeared."

Only then did Qiao Weisong realize that his little apprentice was still in the wolf's den.

He remained calm and patted Ran Yunqing's hand.

Before he could escape from the shackles, Ning Ruochu's voice came again: "Um, someone here has been stung by a Liberica black fat-tailed scorpion. Can you send a doctor over?"

The panic-stricken words did not arouse Yeyue's suspicion.

Qiao Weisong's eyes lit up.

Isn't the chance to visit my little apprentice here?
Yeyue leaned over and spoke the phone to Ning Ruchu's ear.

"At the same time, the doctor will also be responsible for taking care of the lady. Please choose the best one."

A basin of cold water was poured over my head.

Ye is not a rare surname.

But from her current identity and the respectful tone Ling Chuan used when he mentioned the old lady, Ning Ruchu could roughly guess who she was.

He raised his eyes, with some surprise in them.

"Ah Heng, does he have a good relationship with that old lady Ye?"

Lingchuan is not in a position to reveal too much.

The more you know, the more dangerous the situation becomes.

Ning Ruchu saw that he was silent, so she didn't ask any more questions. She just made a note in her heart to investigate the relationship between Luo Zhouheng and the Ye family.

"The newly hired driver for you is already on standby downstairs." Ling Chuan straightened up.

Ning Ruochu was puzzled: "Why do you want to hire a new one? What about the previous driver?"

Ling Chuan smiled slightly: "Three of them were injured, two won the lottery and resigned, and one returned home to retire."

Ning Ruochu: ...These six guys are really cool.

"This is a very normal situation. Your new driver is an honorably retired member of the Yashengde Royal Navy." Ling Chuan's lips curled slightly, "Accidents are inevitable, and he can protect you better."

Ning Ruchu had known about no less than ten car accidents in the two years since she got married.

On two occasions, she suffered greatly from it, and it was no wonder that the driver refused to do it.

It is not easy for Luo Zhouheng to live till now.

Ling Chuan still has to deal with company affairs, so Ye Yue and Ning Ruo Chu go with him.

In a private parking lot, the elevator door opened and a muscular man suddenly came into view.

He was over 1.80 meters tall, wearing simple black clothes and black pants, and his skin was a healthy bronze color.

Thin clothes cannot hide his powerful and explosive muscles.

The man obviously recognized Yeyue. He nodded slightly at her and turned sideways to lead the two of them towards the car.

Yeyue's indifferent voice seemed even colder in the empty parking lot, as if snow had suddenly fallen.

"He doesn't understand Chinese."

Ning Ruochu looked up and asked, "Then how do I communicate with him?"

"His duties are to escort and protect. There is no need to communicate with him." Ye Yue paused, "If you have any instructions, let me convey them."

Ning Ruochu smiled and said, "Thank you."

He lowered his eyes, and his gentle and calm pupils quickly sank, as deep and mysterious as an ancient pond.

It is protection, but also surveillance.

This driver does not belong to any force under Luo Zhouheng's name.

They didn't want her to associate with other people.

Fate was too strange for Madam Ye to understand for a moment. She could only remind him, "Madam, there will be villains around you during this period. You must be more careful. In addition, you must observe the people around you more. You must know the good and the bad and know how to distinguish them."

Ning Ruochu wrote down everything and said goodbye to Old Madam Ye before leaving.

When he went downstairs, Yeyue immediately came up to him and asked, "What did the old lady say to you?"

Ning Ruochu looked at her quietly: "She told me to be careful of the people around me."

Yeyue nodded, agreeing: "Madam has a simple personality, so we really need to be more careful."

Ning Ruochu was surprised by these words, so she deliberately asked, "Commander Ye, too?"

Unexpectedly, she actually admitted: "I am not a good person, I am just loyal to my husband."

Her loyalty is limited to Luo Zhouheng.

If one day, Ning Ruchu's actions touched Luo Zhouheng's bottom line, she would get rid of her without hesitation!

……

Butler Ye escorted the people out of the house, and the driver was still waiting there.

Hearing the noise, he quickly took back his phone and put on an appearance of doing his duty.

