Chapter 485 Waiting for Someone
“What do you mean?” Gao Bin’s expression darkened.
He didn’t have a good impression of Jiang Ning in the first place, and now he still dared to come
here to say strange things.
Once Gao Shenghai’s funeral was over, he was going to wipe out the Su family and the Zuo family.
The ones who were doomed were the Su family and Zuo family!

“Gao Bin!” Gao Yali walked over. “Don’t be rude.”
“Sis,” Gao Bin clenched his teeth. “This fellow here is spouting nonsense! He said…”
“Go over there, I’ll take care of Mr Jiang.”
Gao Bin took a deep breath to suppress the anger within him and didn’t say anymore.
Gao Yali’s emotions were conflicted as she looked at Jiang Ning.
Gao Shenghai told her not to hate the person behind all of this. Jiang Ning was probably the person
behind it, but it didn’t seem possible at the same time.
How could one Jiang Ning possibly shake up the illegal circle of Shenghai?
There were many powerful families in the north backing this place.
She had found out that the Zuo family was backed by the Song family in the north, while the Su
family was backed by the Tie family in the north. Both of these families were considered middle tier
families, and they had tremendous influence.
They were no less than her main family line in the north.
When Gao Yali learnt that the main family in the north were unable to send help even though they
were in trouble, she knew that things had become very complicated.
Was this something that Jiang Ning, the king of the forbidden territory Donghai, could possibly
shake up?
That wasn’t possible.
That was definitely impossible.
“Mr Jiang, why did you come to Shenghai?” Gao Yali poured a cup of tea for Jiang Ning and calmly
asked another question, “Did Mr Jiang already know that something like this would suddenly
happen to my family?”
She asked very directly.
“Yes, I already knew.”
Jiang Ning’s reply was even more direct.
Gao Yali’s eyes narrowed.
“You also saw my father’s death coming?”
“Yes, I did.”
Gao Yali shuddered and she nearly spilled the tea out of the teapot.
She looked straight at Jiang Ning and was silent for a moment before asking, “Then why didn’t you
stop it from happening?”
Gao Yali immediately regretted asking.
This question was a dumb question.
Jiang Ning wasn’t related to her family at all, and defending them would offend both the Su family
and the Zuo family, as well as the powerful families of the north backing them. Who would be willing
to do such a thing?
If he angered those two big shots in the north, this so called forbidden territory of Donghai would
disappear overnight!
“Because he had to die,” Jiang Ning replied. “I believe your father was even more aware of this than
me.”
Gao Yali’s gaze wasn’t steady anymore.
Jiang Ning’s words were so similar to what Gao Shenghai had told her before he died.
Gao Shenghai was very calm when he was telling Gao Yali what to do after he died. It was as if he
had been waiting for this day for a very long time, and dying was actually a release for him.
Was Jiang Ning the person he said he was waiting for?
What was going on?
“There are many things where you will start to despair after seeing too much of it. And after you feel
despair, you would want things to change.”
Gao Yali didn’t quite understand what Jiang Ning said. He went on, “But some people don’t have the
ability to change things, or some don’t have the courage to change. Some don’t even dare to try
changing things. Your father had the courage but no ability.”
“Are you trying to say that my father had to use his own death to change whatever you’re talking
about?”
Gao Yali had a strange smile on her face.
But yet she felt that she had got the answer correct.
She didn’t know what Jiang Ning was talking about, but yet she also suddenly felt like she
understood everything.
She felt like she had fallen into a gigantic whirlpool.
There were many pairs of eyes staring at her. If she was just a little careless, that would mean the
end of her.
Her father probably felt like that as the head of the family.
“Your father’s sacrifice was worth it.”
Gao Yali suddenly felt that she couldn’t read Jiang Ning at all.
He was like a thick fog and nobody could see through it clearly. It was impossible to see who he
really was.
“Then you’ve come to the Gao house tonight…”
“Of course it’s because I’m waiting for someone.” “Waiting for who?’
“They’re almost here.”
