After the two exchanged contact information, Song Guowei became noticeably more enthusiastic.
He said with a beaming smile, "The Qi Family took a major hit this time. From now on, in this little patch of Jiangnan Province, they won't have the nerve to keep butting heads with me!"
"Besides, we squeezed five hundred million out of them this time. Sure, that's nothing compared to the Qi Family's total assets, but pulling out five hundred million in cash flow all at once will sting them for a while."
With that, he glanced at Ning Wangshu and added, "But that Wu Shengtian said his master would avenge him. Brother Ning, are you sure there's no problem?"
Hearing this, Ning Wangshu smiled faintly and said calmly, "Manager Song, let me put it this way—in this world, there shouldn't be anyone who can do anything to me."
"Never mind his master; even if all eighteen generations of his sect's ancestors showed up together, I could crush them all with one slap!"
"So, if his master doesn't come, fine. But if he dares to show up... heh, I wouldn't mind crippling his cultivation too!"
If this had been earlier, Song Guowei might have thought Ning Wangshu was bragging, too arrogant.
But after what had just happened, hearing Ning Wangshu say this now—though it still seemed a bit exaggerated—Song Guowei actually believed it to some extent.
"That's good! With Brother Ning's word, I can rest easy..."
Song Guowei broke into a smile.
The two chatted idly along the way, and over an hour later, they finally returned to Linchuan City.
Song Guowei specially booked a lavish feast at the city's most luxurious hotel—Junyue Hotel—and warmly hosted Ning Wangshu.
Hu Guangji was also there, but he was clearly just a side figure.
"Manager Song, if there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
After the meal, Ning Wangshu bid Song Guowei farewell.
Song Guowei quickly said, "Alright, alright, Brother Ning, take care..."
After seeing Ning Wangshu off, Song Guowei let out a light sigh and thought to himself, "I need to build a good relationship with this Brother Ning. Someday, I might need to ask him for a favor."
"Someone like this is a rare find..."
With that in mind, he immediately said to the bodyguard behind him, "Acheng, go look up some basic info on this Brother Ning for me. Once you've got it, report back right away!"
"Got it, boss!"
Acheng quickly replied.
He paused, then couldn't help asking curiously, "Boss, why do you want to check his info?"
Acheng wasn't just Song Guowei's bodyguard; he was also one of his most trusted confidants.
Seeing him ask, Song Guowei smiled and casually answered, "Nothing much. Just want to see if there's any chance to show him more goodwill."
With that, he looked at Acheng and continued, "You saw how terrifying that Wu Shengtian was today, but he couldn't even put up a fight in front of Brother Ning."
"Putting some effort into getting along with someone like that can't hurt!"
Acheng understood and nodded in agreement, "That's true!"
On the other side.
Ning Wangshu was now sitting in Zhang Yong's car, and he was in a pretty good mood too.
He'd made a full one hundred million on this trip. With that money, he and his younger sister wouldn't have to worry about spending in the mortal world for a while.
Zhang Yong, meanwhile, was driving and gushing excitedly, "Brother Ning, you're seriously amazing!"
"That Wu Shengtian was acting all high and mighty earlier, but you broke his limbs in just a few moves. That's some real dominance!"
"You should've seen it—when I looked at Qi Tianlei and his men, their eyes were wide open, totally stunned..."
Hearing this, Ning Wangshu couldn't help but chuckle.
Listening to Zhang Yong's praise all the way, Ning Wangshu only replied with a word or two now and then, but Zhang Yong seemed to enjoy it endlessly.
Before he knew it, Zhang Yong had dropped Ning Wangshu off at the neighborhood.
Before Ning Wangshu could even push the door open to get out, Zhang Yong had already hurried over to open it for him, looking a bit like a lackey...
"Brother Ning, I'll head off then. If you need anything, just call me anytime..."
Zhang Yong said with a bow and a nod.
His attitude toward Ning Wangshu was clearly even more respectful than before.
Ning Wangshu smiled and nodded slightly, saying, "Alright, thanks for going out of your way to drive me back today, Manager Zhang."
"No trouble at all, hehe!"
Zhang Yong grinned, said his goodbyes to Ning Wangshu again, and then drove off.
Back home, Ning Wangshu checked the time. It was already around four in the afternoon. After a moment's thought, he decided to transfer another one million directly to his younger sister's bank card.
With a full one hundred million in his account now, that paltry one million was just pocket money for her...
Not long after, Ning Wangshu received a WeChat message from his younger sister: "Brother, why did you transfer another one million to me?"
Ning Wangshu smiled slightly and replied right away, "That's your pocket money."
"Pocket money? This... this is way too much. How could I ever use that much pocket money!"
"Bro, let me send it back to you. That's so much money, I can't even use it. It's better if you keep it. You already sent me two hundred thousand before, and I haven't even touched it!"
Ning Ruoxuan's reply came quickly.
"It's fine. From now on, if you want to buy anything, just go ahead. Your brother isn't short on pocket change anymore!"
After sending that message, Ning Wangshu typed another: "I went out today and made a hundred million! So the money I'm giving you, just spend it however you want."
"A hundred million???"
"Oh my god, that's... that's way too crazy! Bro, what did you do to make a hundred million???"
Ning Ruoxuan was clearly stunned.
Ning Wangshu smiled as he replied: "Nothing much. I just helped Boss Yi out. We agreed on a fifty million fee, but he threw in another fifty million as a thank-you."
"..."
Ning Ruoxuan only sent back an ellipsis.
In fact, sitting in her classroom, she was so shocked her mouth hung open, and she didn't know what to say.
A hundred million!
She couldn't even imagine how much money that was.
To her, it was an astronomical figure she wouldn't dare dream of.
Yet her brother had made that much just by helping someone out...
Seeing that his sister hadn't replied for a while, Ning Wangshu added: "Alright, you're probably in class right now, right? Let's not chat too much. Focus on your lessons and review."
"After your finals are over, I'll take you out for some good food, or wherever you want to go..."
"Hmm hmm, okay!"
Seeing Ning Wangshu's message come through, Ning Ruoxuan quickly replied.
But inside, her heart was still churning.
Her brother was now a billionaire...
