"Uncle Rong, are you on the phone?"
Su Ningxiang's voice suddenly sounded behind Su Zhengrong. He was so scared that his hand trembled and his mobile phone almost fell to the ground. He quickly hung up the phone and said with an unnatural smile, "It's … it's Ningxiang. I didn't call anyone."
"Is it the Zhao Family?"
Su Ningxiang looked at him with a faint smile and said casually.
Her expression made Su Zhengrong's heart tremble. He looked around and found that she was alone, so he felt a little relieved and quickly denied, "You … don't slander me. How could I call him?"
"Although he is a member of the Zhao Family and you are a member of the Su Family, you both live in Yan Jing and have contact with each other. It's normal for you to call him and chat with him. I really don't know why you are so nervous, Uncle Rong."
Su Ningxiang said meaningfully.
"Uh, I'm not nervous. I was just startled when you suddenly appeared behind me, Ningxiang."
Su Zhengrong thought about it and agreed with her. His performance was too obvious and made him look guilty. He pretended to be calm and said with a smile, "I really didn't call Patriarch Zhao. It was he who called me to care about the old master's health. This is also human nature."
"Yes, Uncle Rong, are you going to leave? Don't you want to talk with the old master? "
Su Ningxiang slightly raised the corner of her mouth. The traitor was terrible because of the unknown. After being exposed, there was nothing to worry about. Sometimes, it would play the role of passing false news.
"Ring!"
Zhao Tianya was extremely angry. He didn't expect that Su Zhengrong dared to hang up his phone before he finished his words, which made him call again angrily.
Su Zhengrong looked at the caller ID and said with an embarrassed smile, "This … Haha …"
"Okay, Uncle Rong, go ahead with your business. I'll go to see Grandpa."
Su Ningxiang smiled slightly and turned to walk into the siheyuan without hesitation. "I don't need to deal with this Su Zhengrong in a hurry. He may be useful if I keep him."
"Hey, you scared me. Su Ningxiang was beside me just now."
Su Zhengrong said to Zhao Tianya, who was roaring on the phone, with a lingering fear.
Zhao Tianya's heart tightened, and his anger dissipated. He asked worriedly, "You haven't exposed yourself, have you?"
Su Zhengrong was uneasy. He always felt that Su Ningxiang seemed to doubt him, but he knew that once Zhao Tianya knew that he was exposed, he would definitely abandon him, and then his dream of being the head of the family would be completely ruined.
Since he had betrayed his family, he had no way out. At the moment, he could only follow Zhao Tianya to the end. Immediately, he pretended to be relaxed and said, "How is it possible? I just made a phone call. She doesn't know that you called me."
"That's good, that's good. We should contact each other less in the future. If we were to be exposed, all my efforts would be wasted. That's all!"
Zhao Tianya was not in the mood to continue to get angry. Although the plot failed this time, he was not a sore loser. Su Zhengrong was a mole that he had spent a lot of effort to win over, so he must not be discarded.
"Wait, the old bastard can survive this time because of the little doctor in Ninghai named Ding Ning. If he hadn't intervened and saved the old bastard, our plan would have succeeded."
Su Zhengrong gnashed his teeth and said. The plan was about to succeed, but it failed because of the appearance of Ding Ning, so he hated Ding Ning to the bone.
"Ding Ning again. Humph, he is really a troublemaker."
Zhao Tianya slightly narrowed his eyes, which emitted a cold light.
The Zhao Family started as a business family. In recent years, many family members had been trained to enter the political circle, but if they wanted to let the family members occupy a high position, the cost would be astronomical.
Although 40 billion was not enough to hurt the Zhao Family, it was also a small number that could not be ignored, which made his heart bleed. Otherwise, he, who had always been cautious, would not have lost his mind in anger and directly called Su Zhengrong.
"Yes, this guy put Young Master Zifeng into the police station, and now he ruined our plan. Head of the Zhao Family, if it were not inconvenient for me to take action, I would definitely kill this bastard."
Su Zhengrong narrowed his eyes and fanned the flames.
"I see. Let's not contact each other in the future. I will let someone inform you if something happens."
Zhao Tianya knew what he was thinking. He impatiently hung up the phone and sneered. "An old guy who is blinded by greed even wants to use me as a tool."
Zhao Tianya was a person who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Ding Ning dared to ruin his plan, so he would never let him go, but he would not be instigated by Su Zhengrong. As for revenge, he would wait for an opportunity.
He was just a little doctor from Ninghai. No matter how good his medical skills were, he was still a nonentity. Zhao Tianya really did not take him seriously.
Zhao Tianya directly hung up the phone, which made Su Zhengrong very unhappy. With a twisted face, he swore, "F * ck, who are you? How dare you hang up my phone? I am your ally, not your servant."
"Beep!"
The sound of a car horn interrupted his resentment. He looked up, and his face suddenly changed.
Cars of various styles stopped at the gate of the siheyuan one after another. Big shots who could make Yan Jing City tremble when they stamped their feet got out of the cars.
Jiang Rui, the personal secretary of the Old Master, stood respectfully at the gate to greet them, and Su Zhengnan and his three brothers also hurriedly came out to greet them.
The Bai Family's Patriarch Bai Jing, the Guan Family's Patriarch Guan Yuanqiao, and the Qiao Family's Patriarch Qiao Zhengrong — the three Patriarchs of the four major clans walked side by side toward the courtyard house under the escort of their clansmen.
