The Ming family ultimately won the bid for Yunyan Peninsula!
Jiang Lirong and Ming Haoyuan exchanged a glance and smiled happily at each other.
The emcee came on stage and offered his congratulations repeatedly.
"Please take a ten-minute break and then proceed to the side rooms for tea, refreshments, and champagne."
After sitting for almost an hour, everyone got up one after another. Some took the opportunity to chat and greet others, while others whispered nervously, discussing how to compete for the ridge.
Ning Lang went to the restroom.
Yuan Heng and Sheng Xuan disliked each other and soon left their seats.
Wearing a mask, Ning Lang calmly walked around the crowd and quickly spotted Lin Huier.
"Ah Lang!" A gentle voice rang out.
Ning Lang stopped and gracefully turned to the side. "Senior Jiang, congratulations."
Jiang Lirong smiled elegantly and handed over a glass of champagne.
"Thank you, so far it's going smoothly."
Ning Lang shook her head and said softly, "I have something to do later and can't drink alcohol. Please give me a glass of juice instead."
Jiang Lirong quickly put down the champagne and gave her a glass of orange juice instead.
At this moment, Ming Haoyuan, who had been looking around in the crowd searching for people, spotted them and quickly walked over.
"Cousin, this must be Miss Ning! It's a pleasure to meet you!"
Ning Lang removed her mask and nodded slightly. "Hello."
Ming Haoyuan saw that her skin was as white as snow, and although her features were not exceptionally beautiful, there was a calm and elegant air of nobility between her brows and eyes. Her temperament and demeanor were perfectly integrated, and he couldn't help but marvel at her in secret.
No wonder she could be so infatuated with my cousin! She's definitely something else!
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Ming Haoyuan asked, "By the way, where's Young Master Yuan? I saw you all together earlier, but I didn't see him."
Jiang Lirong's handsome face darkened slightly, and he secretly gave him a wary look.
Ming Haoyuan pretended not to see it, his eyes darting around.
Ning Lang smiled slightly and said calmly, "He's here."
Yuan Heng quickened his pace, avoiding the crowd, and came to her side.
Ming Haoyuan's eyes immediately lit up, and he stared at him intently.
Yuan Heng ignored him completely and whispered something in Ning Lang's ear.
After listening, Ning Lang calmly nodded to Jiang Lirong and the others, "Excuse me, gentlemen."
After speaking, she turned and quickly left with Yuan Heng.
"Hey!" Ming Haoyuan instinctively tried to follow—but Jiang Lirong grabbed his arm!
Jiang Lirong's face darkened, and he said in a low voice, "Did you ignore what I said earlier?"
“…No.” Ming Haoyuan chuckled apologetically.
Jiang Lirong glanced at him helplessly, then looked for Ning Lang's figure. But the crowd was bustling, and the beauty had already disappeared in some direction.
...
In the corner of the side door, Sheng Xuan was tightly surrounded by several bodyguards in black.
Sheng Yu, standing behind, strutted arrogantly, shaking his thigh triumphantly, and shouted, "Get him out of here!"
Sheng Xuan gave a cold, indifferent twitch at the corner of his mouth, standing steadfastly and motionless.
"Hurry up and do it!" Sheng Yu's fat face trembled as he coldly shouted, "Don't let me see you before I kill you! Otherwise, I'll teach you a lesson every time I see you!"
Last time, my own dad hit him so hard that he almost died in the hospital.
They thought he would be left to fend for himself on the streets, saving them the trouble of taking action, but the Ning family couldn't stand it anymore and had Ning Lang take him back.
My dad said that the older generation of the Ning family had a good relationship with that old man, and they would never stand idly by while the old man's beloved grandson fell into trouble. Since the Ning family wanted to protect him, they shouldn't make any more moves, lest they offend the Ning family.
He also felt there was no need to kill the dog that had fallen into the water; it would be better to keep it alive and torture it again and again.
The bodyguards received their orders and were eager to make their move—
"Stop!" a woman's cold voice shouted.
Ning Lang walked gracefully over, looking at Sheng Yu with a half-smile.
"President Sheng, when did it become your place to lecture my people? You're being far too rude."
