The Only Person With Right

The conversation with the old woman just now made Tang Ning wonder. "Are you saying that her last wish was for me to inherit a multinational company?"

Du Sheng held back his grief, and his face was still covered in tears. "Yes, ever since grandma was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer 8 months ago, she has been sending people to look for you in China. She wants to see you in her lifetime and personally hand over the company to you!"

"In that case, who is she..."

Before Tang Ning could finish her question, Du Sheng's phone rang. As Du Sheng picked up the call, he politely gestured to Tang Ning.

Tang Ning could faintly hear voices coming from the other end of the phone. "President Du, we've been discovered! Someone has followed us here!"

Du Sheng looked a little flustered, but even so, he still spoke to Tang Ning in a gentle voice, "Miss Tang, I'm afraid I don't have time to explain everything to you. Please sign the contract immediately!"

Tang Ning hesitated. She did not have enough time to think. However, when she thought back to what the old woman had said, only by inheriting a multinational company would she have a chance to fight against her parents and even save her life.

In the end, Tang Ning signed the contract.

Du Sheng immediately took the contract away from her and said, "Grandma said before that after she passed away, her ashes will be scattered at sea. Can you do her a favor?"

"But... I'm not 1 of her family members. Do I have the right to do so?"

Du Sheng answered her, "You're the only one who have the right to do so."

Tang Ning had only spent a few minutes with the old woman, but she felt a sense of familiarity, "Ok then."

"I got to go!"

"Wait, I just signed my name on the contract. I don't even know anything about the company..."

Tang Ning's voice was still gentle, but there was a sense of urgency in her eyes. "Miss Tang, I'll come find you in the future and give you an explanation."

"Do you have my number?"

As Du Sheng opened the door, he turned around and said, "Don't worry, I'll find you. Remember, you must fulfill grandmother's last wish!"

In the blink of an eye, Du Sheng disappeared. Tang Ning and the recently deceased old woman were in the same room. The night breeze blew past the windowsill, causing the curtains to sway slightly.

Although she did not dislike the old woman, being in a unfamiliar environment with a dead person still sent chills down Tang Ning's spine.

In order to calm herself down, Tang Ning checked her phone and searched for the number of the funeral home.

At that moment, sound of footsteps could be heard coming from downstairs. Bai Tao had already arrived with his men. He searched every room in the villa, but could not find Tang Ning.

Tang Ning heard the footsteps and was about to hide when Bai Tao kicked open the door. He then saw Tang Ning and an old woman in the room.

Bai Tao almost shouted 'Miss Tang', but he immediately pretended he did not know her. In reality, although Tang Ning did not know him, he had already been following her for a few days under Qin Mu's command.

"Who are you?"

Bai Tao did not know how to explain himself. Qin Mu did not allow him to reveal any information about his identity to Tang Ning. Hence, he had no choice but to lie to her.

"I'm a police officer. Someone just reported that a young lady at the bar was kidnapped, so I chased her all the way here. Are you hurt?"

"No, I'm not. I'm fine"

"Did you see the person who kidnapped you?"

"No." Tang Ning shook her head. "But, I know this old woman. She's a relative of mine, so you don't have to worry about my safety. I'm familiar with this place too. I want to be alone in my room for a while. You guys can leave."

Bai Tao thought for a moment. Since Tang Ning said so, in order to prevent his identity from being exposed, he had no choice but to say, "Very well. We still need to track down the person that kidnapped you."

Although Bai Tao said so, as soon as he left the room, he immediately said to the people beside him, "You guys stay outside the villa and don't let anything happen to Miss Tang! I'm going to investigate where the kidnappers went."

Tang Ning did not reveal the fact that the old woman had passed away. She knew that if she revealed it, they would investigate the old woman. Since she had already promised Du Sheng that she would scatter her ashes at sea, she had no choice but to hide it from them.
