Watching their grateful faces, Ding Ning felt warm in his heart.

  These most lovely people in China were unyielding and ardent men. He really needed such men to work together to create a dream that belonged to everyone.

  He immediately cleared his throat and said emotionally, "Buddies, I can understand your feelings. To be honest, I really need you to help me, but not now. Although I cured your physical disability, there are more people needing our help. I’ve told Xiaoniu about my thoughts before."

  Looking around, Ding Ning saw everyone listening attentively with their expressions more serious than ever, "I am a doctor, and I want to help more people. But I definitely can’t do that by myself, so I really need you, but not to make you my bodyguards. I intend to establish a Foundation for Caring for the Disabled Soldiers to help more disabled soldiers to stand up again, but this is only my initial idea. In order to achieve this goal, there are still many problems needing to be solved. Thus, I hope that you can stay in Tianfu Company for a while. When my plan has progressed, I will invite everyone to work together to help more people. What do you say?"

  "Great!"

  Before they answered, there came a crisp female voice.

  On hearing the voice, everyone looked across the room and saw a beautiful woman in a LO suit looking at Ding Ning with a faint smile.

  Xiaoniu gave Ding Ning an ambiguous look, and quietly waved his hand. They sensibly dispersed in a rush and pretended to be walking around, while peeping at Ding Ning from time to time without hiding the mischievous smile in their eyes.

  "Sister Mu, when did you come?"

  Ding Ning was so excited that he did not notice when Mu Yanran came. He scratched his head and asked in embarrassment.

  "Humph, I’ve been here for a long while. I consider you have a conscience, now that you didn’t take away all security guards from our company."

  Mu Yanran did not know why her depressed mood became inexplicably better at the sight of Ding Ning, and teased.

  "No, it’s just not the time yet."

  After initial panic, Ding Ning became mischievous again.

  "By the way, what you just said is true?"

  Mu Yanran fixedly stared at him, and had a new understanding of him. He was highly-skilled in both carving and medicine.

  Others didn’t pay attention, but she noticed an amazing fact because of her concern about Niu Xiaoniu.

  She saw Gong Qiang and others limp, but when she saw them again the next day, they walked fast and vigorously.

  If she didn’t know about Niu Xiaoniu’s leg disability, she would think that these people pretended to be lame.

  Because of what had happened in the Stone-gambling House and the disappearance of black masked man, she faced all kinds of rumors and slanders in the company and General Manager Sun, who always had an amiable smile, was also annoyed with her. She felt extremely unhappy, so she came out to take a walk to ease her mood.

  When Peng Haitao and others came, she happened to come to the company. Liu Jinqiang came in the company in a wheelchair, which greatly impressed her.

  At this moment, Liu Jinqiang couldn’t walk very steadily, but a paralysed person came in in a wheelchair but went out on his feet. She was astonished by this magical medical skills.

  On hearing Ding Ning’s impassioned speech, she couldn’t help but shouted "great".

  "Of course it is true. Do I look like that kind of unreliable person?"

  Facing doubts, Ding Ning raised his chin at a forty-five degree angle and proudly said.

  "I didn’t mean that you are not reliable, but just didn’t expect you to be so open-minded."

  Mu Yanran could not bear his arrogance, but had to admit that Ding Ning’s thought made her look upon him with special respect.

  "I can never be as open-minded as sister Mu."

  Ding Ning winked and stared at Mu Yanran’s towering chest, indicating something else.

  "Rogue!"

  Mu Yanran blushed and gave him a fierce look, "If you dare to gaze at me again, be careful that I’ll dig your eyeballs out."

  "Confucius says, the desire for food and sex is part of human nature. Women should be appreciated by men. Sister Mu, I look at you because you are gorgeous. I have no interest in looking at ordinary women."

  Ding Ning looked like a rogue who showed his respect for a woman by looking at her, which made Mu Yanran stamp her foot with anger.

  She was not used to talking about such an awkward topic with a man, so she immediately looked away and said, "Do you come here to give medical advice to them?"

  "I’m not giving them medical advice, but healing them. They have shed too much blood for this country. But after retiring from military service due to disability, they did not receive the respect they deserve, but suffered from many people’s supercilious look. This is too unfair to them. I want to help them, but I can’t do that by myself. So I want to establish a foundation and call on more people to give a helping hand."

  When it came to business, Ding Ning looked serious, even a little solemn.

  "It is related to the entire country’s policies and systems for disabled soldiers, so it is a thankless job. It will probably be very difficult for you to do that. Some people have established such charitable foundations before, but they ended up in these people’s tools for collecting money. After their behaviors were exposed, these people lost all standing and reputation and bore the bad names during their lives."

  Mu Yanran had obviously paid attention to the matter in this aspect and persuaded him with a sigh.

  "I don’t agree with you. If I don’t do it, you don’t do it and no one does it, we all expect the state policy to support it, it can’t solve the problem at all. The state policy is good, but it lacks humanized executive plan. Do you know about the situation of the disabled soldiers? They are soldiers with military arrogance and spirit. Do you think that they who are so proud will debase themselves to earn a living? Will they fawn upon the rich and powerful persons? Can they bear the sarcastic remarks made by some detestable people? Can they be integrated into society like normal people?"

