But it's not too late now, Lu Ming made up his mind, if something happened to Yuan Ziyuan, within a month, Mantie Mansion and all the people inside would be wiped out and buried for Yuan Ziyuan.

As Sheng Youde said, he doesn't care about diplomatic disasters or a war between China and Japan. Since there will be a war sooner or later, it should be detonated as soon as possible.

"Go back and wait for the news. I see that Ming Zhu has been fidgeting these days, so it's hard for her." Sheng Youde said.

Lu Ming saluted, exited the study, returned to his room, and immediately packed up his things to leave.

Yuan Mingzhu was overjoyed when she got permission to leave the Lingering Garden, jumping up and down like a bird released from its cage.

After leaving the gate of the Lingering Garden, she looked back, wondering, "You said my sister often lives here, why doesn't she feel bored? Thinking of her marrying here in the future, I can't bear it for her." Panic."

Lu Ming laughed and said, "You're not Yuan Ziyuan, how do you know how she feels? Maybe she thinks this is the most comfortable place."

"Where did this Yuan Ziyuan go? What's the fun of being alone? He won't come back during the Chinese New Year. Could something have happened?" When Yuan Ziyuan was mentioned, Yuan Mingzhu began to worry again.

"It's okay, I guess she thinks the same as us, she doesn't want to get married right away, and come back after playing alone." Lu Ming said perfunctorily.

"That's right, no wonder she ran out after a fight with Sheng Di." Yuan Mingzhu said to herself.

"Don't worry, she must have encountered a fun place. Good mountains and rivers, delicious food and drink, so don't worry." Lu Ming said with a guilty conscience.

Yuan Mingzhu nodded and smiled happily.

What Lu Ming said was not entirely a lie, Yuan Ziyuan was indeed staying in one place, and there was no pain or grievance, but he lost his personal freedom temporarily.

Lu Ming was really worried at first. The situation Huang Yanning described only showed that Yuan Ziyuan was still alive, but it was still unknown whether something unexpected would happen.

Now with the promise from the president of Mitsubishi, Yuan Ziyuan's personal safety is basically guaranteed.However, the Japanese military skipped Ozawa and used professionals to kidnap Yuan Ziyuan, which must have been ordered by someone important.

So what was the purpose? It was nothing more than wanting to take advantage of Yuan Ziyuan's kidnapping to force Sheng Muyi to show up.

This is of course Lu Ming's conjecture, and the reasons behind it may only be fully unraveled when Yuan Ziyuan returns.

Lu Ming took Yuan Mingzhu to meet Zhang Ziyang and Cailian, and brought Ning Xiner to have dinner together.

"You finally thought of your buddy. How are you doing with Mingzhu these days? Have you planted any seeds?" Zhang Ziyang winked.

Yuan Mingzhu didn't understand at first, but when she understood, she grabbed Zhang Ziyang's neck and beat him hard.

"It's right, it's right, let him be cheap." Cai Lian applauded from the side.

Ning Xin'er pursed her lips and smiled without saying a word. Since the arms incident was settled, she changed her previous aloof style. When she was with Lu Ming and the others, she smiled more and talked more.

It was only then that Lu Ming realized that her aloofness was not due to her natural personality, but rather that she didn't think highly of them.

"Boy, just watch your daughter-in-law bullying others and don't care about it." Zhang Ziyang yelled.

"I can't control this kind of thing, you're doing it yourself." Lu Ming smiled at Cailian and Ning Xin'er without looking at him.

Yuan Mingzhu got tired after beating for a while, so she had to let go. Zhang Ziyang was too thick-skinned to be able to beat at all.

"By the way, to be serious, what have you been up to these days? Why can't you see anyone?" Zhang Ziyang asked.

"I'm not busy, Mingzhu and I were forced by President Sheng to stay in Lingering Garden for the New Year." Lu Ming pretended to be helpless.

"That's right, I've been suffocated for the past few days, so I have to relax a little bit. After drinking, let's go to Paramount to dance." Yuan Mingzhu said and danced.

"Okay, I haven't danced for a long time." Ning Xiner naturally raised her hands in approval.

"Does Paramount not have a holiday for Chinese New Year?" Zhang Ziyang wondered.

"What kind of holiday do they have? The Chinese New Year is the time when the most people dance and make the most money." Ning Xiner said.

Lu Ming and Zhang Ziyang don't like dancing very much, but Yuan Mingzhu and Ning Xin'er are arguing to go, and they can't stop them. For the Chinese New Year, happiness is the most important thing.

