Chapter 159 Insight

Ding Ning received Ling Yun’s message on his way. The content in her message left him feeling helpless and annoyed.

“My mum is in a bad mood today. I’ll accompany her to bed tonight. I have my period now, so we can’t have sex anyway. Go find a place to sleep yourself.”

Ding Ning stuck out his tongue and replied, “I’ll go find a place with hot girls to sleep.”

“Go on, go on. But that hot girl must be able to make the bed and blanket, do the laundry and cooking, plus be able to massage. This kind of girl will be able to serve me in the future.”

It seemed like Ling Yun was on her way to find a maid who could sleep with her and Ding Ning together everyday.

“You must be dreaming!”

Ding Ning suddenly realized that he seemed to be homeless. Although he had left the small home in Ling Yun’s house, he still genuinely thought it home.

“Sigh. It seems like there was a need to speed up the process of buying a house. Tomorrow will be the day to withdraw some money from Stone-gambling House.”

“But before that, there’s a need to get the wolf kid out of the trunk of Bai Qing’s car.”

Following Xiaojin’s orders, Ding Ning rapidly drove towards the Banwan Villa. He didn’t think that Bai Qing also lived in the Banwan Villa. What a coincidence.

But to think about it, it was still reasonable. The Banwan Villa was a villa zone in where lived rich people. With Bai Qing’s status, it’s not a surprise that he lived there.

Afraid of the surveillance team picking up on clues of his presence, Ding Ning did not dare to park his car in the Banwan Villa. He found a nearby house to park his car in. Taking advantage of the night, Ding Ning rushed directly towards Bai Qing’s villa.

Number Zero Villa? Ding Ning was silently surprised. He did not think that the Banwan Villa had such a number.

Silently entering the villa, Ding Ning finally discovered what was different about Number Zero Villa. It wasn’t a villa at all; it would be more accurate to call it a manor.

Swimming pool, racecourse, carpark, gym, a mini-golf field, houses on water, wood bridges, rockery, pavilion, bamboo woods, lawn, vegetable field, pond, and a huge forest that maintained natural scenery.

The place was so huge. If not for Xiaojin’s directions, Ding Ning would have been lost. Shen Muqing’s number sixteen villa seemed so huge and spacious already. When compared with Bai Qing’s villa, number sixteen villa seemed insignificant.

He also realized that this villa seemed very peaceful, but in reality, it had tight security with at least a hundred men. Judging by their silent, stable, and subtle breathing sound, it was evident that none of them was mediocre. Although they were not as strong as Shen Muqing’s four bodyguards, they were definitely not ordinary.

This villa was five times bigger than other villas. It could be taken as a manor. And there was a huge bunch of strong bodyguards, what exactly was Bai Qing? For the first time, Ding Ning was curious about him.

However, it was not the time to discover his identity. Ding Ning quietly crept into the carpark, used two thin metal strings to open the trunk of the car, and got the wolf kid out. Ding Ning then carried the wolf kid and quickly left the villa.

He removed his fake skin and recovered his original appearance before waking up the wolf kid. This time, he did not pretend. He just wore a black mask and looked at the wolf kid who had a confused gaze. He said softly,

“You’re free now. Leave Ning Hai and don’t ever fell into those gangs again.”

Wolf kid’s gaze was soft. He suddenly said ashamedly, “You… you are a good guy. I’m… called… Ye Tianlang.”

“Ye Tianlang, that’s a good name. Leave now, I should be leaving too. Don’t kill people whenever you want, that’s not good.”

Ding Ning waved his hand. He felt secure about Ye Tianlang’s safety. If it was not for that rough metal iron chain which limited his speed and range, eighty people would not be able to harm him, not to mention eight people.

He was just like a wolf. He was fit to roam about in the wilderness but not suitable for the metal and concrete city life.

“I will remember you.” Ye Tianlang looked deeply into his eyes and left quietly into the darkness. The speed at which he left astonished even a person like Ding Ning.

