Chapter 252: Chapter 252: Not So Many Conspiracies and Tricks

If Cheng Su heard Ning Gang’s skepticism-filled words, she would definitely get furious and cry injustice. She had, after all, intended to "rescue" someone out of kindness, and her man even more so. So how did it become such a calculated act?

Not to mention that it was Ning Ge himself who had asked for cooperation, wasn’t it?

Fortunately, Old Master Ning wasn’t confused. He shook his head and said, "She didn’t know, she didn’t even recognize me, and her lover had never met me either. I just saw them standing together. But that girl is quite interesting, indeed."

"Oh?" Ning Gang raised an eyebrow.

Ning Ge was also listening with pricked ears while sipping his soup.

Seeing this, Old Master Ning slowly recounted his encounter with Cheng Su in Flower County’s rooftop and chuckled, "That child thought I was going to jump off the building and rushed over to save me!"

Ning Ge choked on his soup. Was that really Cheng Su? After all, she had almost kicked him into a Big Head, mistaking him for a ghost!

Ning Gang then said, "Dad, was it when your high blood pressure flared up? Why didn’t you say a word to us!"

Ning Ge suppressed his laughter, carefully glanced over with a feigned indifferent expression, but deep down there was a hint of worry.

Old Master Ning said with a chuckle, "When you get old, what machinery doesn’t break down? It wasn’t a big deal; I didn’t need to tell you all!"

"So they really don’t know your identity?" Ning Gang’s expression slightly relaxed.

"They probably don’t. Both of them seem like good kids!"

Ning Gang nodded and said, "I’ve seen Qi Taiguo’s file; he has many military achievements—he’s quite an exceptional talent."

Old Master Ning’s eyes lit up, and he exchanged a knowing glance with his son.

"And you, how did you happen to meet them?" Ning Gang turned his gaze toward Ning Ge.

Ning Ge paused in his soup-sipping and said vaguely, "I was just playing around there, got robbed, and they happened to rescue me."

"There’s such a coincidence?" Ning Gang was clearly unconvinced.

Ning Ge shrugged his shoulders and changed the subject, "That’s all there is to it. I didn’t know Old Master had met them. Besides, whether it’s them or not, there are lots of people who look alike!"

"That’s true!" Old Master Ning nodded in agreement. "Still, Qing City and Flower County aren’t too far apart. Didn’t you say Qi Taiguo is from Flower County?"

"If that’s the case, that really would be fate!" Ning Gang’s eyes narrowed.

"Big Brother, can’t you think simply for once? Not everything is as scheming as you imagine," Ning Ge exclaimed.

"In a family like ours, can we afford not to think complexly?" Ning Gang glared at him.

Ning Ge chuckled and said, "I’m full. I’ll take a nap and then head back to Qing City. In a few days, our company is going to launch. I’m busy!"

"Eat and sleep, what are you, raising pigs?"

"Let him be, he’s lost weight!" Old Master Ning watched his youngest son’s retreating figure with satisfaction.

Seeing this, Ning Gang said, "Dad, are we really just letting him play around like this?"

"He’s got a point. You and your second brother need to climb higher, and in the future, it will inevitably require money. Our kind of family, everyone going into politics and the military, is naturally good. But it’s not bad to have one branch out. It’s safer not to put all eggs in one basket!" Old Master Ning said thoughtfully.

Ning Gang nodded, looking enlightened.

"But I’m still curious if that Cheng Su is the one I’ve met," Old Master Ning added. "If it’s true, then it’s an unbreakable fate."

After some thought, Ning Gang suggested, "How about this, when the youngest’s venture launches in a few days, let’s go check out the excitement discreetly? It’s the biggest thing he’s invested in to date!"

Old Master Ning’s eyes brightened but he remained silent.

Ning Gang, however, smiled, "I’ll make arrangements!"
