Chapter 186 Trouble Brewing
Ye Ling had been living quite comfortably these days.
Shenfeng's worries had not materialized; foreign psychics in Donghai City were as docile as seniors in their seventies or eighties, staying inside their houses all day long and not causing any trouble outside.
The case with Lin Hua finally came to an official close, with Lin Zhen being sentenced to death, Feng Yuting killed by Ouyang Zhennan, and although Ouyang Zhennan was reprimanded, he narrowly avoided disaster. Sometimes events can be unexpectedly surprising.
Ye Ling spent his days at home, teasing Zang Hua and playing with the adorably dumbfounded Lin Yuqing, surrounded by beauties, he lived a life of great joy.
One day, Ye Ling received a call from Ning Yushan who said she wanted to thank him. Naturally, he agreed. In his view, Ning Yushan's becoming the head of a certain district's bureau was his doing, so what was wrong with accepting a meal from her?
So Ye Ling dressed up and hurried out to Ning Yushan's place.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
At that moment, in Ning Yushan's house, danger lurked at every corner.
Ning Yushan was sitting on the sofa, her face full of anger, with Ning Guoqiang and her mother Li Chunyu sitting in front of her.
"Well, tell me, I've introduced several matches to you, and what's wrong with them? Why don't you meet them!" Ning Guoqiang demanded coldly with a dark expression.
Ning Yushan had just called Ye Ling when Ning Guoqiang, accompanied by Li Chunyu, burst in unexpectedly.
"Dad, I'm old enough, I have my own opinions and preferences," Ning Yushan grumbled discontentedly.
Ning Yushan wasn't afraid of heaven or earth, only her own father. While speaking, Ning Yushan stole a glance at Ning Guoqiang's stern face.
Ning Guoqiang, a fifty-year-old ex-military man, had been assigned to the public security bureau for over twenty years after retirement. With his keen sense and experience from his military days, he solved many major cases and had a smooth career in the force; it was just that his temper was obstinate and fearless.
It seemed that Ning Yushan had inherited her father's temperament, but naturally, her mood swings weren't as intense as his, and she had been under pressure for many years.
"You little brat, talking about personal opinions with me? If you cause any more trouble, I'll have you suspended!" Ning Guoqiang roared.
Ning Yushan was taken aback, then she said anxiously, "Dad! It's hard for me to get leave, okay? Don't make it worse."
"Leave? I'd outright stop your work, make you laid off!" Ning Guoqiang said with a dark face.
Li Chunyu quickly slapped Ning Guoqiang's arm, "Don't scare the girl like that, look, you're about to make her cry."
"Shut your mouth. It was you who supported her going to the police academy. In my opinion, she should simply stay at home quietly, doing laundry, cooking, having babies, washing dishes; that's what a woman should be doing." Ning Guoqiang said regretfully.
Li Chunyu was shocked, as this implicated herself too, but remembering why they had come today, she held her anger back, saving it for when they returned home to deal with this old stubborn man.
"You dare to stop my work, that's abuse of power!" Ning Yushan protested indignantly.
Ning Guoqiang sneered suddenly, "Ah, getting tough with me now, huh? Well, I will abuse my power today, how about that?"
"I've never abused my power in my life, but today I'll break that rule. I'll have you suspended and lock you in a small dark room. I'll ground you," Ning Guoqiang threatened.
Ning Yushan was stunned, then immediately panicked, "I'm the bureau chief! You have no right to do this!"
"Heh, I happen to be the head of the public security department, even your superiors tremble in my presence, what do you count for!" Ning Guoqiang said with a grim smile.
"Old man! If you threaten me again, I'll fight you!" Ning Yushan screamed furiously.
Ning Guoqiang coldly laughed with a wintry sneer, completely unmoved. His own daughter threatening him? That was nothing to him. As long as he could get her to find a man, a little hurt like this basically missed him entirely.
Just then, the partially ajar door suddenly opened, and Ye Ling poked his head in with a sly grin on his face, rubbing his palms together, "Hehe, little treasure, big brother is here, come on out, let's go!
As the words ended, Ye Ling froze, and so did the three people in the hall. Ning Guoqiang especially looked so dark it was frightening, probably on par with the great Lord Bao.
"What kind of bird is this!" Ning Guoqiang gritted his teeth. Why was it this bastard again? This guy must have come to piss him off deliberately, right?
Time after time, he had to watch this damn guy take advantage of his daughter, and the advantage he took was so egregious that Ning Guoqiang almost had no place to put his old face.
"Dad, I was wrong," Ning Yushan immediately apologized, fearing her father might pull out a gun and blow Ye Ling away in a fit of displeasure.
Ye Ling, seeing the bizarre scene, hurriedly said, "Dad, I was wrong too."
Hisss, Ning Guoqiang sucked in a breath of cold air that shot straight up to the crown of his head, that anger! Could it be that his daughter had already secretly pledged herself to this guy?
"Daughter, you aren't planning to have a child with this guy outside, then kick him to the curb and come back home with the child, are you?" Ning Guoqiang's forehead sprang up three black lines. Discover hidden content at empire
Ning Yushan was stunned, what kind of thoughts was her father having? He was completely out of touch.
"If you could actually do that, I'd feel relieved. It would spare me from seeing this bastard swanning around in front of my eyes every day!" Ning Guoqiang gritted his teeth.
Ye Ling was dumbfounded; what was this nonsense? He took a deep breath, "Uncle, Auntie, I'm going to leave first, it's not right for me to meddle in your family affairs."
"Sit your ass down!" Ning Guoqiang roared, and Ye Ling immediately sat down next to Ning Yushan, head bowed and fidgeting with his nails, the picture of obedience.
"You tell me, what exactly is your relationship with him!" Ning Guoqiang pointed at Ye Ling and demanded.
Ning Yushan, panting with her delicate chest, bit her lip and then wrapped her arms around Ye Ling's arm, "He's my man, so what? He's the hero of my heart!"
Li Chunyu and Ning Guoqiang were both stunned. This guy, a hero?
Is his daughter joking with him?
"Fine! Bring him home for dinner every day; I want to put him to the test," Ning Guoqiang said, then angrily stormed off with a fling of his hand.
Li Chunyu also shook her head, and before leaving turned around to say, "Kid, you better be prepared for tomorrow. The tests from Old Ning are no joke."
Ye Ling nodded and thumped his chest, "Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely complete the mission."
Ning Yushan was dumbfounded, "Are you crazy? You dare to go to my house for dinner tomorrow?"
"I just said that off the cuff. You think I'm seriously going tomorrow?" Ye Ling replied with a relaxed smile.
Ning Yushan shook her head sorrowfully, "If you don't go tomorrow, my old man will definitely take a gun and search the whole Donghai City for you, and he will blow you away for sure."
"Tsk tsk, you're trying to scare me huh? Look at this, a simple meal has turned into a big deal, hasn't it?" Ye Ling said with a mournful expression.
This time, he had really landed himself in big trouble.
