Chapter 663: Chapter 663: The Gong Family’s Counterattack

As the car slowly entered the vast villa of the Gong Family, the father and son of the Ning Family looked in astonishment at the manor before them.

This majestic building was far more formidable than that of the Ning Family.

Every plant and tree was meticulously arranged.

The people walking around were also capable and strong.

The grand estate covered an expanse of thousands of acres.

No wonder people said that the Gong Family, one of the three hidden clans, was truly the wealthiest in Jiangning.

Just the rare stones and exotic plants alone were of great value.

Not to mention, the inheritance passed down through several generations was truly the crystallization of painstaking efforts.

The two, anxious all the way, truly had no idea why such a secretive family as the Gong Family would seek them out.

"Gentlemen, we’ve arrived!"

After entering the estate, the car drove for another twenty minutes before finally coming to a stop in front of a building akin to a palace.

The impeccably polite butler opened the car door, smiling warmly at the father and son.

"Butler...I want to ask... What does Mr. Gong want with us?"

Ning Bingcai looked anxiously at the butler.

He could never have dreamed that he would come into contact with such an important person.

"I am sorry, but I, a mere servant, cannot possibly ask about such matters. You can inquire yourself when you meet the master later."

The butler continued to be impeccably polite, leading the two inside.

Looking at the building adorned with carved beams and painted rafters, Ning Ruofeng was somewhat worried.

He nudged Ning Bingcai with his shoulder, "Dad, why would the Gong Family suddenly seek us out? Could it be because we have been too close with the Japanese recently? I’ve been thinking lately about what happened three months ago. Mr. Hino disappeared overnight, as if evaporated from the earth. Could it be that he offended some Cultivation Sect and got himself erased?"

"How the hell would I know? Just be sharp, and if the situation looks bad, kneel quickly."

Ning Bingcai’s face turned pale, he truly had no idea what was happening.

Although he had been closely involved with the Japanese previously, he was ultimately an outsider.

It was impossible for him to know anything.

From their conversations, however, the two had a rough idea that something significant was about to happen.

But the awaited change resulted in the Japanese being gone, never to return.

They were left to deal with all the bank loans and similar matters while the entire property, along with those dilapidated buildings, was abandoned exactly where it was, turning into nothing more than a pile of rubbish.

Thus, with uneasy hearts, the two were led by the butler into the sitting room.

"Master, these are Ning Bingcai and Ning Ruofeng from the Ning Family," the butler announced, and then stood to the side.

Gong Changjun, sitting on the central sofa, looked somberly at the two men.

"Are you Meng Yao’s second uncle?"

"Yes, yes, yes...I am..."

Hearing the other person ask this question, Ning Bingcai suddenly felt a bit of joy.

Everyone knew that Meng Yao had been quite successful in Jiangning recently.

Perhaps the Gong Family also wanted to collaborate with her, making his role as her second uncle incredibly valuable.

"It seems like your relationship with Mr. Ning isn’t very good, is it?"

Gong Changjun squinted his eyes, observing their shabby attire.

There was a tone of disdain in his voice.

"This... it’s not that we have a bad relationship... I’m a director of the Ning Group... We’ve been running around construction sites these past few days, so our clothes are a bit inappropriate... The butler saw us when he picked us up just now, I was with Sun Yang, this contractor, and I, as his uncle, have to share some burdens for the younger generation. This is also my way of helping my elder brother, looking after his only daughter in this world."

Ning Bingcai hurriedly explained.

The old schemer had already figured out how to use big names to bolster his position.

In front of the Gong Family, he dragged Ning Mengyao’s name into it, then turned around, he could use the Gong Family’s influence in Jiangning to force Ning Mengyao to bow and scrape before him, which was a win-win situation.

"Oh, really? But why did I receive earlier news that you had already been ousted from the Ning Family? Could there be something else here?"

Gong Changjun’s words made Ning Bingcai’s face fall.

"It’s not an ousting... it’s operating independently... It’s also to legally avoid taxes, as the investment was a bit risky, so after discussing with my family, I took up the lead. As fact proved, that project indeed failed, but it didn’t affect the interests of the Ning Group, so all this was performed for outsiders, and only a few know the real reasons."

Ning Bingcai might not have other skills, but lying and making up stories were certainly something he could do in the blink of an eye.

His arguments, though flawed, were indeed businesslike.

After hearing this, Gong Changjun suddenly laughed.

"So it’s true that you have a very good relationship with Ning Mengyao. In that case, you should be the one to atone for the Ning Family first. Men, chop these two up and feed them to the dogs!"

"Yes!"

Before the two could react, the bodyguards had already rushed up from behind.

They held down the two men and dragged them outside.

"Mr. Gong... that’s not right... Are you mistaking me for someone else... I haven’t offended you!"

Ning Bingcai immediately shouted loudly.

His careful plans had just been established when they inexplicably crumbled.

"You’re right, you haven’t offended me directly, but your son-in-law from the Ning Family killed my grandson. Do you think that counts as an offense?"

Gong Changjun snorted coldly, "Now, do you understand why you’re going to die? It’s all because the Ning Family chose a fine son-in-law!"

"Mr. Gong... Family Head...no... I was lying before... I’ve long since been disassociated from the Ning Family... the butler can testify for me... I was thrown out by Ning Mengyao’s lackey!"

It was unexpected for Ning Bingcai that claiming relatives hit a hard barrier, and he shouted urgently.

Hearing this, Gong Changjun then turned towards the butler.

"Indeed, the two of them were thrown out by security!"

The butler’s response brought a slight smile to Gong Changjun’s lips, and he gestured to the bodyguards to bring them back. This back-and-forth indeed nearly scared them to death.

"Mr. Gong... I was wrong, I was talking nonsense just now, I won’t do it again, let me tell you the truth, I was disowned by the Ning Family long ago, now I am left to wander the streets, and this heartless Ning Mengyao refuses to care for me, so if you have any grievances with the Ning Family, please take it up with her. If you could chop off Ning Mengyao and Lin Fan’s heads, you’d be doing me a great service."

Ning Bingcai collapsed on the ground, crying and wailing, eliciting a slight smile from Gong Changjun.

"Chopping off their heads isn’t a problem, but right now, I need you two to do something for me."

"As long as we can serve the Family Head, we are ready to work like oxen and horses."

Ning Changfeng quickly swore. Embracing such powerful support was even more profitable than making a deal with the little devils.

"You don’t need to work like oxen and horses!"

Gong Changjun waved his hand and called the two men closer to whisper, "You go back to the Ning Family and find out if Lin Fan has indeed become a vegetable!"
