Chapter 800: What should we do now?
She was a kind and well-behaved girl, so she genuinely could not ignore it.
Di Jinxuan tightly grasped her phone, unable to hold back her tears. While sobbing, she mumbled to herself sincerely, "Nangong Jin, if you really come out of this unscathed, I won’t be angry at you anymore, really."
Meanwhile
Nangong Ran rushed urgently to his parents’ room, knocking anxiously on the door, "Mom, Dad, open the door, open the door. My third brother is in trouble, something has happened!"
On hearing him, Nangong Tiancheng and Li Hui quickly turned over and got up, hastily putting on their pajamas, and opened the door, "What happened?"
Nangong Ran threw himself into Nangong Tiancheng’s arms, "Dad, my third brother has been shot, he’s been shot!"
Uh.
Nangong Tiancheng blinked, a bit slow to react. It wasn’t Nangong Jin’s first time being shot.
"Daughter, be clear, what do you mean by ’shot’? Has he been actually shot, or is it slang for impregnating a girl?"
Li Hui by the side quickly asked.
Nangong Ran lifted his distressed face, "Mom, you still have the mood to joke at a time like this, of course he’s been shot by a gun!"
Li Hui jumped, "My goodness, shot again! He didn’t get hit anywhere fatal, did he?"
"I don’t know." Nangong Ran shook his head, "These days I haven’t been able to contact him, but Xuanxuan just did, she just called me crying, saying my third brother got shot, and something about a riot."
"A riot in Miaojiang." Nangong Tiancheng’s eyes narrowed and his expression instantly turned serious, "I knew this business deal was not that simple. A turf war between two gangs. Hui, make a call quickly."
"Yes." Li Hui nodded, surprisingly calm. She quickly walked over to the bedside table, picked up the phone, and dialed a number.
Two seconds later, she hung up the phone and looked at Nangong Tiancheng, "Xiaojin’s phone is out of service, I’m afraid he’s taken out the card, probably being tracked."
"Call Feng Rao." Nangong Tiancheng directed.
"Same result." Li Hui shook the phone.
Nangong Tiancheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he eventually sighed heavily, "Well, we can only wait then."
"What do you mean?" Nangong Ran looked at his parents, puzzled.
Li Hui helplessly shook her head, "This time, a drug lord in Miaojiang has ordered a heavy shipment of arms, offering a profit margin three times the market price, so I felt it was fishy. That’s why I asked Xiaojin to check it out. I didn’t expect it to actually go wrong."
"Mom!" Nangong Ran called out with discontent, "How could you? You knew it was risky but you still let third brother go!"
Li Hui looked sternly at Nangong Ran, "This is the business we do. When money is offered up, do we have a reason to say ’no’?"
"So you’re putting money over people’s lives?" Nangong Ran couldn’t understand, angrily glaring at Li Hui.
"My daughter, our family owes its fortune to the underworld. It isn’t easy getting out. We have enemies everywhere. The moment we retire, we are not even sure how we will die. Your dad and I are getting old; someone has to carry on.
Your third brother has always been alert, agile, tactful, and even-tempered since he was a child. So if he doesn’t take it up, who will?"
Nangong Ran fell silent. Her family had only two brothers. The oldest, Nangong Yue, although older, has never been interested in underworld dealings.
She remembered when they were little, both her brothers would train, but Nangong Yue always seemed a step behind Nangong Jin.
So, naturally, the responsibility had fallen on Nangong Jin.
Nangong Ran looked at Li Hui and asked, "What do we do now?"