Cailian doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if she dances or not, she is used to socializing anyway, and can find a way to make herself feel comfortable in any occasion.

Everyone drank and ate in a hurry, and then drove three cars to Paramount.

When I arrived at Paramount, I saw that it was indeed a scene of singing and dancing. There were all kinds of cars parked in front of the gate, most of which were rickshaws. Even in Shanghai, cars are still rare.

After entering the ballroom, Lu Ming got busy and took turns dancing with Ning Xiner and Yuan Mingzhu. Zhang Ziyang and Cailian didn't end up watching them dance.

"Hey, doesn't Ms. Ning have a special backup dancer at Paramount?" Zhang Ziyang asked Yuan Mingzhu casually seeing how hard it was for Lu Ming to dance with Ning Xiner.

"Don't talk nonsense, that person is gone." Yuan Mingzhu hissed immediately.

"Why did the person disappear?" Zhang Ziyang didn't understand what Yuan Mingzhu meant.

"If you don't ask, don't ask. Where did all this nonsense come from?" Yuan Mingzhu said impatiently.

Zhang Ziyang had no choice but to shut up obediently.There must be a story in it, and Yuan Mingzhu would definitely not tell him what happened, and it would be boring to ask again.

Lu Ming, who was busy on the dance floor, also thought of this question. He looked around, trying to find the tall and thin figure among the dancing crowd.

"Don't look, that person is no longer here." Ning Xiner said lightly.

"Uh, who's not here..." Lu Ming stopped in the middle of his sentence.

"Pretending to be confused, I know who you are looking for, my previous dance partner, but he has already left here, goodbye forever." Ning Xiner sighed.

"What's the matter, what happened?" Lu Ming murmured in his heart, since Mingzhu had never heard of it.

"It's nothing, it's because I don't know people well, so I fell for their tricks." Ning Xiner shook her head and made a chic dance move.

"Ah, he lied to you? You must be too courageous. Where is this person now?" Lu Ming said angrily.

"I only found out later that this person is Gao Leping, who was sent by the Wuhan government to approach me to achieve their goals." Ning Xiner sighed.

"Wuhan government? That's Mr. Wang's person. How do you know that his identity is a disguise? Did he tell you the truth?" Lu Ming asked puzzled.

"His identity was found out by my brother. Originally, he just wanted to check whether he was a decent person, but it turned out that he had a background in Wuhan." Ning Xiner said sadly.

"If you have a background, you have a background. Maybe someone really likes you. That's not a contradiction." Lu Ming doesn't know the situation of Mr. Wang in Wuhan, and he really hopes that Ning Xiner can find his right husband.

"Mr. Wang also wants to occupy a piece of land in Shanghai, but the Qinghong Gang has long been taken down by the Nanjing government, Mr. Jiang, so Mr. Wang has no choice but to take the next best thing and want to take over our Caobang's territory. Unfortunately, he is too impatient. Because of one incident, I exposed myself." Ning Xiner said.

"Oh, let me guess, it's because of the arms smuggling?" Lu Ming immediately understood.

"What a ghost, I guessed it right away. I was also wondering at the time, how could it be discovered by the customs? The plan was very careful. I didn't expect that he did something wrong and made a big mess, almost ruining the Cao Gang. , if it wasn't for you, there would be no gang in Shanghai now." Ning Xiner said, with tears in her eyes.

"Caobang is an auspicious person with his own heaven, and I just helped." Lu Ming said aloud.

"By the way, my brother invited you home for dinner, and he wants to thank you grandly." Ning Xiner smiled.

This sounds so strange, why do you want to invite me to dinner when I go home?Want to be grand again?Lu Ming could only smile wryly in his heart, he was a son-in-law who didn't recognize him before, but only now.

"No need, we're all a family, so you're welcome." Lu Ming said with a smile.

"Don't be shy, who is your family, ah, no, I said the wrong thing..." Ning Xin'er's face was flushed, her dancing steps were messed up, she stepped on Lu Ming's feet several times, and it was still Lu Ming's powerful arm that drove her. She just corrected it.

Ning Xiner's brain was short-circuited for a while, and she thought that Lu Ming was talking about her family. In fact, Lu Ming's family was referring to his relationship with Yuan Mingzhu.

Ning Xiner was so ashamed that she really wanted to find a crack in the floor to slip in, but unfortunately the dance floor was full of floors, so there was no crack to slip in at all.
