Chapter 1134 - 1135: Sharp Questioning
Chapter 1134: Chapter 1135: Sharp Questioning
The Ning Family was holding a family interrogation meeting late at night. Naturally, the ones doing the interrogation were the eldest, the second, and the head of the Ning Family, while the one being interrogated was, of course, the most troublesome one, Ning Lao Si.
"Look at what you’re wearing, what kind of mess is this? You come from a military family, not a street thug, and certainly not some gigolo in a dance hall. What nonsense!" Ning Gang shouted at Ning Ge.
Ning Ge bowed his head, seemingly accepting the lesson humbly, but in his heart, he couldn’t stop thinking about who killed the honest man. Bai Ying had said it was a poisoned needle piercing through his forehead, causing instant death.
The honest man lay on the floor not far from the door, which was wide open. It seemed someone opened the door, and he was attacked and fell to the ground.
Why kill him? Was it because he knew some secret? Could the Loo Family have done it?
If that’s the case, then the Loo Family is truly a big bomb waiting to be diffused!
Ning Ge pressed his lips together and closed his eyes slightly, carefully recalling the scene back then.
Suddenly, a person wearing a cap appeared in his memory—someone he had bumped into while running. Could that man in the cap be the murderer?
Ning Ge furrowed his brows.
"Why don’t you speak up! What have you been doing these days?" Ning Gang was furious seeing him not respond with a single word.
"Talk it out properly; maybe Lao Si has his reasons, right, Xiao Si?" The sister-in-law gently patted Ning Ge’s shoulder, saying, "Apologize to your big brother quickly."
Ning Ge belatedly responded with an "ah" and with a mischievous grin said, "Big brother, I’m sorry!"
Ning Gang got even angrier: "Look at your attitude, are you ignoring me, your second brother, and even Dad?"
"He’s still young..." the sister-in-law interjected.
"Young? Only you treat him like a child. He’s nearly thirty and still doesn’t know his mind. You should listen to what the second has to say—he was caught hugging a dancer at a restaurant! Can that be a proper job!" Ning Gang cut her off.
"If it weren’t for Cheng Su calling, we wouldn’t have even known he returned to Beijing. He came back but didn’t inform us and didn’t come home. What are you thinking? Do you even consider this family?"
Ning Ge caught something crucial and asked, "What, Cheng Su called?" No wonder, it turned out to be that girl’s revelation.
"Xiao Cheng called today; it seemed she had something to discuss with you. If you have time, give her a call back and ask what it’s about; it seems to be work-related," the elder who hadn’t spoken yet said.
Ning Ge responded with an "oh."
"You’ve been back in Beijing for several days; where have you been fooling around?" Ning Li asked with a stern face.
"Second brother, I wasn’t fooling around, just hanging out with friends in the suburbs of the Capital City for a few days and didn’t have time to come back," Ning Ge laughed.
But in this family, no one is a fool; who would believe such a flimsy lie?
"I see you’re getting more unruly. We thought you became sensible after starting a business, but it was all an illusion. We have no idea what you’re doing behind our backs!" Ning Gang squinted his eyes at him: "Tell us, how many things are you hiding from us!"
"And what about you, big brother? Is what you do behind our backs the same as what we see upfront?" Ning Ge retorted without thinking, his words sharp and questioning.
"What do you mean by this?" Ning Gang’s face darkened: "Are you questioning me?"
The elder and Ning Li furrowed their brows, their eyes scrutinizing Ning Ge. Even the sister-in-law appeared a bit astonished.
However, Ning Ge just shrugged with a smile and said, "I’m just saying, you don’t know my work, and I don’t know yours. It’s not like we have to talk about everything!"
He smiled mischievously as always, as if the sharpness just now was merely an illusion for everyone.
