Chapter 51: Falling out
Within half an hour, there were several light knocks at the living room door.
"Come in." Ning Che lay on his side on the sofa, looking lazy and unhurried, like a domineering host.
The door opened, and two bodyguards in black walked to the coffee table in the living room, each carrying an insulated lunch box.
He bowed slightly to Ning Che and said, "Madam, I've bought the food. Do you want to eat it now or put it in the kitchen?"
Ning Che half raised his eyelids and glanced at them casually.
Two men with low brows and square faces, one tall and one short, with small eyes, the kind of appearance that you can't find in a crowd of people. They are dressed in the same black clothes and black pants, strong and neat, and there doesn't seem to be anything special about them.
"Put it here."
The bodyguard bent down and placed the food in the lunch boxes one by one on the table on Ning Che's side. His attitude was respectful and his posture was submissive, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Ning Che lazily sat up from the sofa, his eyes flickering between the two of them.
The tall bodyguard shuddered unconsciously and glanced around in confusion.
Butler Li came out of the kitchen holding a set of tableware.
"Eat it while it's hot. It will be uncomfortable if it gets cold."
On the TV screen, Monkey King was fighting against the goblin, and the fight was going on fiercely with close combat.
Ning Che looked at the two people placing the lunch boxes and said sarcastically, "I just wonder if eating this will kill someone."
"Crash!" The short bodyguard froze in his tracks, and the Wagyu sushi spilled out of the lunch box and knocked over the water glass on the coffee table.
Ning Che sneered: "What? Was it really poisoned?"
People who have walked in the dark for many years are as vigilant as jackals, tigers and leopards.
Ning Che’s hostility must be correct.
Sensing something was amiss, Butler Li took two quick steps to protect Ning Che. Pointing at the bodyguards, he sternly asked, "Who are you?"
The two bodyguards were well-trained and immediately stepped back with alert faces when they saw that the matter was exposed.
Butler Li shouted towards the kitchen: "Call Cheng Yun--" Before he could finish his words, the tall bodyguard came up and grabbed his throat.
The other one ran to the kitchen and knocked the aunt unconscious with a palm.
"If you don't want to see bloodshed, let us go!" The short bodyguard snatched the aunt's cell phone, threw it to the ground, and yelled at Ning Che with a ferocious look.
Ning Che seemed to have heard something funny, and his lips curled up into a bright and joyful smile.
He slowly stood up, put his hands in his pockets and walked forward slowly, looking leisurely like an old man doing morning exercises.
"Of course I'll let you go."
Every time he took a step forward, the bodyguard took a step back, until they reached the dining table and had no way back.
The corners of his beautiful lips raised in a cold arc, and his eyes reflected a strong desire to kill.
"But I must see blood today."
As soon as he finished speaking, a white porcelain teacup flew into the air. The short bodyguard subconsciously tried to block it, but he didn't even see the path of the teacup before he fell to the ground.
There was a bloody hole on his forehead, and bright red blood gushed out, flowing down his forehead onto the marble floor, staining a white area red.
Ning Che looked at it and sneered, "You made the floor dirty, how disgusting."
The other bodyguard who was strangling Butler Li was so frightened when he saw this scene that his legs began to tremble. He pushed Butler Li forward suddenly, covered his sides with his hands, and pulled hard.
In a flash, another teacup flew out of the restaurant, and a sturdy figure landed on the ground.
The two hands above the side pockets were still stiff.
Ning Che stood there motionless, staring at the two pools of blood and frowning.
"Untouchable! Does Fu Chengyun's father choose people so casually?"
Butler Li sat down shakily on the sofa, panting as he said, "I didn't expect Fu Chen's men would have been stationed here so long ago. We need to notify Cheng Yun right away."
Ning Che went to the kitchen first and helped his aunt lie down on the sofa, then brought Butler Li a glass of warm water. "No need. Their people suddenly lost contact, and the master must have received the news immediately. We just need to wait quietly."
"I just called, and Fu Chengyun is in a meeting. If Assistant Lin told him, he would definitely call back soon. The most urgent thing is to help Auntie see a doctor first."
"Okay," Butler Li said without any doubt.
