Chapter 13: Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand Wang Jingsheng's eyes rolled around, and he believed Ning Weidong's words of borrowing money, but he did not agree immediately. Ning Weidong was not in a hurry. At this point, he has done everything he can, and whether things succeed or not is not something he can control. After a moment, Wang Jingsheng pursed his lips and said, "Um... Dongzi, our family's money is in An Ning's hands. I'll discuss it with her." Ning Weidong nodded, watched Wang Jingsheng go to the inner room, and closed the door behind him. An Ning was sitting on the kang near the door, reading a book called "Contemporary Literature". Hearing the sound of the door, he raised his head and cast a questioning look. Wang Jingsheng sat down, lowered his voice slightly, and quickly and concisely explained the situation. After he was done, he asked, "Xiao Ning, what do you think we should do in this situation?" An Ning stroked the magazine in her hand, frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then asked, "How credible do you think he is?"
Wang Jingsheng said: "If it was before... this guy was just a fool, he was a man of his word, but now... I can't say what he has been like in the countryside for these years. But Qi Jia should have those things..." After listening to Wang Jingsheng, An Ning raised his hand and rubbed his chin, and said thoughtfully: "In that case... then agree, but don't give the money yet. Wait until tomorrow to ask someone if he works at the Red Star Factory and if his brother works at the Machinery Bureau. If it's true, lend him the money. You don't have to worry about him not paying it back. If that doesn't work, ask his brother." Wang Jingsheng nodded quickly. An Ning's eyes turned cold, and he continued, "If it turns out to be fake, we don't have to be polite. He was the one who lied first, but it doesn't mean we don't care about friendship." Wang Jingsheng was quite obedient to his wife. Although he graduated from junior high school, he only had an elementary school level and did not study well in middle school. An Ning was a serious high school student, and an outstanding one in the high school, with an absolutely smart brain. Then they both came out from the inner room together. An Ning had been hiding before, giving them space to talk, but now there was no need to hide in the inner room. When he came out, he smiled and said, "Brother Weidong, Jingsheng just told me. You are brothers. If you encounter difficulties, we will definitely help you. We don't have that much money at home. Wait until tomorrow and ask him to send it." Ning Weidong immediately thanked her, "Sister-in-law, you are so generous." Wang Jingsheng and his wife made their attitude clear, Ning Weidong could no longer play dumb, and continued: "Sister-in-law, Lao Wang, I'm not lending you this money for nothing..." Wang Jingsheng and An Ning are both smart people. They knew something useful was coming as soon as they heard it. Ning Weidong asked, "Did they go to Brother Qi's house to look for something?" When we say "they", actually Wang Jingsheng is also among them. Wang Jingsheng nodded quickly. Ning Weidong smiled: "In fact, he has a secret base near Brother Qi's house!" Wang Jingsheng and An Ning were both slightly moved. It's not like no one had doubted this possibility before, as everyone knows that a cunning rabbit has three burrows. But guesses are just guesses, no matter how reasonable they are, they are useless without clues. But now Ning Weidong is speaking with certainty.
Wang Jingsheng was so excited that he blurted out, "Where is it?" without thinking. An Ning rolled her eyes at him, disdainful of him for asking such a stupid question, but the thought flashed away. If Ning Weidong really knew the exact location, why would he come here in the dark just to borrow a hundred dollars? Ning Weidong only knows some clues at most. The next moment, Wang Jingsheng reacted, scratched the back of his head, and smiled awkwardly: "Well..." Ning Weidong looked at the clock on the high and low cabinet, stood up and said, "It's getting late. I have a mid-shift tomorrow and I have nothing to do during the day. Let's talk about it in detail." "Oh~No..." Wang Jingsheng was so itchy that Ning Weidong was actually leaving. He almost cursed in his heart. In fact, Wang Jingsheng's family is rich, but since An Ning said so just now, he has to endure it. He put on a coat with a dry smile and followed Ning Weidong out: "Please ride slowly." "Sister-in-law, why are you still out? It's quite cold, go back quickly~" Ning Weidong unlocked the car and waved to Wang Jingsheng and his wife. "I'll see Dongzi off." Wang Jingsheng followed and walked Ning Weidong out until he reached the gate of the courtyard. He only turned back after he saw the man ride away on his bike. When I got home, An Ning was cleaning up the peanut shells on the table. Wang Jingsheng hung his coat on the hanger at the door, sat down next to the eight-immortal table with a troubled look on his face, took a sip of the already cold tea, and asked An Ning: "What do you think?" As An Ning packed up, she said calmly, "What's the big deal? It's only a hundred bucks." Wang Jingsheng said: "I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about Qi Jiazui's that." An Ning used a poke to collect the peanut shells and placed them at the door. She clapped her hands and said, "It's hard to say. This is the first time I've met Ning Weidong today. I don't know his temperament, but... based on first impressions alone, I think there's about a 60 to 70 percent chance of success." Wang Jingsheng frowned: "Oh?" An Ning said calmly, "First of all, he came here today with sufficient preparation. He thinks carefully and speaks in a very organized way. The rhythm and topic of your conversation were all under his control from beginning to end..." "Is there?" Wang Jingsheng blinked. An Ning rolled her eyes at him and continued, "There's no point in thinking about this now. Let's just wait until tomorrow to find someone to confirm the situation. If it's true, just send the money over and then see what he has. If it's fake..." Having said that, An Ning snorted softly, and a sinister and vicious look flashed across her beautiful almond-shaped eyes. (End of this chapter)
