Chapter 187 Didn't Check the Almanac Before Going Out?
The next evening, Ning Yushan indeed kept her word and drove up to Shen Yuexin's estate.
"Come on out, change your clothes, don't dress like some punk, you'll embarrass me," Ning Yushan commanded firmly.
Ye Ling sighed deeply, lied to a few women to get out of the house, and sat in the car with a look of dejection.
"Do we really have to go? Let's think this over again. I have a bad feeling about this," Ye Ling said with a pained expression on his face.
Ning Yushan curled her lip: "If you don't want to go, then prepare to die, and don't even think about running away."
"Are you trying to make it impossible for ordinary folks to live?" Ye Ling nearly ground his teeth to dust.
Ning Yushan ignored Ye Ling and focused on driving. Suddenly, Ye Ling patted her shoulder: "Can I ask one last question?"
"Go ahead, but if you're going to ask if we can skip this, don't bother," Ning Yushan was prepared.
Ye Ling sneered contemptuously: "Hmph, at least you're sensible. I won't ask."
"Officer Ning, I want to ask how fearsome your parents get when they're angry?" Ye Ling asked, a bit apprehensive.
Ning Yushan turned her head and glanced at him: "Call me Yu Shan, we're supposed to be a couple now. Have you ever seen a couple where the boyfriend calls his girlfriend 'officer'?"
"Sure, there are plenty of those in Island Nation love action films," Ye Ling replied nonchalantly.
"Let me tell you, if you dare to say something like that in front of my parents..." Find your adventure at empire
"That's harsh, looks like the whole family of three is tough to handle. Seems like my odds aren't good," Ye Ling lamented.
"Yu Shan, if you needed someone to pretend to be your boyfriend, aren't there plenty of guys at the police station? Plus, if you picked a cop, I think your father would be quite happy, definitely happier than seeing me, right?" Ye Ling suggested.
Ning Yushan said expressionlessly: "Men are bastards, what does it matter which bastard I choose? Should I pick one who's not pure?"
"Damn! Are you calling me a purebred bastard now?" Ye Ling said fiercely.
Ning Yushan responded dismissively: "It'd be like now, when all you do is talk big."
Ye Ling was taken aback by her words, sensing a double meaning.
Half an hour later, the two arrived at the Public Security Department's family compound. However, at the entrance, Ning Yushan insisted Ye Ling drive instead, citing that her father would feel a lack of security if she was driving.
"Cut it out, if something scratches or dents the car, I can't afford it. You're not planning to use my monthly cigarette money for a con, are you?" Ye Ling pointed at Ning Yushan, panic-stricken.
Ning Yushan pulled out a gun from her waist and aimed it at Ye Ling's head: "Tell me, are you going to drive or not?"
"Get in the passenger seat, driving is a man's duty, don't you interfere," Ye Ling gestured grandly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ye Ling drove down a shaded path and arrived in front of a modest three-story house, which was quite ordinary, though the surrounding environment was very pleasant.
Ning Guoqiang was already standing at the entrance, his hands behind his back, with a stern face, serious expression, and eyes like thunder.
"Damn, trying to scare me?" Ye Ling murmured internally. Ning Guoqiang looked like a swordsman that day, exuding a strong sense of menace. Despite the distance, Ye Ling could sense it clearly.
By Ning Guoqiang's side stood Li Chunyu, her face full of worry; she too was perplexed about how they were going to get through the meal.
Behind them crouched a wolfhound, majestic and strong, with a glossy black coat that seemed oiled, barking at the car.
"This doesn't bode well! They even brought the dog. If things go south, should I make a run for it?" Ye Ling swallowed nervously, feeling unsettled.
Ning Yushan gritted her teeth, "If you dare to leave now, I'll shoot you, just charge through!"
Ye Ling was stunned, then his eyes hardened, "Fine, let's charge through!"
With a touch on the accelerator, the car beneath them roared like an enraged bull, its exhaust pipe spewing thick smoke.
Whoosh, the car shot forward like an arrow released from its bow, racing into the flight.
Li Chunyu, seeing the car a hundred meters away hurtling crazily towards her, quickly hid to one side, "Is she trying to kill her own mother-in-law? I didn't even ask for a dowry!"
On the other hand, our blade-wielder Ning Guoqiang stood firmly in his spot, unfazed. He had seen all sorts of storms, what was a high-speed car to him?
But the car was getting faster and closer, now only seventy meters away!
Tch, does he really dare to ram into me?
Don't forget, I've dealt with all sorts of big cases, interrogated the most malicious criminals.
I can't lose my authority now, otherwise, how will I be able to intimidate this young man later?
However, the car rushing towards him showed absolutely no sign of stopping, and sweat instantly beaded Ning's forehead.
"Is this kid trying to murder me?" Ning Guoqiang swallowed hard.
"No way! I need to dodge!" Ning Guoqiang made up his mind, his nimble steps carried him to one side in a flash.
The car missed Ning Guoqiang by a hair, as Ning Yushan, pale-faced, yelled, "Stop the car you bastard, do you want to kill my dad?"
Ye Ling shuddered all over, and his foot slammed on the brake, but the inertia still caused the car, weighing in tons, to wildly fishtail out.
Screeching, a mark was etched onto the cement, and both Ning Yushan and Ye Ling heard a pitiful whimper, freezing them in their tracks.
"It's not your dad who's dead, is it?" Ye Ling, too, was sweating from fear; if he actually killed Ning Guoqiang, he'd have no choice but to run for it.
Ning Yushan tried to calm her racing heart, "Don't talk nonsense, my dad is standing there quite steadily, it's just that his face looks a bit off."
"And your mom?" Ye Ling swallowed before asking again.
Ning Yushan glanced at Li Chunyu, "She's fine too, it seems we worried for nothing."
"What about the dog?" Ye Ling was now quite relaxed.
Ning Yushan suddenly felt stupid as she saw her father's expression get darker in the rearview mirror, and he also looked rather disheveled; she shouted, "Oh no."
"Wang Cai!" Ning Yushan screamed, got out of the car, and saw the wolf dog crouching behind her father, unfortunately met its demise.
Ning Guoqiang's face was almost dripping with ink—this dog was his treasure.
"Intimidation, this is outright intimidation. What sort of person did we let in, flattening my dog as he comes through the door, are you looking for death? I'll blast you!" Ning Guoqiang furiously drew the handgun from his waist.
Li Chunyu, terrified, quickly snatched it away, "Old Ning, don't be rash!"
Ye Ling staggered out of the car, his lips twitching, looking like a primary school student who had done something wrong, feeling quite unsettled inside.
Seeing the scene unfold before her, Ning Yushan slapped her forehead; did she not check the almanac before leaving the house today, or is it that her father and Ye Ling are inherently incompatible?
