"Everything stupid’s been done by you alone; what else is she supposed to do?" Chen Huaying rubbed her temples irritably, her mind was also a complete mess.
She had never imagined that Sheng Ning would have a connection with the Su Family, which was a complete surprise to her. This identity was incredibly impressive, easily able to overshadow Hai Lan.
Her mind still felt foggy.
Someone knocked on the door outside. Chen Huaying looked and saw it was an official.
It was probably someone sent by the Su Family.
"Hello, we are here on behalf of President Su Jiang to retrieve the bracelet." The visitor didn’t come in but stood at the door, very polite in their approach.
President Su Jiang acted fast; even from thousands of miles away he seemed to be instantly aware of the situation here.
"Please wait a moment."
Chen Huaying turned back to her room, approached Sheng Ning, and waved her hand in front of her face, but she didn’t react at all, just kept knitting her sweater.
The ball of yarn was visibly diminishing with her rapid movements.
"Sheng Ning, Sheng Ning..."
"Can you hear me? Are you okay?"
"The Su Family is here for the bracelet. What are you going to do? Will you give it to them?"
After asking for a long time with no response from Sheng Ning, Chen Huaying decided to find the bracelet with Lu Dabao and handed it over to the person who had come to collect it.
Receiving the bracelet, the visitor was so excited they nearly lost control.
"May I ask if Comrade Sheng Ning is well? May I see her?" The visitor asked with concern.
"She’s not well, but you can’t see her. You’ve got what you came for; what else do you want?"
"Sorry, in that case, we will take our leave. Please take care of Comrade Sheng Ning. President Su will surely be very grateful."
Clearly, in this short period, the Su Family had made their judgment and showed their stance to the outside world.
"Don’t worry, even without President Su’s gratitude, we would have done it."
"Thank you! It’s truly a relief that Comrade Sheng Ning has friends like you."
Chen Huaying really wanted to make a sarcastic remark but held back when she remembered the person was sent by Su Jiang.
After sending the visitor off, Lu Dabao was a bundle of nerves.
"Chen Huaying, we gave the item away without Sheng Ning’s consent; could that cause problems?"
"What else could we do?" Chen Huaying said sarcastically, "Could we refuse someone sent by President Su Jiang?"
"Right! Since we couldn’t refuse, we had no choice but to hand over the item. I have a feeling trouble is coming. You stay here and watch Sheng Ning, don’t let her do anything foolish. I’m going to find Liu Yilan; she has plenty of cunning schemes, and then I’ll notify the Living Yama."
"Sure! Leave it to me!" Lu Dabao, feeling guilty about past mistakes and now eager to make amends, immediately reassured Chen Huaying with a thump to her chest.
"Keep a close eye on her. If any trouble happens, I’ll hold you accountable."
Chen Huaying left the dorm and headed straight for the communication center. Upon entering, she immediately spotted Zhu Yu sitting amongst a clutter of telephones and telegraphs.
"Zhu Yu, I need you to make a call for me."
"What happened?" Zhu Yu had been ready to give her a hard time but seeing the gravity on Chen Huaying’s face, she stepped aside without fuss.
"Thank you!" Coming from a big complex, Chen Huaying knew the special internal means of communication very well. She quickly dialed the number, "Hello, please connect me to Captain Xu’s office at the War Wolf Rescue Team."
"Looking for the Living Yama?" Zhu Yu looked at her, astonished.
