Chapter 49: Nick Nie's past

By Mason Vale · 2454 words

Kai Wei went to the meeting alone, weak and nervous. The only thing that could support him was not the knife in his hand, but the certificate of "intermittent brief mental disorder".

In 2026, one bad screenshot could outrun the truth before anyone even unlocked their phone.

There was a hurried knock on the door. Kai Wei frowned, crumpled up Chen Ating's rivalanese flag and put it back into his bag, and then put the entire leather bag on his back.

At this time, Kai Wei noticed Chen Ating's sudden change in expression.

There must be something to check in the bag, Kai Wei felt secretly happy.

Kai Wei pulled Chen Ating up, "go and open the door" and swung the knife tightly against her back.

Chen Ating walked to the door in fear.

The double door was kicked open, and Chen Ating, who had already reached the door, was hit on the head by the door panel and was about to fall back.

Of course Kai Wei had seen in advance that the door was kicked open, Chen Ating was knocked down by the door, and then her body hit the swinging knife.

Kai Wei withdrew his knife in advance and pulled back Chen Ating. If this ability hadn't been shown in the future, Chen Ating would have been either dead or seriously injured.

The leader who came in was indeed Lao Meng, followed by several menacing gangsters armed with knives and sticks.

While Kai Wei gestured at Chen Ating with a knife, he unfolded the "Intermittent Brief Mental Disorder" certificate with his other hand.

As soon as the gangsters saw this evidence, their previous momentum instantly weakened. Although they all came out to fool around, no one was willing to risk their lives and lawsuits. Their original intention was just to save Chen Ating and teach Kai Wei a lesson. No normal person would dare to kill anyone unless he was absolutely powerful.

Lao Meng was quite dissatisfied with their performance, "Hey, why don't you save my aunt?"

"How can we save him?" one of the thugs said embarrassedly.

Lao Meng is also worried. A person with "intermittent brief mental disorder" may not dare to kill someone, but a person with a certificate of "intermittent brief mental disorder" will definitely dare.

"You all, come in," Kai Wei said, raising his voice.

Calm, Calm Kai Wei kept hinting to himself that he was nervous to death, but he must not show it.

Lao Meng and the gangsters had no choice but to obey Kai Wei's instructions and walked in one after another. Kai Wei slowly walked around them, came to the door, and slammed the door.

Kai Wei shouted to Lin Shuanghuan at the front desk again, "Press the elevator button for me."

"Fuck you!" Lin Shuanghuan's performance was really surprising. Didn't she regard Chen Ating as one of her own?

Helpless, Kai Wei opened the door again, "Old Meng, come out and press the elevator button for me. Anyone else dares to come out within ten minutes. I will stab this woman to death. After stabbing her to death, I will fight you desperately. You have a heart to beat people, but I have a heart to kill. Let's see who is afraid of whom."

The thugs were moved. The person in front of them was not very scary, but the certificate was indeed frightening.

Lao Meng walked out angrily. Kai Wei closed the door and followed him to the elevator door. Lao Meng pressed the elevator button according to Kai Wei's instructions.

It was not commuting time at this time, the elevator was unused, and there was no one else inside. They went directly to the twelfth floor where they were. The elevator door had just opened. Kai Wei did not rush in. Instead, when he felt that the door was about to close, he pushed Chen Ating towards Lao Meng, and then got into the elevator.

The elevator door slowly closed, and Lao Meng chased in while calling people, but still couldn't catch up.

Kai Wei did not press floor 1 in the elevator, but pressed floor 2 because he was worried about someone ambushing him at the elevator entrance on the first floor, and there was a distance between the walking stairs and the elevator in this building. To ensure safety, he planned to take the elevator to the second floor and then use the walking steps to go downstairs.

When the elevator door opened, Kai Wei pressed the buttons for each floor below the twelfth floor before he came out. He thought to himself: He wants to chase me, so just wait.

Kai Wei finally left the commercial building safely. The first thing he did was to contact Nick Nie and ask him to provide him with accommodation. After all, he had openly offended Guan Laoer, Chen Ating and others. He would definitely not dare to return to the rental house. Chloe Chang was still in the hospital and was protected by Nick Nie's men. He felt relieved. He had to go to Nick Nie to be safe.

Nick Nie guided Kai Wei to his private villa. This manor was equipped with security guards, gardeners, housekeepers, and cleaners. Kai Wei secretly envied the life of the rich.

The name of the villa is Xiaofeng Villa, which makes Kai Wei a little confused. Nick Nie's surname is Nie. Why doesn't his villa have the surname Feng after his own surname? However, does the surname Feng exist?

The security guard at the door was very professional. No matter how close Kai Wei's words were to Nick Nie, he was not allowed to enter, not even by calling. In the end, Nick Nie personally picked Kai Wei up from the door.

The villa is three stories high, with a split-level interior. A huge crystal chandelier hangs on the three-story roof, and there are various crystal, gold and silver decorations and jade utensils in the hall.

After scanning it at a glance, Kai Wei felt in his heart: waste

Nick Nie invited Kai Wei to sit at a small glass table and sat opposite him. Then the butler served tea and water, and the service was comprehensive.

Kai Wei first praised this villa.

Nick Nie shook his head and smiled, "Do you think it's too luxurious?"

Kai Wei said, "For us poor people, of course it is a luxury, but for rich people like you, it may be just a fraction." Although Kai Wei received Liu Laoding's 60 million deposit, his poor mentality has been deeply ingrained and he often forgets about it.

"You praise me too much." Nick Nie took a sip of tea. "I cherish every penny and every corner of my property. I always only spend money on useful things."

Kai Wei looked around the mansion and then thought about Nick Nie's Rolls-Royce, knowing full well that the other party was pretending to be aloof.

