Chapter 352 Brother and Sister

“If I’m not your sister, who would be your sister?”

Ding Qianlie forcibly pushed down the embarrassment and excitement in her heart and spoke with slight coquettishness. Silently, she thanked that he was unconsciousness when they dual-cultivated and did not remember her face. Otherwise, she would die of embarrassment.

Ding Ning didn’t know what to do with his hands and scratched the back of his head. Wiping his tears, he smiled dazedly and called out with emotion, “Sister!”

The corner of Knife Scar’s mouth twitched slightly and he disappeared silently into the darkness. He had to ensure no one discovered such a scene. His people were already spread out and were on guard at all times.

“So good!”

Ding Qianlie had never seen Ding Ning behave like a child. Her face glowed with maternal care and she wanted to affectionately rub his head but found that he was too tall and she could not reach.

Ding Ning obediently bent down and allowed her to rub his head with an expression of admiration. A powerful sense of familial affection rose in his heart.

Ding Qianlie’s smile was like a blooming flower. While Ding Ning was unaware, she stuck out her tongue at a white Hummer stopped not far away and made a scary face.

In the Hummer, Aunt Xiang’s face was covered in tears. She stared dazedly at Ding Ning’s handsome face and did not blink at all as if she could never see enough.

“Sister, I don’t even know your name yet. Oh, right, why didn’t you live with our father and me? Also, do you know who our mother is? What is her name? What does she look like? Has she already passed away or...”

For the first time in his life, Ding Ning voluntarily took the arm of a woman. As if he was a book of 100,000 questions, he opened his mouth and a chain of questions came out.

Ding Qianlie sighed gently. “My name is Ding Qianlie. I am the chairman of Longteng Group. As for mother, you will find out in the future. I can only tell you that mother is alive and well. Do you blame mother?”

This question was for Aunt Xiang. Through a wireless microphone, Aunt Xiang could clearly hear everything they said.

Aunt Xiang wiped her tears and stared anxiously at Ding Ning. She wanted to know how he would reply.

“Mother is still alive? That’s great. Growing up, father would not tell me.”

Ding Ning did not hide his expression of surprise at all and immediately said, with relief, “I’ve imagined mother’s face countless times but I could not imagine it. I always thought mother passed away or was divorced. No matter what, I don’t believe there is any mother in the world who does not love her children. Since mother will not see me, she must have her difficulties. How could I blame her?”

Aunt Xiang covered her mouth and was sobbing silently. Tears blurred her vision and she wanted nothing more than to rush out there and hug him tightly, to make up for the mother’s love that had been absent for more than two decades.

But her remaining reason told her that she could not do that. The joy of a moment would expose Ding Ning’s identity and place him in great danger. This was a situation she would not allow to happen. She could only look distantly at the son she had parted with more than two decades ago and clench her fist tightly.

Because her nails dug too deep into her palm, blood seeped out but she did not feel any trace of pain. All she could see right now was the tall and upright figure. In a low voice, she muttered, “My child, wait a bit longer. Trust me, it won’t be long before our family reunites.”

Ding Qianlie felt her heart ache. The more tolerantly Ding Ning spoke, the more she hurt. She stretched out a hand and pulled him into her arms. By his ear, she quietly said, “Brother, mother loves you dearly and misses you greatly. But she has her difficulties. She has always worked hard for our family to reunite. Trust me.”

“Sister, I am not a kid anymore. What is happening? Why is no one willing to tell me? At least, you can tell me mother’s name, right?”

Even though she was his sister, Ding Qianlie’s soft and alluring woman’s body made Ding Ning feel uncomfortable. Calmly, he struggled out of her embrace and spoke with some anger.

Ding Qianlie sensed his uncomfortableness and her face blushed slightly. In a soft voice, she said, “It’s for your own good that you are not being told. Whether it’s father or mother, they all want to protect you. You will know mother’s name later. Be good and wait a bit more. One day, our family will reunite.”

Ding Ning opened his mouth. He wanted to push some more but thinking that they had just met today, he did not want them to part on bad terms so he could only suppress the curiosity in his heart and agree unhappily.

“Oh, right, brother, this is my number. Don’t carry all your problems yourself. If you have any problems, call me. Longteng Group is yours. I am just helping you manage it. Once you’re grown up, I will hand it over to you.”

Ding Qianlie took out an old-fashioned business card and handed it to him.

Ding Ning accepted the business card and carefully put it away. With a light laugh, he said, “Longteng Group is all of your hard work, so I won’t take it. Besides, I have no interest in running a company.”

“That’s not acceptable. For our family to reunite, not only do we need powerful martial support, we also need sufficient wealth and power. Otherwise, our family’s enemies will crush us into dust.”

Ding Qianlie’s voice was both anxious and gratified when she spoke. She had singlehandedly created Longteng Group and had put all of her heart and soul into it. Although she knew long ago that the company belonged to Ding Ning, it would be a lie to say that she was completely comfortable with it. Ding Ning’s attitude right now dispersed that smudge of bad feeling.

“Sister, I am really not one to run a company. I much prefer curing illness, saving people, and doing research. We are siblings, what need is there for such separation? What is yours is mine and what is mine is yours, right?”

Ding Ning said with a smile. “Besides, I am preparing to open a pharmaceutical company myself. Compared to other industries, I am better at researching medicine and creating new medicines.”

“It’s not just medicine, right? My brother is the famous Master of the Divine Burin.”

