Chapter 2696: Chapter 2696: You’ve always been good

Ding Ning muttered a few words in a muffled voice. She held her chin and looked outside. Then, she waved her hand. “This area is under my protection.”

Yu Jiangqing laughed softly. “Mm, your territory.”

“I originally thought that they would avoid me and brother Hu when they saw us. When we were young, some parents would point at us when they walked past us with their children. I’ll remember that look in their eyes for the rest of my life,”Ding Ning said, she turned to look at Yu Jiangqing. “I have been collecting protection fees from brother Hu since I was seven years old. However, we do things for real when we collect protection fees. Those children pay the protection fees on their own accord.”

Yu Jiangqing could tell that they had their own principles when it came to stealing.

“Juan Zi told me that when she was young, she envied me the most. You have no idea how much I envied her. I envied her having parents. I envied her being able to go to school. I envied her dressing beautifully every day. I envied her –“Ding Ning said, suddenly, she laughed. “But today, she told me that she envied me the most.”

This was probably the best medicine to open the knot in Ding Ning’s heart. Because Juan Zi was her dream when she was young. But now, this dream was telling her that she was also someone else’s dream, it was the dream of the person she wanted to become.

“You have always been very good.”Yu Jiangqing reached out and touched her head, “Since you know that you’ve done it with a clear conscience, why do you care about the opinions of those who don’t know you at all? Ding Ning, you live for yourself, not for the opinions of others.”

Ding Ning raised her head and looked at Yu Jiangqing. He was still as cold as seven years ago. It was as if time had forgotten this man.

“Have you ever doubted yourself?”Ding Ning suddenly asked.

Yu Jiangqing paused for a moment, then retracted his hand and started the car. “I’ll take you somewhere.”

Ding Ning nodded. She actually wanted to ask her son, but she thought that he should have given it to Mo Fei, so she didn’t continue asking.

It was past nine o’clock in the evening in Lin City. It could really be described as sparsely populated. At least there weren’t many cars on the road.

“You should know that I spent eleven years abroad,”Yu Jiangqing said as he looked at Ding Ning, who was sitting in the passenger seat, “I never doubted myself, but those eleven years were undeniably the darkest eleven years of my life. My comrades died, and big gu endured the humiliation in B city. After being tortured by them for two years, I pretended to defect to the enemy. I killed good people and did bad things. and the bad things I did were really bad things. Ding Ning, compared to my past, yours is just child’s play.”

When Yu Jiangqing said this, his eyes deepened and his hands that were holding the steering wheel tightened.

Ding Ning:”…”

“You have probably only heard of Cheng Jie. He is sinister and cunning, and he has done many evil deeds. Gu Da and I had planned for eleven years before we were able to take him down. To put it bluntly, we are doing this for our own personal revenge. Being patriotic is just a side effect,”Yu Jiangqing said calmly, the car had already driven to the outskirts.

Ding Ning still felt that it was unbelievable. She had heard about the incident before. When Yu Jiangqing brought her to B city, the incident had already ended. Ye Yuwei had also ‘died’because of that incident.

When the car arrived at the cemetery in the outskirts, Ding Ning did not get out of the car. Instead, she subconsciously frowned.

She really did not want to come to this place.
