806: The Last Group Of People

The Last Group Of People

Yang Min was stunned and smiled. "It's nothing. It's just a migraine; an old problem. That's the reason I couldn't remain in the special forces and became a diplomatic ambassador instead."1

"Outstanding people shine wherever they go."

There was a hint of loneliness in Yang Min's eyes. "Yet, I owe my family."

Zhong Nuannuan smiled and did not try to comfort her anymore.

After all, if she had to be separated from Chi Yang and meet only once a year, she just could not do it.

Therefore, she felt like she should not continue on this topic.

Zhong Nuannuan chatted with Yang Min for a while before turning to look at Old Master Wu. "Old Master Wu, the elevator is operating normally. You and Miss Wu should leave on the third trip down."

Wu Maosong wanted to say that he wanted to follow Zhong Nuannuan, but he swallowed his words.

Instead, he nodded and replied, "Alright, then Pingting and I will head down first. Both of you shouldn't delay for too long."

Zhong Nuannuan nodded. "Okay. Don't worry. The elevator is operating normally. Everything will be fine."

"Okay."

On the other side, Ling Pinyuan also said to Luo Mengying, "The people left upstairs are all young people now. You should leave on the next elevator."

Luo Mengying's expression had been terrible since the beginning. She stubbornly rejected Ling Pinyuan's offer.

"No."

"Mengying, this is not the time for you to act out. Listen to me and take the next elevator."

"No!" Luo Mengying denied Ling Pinyuan again.

"Peng Yaohua, that old fox, said that my father was a traitor, so I must show them that I'm the last one to go down. My father only has one child, and if he's truly a traitor, will he let me, his daughter, the last one to go down the elevator?"

Ling Pinyuan had always remained close to Luo Mengying. Despite looking docile and gentle, Ling Pinyuan knew how stubborn Luo Mengying could be. At the same time, she was convinced that Deputy Commander Luo could not be the mole, so she nodded and said, "Alright, up to you. When the time comes, you'll follow me down."

Tears welled up in Luo Mengying's eyes as she nodded silently.

The elevator went up and down once more.

When the elevator came up for the last time, there were only 11 people left.

Apart from Zhong Nuannuan, Selina, Old Master Chi, Ling Pinyuan, Yang Min, and Luo Mengying, there were five other people.

Since everyone who went in the elevator had already reached the ground safely, those who remained were no longer afraid.

After they entered the elevator, a wealthy lady even handed Zhong Nuannuan her name card.

"Miss Sunny, I'm from the Liang family of Z District. Our main business is jewelry, jade, real estate, and hotels. If you intend to collaborate with us, I can get my husband to talk to you about it, Miss Sunny"

Zhong Nuannuan smiled and said, "Thank you, but there's no need. I like doing business alone, and I don't like working with others."

When Mrs. Liang heard this, she felt that Zhong Nuannuan was just finding an excuse to brush her off. She was instantly displeased.

"Miss Zhong's rejection seems a little too absolute. If I were from an average family, I wouldn't have the courage to come to you and ask for a collaboration. However, the Liang family is a second-tier wealthy family in Z District. Z District is different from an inland state like H District, and it's even more different from the wealthy families in a small city like Jiang District. Z District is a coastal state. I'm sure Miss Zhong can ask around about our Liang family's status in Z District. I'm not saying this to show off, but nobody is spared from having a hard time when doing business. Furthermore, collaboration can cut down on risk, am I right?"
