"What kind of friend? We are very close friends."
Drinking the coffee which was a bit of bitter, Ding Ning teased the young girl at the front desk, who was inquiring about his rtionship with Mu Yanran like a curious baby, with a bright smile.
"Where is the toilet?"
They didn’t notice that more than half an hour had passed. Ding Ning had an urge to urinate after drinking a lot coffee, and asked Tingyu with embarrassment.
Listening to Ding Ning talking with great interest, Tingyu pointed at the door and said, "The nearest toilet is next to the security room outside the door. There is a toilet upstairs as well, but you have to wait for the elevator, which is troublesome!"
"Okay. I’m going to the toilet and wille back soon."
Ding Ning rushed out in haste, and his eager look made Tingyu giggle.
The toilet was quite exquisite. Although it was just a small bungalow, there werepartments, urinals and sinks.
"Fuck, the damn cripple dares topete with me for the captain’s position. I’ll kill him."
After pissing, Ding Ning shivered withfort. When he was lifting his pants, he suddenly heard some voices from the security room next door. He could tell that the familiar hoarse voice belonged to Wang Cheng.
Damn cripple? Why didn’t he see anyme security guard? Was the guy not here a moment ago?
Ding Ning felt refreshed and listened to what they were talking about.
"Brother Cheng, the cripple is so powerful that we can’t beat him."
Another security guard said fearlessly.
"Fuck, are you still my buddies? I managed to drive the old fellow Qian away, about to get the position of captain. At this time, the damn cripple showed up and has been appreciated by General Manager Sun. He will definitely take the position of captain away from me. You have been worked with me for several months. Tell me, have I treated you badly?"
Wang Cheng said in anger, "You should think about it. If the damn cripple bes the captain, will he treat you well in future?"
"No. Brother Cheng, you have absolutely treated us so well."
"Yeah, brother Cheng, we have drunk big bowls of wine and eatenrge pieces of meat since we began to work with you. Just tell us how do you want to deal with him?"
"As long as you say it, I’ll absolutely do anything you want me to do without saying anything. Brother Cheng, just tell us what do you want to do?"
...
Agitated by Wang Cheng, a group of security guards patted their chests and expressed their loyalty.
"Shush, keep your voice down. Listen to me, put this pack of drug into the damn cripple’s cup like what we did to Qianst time. After drinking it, he would definitely make passes at the female employees like a male dog in heat. At that time, how will thepany deal with him? Hehe..."
Wang Cheng smiled insidiously, and several security guards alsoughed and licked his shoes.
"Brother Cheng, it’s a good idea. Last time we used the hallucinogens to make Qian have a car ident on his way home. This time we’ll use the aphrodisiac. I don’t believe that we can’t drive the prudish cripple away."
"Brother Cheng, after you be the captain, don’t forget us."
"As long as we drive the damn cripple away, the position of captain must belong to brother Cheng."
"But there is a problem. The damn cripple was sent to guard the underground parking lot. If we go to the underground parking lot, will he be suspicious?"
A security guard asked worriedly.
"Idiot. Can’t you just think of a way to draw him away? Others put the drug in his cup."
Wang Juan was exasperated disappointed and cursed them.
"I have a solution. Isn’t this guy able to repair the monitoring equipment? I am going to break one of the surveince camera and ask him to repair it. You take the opportunity to put the drug in his cup."
A security guard said voluntarily.
"Okay, just do it. Qiangzi, you are in charge of breaking the surveince camera. Be careful not to be captured. Ma Liu, you sneak into the underground parking lot to put the drug in his cup, call the guys who are close to the cripple and tell them that I’m going to take them to patrol. Others should wait with me here, pretending to be patrolling."
Wang Cheng pped his hands and said excitedly.
"Rest assured, brother Cheng. We know about where the monitor can capture better than anyone else, and we won’t be captured."
The security guard named Qiangzi said with confidence.
"Then go ahead. After you finish it, I’ll reward you by inviting you to have ate snack and then arranging one girl for each of you in Dafuhao."
Wang Chengughed in high spirits with lofty sentiments.
"Thank you, brother Cheng."
"Long live brother Cheng!"
"Haha, we got wine and girls in the evening. Brother Cheng, you are our boss."
...
A group of security guards got excited and started to act.
Ding Ning’s face darkened. He took out his mobile phone quietly and took the lead to sneak into the surveince room.
Ding Ning had always disliked Wang Cheng, but didn’t expect that he was so malicious and mean. Qian, the former captain of the the security team, actually left thepany because of being drugged by him and having a car ident.
Now Wang Cheng intended to frame up anotherpetitor by making him making passes at female colleagues under the influence of drug. Not only the unfortunate female colleague would never be able to hold up her head again, but also theme security guard would lose his job and even might be sued. How could Ding Ning turn a blind eye to it?
However, hearing was vague, seeing was believing. There must be evidence for doing anything. He must capture the process of their carrying out the conspiracy, so that even Wang Cheng’s deputy president sister would be unable to keep his job.
Although it was still in the daytime, ordinary security guards could barely perceive Ding Ning’s speedy movements. While the three security guards in the surveince room did not pay attention, he sneaked into the monitoring room in advance, hid under the desk and turned on his mobile phone.
Wang Cheng was the vice captain. Although the three security guards did not want to associate with him, they were very obedient to go to the security room outside the building after Qiangzi passed the order.
With a smirk on his face, Qiangzi expertly broke a wire of the monitor and rushed to the underground parking lot in a hurry, but he did not know that his every move was captured by Ding Ning.
"Xiaoniu, there is a camera in the surveince room broken. Can you repair it?"
