MFAW - Chapter 118 - I am my own backer, I don’t rely on anyone

 Ning Muzhang leaned down, as if he was whispering to the girl in front of him intimately, and his expression was indifferent, as if he was asking what the weather was like today.

Only a few people who were very close could clearly see the provocation in his eyes, and Su Jingjing had a bad feeling in her heart.

What happened tonight was definitely caused by this guy.

Moreover, Xia Chen never came back since he left. Could something really have happened?

"Mr. Li, you have to make the decision for me! My daughter is only twenty-one years old this year, which is a good age. But something like this happened today. What should I do?" Nian Wei cried for his daughter.

What happened at the Li family's place, this person also disappeared at the Li family's dinner, but the murderer was also Li Li's friend.

It is indeed difficult to deal with both the Li family's face and Li Li's side.

The way Nian Wei cried and screamed did not look like he was worried about his daughter at all. Instead, he looked like a debt collector.

The people present also understood more or less that it was worth it to be able to exchange their own daughter for a favor from the Li family.

With the help of the Li family, Nian could become famous overnight. As expected, businessmen always have a clear mind at such times.

Even after experiencing the pain of losing a daughter, he was able to respond quickly.

"Miss Wen Li, please cooperate with me. This matter will have to be dealt with." Li Yuanzhi was also being watched by so many people, so he could only act fairly.

Someone saw a conflict between Wen Li and Nian Yue, and saw the boy next to Wen Li taking Nian Yue away. Now Nian Yue's high heels and a pool of blood were found on the coast.

The matter was already very clear. After it became clear that Wen Li and Nian Yue had a conflict, Wen Li became angry and took action.

"Second uncle." Li Li stopped him without moving out of the way, as if she was blocking him to death.

This is the Li family, and if anything happens, the rules of the Li family must be followed. Even if they belong to the Fu family, the Li family has its own way of doing things.

Many people watched indifferently, watching as the girl who helped Li Li become the most popular girl in the room just now turned into a murderer in an instant.

"According to your rules, if I really did something to Nian Yue, how would I be dealt with?" Wen Li suddenly asked.

Li Li said without turning around, "You won't do that kind of thing. Qian Qian has already gone to find someone, so don't talk to Wen Li yet."

Li Li herself is a child who grew up in the Li family. She is not stupid enough to think that the four major families and the Fu family are all clean and serious businessmen. She knows some things secretly.

In the dark world, there is another way of doing things.

According to the rules of the Li family, if Nian Wei must be given an explanation, Wen Li will be in trouble tonight.

"This needs to wait until the investigation is completed before the results are given." Li Yuanzhi glanced at the girl.

From the beginning to the end, there was no look of surprise or fear on this girl's face, and she was too calm and scary.

"Miss Wen Li, please come with us." The bodyguard in black made a gesture of invitation to the person.

Su Jingjing sat next to Wen Li. As expected of the Li family, no reason was needed for anything.

The smile in Ning Muzhang's eyes became more and more crazy. There will be more and more situations of isolation and helplessness in the future.

Since you are destined to be a person who cannot be on the table, it would be better to stay under the table forever.

If it happens to come out at the wrong time, the result can only be like this.

No matter who it is, as long as he wants, he can play it at the palm of his hand.

Xia Chen gave a warning when letting people in at the door. Nian Yue understood what he said and did not dare to go against Wen Li anymore.

Her arms couldn't twist her thighs, she knew this very well.

"Everyone must remember this woman's true face..."

"Dad!"

Just when Nian Wei was indignant and wanted to say something to the people present, a female voice interrupted him.

A group of people watching the show turned around and saw Nian Yue hurriedly running from the door.

The high school classmates who had just accused Wen Li of "killing people and silencing them" stared at Nian Yue who appeared with their eyes wide open.

This man showed up here with good hands and feet, and rescued Wen Li from the cusp of public opinion.

