“A typical example of a hero saving a beauty! He saved the Witch from the gangsters and put her behind him unhesitatingly to stop her from being shot, and he did not die even after being shot dozens of times.”
Thinking about Ding Ning’s heroic deed, these Childes, who lived in the world of wine and women and enjoyed the life of humiliating others here and there all the time, felt that their blood boiled with righteous indignation. “This is what a real hero and a real man should do! Apparently, this is numerous times better than pompously humiliating others with family backgrounds as support!”
Hearing this, those Ladies had romance in their eyes, admired Xiao Nuo a great deal, and even wished that they had been kidnapped by the gangsters and saved by the tall and handsome young man. “How romantic it would have been!” It would have been enough to show it off for a lifetime.
They had roughly glanced at Ding Ning just now. As Huzi said, he was very tall and handsome, though his crumpled clothes damaged his image a lot.
But they were not Lin Changshun the upstart who could not see through the real quality. At first sight, they knew that the unnoticeable clothes even without a brand were actually quite valuable and were specially tailored by an Italian master of handmade clothes.
Subconsciously, they neglected Ding Ning’s status and background and regarded him as a child from the same big family as them.
The truth was that the big families in Yang Jing were in the center of politics and looked powerful and domineering, but in fact, a few families with a long history were not a bit weaker than the aristocratic families in Yan Jing.
Examples were the Murong Family in Gusu, the An Family in Dongshan, the Hai Family in Shudu, the He Family in Yuezhou, and so on. Although they did not live in Yan Jing and were far away from the “court”, no one could dare to ignore their cultivation of culture and their power.
Yet, they had never heard of the big family with the surname Ding, but low-profile families which only made money silently were many in the world, and they did not think that Ding Ning, who could afford to wear the handmade clothes, was an ordinary person from a powerless family.
Of course, no matter how good their impression of Ding Ning was, since he had come to Yan Jing, they would naturally prepare a harmless awkward situation for him—anyway, they must make him drunk.
Although Mosquito said that Ding Ning would be busy in the afternoon, these Childes were unwilling to let him off and claimed that if their brother-in-law did not drink heartily, that was not the way of Yan Jing people to entertain guests.
Mosquito had no choice but to send a text message to Huzi secretly, asking Ding Ning to get mentally prepared.
Huzi also had a little headache. Although he seemed to have become the leader in the circle after Dai Zhefeng joined the army, the title had not been granted yet, and it was not suitable for him to suppress them forcefully, so he had to tell it to Ding Ning with a grimace.
Ding Ning did not mind it and waved his hand, asking him not to be worried. “The Spiritual Energy can get rid of alcohol, so I can drink as much as I want! Want to make me drunk? No way!”
When Ding Ning walked in with Yagyuu Asamayu after Huzi, these arrogant Childes and Ladies all stood up to show their respect by looking at them.
When she suddenly saw these people stand up, Yagyuu Asamayu, who had a child’s character, shrank her neck in fear and tugged the corner of Ding Ning’s clothes timidly, looking like a poor kid.
To comfort her, Ding Ning patted her arm, then he held her little hand, and nodded at these people with a smile.
Immediately, the crowd looked at him in awe. “Fuck, this brother-in-law is fierce enough, for he dares to attend the feast with his mistress boldly when Big Sister is absent. Indeed, he is a fierce man!”
This gave them so much imagination. “Has Big Sister fallen to the point of doing things as the attitudes of the ‘brother-in-law’ direct? Or how can the brother-in-law be so bold?”
Ding Ning had no idea about what they thought. Yagyuu Asamayu heavily relied on him and must hold him in her arms even when she went to sleep. Compared with the skin-to-skin contact, hand-holding was nothing, and he did not care about it at all.
“Thank everyone for picking me up today, and I feel very sorry about it. Then, to express my gratitude, let me drain the cup first.”
Ding Ning found that these people of more than a dozen had opened a box of Moutai liquor a long time before, and they were eying him with hostility, so he knew that drinking was indispensable today. If he could not shock them, they would never let him go.
