Lu Yining had heard many rumors about his sister during the time he stayed in Country F instead of his sister.
Among them, there are indeed many who praise her talent and wisdom. But the ones who abused her were even more ruthless.
It's just that after hearing so many things about Lu Dingning, Lu Yining only feels sorry for his sister.
Because, he can feel that wisdom, cruelty, and so on are all just his sister's camouflage...
"Dylan, have you found your location?"
"I found it. The location is..." Lu Dingning saw the location displayed on the tablet, and his charming phoenix eyes suddenly narrowed: "Clive Manor!"
But just when Lu Dingning mentioned this location, the atmosphere in the whole room became extremely depressed.
Even William, who was still in the mood to chat with Lu Dingning about other things before, became quiet at this moment.
On Lu Dingning's side, there was a terrifying cold aura spreading all over his body.
It would be fine if Shu Zhilan fell into the hands of other people, but it would be quite bad if it fell into the hands of old man Clive.
"Ning Ning, is the situation very bad?" During Lu Yining's visit to country F, the old man Clive did not do anything, so Lu Yining was not very clear about the grievances between the Clive family and Lu Dingning.
But Lu Yining didn't know that the peace during this period was bought by Lu Dingning by kidnapping Clive's youngest son, Donald.
"It's not very bad, but quite bad. Old Clive is a lunatic..." It was not Lu Dingning who responded to Lu Yining. It's William on the side.
During this process, William abused the old Clive with all kinds of swear words, and planned to introduce to Lu Yining the grievances and grievances between the Clive family and Lu Dingning.
However, before William could say these things, Lu Dingning had already said: "William, go to our old place and bring Donald with you. As for the others, don't bring them." The other two words refer to It was Zong Jize. Lu Dingning didn't say anything, she believed that William, who had worked with him for many years, would understand.
Hearing Lu Dingning mentioning Donald, William asked again: "Dylan, what are we packing him for?"
Right now, the lady is still in the hands of old Clive.
At this time, shouldn't they try to get Madam back?
Why did Lu Dingning want to do something to Donald?
Could it be that Lu Dingning planned to exchange Donald for his wife?
Although this method seems feasible, in William's view, it is always a bit risky.
"I'm going to be a guest at Clive Manor, so of course I have to bring some souvenirs." When Lu Dingning said this, he was already standing in front of her exclusive locker.
During her absence, Will bought her quite a few new clothes.
Lu Dingning picked out a very bright pink shirt, a white suit jacket, and the same white trousers.
After choosing these, Lu Dingning stood in front of the decoration cabinet again, and picked out a valuable Patek Philippe watch and a black dark pattern tie from it.
When Lu Dingning was doing these things, Lu Yining stood by her side.
"Ningning, can't you just let them get people here to exchange?"
Lu Yining's thoughts were also in the hearts of other people.
Instead of negotiating on other people's turf, it is better to let them negotiate on their own turf. In this case, at least not passive.
But how could Lu Dingning fail to think of this problem that Lu Yining could think of?
Besides, old Clive was no fool.
With Shu Zhilan as the bargaining chip, he would definitely not leave Clive Manor casually, turning the advantage he had so hard to gain into a disadvantage.
"Brother, old man Clive won't agree." When Lu Dingning said this, he had already gestured to himself in front of the mirror with the whole set of clothes he had picked out, and after confirming that the match was okay, Lu Dingning Ding Ning threw a whole set of clothes on the bed.
It's not that Lu Dingning still has the mind to toss about these things at such a critical juncture, but years of negotiation experience told her that the more disadvantaged she is, the more she can't mess herself up.
Since she was going to the battlefield, of course she had to choose a better shirt.
Besides, in case she really can't come back, at least she can dress nicely when she dies, right?
Since Lu Dingning returned, he has never told Lu Yining how bad the situation is this time.
But Lu Yining was not blind, he could still tell something from the solemn expressions of his sister and William.
Because of this, Lu Yining suddenly picked up the pink shirt that Lu Dingning put on the bed, and said, "Ningning, let me go."
Lu Dingning hasn't stopped for a moment since she came in, and anyone can tell that she intends to enter Clive Manor in person.
Knowing that this might be life-threatening, how could Lu Yining let her go like this?
Lu Dingning, who was wiping off the lipstick on his mouth in the mirror, looked at Lu Yining from the mirror.
Then, she smiled.
Lu Dingning, who hadn't had time to take off that wig yet, even without the lipstick decoration on his face, still had a charming smile.
In this way, she looks like all the girls in the world need care and care.
But it was such a girl who said to Lu Yining, "Brother, don't talk stupidly. You don't understand the situation of the Clive family at all, and it won't help if you pass."
"But Ningning..." Lu Yining still disagreed, and planned to say something to stop her.
But at this moment, Lu Dingning suddenly looked out the window.
"Brother, when Mom and I first entered this house, life was really difficult. Mom was often bullied by the servants here because of me."
Lu Dingning's eyes were a little dull, as if he saw another time and space through the window.
The past that Lu Dingning told about was also the most difficult time for Shu Zhilan.
At that time, Shu Zhilan was bullied not only by her stepson, but also by the servants at home.
At the beginning of the period, Lu Dingning found the scar on her body, and she insisted that she accidentally bumped into it.
It wasn't until later, when Lu Dingning witnessed Shu Zhilan being pushed into the corner of the wall, that her forehead was bruised and bleeding profusely, that Shu Zhilan admitted that she was bullied by those people.
It was also that scene that made the young Lu Dingning aspire to be the leader of the Smith family, and made everyone dare not bully her mother again.
"You said at this time, how could I ignore her?"
Lu Dingning believed that when Clive took Shu Zhilan away, he must be waiting for her to pass by.
In this situation, if she didn't go there in person, the old man would definitely torture Shu Zhilan in different ways.
"But how can I ignore you? If you want to go, let's go together." For Lu Yining, this multiple-choice question is really cruel. On one side is his mother, on the other side is his sister...
Honestly, he doesn't want to lose either. But in this case, he is very likely to lose two.
If he really wants to lose, then he would rather go with them.