Ding Qianlie saw his resolution and did not argue further, instead, she spoke teasingly.

Ding Ning was startled but immediately remembered that his sister had been keeping an eye on him. It was not strange for her to know he was the Master of the Divine Burin. Embarrassed, he scratched his head. “You know all about it?”

“Yes, I’ve known it for a long time. To support you, I spent 2.3 billion dollars to win your Moonlight Lion.”

Ding Qianlie laughed briefly.

Unexpectedly, Ding Ning immediately felt a pang in his heart and his face twisted when he heard that she had spent 2.3 billion to win his jade carving. “Sister, if you want jade carvings, I’ll carve them for you. Why spend 2.3 billion to win it? Such a waste.”

“As long as I think it’s worth it, it’s fine. My brother’s creations are worth this price. In the future, you should make something every now and then. Don’t carve too many though, then they won’t be worth anything.”

Ding Qianlie said with a smile. What she didn’t tell Ding Ning was that she had two reasons for bidding such a high price for the Moonlight Lion. One, she was preparing a stepping stone for her mother to negotiate with the old man of the Su family. Second, she was purposely raising the Master of the Divine Burin’s value. The higher his value, the smoother Ding Ning’s path will be in the future.

As an elite in the professional world, of course, she knew that scarcity created value. Hunger marketing was king. Once the Master of the Divine Burin’s creations were everywhere, they would not be worth anything.

“Yes, I know. Oh, right, sister, if you like jade carvings, I’ll give you a few later.”

Although Ding Ning just met Ding Qianlie, he could feel her sincere love and care and his heart felt warmed. He wanted to express something but was unable to find the words.

He wanted to gift her a jade carving but he didn’t have any good materials on hand and he could not bring himself to use lesser quality jadeite. Suddenly, he thought of the red coral that he got from the bottom of the sea and his eyes immediately brightened.

Although the mutated coral was very useful in making differentiating medicine, he was never stingy when it came to his friends and family. It didn’t take much material to make a few carvings, even if it was all used up, he would not mind at all. In his heart, affection was priceless and nothing could compare to it.

“Alright, I’ve already prepared the Glass Type, it’s just waiting for you.”

Ding Qianlie remembered that she had spent of lot of money and effort to purchase the Glass Types. Even though she did had no lack of money, there were a number of big projects that the company was about to begin so there was not that much extra money. In order to buy the Glass Type, she had spent a few hundred million and it still hurt her a little.

“I have to give my sister the best; Glass Type is not enough.”

Ding Ning waved his hand with a majestic air. He was speaking truthfully. Compared to red coral of the highest grade, Glass Type was nothing.

However, Ding Qianlie suddenly opened her mouth wide and said uncomfortably, “But I’ve already bought the Glass Type.”

“What?!”

Ding Ning paused then smiled and said, “It’s fine that you’ve bought it. How about this, I’ll also carve the Glass Type, you can keep it to give it as a gift or to sell it. I’ll also carve two items from the red coral of the highest grade coral. It will be my meeting gift to you.”

“Red coral of the highest grade?”

Ding Qianlie frowned in distress. “The red coral of the highest grade is sold by the gram. It’s not that I can’t afford it, but the key matter is that it’s difficult to buy.”

“Buy? Why should we buy it? How can I have you provide the materials when it’s my gift? I have the red coral of the highest grade on hand. No, I should say that it’s better than the red coral of the highest grade. I’ll carve it tonight and give it to you tomorrow.”

Ding Ning looked at Ding Qianlie’s beautiful face and sighed in his heart. This face was really very familiar. Was this the so-called instinctive connection between blood-relatives?

“Then I’ll send someone to pick you up tomorrow. Now that we have met each other, after you’ve finished developing the medicine, move in and live with me.”

Ding Qianlie couldn’t help but say. She looked at Ding Ning’s deep-set eyes and felt a wave of admiration in her heart. It was time to deepen her connection to her future husband. Thinking of this, a light blush rose to her face.

“I... alright!”

Ding Ning scratched his head. Looking at Ding Qianlie’s eager gaze, he did not have the heart to reject her, but what about Luoxue? Immediately, he boldly asked, “Sister, I adopted a younger sister. Can I bring her with me?”

“Come together. Is your sister not also my sister? However, you have more than one younger sister, right? I remember you had a pair of twin younger sisters.”

Ding Qianlie said mischievously.

“Ahem...”

Ding Ning coughed awkwardly. “Ye Huan and Ye Le were born into pitiful situations. I just gave them a hand, and it’s not what you think...”

“I know, you’ve even bought a garden house in Spring All the Year Round City. You’re hiding beauties in a golden home.”

Ding Qianlie covered her mouth with a light laugh but a sourness rose in her heart.

“No, it’s really not what you think. I just treat them like sisters.”

Ding Ning’s face turned red. Buying the sisters a garden house did indeed lack foresight. He should have just bought a normal apartment. By buying a garden house, no one would believe him if he said he had no other motives.

“Alright, there’s no need to explain to me. My brother is so handsome, so it’s normal for girls to like you. Don’t think I’m stingy. I’ve given you your meeting gift long ago but you’ve given the garden house and Cayenne to others. Ah, you really don’t take my affection seriously.”

Ding Qianlie said with some resentment.

Ding Ning suddenly remembered the prize he mysteriously won. A bright light flashed through his mind and he yelped, “Longteng Group developed the Spring All the Year Round City? Did you also arrange the prize?”