  With resoluteness on his face, he said in a sonorous voice, "I have limited power, but I believe that I will be able to find like-minded companions who will work with me. I don’t expect them to be grateful to me, but expect them to live a normal life, not to be treated with disdain and not to be discriminated against. They are heroes who have defended the country, and should not suffer such unfair treatment. I don’t expect them to receive the respect they deserve, but at least, we should not make the heroes shed tears after shedding blood. Those so-called charitable foundations are simply deceitful institutions with the intention of collecting money. The foundation I want to establish is absolutely not a profit-making organization, and will never end up in a tool for collecting money. It will do some practical things for these brave soldiers."

  As Mu Yanran looked at his face showing right-mindedness, there was sparkle in her eyes. At this moment, Ding Ning seemed to be very different from usual. She immediately chuckled and teased, "May you succeed. I hope that you won’t be a person as unpopular as a rat crossing the street."

  "I have no regret."

  Ding Ning shook his head in disapproval and shifted the topic, "By the way, how are you these two days? Are you alright?"

  "Nothing much." Mu Yanran obviously didn’t want to tell him about her work and didn’t mention that she had been set up.

  "By the way, I have a batch of finished products. Does your company want to buy them?"

  Ding Ning wanted to sell the pendants made by the jade of the Ice Type to the merchants in the antique street, but at the moment he got a new idea.

  Mu Yanran had spent 300 million yuan for nothing, so their jades must be in short supply. These jades of Ice Type might be able to meet her urgent needs.

  As he expected, as Mu Yanran heard his words, her eyes lit up. 300 million yuan was not enough to cause Tianfu branch company’s fund shortage, but the high-end jades of the subordinate chain stores had been sold out and they urged the company to supply jades every day. What mostly troubled her at present was the supply of goods of the company. So she asked, "How’s the quality?"

  "Pendants of Ice Type. They are in the car, and I’ll take you to have a look."

  Ding Ning first went to the Cayenne.

  "Pendants of Ice Type?" Mu Yanran looked refreshed and quickly followed him.

  She then shook his head with a bitter smile. Jades of ice type were rare, so there would be just a few pendants. It was impossible to solve the company’s predicament.

  "There are also big ornaments of Glass Type. I’m just wondering if your company can afford."

  Ding Ning seemed to see through her mind and said lightly.

  "What? Ornaments of Glass Type? Are you serious?"

  Mu Yanran was overjoyed, "We’ll buy them."

  "Does your company have so much money?"

  Ding Ning asked with some suspicion.

  "Humph, don’t underestimate our branch company. Although the performance in this half year is not good, it is because the shortage of raw materials leads to the shortage of our high-end jades. In Ninghai where there are numerous rich people, the more expensive things are, the easier for us to sell them out. As long as you have good things, we can even offer hundreds of millions of yuan, not to mention tens of millions of yuan."

  Mu Yanran said dismissively.

  Ding Ning secretly sighed, "Hundreds of millions of yuan, it seems to be not even close."

  "Hundreds of millions of yuan is still not even close? Are you kidding?"

  Mu Yanran gave him a scornful look as if he was a rustic.

  "Look, these are pendants of Ice Type. How much can your company offer?"

  Ding Ning opened the front door, picked up a big bag and poured out thirty-nine pendants of Ice Type as if they were just cabbages.

  "They are all pendants of Ice Type?"

  Mu Yanran was dumbfounded, hurriedly stepped forward to push him away and said with distress, "Handle gently."

  She picked up the pendants of Ice Type one by one, looked them with sparkle in her eyes and blushed with excitement, "God, they are all pendants of Ice Type. The carving skill is incredible. Every product made by Ding Ning has quality assurance. Now the company’s problem of supply of goods has been solved halfway."

  "Hey, sister Mu, although we are friends, now these pendants still belong to me, not your company."

  Seeing her eyes light up, Ding Ning found it amusing and teased her. He had never seen Mu Yanran’s money-obsessed look.

  "Humph, they belong to me, since I’ve seen them. State a price. I’ll buy them all."

  Noticing that she had lost her composure, Mu Yanran instantly became an icy queen again and arrogantly raised her chin to a forty-five degree angle.

  "Just tell me the price you want. If it is appropriate, we can conclude a transaction."

  Ding Ning said indifferently. After knowing the price of the jade of Glass Type, he really did not value this jade of Ice Type much.

  "Tell you the price I want? Can I give you ten million yuan? No one does business like that."

  Mu Yanran impatiently gave him a hard look.

  "Okay, as long as you like, I’m even willing to give them to you."

  Ding Ning said with a smile. It was funny to tease the queen.

  "Humph, Ding Ning, why are you so generous to me? Tell me, do you want to pursue me?"

  Mu Yanran glared at him with vigilance on her face.

  "You think too much. I have a girlfriend. Since I call you sister, I naturally should do you a favor." Ding Ning said listlessly.

  Mu Yanran was stunned, and inexplicably felt a bit jealous. She pulled a long face and said officially, "There are thirty-nine pendants in total, and the excellent carving skill adds the value of these pendants. Based on the price of four million yuan for each pendant, it’s initially estimated that they are worth about 156 million yuan. In terms of the specific price, we need the appraisers of the company to offer the final price, but it won’t be greatly different from the estimated price."

  "Okay, you can give me 150 million yuan and keep the remnant as the money I give you for your sanitary napkins every month."

  Ding Ning said with an innocent grin.
