It was nighttime in Beijing.
In the study room of the Ning family's residence, Ning Guangyao sat on a comfortable leather chair. After reading a document in his hand, he signed his name.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the study room.
"Come in." Ning Guangyao put the pen and document aside. He took a cup of tea and took a sip.
A man in a suit bowed after opening the door. He signaled with his eyes behind him, and a thin figure walked into the study room.
The young man had changed into a set of plain and clean clothes. His hair was trimmed, and his face was fair and clean. He was wearing a pair of canvas shoes and limped into the study room.
"Premier … Premier Ning …"
Cripple's voice trembled as he carefully lowered his head. He didn't dare to raise his head to look at the person with the highest authority in the Hua Xia government who was sitting a few meters away.
Ning Guangyao put down the teacup and asked calmly, "Wen Tao … is your real name, right?"
Cripple was stunned for a moment, then he said softly, "Yes."
"I've sent someone to look into your background. Three years ago, you failed the college entrance examination by one point and failed to enter. At the same time, your father died in a car accident and you became a cripple. Later on, your mother died from drinking pesticide and you started begging, right?" Ning Guangyao asked.
Wen Tao's eyes were a little red. He gulped and said, "Premier is right, but … but actually … actually I did get into university back then."
"Oh, is that so? What do you mean?"
Cripple Wen Tao raised his head for the first time. His face was green as he said, "I heard it from one of my teachers. She went to participate in marking the papers. She secretly told me that it was because the quota was going to be used by the son of a leader of the Education Bureau. So, she brushed me off and let that person replace me. She purposely found a spot that didn't originally deduct points and deducted one point from me … I … I was alone. I didn't have money or power, so I wanted to report it … In the end, it was that dog official! That dog official sent people to make my father and I get into a car accident!
My family was originally poor. My parents were laid-off workers and worked hard all their lives, hoping that I would be able to fight for them … I could have entered Peking University and changed my fate, allowing my parents to live a good life … But, but because I was just an ordinary poor student, I could only be played by them … "
The deep resentment and uncountable hatred made the man in the suit standing at the door feel a chill down his spine.
Ning Guangyao frowned. "Aren't you afraid that I'll do something to you if you call the government a dog official right in front of me?"
Wen Tao gritted his teeth. "Premier Ning, you wouldn't do that to me. If you wanted to silence me, you would have killed me that day!"
"Hmm? "Why? I know you have a shocking secret in your mouth, that's why I left you alive," Ning Guangyao said.
Wen Tao grinned, "Premier Ning, this lowly one is not a person of great wisdom, nor do I understand how a big shot like you can think carefully. But I believe that Premier Ning might not be interested in the secrets I know. Moreover, if Premier Ning really wants to know, he can use all sorts of methods to torture me and force me to tell him. But Premier Ning did not do so. The only possibility is that Premier Ning cared about his many years of marriage with the Premier's wife and could not bear to refuse her dying request … Or … "You have other thoughts …"
Ning Guangyao's eyes narrowed, emitting a cold light.
"Also …" Wen Tao swallowed his saliva and continued nervously, "I'm just an insignificant little reptile in your eyes. Even if you kill me, there's no meaning in it at all. If you keep me, I might be of more use …"
Ning Guangyao lightly knocked on the table a few times with one hand and said, "The college entrance examination is in progress, you won't be able to make it in time. However, it's not that you can't enter Peking University …" It's just that after you enter, you can't embarrass me. "
Wen Tao's eyes revealed a trace of ecstasy. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Thank you, Premier! Thank you, Premier! I will definitely not embarrass you! "
"I will hand over the specific work of admission to my subordinates. From the moment you entered the school, you were a distant relative of the Premier's wife. Before the Madam passed away, she entrusted me to take care of her … As for the rest, you're not stupid. Do you know what to say?" Ning Guangyao said lightly.
Wen Tao nodded his head vigorously, "I understand, I understand. I definitely won't reveal anything."
Ning Guangyao frowned, "It's not that I don't want to reveal anything, it's that there's no way to reveal anything!"
"Yes …"
"When you make a name for yourself in Peking University, I will give you some things to do. As for the secret that you used to save your life … When you feel that I won't kill you, just tell me …" Ning Guangyao said with a cold smile, "Of course, my patience … is not very good."
Wen Tao's body stiffened as he nodded silently.
"Get out!" Ning Guangyao waved his hand.
