Chapter 398 Making Trouble

An industry association is a folk organization, which is not included in the government’s management agency series, but is the bridge and bond between the government and enterprises. It is a social intermediary organization which resembles the government and a company, has the functions of the commodity production industry and its operators, and also provides these parties with services, consultation, communication, supervision, fairness, self-discipline, and coordination.

Ding Qianlie shook her drowsy head and was somewhat annoyed by the audacity of these people. She believed that since so many banks refused to help the Longteng Group, Chairman Zhu must have something to do with their decisions.

When a person is in a disadvantageous situation, he will have to bend his rules. Since Chairman Zhu suppressed the Longteng Group by using the great Industry Association as his support, so she had to submit to this humiliation.

She forced a smile instantly. “Chairman Zhu, I toast you with this cup of wine.”

After saying this, she took a sip of the cup of red wine in her hand, and nodded at Chairman Zhu.

“What’s the meaning of merely taking a sip? That is almost like not drinking any wine. You just don’t want to honor Chairman Zhu.”

The short, thin boss said sarcastically, but his throat moved involuntarily. “The crimson face of the business goddess is really alluring.”

Apart from the fact that she was so beautiful, stimulated by her job title of Chairwoman of Longteng Group, the others could not help wanting to make their conquest.

Chairman Zhu’s fat face turned dark, and he said with a cold smile, “Chairwoman Ding, I know that the Longteng Group has a great business. The Real Estate Industry Association is nothing in your eyes, so you don’t take a small Vice-chairman like me so seriously…”

“Chairman Zhu, don’t be angry. Chairwoman Ding never meant to belittle you. First, she took a sip to show her respect, and then she will drain the cup.”

William stepped forward anxiously to explain, then turned around, caught the cup in Ding Qianlie’s hand, and tried to force her to drink the wine, but he said hypocritically, “Chairwoman Ding, what I said is true, right? Come, drink it quickly, and let me help you.”

While talking, he placed his filthy hand on her hips, which he had been longing to do, and the pride of achieving his aim appeared and vanished in his eyes. This glass of wine had drugs in it. If she drank it, she would turn into a slut with an excessive sex drive, no matter how chaste she was.

Reason told Ding Qianlie that she had to walk away, but she suddenly found that her body had become sluggish, and then she had an uncontrollable urge to fall into William’s arms, and enjoy his tenderness and embrace.

People who saw this scene could not help whispering. Some shot her scornful looks, some showed dismissive expressions, some turned up their noses, some stood and watched, some shook their heads, some gloated…but no one came out to stop it.

Although these real estate developers were not the top businessmen in Ninghai, they did dominate half of Ninghai’s real estate industry. In addition, threatened by the special status of Chairman Zhu, no one would want to create any problems for themselves.

Some who had righteous hearts had to weigh their own strengths. “Will they retaliate if I saved this strange woman?”

This was the hidden rule of the upper class, where, whoever had the highest status and the widest network of human relationships would be able to do whatever he wanted. At such a wine party, numerous women who wanted to get the contracts that they had been longing for, were willing to sell themselves.

In addition, Ding Qianlie usually kept a low profile and rarely showed up in public, so no one knew that she was the well-known business goddess in Ninghai’s business circle, or the Chairwoman of Longteng Group. Many people even regarded her as a woman who was trying to gain a higher position by using all means. Therefore, no one would act like a hero to save the beauty.

“Take your filthy hands off her!”

A voice filled with suppressed anger suddenly sounded!

“Oh!”

The crowd saw something blurring in an instant. With a scream, a figure flew backward, knocked down several tables laden with snacks and drinks, and then fell heavily to the ground. He twitched for a long time, but could not get to his feet.

“You…you are finally here!”

Pink-cheeked, Ding Dianlie felt hot from head to toe, and nestled in Ding Ning’s arms, her eyes in a drunken haze. She stroked his broad chest lightly as she said this.

Ding Ning’s eyes twitched twice, and his face turned as cold as ice. “These bastards are really bold and have drugged my sister at this wine party.” His eyes turned red, and his roaring anger permeated the air. He wanted to flay these bastards, take their bones, and cut them into pieces, and only then would his hatred be gone.

But this was not the time to settle accounts because his current urgent task was to release his sister from the drug’s effect. Otherwise, if the Chairwoman of Longteng Group made a fool of herself in public, the news would make tomorrow’s headline. After forcefully suppressing his constantly rising anger, he knocked his sister out with his “palm knife” move, took out a silvery needle, and did an acupuncture treatment for her to relieve the effects of the drug.

The noise generated from his beating up William and making him fly off, drew everyone’s attention. As the president of Zhada Bank’s Ninghai Branch, William was a figure who had a well-known reputation, although not every household in the business circle of Ninghai was familiar with his name. After learning that the person who had been beaten and flung away was such an important person, everyone came near, hoping to find out who the man was and why he was so arrogant and dared to hit William in public.

Chairman Zhu and his partners were startled by Ding Ning’s sudden attack, and feared that he could be someone important. However, they soon recovered and when they found that Ding Ning was only a strange youth dressed in cheap attire, they were relieved.

“Who are you? You dare to hit President William. You don’t know how serious an offence that is.”

“Boy, how did you sneak in? This is not the place for such a poor wretch like you.”

“Security guard, security guard. Someone beat up President William. Why are you not taking him away?”

“A poor wretch could sneak in so easily and even dare to hit others. What’s the use of the security guards?”

“Purple Star Pavilion Club? What a lousy place this is! This is a place where even a bumpkin can come in, so how can we spend money here in the future?

