Chapter 396: 373 Ying Zijin takes action: The Yu Family could be finished [1 more update]
The Nie Family owns another large villa within the Second Ring, and because of work reasons, most of the family members live in the city area.
After handing over the company to Nie Chao, Old Master Nie had essentially retired, so he returned to the old house.
With the year-end approaching, some of the servants had gone home.
It was now evening, and Old Master Nie sat alone in the living room reading the newspaper.
A few female cooks bustled about in the kitchen, preparing late-night snacks for Nie Chao.
Old Master Nie wasn’t expecting Nie Chao.
Nie Chao had a key and could open the door himself.
The Nie family was strict, and he would never knock in such a manner.
Old Master Nie was rather perplexed.
It wasn’t until he opened the door that he saw the person lying on the ground.
That middle-aged man’s palm strike had already severely injured Nie Chao.
The three youngsters had brought him all the way here without any protective measures, which had aggravated his injuries.
To ensure that Nie Chao wouldn’t die, the middle-aged man had left a trace of Inner Strength in his body to protect his vital meridians.
However, this Inner Strength would soon dissipate, and once it did, it was almost impossible to save him.
Nie Chao was, after all, the heir of the Nie Family; he couldn’t truly die at their hands. If he were to die, it would have to be in a hospital.
Nie Chao lay silently on the steps, his face completely devoid of color, with fresh blood trickling down from the corner of his mouth.
Old Master Nie had seen his share of tough times and had sustained all sorts of injuries during his youth while out gaining experience.
If he were injured, it would hurt, but he could endure it.
But this was different.
This was his grandson.
Tears, in that instant, began to well up.
In fact, Nie Chao didn’t know that sometimes Old Master Nie was more partial to him because with Nie Yi shouldering the family, it was good enough for Nie Chao to live his life cheerfully.
Old Master Nie squatted down shakily, reaching out his hand but not daring to touch: “You little rascal?”
Nie Chao didn’t respond.
His breath hung by a thread.
“Old Master Nie!” The butler came over from the other side of the garden; he had just finished instructing the gardener.
As soon as he was done, he saw this scene, and his whole being shook like a thunderclap: “Old Master Nie, the Second Young Master, he…”
Being the heir to the Nie Family, there were plenty who had their eyes on attacking Nie Chao.
There were people who would specifically hire assassins, sharpshooters, and many hunters to kill him in the shadows, but they were all at the bottom of the list – the Nie Family could handle them.
