The Ning Family's old mansion.
Ning Zhenyue sat there, having listened to Ning Mengyao's retelling.
With his eyebrows tightly furrowed, he had not expected that his granddaughter could be the target of an assassination attempt.
And by a notoriously infamous group of assassins, no less.
This made him hesitate for a moment, but he eventually held back.
After all, if that matter were to be revealed,
it could likely cause a huge uproar.
Before being certain whether Lin Fan could handle it,
he decided it was better to keep this matter to himself.
"Grandpa, Lin Fan said he has a very important task tonight and needs your cooperation. You just need to take this,"
Ning Mengyao did not notice anything amiss with her grandfather.
Instead, she took out a small box.
In the box lay a black pill the size of a fingernail.
"I'm to cooperate with him?"
Ning Zhenyue questioned as he picked up the pill.
He sniffed it under his nose, but it didn't smell off.
