Chapter 291: Raw Material Exploitation Right

Leng Shaoting didn’t expect that Gu Ning would push him away all of a sudden, so he failed to catch her.

Gu Ning’s beautiful, sexy body appeared in his sight, which turned him on again, but right at this moment, Leng Shaoting’s phone rang and interrupted him. He still had to fulfill his task and couldn’t ignore it.

The call was from Xu Jinchen. He told Leng Shaoting that they had already gotten the drug dealers’ address. It was time for them to take action, thus Leng Shaoting had to be apart from Gu Ning temporarily.

Although Gu Ning knew that Leng Shaoting was an outstanding military officer, she still reminded him to be careful. Gu Ning really wanted to help him if it wasn’t for his team’s special identity.

This night, Gu Ning slept alone and somehow felt as if she was not used to it. Precisely because she was free now, she suddenly thought of their WeChat group. There were thousands of messages in the chat history, and many of them mentioned her.

Gu Ning called Gu Man on alternate days, but she totally forgot their Wechat group, and now felt a little guilty.

The moment that Gu Ning appeared, an animated discussion started.

Gu Ning: How are you doing recently?

Hao Ran: Wow! Boss, we thought you were lost! We even wanted to call the police!

Mu Ke: Exactly! Where have you been?

Chu Peihan: I think boss is busy dating.

Qin Zixun: I agree.

An Yi, Zhang Tianping and Yu Mixi were absent, so Gu Ning chatted with Chu Peihan and the others for a while longer before she went to bed.

The next day around 8:30 am, Gu Ning left for the street of stone gambling. She told Zheng Peng that she had already gotten the raw material exploitation right document.

Zheng Peng was shocked by his boss’s efficiency and network in the government.

Gu Ning didn’t explain further. She intentionally impressed Zheng Peng so that he would be loyal to her and be willing to follow her lead. Because although Gu Ning trusted Zheng Peng, it was necessary to make him scared of her to some extent. Gu Ning understood that it would impress him more if she told him that she had unseated the Wang Family, but she had no intention to tell him that.

Afterwards, they planned to hold a press conference to spread the news abroad.

The news of the Wang Family and the Colorful Jade Provider was extremely popular recently so many reporters came to Zheng Peng’s store once he called them.

Zheng Peng, of course, would host the press conference.

When the Colorful Jade Provider took over and absorbed the Wang Family’s raw material supplier, people were all shocked. The Wang Family was unseated and its properties naturally would be dealt with. Its raw material exploitation right especially aroused the interest of countless businessmen. However, before the others could react, the boss of Colorful Jade Provider had already gotten it, which astonished all of them. In other words, the boss of Colorful Jade Provider had to be an important figure with a strong network. Therefore, many people were in awe of its boss.

Colorful Jade Provider had been established for just a few days, but it was already able to make long-term deals with many famous jewelry businessmen. And now it even got the Wang Family’s raw material exploitation right before anyone else. Its boss must be a person of great power.

In fact, it wasn’t difficult for those who had the ability, to find out who the boss of Colorful Jade Provider was, but in ordinary people’s eyes, its boss was mysterious.

Many who went to investigate the boss of Colorful Jade Provider were just curious. However, when they found out that its boss was just an 18-year-old girl, they were all stunned. Although they didn’t believe that a teenage girl was able to run the company alone, they couldn’t ignore her ability and the powerful support behind her. Thus, no one dared to spread the news that the boss of Colorful Jade Provider was Gu Ning in case they annoyed her.

However, no one was more shocked than Zhang Decheng, because he had met Gu Ning before, and he believed that Gu Ning had the ability to run the company.

Zhang Decheng suddenly thought of a piece of news that he had read on the Internet before the Wang Family’s scandal was exposed. It was said that the Wang Family had sent people to break into Colorful Jade Provider’s warehouse at night. An idea dawned on Zhang Decheng at this time. He sensed that the Wang Family had a grudge against Gu Ning and that its decline had something to do with Gu Ning too.

Zhang Decheng was amazed by his own guess. If Gu Ning was really involved in the Wang Family’s mess, she had to be much more powerful than he could ever know. No matter what, Zhang Decheng would always believe that Gu Ning was an able young girl, and wanted to maintain a good relationship with her. In that case, even though he now knew that Gu Ning was the boss of both Colorful Jade Provider and Colorful Raw Material Provider, he didn’t point it out.