Simply giving up the excuse of going to deal with something in the afternoon, he opened a bottle of Moutai and directly gulped it down like drinking boiled water in the shocked eyes of the crowd.
As for going to the National Ministry of Health to meet Minister Jiang in the afternoon, he did not worry at all. With the Spiritual Energy launched, he could get rid of the liquor completely in just a few minutes. In order to avoid being found on the spot when he expelled the liquor, he transferred the liquor to the Mermaid Space directly.
“Fuck, the brother-in-law is really awesome. Let me admire him first.”
A tall and strong young man of 25 or 26 applauded and said with great admiration.
“Pa, pa, pa!”
All the people applauded to show their respect, and a very good-looking young lady even leered at Ding Ning.
“Brother-in-law, then, let me give you an introduction. These are all brothers and sisters who hang around with Sister Nuo. This is Li Zhe, his grandfather is…”
Huzi began to introduce as he held the young man.
Ding Ning acted heroically. Whoever was introduced, he would pour two glasses of liquor, one for the person and one for himself.
This was the glass with a volume of 150g. In total, there were 17 people. Apart from Huzi, Mosquito, and Yagyuu Asamayu, there were still 13 people. After all the people were introduced, the box of Moutai liquor was drunk up, though no one had eaten anything.
The crowd had been scared shitless by his great drinking capacity. Inwardly, Ding Ning was shocked by their backgrounds. Among these guys, the one with the lowest background was the child of a deputy mayor of Yan Jing. Clearly, Yan Jing was a municipality directly under the Central Government, and its deputy mayor was equivalent to a cadre on the sub-ministerial level; the one with the highest background was a refreshing pretty girl, whose grandpa was even a sub-national leader.
Thus, he muttered secretly, “What on earth is the background of Xiao Nuo so that she can hang around with these top-level Childes? Presently, these people seem to regard Huzi as their leader. That’s to say, his background is not ordinary, either, and the family of Mosquito is on the same level as his, which means that her family is surely not ordinary, either.
“But now is not the time to think about these matters, and let me shock these Childes first.” Ding Ning said calmly, “The liquor is up. Let’s ask for two more boxes and keep drinking until we are satisfied.”
Seeing that he would not stop until he made all of them drunk, these diners at the table were scared. “Don’t do that! Brother-in-law, let’s eat something. Eat something, okay?”
“Brother-in-law, I’m convinced, okay? You really have, have a great drinking capacity for liquor! A drinking god! Well, I can’t drink anymore.”
“Brother-in-law, let’s end it like this at noon, shall we? Everyone, eat more, and let’s hold a good party tonight.”
…
These Childes could drink lots of liquor, but their stomachs churned and were uncomfortable after they gulped down 150g of liquor without eating anything. With drunk red color on their faces, they waved their hands repetitively to admit defeat and were unwilling to drink anymore no matter what.
This was not a joke. It was a box of six bottles of Moutai liquor, but most of it was drunk by Ding Ning, and his expression had not changed at all. If two more boxes were ordered and they still had the courage to drink, they wanted to die!
Therefore, after Ding Ning successfully deterred the crowd, everyone began to drink tea instead of liquor, and they chatted as they ate in quite a harmonious atmosphere.
A few who had been scared all pondered, “Do I need to find an excuse not to attend the night party? Damn, this brother-in-law is so scaring!” If they tried to drink as much as Ding Ning wished, they would get poisoned by alcohol.
After they drank a few rounds and ate lots of food, Li Zhe’s drunkenness disappeared, and he exchanged his position with Huzi, sat beside Ding Ning, and said smilingly, “Brother-in-law, I will treat you to dinner tonight, and you must come!”
“Li Zhe, what the fuck do you mean? I’ve ordered dinner at Shengzeyuan Restaurant for the party tonight, and you are going to replace me to do it!”
Huzi scolded him with a smile and said jokingly.
“No, Huzi, you can’t go to Shengzeyuan Restaurant. I’ve received the news that someone is going to trouble the brother-in-law tonight.”
Li Zhe heaved a sigh and holding the shoulder of Huzi, whispered in his ear.
