My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Zhou Zhilei’s expression turned cold immediately. She was icy and sharp as she said, “Heh.” She snorted coldly and took two steps forward to get closer to Ning Qing. “Should I allow you to enter the red wine competition? Then can you compensate for the pain that I have gone through?”

As she spoke, Zhou Zhilei stretched out her hand to tug the collar of her black attire. Her chest area below her collarbones wsd exposed in front of Ning Qing.

Ning Qing had a look, and she lifted her eyebrows.

Zhou Zhilei’s skin was bruised and injured. There were ugly burn marks on it, and her skin looked extremely unsightly.

Zhou Zhilei’s expression became constricted, there was a deep feeling of hate in her eyes. “Did you know how I made it through this period of time? There is no piece of skin that is not injured on my entire body. My mum sent me to Korea for plastic surgery. I had plastic surgery on my entire body. During this period of time, I went through numerous surgeries, but I am still unable to regain the skin that I once had. I am unable to go back, and I have to live on like this for my entire life. I am not a person, yet I am also not a ghost!

“Also.” Zhou Zhilei lifted her pants up, exposing her prosthetic. “My right leg got amputated. I need to rely on this thing to walk. I have become disabled…

“The reason why I have turned this way is all because of you. What abilities do you have to be standing before me right now? When you are the reason behind all this mess, and you want to participate in the red wine competition, I only have three words for you: it’s not possible!”

Ning Qing calmly looked at Zhou Zhilei’s crazy and constricted expression. She really did not pity this woman at all.

Zhou Zhilei observed Zhou Heng’ expression on his face.

Zhou Heng hesitated for a moment, before he said, “Zhilei, we will discuss this in the future.”

Zhou Zhilei clenched her teeth. This old thing that has yet to die!

But she did not lash out. Dhe could only look around her surroundings, and she asked caringly, “Grandfather, where is Grandma? I heard that Grandma came back to the country together with you this time. Why don’t I see Grandma anywhere?”

“Oh, your grandma felt that the air was stale here so she didn’t come in. She is taking a breather outside.”

…

Ning Qing walked out of the main hall. She walked onto the small stone lined path outside.

She was making a call. It was to Xiao Zhou. “…Yeah, Zhou Zhilei objects to me participating in the red wine competition…”

Xiao Zhou was furious as she cursed out loudly, “This Zhou Zhilei is so shameless. Who in T City does not know that she is a pair of broken shoes? She is still not embarrassed to come out to do these things. I think that Young Master Lu was too benevolent in the past. He should not have allowed her to survive.”

“Xiao Zhou.” Ning Qing laughed sweetly. “You cannot speak like this. The Zhou and Lu families have been friends for generations. Grandpa Zhou has treated Shaoming as his own grandson since he was a boy. Zhou Zhilei is the only successor of the Zhou family winery. If Shaoming did not give Zhou Zhilei the chance to survive, it would’ve been a waste of Grandpa Zhou’s life… Furthermore, Zhou Zhilei really quite pathetic right now.”

“Forget it.” Xiao Zhou sighed. “Ning Qing, you just do not bear to let me say a single bad word about Young Master Lu. Look at you protect him like this.”

Ning Qing did not reply. Her beautiful maroon lips were curled up high, with her eyebrows up in a curve.

This period of time could be considered to be the lovey dovey period between Ning Qing and Lu Shaoming.

Furthermore, he wanted to have a daughter. He diligently brought it up whenever he could.

“Ning Qing, we are talking about serious matters. Zhou Zhilei did not allow you to participate in the red wine competition. What do you plan to do next?”

Ning Qing laughed, her voice was casual as she said, ” Did you think that I wouldn’t participate in the competition just because she did not allow me to join? They all said that it takes a thousand days to train the army. When we deploy the soldiers, we will do it like this…”

Ning Qing revealed the plan in her heart to Ning Qing.

Xiao Zhou was shocked. “Ning Qing, you are really too smart. You never fail to surprise me.”

Ning Qing was a little delighted as she said, “That is a must.”

At this moment, Ning Qing turned her gaze sideways. She unintentionally saw a figure on the grass patch a distance away from her. It was a side profile. It was a senior old grandmother who sat in a wheelchair.

The grandmother cast her gaze downwards. She held something firmly in her hands, she was looking at it carefully, just as if it was her life.

Ning Qing looked on in a blur. She did not know why, but there was a sudden onset of depression that came into her heart, or maybe it was because the grandmother’s shadow was overly slim. She had a head of white hair and looked extremely pathetic.

At this moment, a huge gust of wind blew past. The thing in the Grandma’s hands flew out, and the wind was too strong. That thing was blown a few metres away by the big gust of wind.

Ning Qing looked at the grandma who looked extremely shocked. She was shocked as she called out, “Dou Dou…Dou Dou…”

The grandma used both of her hands to push the wheelchair, but she was unable to move the wheelchair because the brakes were engaged.

“Hello, Xiao Zhou, we will speak again another time. I have to hang up…” Ning Qing ended the phone call hurriedly. She lifted her heels to run towards the thing that flew out of the grandmother’s hands.

The grandmother was in a hurry herself, but she was unable to move her wheelchair. She moved her numb body slowly, and she almost fell completely from the wheelchair onto the ground.

But at this moment, a lithe and playful figure suddenly came into her line of vision. A girl has come along to help her chase after the thing.

The grandmother froze.

Ning Qing ran forward, and when she approached the thing, it was only then that she realized the thing on the ground was a red amulet. It was probably taken from a temple. It had gold stamps on it. Once she had a look at it, she could see that it was a precious and luxurious thing. It was just a little old, and it probably had a long history behind it.

She was running in a hurry. Because the wind was too strong, she was afraid that the amulet would be blown away again, and that grandma was anxious.

When she brushed against the stone block, she did not take much notice. There was a piercing pain on the side of her thigh as she lowered her gaze to have a look. It was only then that she realized her right thigh had a wound on it, and it was bleeding.

Ning Qing controlled the pain as she ran over. She bent her body down and stretched out her two small hand to pick up the amulet.

There was a word embroidered on the amulet — Dou.

It was probably the name of the person the grandma was murmuring.

Ning Qing stood up and walked in the direction of the grandma.

After she came to the grandma’s side, Ning Qing realized that this grandma was extremely skinny. The grandma seemed to be mentally unstable. Both of her eyes were sunken in. She looked elderly, but from her features, Ning Qing could tell that she had been beautiful and gentle when she was younger.

Like a girl from the South River.

Just like her own mother.

In her heart, Ning Qing had good feelings towards this grandmother. She walked over, and bent down. She gave her the amulet with both hands. “Grandmother, do you want to pick this up? Here it is.”
