Chapter 14: Let Unlike Ning Zhuo come home

~7 min read 1,382 words

The Ning clan's young leader summoned Ning Ze again, asking about the progress of the task of contacting the Young Guest.

Ning Ze bit the bullet and reported.

Bang!

The young leader Ning Xiaoren was so angry that he directly picked up the inkstone on the desk and smashed it out fiercely.

The inkstone hit Ning Ze's forehead, immediately making him bleed.

Ning Ze didn't dare to wipe it, his knees softened, and he knelt on the ground, crying and howling: "Young leader, it's really not that I, Ning Ze, didn't work hard. I really tried my best, but that Young Guest is impervious to oil and salt!"

"My ability is too insufficient, I was seriously overestimated by you. I simply don't have the confidence and ability to complete such an errand."

"Young leader, you look too highly at me. I simply don't have the confidence and ability to complete such an errand."

Ning Ze didn't dare to tell the story of the Three Ghosts of the Huang Family at all; this was all his own claim.

He also wanted to throw this task away very early. Now that the situation had reached the limit, he simply let go, admitted that he couldn't do it, and frankly admitted—he couldn't do this task!

"You, you, you!" The young leader was so angry that his fingers were shaking, and for a while, he couldn't say anything to the rascal Ning Ze.

He leaned back on the chair, gasped for a long time, and then waved his hand: "You can't even do this simple errand! Forget it, I will hand it over to others. Get out! Looking at your useless appearance makes me have a headache."

Ning Ze hurriedly retreated, but when he walked to the door, he was called again by the young leader.

"Wait!"

Ning Ze's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around and saluted: "What are the young leader's instructions?"

The young leader softened his tone: "I read the list of this big exam, and Unlike Ning Zhuo is also on it."

"He got 31st place this time, what do you, this uncle, have to explain?"

Ning Ze smiled bitterly: "Speaking of Little Zhuo, I am also deeply troubled, young leader."

"The child has grown up, only thinking that his wings are hard, and yesterday after the exam, he fell out with my wife and me."

"Sigh, perhaps it's because Little Zhuo lost his parents since he was young, and we didn't do enough, leading to his strange temper and isolated personality. He is very stubborn and doesn't want to go through the back door, doesn't want us to pull strings, because this would make him lose face."

The young leader's gaze condensed: "En?"

"Ning Ze, you are very clear: Unlike Ning Zhuo's father, Ning Zhong, is my life-saving benefactor. I promised his couple to take good care of Unlike Ning Zhuo and help him cultivate well."

"The child doesn't understand things, don't you understand things either?"

Ning Ze hurriedly bent his waist: "Young leader, I understand your meaning. I will go back now and persuade Unlike Ning Zhuo to change his mind."

"En!" The young leader waved his hand, issuing the final ultimatum: "If you can't handle this small matter well again, you are not qualified to hold any procurement manager position!"

Ning Ze's heart felt like it was pressed by a big stone, and he returned home with a gloomy face.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's aunt Wang Lan saw him and exclaimed: "Husband, why are you injured!?"

"Naturally, it was hit by the young leader." Ning Ze sighed.

The aunt complained angrily: "This Ning Xiaoren is really! If he is capable, he should go and recruit the Young Guest himself; what is it to just order subordinates."

The aunt complained while gently applying medicine to the wound on Ning Ze's forehead.

The pain from the wound made Ning Ze's mouth twitch. He snorted coldly and said: "Fortunately... I finally took the opportunity to throw away this hot potato."

"But Ning Xiaoren also handed another matter to me to handle."

"Sigh, it's the rotten matter on Little Zhuo!"

Ning Ze briefly explained.

The aunt heard this, and immediately raised her eyebrows, like a cat whose fur was blown up: "What? Are we really going to spend money to pull strings for him and let him enter the family's industries?"

"No, I don't agree!"

"How much money will this cost."

"We have raised him for so many years, and it's not easy to raise him up. Now we still have to spend money?"

The uncle sighed: "He lived in the school, without tuition, only a little living allowance, which doesn't count as anything, right."

"Besides, the money left by his mother before she died of illness."

The aunt shouted: "You don't understand, this money is ours!"

"Back then, Unlike Ning Zhuo's mother was lying on the sickbed and held my hand, giving me that money."

"At that time you were present, and there were several other clan elders present."

"Unlike Ning Zhuo's mother said clearly that this money was not for Unlike Ning Zhuo's living expenses, but a thank-you gift for us!"

"This money should be ours, and we can use it however we want."

The uncle sneered: "Exactly because of this, we cannot treat Little Zhuo badly."

"I am his own uncle after all, and he got 31st place this time. If I don't arrange it, it won't be justified."

The aunt gritted her teeth, raised her eyebrows, and just didn't agree: "If you want to take out such a large sum of money, you might as well kill me."

"This little rabbit who doesn't worry people, and Ning Xiaoren, this greedy ghost, should all die!"

"Master, don't you see it yet? Ning Xiaoren specifically pointed out this matter to you, just wanting you to send him gifts, go through his back door, and arrange for Unlike Ning Zhuo to enter the family's industries."

"What kind of goods this guy is, and what kind of thoughts he has, don't you know yet?"

"He is narrow-minded and ungrateful; he might forget the promise he made publicly yesterday today."

"In the past, we also thought that having such a relationship would make it easier to do things. As a result, some things we begged him for, either he was shirking, or he was asking for money."

"In order to plan a procurement manager position for you, we asked the young leader for help, and as a result, how much money did he ask for? It was three times that of others!"

"Now, he just wants to take advantage of Unlike Ning Zhuo's matter to blackmail us again."

"Hehe, if he really cared about the life-saving grace, how could he have never cared about or comforted Unlike Ning Zhuo for these ten years!? If he really wanted to repay the grace, he would have directly exerted force and arranged for Little Zhuo to enter the family's industries. He is the young leader."

"Hypocritical, really too hypocritical!"

The uncle sighed for a long time: "Sigh, do you think I don't know? He expressed it very clearly; this time I handled the matter poorly, if I don't take the opportunity to please him and send him gifts, he will deprive me of my manager position!"

The aunt was incredulous: "Master, have you just surrendered like this? Let him blackmail our family?"

"You have a son."

"Ji'er also needs to cultivate, and also needs cultivation resources. What can we give him? Even the Golden Meal Hall's cake cannot satisfy him."

The uncle's face sank, and he drank low: "Fart!"

"That Golden Silk Jade Dew Cake, even the big manager can't eat it as a snack."

"Don't worry, let me consider this matter carefully."

Ning Ze was full of resistance to spending money to pull strings and sending Unlike Ning Zhuo into the family's industries.

Compared to his wife Wang Lan, he was not distressed about the money, but cared about his own face.

Unlike Ning Zhuo and the two of them fell out, and his temper was very stubborn. On this basis, Ning Ze had to rush to find a good place for him; is this an elder?

Isn't this clearly a servant? ===== CHAPTER 15 =====