Nian Wei looked at his daughter who appeared in disbelief, frozen in place with no expression on his face.

"Dad, let's go back first." Nian Yue stepped forward and took her father's hand to leave.

Nian Wei shook his daughter's hand away, "Why are you here!!"

Obviously that person said that his daughter was gone. As long as he could make this matter bigger, his Nian family could reach a higher level.

"Dad?" Nian Yue's eyes widened and she looked at him in disbelief.

Why does her father look so unhappy when she comes back well?

"You shouldn't have come back." Nian Wei looked at his daughter, his eyes full of blame and anger, and there was no joy at all.

Wen Li and Su Jingjing looked at each other, disdain suddenly appearing in their eyes. A father who could exchange his daughter for glory and wealth was not worthy of respect.

"You confirmed your daughter's death without seeing the body. I really want to know, Mr. Nian, how can you be so sure?" Wen Li raised her eyes and met Ning Muzhang's gaze.

The madness in his eyes was restrained, and his expression was indeed not pretty.

"I..." Nian Wei was asked this question and couldn't think of an explanation for a while.

"High heels, blood stains, and the sight of her being taken away, all point to the fact that I am not a good person. Background is the only criterion for all of you to measure a person's character. If you are born into a noble family and have a gold-rimmed surname, will this person have noble character in your eyes even if he commits adultery and robbery? 

In the eyes of these people, surname and origin mean everything. Wearing expensive clothes and serving in gorgeous restaurants is their standard outfit.

And those dark things on the street are something they are not ashamed of.

Those who originally despised Wen Li and Su Jingjing also lowered their heads. In their eyes, low-class street gangsters were not worthy of entering such an occasion.

This world has its own laws, which cannot be overturned by others at will. Even if Wen Li is really killed here today, no one will regret it.

"This is a misunderstanding." Li Yuanzhi spoke first, with a sincere attitude.

Wen Li raised her hand and said, "You and I have nothing more to discuss. Li Li's birthday has passed, so that's it for today."

Su Jingjing followed Wen Li to the gate. The remaining people in the hall looked at each other in confusion.

After a while, someone came back to his senses and shouted in a high tone.

"This girl has no rules and manners, where did she come from!?"

You dare to talk to them like this, you really don’t know how high the sky is.

Su Mengyi looked appreciative, "She has a rather arrogant personality, but she is indeed a talent."

"Such a person, even if she is born in the underground world, lives a bright life, and is definitely not at the mercy of others." Yun Sheng nodded, and his eyes was on the figure of the girl leaving gracefully.

Li Li and Xi Moqian, who had left and returned, rushed out and stopped Wen Li and Su Jingjing at the gate.

"Wen Li!"

The footsteps of the two people were chaotic. Su Jingjing and Wen Li turned around and saw the two little girls running out of breath.

"I'm sorry, it's our fault. You obviously came to bless me, but it turned out like this." Li Li lowered her head in shame.

This matter tonight has something to do with everyone present.

"It has nothing to do with you, so there's no need to feel guilty. The real guilt is not taking things upon yourself." Wen Li looked at the two of them looking ashamed and spoke.

These words can be regarded as persuading the two little girls.

Su Jingjing raised her hand and rubbed their heads, "This has nothing to do with you. Go back. Aren't there still many of your friends inside?"

Although the people who came tonight were not ordinary people, most of the family heads also left after the old lady gave Li Li the necklace.

The remaining ones are mostly young people, children of the same age group as Li Li. After all, it is Li Li's birthday, so the priorities cannot be reversed.

Therefore, if you are young and frivolous, you will naturally make more mistakes.

"I'm useless." Li Li lowered her head.

Xi Moqian also drooped her head. Both of them were pampered and protected. They had seen each other in petty fights a lot. Such things had never happened in formal occasions.

Su Jingjing didn't know how to comfort the two defeated little cocks. She looked up again and saw Ning Muzhang coming from the door.

