Chapter Summary
She hadn't been invited to greet him; if she had, the whole family would have been exposed to the media, making it impossible for them to do anything in the future. If she were exposed to the media, everything she did would be labeled as Liu Ning's, which was the last thing she wanted. If something like this happens again, it could really kill us.” Everything Zhang Jing said was the truth.
When Liu Ning appeared in front of Zhang Jing, the girl was quite startled. She hadn't been invited to greet him; if she had, the whole family would have been exposed to the media, making it impossible for them to do anything in the future. So Liu Ning chose to come back alone. Zhang Jing also didn't want to be exposed to the media; she wanted to focus on her business. She always wanted to rely on her own abilities. If she were exposed to the media, everything she did would be labeled as Liu Ning's, which was the last thing she wanted. Fortunately, she was quite capable. Under these circumstances, wasn't it a good thing for Zhang Jing to live according to her own wishes?
Upon seeing Liu Ning appear before her, her first reaction was surprise, followed by something else entirely. She burst into tears and threw herself into Liu Ning's arms. Those outside were bewildered, as Liu Ning had entered through the window. This place was on the 23rd floor; to be able to come up from the ground floor in one go required astonishing strength. Many people tried to rush in, but Zhang Jing's secretary quickly chased them away. She had already heard Liu Ning's voice. If they suddenly rushed in, wouldn't they witness what was happening between the couple? If they saw something unpleasant, the consequences could be dire. So, they should all stay put, or something terrible might happen.
“You can’t be away from us for too long anymore. Do you know how we’ve been these past two days? We’ve been terrified. We’ve written down every single piece of news about ancient ruins. The situation there is so dangerous. Do you think we weren’t scared? But we had no other choice. If I hadn’t, I would have brought you back long ago. This must never happen again. You should experience this feeling yourself. If you can handle it, we won’t care about you. Mom hasn’t slept either these past two days. I can hear her sighing every night. If something like this happens again, it could really kill us.”
Everything Zhang Jing said was the truth. It's unclear how she managed to get through those days. If everything could be resolved, that would be wonderful. But it's already incredibly difficult for a woman to survive in society. If everything could be solved, what would be the point of having a man? Especially when her man's fate is uncertain. These days, everyone is watching what Zhang Jing is doing because they want to marry their daughter to Liu Ning, so they have to wait for Zhang Jing. If Zhao Jing makes a mistake, it will be a great relief to them. They'll seize on that weakness and never let it go. As for the final outcome, that's beyond their imagination; everyone understands what to do.
"Don't worry about this time. It doesn't matter what happens in the future. If you can do better, you can figure out the rest yourself. As for how it will turn out, I don't think it's a good thing. In this situation, it's actually quite good. You can expand however you want. Anyway, you won't have to worry about other people's opinions anymore. Your husband is definitely strong now. If anyone tries to bully you, you can teach them a lesson anytime. We used to have to be patient, but we don't need to be now. No matter what they're thinking, just do what you want from now on. If they feel uncomfortable, then let them come and talk to me."
Liu Ning spoke with great arrogance. To be honest, he had never spoken like this before. Liu Ning's sudden change in tone made Zhang Jing feel like she had mistaken him for someone else. In the past, Liu Ning was always low-key, only becoming high-profile when others bullied them. He would never actively bully others. This time, she didn't know what was going on. Zhang Jing felt something was off about Liu Ning's behavior. What was happening? He had never acted like this before. It seemed her husband had gained a lot this time. If he hadn't gained enough, he would never have dared to say such things. She knew Liu Ning's character very well.
Liu Ning certainly has the right to speak like this now, because he's now on the Second Speaker's side and is the third most powerful person in the city. Aside from a select few, no one seems to care about Liu Ning. Would Zhao Wudi go against Liu Ning? Would Old Master Wang go against Liu Ning? Of course not. Zhao Wudi is very clear that his strength is no match for Liu Ning's. If Liu Ning were to become truly powerful, he could defeat him at any time. Therefore, he would never do such a thing unless he's completely out of his mind. He's absolutely certain of this; if he were old and blind, that would be truly unbelievable.
As for Old Master Wang, it's even less likely. There are countless grudges between Liu Ning and Old Master Wang, not to mention the issues with Wang Fang and Wang Jun. How could they possibly become enemies? Even if there are misunderstandings, they would be easily resolved; no one doubts that. Therefore, in this city, anyone who wants to mess with Liu Ning is likely to suffer a great loss. The current Liu Ning is not the same as before, and he's far beyond their control. If they suffer a loss, they can only blame their bad luck. Regardless of their intentions, even if they want to resolve the matter, they need to consider whether they have the ability. If they don't, they should try to avoid provoking Liu Ning.
