Chapter 17
Lin Yuzhen exhaled deeply after the meeting was over.
Even she herself didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
These project managers had been difficult to work with during her last few visits.
She looked at Jiang Ning who was standing at the door. He must have frightened them earlier. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"You guys keep a close eye on this side, let me know first thing if anything happens."
Lin Yuzhen finished her instructions and walked out.
She saw that Jiang Ning kept staring at her and she started blushing, returning to her shy little girl self again.
"Why do you keep looking at me?"
"You're pretty," replied Jiang Ning.
My goodness, did this uncle always praise others so directly?
Did homeless people rely on having a glib tongue to get food?
Riiiinnngg...
Lin Yuzhen's phone started ringing.
She took it out. It was Sumei.
"Mum, what is it?"
She immediately heard the pitiful crying of her mother on the other side and her face instantly darkened. "Mum! What happened? Who hit you? I'll be there in a minute!"
Lin Yuzhen's eyes were bloodshot. "Someone hit my mum!"
Jiang Ning immediately frowned. "Get into the car!"
Vrooooom!
The engine of the BMW resounded loudly like it was angry too. Jiang Ning made a sharp turn and headed for the bank.
On the way, Lin Yuzhen couldn't help but start crying.
"My mum has never been bullied so badly before, she's such a strong person..."
Sumei had been detained by the bank and they accused her of stealing. How could this be?
Even if her family had to die hungry from their poverty, they would never stoop this low.
"Even my dad can't bear to scold her.
Someone actually had the guts to hit her."
Jiang Ning didn't say a word, and stepped the accelerator harder.
Back at the general manager's office in the bank.
Sumei's hair was all messed up and there were still those finger marks on her face. After she hung up, she didn't say anymore but continued to cry.
If your family can't explain this, then we will have no choice but to call the police," the general manager told her coldly.
BANG!
Just as he finished speaking, the office door was kicked open. The door nearly broke into several pieces!
“Who are you!"
The two security guards saw that they had a violent guest and took out their Tasers.
PAK!
PAK!
Jiang Ning didn't care and gave the guards a slap each. Both guards flew from the impact.
The general manager and teller went pale from fright. "Security! Where are the security guards! Call everyone in!”
Jiang Ning simply went forward and grabbed the general manager by the collar, his face icy cold. "This is my mother! And you dared to hit her!"
The general manager was trembling. He didn't expect this auntie's son to be this violent.
"Your mum stole something and you dare to make trouble! Call the police, quick...
AHH!"
The teller hadn't even finished speaking when Jiang Ning gave her a slap. Her mouth was instantly filled with blood.
That fierce look on Jiang Ning made the general manager shake in fear!
"Stole something?"
Jiang Ning took one look at the card in the general manager's hands. Wasn't that his?
"You mean this card?"
The general manager swallowed and nodded.
"I gave it to her to buy groceries. Is there a problem?"
The general manager couldn't help but laugh coldly when he heard what Jiang Ning said. "Do you know what sort of card this is? Buy groceries? What nonsense!"
This sort of special card required the card owner to have a billion dollars in the bank. Who used a card like that to buy groceries?
Did he think he had made it as a bank manager by daydreaming?
Jiang Ning loosened his grip and took out his phone. He quickly dialed a foreign number and there was a voice on the other side in no time.
"Get your bank union CEO on the phone now!"
The call was put through quickly. Jiang Ning snorted coldly, "Theseus, looks like I'm not eligible to use these cards you sent me? A mere bank manager of one of your subsidiaries is questioning me?"
The moment he heard what Jiang Ning said, the Caucasian man on the other end of the line immediately shuddered. He signaled to his staff to use GPS to locate Jiang Ning.
"Mr Jiang! I am very sorry about this! I will settle this for you right now!”
Jiang Ning hung up the phone and walked over to Sumei.
"Mum, I'm sorry, it's my fault this happened to you."
Sumei still did not say a word.
Lin Yuzhen was panting when she ran into the office. She saw Sumei had cried her eyes out and felt her heart ache, and ran over to hug her.
"Mum, it's ok, it's ok!"
A few dozen security guards had already surrounded the general manager's office.
"Manager! Call the police! Arrest them all!" the teller shrieked as she covered her face.
But the general manager's face was
ashen.
He saw the number that Jiang Ning had called earlier. That was the global bank union's VIP customer service hotline...
Riinnngg!
In no time, the office phone rang and the general manager felt his body shudder.
He looked at Jiang Ning but Jiang Ning didn't bother about him.
"Hello?”
The general manager picked up the phone with some hesitation, and his face paled even more. "President Xue!"
"Are you freaking blind? You dare to question a VIP guest of the bank union? I don't want to die even if you want to! I'm going to retire soon but now I might be fired! Damn you!"
The other party angrily cursed at him. "If you don't settle this properly, I'll kill you!" The moment he hung up, the branch manager called and scolded him so hard, wishing he could come out from the phone and bite the general manager to death!
The general manager couldn't hear what his manager was saying anymore. His entire mind was now empty and had exploded.
VIP guest of the bank union?
Jiang Ning said earlier that it was the union CEO who personally sent this card to him?
GULP.
He couldn't help but gulp, then started coughing violently.
Doomed!
He was doomed!
"Manager...do we still call the police?" The teller was still trying to instigate him.
'Call the police?"
The general manager swung around and slapped the teller hard on the face. "Call the police my foot! Who treats a VIP customer like you do!”
The teller yelped and fell onto the floor as a tooth went flying out. But she didn't dare to say anymore.
Thud!
The general manager immediately fell to his knees, "I'm sorry! I'm very sorry! It's my fault! All this is my fault!"
"I failed to realize who you were and I looked down on you!”
He slapped himself repeatedly. "I hope you can forgive me, please forgive me!"
Jiang Ning still couldn't be bothered. The iciness on his face sent chills through the general manager's entire body!
He knew that if this auntie didn't forgive him, he would have to die here!
This was a VIP customer of the bank union, and this card was sent personally by the CEO even. Nowhere in the world would anybody dare to offend a customer like that.
"Auntie, this is my fault, I'm very sorry, you can hit me or scold me, but please give me a chance! I beg you!"
The general manager crawled to where Sumei was and started to kowtow to her. His forehead started bleeding almost instantly.
"Auntie, please let me off, I have a family to take care of and I really can't get into trouble. I will bear all responsibility otherwise, but please I beg you to let me off."
Sumei looked at this incredibly pitiful looking general manager. He wasn't like that just now.
She was very tired and feeling very upset. She had never been humiliated like this before.
"Yuzhen, I want to go home."
"Mum, I'll bring you home."
Lin Yuzhen glanced at Jiang Ning. He nodded and she left with Sumei.
All the security guards at the door immediately made way for them and didn't dare to block them at all.
Who dared to now?
Their general manager was still kneeling on the floor!
"Who slapped my mum just now?”
Jiang Ning waited until Lin Yuzhen and Sumei left before asking.
The guilty security guard had just managed to get up from the floor and his face paled immediately. He felt like his heart was going to stop!
"Whichever hand you used, break it yourself. Don't trouble me to do it for you."
Jiang Ning only threw him a glance, then turned and left.
The moment he walked out of the office door, there was a loud crack from inside, followed by a blood curdling scream...