She patted the two of them on the shoulders and said, "Go back, we still have something to deal with."

The culprit hasn't been dealt with yet, and Wen Li probably won't be able to sleep when she gets back.

The two of them turned around and saw Ning Muzhang walking over with Xing Bo.

"Go ahead. If you really want to make amends, come back another day and I will give you a chance." Wen Li said, looking at the two of them.

Li Li took Xi Moqian's hand and walked back into the hall. When she was approaching the door, she glanced at Ning Muzhang who was standing in front of Wen Li.

"Do you think he recognized Wen Li as the person that night?" Xi Moqian said, staring at the person over there.

"I don't know, but something feels wrong."

Li Li turned back and stared at Ning Muzhang. Every time she looked at Ning Muzhang, there was a gloomy and eerie air.

Now when he faced Wen Li, that feeling was even stronger.

Su Jingjing took a step back and stood next to Wen Li, looking at Ning Muzhang with disdain.

The means are despicable. If the Ning family is handed over to such a man in the future, I am afraid that this power may as well be returned to the Fu family.

"Quite capable." Ning Muzhang stood still in front of her.

No wonder Fu Yuxiu could be captured.

"When nothing is foolproof, your biggest mistake is not leaving a backup plan." Wen Li looked at Ning Muzhang and chuckled.

The undisguised disdain in her eyes was the greatest contempt in Ning Muzhang's eyes.

"In any case, I lost this time. You were so thoughtful at such a young age, and yet you were able to set things up even without reason. This was my negligence."

He should have thought a long time ago that the famous God of Calculation, the person who changed Jiang Yunhao's face after hearing it, could be someone who could not be easily bullied.

He just didn't expect that she could guess his intentions from a provocative woman and finally resolve the situation.

Always have everything under control.

Such thoughts are terrifying.

"Young Master Ning, you'd better spend more time with the Ning family. Don't regret it until the end. Not everyone can accept the situation, and not everyone can easily settle things down." Su Jingjing advised.

This person is a typical example of love that leads to hatred. Because he fell in love with Wen Li, who was disguised as a man, he finally discovered that Wen Li was a girl and began to take crazy revenge.

It's not much different from having a mental case.

"I can answer your question just now." Wen Li stared at him and said in a calm tone, "I am my own backer, I don't need to rely on anyone."

The expression on Ning Muzhang's face relaxed, which was a sign of ridicule.

This really satirizes him.

"Do you remember what I said last time? If you provoke me again, I will cut off your hands and feet. This time is no exception. I have prepared a big gift for you. Come and have a look." Wen Li chuckled.

"What did you do?"

Ning Muzhang's eyes were alert. Xing Bo, who was behind him, answered the phone and hurriedly spoke in his ear.

After hearing what he said, Ning Muzhang's expression changed drastically, "Did you do it?"

Wen Li looked at the time. Xia Chen's hands and feet were considered fast. In two hours, everything was completed very well.

"This is my first warning and hopefully my last."

Ning Muzhang hurried away with Xing Bo, leaving Su Jingjing and Wen Li behind.

When the latter saw his panic, she couldn't help but feel a little pleased.

"Where are we going now? Do we need to pick up Xia Chen?"

As soon as Su Jingjing finished asking this question, she saw a car parked not far away. Feiran stood beside the car and looked directly at the two of them.

Okay, this has to be picked up again.

In the hall, after such an incident, most of the guests also went back, and the remaining young people were dismissed by Li Li.

She had a happy birthday today, but she also had an unhappy one.

"Second uncle, where is my grandma?" Li Li walked to Li Yuanzhi who was seeing off the guests and asked.

Li Yuanzhi turned to look at her, "Your grandma is not feeling well and is still upstairs. You go and talk with her. It's too late today and we all will stay here. We'll go back tomorrow."

Li Li nodded and turned to go upstairs.