In the following days, Gu Ning told Zheng Peng to arrange for the workers who had worked for the Wang Family’s company to exploit raw materials as soon as possible.

Gu Ning had no intention to take the rest of the raw materials in the Wang Family’s warehouse, because she had already gotten all the raw materials with high quality jade inside earlier.

Gu Ning also didn’t fire the workers who had worked for the Wang Family, because they were merely employees hired by the Wang Family. None of them thought that it was a bad thing that their boss changed. The Wang Family’s illegal behavior annoyed everyone in City Teng and nobody had sympathy for them. Instead, the workers felt lucky to stay, because they could keep their jobs. Thus they thanked and respected Zheng Peng and his boss.

Later, Gu Ning and Zheng Peng went to the jade mountains and mines together with a chauffeur.

Chapter 292: The Tang Family in City B

Although Zheng Peng could drive himself, he was now the general manager of both Colorful Jade Provider and Colorful Raw Material Provider, so it was necessary that he had a personal driver.

The jade mountains and mines were 20 kilometers away from City Teng. On their way, Gu Ning noticed that there were several mountains which had already been exploited. The distance of Gu Ning’s Jade Eyes was limited, so she wasn’t able to see whether there was jade in the surrounding mountains. She had to wait until they arrived.

They drove on mountain roads, so it took them around half an hour to get to their destination.

From afar, Gu Ning heard a knocking noise. When they drew near, a large tin house appeared in their sight. It was where the workers stayed. Outside of the tin house, two trucks which were used to deliver raw materials were stopped.

Wang Jinmao was 34-years-old. He was the supervisor and was in charge of the exploitation of raw materials. And although his family name was Wang, he had no relationship with the Wang Family.

Wang Jinmao had been informed before Zheng Peng came here, so he was already waiting at the entrance. Seeing the car driving over, Wang Jinmao understood that Zheng Peng was coming.

The car stopped at the site, the driver got out first and opened the door for Zheng Peng while Gu Ning climbed out on her own. She came here as Zheng Peng’s assistant, so she couldn’t behave like a boss.

“Nice to meet you, Manager Zheng!” Wang Jinmao greeted him with great respect.

“Nice to meet you too, Supervisor Wang,” Zheng Peng replied.

“Please follow me this way, Manager Zheng.” Wang Jinmao immediately guided the way ahead of Zheng Peng’s group. When they walked past the tin house, Wang Jinmao took out several helmets, handing it to them. They put the helmet on before walking into the site.

The jade mountain was just a couple of minutes of walking, away from the tin house.

Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes when she finally stood before the jade mountain. She saw many raw materials which contained jade on the jade mountain, but didn’t take them. She was satisfied that the jade mountain before her eyes was highly valuable.

Gu Ning took a look at the nearby mountains, and failed to find another jade mountain among them.

Zheng Peng and Gu Ning had a tour around the site before they went back.

On their way back, Gu Ning received K’s message. He had already sent an email about the Tang Family to her email box.

Gu Ning only told him to investigate the Tang Family’s second son, but unexpectedly, he investigated every member of the Tang Family.

The Tang Family was the No. 1 family in City B for a reason. It was highly influential whether in politics, business or military.

The head of the Tang Family was Tang Haifeng who was precisely Master Tang that Gu Ning had already met.

There were two sons and one daughter in the Tang Family. The eldest daughter was called Tang Yunrong, a 49-year-old senior colonel, who was the deputy head of the Air Administration and Culture Corps. Her husband, Cao Ruihua, was the director of the political department of the military region and also a senior colonel. The Cao Family was an influential military family in City B too.

They had a son and a daughter. Their son was named Cao Wenjun, and was a 25-year-old captain of the Criminal Police Organization. Their daughter was Cao Wenxin and was 23-years-old. She had just graduated from a university.

Tang Yunhang, the eldest son of Tang Haifeng, was 46-years-old and secretary of the provincial party committee. Tang Yunhang’s wife was the director of the Tourist Administration. They had two sons who were twins and both were 22-years-old. The older one was called Tang Jiakai, and the younger one was called Tang Jiayang. One was a junior studying in City B University, while the other studied abroad.