Looking at the busy figures in front of me, they are calm and composed, yet meticulous and thorough.
He knew that the person in front of him was not Fu Chengyun's young wife, but the new leader who ruled the Demon Cult single-handedly.
The old man smiled silently, as if he was relieved and proud.
"Then I'll call the family doctor."
Ning Che turned around and pressed his phone, "Don't do that yet. These two pieces of junk on the ground are affecting the senses. If the doctor sees them, it will inevitably cause complications."
Auntie lay on the sofa, her chest rising and falling rhythmically, her face flushed. Ning Che sat down beside her and felt her pulse. "She's fine, she'll wake up soon."
A breeze, carrying the fragrance of flowers and plants, blew through the hall, dispelling the thick smell of blood in the living room.
Butler Li nodded, and Ning Che sat down at the coffee table to eat. The sound of his aunt snoring softly came from the sofa behind him.
New bodyguards were quickly deployed outside the courtyard gate, all of them standing guard with their backs to the gate, all well-trained.
The noise just now disappeared like a passing cloud in the turning of the clock hands. No one cared or asked about it.
After resolving the internal troubles, the room returned to its former warmth and comfort. Ning Che casually threw the strawberry ice cream into the trash can and complained silently:
The ice cream has melted, what a bummer!
————
The person planted in Fu Chengyun's villa suddenly lost contact, and Fu Linyu soon received the news.
Just as the meeting was about to end, after all the attendees had left, Fu Linyu suddenly spoke up. "Brother, please stay."
Fu Chengyun stopped as he stepped out of the door and turned around to see what he was going to say.
Fu Linyu rushed over and whispered to him. "Effortlessly reaping the benefits, what a great strategy, big brother."
What profit?
Fu Chengyun was confused, but he didn't show it on his face.
He had a hunch that something bad was going on here. Fu Linyu must have been frustrated to come and yell at him. So, of course, he had to add fuel to the fire and teach him a lesson.
He smiled lightly and said nonchalantly, "It's just a trifle."
As expected, Fu Linyu's face darkened even further. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be too proud."
He suddenly laughed again, his smile showing a determination to win.
"I'm telling you the truth. Daddy has disliked your omega for a long time. If you're smart, send him away yourself. It will be good for both him and you. If you're not smart—"
"What if you don't know what's best for you?"
The gentle and graceful character that she had pretended to be for more than 20 years collapsed in an instant after hearing that person's name.
Fu Chengyun grabbed Fu Linyu by the collar and stared at him without flinching. Endless cruelty swirled in his dark pupils.
"I'm warning you, don't touch him. Don't even think about it."
The hypocritical harmony maintained on the surface was torn apart by Fu Chengyun.
Fu Linyu stopped pretending. He pulled himself out of Fu Chengyun's grasp, smoothed his collar, and smiled slyly. "Brother, is it worth going against Dad for such an omega? It would be better for both of us to give him up."
"worth!"
Fu Chengyun no longer looked at him, not even bothering to say a harsh word, and turned away.
He didn't know what Fu Linyu was planning, but he knew that no one was allowed to touch a hair of my little fox.
Fu Chengyun walked into the office and slammed the door shut under Fu Linyu's vicious gaze.
Fu Linyu was so angry that his teeth were about to break. He had originally planned to use the bodyguards to monitor Ning Che and kidnap him when the Fu family relaxed their vigilance.
On the one hand, by solving Fu Chen's biggest worry, he will definitely give himself more resources or benefits.
He is not ambitious, as long as he can make as much money as possible. This is what Fu Chen trusts him most, and it is also the only advantage that Fu Chen can satisfy him.
On the other hand, when Ning Che clearly called out the name "Xu Jia", he was certain that Ning Che must have traveled through time like himself.
In his previous life, Ning Che pierced his heart with a sword, and in this life he wants to get it back with interest!
Fu Chengyun! I've given you a chance, but since you refuse to give up Ning Che, you two should both die together!
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the conference room, a sinister and vicious face was reflected on the clear and transparent tempered glass.
Sunlight streamed through the window, casting a long shadow behind Fu Linyu. In the pitch-black darkness, all sunlight was swallowed up by the shadows.