The assistant looked at Li Li and said, "Sir, should we investigate Mu Wen Li carefully?"

There must be a lot of secrets about this person. Just based on her performance today and her tense aura when talking to Ning Muzhang, she is definitely not an ordinary girl.

"It must be investigated, but I'm even more curious about something." Li Yuanzhi said.

Li Langhua's expression suddenly changed when she saw Wen Li. He could clearly see this. The usually steady old lady had controlled the Li family for so many years and had never seen any big storms.

But when she saw this little girl, Mu Wen Li, her face turned so ugly, there must be something wrong with it.

Not to mention that the Mu family is also involved in other matters, which must be investigated clearly.

"I have a bad feeling." Li Yuanzhi said.

This girl seems to have many secrets.

In the room on the second floor, Li Ruobing was squatting on the ground giving the old lady an acupuncture. Her blood pressure had suddenly gone up. Ruiqiu had no choice but to go down and find Li Ruobing.

After all, Li Ruobing has always been taking care of the old lady's body, and she is the most familiar with many situations.

"Miss, how is it?" Ruiqiu asked next to her.

Li Ruobing wiped her hands with the wet handkerchief and stood up, "It's not a big problem, but what happened to grandma? Why did her blood pressure suddenly go up?"

Rachel looked at Li Langhua with a smile on her face, "The old lady was just nostalgic. She suddenly thought of something and couldn't figure it out."

Li Ruobing looked at her grandma and said in a soft tone, "Grandma, have a good rest. Don't think about the past. After all, it is the past. It's not good for you to always worry about it."

Li Langhua held her granddaughter's hand and smiled, "It's nothing. I just suddenly thought of a few old friends today, and I was sentimental for a moment. By the way, have all the outside matters been resolved?"

"It's been taken care of, don't worry."

Li Langhua looked at Li Ruobing and spoke with concern in his usual tone, "I have met the girl that you and Li Li both praised, but it's a pity that I couldn't speak to her."

Knowing that she was talking about Wen Li, Li Ruobing comforted the old lady, "Wen Li is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. Anyway, she is in the Imperial Capital, and there will be many opportunities to meet her in the future. If you really want to meet her, the traditional medicine competition officially starts tomorrow. If I ran into her and I'll invite her to the house for a meal. 

Li Langhua caught the key information in her words and sat up straight, "She is also a pharmacist?"

"Yeah, I mentioned it last time, didn't I?"

"Have Li Li ever mentioned where Wen Li is from and where she was born and raised?" There was something wrong with the question Li Langhua asked.

Li Ruobing shook her head, "No."

She doesn't know if it's her imagination, but grandma seems to be very concerned about this Wen Li.

When Li Li rushed in, the needles on Li Langhua's body had just been pulled out. She rushed over and sat next to her grandma, pestering Li Langhua to talk for a while.

"Do you like Wen Li very much?" Li Langhua looked at her granddaughter and asked.

Li Li nodded, "Yes, I like her very much."

When she stayed with Wen Li, she felt very at ease.

Li Langhua's eyes darkened and she said nothing more.

.........

The eastern port of the imperial capital city.

Within the area belonging to the Ning family, the entire port was ablaze, and the fire and smoke formed a continuous cloud. When Ning Muzhang got out of the car, the port was already in chaos.

People running back and forth were trying to put out the fire. The footsteps were chaotic, echoing the sound of water flowing and the sound of wood exploding. Xing Bo grabbed the people running by and held them in front of him.

"What's going on?!"

The man's face was blackened by the fire, and he responded breathlessly, "It exploded with a bang! All the goods were burned!"

Ning Muzhang grabbed the person by the collar and dragged him over, "What did you say? All burned?!"

"What about the goods traded with Mr. Max?"

"It's all in there!" The man pointed at the burning warehouse.

All the goods traded tonight are here. The original plan was for Ning Muzhang to take a cruise to trade at sea after returning from the dinner.