Tang Haifeng’s second son was Tang Yunfan. He was only 42-years-old, but was the richest man in City B. He was now the chairman of Tanghuang Group and didn’t have a wife, or children.

Tang Yunfan had indeed disappeared once 19 years ago, which wasn’t a secret among the celebrities in City B.

The Tang Family wasn’t the No. 1 family in City B 19 years ago, but was still a super-rich family. Tang Yunfan was the most talented one in business among the Tang Family, so Tang Haifeng brought Tang Yunfan up to be his successor. However, Tang Haifeng’s younger brother, Tang Haiming, had the ambition to inherit the Tang Family’s properties, so he had schemed against Tang Yunfan.

No one really knew the details of what had happened during that year, because it was an old story and the technology hadn’t been advanced that time. Even Tang Yunfan himself forgot the details. It was said that someone had discovered Tang Yunfan at a river.

Since then, Tang Yunfan’s personality had totally changed. He was occupied by his work all the time, and never got married, or had a child. Within a dozen years, the Tang Family developed to be the No. 1 family in City B with a hundred billion yuan in assets under Tang Yunfan’s leadership.

He has disappeared for a year 19 years ago and was found at a river?

Thinking of that, Gu Ning was more certain than ever that Tang Yunfan could be her biological father.

There was a family photo attached to the email too. When Gu Ning’s sight fell on Tang Yunfan, she was sure that Tang Yunfan without a doubt had to be her biological father.

Although Tang Yunfan looked different in his early forties than when he had been young, it was easy to notice that his and Gu Ning’s features were alike.

Gu Ning’s family name was Tang in her previous incarnation, and her biological father also had the same family name. Maybe she was destined to be a member of the Tang Family.

Although Gu Ning was sure that Tang Yunfan was her biological father, she wasn’t in a hurry to meet him because she wanted to know how Gu Man would react.

Tang Yunfan lost his memory of Gu Man after all.

Gu Ning believed that Tang Yunfan never got married because of Gu Man, but she still needed to take it seriously.

As long as Tang Yunfan met Gu Man again, he could probably get his memory back. In addition, if he lost his memory because his brain had been damaged, Gu Ning’s power could also be of great help. Most importantly, if Tang Yunfan was just a common man, Gu Man would be eager to meet him, but Tang Yunfan was now the heir of a super-rich family, Gu Ning was worried that Gu Man would be self-abased before him.

Although Gu Ning didn’t think that it was a problem at all as long as they still loved each other, she wasn’t Gu Man and couldn’t force her to think so. No matter what, Gu Ning made up her mind to support Gu Man and she would never allow anyone to despise Gu Man.

Gu Ning then went back to the street of stone gambling with Zheng Peng before she left, alone.

Chapter 293: Stupid Wang Xinyan

However, just as Gu Ning walked to the entrance of the street, a person dashed at her with a knife in their hand shouting, “Bitch! I’ll kill you!”

People around were all shocked by the scene, but Gu Ning stayed calm. Wang Xinyan was really stupid!

Gu Ning didn’t escape. Instead, she waited for Wang Xinyan to approach near. Just when Wang Xinyan was about to stab her, Gu Ning grabbed her waist like lightning and twisted it. Wang Xinyan immediately screamed in pain. The knife was also loosened from her hand, falling down onto the floor.

Everyone was amazed by Gu Ning’s sudden movement.

Gu Ning then threw Wang Xinyan away heavily without hesitation.

In the old days, Wang Xinyan would be crying already, but she didn’t do it now. Instead, she glared at Gu Ning and questioned, “Bitch, was it you? Did you expose all of our Wang Family’s dirty secrets?”

People were all astonished, looking to Gu Ning. Gu Ning was just a teenage girl in their eyes. How could she be able to unseat the Wang Family?

Gu Ning didn’t care about the onlookers, but stared at Wang Xinyan coldly. “Do you have any proof?”

In fact, she understood Wang Xinyan’s feelings, because she had caused the Wang Family’s tragedy and Wang Xinyan lost her powerful family’s support forever, but it didn’t mean that Gu Ning would tolerate her stupid attack. Wang Xinyan deserved it after all.

