At this moment, Ning Zhiheng and Lu Jingyi were chatting and laughing in the living room. Lu Jingyi deliberately flattered Quan Yulong, who echoed him from the side. Before long, the relationship between the two became even closer.
Ning Liangcai sat to the side, unable to get a word in edgewise. He stared blankly at his son beside him, as if he were looking at a completely different person.
Watching him skillfully use official jargon, organize his words flawlessly, sometimes friendly and sometimes stern, manipulate the emotions of the person he was talking to according to his own ideas, firmly control the rhythm of the conversation, his demeanor was measured, and his speech was extraordinary. This was completely the performance of a master of officialdom, speaking with ease!
Is this still the same introverted, stubborn, and taciturn son who has been like this since childhood? Ning Liangcai couldn't help but ask himself. This officialdom is truly a good place to temper people, and it has actually tempered his son into who he is!
The two had a pleasant conversation with Ning Zhiheng. Having achieved their goal and successfully completed the task assigned to them by Liu Tongfang, they soon got up to take their leave. Ning Zhiheng smiled and nodded, indicating to Sun Jiacheng to see them off to the door.
Ning Liangcai watched them leave before he came to his senses. He looked at Ning Zhiheng and said with satisfaction, "Zhiheng, you are different after all. Come to think of it, people always have to grow up. But you surprised me too much!"
Suddenly he remembered something and asked, "What exactly is your position now?"
Ning Zhiheng smiled slightly, his tone carrying a hint of arrogance, and said, "I have made many merits and been promoted in the past six months. I am now a major and the leader of the action team in the Nanjing Military Intelligence Investigation Department!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Liangcai suddenly realized that his son had truly returned home in glory. He was overjoyed, feeling that Ning Zhiheng's success was his own success, and his heart was filled with pride!
At this moment, Sun Jiacheng also saw the two out the door and came back from outside. He said to Ning Zhiheng, "Team leader, the people have been seen off. They wanted to leave a vehicle and a person here to accompany them, but I declined!"
"Well done," Ning Zhiheng nodded. He turned and walked to the guest table, gently stroking the five boxes. He smiled and said, "This Liu Tongfang is really sensible. I don't know how to make things difficult for him. Oh well! You can't hit a smiling face. I'll let him off this time!"
At this point, he gently opened a box, which was filled with brand-new pounds, and then opened another box, which was full of colorful stacks of dollars.
Ning Zhiheng nodded, not surprised. It was no secret that he preferred the British pound and the US dollar, and Liu Tongfang should already know that.
Another box was opened, and inside were neatly arranged gold bars, dazzlingly bright.
Two more boxes were opened, and inside were ten precious antique jade artifacts. Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but frown. Although he liked these things, they were not practical, but they were all Liu Tongfang's good intentions.
These five boxes were also carefully chosen, with a little of everything included, which is quite generous. It shows how much money Liu Tongfang has made in Hangzhou over the years!
Ning Liangcai stood aside, staring at the pile of banknotes, gold bars, antiques, and jade artifacts, speechless for a long time.
This is the second time he has been hit hard. He has been in the business world for many years, and he has worked hard to build his business. He knows how much hardship and risk he has gone through.
But all the hard work of this life is not as good as the filial piety his son receives sitting in the house, not to mention the huge sum of money in those two large boxes last night.
The land in Nanbu Bay that he sold last month was the biggest deal of his life. It was actually a way for his son to save Director Chen Guangran's only daughter, Xiaowan, and for Chen Guangran to repay the favor.
Thinking of this, Ning Liangcai felt somewhat disheartened and shook his head in silence!
Just then, the door to the side hall opened, and the family members who had been hiding inside came out. They entered the living room and immediately saw the scene before them. They all stopped in their tracks and held their breath. Looking at the wealth that they could hardly acquire in their entire lives, even an old-fashioned man like Ning Liangsheng was deeply shocked!
