Chapter 683: Chapter 683: Jiangning, The New Strong Woman

"Did you hear? A guy with the surname Cai offended Ning Mengyao from the Ning Group, and both he and his son ended up disabled, and their car was smashed!"

"I heard about this a while ago, but perhaps you don’t know, today their company received a notice from the bank, their loan was suspended. The office building they just rented had the landlord seal the doors, and all their employees were disbanded on the spot."

"Damn, is Ning Mengyao that ruthless now?"

"That’s nothing, you don’t know, but she’s now the boss of Phoenix Building. Even the City Lord dines here regularly, let alone others in and out of the circle. Everyone in Jiangning knows her word is law."

"It’s that Cai guy’s bad luck, coming back from abroad completely unaware of Ning Mengyao. He blocked her way on the street, that’s practically asking for death. Nowadays in Jiangning, nobody dares to disrespect her, or else they meet a terrible fate. Even a few companies owned by the Gong Family have shut down, supposedly it was the Shangguan Family and the Ning Family working together."

Guests dining at Phoenix Building were discussing the recent events.

The rapid rise of Ning Mengyao was like a whirlwind.

In just a few months, everyone in Jiangning knew about her.

Only fools would provoke her.

At this moment, in the third floor office of Phoenix Building, Ning Mengyao was sitting in the executive chair, receiving reports from the ’Twelve Golden Hairpins’.

As for Lin Fan, he was still sitting in a wheelchair beside her.

"Meng Yao, all of Cai’s assets have been swept clean, and these two guys are lying in hospital beds, never to stand again."

The report from Zi Shu made Ning Mengyao frown slightly.

"Did I go too far?"

"This is called establishing authority. It’s Cai’s own fault for provoking you—it serves him right. After this example, I believe nobody in Jiangning will dare to trouble you again," said Mao Tu, shoulders shrugged and smiling.

This was undoubtedly the best state of deterrence.

Who would dare disrespect her in Jiangning now?

"Alright, then. Any news from Wang Hu’s side?"

Ning Mengyao was too lazy to pay attention to these minor issues. It hadn’t been the first time this happened since Lin Fan became like this six months ago.

"Yes, after the last ’Night Rose’ we sent was also taken out, he’s been very annoyed. He should be coming in person in the next few days, and supposedly he’s bringing a group of skilled fighters, including people from neighboring cities, ready for a final showdown with us. Should we prepare something on our side?" said Wu Ma, stepping forward; she had specifically gone to the provincial city to gather this information in hiding.

This time, Wang Hu was ready to make a big move.

"No need. Let the brothers eat, drink, and be merry. I’ve prepared everything already."

Today, Ning Mengyao was no longer the timid princess she used to be.

And the mystery of Wang Hu’s continuous attempts on her life had always troubled her.

This time, she must detain the people involved and find out why Wang Hu’s ’Seven Kills’ constantly targeted her life, and who was lurking behind him.

"Ding-a-ling..."

While everyone was talking, Ning Mengyao’s phone rang.

Glancing at the caller ID, she frowned slightly and signaled to the others before pressing the answer button.

"Feifei, why do you have time to call me today?"

Ning Mengyao picked up the phone and walked to the window.

The call was from Lu Feifei in Modu.

"Just missed you, so I thought I’d call and ask how things are. Any news from the boss over there?"

Lu Feifei spoke with joy in her voice.

Since she left, she had been calling every few days.

However, at Ning Mengyao’s request, all relevant personnel kept the news of Lin Fan turning into a vegetative state confidential.

Otherwise, given her temper, she probably would have given up everything and rushed back.

"He has been gone for half a year now, and just a few days ago, he made a quick call to report his safety. He is said to be on a secret mission and has gone abroad, and likely won’t be back for a while."

Ning Mengyao glanced at Lin Fan beside her and adjusted her emotions, "How is everything on your end? Is life in Modu very exciting? I heard from the City Lord that you have not only taken over the Jiang Group’s catering business but are also managing the commercial street projects. In just half a year, you’ve become a well-known female CEO in Modu."

"That’s not quite true, it’s just that I don’t want to embarrass our master. Although Modu is great, it’s not as comfortable as Jiangning. Sometimes, I really want to leave everything and go back. The pressure here is so great."

Lu Feifei complained continuously on the phone.

After all, even though the Jiang Group was one of the top figures in Modu.

But with billionaires as common as blades of grass, the pressure of life and work were beyond ordinary hardships.

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, right? Managing a project worth tens of billions, it’s normal to be a bit tired. I am also looking forward to visiting Modu someday to see the empire our great CEO Lu has built..."

The two chatted idly, but Ning Mengyao could hear that Lu Feifei’s greatest longing was still for Lin Fan.

After a brief chat, she finally hung up the phone.

Meanwhile, the Twelve Golden Hairpins stood there, listening to their gossip, secretly heartbroken.

"Sister Meng Yao, why carry all this burden alone? Why not let sister Feifei come back so you two can keep each other company?"

Mao Tu sighed. As a woman, she knew all too well how hard it was.

"Feifei has finally gotten a chance to show what she can do. Giving up now, even if she wouldn’t regret it, I would feel it’s not worth it for her. After all, being able to stand her ground in Modu and gain the trust of the Jiang Family isn’t easy. I don’t want her to give up all that. So, let’s delay this for a while longer and wait until she is completely stable. Then, I’ll talk to her about it."

Ning Mengyao shook her head.

Li Qiqi, Lu Feifei, Shangguan Min Yue, all were in seclusion and completely unaware of everything happening here.

So, she just needed to keep Lu Feifei in the dark, and they would all remain focused.

"Sister Meng Yao, you are too great!"

Mao Tu’s eyes were marked with tear stains.

During this period, everyone could see the toil Ning Mengyao exerted for Lin Fan.

She not only had to manage the Ning Group but also help take care of the empire Lu Feifei was building.

In her busiest moments, she always kept Lin Fan close by.

This responsibility truly touched everyone.

"It’s not me who is great, it is he who is. He is the one who has achieved our today. Therefore, no matter how much I do for him, it doesn’t matter."

Ning Mengyao gazed lovingly at Lin Fan, willing to do so for a lifetime without any regrets.

Just then, the door to the office was pushed open.

A flustered Mao Tu, pale-faced, came in.

"Sister Meng Yao, Wang Meng, leading over three hundred people, will arrive in Jiangning tomorrow!"

"Good, he is finally willing to come. Let’s go discuss how to welcome him."

Upon hearing this, a slight smile crossed Ning Mengyao’s lips.

As she led everyone to the meeting room, she didn’t notice that Lin Fan, who had been sitting motionless in his wheelchair, slowly opened his eyes.
