Chapter 122 - Complicated Wang Juan
Chapter 122 Complicated Wang Juan
Ding Ning looked deeply at Mu Yanran without saying anything at all. But, Mu Yanran’s eyes were guilty and she avoided his sight to hide a guilty conscience.
Niu Xiaoniu had a simple character and did not think too much. But, how could Ding Ning not understand her intention?
After all, Mu Yanran was still sticking up for Wang Juan. She eagerly drove Qiang Zi and others away, just in case.
Even if Wang Juan did not come to an arrangement with Qian Yongjin’s family and they would like to rake up the past with Wang Cheng, without Qiang Zi and others, there would be no strong witnesses. Promoting Niu Xiaoniu would be another kind of compensation.
This woman, should he say that she was stupid, or that she had too much goodness? “Would a woman like Wang Juan feel grateful to you? If you could come to an arrangement with her, and Wang Juan denied the arrangement, how would Qian Yongjin and his family live?”
Ding Ning shook his head and sighed, he did not understand how such a clever woman would make this unwise move.
“Captain Niu, now the security guards are not enough. You are also responsible for recruiting another group. Well done. Go to work!”
Mu Yanran gently said to Niu Xiaoniu and this gentle attitude let Xiaoniu feel extremely flattered. He scratched the back side of his head and giggled as he went to work happily.
But, before he left, he remembered to exchange contact information with Ding Ning. He was not too stupid.
“You want to ask me why?” Mu Yanran calmly looked at Ding Ning.
Ding Ning shrugged his shoulders, “I was going to ask. But, now, suddenly, I don’t want to ask anymore.”
“Why?” Mu Yanran was a little puzzled.
“You naturally have your reasons for doing this. If you are willing to tell me, you will naturally say and if you are not willing to tell me, it is useless to ask.”
“Forget it. I was going to tell you and suddenly, I don’t want to say it anymore.”
Ding Ning was not curious and really didn’t ask. That made Mu Yanran have a kind of depression that was hard on the cotton.
Ding Ning suddenly asked, “After you went to see your General Manager Sun, what is the result of your talk?”
Mu Yanran smiled wryly, with a helpless face, “Sometimes I really don’t know what kind of person you are. As you expected, he is willing to sign you, but he does not agree that you freely arrange your time and wants to talk to you personally. I had a terrible quarrel with him and he is still not willing to compromise. I can only ask you to convince him.”
Ding Ning oddly looked at her, “I persuade him? Who is he?”
Mu Yanran’s face was dumbfounded and she said with some shame, “He is my superior. Don’t you want to be a jade carving master?”
“He is your superior, but not mine.”
Ding Ning stared at her aggressively and said with a very serious look, “Sister, you need to remember. I promised you the conditions to be the jade carving master because of you, but not because of General Manager Sun, General Manager Wang or whoever. In my eyes, they are no better than shit. People who can make me compromise, are only those I care about.”
“You…”
Mu Yanran’s heart was in a panic and she was so overwhelmed that she avoided his sight. After a long time, she nerved herself and bravely looked at him, “Do you want to pursue me?”
Ding Ning heard that and was dumbfounded. Beyond his expectation, Mu Yanran, who always deliberately avoided this question, took the initiative to ask and left him unprepared. For a moment, he did not know how to answer it.
Mu Yanran’s lips coldly drew a radian and she flatly said, “Ding Ning, I am a very dangerous person. For your life, you’d better keep away from me. I originally wanted to sign you, but now we cannot come to an arrangement. So, just let it be. I’m sorry you made the trip for nothing. Goodbye, oh, and never see you again.”
After that, she turned away and resolutely left. Ding Ning watched her back as she left and felt lost. He couldn’t say he was upset and he couldn’t say he was regretful. There was just a strange emotion spreading in his heart.
Although he wanted to conquer this proud woman, he did not have any further thoughts. Just his desire to conquer was making trouble. Just taking liberties with her, occasionally dating, having a heart-to-heart talk and being his confidante satisfied him.
However, when Mu Yanran had put the problem directly on the table, he didn’t know how to answer. Saying that he was chasing her? How could he let Ling Yun down?
Shen Muqing and Xiao Nuo had been agonizing him, and somehow he provoked another woman. He must be addled.
Until now, Ding Ning hadn’t realized that he was a fucking playboy in his heart. He couldn’t even figure out who he liked.
Saying that he did not like Ling Yun would be a lie. Saying that he liked her did not give full expression to his view. But, when he saw other girls who excited him, he still could not help but want to get close.
His feelings towards Shen Muqing and Xiao Nuo were the same. It was impossible to say that he did not like them. But saying that he liked them, he always felt that it seemed something was missing.
When Mu Yanran didn’t make it clear, he was always itching to stay with her, like a cat scratching his heart. But, once she made it clear, he was decidedly cowardly.
Responsibility and obligation had become a gap that could not be crossed between them.
Even if he and Ling Yun had the reality of husband and wife, his heart would still not remain. After all, he was engaged by his father, although he always felt that was an illusory thing.
However, he was raised by his father from childhood. He had a sense of reverence to his taciturn father in his heart. He did not have the courage to fight against such an arrangement.
He was distracted, Ding Ning agonizingly shook his head. Whatever. Things would eventually sort themselves out. He would just think about it later.
He subconsciously shouted at the back of Mu Yanran who was already far away, “Even if you are a wild rose, I will pull out your thorns and let the pistil inside show.”
Listening to this almost provocative shout, Mu Yanran’s figure paused and suddenly her steps quickened. There was a feeling of her fleeing in a hurry.
