“Fool.” Recognizing that the man couldn’t even control his own son, the man in sunglasses immediately concluded that the person in front of him was utterly worthless.
“You!” The man seethed with anger at the blatant insult, but the realization of the other party’s identity quickly deflated him.
“Fine, I won’t renege on the rewards I promised you. Now, get lost.”
Following the sunglasses man’s command, the man was ruthlessly ejected from the flying car.
“Master, won’t it cause unnecessary trouble if we let him go like this?” The sunglasses man’s subordinate glanced at the ruthless man outside the vehicle, feeling slightly concerned.
“Him? He’s just a fool who abandoned his wife and son. He wouldn’t dare.” The man in sunglasses extinguished his cigarette. “Notify the Wei family to take action ahead of schedule.”
It was the third day since Liao Ning had arrived on the capital planet. Two more days remained until the finals of the culinary competition.
During the past few days, Liao Ning had been residing at the Zhou family’s ancestral residence with Liao Nai. Apart from meeting Zhou Ling on the first day, she hadn’t seen him again.
Meanwhile, Butler Li often took Liao Nai to the Zhou family’s equestrian estate for horseback riding. Liao Nai was enthralled by the real horses the first time he laid eyes on them. Consequently, Butler Li went out of his way to select a pony from the capital planet’s equestrian estate specifically for Liao Nai.
The pony was gentle and docile. Liao Nai successfully circled the entire area while riding it.
“Aunt! Look at me!”
Liao Ning looked up and spotted him happily riding sideways on the pony.
“Be careful. It’ll hurt if you fall!”
Although she issued the warning, Liao Ning didn’t intervene. Instead, she minded her own business, savoring her afternoon tea. The wolf cub was resilient and wouldn’t cry easily when bumped. Since he appeared so delighted, she allowed him to enjoy himself.
However, Liao Ning never anticipated that, as she took a sip of her tea, the butler would inform her about an incident involving Zhou Ling. She nearly choked on her tea in surprise.
‘What? What happened?”
Butler Li couldn’t spare the time to explain and hurriedly made his way to the main residence.
“Nai Nai, come quickly. Something has happened to your Uncle Zhou!” Liao Ning urgently called out to the wolf cub.
Upon hearing Liao Ning’s anxious voice mentioning Zhou Ling, he immediately rode his pony over. Liao Ning swiftly picked him up and together they rushed towards the main residence.
When they arrived, the family doctor had already treated Zhou Ling’s injuries. He was currently lying weakly on the sofa, his attention focused on his Al device, repeatedly tapping on it.
“Why haven’t you gone to the hospital?” Liao Ning carried Liao Nai and approached.
“You’re here. I’m sorry for alarming you.” Zhou Ling gazed at Liao Ning, her disheveled hair and rapid breathing revealing her level of concern.
“Why haven’t you gone to the hospital?” Liao Ning inquired once more.
Zhou Ling was taken aback. He hadn’t anticipated her immense worry for him. “It’s inconvenient for me to go. It wouldn’t be ideal for the outside world to learn of my injuries.”
Liao Ning walked over and seated herself beside him. “Who did this? The Wei family or the Wang family?”
Liao Ning’s anxious expression softened Zhou Ling’s usual cold demeanor. He spoke softly, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”
Aware that he was trying to shield her from seeking retribution against the perpetrator, Liao Ning patiently asked once more, her tone unwavering and resolute. “The Wei family or the Wang family?”
Observing her determination to get an answer, Zhou Ling sighed and replied,
“It was the Wei family.”
“How foolish. They had no idea they were being manipulated by the Wang
family,” Liao Ning sneered. “I had initially wanted them to revel in their own arrogance for a while longer, but they insist on walking right into the trap.” “Ningning,” Zhou Ling anxiously held her hand.
Liao Ning withdrew her hand from his grasp. “Don’t worry. I won’t act impulsively. It’s just ironic that I have to employ the same method as her to expose Yu Nits scheme.”
“Trust me and don’t concern yourself with the Wei family. Let’s stick to the original plan,” Zhou Ling assured her with unwavering determination.
His resolute gaze left her no choice but to relent. “Fine. Let’s proceed with your plan. ”
Zhou Ling looked at Liao Ning, who placed absolute trust in him, and his heart swelled with warmth.
Liao Ning had assumed that after this incident, Zhou Ling would stay at the Zhou family residence to recover. However, the following morning, when breakfast was being prepared, the butler informed her that Zhou Ling had left early in the morning.
Zhou Ling’s actions infuriated Liao Ning. Until the day of the finals arrived, she remained silent, refusing to utter a word to Zhou Ling..