…

The group of people yelled and shouted wildly, and their arrogance drew scornful looks from the onlookers. “It’s not enough that that you upstarts are ridiculing the poor boy, but you even tried to blame Purple Star Pavilion. You are so naive.”

In fact, they should not be blamed. Although they were rich, most of them were upstarts who became wealthy and started off as labor contractors at the construction sites. After building relationships with Chairman Zhu, they forgot who they were, but their status was so low that they did not even know the identity of the boss of Purple Star Pavilion Club.

Even Chairman Zhu knew that the backer of Purple Star Pavilion was very powerful, but he had no idea how powerful he was.

Seeing these guys berating Purple Star Pavilion, he felt a little uneasy, but when he thought of his child’s uncle, who was the Deputy Director of the Construction Committee, he regained his courage at once. No matter how powerful a businessman was, how could he be more powerful than an official? No matter how powerful the boss of Purple Star Pavilion was, he was still a businessman, and he did not believe that the boss could measure up to the Deputy Director of the Construction Committee, in terms of power and status.

He stepped forward, pointed at Ding Ning’s nose with his carrot-like, thick fingers, and said with a sneer, “Boy, I don’t know how you sneaked in here, but you dared to hit President William without reason, and this will lead to an international dispute. I tell you, you are finished, now hurry over and kneel to apologize to President William. Again, if you dare…”

“Snap!”

With fury in his eyes, Ding Ning took his hand, broke his fingers, and said coldly, “This time it’s a warning, but if you dare to point at me next time, I will take your worthless life.”

“Ah…”

Chairman Zhu’s fat face became distorted, and he nursed his fingers which were bent back at a forty-five degree angle. He jumped from one spot to another in pain, and screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

“Bastard, do you know who he is? You dare to break Chairman Zhu’s fingers. I tell you, you are finished. You will be locked up for a lifetime, and will never be released.”

The skinny real estate businessman jumped up in fury and shouted fiercely, as his saliva splattered in all directions, wanting to show his loyalty to Chairman Zhu.

“Get out, clown!”

Ding Nin administered the acupuncture treatment for his sister instantly, and did not even look at him. With a cold snort, he kicked the belly of the skinny guy, who suddenly stopped shouting and flew backward, as if he had been hit by a locomotive. Coincidentally, he fell on William, who was shaking his head dazedly, as he had just woken up. After he made a muffled snort, the two of them passed out.

“How…how could you hit them?”

The well-dressed middle-aged man raised his fingers in anger, ready to blame Ding Ning, but when he thought of Chairman Zhu’s ending, he immediately retracted his fingers, hid them behind his back, and kept moving away in fear. It was an amusing sight to behold.

“Jerk, you bastard, I won’t let you off.”

Chairman Zhu cradled his broken fingers and yelled hysterically, “Security guards, security guards, are you eating shit? How could you let such a rude bastard sneak in?

“The security guards of Purple Star Pavilion must be eating shit; otherwise, how could they have let a bastard like you sneak in?”

Bai Qing clasped his hands behind his back and walked over, with an angry look, followed by Jiang Yimeng, whose head drooped, and dozens of sullen looking security guards dressed in black.

“Who…are you? You dare to scold me, but do you know who I am?”

Chairman Zhu was about to yell, but seeing that Bai Qing looked rather regal, he stopped the swear words he was about to say, and asked anxiously.

“‘Who are you?’ That is not important to me at all. Break all their legs and ask their backers to bring them away. I want to know who gave them so much courage to make trouble in my Purple Star Pavilion Club.”

Bai Qing’s lungs were about to explode in anger. He had just learned from Jiang Yimeng that Ding Dianlie was here with Ding Ning, who had been invited by him to treat Halidan, but Ding Ning’s friend had been drugged in his place. That was why he felt so guilty and angry. Even if Ding Ning had killed them, they deserved it, but in fact, Ding Ning just punished them lightly.

“Yes!”

The group of security guards maintaining the order of the club had been uneasy, because of their dereliction of duty, so now when they heard their boss’s order, they did not hold back anymore, rushed ferociously over, and beat up all the people.

“Ah, you are seeking death, I will complain about you…”

“Do you know who I am? How dare you hit me? I can close down Purple Star Pavilion just by a call.”

“I am the boss of Fuhua Real Estate, and I am worth hundreds of millions. Don’t…don’t come over…ah!”

“I was wrong. Please don’t hit me.”

“No, it hurts, ah…”

…

In the beginning, these real estate developers used their identities to deter these security guards. However, these security guards were already enraged, and under their boss’s orders hit them mercilessly, so that these real estate developers cried and screamed in pain.

However, no matter how much they threatened and begged, these security guards seemed to ignore their pleas and executed the boss’s orders, expressionlessly. Those who threatened more with words were hit harder. A few minutes later, all these real estate developers were lying on the floor, clutching their broken legs and crying in pain.

Bai Qing glared fiercely at Jiang Yimeng fiercely, then walked hurriedly over to Ding Ning, and said guiltily, “It’s all my fault. I did not ask people to take good care of your friend.”

Jiang Yimeng’s head drooped like an aggrieved little wife, he bowed and apologized tearfully to Ding Ning. “It’s not Childe Bai’s fault, but mine. I overlooked it.”

Expressionless, Ding Ning did not even look at her. He took out the silver needles from Ding Qianlie, and then patted her back gently. With a soft moan, Ding Qianlie opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of pungent wine. As her long eyelashes quivered, she opened her eyes slowly and looked around in confusion. “Brother, what’s wrong?”

“Sister, sorry, it’s all my fault. I did not take care of you, and you were drugged, but now it’s all right.”

Seeing that the look in her eyes had returned to normal, he heaved a sigh of relief but said regretfully and softly.