Wen Tao got up from the ground, his footsteps a little light as he retreated out of the study.
When the door to the study was closed, the man in a suit who had been guarding the door took a few steps forward and asked in confusion, "Patriarch, why don't you let this subordinate beat that cripple up? I don't believe that he can endure it and will obediently tell us the secret."
Ning Guangyao picked up the teacup and took another sip of the fragrant tea. "He won't tell us even if he dies."
The man in the suit was stunned and said unnaturally, "Patriarch, why do you say that? He's just a little beggar."
"Hmph." Ning Guangyao glanced at the man disdainfully, "What do you know?" Have you ever thought about it? He's just a fledgling beggar, yet he's doing well in the entire beggar and homeless circle in Zhonghai? Why is it that the other beggars are willing to take care of that woman, but he's always been by her side? "
A trace of astonishment appeared in the suited man's eyes, "Could it be …"
"That's right." Ning Guangyao snorted coldly, "He must have known that woman was the Prime Minister's wife a long time ago. He just pretended not to know. From the beginning, he was gambling on whether or not he could use this opportunity to enter an upper realm. He had a cheap life, and his death was nothing to be regretted. He had long since disregarded life and death. In just a few days, he was able to make that scheming woman trust him wholeheartedly. He even told the beggar a secret that I didn't even tell him before she died to save his life … Obviously, that stinky brat is not a simple person. "
You see, he's like a stray dog, trembling with fear as if he's treading on thin ice. But from the beginning, everything was just that brat's trick to confuse you. He thought that everything was under his control, but how could he hide it from me, Ning Guangyao? However, to deal with a bunch of idiots like you, his schemes are profound.
Some people, even if they are given a good life and carefully nurtured from a young age, may not become a great talent. But some people, even if they look mediocre and insignificant, as long as they are given a chance, they can achieve great things … Even if they don't become heroes, they can at least become ambitious and ruthless. "
When the suited man heard this, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He no longer dared to underestimate that little beggar, Wen Tao. He looked at his master, Ning Guangyao, with an exceptionally respectful gaze, "Then …" Patriarch, since that brat is such a dangerous person, why did you let him live and allow him to study at Peking University? If you give him some opportunities in the future, it will be hard to avoid raising a tiger … "
"Hmph." Ning Guangyao glanced at him disdainfully, "It's because there are too many mediocre people like you that I can't do anything big."
If you were a king among kings, how could you only use some vulgar generals? What I want is a talented general, just like how Emperor Zhao Lie of the Three Kingdoms dared to use Wo Long Zhuge. Although I am not as good as the ancients, he is also not a dragon among men. Since he dared to use him, there was no need to be afraid of him. You are the trusted aides who are the mainstays of my Ning family. He is just a blade that stretches out from the outside, so you don't have to worry too much.
For a character like him who can give up everything, if you really want to force him into a dead end, he will only fight to the death and will never compromise. So, instead of beating him up and forcing him to reveal his secret, it's better to use his little cleverness and cold-blooded scheming to work for me … As for the secrets he knows, sooner or later, we will have an idea. "
The suited man nodded repeatedly, but his face was still full of worry. The more he thought about it, the more Wen Tao felt a chill run down his spine.
Ning Guangyao let out a long sigh, "You …" Mind your own business and don't think about those things. Do you really think that my Ning family is able to occupy the position of the head of the four great families just because I, Ning Guangyao, am the premier? "
The suited man was stunned and looked at Ning Guangyao in confusion. However, when he saw the eerie smile on Ning Guangyao's face, other than feeling even colder, he had no other thoughts …
Zhonghai, inside Mo Qianni's room.
Perhaps it was because she didn't eat or sleep well for the past few days, her mental strength was also exhausted. Lying in Yang Cheng's arms, she didn't enjoy the sweetness for long before she fell asleep again.
Yang Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he carried the woman who was grabbing onto him like a koala bear. He tucked her back into the blanket, combed her messy hair, and stood up.
Looking at the heavy rain outside the house, Yang Chen sighed. It was time for him to start preparing for the future.
Turning around, Yang Cheng smiled at the door and said gently, "Why are you standing at the door?"
The door had been opened at some point, and a woman wearing a purple chiffon shirt and a sequined black skirt was leaning against the door. Her pair of round and fair legs looked particularly slender and smooth because of her slightly slanted posture. Her sexy lips were slightly raised, and her shoulder-length hair with a trace of small waves made her look like a charming elf in the darkness.
