Nameless Nie led Ye Wanwan shopping here and there, occasionally buying some snacks and stuffing them in his mouth or holding them in his hands.
"Say, brother, have you eaten enough yet? We should prioritize investigating Dad and Mom's whereabouts first," Ye Wanwan said to Nameless Nie.
Nameless Nie glanced at her. "Nonsense! Of course I know that, but one can't function properly on an empty stomach. I'd starve terribly if I skipped a meal, so I have to eat my fill before I go and investigate."
"Then hurry and finish eating…" Ye Wanwan sighed.
"Wait here. I'll go to the corner to line up. That place's meat bun is seriously awesome; I'll bring one back for you." After saying that, Nameless Nie dashed off.
Watching Nameless Nie's departing figure, Ye Wanwan's lips twitched. It was Dad and Mom's wisest decision to refrain from pa.s.sing the position of family head to him.
…
Ye Wanwan was about to call Si Yehan and explain the current situation to him when a big group of trained experts appeared and quickly surrounded her.
The leader was none other than Nie Linglong.
"Sister, where are you going? You made me search quite hard for you," Nie Linglong expressionlessly stated.
"Oh? Did you need to see me for something urgent, Sister?" Ye Wanwan remained calm and collected.
"There's nothing urgent, but as you know, Sister, I just became the family head of the Nie family and need to establish some achievements. And President Fearless once stole a large quant.i.ty of confidential information and rare treasures many years ago, so the higher-ups of the Nie family have decided to punish President Fearless… Have you seen President Fearless perchance, Sister?" Nie Linglong stared at Ye Wanwan, an icy smile spreading across her mouth.
"What a coincidence." Ye Wanwan met Nie Linglong's eyes. "I, your sister, am the President Fearless you're searching for."
Nie Linglong nodded. "Look at my memory, Sister—I forgot about your ident.i.ty as President Fearless… However, one thing at a time. Sisterhood is sisterhood and business is business."
"Business your mother!"
A harsh shout was heard from the back of the group, and before anyone could see how Nameless Nie was moving, he kicked and sent seven or eight people flying away.
Nameless Nie walked to Ye Wanwan with a meat bun in his mouth.
Ye Wanwan: "…" Look at the situation; can't you eat later?
"Nameless Nie, this matter originally had nothing to do with you, but since you're acting disrespectfully toward the head of the Nie family and sheltering President Fearless, you're now accountable for the same crime. Submit yourself to arrest immediately," Nie Linglong coldly said.
"Nie Linglong…" Nameless Nie's bone-chilling gaze landed on Nie Linglong. "Have you… gotten something wrong…? Do you know who I am?"
"I'm rather interested. Tell me, who are you?" Nie Linglong snorted.
"I am… Nameless Nie."
As Nameless Nie said that, he lightly swung his fist and in a flash, the experts standing next to Nie Linglong flew backward like snipped kites.
Ye Wanwan's heart trembled as she looked at Nameless Nie. The current Nameless Nie gave her… a completely different feeling…
Was this how her eldest brother acted when he was serious…?
This Nameless Nie in front of her and the Nameless Nie in her memories were like two completely different people.
"Hmph, take him down!" Nie Linglong ordered.
Countless experts instantly surrounded Nameless Nie.
Nameless Nie stood unmoving in his spot, and Ye Wanwan couldn't see how he attacked.
Nevertheless, a few breaths later, a dozen or so people had fallen.
