Chapter 284 Do you think it is safe to walk at night?
She was worried about Mingzhuo, "That person is so powerful, he must be in a high position in Xuanmen, how can we ordinary people fight against him? Zhuozhuo, mom doesn't want you to get close to Xuanmen, because she is afraid of being targeted by that person."
After so many years, their family doesn't even know what the enemy looks like, how to fight?
"No, mom has seen him before." Mingzhuo said.
Ruan Mingying: "???"
Mingzhuo didn't know how to explain, "I saw that person in mom's memory, but he was very cautious. He was afraid of revealing his identity, so he tampered with this memory, but I sealed this memory."
Ruan Mingying: "???"
The more she talked, the more she didn't understand.
"Since you've seen it, you should remember it, right?" Ruan Mingxuan asked.
Mingzhuo shook her head. Her soul fell asleep for a while, but she soon said, "It's okay. When mom comes back, I will retrieve this memory."
Ruan Mingying hesitated for a moment: "If there is danger, then don't go and see it."
Nothing is more important than the safety of her sister and mother.
Mingzhuo said: "There will be no danger. If we really have to face each other, I will be the only one who wins."

Ruan Mulan glanced at the sky outside.
The rain did not stop, and there was even a faint trend of getting heavier.
The assistant who was scouting the road ahead turned back and said to the man in the back seat, "Mr. Li, it's not safe! The river water is rising, and the bridge ahead is flooded!"
Driving on a rainy night is not safe, let alone a flash flood. The river water rises very quickly, and crossing the bridge rashly may be washed away by the rapids.
Li Xun glanced at Ruan Mulan hesitantly and said to the assistant, "Go down and ask the locals if there are other ways; if it doesn't work, you can only find a place to rest for a night and see if the flood will recede tomorrow."
There were seven or eight business travelers on this trip, driving two commercial vehicles.
They were still attending the opening ceremony of the processing plant this morning, and in the afternoon they went to a mountain village to check a local small yellow ginger.
It is said that this is the main raw material for the new products developed this year, and it is necessary to sign an order with the local villagers in advance to ensure smooth delivery.
Unexpectedly, when returning, there was a heavy rainstorm, a flash flood, and they were completely trapped in this unfamiliar small village.
After Li Xun and others left, he said to Ruan Mulan, "Mr. Ruan, don't be too anxious. You can go home after the flood recedes tomorrow."
If those employees saw this scene, their jaws would probably drop to the ground in shock.
In their eyes, the highly educated and highly qualified elite returned overseas boss would actually treat a middle-aged woman so respectfully.
Back in the Free State, Li Xun's company went bankrupt, and he was ready to jump off the building when he was desperate. It was Ruan Mulan who saved him and gave him a job.
Li Xun has worked with Ruan Mulan for more than ten years, and he deeply understands that this middle-aged woman who is illiterate in the eyes of others is actually very business-minded.
She is smart and open-minded, so she can do business all over the Free State while hiding behind the scenes.
However, the other party is not convenient to show up for some reasons, so in the eyes of outsiders, the boss of the company is a foreigner.
And he is the company's partner and second largest shareholder.
Ruan Mulan was about to get off the car, and Li Xun hurriedly said, "No, no, no, be careful of getting your shoes wet." "
It's okay, you don't have to worry about me." Ruan Mulan got off the car with an umbrella. She was dressed simply and was old, but it can still be seen that she was a great beauty when she was young.
Time never defeats beauty. Under the influence of wind and frost, she is instead condensed with a gentle and peaceful power.
She took the initiative to walk to a nearby house and talked to the host in the local language.
The hostess of that house, hearing her fluent dialect, immediately let down her guard.
Ruan Mulan soon found out that this was Lujia Village. If you want to cross the river, there is a bridge upstream. You can go there to try your luck.
"Call everyone back and go upstream." Ruan Mulan said.
A group of people were called back and complained that it was already dark and they were still rushing.
It would be better to rest here for a night and wait until tomorrow morning when the flood will recede and it will be safer.
Ruan Mulan glanced at the dam and said firmly: "No, it's not safe here."
According to the local custom in the past, when someone in the family died, the coffin would be parked on the dam and buried a year later.
In recent years, the government has vigorously rectified burials and promoted cremation. There was only lush grass on the dam, but no trace of coffins.
But under the heavy rain, she vaguely saw the ashes of burnt incense on the ground, indicating that people often come here to pay tribute to the dead.
The woman just now also said that in the past, both sides of this dam were piled with coffins, and when walking at night, you could see green ghost lights.
These few days are Qingming Festival. Ruan Mulan always feels uneasy when she thinks of a nightmare she once experienced.
It's as if something bad is going to happen, and she must leave this dam as soon as possible.
As long as you cross the river, you can get on the national road, and then on the highway, and you will be safe.
Wang Xiaojian felt puzzled. Who does this old lady think she is? Why does she give orders to a group of elites like them?
"Boss Li, do you think it's safe to walk at night? And it's raining so hard, are you going to die?" He turned to look at Li Xun.
After all, he was an elite talent recruited by the company with a lot of money, why should he obey the orders of a rural woman.
Li Xun: "Just go if I tell you to go, don't talk so much nonsense."
After a pause, he said, "If you don't want to go, you can stay for one night and leave tomorrow."
Wang Xiao: "..."
Seeing that Li Xun didn't buy it, Wang Xiao got into the car dejectedly and didn't say anything else.
But in his heart, he was thinking, has Li Xun been abroad for too long and is not clear about the situation in China? He wants to please the Xu Group, so he is desperately flattering a rural woman.
What a pity, it's all in vain.
Wang Xiao is close to the circle of wealthy families in Yunwu City, so he naturally knows some of the secrets of the wealthy.
Rumor has it that Xu Shanglou, the eldest son of the Xu Group, married a village girl for her beauty.
Originally, Xu Zhongkai did not approve of this daughter-in-law. He opposed it in every possible way, and even relocated Xu Shanglou to the branch in Yunwu City.
I don’t know what tricks the woman used to make Xu Zhongkai recognize her identity. With
such a powerful daughter, how can the mother be a good person?
The glorious deeds of three daughters and three fathers alone are enough to make people drop their jaws.
I don’t know if she is too lonely because of her age, or she wants to find a sense of existence, but she actually came to their company to be a taster.
In the past six months, she has been running around with the group of people in the R&D department. To put it nicely, it is to develop new products, but in fact, she just follows the team to eat and drink as a free tour. Even this time when the senior executives of their group went on a business trip,
Li Xun brought Ruan Mulan with him. It seems that he wants to squeeze Ruan Mulan into the R&D department.
Wang Xiao was determined to write a letter to his foreign boss and complain about Li Xun.
He was unwilling to work with a rural woman. He believed that this was a great shame for every senior executive.
Wang Xiao did not want to sit with the woman and went to the car behind.
The driver started the car and drove into the night.
