Ning Zhiheng's knocking sounded crisp in the quiet night. Soon, someone opened the door a crack, and a head popped out. It was Uncle Xia, the old servant of the Ning family.
"Who are you looking for?" Uncle Shrimp was startled when he suddenly saw the bright car lights at the entrance, five cars lined up neatly in a row, and dozens of people standing densely packed around them.
"Uncle Shrimp, it's me, Zhiheng!" Ning Zhiheng had no choice but to call out again.
"Ah! Second Young Master!" Only then did Uncle Shrimp notice the young man in front of him, who was actually the Second Young Master, Zhiheng. "My God, come in quickly, come in quickly!"
He quickly opened the gate, and at that moment, several guards came out from behind him.
They were all elders of the Ning family, so they naturally recognized their young master. After a few greetings, the entire mansion became lively, with lights turning on and voices gradually filling the air.
Ning Zhiheng waved his hand, and his men, carrying suitcases and luggage, followed him into the Ning family compound.
"Uncle Xia, these are all my men. Quickly take them and clean up the guest rooms in the backyard. They've been staying at home for a while now," Ning Zhiheng instructed.
"Okay, okay, I'll take some people to clean up right away." Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's instructions, Uncle Xia immediately selected several servants to clean the guest rooms.
The Ning family compound is one of the largest mansions in the area, with a large area and many rooms, so it's not unusual for it to house more than twenty team members.
At this moment, Ning Zhiheng's father, Ning Liangcai, and mother, Sang Su'e, rushed over after hearing the servant's report. Ning Liangcai and Sang Su'e had just arrived when Ning Zhiheng entered the living room.
"You rushed back so suddenly without telling me beforehand?" Mother Sang Su'e stepped forward and quickly took Ning Zhiheng's hand, asking worriedly, "Will something have happened?"
Ning Zhiheng smiled slightly, gently pressed his mother's hand, and comforted her, saying, "What could be wrong? I just missed you, Mother! Don't worry, haha, I was supposed to be back this afternoon, but I ran into some colleagues and they dragged me out for a few drinks, so I came back late!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Where are your colleagues in Hangzhou?" Sang Su'e was not easily fooled and immediately asked again.
"Alright, you don't understand anyway. Let him rest for a bit, and we'll talk about it slowly later!" Ning Liangcai, standing to the side, knew that his son was probably telling the truth.
Ever since he learned that his son worked in the Military Intelligence Investigations Department, he had made a point of inquiring about the department.
Upon inquiring, he was truly shocked to discover that the Military Intelligence Investigation Bureau was none other than the Jinyiwei, the most powerful and privileged department in China, a force that even truly powerful and influential figures would avoid like the plague. His own son had joined such a department; no wonder even someone like Director Chen would treat him with caution upon learning that his son was an officer in the Military Intelligence Investigation Bureau.
Having a military intelligence station in Hangzhou already makes it a department that no one in Hangzhou dares to mess with, and it seems that these people really are his son's colleagues.
Ning Zhiheng said with a smile, "I brought some subordinates with me home this time, so they will be staying at my house for the time being."
At this point, he turned and pointed to Sun Jiacheng and Zhao Jiang, who were carrying suitcases, and introduced them to his parents. Then he instructed his two men, "You're not needed here anymore. Go and take the brothers to get some rest. Keep a close eye on that Pang Xiu. Don't let him do anything sneaky in my house!"
"Yes, team leader!" Sun Jiacheng and Zhao Jiang put down their suitcases, accepted the order, and left.
Ning Zhiheng and Ning Liangcai exchanged a glance, and Ning Liangcai said, "Let's talk in the study!"
Ning Zhiheng nodded and carried all the suitcases into the study. Ning Liangcai said to Sang Su'e, "Zhiheng and I have something to discuss. You should go back and rest first."
Although Sang Su'e was a strong woman at home, she knew that her husband and second son must have something important to discuss, and she was just a woman who couldn't get involved. So she told Ning Zhiheng, "I'll tidy up your room. There are freshly aired bedding, so you'll be more comfortable sleeping there."
Ning Zhiheng smiled and nodded to his mother, then turned and went into the study with Ning Liangcai, and locked the door.
Ning Liangcai finally had time to carefully examine his son. It had been more than half a year since he last came home, and Ning Zhiheng's feeling was quite different now!
For some reason, Ning Liangcai felt an invisible pressure from his son this time. It was a kind of temperament and confidence that people who have held power for a long time unconsciously develop!
Some people can change the fate of the weak through their words and actions in life, so they have an underlying sense of superiority that they themselves are unaware of. This is the feeling of looking down on the masses from a high position, and this feeling will invisibly oppress the perception of those around them.
Ning Liangcai had experienced the ups and downs of the business world for half his life, and he had met people like this before. However, all of them were figures that he had to look up to. He never expected that his son would give him this feeling. What exactly happened in the past six months to make his son transform like this?
Ning Liangcai was secretly surprised. He sat down in his chair and asked, "Tell me, why did you suddenly rush back without telling me beforehand?"
Ning Zhiheng also sat down, considered his words carefully, and replied, "The main reason I came back this time is about your relocation to Chongqing."
Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, Ning Liangcai asked in confusion, "Move west to Chongqing? Didn't we agree to leave after a while? Why are we suddenly leaving? I've been trying to persuade your uncles recently. They don't want to go to Chongqing with us. Who with a family and a career would want to go to a remote place? Haha, I almost managed to convince them a few times!"