“Master, Xiaohei discovered the tracks of the red car that followed you.”

A brainwave sent by Xiaojin entered his mind, startling Ding Ning’s consciousness.

He was extremely curious about that red Ferrari that was following him. His instincts told him that they weren’t Qin Canglan’s people. But he was still curious who they were exactly.

With a speedy fake makeover, he restored the dressing of the masked man. He parked his car into the western yard and followed Xiaohei’s orders to head west.

Ding Ning had passed this road when he visited Gusu before. He had to cross a deserted mountain on his journey. Although there were mountain pathways, it was very hard for cars to traverse.

Ding Ning was silently curious about why a Ferrari would come here. As he quietly approached the car, he heard two ladies’ boisterous chatting and could not help but laugh silently to himself.

Obviously, they were just two common people. They could not be people sent by the mystic group. Why would they follow himself?

“Mosquito, what time is it now?”

The temperature was beginning to get low in September night. The two ladies dressed in light clothes. Xiaoyao was cold and hungry and asked weakly.

“How am I supposed to know? My phone ran out of battery. The battery of the car would die any time.”

Mosquito was not any better than Xiaoyao. In this pitch black and deserted wilderness, hunger and coldness was not their prime fear. It was the uncertainty that was the source of their fear.

“If I knew this, I would have worn a watch. Usually, I find that troublesome. I have so many watches lying on my cupboard, sleeping soundly. No matter where we go in the future, I’ll wear them.”

Xiaoyao said with regret.

“What’s the point in knowing the time? Can a road-blind person like you find the way back?”

Mosquito angrily scolded her.

“How was I supposed to know that Ning Hai has such a deserted place? I had no intent to do this. Knowing the time let us know how long it’ll be until sunrise. I’m so cold now, and I’m so hungry.”

Xiaoyao said as if she was wronged.

“I’m also cold. I’m also hungry. But honestly, even if we were to die of hunger, I’ll definitely die earlier than you.”

“Huh, why?” Xiaoyao’s expression was full of suspicion.

“You can live for three days just on the fat in your chest.” Mosquito joked cheekily.

Xiaoyao rolled her eyes, “You’re just jealous, hmph! Mosquito, I’ve drunk so much water, and I really want to pee.”

“If you want to pee then just go. You can’t be expecting me to help you pee.”

Mosquito rolled her eyes grumpily.

“I’m just scared. What if there’s some ghost or devil…”

“Stop, stop. You’ve got me. You’ve really touched the tender spot. The more I fear you, the more energy you have. I’ll accompany you, ok? Now that you’ve said it, I want to pee too.”

“Heehee, I know you treat me the best.”

Anything that violated courtesy should not be seen nor heard. Ding Ning quickly hid and turned his back. He did not want to be treated as a hooligan.

In the dark of the night, the sound of flowing water that could spark endless imagination sounded from the deserted wilderness.

Not sure if it was because the pee was held in for too long, when Mosquito finished peeing and was pulling up her pants, Xiaoyao was still peeing.

“Ah!” Xiaoyao let out a terrified scream, causing Mosquito to jump in fright and scream with an even louder voice.

Ding Ning’s heart tightened, and he appeared in a flash. Seeing the two ladies huddle together in fright, he asked, “What’s wrong? Are you alright?”

“Aah!”

Unexpectedly, his sudden appearance frightened the two ladies even more. They screamed terrifiedly, lost their balance, and fainted away with a roll of their eyes.

Alright, as a good young person, how could he allow two beautiful and delicate ladies lie unconscious in the dirt?

With a scoop of his hands, he held the two ladies’ slim waists. The soft touch from the contact sent a jolt in his heart.

The most annoying thing was that Xiaoyao was touched by the movement of the grass and was frightened by the thought that it was some monster instead. Her pink panties were not pull up in time, and the mysterious glow of youth could be seen vaguely.

