"Pour me a glass of red wine." Li Zhenting suddenly said.
"Me?" Shen Ning stopped and looked at her in confusion.
"Is it not possible?" Li Zhenting raised his eyebrows. "I was the one who gave you the medicine bag and took care of you last night."
"Oh, okay, okay, I'll go right away." Shen Ning understood and immediately nodded like pounding garlic.
If doing this for him could make up for the two times he took care of her when she was sick, she would certainly be happy to do it.
"Mr. Li, please." She quickly went to the freezer to pour a glass of ice red wine and handed it to him respectfully with both hands.
Li Zhenting took a sip, shaking the red wine glass with his slender fingers, and asked, "Is the exhibition going well today?"
"It's okay." Shen Ning smiled slightly. This is not just okay, it's absolutely great.
Li Zhenting took a few steps with his wine glass in hand and asked casually, "I heard that you signed a contract with Jing Group for long-term cooperation."
“Yes, Jing Group is a spice tycoon, and Gucci is in the perfume business. They need each other, and the combination of the two is a perfect combination.” Shen Ning did not hide it.
When her mother was alive, she wanted to cooperate with the Jing family, but for some reason she didn't succeed. It was a good thing that she succeeded.
A very thin glint of coldness flashed across Li Zhenting's eyes, but his expression was indifferent.
"I wish you all the best." He said lightly and walked towards the bathroom.
Shen Ning turned and walked outside.
But before he took a few steps, his cell phone suddenly rang.
She looked at it and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. After hesitating for a moment, she still picked up the phone. After all, she received a lot of calls from businesses these days.
"Chen Ning, if you want your daughter to live, you have to exchange Sleeping Beauty with me." A cold and sharp female voice rang out on the phone, piercing her eardrums and causing pain.
Shen Ning froze in place as if he had been electrocuted.
"If I don't see Sleeping Beauty within an hour, all you'll have to see is your daughter's tiny corpse." The woman added in an even more sinister tone before hanging up the phone.
It wasn't until the sound of the phone being hung up did Shen Ning come to his senses and began to call the number back like crazy.
The number finally connected, but no one spoke on the other end.
"Wu Lili, what have you done to my daughter? If anything happens to her, I will kill you." She shouted angrily, and her desperate voice spread throughout the hall like a dark cloud.
She knew Wu Lili must be listening over there!
After a long time, a woman's gloomy and terrifying laughter was heard from the other side:
"Chen Ning, if you delay any longer, you will be killing your daughter. You have left me with nothing, and I will drag someone down with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of beating.
"It hurts, bad woman, please don't hit me." A small cry of fear followed, "Mommy... come and save me... I'm so scared."
"Wu Lili, stop it." Shen Ning was heartbroken and shouted angrily, while comforting Xiao Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, my dear daughter, don't be afraid, Mommy will come to save you soon, you must wait for Mommy to come."
"Mommy..." Xiaoxiao cried even louder when she heard her mommy's voice. When Shen Ning wanted to comfort her, the phone was suddenly hung up.
Shen Ning immediately ran outside as if his heart had been ripped out.
But as she ran, she suddenly remembered something and ran back desperately.
Sleeping Beauty is still in the Li Castle, but she hasn't got it yet, which means it is still in Li Zhenting's hands.
"Mommy, what happened to Xiaoxiao?" Shen Ning just ran back and saw Keke running in and asked loudly.
"Xiaoxiao, it's okay. Go eat first. Mommy has something to go back for." Shen Ning didn't want Keke to worry after knowing it, so she shook her head and ran upstairs.
