Chapter 78: Meeting Another Desperado

When Mo Chen and An Nanxu were in a stalemate, Ning Dai had just arrived at Linhai and got off the plane.

Her subordinates had already arranged for a car to pick her up at the hotel that they had booked beforehand. After entering the room, she let out a sigh of relief and lay on the bed, letting her subordinates get the food.

After her subordinates left, Ning Dai leaned against the window and called Mo Chen. Two consecutive calls had indicated that he was not in the service area and could not be connected.

Ning Dai frowned in confusion. She hung up and sent him a text message.

“Second Brother, I’m off the plane. What are you doing? Call me back when you see this.”

The text message was sent successfully and the doorbell rang. Ning Dai put her phone away and went to open the door.

A waiter who was pushing a food cart stood at the door and smiled politely at her.

“Miss, your order is here.”

“Come in.”

Ning Dai made way and the waiter followed her in. After placing the dining cart against the wall, he suddenly closed the door.

He quickly took out a shiny dagger and stabbed it fiercely at Ning Dai.

‘Not good, it’s an assassin!’

Ning Dai’s eyes turned cold. She quickly turned around and barely dodged the fatal blow. A silver light flashed from her fingertips and pierced into the waiter’s wrist.

“Ah.”

The waiter cried out in pain. A flash of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes as he turned around and pounced on Ning Dai.

Ning Dai calmly dodged his attack again. A few more silver needles pierced into his arm. His arm was so sore and numb that his palm could no longer hold the dagger tightly.

She saw the opportunity and kicked his hand hard. The dagger fell to the ground.

At this moment, the door was pushed open by Ning Dai’s subordinate, who was gasping for breath.

“Protect the Young Miss.”

They shouted as they came in. The waiter saw that he could not escape, so he opened the window and wanted to jump out to escape, but Ning Dai suddenly grabbed his wrist.

“You want to run?”

She pulled him back with a cold expression and threw him to the ground.

“Go and interrogate him properly. Who sent him here?”

“Yes.”

The subordinate agreed and escorted the waiter out. After putting down the food, he closed the door.

The room returned to its usual tranquility.

Ning Dai sat by the bed and carefully thought about what had happened just now. Her fingers pressed tightly against her chest.

She had just gotten off the plane when someone attacked her. They even knew her hotel room number clearly. It seemed that those people had already made preparations before she left.

This attack was premeditated.

‘Oh no, something must have happened to Second Brother as well!’

At the thought of this, Ning Dai took a deep breath to calm herself down and waited for her subordinate to report.

A few minutes later, her subordinate knocked on the door.

“Miss, this assassin’s boss is called Mad Dragon. He’s a local boss in Linhai. We’ve found Mad Dragon’s identity and his personal account.”

Ning Dai took the information from her subordinate and glanced at it. She picked up the computer and swiftly typed on the keyboard with her slender fingers.

Mad Dragon’s bank account had received a huge amount of money three days ago. If she guessed correctly, there was a high probability that Second Uncle and Third Uncle were causing trouble again.

There was also Shen Jun’s arrogance…

Ning Dai couldn’t sit still any longer and ordered her subordinate in a cold voice.

“Let’s go back.”

Even though the herbs here were important, they could still come and collect them later. It was the most dangerous thing for Mo Chen to stay at home alone. If anything happened to him, she would definitely not forgive herself.

Seeing that Ning Dai’s expression wasn’t good, her subordinates knew that something bad was about to happen and quickly went to drive.

Sitting in the car, Ning Dai’s eyes looked out of the window as she clenched her fists tightly.

“Second Brother, you must hold on until I come back.”
