Chapter 638: An Unforgettable Night
In the video, Li Ning was whispering to Lu Hui beside her, moving forward step by step.
Nan Qiao clearly noticed that Li Ning was advancing gradually, with very small steps. If not looked at carefully, one might think she was being pushed forward by someone.
Li Ning's expression was very strange, struggling as she tried to move forward.
Li Ning's arm swung, slicing through the air, only to be retracted again.
A series of movements, seamless and fluid.
Nan Qiao accurately captured the delight on her face, a stark contrast to her previous melancholy.
"Boss, I noticed Li Ning's expression wasn't quite right. I'll send you the video to watch."
Nan Qiao: "I've already seen it."
Hou Ze: "..."
He was one step too late again.
Damn it!
He still couldn't match the boss's speed.
"Boss, your keen eye is something I can't compete with." Hou Ze admitted humbly.
"Houzi, don't be modest. I just happened to click on this video and I just happened to see it." She was just a bit lucky.
"Appearances can be deceiving. Li Ning looks harmless but acts ruthlessly, just like her parents."
Hou Ze didn't have a good feeling about Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi and always felt these two were wolves in sheep's clothing.
"Investigate this matter further and be cautious with everything."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely stay safe."
Although Nan Qiao reminded him every time, Hou Ze never felt annoyed; he knew the boss was worried about him.
Nan Qiao hung up the phone.
She didn't understand why Li Ning would harm her.
Could Li Ning be acting under someone's orders?
If someone instructed her, wouldn't the result be obvious?
Even just thinking about it, one could guess who it was.
...
Nan Shan was watering the flowers and plants in Hou Ze's garden.
A faint sound came, and Nan Shan sensed it.
The watering can in his hand became his weapon, and his gaze coldly scanned the nearby vicinity.
Nan Shan didn't choose to flee but instead found a handy tool, ready to strike the approaching person with precision!
Nan Shan stood still, not moving, as the footsteps grew closer and stopped right in front of him.
The person was a man who felt very familiar to Nan Shan, as if he had seen him somewhere before, yet he couldn't recall from where.
"Number Two, we meet again."
Being called Number Two made Nan Shan feel even more familiar.
Nan Shan's head hurt, a sharp pain, as something started to surface, suddenly causing him to recall a scene.
The man laughed at his reaction: "Looks like you've remembered."
Nan Shan: "Professor Zhong."
Professor Zhong burst into hearty laughter: "That's right, you've remembered me. I thought you were a failure in my experiment, but it turns out you're a rising star. You're still alive, which is wonderful. The fact that you're alive is truly great."
"Number Two, come with me. I'll create a special plan for you, help you grow, excel, and succeed. How about it?"
Nan Shan's eyes gradually cleared, shedding the foolish look from before.
At this moment, he appeared as a normal man.
Nan Shan's gaze was fixed on Professor Zhong in front of him.
In his memories, Professor Zhong wore a white coat, a mask, carrying various medical instruments, occasionally pricking people, terrifying to the extreme.
Now with Professor Zhong standing in front of him, Nan Shan's emotions were stirred once more, and an instinctive sense of fear emerged, making him want to run away.
Reason told Nan Shan he couldn't run.
If he ran, it meant he had lost!
The defiant look in Nan Shan's eyes surprised Professor Zhong.
"You've grown some backbone staying by Nan Qiao's side for so long," Professor Zhong laughed.
Nan Shan: "Get out of here right now!"
Professor Zhong: "And if I don't?"
"If you don't, I won't be polite!"
After Nan Shan finished speaking, he threw the mop forward.
Professor Zhong dodged the mop. Taking advantage of this gap, Nan Shan threw a stone from his hand.
The stone flew swiftly, and Professor Zhong failed to dodge in time and was hit.
The pain increased Professor Zhong's anger significantly, triggering a counterattack.
The two were locked in intense combat, with Nan Shan being a product of Professor Zhong's experiment.
He thought he could control everything, but Nan Shan managed a successful hit.
Poof...
Professor Zhong fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Holding the mop stick, Nan Shan said disdainfully: "You lost."
Defeated by his own experimental creation, Professor Zhong was unwilling to accept it.
He couldn't understand how he could lose, how it was possible to lose!
Professor Zhong got up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and spoke with apparent excitement.
"Out of the blue and beyond expectation, excellent! Very good! In that experiment, all other defective products died, but you survived! It turns out my experiment wasn't a failure; the subject needed time to grow. I didn't lose; I won!"
Professor Zhong seemed to be in a trance.
Nan Shan prepared to attack again, and Professor Zhong threw a smoke bomb.
The white smoke quickly spread, and Professor Zhong used this opportunity to escape.
Nan Shan stood there, unable to calm his mind.
...
The day of the fashion company's bridal runway show arrived quickly.
Rong Yan and Fu Qingyan were jointly in charge of the event. The decorations on-site created a strong ambiance, giving people a feeling of wanting to be a bride.
Romantic and beautiful.
Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi arrived with Li Ning and Li Chengyan, bringing a basket of flowers.
Mei Tian Sha Zi: "Qiaoqiao, your company's designed wedding dresses are truly beautiful."
Li Tianyi: "No wonder your grandfather always praises your strength and ability."
Nan Qiao: "Grandfather also praises Chengyan for being brave and resourceful, with his career thriving, he's his pride."
Li Tianyi & Mei Tian Sha Zi: "..."
Was Nan Qiao deliberately saying this?
Trying to stab them in the heart?
Li Chengyan's company couldn't possibly be thriving.
If the current predicaments aren't resolved, it would be like falling off a cliff.
Yet Nan Qiao, with her bright, sincere eyes, showed no hint of mockery or deceit.
Li Tianyi and Mei Tian Sha Zi felt uneasy but didn't dare show it on their faces.
"Qiaoqiao, you must be busy today. No need to entertain us constantly. We'll just look around. You go ahead," Li Tianyi said.
"Alright, uncle and aunt, please come inside."
After the pleasantries, Nan Qiao met Chen Xinwan and Bai Zhenyang.
Grandfather and grandmother also arrived.
Moreover, the three brothers were present at the event.
Wherever Bai Jingrui appeared, there was always excitement.
Watching the crowd grow, Nan Qiao instructed Secretary Fu to increase the number of security and service personnel to ensure everyone's safety.
After completing these tasks, the bridal show continued in full swing.
This was the first show jointly managed by Fu Qingyan and Rong Yan, and both took it very seriously.
Especially Fu Qingyan, she stayed by Rong Yan's side throughout the whole process, never once leaving him.
Rong Yan stopped to catch his breath.
"The bridal show is about to begin, Yanyan. Congratulations, all your wedding dress designs have been adopted by Mr. Qiao."
"Rong Yan, I should thank you. Without your support and guidance, I wouldn't have progressed so quickly. Today will definitely be an unforgettable night for a lifetime."
It definitely will be!