In the guard stand of the underground parking lot, Ding Ning finally saw the damn cripple mentioned by Wang Cheng.
What surprised him was that the young security guard with spiky hair and a resolute face was tall and straight with the unique stern aura of a soldier, which left a good impression on him at first sight.
Xiaoniu did not suspect him, quickly took out the backpack with tools and said, "Qiangzi, help me guard the parking lot. I wille back soon."
"It’s unnecessary. It’s not the time for people getting off work yet, and there won’t be carsing in and out. We won’t miss anything in a while. Besides, aren’t there buddies patrolling outside? If there are carsing in and out, they wille to help."
Qiangzi obviously had anti-reconnaissance awareness. He had seen Xiaoniu’s skills. He didn’t want to be suspected by Xiaoniu after the incident, so he insisted on going to the monitoring room with Xiaoniu.
"Well, I will try to be faster."
Xiaoniu did not suspect him, and rapidly walked to the monitoring room after a hesitation.
The underground parking lot became quiet again. Ma Liu stealthily avoided the monitor to sneak in, put on the gloves to remove the lid of Xiaoniu’s teacup, and put a pack of powder in it. After that, he deftly shook the teacup to make the powder dissolve faster.
He smirked and left noiselessly, but did not discover that Ding Ning who was lying prone on the ceiling above his head like a gecko had captured this scene with his mobile phone.
Xiaoniu was obviously a very responsible security guard. He finished fixing the broken wire and hurried back in less than five minutes.
"Don’t drink it. Someone has put some drug in your teacup."
Seeing Xiaoniu pick up the tea cup and about to drink aftering back, Ding Ning quickly showed up and reminded him.
"Who are you?"
Xiaoniu watched Ding Ning vigntly and put the teacup down with his hand habitually touching the rubber stick at his waist.
"I came to help you. You have been framed by that Wang Cheng."
Ding Ning told him the conversation of Wang Cheng and his fellows which he had inadvertently overheard, while taking out his mobile phone to show him the video.
"Wang Cheng, you bastard, damn bastard. The old squad leader is only 32 years old this year, but can only lie in the hospital now because of him. With his skill, how could he have a car ident? It turns out that he was framed by Wang Cheng. I am going to kill this motherfucker."
Xiaoniu’s eyes turned red instantly. What made him angry was not that he was framed but the former security captain Qian Yongjin had a car ident due to Wang Cheng’s conspiracy and was likely to be a vegetative patient.
Told by Xiaoniu who had tears in his eyes, Ding Ning knew that Xiaoniu’s full name was Niu Xiaoniu, and he and Qian Yongjin, the former security captain, had served in the army in the northeast and wererades-in-arms.
Qian Yongjin was the squad leader when Niu Xiaoniu was just enlisted. Because they were both from Ninghai, Qian Yongjin took extra care of Niu Xiaoniu.
They had a very close rtionship, so Niu Xiaoniu considered Qian Yongjin his brother. Later, Niu Xiaoniu was transferred from the original army and became a special soldier of the Northeast Tiger Special Operations Force.
A month ago, Niu Xiaoniu’s right leg was wounded when he was carrying out a task, and he became disabled. He could only retired early and returned to Ninghai.
Aftering back, he realized that his parents had passed away in a car ident and only left him a house.
Niu Xiaoniu who found his parents both dead and became disabled was in a bad mood, so he invited his old squad leader to have a drink.
Qian Yongjin had got married. His wife had no job, and his child was just born, so he supported his family by working as a security guard.
Niu Xiaoniu intended to go to Qian Yongjin’s home the next night to see his newly born nephew. Unexpectedly he got the news of Qian Yongjin having a car ident.
Qian Yongjin’s family was very poor, so they even couldn’t afford to let him stay in the hospital. Thus, Niu Xiaoniu gave his disability pension and resettlement money to Qian Yongjin’s family.
Although Qian Yongjin was rescued, he was still unconscious. Seeing the old squad leader fall into such a situation, Niu Xiaoniu really couldn’t bear it. He sold his house and used the money to pay the medical fee for the old squad. However, it could only solve the urgent need at the moment, after all, as long as Qian Yongjin had not woken up, the medical fee would be a bottomless pit.
After serving in the army for so many years, Niu Xiaoniu had long been disconnected from the society. He could not do anything except for fighting If he was not disabled, he could still work as a bodyguard for a rich man and support Qian Yongjin’s family.
However, despite of his umon skills, those rich people wouldn’t even give him a chance in consideration of his disability. Therefore, in desperation, he came to Tianfupany to apply for the position of security guard. Unexpectedly he identally knew that Qian Yongjin was actually framed by Wang Cheng, which made him indignant.
Ding Ning was deeply moved. He had never been a soldier, and could not understand the friendship betweenrades-in-arms.
In Diannan, Wang Guoliang and hisrades-in-arms had already shocked his heart, but they seemed to be inferior to Niu Xiaoniu in front of him.
Perhaps many people considered that Niu Xiaoniu was so silly for dissipating his fortune for hisrade-in-arms and taking care of hisrade-in-arms’ family.
Nevertheless, Ding Ning considered him a real man. What this real man did was so moving and admirable.
"Xiaoniu, although I have never been a soldier and can’t understand the friendship betweenrades-in-arms, I admire you. Since I ran into this thing, I will definitely help you to the end. From now on, we are friends. My name is Ding Ning."
Ding Ning stretched out his hand to hold Xiaoniu’s palm which was covered with calluses. He decided to do something for Qian Yongjin’s family and Xiaoniu, regardless of any return, just for his the innocent heart of being loyal to hisrade-in-arms.
