Jiang Luoning stood in the middle of the basement, looking at the man who was barely breathing on the ground.
"Are you in love with me? Want to cling to the rich and powerful? To rise to prominence and become a phoenix? Ha... Is that what you're thinking? Or does your Dong family have a bigger plan?" Fu Linxiao's eyes flickered with surprise when she heard Jiang Luoning's words. She hadn't expected the little girl to reveal her motive so easily. But the man before her didn't react at all. And rightly so. He was a secret guard, after all, trained from a young age.
Jiang Luoning ignored the man on the ground, nor did he look at the surprised people in the room. He turned and left, took out his cell phone and called someone.
"Boss, you finally remembered me. You seemed to have disappeared after you returned to the capital, and I couldn't contact you! If you don't send me any more news, Axing and I will come to kill you..." A woman's incessant complaining voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Shut up," Jiang Luoning said coldly, ignoring Su Yu's complaints. "How are you and Ah Xing preparing for the relocation of the headquarters?"
"Everything is ready, don't worry. I have no problem here, but there seems to be a problem with Ah Xing."
"I understand. I'll contact Axing." Before Su Yu could reply, Jiang Luoning hung up the phone.
On the other side, Su Yu, who was sitting in the president's office of AX Group, saw that the screen of his mobile phone had gone black, sighed helplessly, picked up the documents on the table resignedly, and worked honestly as a worker.
Jiang Luoning tapped on his phone, and then a young man with a sad face appeared on the screen.
"Sister Ning, you're still alive! I thought you didn't want me anymore." Ah Xing's voice rang out in complaint. Jiang Luoning frowned slightly. Ah Xing saw the change in Jiang Luoning's expression on the phone and immediately changed her state. "Sister Ning, after you issued the order to move the headquarters, several Pavilion Masters have been opposed to it. Now they are all looking for you to explain, and I noticed that they have been in contact with people from Wuying Hall."
Fu Linxiao, who was standing by, was shocked for a moment. Then he stared at the little girl in front of him with burning eyes. Jiang Luoning felt the gaze behind him and remembered that there were two living people behind him. Naturally, he had heard the conversation between him and Ah Xing. Then he hung up the phone in a hurry and looked at Fu Linxiao with an expression ready to die. Fu Linxiao looked at her, shook his head slightly, sighed, and smiled slowly, "Let's talk, Ning'er."
Pretending to be calm, Jiang Luoning nodded and followed Fu Linxiao resignedly, wondering how she would argue later. No, how she would explain her relationship with Anye. She wondered how much of her conversation with Su Yu Fu Linxiao had heard. Could it be that her two identities were gone? No, she couldn't do that. She still had to maintain the image of the sweet and sweet girl who called Linxiao "Brother"! What should she do? Should she knock Fu Linxiao out and run away? No! There was also a confused follower named Lin Ming behind them. She didn't know where Lin Cong was and if he could come and take Lin Ming away.
"Ouch" Jiang Luoning didn't come to her senses until her head hit something hard and she felt a slight pain. She had followed Fu Linxiao to a study. Fu Linxiao had stopped in front of her, and Jiang Luoning was followed by the annoying Lin Ming!
Jiang Luoning was so embarrassed that he could only lower his head and look at his toes, tapping them lightly on the floor.
"Ning'er? Aren't you going to tell me some little secrets?"
"Um, that brother Lin Xiao, are you from Wuyingtang?"
Lin Ming, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but laugh when he heard Jiang Luoning's words. He asked Ying, the leader of the Wuying Hall, if he was from the Wuying Hall. This Miss Jiang really had an amazing train of thought.
“Yes, I am the hall master.”
"Damn it, you're Ying! You're the one who ordered the plundering of An Ye's herbs?" Hearing Fu Linxiao call him Ying, a surge of rage washed over her. She remembered how the Shadowless Hall's men had robbed An Ye of a batch of her herbs in Lincheng a few months ago. While they weren't precious, Jiang Luoning, the undefeated leader of An Ye, couldn't swallow this humiliation. Adding to that, she'd just heard Ah Xing say one of her men had been in contact with the Shadowless Hall's men, and she was furious, unleashing a barrage of curses. Only then did she react and immediately turned around to cover her mouth. But then she saw her follower, Lin Ming, his eyes wide open, and was left speechless.
"Well, it was an accident. I found out after my men robbed it." Lin Ming looked at the boss who lied calmly in front of him, and Miss Jiang who was so angry that she could tear him to pieces. He immediately realized that he couldn't afford to offend either of them, so he had to take the blame.
"Yes, yes, yes, Miss Jiang, it was the subordinates who acted on their own initiative. The hall master has already made them accept the punishment. As for the medicinal materials, they will be sent back to the Dark Night Pavilion soon."
Hearing that they were going to send the herbs back, Jiang Luoning walked to the sofa and sat down, looking at the two people in front of him without saying a word.
Fu Linxiao raised his hand and motioned Lin Ming to go out.
"Dark Pavilion, N, Ning'er, you really haven't been idle while you're abroad?"
"Fu Linxiao, I made up my mind the moment I decided to go abroad. I don't want to, and I can't, live under your wings forever. You worry about me, afraid that I'll get hurt or wronged, but you can't be by our side all the time. The kidnapping six years ago, the swimming pool incident a few days ago, I'm not blaming anyone for not protecting me. I just feel that I should stand at the same level with you and move forward side by side, instead of becoming the enemy's weak point behind you."
Fu Linxiao did not speak for a long time after hearing Jiang Luoning's words, and just kept looking at the person in front of him. Yes, since the kidnapping, every time he went abroad to see her, he had noticed the changes in this little girl, but who would have thought that an organization that suddenly emerged four years ago - the Dark Pavilion, was founded by the little girl who followed him. He didn't want to think about how much this soft and sticky little girl had experienced to get to where she is today.
