Chapter 65 You're such a show-off!

Jian Ning smiled nonchalantly and commented rationally, "You're such a show-off."

The receptionist's eyes widened in shock. "What did you say?"

Jian Ning said calmly, "It can hold more than a garbage bag."

The receptionist, enraged by that sarcastic remark, instantly snapped, "Ugh, you bitch!!!"

Since coming directly to Yichen Technology wouldn't allow her to see Xiao Heqi, Jian Ning wouldn't waste her time.

She waved and turned away gracefully.

Xu Mingtang and his girlfriend came down from the elevator, intending to have lunch at a nearby restaurant.

I just happened to see Jian Ning leave from the front desk.

He was about to say hello, but the other person was leaving so quickly, and he was holding someone in his arms, so he couldn't catch up.

Xu Mingtang walked to the front desk, knocked on the table, and asked, "What was that woman doing here?"

The receptionist's face, which had been contorted with rage just a second ago, instantly transformed into a beaming smile.

"Mr. Xu, which one are you asking about?"

Xu Mingtang pointed to Jian Ning's departing figure, "That one, she just walked from here."

A flicker of panic crossed the receptionist's eyes. "She said she's here to see the boss."

Xu Mingtang asked, "Then why didn't she go up?"

The receptionist said guiltily, "She didn't have an appointment. I told her the boss was busy, and she left."

"Okay, got it." Xu Mingtang was a shrewd person. He had been by Brother He's side since he was a child and had seen all kinds of people. He reminded her, "If she comes again next time, let her go upstairs."

The receptionist kept her head down, not daring to look at him, and replied, "Yes, Mr. Xu."

Meanwhile, Jian Ning took a taxi back to the resort.

She had just gotten out of the car when she received a call from Nan Nan.

"Ningning, has the matter with the thugs been resolved?"

As Jian Ning walked into the villa, she said, "Not yet, the police are still investigating."

However, she estimated that she wouldn't find out anything from the investigation.

Su Shih-chien is such a formidable figure; he cannot be so easily shaken.

“I watched the replay of your live stream, it was really too dangerous.” Zhang Nan made up his mind, “No, when I get back, I’ll move in with you.”

Jian Ning didn't mind.

Are you sure your boyfriend will agree?

Zhang Nan said, "It doesn't matter whether he agrees or not, I'm just really worried about you."

Jian Ning's mood improved a bit, and she smiled and said, "It's good that you have this intention. Just enjoy your sweet life with your boyfriend. Didn't you see how agile I was in that replay video? Most people are no match for me."

Zhang Nan remembered, "Oh right, Ningning, how did you suddenly become so amazing?"

"Of course, I've been exercising since I retired from the entertainment industry, so don't worry."

Jian Ning comforted Zhang Nan, telling her not to worry.

"Alright." Zhang Nan nodded and brought up the matter that Director Zeng had asked him to do: "By the way, Director Zeng said that the mosquito repellent sachets should still be bought at the normal price, but he asked if you could send him two vegetable blind boxes."

Jian Ning was somewhat surprised: "Vegetable blind boxes?"

"Yes, he said his wife and kids really like the vegetables you grow. The automatic refund for the vegetable blind boxes last time really upset his wife."

Jian Ning chuckled lightly: "Of course, just send me the address."

"Okay, I'll ask around and send it to you later. Ningning, I still have other plans, so I'll talk to you later. Take good care of yourself in Beicheng."

"Okay, take care of yourself too."

The phone hangs up.

Jian Ning took a detour to the vegetable garden, picked some carrots, and also picked some bok choy and spinach.

The medicinal seeds and mosquito repellent bags I ordered online have arrived.

Following the same method she used to make mosquito-repellent sachets last time, she used fire magic to dry the herbs, grind them, and then packaged them into individual bags.

Two hundred mosquito repellent sachets are ready.

She then packed the carrots, bok choy, and spinach into separate brown paper bags. Zhang Nan sent her the address, and she booked a pickup service online.

She and the deliveryman have developed a new understanding.

The deliveryman sent her a text message when he was almost at Huayue Villa.

Jianning put Alaska on a small cargo sling and dragged the things to the gate of the resort. There would be a note attached to each item indicating which address it was to be sent to.

Today is no exception.

Alaska watched excitedly as she brought out the baby carriers.

"Woof~" More cargo to haul! So happy!

Jian Ning had never seen such a hardworking dog.

The Border Collie, who was chewing on a crocodile toy and swinging it around, seemed to sense its owner's thoughts and immediately became defiant, letting go of its beloved crocodile toy.

"Aww~" Master, I love working too!
Jian Ning said impartially, "Yes, yes, you are all hardworking little dogs, the best."

The two dogs were satisfied, but the cats lying on the lawn nearby were not.

Meows erupted incessantly, each vying for attention.

Jian Ning shook her head helplessly and praised them one by one.

It's a shame that there's so much fur; it can be a nuisance too.

Every day, scenes unfold where people are more concerned about inequality than scarcity.

After sending the package, Jian Ning sent the tracking number to Zhang Nan.

I received a call from the police right after I sent the message.

The police communicated with her about the latest developments in the case.

The phone numbers used to contact the perpetrators, as well as the calls made during the live stream, were likely virtual numbers, making it impossible to locate the individuals.

The assailant then confessed, insisting that he had accidentally met Jian Ning, who was beautiful, and that he knew Huayue Villa belonged to her, which led him to have the wicked idea of ​​killing her.

Jian Ning asked, "How many years could he get sentenced to?"

The police officer replied, "For minor offenses of murder, the sentence is three to ten years imprisonment. Attempted crimes will be punished more leniently than completed crimes."

Jian Ning politely replied, "Okay, I understand, thank you."

After being reminded again, Jian Ning needed to cooperate with the procuratorate in reviewing the case.

After receiving the court summons, appear in court on time at the time and place specified on the summons and wait for the court to make a judgment.

If she is dissatisfied with the verdict and believes the sentence is too lenient, she can appeal to a higher court within the prescribed period through her lawyer.

Jian Ning responded to each of them, indicating that she understood.

Overall, it was all within her expectations, so she wasn't too disappointed.

Just like the Foolish Old Man Who Moved Mountains, this mountain of Su Shijian will always be climbed little by little.

No sooner had Jian Ning hung up than her phone rang again.

She instinctively thought it was the police calling, so she answered without even looking at the caller ID.

A strange male voice came from the other end, with a hint of flattery.

"Hello, are you Ms. Jian from Huayue Villa?"

Jian Ning asked, "Is something the matter?"

"I am Manager Xu from Yichen Technology. I would like to schedule a time with you. I wonder if you are interested in selling Huayue Villa? We are interested in acquiring it, and the price is negotiable."

"Not for sale." Jian Ning said those two crisp words, and was about to hang up.

The other party said urgently, "Ms. Jian, please don't rush to answer. Think about it again. Our Yichen Technology's capabilities will definitely not disappoint you..."

Jian Ning's movements seemed to freeze abruptly.

She put the phone back to her ear. "Wait a minute, which company do you say you are?"

Manager Xu proudly uttered four words: "Yichen Technology".

Jian Ning tapped rhythmically on her leg bone with her fingers, pondered for a moment, and her tone was no longer as harsh as before.

"Selling Huayue Villa isn't something we can't discuss..."