Yeyue glanced at him lightly and said nothing more.

However, when Ning Ruchu passed by, she deliberately raised her eyes and looked at his deep light green pupils.

After getting in the car, the driver glanced at the rearview mirror, his eyes stayed on Ning Ruochu for half a second, and asked, "Where are you going?"

Without any other arrangements, Ning Ruchu was supposed to return to the Pearl Island Villa, but Yeyue received a call in the middle of the trip.

She glanced at Ning Ruchu with a worried look.

Ning Ruchu felt something and said considerately, "If Commander Ye has something to do, you don't have to worry about me."

"It is my duty to protect the Madam." Ye Yue suppressed his expression, "It was just a little trouble caused by my subordinates, it can be solved quickly."

Ning Ruochu sneered.

If it were that simple, why would we need her as the leader?
……

The King underground martial arts training ground in the suburbs of Beijing.

The noisy shouting made Ning Ruchu, who had been pampered for the past two years, feel a little uncomfortable. The air was filled with a faint smell of blood, and the sound of metal colliding could be heard from time to time. The insults from the people at the scene were unbearable to hear.

Ning Ruchu had heard of this place before coming to the capital.

This is where all the martial arts fans in China gather. It can be said that all the powerful martial arts experts outside the national team are here.

Moreover, China's unique Kung Fu sets it apart from those fighting arenas around the world, and many foreign talents also want to learn from it.

After facing the change of identity, Ning Ruchu thought that he had no chance to stay here anymore.

Unexpectedly, the person who came back again was to follow Yeyue - the person who was closely monitoring her.

The two of them were very close, and Ye Yue reminded her in her ear: "There is chaos here, Madam, you must follow me closely."

Ning Ruochu nodded heavily and leaned closer to her pretending to be nervous.

But her appearance was too eye-catching. Even if she lowered her head to reduce her presence, there would still be people who came forward to seek death.

"Hey, beautiful lady, why are you in a place like this?"

"It's too unsafe for a beautiful girl like you to come to a place like this. How about we protect you?"

Several grown men let out powerful laughter that was frivolous and impetuous.

Ye Yue shook his head slightly, staring at the men who spoke so rudely, but his words were addressed to Ning Ruchu.

"Ma'am, please turn around and close your eyes."

Ning Ruchu did as he was told obediently.

When the men saw Yeyue coming forward, they thought she was trying to throw herself into their arms, so they greeted her arrogantly and proudly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he grabbed Yeyue's wrist and broke it hard.

"what--!!"

A pig-slaughtering scream was heard, but it was quickly drowned out by the shouting of the crowd and no one paid any attention.

Jian Taoyue, who was called, was concentrating on eating snacks, not affected by the outside world at all.

Xie Cixing coughed helplessly.

The other party didn't respond.

He coughed several times in succession before attracting Jian Taoyue's attention.

"Should I take you to the hospital?"

Xie Cixing: “…”

This girl is just as disrespectful as ever.

He pointed to his wrist, and Jian Taoyue stared at him and guessed, "Your hand hurts? It should be because you exercised too much in the past two days. You will be fine after resting for a while."

Xie Cixing's expression collapsed, his eyes turned black and he almost fell over, his majestic image was gone.

He gritted his teeth, calmed his voice, and said angrily: "Your injury!"

"Oh~" Jian Taoyue finally reacted and walked straight to Yeyue, putting her arm on her face, "Here, look, it's bleeding."

Yeyue looked at the wound that was less than two centimeters in size and was speechless.

But Jian Taoyue saw that she didn't seem to care, so she tried hard to pick at the wound to make it look more serious.

Ning Ruchu had been trying hard not to laugh just now, but after seeing this scene, she really couldn't hold it back anymore.

Hearing that there was another person in the room, Xie Cixing suddenly stood up, passed Ye Yue and the other person, and stared straight at Ning Ruchu.

I can't see his face clearly, but I can guess who he is.

Xie Cixing: "It seems that Commander Ye is very optimistic about her and even brought her directly to see me."
