Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Men Should Be So_1

"Ma Li, let’s go."

Under the gaze of the crowd, Ning Fan spoke as he walked to the corner of the stands.

He had brought Ma Li and he needed to make sure she was safely escorted away.

"Okay, brother-in-law."

By this time, Ma Li had already been stunned into silence, her mind shocked into a state of numbness where she could only instinctively stand up and follow Ning Fan out.

"Wait, wait for us..."

David and the others, like obedient little kids at a kindergarten, lined up and quietly followed behind Ning Fan and Ma Li, not daring to let out a peep.

"Ma Li, I won’t be accompanying you after this. Either continue to hang out or go back on your own."

After leaving the ’Coliseum’, Ning Fan bid farewell to Ma Li.

He believed David wouldn’t have the gall to bother Ma Li anymore.

Sure enough, as Ning Fan’s gaze fell upon David, his body instinctively shrank, then he stuttered in fear, "Ni-Ning brother-in-law, Mr. Ning, Grandmaster... rest assured, I wouldn’t dare..."

Meanwhile, a few of the girls mustered the courage to say, "Ning brother-in-law, don’t worry, we’ll make sure Ma Li gets home safely."

"Hmm."

Ning Fan nodded and then turned around to leave.

Behind him, David and the other boys involuntarily shivered a bit before taking a few steps back to maintain a distance from Ma Li.

The girls quickly gathered around Ma Li, their conversation filled with admiration and ingratiation.

"Ma Li, is Ning brother-in-law really your brother-in-law? How come you never mentioned him before?"

"Ning brother-in-law is so handsome! My Prince Charming is just like him!"

"Ma Li, does your brother-in-law’s family have any other brothers? Can you introduce me to one?"

Listening to the incessant chatter around her and watching Ning Fan’s disappearing silhouette, Ma Li’s emotions were a complex mix, with countless thoughts surging in her mind.

So the Ning Fan, who was always looked down upon by her family, actually had such a side to him.

Remembering those ruthless underworld bosses who had all bowed and submitted in front of Ning Fan, she felt a surge of excitement.

This is what a man should be like!

A proverb popped into Ma Li’s mind unbidden.

But then, she shook her head with a wry smile, murmuring to herself, "Cousin, oh cousin, do you have any idea what kind of man you’ve given up on?"

...

In the venue, after Ning Fan left, all the big shots immediately surrounded Baldy Qiang in the middle.

There were those who ingratiated themselves, those who curried favor, those who hastened to mend bridges after past hostilities, and even those who bit the bullet and offered their territories...

After all, Baldy Qiang was now Ning Fan’s spokesperson. How could they not seek to build a good relationship with him?

As for Xu Qingfeng, no one paid him any attention anymore as he departed quietly and inconspicuously.

Everyone understood that the sky of River City’s underworld had changed!

The Xu Family would no longer hold its past status within River City’s underworld!

"By the way, Brother Qiang, what pill did you take on the stage just now? You became like Superman after taking it; you almost defeated Yan Hu! That couldn’t have been the Rejuvenation Pill you were selling a few days ago, could it?" someone curiously asked among the crowd.

"Heh heh, that wasn’t any Rejuvenation Pill, it’s called the Potent Strength Pill!" Baldy Qiang let out a smug laugh.

"Potent Strength Pill? Is there really such a miraculous pill? Today, if it weren’t for Mr. Ning and Yan Hu being there, brother Qiang, with that Potent Strength Pill, you could have been unbeatable in the ring!"

"This Potent Strength Pill is so powerful; Brother Qiang, can you sell me one?"

"I’m willing to pay ten million for one, how about it? If that’s not enough, I can add more!"

The big shots quickly reacted, wanting to buy the Potent Strength Pills from Baldy Qiang’s hands.

But those were Baldy Qiang’s trump cards; how could he casually sell them?

Still, he took the opportunity to give Rejuvenation Pills a good promotion, telling people that their miraculous effects were not less than that of the Potent Strength Pills, just more mild.

Instantly, the big shots placed large orders for Rejuvenation Pills with Baldy Qiang, transferring the payment without hesitation.

Baldy Qiang pocketed several billion in an instant; of course, seventy percent of that had to be shared with Ning Fan.

"You’ve ordered so many at once; I don’t know if that master can refine them fast enough. I can’t promise a delivery date," Baldy Qiang said after receiving the payment, deliberately echoing Li Wanshan’s marketing tactic.

"No problem, no problem, Brother Qiang, we’re not in a hurry. Whenever you get the goods, that’s when you can give them to us," they assured him.

"Ah, I’m so jealous of you, Brother Qiang. Not only do you know a Grandmaster Expert like Mr. Ning, but you also know a master who can refine miraculous pills! Your connections are simply unbeatable!"

Since Baldy Qiang didn’t have Ning Fan’s authorization, he didn’t dare reveal that the pills were refined by Ning Fan. The other big shots thought Baldy Qiang knew yet another master who could refine miraculous medicines, which made them even more envious.

Nobody expected the Ghost Festival Boxing Meeting to conclude in such a way, not even Baldy Qiang himself.

"All of this is because I’ve clung to Mr. Ning’s coattails! From now on, I must hold on even tighter!"

As the big shots continued to butter him up, Baldy Qiang silently mused to himself amidst their praise.