Such a big-chested lady at this point added even more temptation, causing Ding Ning’s tongue to go dry. His breath also began more rapid, and his heartbeat went wild.

Quickly closing his eyes and taking deep breaths, he resisted strongly his basal instincts and carried the two girls onto the car. He was even nice enough to lift Xiaoyao’s panties back in place.

He then checked their bodies, and upon realizing that they fainted from fright, he left assuredly.

“Ah… You… you are the black masked man?”

The slowly awakening Mosquito found herself back in the car with a man wearing a black mask in the backseat. Immediately, she screamed.

“Mosquito, what’s up? Ah…”

The scream awoke Xiaoyao. Blinking her big sleepy eyes, she saw Mosquito’s trembling fingers, whose face was full of fright, and turned to follow the direction it was pointing in.

Xiaoyao stared dumbly at Ding Ning for at least half a minute. The iris of her eyes radiated out an emotional gaze, “Black masked man, you are the black masked man.”

Ding Ning had a face of speechlessness. Was this girl not scared at all? Also, what was black masked man? Wasn’t he just wearing a black mask? Wasn’t “masked man” a better name than “black masked man”? What a terrible name.

He coughed drily and replied, “You’re right. I’m the black masked man.”

“Wow, black masked man. That’s so great. I like you very much.”

Xiaoyao said joyously and turned to kneel on her seat. Her gaze at Ding Ning was filled with much passion, and her huge chest began to thrust up and down in waves.

Ding Ning looked on with a dry mouth. Damn, this girl must have grown up in a milk farm. He laughed bitterly and helplessly, “You’re not scared that I’m a bad guy?”

“How can you be a bad guy? I saw how you saved that young person. I also wanted to help him, but I couldn’t do it. Thank goodness you saved him. So I think you are my big hero now.”

Xiaoyao was emotional, so her speech had no logic. Her admiring gaze caused Ding Ning to break out in waves of sweat. Yet, he was starting to like this girl with an unknown reason.

As he rubbed his nose and smiled, he said, “Alright, I’m definitely not some hero. I just couldn’t stand how those people viewed other lives so lowly.”

“Still not a hero? A lot of people thought the same, but there was no one lending a helping hand with courage. I am one of these people. Do you think I’m useless?”

Xiaoyao pouted her lips sadly. Her big eyes welled up with tears, reflecting a trace of self-blame.

“No, abilities vary. You are a girl. Having no strength to help others is very normal. But you have a kind heart and that’s enough.”

“With greater power comes greater responsibility. At a time when so many people do not dare to offend Qin Canglan, only you were not afraid of offending him and dared to strike. So, you are the real big hero.”

Xiaoyao was almost about to become a fangirl. Her baby-powdered cheeks began to show agitated waves of excitement, and she spoke ceaselessly as if she was speaking to her idol. Her praise left Ding Ning going red with embarrassment and breaking out in sweat.

He knew he was actually a man that did not care about other people’s business. He was also not as big of a hero as Xiaoyao said. He lent a hand to save Ye Tianlang because he saw himself in Ye Tianlang’s eyes. His act of saving emerged out of his own sorrow.

Xiaoyao’s praise had by no means a small effect on him. His past self constantly complained and used his dad’s expectation to remain humble as an excuse. Whenever he saw unjust matters, he only said a few unhappy phrases. He always placed himself as an outsider’s point of view.

This was an era with a deficit of trust and moral decay. Too many unsightly matters caused unease in his heart. Unless the matters endangered the people he loved, he would carry on with his life proudly. With such an attitude, what difference did he have with the numb and vegetated people?

In a society where no one dared to do good out of fear of criticism, perhaps, being a civic-minded and black masked man seemed like a good option.

At least he could fulfill some people’s desire for a hero and awaken people’s conscience.

At this moment, because of Xiaoyao’s praise, Ding Ning’s soul began to transform. He changed from a passive observer of fate to an active agent of his own destiny.