"Brother Zhengnan, congratulations. I heard that Master Su has recovered, so I come to visit him on behalf of my Master."
Bai Jing took a step forward, held Su Zhengnan's hand with a smile, and greeted him.
"Yes, knowing that Master Su is ill, my Master can't sleep and eat well, so he specially arranged for me to visit Master Su and listen to his teachings."
Guan Yuanshan was a little unhappy that Bai Jing took a step ahead of him, so he directly pushed Bai Jing away and held Su Zhengnan's hand as if they were brothers who had been separated for decades.
Qiao Zhengrong curled his lips and secretly scolded him for being hypocritical. Everyone in Yan Jing knew that Master Guan and Master Su were like fire and water because of their different political views, and they had never contacted each other for decades.
According to a secret rumor, Master Guan was behind Master Su's early retirement due to illness and stopped at the level of Lieutenant General for his whole life.
If Master Su died, Master Guan of the Guan Family would be the first to clap his hands and celebrate. How could he send someone to greet Master Su with good intentions?
If Master Su died, Master Guan of the Guan Family would be the first to clap his hands and celebrate. How could he send someone to greet Master Su with good intentions?
After all, the Masters of the three Noble Families were facing the same situation as Master Su. They were old and old, and their lives were coming to an end.
With their powerful intelligence network, they all received the news that Master Su was able to come back from the dead and prolong his life because of the young miracle-working doctor in Ninghai.
Therefore, Ding Ning, the young miracle-working doctor who had caused a little trouble before but didn't attract their attention, immediately entered the attention of the Noble Families and became a hot figure.
What a joke! There were only four founding fathers in the entire Shenzhou, and they were the pillars of their families. Whether they were alive or dead were two completely different concepts.
Thinking of this, Qiao Zhengrong squeezed out a smile on his stiff face, stepped forward, grabbed Su Zhengnan's left hand, and said with a sigh, "Brother Zhengnan, my Master knew that Master Su was not in good health and didn't sleep well last night. He sighed all night. If he had a good leg, he would have come to meet his old friend as soon as possible."
Bai and Guan Yuanshan curled their lips at the same time and secretly cursed, "Shameless." Master Su was hot-tempered, and he didn't get along well with Master Guan, but he didn't get along well with Master Qiao either.
After all, Master Qiao was Master Su's soldier, but he overtook Master Su and behaved arrogantly in front of Master Su, which made Master Su feel depressed. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so angry that he got sick and retired early, and missed the opportunity to be promoted to a general.
The relationship between the two of them was even more tense than that between their political enemies like Master Guan.
Among the Four Great Clans, Old Master Bai was the one who used to be Elder Su's subordinate. Although he was the one who came later, he still maintained a humble and cautious attitude. When he saw Elder Su, he still called him Old Chief. Their relationship was the best.
Su Zhengnan sneered in his mind. "Of course, I know what they are doing. I'm afraid that visiting the Old Master is just a convenience. They just want to know whether Ding Ning really has the ability to prolong his life. Otherwise, why would they come to see him after receiving the news that Master Su has recovered?
However, the Su Family was in a precarious situation, and it was really inappropriate for them to show their faces to others. The masters of the Three Noble Families came to visit them in person, which was enough respect.
For the Su Family, which was in a terrible situation at present, it could also play a deterrent role. With a smile like a spring breeze on his face, he said, "Thank you for your concern, old masters. I thank you on behalf of my father. Please come in!"
"Brother Zhengnan, please!"
The four of them modestly declined and strode into the siheyuan with their heads held high. They didn't look at Su Zhengdong and his two brothers from the beginning to the end, which made Su Zhengdong and Su Zhengxi snort coldly with an ugly face.
Su Zhengbei, who had always been indifferent to fame and fortune, did not care about their arrogant attitude, and always wore a polite smile on his face. Looking at the ugly faces of his two brothers, he could not help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
The Su Family was only at the bottom of the Four Great Aristocratic Families, but the masters of the three Great Aristocratic Families only exchanged greetings with Su Zhengnan because of their equal status. It was understandable that Su Zhengnan didn't take them seriously.
"Do they have to exchange greetings with every member of the Su Family when they meet? There are nearly a thousand people in the Su Family, and they can't even finish greeting each other and greeting each other until the night. They can't do any business. "
"Eldest Brother and Third Brother still attach too much importance to their faces." Su Zhengbei shook his head helplessly. "They really can't see the situation clearly and insist on putting on airs."
Thinking of this, Su Zhengbei secretly rejoiced that he let one of his two sons join the army and the other go into politics, so that they could become the mainstays of the family in the political and military circles and didn't need to get involved in the trivial affairs of the family. Also, his status was aloof, and he didn't need to take sides in the family struggle and maintained his neutrality.
But emotionally, Su Zhengbei was still partial to Su Zhengnan. After all, his big picture view and ability couldn't be compared with his narrow-minded eldest brother and useless third brother.
The most important thing was that he appreciated his niece, Su Ningxiang, who was as outstanding as a man. Her business ability was obvious to all, and he didn't think that anyone else could do better than her in charge of Datang Group.
Ding Ning woke up slowly, shook his dizzy head, and looked at the bamboo bed under him and the simple environment around him. Then he recalled the previous scene.
In order to repay his sister's kindness, he also tried his best. After trying his best to connect the last damaged meridian of Master Su, he finally fell to the ground and fainted because of excessive consumption.
