Chapter 1: The Eye-Catching Wedding

  Ning Fan put down the box and then pulled open the zipper, opening the lid. A stack of banknotes immediately appeared in the sight of the two kidnappers.

  The two kidnappers' breathing became noticeably rapid, and the big man holding the dagger even trembled slightly.

  "You can come and check, there are 50 million here, no counterfeit bills." Ning Fan said calmly.

  Counterfeit money?

  The big man holding the dagger was taken aback for a moment, then he hastily said to another big man: "You go and check, maybe it's all newspaper underneath!"

  The big Han, who had already been attracted by the red tickets, heard this and immediately rushed over. Then he started rummaging through the box, excitedly shouting: "Haha, so much money! We're rich, we're rich..."

  The excitement of this big Han was also infectious to the other big Han who held a dagger, and his line of sight became somewhat erratic. Just then, Ning Fan suddenly moved!

  In an instant, Ning Fan's speed reached its peak, and he transformed into a shadowy figure, appearing beside Li Feng like a ghost. One of his hands flashed towards the big man's right wrist, which was holding a dagger, and with a sudden burst of force, crushed the big man's wrist bone!

  "Ah!" The big man came to his senses, let out a miserable cry, but the dagger had already naturally loosened and moved away from Li Feng's neck. Ning Fan chopped down with one hand on the back of the big man's head before pulling it back, catching the dagger in passing.

  But the big man directly fainted and fell to the ground.

  The whole process was actually extremely brief, almost just a second, and the guy who was counting his money didn't even notice, continuing to chase his get-rich dream.

  Ning Fan didn't hesitate either and directly pounced on that guy, also hitting him on the head, directly knocking him unconscious.

  Ning Fan was very measured in his actions. Although he knocked them unconscious, he actually only made them dizzy for a while and didn't truly hurt their brains.

  Then Ning Fang calmly closed the box, pulled up the zipper and picked it up.

  "Expert, be careful!" a loud shout came at this time.

  "Son of a turtle egg, I'm going to kill you!" A shrill cry also came almost simultaneously.

  Ning Fan didn't even turn his head, and directly kicked back with one foot, sending a woman who was holding a knife and originally heading towards him flying away. This woman then collided with another man who was also originally heading in this direction, and the two of them crashed into each other before simultaneously losing consciousness.

  "Awesome, awesome, great job, you're so cool!" An excited voice came over, this voice was naturally from Li Feng, apart from Ning Fan, Li Feng was the only other person in the room who was still awake.

  Ning Fan couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, this guy had just been kidnapped, yet he was still so excited, what's wrong with him, is he stupid or just too careless?

  He picked up his mobile phone and dialed Li Liang's number: "Mr. Li, I'm Ning Fan. Your brother is fine now. Let me put him on the line for a word."

  Handing the phone to Li Feng, Ning Fan said, "Say something to your brother, he's worried about your safety."

  "Oh, great!" Li Feng was quite cooperative and immediately took over the phone. "Big brother, where did you find this expert? He's too handsome! He took down the kidnapper in just a minute, and that pose is especially cool! Alright, big brother, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to go find an expert to be my master first!"

  Handing the phone to Ning Fan, Li Feng looked at him with great excitement: "Master, accept me as your apprentice! I want to learn martial arts from you. By the way, Master, what's your name? My name is Li Feng, 'Feng' as in harvest, but many people call me Crazy, as in mentally ill crazy."

  Ning Fan didn't respond to Li Feng, but instead continued speaking into the phone: "Mr. Li, please notify the police and have them come deal with the kidnappers here. I'll send your brother over later."

  "Good, see you later then." Li Liang also seemed quite pleased.

  Ning Fan hung up the phone, found a few vines nearby, and tied the four kidnappers together with their hands behind their backs. He then patted them a few times and finally picked up the box, calling out to Li Feng: "Let's go, your brother is still waiting."

  "Master big brother, let me help you carry your luggage!" Li Feng hastily came over to offer his assistance.

  "Alright." Ning Fan put down the box.

  Li Feng lifted it with one hand but couldn't move it. He changed to using both hands and finally managed to lift it, but he didn't take a single step before putting it down again.

  "Hey, Master Li, this box is really heavy!" Li Feng smiled awkwardly.

  Ning Fan shook his head, casually picked up the box, and walked away with it as if it were a small ordinary package. Li Feng secretly whistled in admiration, "No wonder he's an expert! His strength is really impressive!"

  "Master Big Brother..." Li Feng chased after him.

  "My name is Ning Fan." Ning Fan said calmly.

  "Oh, Brother Fan, can you take me as your apprentice?" Li Feng couldn't get this out of his mind.

  "Mr. Li, learning martial arts should start from a young age, now it's too late," Ning Fan said with some helplessness.

  "Brother Fan, I'm only 23, not old at all." Li Feng looked a bit unwilling. "And Brother Fan, don't call me Mr. Li, it sounds weird. Call me Crazy instead, everyone else does."

  "I started learning martial arts when I was five years old." Ning Fan said calmly, he thought Li Feng's nickname was indeed well-deserved, the two words "madman" suited him quite well.

