Learning to be tolerant and understanding also made Yuan Shanshan's mood suddenly brighten. The suppressed negative emotions were released, and the strong sense of inferiority and the desire to destroy also dissipated a lot. Finally, she temporarily returned to the ranks of normal people.
Therefore, at this moment, when Yuan Shanshan saw Ding Ning again, her heart was extremely complicated. She had admiration and love, but also a strong sense of gratitude.
If it were not for his words, she would not have put herself in her mother's shoes to consider the problem, and finally chose to forgive and understand, so that she could find the long-lost family.
Of course, there was also a trace of unspeakable resentment. After all, she had done so much, but Ding Ning would rather knock her out than touch her. It was impossible for a woman not to feel disappointed, not to mention that she was a great beauty.
In fact, she wronged Ding Ning. This guy was not Liu Xiahui. Although he did confiscate her, he took advantage of her when he helped her put on her clothes. He even knew clearly that she had a mole on her most private place. He probably knew her body better than she knew herself.
Of course, Ding Ning would not admit that he had a wretched mind even if he was beaten to death. He just took the opportunity to verify whether some widely circulated rumors were true or not with a rigorous medical attitude of excellence.
It was said that if there was a mole on a person's lips, there would also be a mole on a corresponding place. Yuan Shanshan had a very inconspicuous red mole on her lips. Not to mention, although there was no scientific basis, he used practice to prove that the rumors were not groundless. Yuan Shanshan really had a mole on a certain place.
If he was asked what he had learned, he would definitely touch his chin and answer seriously. After identification, Yuan Shanshan did not lie. She was absolutely the original and honest.
"Doctor Ding, you are here too."
The courtyard of the villa was in a mess. Everyone was building a mourning hall there. Ding Ning lit a cigarette and walked out. Suddenly, he heard someone calling him.
Ding Ning turned around and saw that it was the people who had dinner with him at the Pearl Hotel that night. Sun Kaiwen was also among them, and his expression was a little unnatural.
That night, he originally wanted to stand up for Ding Ning, but after finding out that the other party was from the Li Family, he was afraid of getting into trouble, so he shrank back. At this moment, he felt uncomfortable all over when he saw Ding Ning.
However, his old friends did not know about this. When they saw Ding Ning, they immediately went up to greet him. They did not know whether to let him go or not.
In fact, Ding Ning was very clear about Sun Kaiwen's behavior that night, but he didn't mean to blame him. He took out a cigarette and smoked around, pretending that he didn't know anything, and began to chat with them.
People were animals that sought advantages and avoided disadvantages. The Li family was not something that Sun Kaiwen could afford to provoke. Besides, they only had a meal together. There was no deep friendship between them. It was only human nature for Sun Kaiwen to retreat.
However, he wouldn't have much contact with such a person. He would forever be limited to a nodding acquaintance.
"I didn't expect this. Sigh, what a pity for Anival."
Li Wei, the CEO of Mingda Real Estate, took out a windproof lighter and insisted on lighting a cigarette for Ding Ning. Then, he lit one for himself. After taking a deep puff, he exhaled a cloud of green smoke and sighed with a face full of grief.
"Yeah, I really didn't expect this. Brother Aikel, it's really … Sigh!"
Wang Gexuan, who ran a restaurant chain, sighed.
"Anival has always been an honest child. Why was he so impulsive this time? Now, he's going to lose his life. Is the Li family so easy to mess with? That family is full of mad dogs. That vicious woman, Zheng Guifang, was even more vicious than Li Maoyang in the past."
A bald fat man with a big belly and half a tattoo on his neck smacked his lips and shook his head with a sigh.
Ding Ning remembered that his name was Huang Guangda, and he owned a bathing center. Although he was old and fat, he was a well-known figure in the underground forces of Wu City when he was young. It was only when he got older that he gradually changed his profession. This group of people usually called him Brother Da.
Ding Ning naturally wouldn't tell them the reason why Anival killed Li Mingrui. He shook his head with a bitter smile. "Who knows what Anival is thinking? I've already returned to Ninghai. I heard that something happened to him, so I hurried back."
"It's already happened. There's no point talking about it. Let's all comfort Aikel later. This is a big blow to him."
Sun Kaiwen saw that Ding Ning didn't seem to be acting strangely. Maybe he didn't know about his cold feet that night, so he put aside his worries and interrupted.
"Sigh, poor Xilin. She became a widow at such a young age. Hauna has always treated Anival as his own son. I'm afraid he's feeling even worse than Aikel right now."
Brother Da sighed with emotion.
"This is fate. It's just that Anival died so suddenly and didn't even leave any funeral arrangements. I'm afraid that Xilin won't get anything out of it."
Li Wei seemed to know some inside information and said with a hidden meaning.
Sun Kaiwen's eyes flickered. He said thoughtfully, "You mean Yang Wenyu?"
Everyone seemed to have thought of something. Their expressions changed slightly. They seemed to be a little afraid of Yang Wenyu.
Ding Ning's interest was immediately aroused when it was related to Xilin. "Who is this Yang Wenyu?"
"Yang Wenyu is Anival's partner. Yang Wenyu's contribution to Anival's pharmaceutical business being so successful all these years can't go unnoticed."