“I heard it from my grandpa. It was you! You revenged yourself on the Wang Family!” Wang Xinyan didn’t know much. She had just heard that Gu Ning might have been involved in the mess of the Wang Family, so she assumed that it had to be Gu Ning.

Hearing that, everyone took a long breath in with astonishment. Although they couldn’t believe that it was true, it was possible if Wang Xinyan heard it from Wang Hongming. However, how did she, a teenage girl, do it? Nobody knew the answer.

“Oh, why don’t you tell everyone what the Wang Family did to me to make me get revenge on you?” Gu Ning teased.

Her airy tone confused the crowd all of a sudden.

Gu Ning wasn’t afraid of others knowing that she had exposed the dirty secrets of the Wang Family, because it would only make them be in awe of her, but it wasn’t appropriate if she admitted right away.

“Because I told the policemen to arrest you,” Wang Xinyan said. That was the only thing she could think of that had annoyed Gu Ning.

“Well, it was no big deal. I wouldn’t get revenge on the Wang Family just because of that,” Gu Ning said with disdain. Actually, she admitted that she had revenged herself on the Wang Family with ambiguity in her reply.

“My grandpa said you were involved in it. It must be you!” Wang Xinyan was mad.

“It seems your grandpa thinks highly of me, but since your grandpa doesn’t want to mess with me, aren’t you afraid I’ll throw you into jail after what you’ve just done to me? You’re an adult, and you should know that it breaks the law if you tried to kill me on purpose,” Gu Ning said in a meaningful way.

“You…” Hearing that, Wang Xinyan’s face changed completely. The last thing she wanted to do was to be thrown into jail.

Right at this moment, they heard the police sirens. Someone had called the police when Wang Xinyan had tried to stab Gu Ning, and the policemen immediately came over once they heard that the killer was from the Wang Family. Everyone couldn’t wait to punish the Wang Family now.

Wang Xinyan instantly stood up from the ground in fear, trying to escape, but was stopped by the crowd.

“Get away, get out of my way!” Wang Xinyan urged anxiously.

“Don’t you dare leave after you tried to kill the girl!”

“The Wang Family is totally disgusting!”

“They all should be arrested and thrown into jail!”

…

A middle-aged woman ran to Wang Xinyan and clenched her teeth criticizing, “Wang Xinyan, you deserve it! You’ve bullied my daughter for a long time, and now it’s your turn to taste the feeling of shame!”

“Exactly!”

Wang Xinyan’s rude behavior was notorious around the street of stone gambling, so most of the residents hated her very much.

Wang Xinyan was alone and helpless now. She was so scared of the people who were full of hatred towards her.

Before long, the policemen arrived and took Wang Xinyan away without delay. Gu Ning followed them, going to the police station too, because she was the victim.

“Let me go! Or the Wang Family will punish you!” Wang Xinyan was so used to threatening people.

“Gee, the Wang Family? Do you think that the Wang Family is still able to cause us trouble?” the policeman asked with disdain.

“You…” Wang Xinyan was struck dumb now.

“Ha-ha,” Gu Ning laughed lightly. It was very funny that Wang Xinyan was so stupid.

Wang Xinyan heard Gu Ning laughing at her, and immediately turned to Gu Ning yelling, “Bitch! It’s all because of you! It was you!”

Meanwhile, she even tried to attack Gu Ning again, but was controlled by the policemen beside her. “Stay quiet!”

Although Wang Xinyan’s movement was restricted, she kept swearing.

Gu Ning gave her a cold glance and warned, “If you dare to swear at me one more time, I’ll make sure that you are quiet forever.”

Chapter 294: Confession

Wang Xinyan was terrified and shut her mouth at once. Even the policemen were scared by Gu Ning’s cold voice.

In a hearing room, a policeman was taking down Gu Ning’s account according to the rules.

“Your name, age and where are you from?” the policeman asked.

“Gu Ning, 18, and I’m from City F,” Gu Ning answered.

“Do you know the girl? What’s your relationship with her? Why does she want to kill you?” the policeman continued to ask.

