CHAPTER 635 MIND GAMES

"That's right, his name is Jiang Ning and he's been making waves everywhere." Long Ling'er's secretary was surprised that her boss looked so happy. Just this one man could make her smile? "Miss Long, do you know him?"

Long Ling'er didn't answer her question.

Of course she knew Jiang Ning. She knew him since she was a child!

But was this Jiang Ning the same Jiang Ning she knew? She hoped he didn't just have the same name.

"Tell me, what does he look like and where does he come from? Is he from the north?"

Long Ling'er was going to jump out of her seat when she heard this name.

She had just come from her own house and confirmed that her family really didn't oppose the engagement, even if Jiang Ning had already been thrown out of his family and had become an abandoned child.

But she didn't care.

"He's not from the north. Apparently he used to be a homeless man with mental issues."

Long Ling'er was even more excited now. But her heart also went out to him.

She had heard about how Jiang Ning was thrown out of the Jiang house and had to wander the streets. Even his mother had died because she couldn't get her illness treated in time.

It was Jiang Ning!

She was sure it was him.

"But now it seems he has married into his wife's family to wash away their family's bad luck or something." The secretary had a look of disdain on her face. "A grown man with arms and legs decided to marry into his wife's family? What a disgrace."

She didn't notice the change in Long Ling'er's expression and continued to mutter on, "Nobody would look up to a man like that. Miss Long, so many people are laughing at him."

"From now on," Long Ling'er expression had suddenly darkened. She glared at her secretary as if she was an angry lioness. "You're fired!"

The secretary was in shock and couldn't react.

"Miss Long..."

Long Ling'er ignored her.

Who dared to say anything bad about Jiang Ning?

She wouldn't allow it. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Long Ling'er didn't hesitate at all. She booked a plane ticket immediately and went to Donghai.

She was going to confirm if he was that man she knew.

After she left the north, Jiang Daoran heard about it.

"Master, Miss Long has gone to Donghai already. I'm afraid it's going to be difficult to keep this secret," said Jiang Hai a little worriedly.

The Long family didn't oppose Long Ling'er marrying Jiang Ning anymore even though they were the ones who called it off back then in the first place. So they must have guessed something.

"Tsk, some things are fake and some things are real. Sometimes the real thing looks even more like a fake,” said Jiang Daoran with bright eyes. "Do you think the Long family knows? They're just trying to sound him out. They're not sure, and so they let Ling'er go to Donghai."

The Long family would naturally think that no matter what Jiang Ning looked like now, Long Ling'er would be able to recognize him.

Jiang Hai was surprised. "Master, you have something prepared?" "I don't need to prepare anything," scoffed Jiang Daoran. "Jiang Ning is an intelligent boy. He's chased the Tan family away on the surface, but he's secretly placed another piece on this chess board. This little punk is getting better and better at this."

Of course he knew that Jiang Ning would have made preparations and wouldn't reveal his own identity so easily.

Jiang Ning knew how to hide himself at least until he had found out who that mysterious man was.

Even though he had revealed some of his ability so as to make people guess, the more real something was and the more seamless something was would make those who thought themselves as very clever even more suspicious.

Human nature was such.

And someone who could see through human nature and use it to his benefit like Jiang Ning were the most terrifying.

"Jiang Hai.'

"Yes, Master."

"Jiang Ning will settle Donghai himself. What you have to do is to keep a eye on those supremely powerful families of the north!”

Jiang Hai immediately nodded.

"The Long family in particular!" Jiang Daoran whispered. "You understand?"

"I understand, don't worry."

Jiang Daoran nodded and didn't say anymore. He let Jiang Hai attend to these matters.

Very few people knew what happened back then.

Someone who could hold himself back for a few decades was indeed very terrifying. But once he had put everything in place and was ready to make his move, probably nobody could stop him.

But who was that person? Even Jiang Daoran didn't know at all.

Jiang Ning's plan had started from the illegal circle of Donghai and was slowly challenging that mysterious man. If he couldn't sit still anymore, then he was going to make a move soon.

The moment he revealed the slightest bit about himself, Jiang Ning was going to dig him right out!