Ding Ning laughed in an unbridled way. He just felt happy and refreshed and his troubles were all gone.
He hummed a tune and turned away shaking his head. When he passed the security guard’s booth, he made an appointment with Xiaoniu to go to the hospital tomorrow to visit Qian Yongjin. Then, he left.
In the deputy general manager’s office on the sixth floor, Mu Yanran stood by the window and looked at the Land Rover which was leaving and driving away. The corners of her mouth went up and showed slight helplessness and she sighed faintly.
“I hope you will shrink back from difficulties. Don’t be overconfident. Anyway, I have already reminded you, don’t blame me when something happens.”
Forcing herself to stop thinking about the troubles brought on by Ding Ning, she remembered that General Manager Sun had just told her that in two days, a vice president from the head office would review the work of Ninghai Filiale and she was responsible for the reception of him, that made her agitated without rhyme or reason.
It could be judged from General Manager Sun’s ugly face and his excuse that he was in poor health and had to rest a few days was to avoid meeting the one who was going to review him and was the vice president who successfully domineered him.
This vice president obviously had ill intentions. General Manager Sun gave this awful mess to her, which really agonized her.
“Hey, be gentler. Sister, are you really gonna drive me back to the countryside?”
In the hospital, Wang Cheng, who had just completed nasal bone restoration surgery, looked at Wang Juan pathetically.
“Look at yourself, what have you done? Go back to your hometown in the countryside in two days!”
Wang Juan was exasperated, disappointed, and just stared at him.
“I won’t go back. There is nothing except for a shabby house in my hometown. There isn’t even a piece of land. What will I eat and drink after I go back? You drive me back if you just want to starve me. Before our parents died, they asked you to take care of me. How can you leave me alone?”
Wang Cheng knew that their parents were his older sister’s weak spot and immediately whined like a rogue.
“Chengcheng, it is not that I don’t care about you. This is to save you, do you understand? Take this bank card, there is 50,000 Yuan on it. The PIN is your birthday, you just go back to the countryside to stay out of trouble. After I deal with Qian Yongjin, you can come back then and I will arrange other work to you. Otherwise, you will be sued.”
Wang Juan said this with patience and took out a bank card and handed it to him. Even if her younger brother did not make a good showing, he was still her only younger brother.
“Thank you, sister!” As soon as Wang Cheng heard there was money for him, he did not make any more noise and happily took the bank card. His eyes turned around. He was not that obedient, why would he go back to the countryside when he had money? Wouldn’t he go wherever he could be unrestrained? And, also, that Niu Xiaoniu was very powerful and he could not punish him for the moment. But, the guy who had prevented him, he would not let him go. “Thank you, sister!” As soon as Wang Cheng heard there was money for him, he did not make any more noise and happily took the bank card.

“Chengcheng, you are not young anymore, you should bring your mind back. This can be counted as a lesson. After this is calmed, I will arrange other work for you. You can’t make trouble anymore. After you settle down, you should find a girl quickly and get married to start your career and have babies for our Wangs’ so that I won’t let our deceased parents down.”
Wang Juan persuaded in earnest. Wang Cheng always nodded obediently, but he was actually just absent-minded. The words went in one ear and out the other. His mind had already wandered.
He was thinking about finding two girls that night to release his sexual desire and get rid of bad luck. Then he was gonna contact his former bad friends to punish the guy named Ding Ning.
Wang Juan sighed. How could she not know that she was talking for nothing? This younger brother, who caused troubles, couldn’t listen to her, and she had a strong sense of powerlessness in her heart.
After she warned Wang Cheng to take a good rest, Wang Juan went out of the ward, took out her cellphone, and found a phone number labeled “cousin”.
She wanted to press the dial key for a few times, but hesitated for a long time and still didn’t press it. She faintly sighed and went to put the cellphone away.
“Ring!”
The phone ringing starttled her. When she saw the caller ID, her face became very complicated, and the caller was her cousin.
The bell rang for a long time, then Wang Juan bit her lower lip and picked up the phone, her voice became extremely cold, “Hello, what’s going on?”
“Little Juan, why did it take you so long to pick up the phone? I will go to Ninghai to inspect the work of Filiale in two days. I will arrive one day earlier than scheduled. We will be able to meet soon. Are you happy?”
A mellow man’s voice came from the other end of the phone.
“I know. Contact me once you arrive.”
After she indifferently hung up the phone, Wang Juan covered her mouth. Her body leaned weakly against the wall and slowly slid down. She silently sobbed, letting the tears flow and wet her shirt collar.
This man, who was loved and hated by her, was her childhood sweetheart cousin from the same village. He took her chastity when she was sixteen years old and she stupidly thought that she could live to old age with him, together.
But, after all, he still betrayed their love. He was social climbing and went to Yuezhou to marry into and live with his bride’s rich and powerful family.
The saddest thing was that he had succeeded in riding into the upper class, but he did not let her, his first love, go. He had been keeping her as a mistress for a long time and did not allow her to marry.
She hated it. There were countless times she was determined to stay away from this man. But, after all, she couldn’t resist the torment of the cruelty of life and his sweet words. Especially with a younger brother who caused trouble all day long so that she had to humiliatingly lie under this man again and again and tried to cater to him.
Did she still love him? Even she didn’t know, maybe she still loved him. Otherwise, he would not always be the first person she wanted to call when she was in her most lonely and helpless time. Even though she never really called him. After all, he was a married man and it was not convenient to pick up his phone. She could only wait for him to take the initiative to contact her.
Countless times she had midnight dreams and she always woke up crying from her sleep. In her dreams, she killed him personally, becoming covered with his blood and crying in grief on top of his corpse.