As a result, everything was burned down.

"Get out!" Ning Muzhang threw the person out.

Leaving aside the loss of the goods, the reputation of the Ning family is the most important. This batch of goods is the latest. It takes at least half a day to transfer the goods from other places, and it will definitely not be delivered in two hours.

"Master, what should we do now?" Xing Bo also scratched his head at the difficult situation.

The fire burned right away without any warning.

"First stabilize Max and put out the fire. Don't reveal the news to the two foreigners." Ning Muzhang said.

No matter what, the reputation of the Ning family cannot be damaged at all. If Ning Yeqing knew about it, it would be even more difficult to deal with it.

Amidst the noisy fire fighting, all fire hydrants were connected to water pipes to spray out the fire. The water fell on the building and evaporated, making a sizzling sound.

This is the territory of the Ning family. No matter how big the fire is, the rescue team from the imperial capital has no right to come in without the permission of the Ning family.

"Master." Xing Bo called.

Ning Muzhang, who was already furious, ignored him, so Xing Bo stretched out his hand and tugged at his clothes.

He cast his gaze on Xing Bo, then followed his eyes and saw the man standing not far away.

Ning Yeqing came over aggressively and slapped Ning Muzhang as soon as he got in front of him.

There was a clear sound. Ning Muzhang turned his face away and licked the blood from the corner of his mouth with his tongue. The taste of rust filled his mouth.

"Useless thing." Ning Yeqing cursed.

From Ning Muzhang's perspective, he could see the disheveled woman standing next to the car, with a clear sarcastic smile on his lips.

"There are still two hours for delivery, how are you going to solve this dilemma! Let me tell you, if the Ning family's reputation is damaged this time, I can't spare you!" Ning Yeqing said sternly.

Xing Bo didn't dare to dissuade him. The entire Ning family knew Ning Yeqing's character. The matter was left in the hands of the young master. No matter what the process was, as long as the result was achieved, if the result was unfavorable, the young master was incompetent.

"The young master's matter is one thing. Come again this time, do you think you are the only heir to our Ning family?" Ning Yeqing pointed at his nose and scolded him.

"Go back when you're angry. There are so many people coming and going here, and it might hurt your new love." Ning Muzhang didn't mind at all, and didn't feel any sadness at all because of Ning Yeqing's words.

"I'm warning you, if it happens again, it won't be as simple as the family law!"

Ning Muzhang straightened his face, wiped away the blood on the corner of his mouth with his fingertips, and chuckled, "It doesn't make any sense even if you try to beat me to death now. After I solve this problem, it won't be too late for you to make a noise. Besides, you won't be of much help here."

Ning Yeqing looked at the warehouse opposite where the fire was now under control, his face became colder and gloomier, "If you can't handle it well, just kneel down."

The fire was finally brought under control, but everything inside was burned.

"Master, what should we do now?"

Billions of goods were burned like this all at once.

Moreover, this is the latest mechanical gun designed by God K this year. Only the Ning family has won this style. No matter where it is, it cannot be found, and it is impossible to have the supply to dispatch it.

If we speed up mass production, it will take at least half a month. During this period, the Ning family's credibility will be ruined.

"Bang!" Ning Muzhang kicked the blackened object.

His eyes were red, "This time she really made a show..."

Xing Bo was the one who heard the conversation between Wen Li and Ning Muzhang clearly from beginning to end, and of course he also knew who set the fire.

She was really fearless. In Wen Li's eyes, she dared to take action not because there was anyone behind her to support her.

She herself was so confident and fearless that he would not think that this warehouse was just randomly picked by Wen Li to burn.

Before taking action, she must have known the importance of this batch of goods to the Ning family. She lit the fire two hours before the transaction and accurately found the warehouse where the goods were stored in the huge dock port.

And the Master knew so quickly and arrived so quickly.

This is no ordinary person.

The young master really hit the wall this time.