“I’ve argued with Wang Xinyan twice. Once was in a restaurant where she tried to grab a private room that my boyfriend and I have reserved before her, but we just orally argued for a short time. After that, I’ve witnessed Wang Xinyan along with a group of people beating a girl on the street. I gave the innocent girl a helping hand and punched them. The next day, the Wang Family sent policemen to arrest my boyfriend and me and intended to sentence us to jail without trial. The head of the Public Security Bureau heard of it, and made a call to release us.

Afterwards, the Wang Family’s dirty secrets were exposed, and the Wang Family was unseated. My boyfriend helped me acquire the Wang Family’s raw material exploitation right, so the Wang Family claimed that I got revenge on them. Therefore, Wang Xinyan came to kill me,” Gu Ning said plainly. What she just said could all be found out easily, so it wasn’t necessary for her hide, but as for the information which couldn’t be found out, Gu Ning naturally wouldn’t say it.

Hearing that, the two policemen who were taking Gu Ning’s account down were both surprised. To their astonishment, this young girl before their eyes was exactly the one that the head of the Public Security Bureau had made a call to release, and she even got the Wang Family’s raw material exploitation right before anyone else. She couldn’t be an ordinary girl!

The two policemen immediately changed their attitude and wore a kind smile. They let Gu Ning leave at once without questioning her further.

It didn’t matter whether Gu Ning was telling the truth or not, it was undeniable that Wang Xinyan had tried to kill her. They had collected all the evidence, so Wang Xinyan was arrested directly. She was doomed to be sentenced to years in prison.

The terrible news hit the Wang Family heavily once more. They all hated Gu Ning to death, but they couldn’t do anything, because there was only Wang Hongming who was lying sick in bed along with a bunch of useless women in the Wang Family now.

Zheng Peng, Tang Haifeng, Zhang Decheng and Yan Shuya all called Gu Ning after they heard of the news. Hearing that Gu Ning was fine and safe, they all relaxed.

Around 6 pm, Wang Jinmao delivered a truck of raw materials to their warehouse. When they were moving raw materials, Gu Ning put all of the raw materials with top-level jade into the small warehouse. She planned to cut out that jade herself and make it into jewelry. And she would supply other jewelry businessmen with the rest.

She was running many kinds of business concerning jade now, and it was necessary for her to make good arrangements.

Although the boss of the Wang Family’s raw material provider had changed, the Wang Family’s clients stayed. However, some of them were worried that the Colorful Raw Material Provider would provide all the raw materials with jade inside for the Colorful Jade Provider and leave only the waste raw materials for them. However, Zheng Peng promised that they would treat their clients fairly.

Leng Shaoting had left for his task two days ago. He hadn’t come back, nor called or sent Gu Ning a message yet. Gu Ning understood that he must be occupied by his task, so she didn’t call or text him either.

In the morning, Gu Ning received Master Tang’s call. Master Tang was going back to City B soon, and he invited her to have a meal together before he left.

Gu Ning had mixed emotions now after she found out that Master Tang was her biological grandpa. Although it was Tang Aining in Gu Ning’s body now, they shared the same body and feelings.

“Girl Gu, come on and have a seat!” Tang Haifeng was excited and happy to see Gu Ning every time. He even stood up to welcome her in person.

“Grandpa Tang, please stay seated.” Gu Ning immediately walked over and helped Tang Haifeng sit down.

“Just call me grandpa!” Tang Haifeng complained a little.

“Sure, grandpa,” Gu Ning said again.

“Ha-ha, that’s great! What do you want to have? I’m leaving for City B this afternoon, and I don’t know when I can meet you again.” Tang Haifeng was slightly sad.

Gu Ning didn’t want to see Tang Haifeng being said, so she promised. “Grandpa, once I finish the National College Entrance Exam, I’ll visit you in City B. I promise.”

“Sure, sure.” Tang Haifeng was cheered up.

The two then enjoyed the meal while chatting in harmony. However, every time Tang Haifeng saw Gu Ning, he thought of Tang Yunfan, and couldn’t help sighing sometimes.

Gu Ning understood why Tang Haifeng sighed, but didn’t ask further in case he would be sadder.

