Chapter 399: Chapter 399: The Ning Family’s Peerless Treasure

In the hospital.

Ning Zhenyue lay peacefully in the emergency center.

His body was connected to all sorts of medical equipment.

All kinds of readings had dropped to their lowest point.

It felt as if he could leave this world at any moment.

Several doctors and nurses kept recording the monitor readings.

This critical threshold where he could be rushed into surgery at any time.

Made them extremely tense.

Ning Mengyao stood guard outside, with her eyebrows tightly furrowed.

She ignored Ning Bingcai and Ning Changfeng flitting before her eyes.

"What exactly is the situation, how much longer do we have to wait!"

Finally, Ning Changfeng could not take it anymore.

Just waiting like this, with no sign of change from the inside.

He could not help but feel the urge to burst into the room.

"You cannot go in!"

Two nurses hurriedly blocked his way.

"I can’t go in, then at least wheel him out, dead or alive. We deserve a clear answer. I’m not one of you low-level people; I make in an hour what you earn in several years, so don’t waste my time here. If he’s dead, just hurry up and issue the death certificate!"

Ning Changfeng roared viciously.

As long as Ning Zhenyue didn’t breathe his last, there would be uncertainties.

"That’s enough!"

Ning Mengyao, unable to bear it any longer, stood up.

Furiously glaring at Ning Changfeng, "Ning Changfeng, have you fed your conscience to the dogs? Have you forgotten that ever since you were born, your unreliable father has never taken care of you for a single day? Always out squandering, indulging in pleasure and luxury, it was Grandpa and Grandma who raised you. Without Grandpa, would you not have been begging on the streets!"

"Ning Mengyao, don’t you start sowing discord between me and my dad here. This isn’t the company, and we are not your employees, what right do you have to scold us!"

Ning Bingcai, unable to suppress his anger, immediately retorted.

"What, did I say something wrong? How many debts have you racked up over the years, how many beatings from creditors have you already forgotten? If it weren’t for Grandpa continually bailing you out, you would have been chopped up and tossed into the sea. Now that Grandpa’s condition is critical, you just hope for his death, what are you trying to do!"

Ning Mengyao clenched her fists tightly.

Though this was all just a trap,

She hadn’t expected these two white-eyed wolves to reveal their tails.

Soulless beasts with not even a hint of conscience, a complete disappointment.

"Stop pretending to be so self-righteous here. You’re just worried that if the old man dies without leaving a will, you’ll lose sole claim over the Ning Family’s inheritance. I know exactly what you’re scheming inside that head of yours. You’re probably thinking he’s already dead and you’re colluding with the doctor to keep Grandpa’s death a secret, so you can keep monopolizing the family fortune!"

Ning Changfeng turned around and stormed with rage.

"Bullshit, you bastard, do you have even a shred of conscience? Did you just come here for money? Do you have even a bit of gratitude in your heart?"

Ning Mengyao glared at the father and son with utter contempt.

Indeed, as the saying goes, the dragon begets the dragon, the phoenix begets the phoenix,

But beasts give birth to ingrates.

"Stop talking nonsense. Don’t you also want to hoard all the Ning Family’s treasures for yourself? Let me tell you, as long as Laozi is alive for one more day, those treasures belong to me. You, being married off, have no right to inherit!"

Ning Bingcai grimly pointed at Ning Mengyao.

"So you thought the Ning family still had treasures and that’s why you came? What a joke. If there were any treasures, they would have been destroyed by you, the family’s black sheep. If it weren’t for you, Grandpa wouldn’t have had to give away so much stock!"

Ning Mengyao said coldly,

She had heard this talk before.

Back then, Ning Bingcai had racked up debts,

Smashing and destroying things upon his return home, forcing Grandpa to hand over any treasures to cover his debts.

It’s unbelievable that after all these years, he still thought there were treasures in the family.

"Stop bluffing. I’ve seen it with my own eyes. Could it be fake? That night, I saw him enter the study and open a box. The light that came out was brighter than a lamp. If that’s not a treasure, what else could it be? This damn old man is truly heartless, not willing to hand over the treasure even as he’s dying. But it doesn’t matter, I’m not letting this go. Don’t think just because you’re successful in business now that you can monopolize all the family property. I’m not afraid of you now; I’ll repute this to the ends of the earth if I have to."

Ning Bingcai stood defiantly with his hands on his hips.

He would never forget what he had seen and heard that night.

He sneaked into the study several times afterward but never found that box again.

But he was absolutely sure he hadn’t mistaken it.

"Remember this, I will never hand over Grandpa’s belongings, not even a needle or thread, to you. You spendthrifts don’t deserve to call yourselves descendants of the Ning Family. You’re just a pack of conscienceless wolves, beasts. You’ll get your retribution!"

Ning Mengyao clenched her fists.

If it weren’t for Lin Fan’s instructions to restrain them before she arrived,

she really wanted to drive the two of them out directly.

"Who the fuck are you cursing? Say it again, I dare you!"

As she looked at the crowd that had filled the hallway to watch the excitement,

Ning Changfeng’s face turned red with anger as he moved toward Ning Mengyao.

His sleeves rolled up; he was furious.

"I just cursed, so what? Grandpa hasn’t even died yet, and you’ve come back to fight over the inheritance. You’ve done something despicable, and you think you can’t be called out? You two are nothing but ungrateful bastards and heartless mongrels!"

Ning Mengyao roared vehemently.

Her upbringing made her spit out the crudest insults she could think of in the moment.

"You damn bitch, you’re asking for it! See if I don’t teach you a lesson for your words!"

Furiously enraged, Ning Changfeng could no longer contain himself.

Raising his hand, he swung it hard at Ning Mengyao.

The blow was exceptionally vicious.

Without the slightest hint of mercy.

"Slap!"

A sharp crack echoed in the corridor outside the emergency room.

Then, a figure flew five or six meters away before crashing to the ground.

Ning Mengyao stood there, astonished.

Looking at Ning Changfeng, who had been knocked to the floor.

By her side, Lin Fan was already standing there with a stern expression.

"Dare to lay a hand on Laozi’s woman, and you think you’re tired of living?"

Lin Fan’s face was grim as he looked at Ning Changfeng, whose cheek was swollen.

If he had arrived a moment later, Meng Yao would have been humiliated.

"You... how can you hit someone..."

When they saw Lin Fan appear,

Ning Bingcai and Ning Changfeng’s bravado suddenly diminished a lot.

Having suffered a great loss before, their fear of Lin Fan was bone-deep.

"I never hit people because I don’t consider what I hit to be human. If you disagree, stand up and try me!"

After giving the two a dismissive look,

Lin Fan pulled Ning Mengyao, whose face was covered in tears of grievance, into his arms.

"It’s okay, I’m back now."

"Mm-hmm!"

Ning Mengyao sobbed uncontrollably as she nestled into Lin Fan’s chest.

This warmth gave her an unprecedented sense of security.

"Alright, stop crying. Let’s go save Grandpa!"

Patting her on the back, Lin Fan said with a smile.

The drama had played out.

Now, it was time for Ning Zhenyue to wake up.

But just then, a doctor in a white coat came out of the emergency room.

"The patient has passed away, please have the family sign to confirm."
