I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 658 - 464 Disbelief_2

Although he said this, Ning Jiacheng didn’t take direct action this time. This was because, seeing his son’s unusual reaction, Ning Jiacheng was also curious about what he had discovered.

After scoffing at Xia Liang, Ning Mingjun continued his explanation. "Father, do you remember several months ago when Doctor Ye took a long vacation and no one knew where he went? What does this have to do with Master Xia?"

"Of course there’s a connection, and a very significant one at that," Ning Mingjun said, his voice rising.

Before Old Master Ning Jiacheng could ask further, Ning Mingjun spoke again. "Because the place Doctor Ye went on his long vacation was Qingyun City. Father, you should remember what’s significant about Qingyun City."

"Qingyun... Qingyun City?" Muttering to himself, Ning Jiacheng turned to look at Xia Liang, who stood a short distance away.

When Ning Mingjun mentioned the name Qingyun, he immediately recalled that Great Master Xia Liang came from Qingyun City. It naturally occurred to him. Old Master Ning Jiacheng immediately made the connection between his granddaughter Xiao Yun, her attending physician Doctor Ye, and Xia Liang. One was from Qingyun City, and the other had just taken a long vacation there a few months ago.

Could it be that the two of them know each other?

As this thought crossed his mind, Ning Jiacheng felt something was strange about the matter. Meanwhile, Ning Mingjun continued.

"At that time, Master Xia didn’t have the famous reputation he has now. But Doctor Ye had already started praising how incredibly talented Master Xia was. To say that Doctor Ye doesn’t know you, Master Xia, is something I refuse to believe."

Ning Mingjun said this with a cold sneer, his eyes fixed on Xia Liang.

Yet Xia Liang remained calm and unruffled, not even bothering to speak.

Seeing this, Ning Mingjun continued, "Perhaps Doctor Ye already knew roughly when Xiao Yun would awaken, and you just happened to arrive in Xiangjiang at the same time. This whole story about saving Xiao Yun with a single thought from dozens of kilometers away... it’s all fabricated! It’s a conspiracy you two planned long ago."

Ning Mingjun’s voice gradually faded in the room.

Seeing this, Wu Tong wanted to step forward and refute him, but Xia Liang waved his hand, signaling her not to be impulsive.

Then, Xia Liang turned his gaze to Old Master Ning Jiacheng. "Your son has spun an interesting tale, but unfortunately, it’s nothing more than a coincidence. So..."

Xia Liang paused before continuing, "What’s your take on what your son has said?"

Xia Liang’s question put Old Master Ning Jiacheng on the spot.

My plane leaves tomorrow, and I certainly won’t delay my trip over the Ning Family’s business. The future of his granddaughter and the entire Ning Family depends on the old master’s attitude. If you believe your son and think I’m a fraud, then you can discover the conflicts festering within your family on your own. But by the time you realize the truth, I’m afraid the Ning Family will already be on the verge of collapse.

Clearly, Xia Liang was gradually losing patience with Ning Mingjun’s repeated disrespect.

Listening to Xia Liang’s question, doubt was evident on Old Master Ning Jiacheng’s face. His eyes darted between Xia Liang and Ning Mingjun before he finally spoke slowly. "That’s all nonsense. Master Xia just said it’s merely a story, a coincidence. If his words have angered you, Master Xia, I will banish him from the Ning Family this instant."

"Dad, how can you believe that fraud?" Ning Mingjun shouted, stunned by his father’s words.

I’ve explained everything so clearly, so how can he still trust this so-called Master Xia? It’s obviously a conspiracy! Xia Liang and Doctor Ye colluded long ago, and there are probably others involved with them. Their target is the Ning Family! Why does the old master still believe Xia Liang so unconditionally?

Ning Mingjun simply couldn’t understand. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

As for Old Master Ning Jiacheng, his response was the result of careful consideration. He trusted his old friend, He Youling, far more than his own son. The two of them had been both friends and rivals for many years, engaged in a silent competition. He was certain that He Youling wouldn’t be fooled by simple tricks, and besides, he had seen the improvement in He Youling’s health with his own eyes.

Taking a step back, even if everything his son said was true, he would never tear down the bridge with Xia Liang so openly. It was just like those fake masters who had appeared in Dragon Country in the past. Even if their abilities were fake, plenty of celebrities and officials would still flock to them. At that level, the connections these masters commanded were their greatest asset. Whether they had any real skill was no longer important. Besides, everything Ning Mingjun had said was pure speculation. It wasn’t a difficult choice to decide whose side to be on.

Meanwhile, Xia Liang nodded upon hearing Old Master Ning Jiacheng’s reply. He naturally understood the old master’s thought process.

Logically, after Ning Mingjun had gone so far with his accusations, even if the old master didn’t believe him, he should at least have some doubts about me. He might have even asked for proof. But I never expected him to trust me so completely and unconditionally. He even said he would expel Ning Mingjun from the family with just a nod from me.

Even Xia Liang was somewhat surprised by Old Master Ning Jiacheng’s attitude, and he even felt a little touched. In the past few months, not a single person who hadn’t witnessed his abilities firsthand had ever shown him such trust. He had done nothing more than snap his fingers in front of Old Master Ning Jiacheng, without using any of his other abilities. With that single decision, the old master had just pulled the Ning Family back from the brink of disaster.

Seeing Xia Liang’s expression, Old Master Ning Jiacheng felt a bit awkward. "Master Xia, is there a problem?"

Xia Liang smiled. "No problem at all. However..."

"However what?" Old Master Ning Jiacheng grew tense once more.

"However, since Old Master Ning trusts me so much, I’ll give the Ning Family two more gifts."

"Two more gifts for the Ning Family?"

Hearing Xia Liang’s words, Old Master Ning Jiacheng’s eyes widened, and a look of joyous surprise spread across his face. For an ordinary person, receiving Master Xia’s help even once was a remarkable fortune. Yet his Ning Family was about to receive two consecutive gifts. If word of this got out, countless people across Dragon Country would be green with envy. In the future, when that old man He Youling started boasting about his relationship with Master Xia, he would finally have something to say in return.

In contrast to Old Master Ning Jiacheng’s excited expression, Ning Mingjun’s face grew increasingly grim. He hurriedly interjected, "Dad, what’s wrong with you? Didn’t you hear what I said? This so-called Master Xia definitely knows Xiao Yun’s attending physician! It’s all a conspiracy! What could he possibly give us?"

Hearing Ning Mingjun’s words, Old Master Ning Jiacheng’s face gradually turned cold. He gave his son a chilling glance and said slowly, "Have you forgotten what I said?"

As Ning Jiacheng’s words echoed in the room, Ning Mingjun’s back was instantly drenched in sweat. His father’s expression was no joking matter.

If Master Xia really gets angry because of what I said... the old master might actually expel me from the Ning Family!
