CHAPTER 1555: CHAPTER 1555 COMPLETELY ABANDONED

Ning Hongda did not deny it, and sat down on the sofa not far away.

Staring at Ning Xueling and He Qiuping: "I’ve warned you before not to provoke the Luo family people again, why don’t you listen?"

He Qiuping was really a bit panicked now. Before, the Luo family hadn’t made any harsh moves, so he didn’t take it seriously.

Thinking with Ning Xueling around, they wouldn’t go too far. But once they made a move, it was startling. The project in his hands had been prepared for half a year. Above seemed very optimistic about it, and the leadership had said it could be finalized after the new year.

No one expected a single phone call to negate the half-years’ effort he and his colleagues had put in. If the project team found out, how disappointed would they be when their project was halted? It would mean the competing group’s project could get underway.

If it was really settled, how would he carry out work in the future? Who among his subordinates would be willing to listen to his directives willingly? So while it’s not yet announced, he must find a way to make the leadership withdraw their previous statement.

Clearly, his project holds a great advantage. He doesn’t believe the leadership would abandon their project and choose another group. That reason could only be artificial, someone must have intervened.

Ning Hongda had no interest in hearing them speak further and spoke coldly: "I can’t help with this, don’t waste your efforts here with me."

Xueling, I’m almost at the age to retire, spending most of my life helping you deal with various troubles. Now, the issue is too big, I really don’t have the ability to help you anymore.

Over the years, because of your matters, I’ve offended almost everyone. Let me off."

Ning Xueling never thought her big brother would say such words, but if not him, who else could she ask?

She couldn’t possibly return to the machinery factory to ask Luo Haotian for help. She couldn’t afford to lose face like that. If she really did that, the people at the factory would laugh at her.

He Qiuping was anxious: "Big Brother, this matter is really important to me. Please help me."

Zhang Yuehua walked in at this moment: "Xueling, your brother is retiring next year. He spent his whole life because of you offending people; can you just let him go?

You came here for him to help, isn’t it essentially asking him to beg others? Why can’t you go yourself? Do you not know people or don’t know the way? Must you force him?

Didn’t you say before you wouldn’t show up at the Ning family’s door again? So what is this now?"

Ning Xueling heard her sister-in-law’s words, and her chest heaved with anger: "Sister-in-law, I am talking to my brother, why are you intruding?"

Zhang Yuehua pointed to the door and said: "This is my home, I don’t welcome you, please leave immediately."

Ning Xueling turned around to look at her big brother: "Big Brother, with sister-in-law treating me like this, don’t you care?"

Ning Hongda kept a cold face: "How to care, divorce for you?"

Then smiled bitterly: "I have taken care of you for most of our lives, you and I are about to retire soon, I can’t manage anymore. I still need to depend on your sister-in-law’s care, without her, the family truly cannot function. Without her, can you come and help me manage the household?"

Ning Xueling couldn’t accept the reality that her big brother really wouldn’t take care of her, feeling a bit flustered.

But He Qiuping understood clearly, the Ning family isn’t unwilling to manage Ning Xueling as a person, but they won’t handle the trouble she causes anymore.

In his heart, he was angry at Ning Xueling: "Big Brother, the trouble Ning Xueling caused today has nothing to do with me, right? If it wasn’t because of being the Ning family’s outlier relative, I wouldn’t be implicated."

Ning Hongda stared into his eyes: "Then why does Xueling need to help Ning Ziping, don’t tell me there’s no reason?"

He Qiuping frowned and fell silent, indeed unable to speak.

Originally, the daughter-in-law of the He family was downsized by her unit, and hadn’t found suitable work all along. Because she felt her husband is a college student and she, too, a high school graduate, the work she favored looked down on her, and the suitable positions felt unsuitable to her. Stuck between high and low, she stayed at home.

Previously, Ning Ziping also sought Ning Xueling’s help, promising benefits. Ning Xueling asked Ning Hongda for help but was rejected by Luo Qiao, and the matter ended up unresolved.

But after knowing Guan Yuqi was pregnant, Ning Ziping couldn’t sit still. If the son couldn’t be recognized back, it would mean the grandson couldn’t be recognized either in the future. So knowing the He family daughter-in-law had no work, promised a government unit position.

This led to Ning Xueling’s audacious actions today along with He Qiuping’s lucky mindset.

Now, they have provoked the Luo family, and realizing it’s serious, came to Ning Hongda for help.

Ning Hongda gestured towards the doorway: "You should leave, truly I cannot help, today Luo Haotian indeed called, threatening that if I manage your affairs again, the Ning family won’t have peace."

Off to the side, Zhang Yuehua looked at Ning Hongda: "Haotian really said that?"

Ning Hongda nodded with a bitter smile: "Roughly this year, they have had enough of tolerating. The bit of camaraderie we had depleted, so directly exploded, cursed me over the call, and hung up, not giving me a chance to explain at all."

No one in the room expected it to be this outcome.

At this moment, Ning Hongbo, who was listening outside for quite a while, also walked in: "Xueling, can you stop? Do you really want our family to break up because of you, for you to be happy?"

The two brothers thoroughly gave up on her, the nephews and nieces stood in the courtyard looking at her with eyes filled with disdain and contempt. Ning Xueling didn’t even know how she left the Ning family house.
