"The police’s undercover agent? Ha... My dear second brother, are you really stupid or pretending to be? This woman sure has the nerve to say that."
Ning Zihuan mocked.
"Third Young Master." Jing He walked over and threw a bomb at Ning Ziqi’s feet, startling him.
"This bomb is already defused," Jing He began to explain, "A few days ago, Second Young Master brought Bai Xue to the Ning family. Bai Xue took advantage of the ti when Second Young Master went out to sneak into Third Young Master’s room and planted this tid bomb under the bed. If Third Young Master hadn’t discovered it in ti, you might be facing a pile of ashes right now."
The more Jing He spoke, the darker Ning Ziqi’s face beca.
Ning Zihuan smirked with a playful smile, savoring Ning Ziqi’s current expression.
"Perhaps fearing that the bomb wouldn’t kill Third Young Master, she left another move and poisoned Third Young Master’s kettle." Jing He took out a glass of water, and at that mont, the general ca running in from outside with a white cat in its mouth and dropped it on the ground. The white cat wed weakly, trembling under the general’s oppressive presence.
Jing He pinched the white cat’s neck to force it to drink the water. The cat died after taking a sip, showing how deadly the poison was.
Looking at the dead cat on the ground, Ning Zihuan’s eyes were cold and fierce.
Ning Ziqi stepped back in disbelief.
The general carried the white cat’s corpse and ran off. Jing He slowly straightened up and said coldly, "Second Young Master might not know, but every corner of this villa is equipped with caras. Everything that happens in each room is clearly recorded. If Second Young Master still doesn’t believe it, you can take this USB drive back to have a good look."
Jing He spread out his palm, where a USB drive lay quietly.
At this point, Ning Ziqi had no choice but to believe, as the evidence was right in front of him, yet when he opened his mouth, he suddenly didn’t know what to say.
"Second Brother, you need to be more observant with won. If it was anyone else, I wouldn’t even bother to explain."
Ning Zihuan yawned, got up, and walked upstairs. "Jing He, see the guest out."
Jing He bowed respectfully, "Second Young Master, please."
Ning Ziqi glanced at Ning Zihuan’s back, pursing his lips as he said, "Can I see her one more ti?"
"Better not to see than to et; having emotions is like having none...." Ning Zihuan sighed and disappeared onto the second floor.
Ning Ziqi left the Ning family reluctantly, looking back at the villa behind him, still feeling unwilling.
Xuexue... Did you really deceive ?

The Angel Foundation Charity Night Gala comnced slowly as night fell.
This charity gala was a gathering of celebrities and stars, along with nurous political and business moguls, most of whom ca for Ji Yunya’s sake. Ji Group had already announced that Ji Yunya would be attending the gala tonight, which was the reason for the guests’ eagerness to participate.
There would also be a charity auction tonight, where celebrities attending would donate items for auction. The proceeds would be used for upcoming charity projects, which is a common thod at such charity galas.
The president of Huanyu Group happened to be in Jiangzhou for so business and took the ti to attend. Shen Liang was now almost a household na in Country Hua, giving speeches around the world, and every word drew public attention.
It’s no exaggeration to say he’s the most popular figure among businessn.
The capital market backing him ensures that wherever he goes, he attracts the most attention.
Although Shen Liang spoke eloquently and persuasively on the stage, privately, he was a man of few words, exchanging a few pleasantries before finding a corner seat to watch the well-dressed crowd, shaking his head with a chuckle.
This young girl’s capabilities are impressive, seeing how she’s managing this charity. Just a few days ago, Mr. Qin emphasized her in a eting, urging more promotion, and those catching wind of it hurriedly ca to latch onto her coattails.
Huanyu Group annually allocates a sizable amount for charity work, aligning with his pragmatic style, rarely known to the public, often still labeled a vampire by the people, accused of exploiting them for money. Yet, Shen Liang holds his ground, never fearing gossip.
Even Mayor Tang was in attendance, reflecting Ji Yunya’s esteed reputation. Ji’s significant contribution to the economic developnt of Jiangzhou makes Mayor Tang the happiest one around, ensuring that this event had to be supported. Not to ntion, she was Mr. Yan’s future daughter-in-law, making it a relationship that couldn’t be offended.
Chen Tao, a senior executive at Ji’s and administrator at the Angel Foundation, was hosting the gala tonight. He mingled smoothly among the guests despite his slick nature, proving useful under Yun Ya’s guidance. Clarity sotis requires such people.
"Will Miss Ji really co?"
"For sure, for sure, President Ji will definitely be here." Chen Tao had answered this countless tis, grumbling internally but smiling outwardly.
Constantly checking his watch, he urged his assistant to keep an eye on the entrance and imdiately notify him when President Ji arrived.
The charity gala wouldn’t be complete without journalists, mostly from official dia, waiting eagerly for Ji Yunya’s appearance.
As the event was set to start, Chen Tao decided to begin the charity auction. Halfway through, the atmosphere was lively. A necklace worn by the Princess of Monaco, owned by the famous actress Xing Minmin, was auctioned for a high price of two million, with the bidding still increasing. Xing Minmin basked in the attention, proudly straightening her back, thinking that she would make headlines tomorrow after spending big.
Recently embroiled in a scandal, tonight’s action would earn her back so favor, making the expense worthwhile.
An assistant whispered sothing to Chen Tao, brightening his eyes as he announced, "Next, this donation is a piece titled ’Spring Light’ by the national painting master Elder Master Qi Junxin."
With Chen Tao’s words, exclamations of surprise spread among the guests. No Hua people were unfamiliar with the na Qi Junxin, an undisputed national painting master and art treasure. After his death, each painting soared in price. Such a precious piece for auction was incomparably superior to Xing Minmin’s jewelry.
"Who could it be with such a grand gesture?"
"I saw Elder Master Qi Junxin’s ’Spring Light’ at a charity auction in Capital City before. I was fortunate to attend, and it was Miss Ji’s collection....." A forr attendee of that charity auction spoke up.
The revelation sent ripples through the crowd: it was Ji Yunya making this grand gesture. Many present still rembered the commotion at that charity auction.
"Please remain quiet, yes, the donor of this painting is indeed President Ji. President Ji devoted her modest efforts for the developnt of charitable causes. Let us thank President Ji once again for her kind heart."
The applause was long and enduring, with everyone scanning the surroundings, searching for Ji Yunya’s presence.
Xing Minmin lowered her head in sha, realizing that compared to Ji Yunya’s contributions, her own seed insignificant. She couldn’t steal any of the thunder because anywhere Ji Yunya was, her impact was as powerful as an atomic bomb.
"Alright, let’s begin the auction now, starting the bidding for ’Spring Light’ at twenty-five million."
If anyone had initially remained composed, ’Spring Light’s appearance broke their composure, leading to a flurry of bids that soared to an astronomical price of eighty million.
Eighty million, oh my, Xing Minmin was stunned, realizing money almost seed irrelevant.
"One hundred million," a steady voice suddenly called out, instantly silencing the surroundings.
People imdiately looked towards the speaker. Sitting quietly in a corner was an unassuming yet profoundly composed person, naturally commanding respect. So people, without saying a word, already dominated the room with their presence.
"Is it President Shen?"
"President Shen from Huanyu, with such wealth, we can’t compete with him. We might as well give up early."
