Chapter 107 A Scheme in the Dark



She pulled a small card from her purse and handed it to Sheng Yu.

Sheng Yu quickly and respectfully accepted the gift, smiling broadly as she said, "Thank you! Thank you! Miss Ning's medicinal cuisine restaurant is incredibly popular; you have to book a day or two in advance, otherwise there are no seats available!"

Ning Lang said modestly in a low voice, "It's all thanks to everyone's support and kindness. We only make one set of the 'Full Tonic Feast' every few days, and we hope it suits your taste."

"Hehehe!" Sheng Yu smiled and whispered, "The last time I went to eat there, it was so delicious! I asked my assistant to make a reservation several times, but they always said they couldn't get one."

Ning Lang smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for gracing me with your presence. Let's chat again another time. Excuse me for leaving now."

"Okay, okay." Sheng Yu nodded and bowed. "Take care, see you next time."

"Oh, right." Ning Lang turned to the side and pointed in another direction, "I just saw Miss Lin Hui'er asking someone about you. She went that way. She seemed to have something very important to tell you, something about the auction."

Sheng Yu's eyes widened, and she froze for about a second before nodding hurriedly, "Thank you! I understand! Thank you!"

Ning Lang nodded gracefully and walked away.

Sheng Xuan and Yuan Heng quickly followed.

"Quickly!" Sheng Yu winked at the bodyguards, "Go and find that Lin Huier!"

I heard that woman has been getting along really well with Jiang Lirong lately, and she was sitting next to him just now. Could it be that she knows something inside?

When she was with Sheng Xuan, he deliberately provoked her. When that girl saw the valuable gift, her eyes lit up and she couldn't take her eyes off it.

From then on, she would fawn over him and flirt with him every time she saw him. A woman like her, if you throw her some money, she'll immediately fawn over you and wag her tail.

...

Ning Lang didn't return to the side hall; instead, she took out her phone and made a call.

Sheng Xuan grabbed a bottle of water and drank it, while Yuan Heng couldn't resist the temptation of the cupcakes and went off to eat something delicious.

Ning Lang hung up the phone and then dialed another one.

Not far away, Jiang Lirong took out his phone, looked at the familiar phone number on the screen, quickly found a quiet corner, and swiped to answer the call.

...

The ten-minute break wasn't long, and it ended quickly. Everyone returned to the venue and sat back down in their seats.

Ning Lang put her mask back on and sat between Sheng Xuan and Yuan Heng.

Sheng Xuan looked unwell, typing away on the computer with a sullen expression.

Yuan Heng looked at Ning Lang with admiration and whispered, "Ah Lang, you're just too handsome! So cool! You're my idol, past, present, and forever!"

"Isn't your favorite idol ice cream and cake?" Ning Lang glared at him irritably.

Yuan Heng looked embarrassed and gave a forced smile.

"I...I'm innocent! Thinking about all those cakes going uneaten, how wasteful it would be, and how shameful it would be to waste food. I couldn't let so many people bear such a shameful burden, so I had no choice but to—"

"I have no choice but to sacrifice myself for righteousness." Ning Lang said in a low voice, "I think your gastroenteritis is beyond saving, just cremate you."

"No way!" Yuan Heng chuckled apologetically, "I think I can still be saved."

Ning Lang nodded and said, "Very good. After this is over, I will take you to Dean Shan for emergency treatment."

"No..." Yuan Heng was terrified and dodged away.

Sheng Xuan, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but look up and glance at Yuan Heng thoughtfully.

At this point, the master of ceremonies announced that the auction was entering its most important phase.

The large screen displayed the beautiful scenery of Lingshan, with lush trees, secluded mountains and beautiful scenery that was captivating.