Ding Ning had very sharp ears. Hearing this, he was stunned and then eavesdropped quietly.
“Who the fuck is the person with the courage to trouble the brother-in-law?”
Hearing these words, Huzi became angry but asked in a low voice.
“Who else can he be? You know, that man swore to marry nobody except Big Sister. When the brother-in-law was in Ninghai, he couldn’t do anything, but when the brother-in-law is now in Yan Jing, do you think he will miss the chance?”
Li Zhe said softly but helplessly.
Huzi’s expression changed, and he clenched his fists silently and growled, “Fuck, how did he know I will hold the party in Shengzeyuan? And how did he know the brother-in-law has come?”
“Are you drunk? Shengzeyuan is the property of their family. Is it difficult for him to know that if he wants? As for how he learned the news that the brother-in-law has arrived in Yan Jing, you should take the blame. You directly shared the news on your WeChat Moments before midnight last night, and it was spread from person to person numerous times. Who doesn’t know it?”
Li Zhe rolled his eyes unhappily.
Huzi blushed and scratched his head with embarrassment. “My God, how could I forget that? Well, let’s go to another spot tonight.”
“No, let’s just go to Shengzeyuan tonight. What’s coming will come, and I have no habit to avoid anyone.”
Ding Ning’s indifferent voice came and stunned Huzi and Li Zhe.
“Brother-in-law, I know you have an excellent fighting ability, but this is Yan Jing, and the excellent fighting ability alone can’t solve the problem. Zhao Zifeng is a member of the Zhao Family! This person is domineering and has no bottom line in doing things.”
Li Zhe tried hard to persuade him. Apparently, he was extremely afraid of Zhao Zifeng.
“The Zhao Family? Is it very powerful? How many Zhao Families are there in Yan Jing?”
Ding Ning pondered silently as his eyes glinted. “I remember that the engagement the family of Shen Muqing set for her seems to be with a Zhao Family, but I don’t know if Zhao Zifeng is a member of that Zhao Family.”
“There are more than a dozen Zhao Families of different sizes in Yan Jing, but the most powerful one is Zhao Zifeng’s Zhao Family, which is in its golden time now, ranked the top among the aristocratic families.”
Li Zhe explained patiently.
“Aristocratic families?”
Ding Ning asked with a little confusion, “What aristocratic families?”
Li Zhe supported his jaw with one hand and explained helplessly, “You even don’t know aristocratic families, brother-in-law?”
“I don’t know! This is the first time I’ve come to Yan Jing. How can I know that?”
Ding Ning did not take it seriously and picked a piece of sweet and sour pork rib for Yagyuu Asamayu because she liked it.
“The powerful families in Yan Jing that are divided into four classes from the highest to the lowest are: Great Families, Aristocratic Families, Famous Families, and Prestigious Clans. The Zhao Family is ranked the top in the second class, and it is expected to turn into a Great Family. Do you think whether it is powerful or not?”
Li Zhe said patiently and kindly, hoping to persuade Ding Ning to change his idea. “Zhao Zifeng is not the successor of the owner of the Zhao Family, but he is an outstanding figure in the fourth generation of the Zhao Family. If his cousin Zhao Zilong, the first Childe in Yan Jing, were not so excellent, the owner’s position of the Zhao Family would belong to nobody but him, but the Zhao Family still values him quite much.”
Huzi kept silent on the side. According to the guide of his character, he did not want Ding Ning to withdraw; otherwise, if the small Zhao Zifeng could make Ding Ning retreat, how could he match his Big Sister?
But when he heard the name of Zhao Zilong, his complexion changed—his brows were knitted tightly.
“Zhao Zifeng and Zhao Zilong are at odds, but they are members of the Zhao Family, after all. If my brother-in-law does slap Zhao Zifeng in the face, will the Zhao Family leave the matter at that?”
Thinking of this, he changed his idea again, wanting to persuade Ding Ning not to confront Zhao Zifeng with toughness. Zhao Zifeng was not scaring, but the Zhao Family was.
