My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 995

Chapter 995 Feeling Pleased

When Rong Yi found Rong Jilin, he was drinking with a large group of beautiful ladies at a nightclub.

Although Rong Yi no longer held an important position in the company, his influence over Rong Jilin had not diminished much because Rong Jilin was well aware that he was overshadowed by his elder brother in every aspect.

Hence, despite feeling dissatisfied with Rong Yi, he didn't dare to confront him head-on.

Besides, he still couldn't figure out how Rong Yi managed to find where he was.

After turning off the deafening music at the scene, Rong Yi gestured for the group of ladies to leave first.

Rong Jilin gave Rong Yi a cold glance as he complained, “Yi, you're getting more and more controlling. Can't I relax for a bit? I'm not a primary school student anymore. I don't have any homework to do!”

“Where is Nan Chen's child?” Rong Yi asked directly.

Rong Jilin's eyes flickered. “What do you mean? I don't understand.”

“Stop acting ignorant in front of me. Ouyang Li told me that you hid Nan Chen's child. Where are your principles, Rong Jilin? You started an attack on Nan Chen, and after they spare you, your way of repaying them is to go after their child? Are you still human?”

As Rong Yi spoke, he kicked a chair in anger.

It was exceedingly uncommon to witness Rong Yi so furious that day because he was typically known for his gentle demeanor. He rarely displayed it even if he was angry.

Rong Jilin pretended to be angry as well. “Yi, Ouyang Li is crazy. Why will you believe what she says? I've never seen Nan Chen's son! I have nothing to do with his disappearance.”

Grabbing Rong Jilin by the collar, Rong Yi asked, “Nan Chen has two children. How do you know that the one who disappeared is the son and not the daughter?”

Rong Jilin became even more flustered. “I... I simply guessed.” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Ouyang Li has already confessed, and you're still denying it? Do you think you can destroy the Nan family with such despicable means?” Rong Yi yelled angrily.

“Yi, this really has nothing to do with me. Why do you believe others instead of me? I'm your younger brother. Why do you always side with others? Besides, the Nan family is our enemy. Why are you so anxious about Nan Chen's child's disappearance?”

Rong Jilin gradually calmed down after his initial panic because he knew that the Nan family still had no evidence. Otherwise, the police would have already arrested him directly.

“Rong Jilin, take me to where you're hiding the kid and release him. He is just a young kid! Keeping him locked up could traumatize him for life! How can you do something so cruel and heartless?” Rong Yi scolded.

Rong Jilin lifted his glass of wine and took a sip. “Yi, don't you understand what I'm saying? I haven't seen that child. You've got the wrong person.”

“Fine, since you're so obstinate, then I have no other choice. If you don't hand over the child, I'll have you imprisoned!” Rong Yi's voice finally turned cold.

Rong Jilin laughed. “You're joking, right? If the Nan family had evidence, the police would have arrested me already instead of sending you to mediate. Stop scaring me. That won't work with me.”

Rong Yi pointed at Rong Jilin as he said, “I have no evidence of you kidnapping the child, but I do have evidence of you embezzling company funds for gambling. Even though you are a shareholder in the company, it doesn't give you the right to do that, not to mention that you took a significant amount of money! If I hand over the evidence to the police, you'll end up in jail as well.”

Rong Jilin finally panicked because he had indeed used the money to gamble abroad and lost a substantial amount of it.

At that time, he had no choice but to seek his mother's help, who used her private funds to replace the stolen funds.

They believed that no one else was aware of this matter until Rong Yi surprised him with the knowledge.

“Even if you've already paid back that money, you can still be convicted! And once this matter is exposed, you will never have a chance to return to the company again! Rong Jilin, will you listen to me?” Rong Yi shouted.

Rong Jilin gaped, speechless.

“If you still refuse to listen, the police will be coming to arrest you soon.” Then, Rong Yi turned and walked away.

“Yi, do you really have to help the Nan family? If that's the case, you will regret it!” Rong Jilin warned.

Rong Yi turned around. “What do you mean?”

Rong Jilin sneered. “If I really go to jail, I will never reveal the child's whereabouts. That child will be as good as dead!”

Rong Yi was momentarily stunned.

His younger brother had always been ruthless and capable of doing anything. Now that the child was still in his hands, it was indeed dangerous to act rashly.

Seeing that Rong Yi was stumped, Rong Jilin smiled triumphantly.

“So you admit that the child is with you?” Rong Yi asked.

“So what? The child's life is in my hands. If Nan Chen dares to act rashly, I'll make sure the child dies! Yi, don't forget you're a member of the Rong family. Why are you always siding with others? If Nan Chen and Ning Ran really want to resolve this, ask them to come to me. Although I say the child is with me, you have nothing to prove it, so don't you dare think about involving the police. If I'm in a bad mood, that child may not survive!” Rong Jilin said, bursting into laughter.

The place where Rong Jilin arranged to meet Nan Chen was an unfinished building on the outskirts.

It was a project started by a small real estate company in Flower City, but the boss abandoned the project due to a bad market and the dire financial situation faced by the company.

The relevant authorities then approached Nanshi Corporation and asked them to take over the project.

However, the debt from the project was complicated, and the procedures to take over the project were incomplete. The Nan family was still evaluating whether to accept it because the risks were high.

However, Rong Jilin saw it as an opportunity and proactively approached the relevant authorities to express his willingness to take over the project.

He believed that it would be some kind of success if he could snatch the project from the Nan family.

In the end, Rong Yi accompanied Nan Chen and Ning Ran to the building because he still couldn't trust his younger brother, Rong Jilin.

Rong Jilin felt annoyed seeing Rong Yi standing beside Nan Chen. “Yi, are you a b*stard of the Nan family? Why do you always stand on their side?”

Although his words were cruel, Rong Yi couldn't bring himself to respond with harsh words. He was a modest person, and this was his younger brother.

“Rong Jilin, stop doing such terrible things and release the child immediately!” he urged.

Rong Jilin replied impatiently, “Yi, why don't you go back first? I'll talk to Nan Chen and Ning Ran privately. It's not appropriate for you to be here.”

There was no way Rong Yi would leave the couple to deal with his brother alone. He had to intervene because he was concerned about the safety of Nan Chen and Ning Ran, and deep down, he didn't want Rong Jilin to choose a road of no return.

Rong Jilin was one step away from plunging into an abyss of self-destruction. Rong Yi had to stop that.

Although it would seem like Rong Jilin surrendered first, Rong Yi knew that kidnappers would not have a good ending.

Moreover, Rong Jilin was dealing with Nan Chen, who was not a pushover. He was the most powerful person in the city without a doubt.

Even if Nan Chen was acting cautiously for the sake of his child's safety, the Nan family would surely have ways to make Rong Jilin meet a tragic end.

Rong Yi couldn't bear to see Rong Jilin meet a tragic end. After all, he was his only younger brother.

“Rong Jilin, if you release my child, we'll agree to whatever conditions you have,” Ning Ran pleaded.

Rong Jilin smiled, feeling rather pleased with himself that Ning Ran and Nan Chen had fallen into his hands again.
