I snagged a bargain in a melodramatic novel and became incredibly wealthy!

In the neon-lit bar at night, colorful lights shone in the center, and people mingled and whispered among themselves, enjoying a luxurious atmosphere.

At the entrance of the bar, the lights were dim and flickering. There stood a tall man with a charmingly wicked face and a cold, ambiguous smile on his lips. He stepped into the bar.

A cold gaze fell on the two people sitting on the bar, whispering sweet nothings to each other.

The two were none other than Tang Ning and the puppy, who were already quite drunk with their eyes glazed over and their cheeks flushed.

Tang Ning lifted the puppy's fair chin, pressed her red lips to his lower lip, and breathed warmly on his skin. She glanced sideways at the man walking not far away, her eyebrows full of spring and a hint of smugness.

Xiao Baihua's idea was quite good. It was the first time she had seen Shen He so out of sorts. After being together for so many years, she could tell he was in a bad mood just from his hurried footsteps.

The puppy was also nice; the bright sunshine, like the rising sun, radiant and made her feel that she could live in the sunlight, instead of being like a dark rat, hiding in the damp, muddy sewers, sneaking around and stealing.

For a moment, the puppy froze. Was this woman really going to kiss him?

It's okay, it's okay, she's a woman.

It's okay to be kissed by a beautiful woman.

The puppy took a deep breath, bracing himself, his eyes glazed over, then he exuded a dreamy, innocent charm. He lowered his voice, soft and gentle, and said, "Sister~"

Tang Ning withdrew his gaze from the corner of his eye, pressed his lips to the puppy's chin, and left a bright red lip print on his fair chin, like a beautiful red plum blossom in full bloom.

The puppy shuddered; how could this woman actually kiss him?

She's not clean anymore!

"Tangning!"

A man's voice, tinged with anger, shattered the ambiguous atmosphere between them.

This man was none other than Shen He, who had come to find Tang Ning after not seeing her for several days.

Shen He grabbed Tang Ning by the back of the neck and pulled her up, his voice sinister: "Who gave you the guts to... leave the island?"

He couldn't bring himself to say he was being cuckolded, so he changed his words.

Tang Ning felt an intense pain in the back of her neck, but she didn't struggle. She let Brother Shen hold her, smiling calmly, "You gave me the guts to leave the island."

Shen He's brows furrowed with obvious annoyance: "I didn't give you the guts to leave the island to look for... this thing!"

The puppy took the opportunity to rub the corner of his eye, which was slightly red and moist. He stepped forward and hugged Tang Ning's waist, his voice soft: "Brother, don't blame sister~ I'm just her brother."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ning's gaze involuntarily fell on the puppy's face. She only intended to use him, and after she was done using him, Shen He would naturally kill him.

But she never expected that this puppy would actually help her out of that predicament.

Shen He scrutinized him closely, his eyes filled with examination and suspicion. How come he didn't remember A Ning having a younger brother?

Moreover, the way this person placed their hands made him really uncomfortable.

When the puppy saw where his eyes were looking, he let go of her hand, raised his hands, and smiled innocently: "I'm sorry, brother, I've been getting along with my sister like this since we were little, I'm used to it~ You don't mind, do you?"

Shen He felt a strange sensation; those words made him uncomfortable.

But he didn't want to keep such a person around; he didn't like Aning being so close to anyone other than him.

The puppy looked at Shen He, who remained unmoved, and gazed innocently at Tang Ning with clear eyes, its voice slightly drawn out: "Sister~ I won't disturb you and brother."

"But... I have nowhere to go now."

Tang Ning felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She took his hand, looked at Shen He with her charming eyes, and gently parted her red lips to explain to him, "Shen He, he is my younger brother, my own brother."

She didn't know why she protected him; she thought she just didn't want an innocent person who liked her to die.

Shen He still didn't want to let him go, but Tang Ning's next words softened his heart.

"Besides you, my brother is the only other person I have in this world. He is my only family."

"You're always so busy, you never have time for me. I finally found my younger brother..."

"Please let him go..."

Tang Ning knew what Shen He was going to do; she knew it from the moment he stepped in here with anger.

Everyone else was just a victim of their wrath; she only wanted to keep this one innocent person who liked her.

Xu Qingming's serious voice came through Wei Yan's earphone: "Shen He's men are gradually surrounding the bar. You two immediately make a commotion and get the people in the bar to leave."

"Without outside help, everyone in your area has been bought off."

Be careful and cautious in everything you do.

"Bang bang bang!"

Wei Yan pulled out a gun from his waist and fired three shots into the air. The sound of the gunshots broke the glitz and glamour of the dance floor and was loud enough for the people who were immersed in it to hear.

Cai Yi, quick-witted, opened his mouth and shouted, "Murder!"

Xiao Baihua also shouted, and the crowd scattered and fled in all directions.

Cai Yi did not retreat with Wei Yan and the others. He made a request: "Shoot Shen He, no, shoot Tang Ning in the heart."

The puppy was enough to strengthen their bond. She couldn't save Shen He and then become a thorn in Tang Ning's side; otherwise, her mission would be extremely difficult.

Wei Yan knew her thoughts almost instantly, his eyes filled with disbelief: "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"I've really had enough of these two crazy people. They're just as cruel, vicious, selfish, and ruthless as the clansmen!"

Caiyi's face clearly showed anger and disgust.

"I won't die, just stay away and shoot."

"By the way, don't fire here. Wait until we're on the ship before you fire. Otherwise, if I get injured, they'll definitely abandon me."

After Cai Yi finished speaking, she started running towards Tang Ning, with Xiao Baihua following behind her.

The two, along with Shen He's bodyguards, escorted them away from the chaotic bar.

We boarded the cruise ship safely and without incident.

Cai Yi looked at the numerous bodyguards around Shen He and felt somewhat fortunate that she had chosen Tang Ning instead of Shen He; otherwise, simply getting past the bodyguards would have been a very difficult task.

Although she is in excellent physical condition now, she is no match for those bodyguards who have accumulated experience over the years; her skills are only enough to keep her from being a burden.

In a high building along the coast, Wei Yan held binoculars and watched the slowly sailing cruise ship, like a lurking leopard, quietly waiting for the target to appear in a suitable sniping position.

Tang Ning leaned against the railing, and Shen He wrapped his arms around her waist from behind. The two of them leaned against each other quietly, enjoying the salty sea breeze and watching the waves crash against the shore.

The bodyguards surrounded the two of them in a semi-circle.

Caiyi: "..."

Let's set aside the issue of bodyguards for this position.

She could only block the gunshot by jumping into the sea.

Moreover, given this position... it would be very difficult for Wei Yan to shoot Tang Ning in the heart.

Xiao Baihua came up with an idea: the executor would be a puppy.

The puppy is named Mu Bai, with one mother's surname and the other father's surname.
