While Ning Ran and Cheng Xiangyun were busy drinking and chatting about the wonderful future ahead, Ouyang Qing was also drinking in a private club at Flower City.

She sipped from her glass of Lafite as she flipped through some photos.

A man in black clothing was standing in a corner of the room with his hands clasped behind his back.

“You took these photos yourself?”

“Yes, I did. I took them earlier tonight.”

“You’re sure Ding Mi booked a room for this man?”

“Yes. He was being beaten up by some men and Ding Mi’s bodyguards saved him. After that, she treated him to a meal before arranging for him to stay at this hotel.”

“Why does a no-name actress like her have bodyguards?” Ouyang Qing mused.

“They were assigned to her by the Nan family. Their combat skills are actually not too bad.”

“Is she that important to Chen?” Hatred gleamed in her eyes at the thought.

The man remained silent.

“Keep an eye on that man and make sure he doesn’t escape. I want to meet with him tomorrow.”

“Young Miss…”

“Just do as I say.”

The next afternoon, Ning Ziqiang was starving. Unable to stand the pain gnawing at his insides, he decided to head downstairs in search of food.

There was a dim sum shop near the hotel where he bought ten buns to be his meals for the day.

Upon turning back around, he found his way blocked by two burly men.

Paranoid from having debt collectors constantly chasing after him, his first reaction was to flee.

Unfortunately, one of the men grabbed hold of him before he could even take a step. “Don’t run. We want to talk to you.”