  "Then, Brother Fan, why don't you teach me a few tricks to make me look cool?" Li Feng still wouldn't give up. "I think relying on my face to pick up girls isn't reliable either. If you teach me some tricks, I'll definitely be more formidable at picking up girls."

  Ning Fan didn't even bother to respond to Li Feng anymore, martial arts weren't meant for showing off.

  Ning Fan quickened his pace, and Li Feng had to jog to keep up. Before long, he was panting and couldn't continue to pester Ning Fan to teach him martial arts. Instead, he kept shouting: "Brother Fan, slow down, wait for me..."

  Ten minutes later, Li Feng got on the car and directly collapsed in the car, without even having the strength to speak.

  Not until Ning Fan drove back to the hotel did Li Feng recover some of his strength, while Li Liang had been waiting at the hotel entrance.

  "Little brother, are you okay? Why do you look so down? Never mind, I'll take you to the hospital for a check-up first." Li Liang was clearly very concerned about his little brother.

  "Big brother, no need, I don't have to go to the hospital," Li Feng hastily said.

  "I said I'd go, so I'll go." Li Liang's words had an unyielding tone to them. "You get in the car first, I'll have a few words with Ning Fan."

  "Alright." Li Feng responded weakly.

  Seeing Li Liangchao walking towards him, Ning Fan pushed the money box to him and said: "Mr. Li, this is 50 million, returning intact."

  "Here, this is 100,000." Li Liang handed a bulging paper bag to Ning Fan. "Originally I should have treated you to a feast, but I need to send my brother to the hospital first. I think, how about this: eighteen bodyguards will arrive tonight, tomorrow afternoon, you can meet with them again, and we'll have lunch together then?"

  "No problem, Mr. Li, you go ahead and attend to your business." Ning Fan took over the paper bag.

  "Don't call me Mr. Li anymore, from now on, just like Daxiong, call me Liangzi." Li Liang stretched out his right hand again, "Ning Fan, this time I really thank you, if there's anything in the future, feel free to give me a call."

  "Good." Ning Fan shook hands with Li Liang again.

  Li Liang and Li Feng left quickly, but before leaving, Li Feng shouted: "Feng Ge, wait for me to be discharged from the hospital and I'll come find you again!"

  "Ning Fan, what does that madman Li Feng want with you?" Tang Shaoyong asked curiously.

  "He wants to learn martial arts to show off and pick up girls." Ning Fan said succinctly.

  "Unbelievable, this guy really thought of it!" Tang Shaoyong was speechless for a moment. "By the way, brother, why don't we head back to the city? I have to return to the provincial capital tomorrow, so let's find a place to drink tonight and have some fun!"

  "Big silly bear, Uncle is going to accompany me tonight, not drinking with you!" Yezi said angrily.

  "Uh, how about we just eat and not drink?" Tang Shaohuang was still a bit nervous in front of Yezi.

  "It won't work!" Yezi hummed softly, "Who told you to find a bodyguard for me, annoying ghost!"

  Tang Shaohuang's face turned sour, this girl had a grudge against him now.

  "Yèzi, don't be reckless, Dasheng is also for your own good." Ning Fan softly reproached.

  "Right, right, right, Yezi, Daxiong is really good for you." Tang Shaoyong said hastily.

  The leaves wrinkled her cute nose: "Anyway, you're just annoying!"

  "Ding ding ding......" Ning Fan's phone rang at just the right time.

  Ning Fan took out his mobile phone and answered it: "Hello, who is this?"

  "Excuse me, is this Officer Ning Fan?" A low male voice came from the other end of the phone.

  "I am Ning Fan, but I'm no longer a police officer." Ning Fan was taken aback for a moment, "May I ask, who are you?"

  "I am Bai Congcong, and Bai Min is my sister." Soon after, there was a response, "Officer Ning, I'd like to meet with you to discuss something."

  "Okay, where are you?" Ning Fan replied immediately, but he was somewhat puzzled in his heart. Bai Min's brother actually came out of the police station? It shouldn't be possible, logically speaking.

  "Eight o'clock, meet at Huan Meng Bar." Bai Congcong said in a low voice.

  "Good." Ning Fang still responded very quickly.

  He hung up the phone and Ning Fan thought for a moment before dialing another number: "Uncle Kun, it's me. I want to ask you something."

  A few minutes later, Ning Fan hung up the phone, but his eyebrows were furrowed. Bai Min's brother was indeed named Bai Congcong, and he had just been released from the police station an hour ago. As for why he was released, Shi Kun wasn't clear either, because Shi Kun was currently busy with Ding Guoren's case. However, Shi Kun promised to make some inquiries and should be able to give Ning Fan news soon.

  "Later I'm going to a bar to meet someone..." Ning Fan hadn't finished speaking when Ye Zi suddenly shouted out: "Uncle, me too!"

  "Come on, let's just go to a bar together." Tang Shaohuang also chimed in, he simply wanted to drink anyway.

  "Alright, let's head back to the city first." Ning Fan said after checking the time.

  It's already past six o'clock, and the four of them didn't stay much longer. They quickly drove away from the Qingyun Mountain Scenic Area towards the city center. Less than ten minutes after the car started moving, Ning Fan received a call from Shi Kun.
