“I’m not listening to you! I’m not listening!” shouted Ning Ziqiang as he was still trying to tough things out.
“You are just trying to escape from reality. It would be best for you to take some time to figure it out. You have already made a lot of mistakes in your life, but this is the mistake that you couldn’t afford to make. Return mother’s and grandfather’s urn to me and I’ll give you the money. You can do whatever you want by then,” said Ning Ran.
After giving him a piece of her mind, Ning Ran left Ning Ziqiang standing there in a daze.
Ning Ran grabbed a few snacks to eat and began to revise her script as soon as she got home.
When the clock struck nine, Ning Ran’s phone began to ring. It was Ning Ziqiang.
“What do you want?!” yelled Ning Ran angrily.
“Little bastard, how dare you sabotage our relationship! I can’t believe he actually attempted to steal from me. Did he think that I was stupid? Fortunately, I have already made precautions for that. Now that he is in my hands, you’ll have to make a choice. Hand over the money to me tomorrow or I’ll reunite your dad with your dead mother!”
Ning Ran was surprised. It never crossed her mind that her words would actually move Ning Ziqiang. But she was more astonished at how cunning Luo Yi was, secretly keeping an eye on Ning Ziqiang.
“That’s none of my business. I have nothing to do with it,” said Ning Ran as she tried to lie with a straight face.
“None of your business? Who do you think you’re lying to? He wouldn’t have betrayed me if it wasn’t for you! Well, it doesn’t matter anyway, I didn’t intend to stay with that trash any longer. Listen, if you don’t bring me the money tomorrow I’ll have everything burnt. Don’t you have any funny ideas or I’ll make sure that you’ll regret it! Remember, your father and the urns are in my hands.”
“Do whatever you want with Ning Ziqiang, that’s none of my concern. It would be even better if you had him killed,” said Ning Ran as she let out a cold laugh.
“You can’t hide it from me. You may be acting tough now, but I know well that you are worried about Ning Ziqiang. No matter how much you hate him, he is still your biological father. Your mother is already dead so I’m sure you wouldn’t be too happy if your father died too, would you? Now, do you think you want to live with your guilt for the rest of your life?” Luo Yi sneered.
Ning Ran couldn’t help but admit that Luo Yi was indeed terrifying.
There had to be a reason for her to be able to come so far, and it wasn’t by chance.
To go after a woman like Luo Yi, it would be wise to be cautious.
“Have him killed then,” said Ning Ran coldly.
“There is no need for you to put up a farce. I know perfectly well that you cared for him.”
“You think I would care just because you said so? How laughable.”
“You are the same as your dead mother, tough on the outside but soft on the inside. If your mother wasn’t such a softie, I wouldn’t be here now. Hahahaha!” responded Luo Yi in kind.
“You shameless b***h! I hope you die a horrible death!”
“Bark as much as you want, I don’t really care. Just remember to hand over the money to me tomorrow.” “Don’t you forget, the urns aren’t the only thing I’m holding hostage… I have your father as well.”
“If you don’t comply, I might have three urns in my hands soon. Figure it out.”
“I’ll remind you once more. Should the Nan family ask you anything about this, it would be in your best interest to not tell them anything.” “Or else…”
Just as Ning Ran wanted to tell her off, she suddenly received a call. It was Qiao Zhan.
After hanging up on Luo Yi, she immediately answered his call.
“Ms. Ding, Sir Chen has ordered me to give you a ride. I’m in front of your house now,” said Qiao Zhan.
“What? Right now?”
“Yes, right now. Sir Chen has something he wants to talk about,” answered Qiao Zhan.
“Fine, give me a few minutes. I’m in the midst of changing my clothes.”
Ning Ran hurriedly put on her clothes and prepared to leave.