Wang Gexuan looked around and whispered, "This Yang Wenyu can be considered to have an illustrious background. His grandfather used to be a deputy provincial leader. Although he has long retired, his influence is still there. Yang Wenyu's father is now the deputy head of the Provincial Education Department, his aunt is the director of the Provincial Transportation Bureau, and his mother is the second-in-command of the Municipal Health Bureau. His two uncles are the deputy director of the Municipal Land and Resources Bureau, and the other is the mayor of the Motuo River District. Both of his aunts are working in the court, and he has an elder sister who seems to be a small leader in the Housing Bureau. That's all, and I'm only talking about his closest relatives. His other distant relatives are basically all working in government departments, just with different positions."
Ding Ning was speechless. Although the highest official position in Yang Wenyu's family was only a deputy provincial leader, the whole family worked in government departments. They each had their own connections and formed a huge network that covered almost all functional departments. A partner with such a background would be able to get the green light in any department. It would be strange if he didn't make money.
As the saying goes, when a man achieves the Dao, his chickens and dogs also rise to heaven. After all, Yang Wenyu's grandfather used to be a deputy provincial leader. China was also a society of human relations. It was not surprising that a family like the Yang Family had developed to its current scale.
But what puzzled him was what Li Wei meant when he said that Xilin couldn't get anything. Did Yang Wenyu want to swallow the company?
What Li Wei said next confirmed his guess. "Yang Wenyu himself is also a civil servant. The state has repeatedly ordered that civil servants and their families are not allowed to do business, so he partnered with Anival. Later, he gave the green light to Anival's company. As far as I know, this guy is very unscrupulous. Without paying a penny, he took 40% of Anival's company's shares and put it under the name of a distant relative. Even the company's financial director was sent by him. Anival didn't want to agree at first, but he couldn't afford to offend him. Besides, after he bought the shares, with his connections, the company's business was booming. Anival could only let it go."
"40% of the shares? This guy is really ruthless. Why haven't I heard him mention it before? "
Da smacked his lips and said in shock.
"Anival is a junior. How could he tell you this? You also know that I'm in the real estate business, but with Li Maoyang around, who dares to snatch the shares from him? In fact, I'm no different from a labor contractor. In order to support my family, I'll take on any small work, no matter how small it is. "
Li Wei's face was full of grievance. It seemed that he had suffered a lot from the Li Family. With a sad expression, he said, "I won't hide it from you. Anival is a kind and righteous child. He knows that I'm having a hard time, so he wants to help me. Therefore, he asks me to do all the construction and decoration work in his company, including the villa he lives in. Maybe because of this, I have more dealings with him and know more than you do."
"Then what did you mean when you said that Xilin couldn't get anything?"
Ding Ning didn't care how Li Wei knew about it. He only cared about Xilin's interests. Although he didn't care about Anival's company at all, no one could take what belonged to Xilin by force.
Perhaps it was because Anival had taken care of Li Wei all these years that he was the only one who felt genuinely sad among the people present. He took out a pack of soft cigarettes and scattered them around. Then, he took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth without lighting it. With a somewhat gloomy expression, he said, "When Anival was still alive, he drank too much with me several times and felt uncomfortable. He complained that although he seemed to be well-off, he was actually working for Yang Wenyu. He seemed to make a lot of money every year, but in fact, most of it was taken away by the financial director arranged by Yang Wenyu. He knew it clearly, but he didn't dare to say anything even though he was angry."
"So, you think that now that Anival is gone, he will swallow Anival's share and replace him with someone else to manage the company?"
Ding Ning's eyes flickered as he said thoughtfully. When he thought of the name Miner Medical Company, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Anival really loved Qi Mingxian so much that even the company was named after the two of them. Li Wei took out a lighter and lit the cigarette.
Taking out a lighter, Li Wei lit up his cigarette and bitterly smiled. "That's not what I think. My son graduated from university and didn't have a job, so Anival arranged for him to join the company. He was the one who told me about it after he received the news. Yang Wenyu has already treated Miner Medical Company as his personal ATM. Anival has the ability to manage the company. When he was alive, Yang Wenyu would still give him some soup to drink. Now that Anival is gone, Yang Wenyu will definitely swallow up the company and replace it with someone else to continue earning money for him."
"He only owns forty percent of the company's shares and isn't the biggest shareholder. What excuse will he use to swallow the company so openly?"
Ding Ning asked, puzzled.
Li Wei's expression became somewhat complicated. He said softly, "There are many ways. For example, he can create a false impression that the company is incurring losses and force Xilin to sell her shares at a low price. Or, he can inject a large amount of funds to dilute the shares so that Xilin's shares will shrink. After he has the dominant position, he can slowly nibble away at the other shares. Of course, with his connections and backing, he can make Miner Medical Company lose all business in Wu City with just a word. When the company is on the verge of bankruptcy, he can arrange for someone to take over the company at the lowest cost."
Ding Ning didn't know much about business management, but he knew that there were too many ways to exploit loopholes in business operations. Moreover, with Anival's death, Miner Medical Company would be supported entirely by Yang Wenyu's people. It would be too easy for him to pull some tricks and swallow the company.