"Why, you don't seem to believe what I said."

"I don't really believe it," Kai Wei said, but in fact he said in his heart, "I'm a fool to believe you."

"Hehehehe" Nick Nie chuckled a few times and raised his hand to push back his long white hair, "Are you curious about my mansion and luxury car? Haha, I built the mansion in memory of a relative of mine, and the good car is to have face when discussing business with others. When you have face, others will give you more face."

Kai Wei could hear this, especially the sentence: Only when you have face, others will give you more face. Kai Wei had previously made up his mind to get rid of his bad habit of saving face. After hearing these words, he realized that face is sometimes very important. So, he had no idea whether to change this problem or not.

Kai Wei was even more curious that what Nick Nie said about commemorating a relative was the "Xiao Feng" in the name of the villa. What kind of relative did he want to use a mansion to commemorate? With this question, Kai Wei asked Nick Nie.

Nick Nie, who was sitting upright, took a sip of water and leaned back on the chair. Looking at his posture, Kai Wei knew that he must be telling a long story.

Nick Nie recounted the past, "When I was about four years old, I was sold to a human trafficker by my parents. Later, the traffickers sold me to a group of evil people who forced people to beg. From the age of four to seven, they forced me to beg. From the age of eight to ten, they forced me to steal. At the age of ten, I escaped from their gang. I then wandered around, living by begging, and suffered from people's cold looks and cold words. I was desperate, my hair turned gray overnight, and I was about to jump into the river to die. At this time, a young man rescued me and adopted me. Do you know what he taught me first after he adopted me?"

"Writing is either ideological and moral education. After all, you grew up among bad people, so your mind must be a little evil." Kai Wei said. At the same time, I murmured in my heart, it turns out that his hair is the same as Wu Zixu's, and I thought he dyed it deliberately to show off.

Nick Nie shook his head, "He taught me how to swim first, saying that this way, I would not commit suicide by jumping into the river."

Kai Wei nodded repeatedly, "He cares so much about the life of a stranger. He is such a good person."

"He is indeed a good person. After I learned to swim, as you said, he first gave me ideological and moral education, and then asked his sister to teach me how to read and write."

"His sister"

"Yes, his sister was five years older than me. She was in junior high school at the time, and she taught me every day after school. Later, she went to high school, which was far away and needed accommodation, so she couldn't teach me anymore. Then he sent me to school. I had done well in self-study, so I went directly to the third grade. I really enjoyed the life of having relatives, but when I was seventeen years old."

At this point, Nick Nie's hands began to shake, and Kai Wei saw it, and something must have happened at this time. Considering that Nick Nie was from a gangster background, he would never have been so comfortable in his youth.

Nick Nie went on to say, "On New Year's Eve this year, he and other workers went to collect accounts, and were beaten to death by thugs hired by the developer." Nick Nie's tone became increasingly calm, and it was obvious that he wanted to cover up his sadness.

Nick Nie still couldn't help sobbing. He picked up a tissue, turned his head to the side, pretended to wipe his mouth, and wiped his eyes. "He didn't die on the spot. When he was dying, his sister and I were beside him. We cried very hard. He was He touched my head and told me that I must study hard so that I can make a lot of money in the future. If I make a lot of money, I can live in a mansion and take care of his sister. He will only rest in peace if we live a good life. I promise him everything."

Kai Wei was moved when he heard this, but he still didn't believe in one sentence, that is, study hard. How could you possibly come out and fool around if you study hard?

But Nick Nie hadn't finished yet, "Later, his sister and I received social subsidies, and finally his sister managed to finish her studies, and I, for various reasons, entered the society early, gradually made a difference, and made money, but after all, the money was made through hanging out, not by studying. Yes, this goes against my benefactor’s expectations, so when I came out to hang out, I did not give up my studies. I can show you my diploma now. No matter how I got up, in short, I fulfilled his wish and I also got rid of all the enemies who caused my benefactor’s death.”

Damn Kai Wei was stunned, thinking about himself, a student who was expelled, compared to Nick Nie back then, he was far worse than Nick Nie.

"This villa is called Xiaofeng Villa, which should be the name of your benefactor."

"Yes, his name is Nie Xiaofeng. My last name is that of him. His sister's name is Nie Xiaogao."

After Nick Nie finished speaking, he stood up and turned his back, raising his hands from time to time to do something to his face.

Looking at the powerful figure in front of me, it is hard to imagine that he had such a touching past. Kai Wei thought of the lyrics: Everyone has a sadness that they want to hide, but they want to cover it up.

Nick Nie paused and then said, "Brother, as someone who has been there, I remind you that no one can reach the sky in one fell swoop. Even if a pie falls from the sky, only those who raise their heads and open their mouths in advance can catch it. Any success is inseparable from courage and hard work. When you are about to be knocked down, think about your loved ones who need you and fight for it."

Kai Wei was excited when he heard this. He thought about his parents, Chloe Chang, Ethan Yi, and anyone who needed him. He had every reason to muster up his courage and puff up his chest. He stood up slowly, slammed the table and said, "Fight."

"husband"

A clear female voice came from behind, and Kai Wei and Nick Nie turned around at the same time.

This girl is tall and slender, and her figure is somewhat similar to Chloe Chang's. Her appearance is also stunning, especially her big eyes, which flicker like a fan when she blinks, making people's hearts flutter. With just one look, Kai Wei was already intoxicated.

Nick Nie smiled and walked forward, "Go out and buy something good."

"They were too expensive. I didn't buy any, so I picked up a few pairs of socks from a street stall."

Watching the woman go upstairs, Nick Nie said to Kai Wei, "My wife, Nie Xiaogao."

Kai Wei had already guessed, "This is really a perfect ending."
