"There's a place I'd like to have on South Island," said Jiang Ning. "But it seems to be in Nan Batian hands.
Fang Mi's eyes constricted when he heard the three words 'Nan Batian'.
"What place is it?" "Qiankun Island," said Jiang Ning. "I need it temporarily." Did he only need to use it only temporarily? "How do you wantto help?" Fang Mi calmed down a little after he felt that Jiang Ning really wasn't going to kill him.
"I know you want to replace Nan Batian. The old thing is getting on his age, and its high the retired," said Jiang Ning as he glanced at Fang Mi. "I can help you take over Nan Batian. And all you need to do is to hand Qiankun Island tofor a period of time. This deal is a sure win. What do you think?" Fang Mi didn't respond immediately.
It sounded like an excellent deal for sure, but things like that were usually more sinister than they appeared.

And judging from Nan Batian's attitude, he would probably want to avoid conflict with Jiang Ning.
So why did Jiang Ning attempt to go through him instead? Fang Mi wasn't stupid. After he carefully contemplated for a while, he just couldn't figure out what significance this action of Jiang Ning's could possibly have.
"Are you trying to makeyour puppet?" This was the only possibility that struck Fang Mi's mind.
"It's not as complicated as you think. I'm not interested in a tiny place like South Island," said Jiang Ning as he stood up. "I don't want a high profile or to attract trouble. Shall we both just take what we need?" Then he picked up the cigarettes Fang Mi had lying on the table and threw them straight into the trash can nearby.
"It's better to quit smoking," said Jiang Ning before turning to leave without looking back. "I await your good news." Fang Mi continued to sit there motionlessly even after Jiang Ning entered the lift.
Only after Jiang Ning returned to his room for a long tdid Fang Mi exhale deeply and reach his hands out to shift his legs laboriously.
"They're numb." His legs had gone numb out of fear for Jiang Ning! Although Jiang Ning clearly didn't touch him or even exude an oppressive air of murder, he felt as though he had lost control of his life just by sitting there.
A long tlater, Fang Mi was finally able to stand up. His back was already damp from sweat.
He immediately called smen over. But he didn't call them over to seek revenge on Jiang Ning. He treaded carefully instead as he cautiously removed all of his men who had fainted. He didn't dare to make a single sound.

Su Yun had already changed into her pajamas. She trailed behind Linm Yuzhen and walked over to Jiang Ning somewhat awkwardly. "Su Yun doesn't dare to sleep alone. She wants to sleep with us," said Lin Yuzhen shyly.
Why did it sound a little strange when it was clearly a serious conversation? "No," rejected Jiang Ning immediately without a shred of hesitation.
He looked up and glanced at Su Yun, "You're too old to sleep with us.m What's going to happen to my reputation if you sleep here?" Su Yun almost wanted to cough blood out from her chest. Her eyes widened as she stared motionlessly at Jiang Ning.
She couldn't believe her how shameless he could be.
His reputation?
"Wifey, you pamper her too much. This is a bad idea," said Jiang Ning with a hurt look on his face. If Fang Mi were still around he wouldn't have believed that Jiang Ning was capable of such an expression. "If word got out, what would becof my reputation?" said Jiang Ning as he gazed at Lin Yuzhen, looking more and more indignant.