However, Gu Ning couldn’t ignore it for very long, so she asked in the end, “Grandpa, why do you sigh frequently? Do you have an unhappy memory in your mind? Would you mind telling me?”

In fact, Tang Haifeng was willing to talk with Gu Ning about his worries. “Well, I’m just thinking of my second son. He works all day, all the time. I’m concerned about his health if he’s occupied by work 24/7. Besides, he’s already 42 now, but he refuses to get married, or have children. As his father, I know he actually feels lonely even though he’s busy working and looks fine.”

Tang Yunfan had been living his life for more than a decade, and Tang Haifeng should have gotten used to it earlier on, but Tang Haifeng was an aging old man. He thought that his life was about to end soon, and he was so worried about his second son, Tang Yunfan.

Chapter 295: Granddaughter

Hearing that, Gu Ning had sympathy for Tang Yunfan. And exactly because of what Tang Yunfan had been through, Gu Ning didn’t have dissatisfaction towards him because he had “abandoned” Gu Man. Tang Yunfan himself didn’t want it to happen after all.

“Why does he refuse to get married?” Gu Ning asked.

“We have no idea, because he won’t tell us, but I think that he doesn’t know the reason why he’s reluctant to be married either. In the beginning, we even doubted his sexual orientation, but he isn’t gay,” Tang Haifeng said resignedly. As Tang Yunfan’s father, he didn’t understand why his son refused to get married either.

“Maybe he already fell in love with a woman but couldn’t be with her, so he refuses to get married now,” Gu Ning said.

“I had the same idea before. I investigated it, but failed to find any clues,” Tang Haifeng replied.

“Master, I think that it has something to do with Lord Tang’s lost memory,” Tang Wu said. It was a previous guess, but lacked evidence so nobody believed it.

Tang Haifeng felt sadder and sighed.

“Grandpa, don’t worry. Life is full of changes. Maybe your son will change his mind one day in the future!” Gu Ning comforted Master Tang, although she knew that it was meaningless. If Tang Haifeng was able to let it go, he wouldn’t be so sad now.

Indeed, Master Tang understood what Gu Ning had just said, but he still had to accept the truth.

In order to not upset Gu Ning, Tang Haifeng pretended to be happy. “Sure! Life is full of changes. Although it’s a shame that Yunfan refuses to get married, I won’t force him to do so.”

Gu Ning understood that Master Tang was pretending, and immediately changed the depressing topic.

After the meal, Tang Haifeng gave Tang Wen a knowing glance, and Tang Wen immediately took out a box the size of a palm handing it to Tang Haifeng. “Girl Gu, since you’re my granddaughter now, this is a gift I am giving you as your grandpa,” Tang Haifeng said to Gu Ning.

“There are two cards in it. One is a Black Card for the Huangdeng Hotel. You can have free accommodation, meals and drinks in the Huangdeng Hotel chain across the country. The other one is a Black Card for the Fengshang Shopping Mall. You can shop there for free for your entire life. However, the monthly limit is a hundred thousand yuan. It isn’t much, but just my little gift. Please accept it, if you really regard me as your grandpa.”

Gu Ning didn’t know what to say, but could only take it. She didn’t know that the Tang Family owned the Huangdeng Hotel until now.

Huangdeng Hotel was a five-star hotel chain, and expanded across every city above third-tier. And the Fengshang Shopping Mall was also a well-known brand in this country. Tang Haifeng was indeed generous! With the two cards, Gu Ning could eat, drink, live and shop for free in this country!

Tang Haifeng was generous, and Gu Ning would also give him a valuable gift. “Thank you so much, grandpa!”

“I’ve prepared a gift for you too. Please accept it, if you really regard me as your granddaughter,” Gu Ning said, and took a box out of her backpack, giving it to Tang Haifeng.

“Really? What is it?” Tang Haifeng was surprised.

He opened the box, and there was a red object the size of three fingers in it. Before Tang Haifeng could ask, Gu Ning opened her mouth again. “It’s natural red coral. I planned to make a bracelet from it for you, but the time is limited, so I can only give you the raw material. Please don’t mind.”

“What? Natural red coral?” Tang Haifeng was astonished this time. Both Tang Wen and Tang Wu were shocked as well. They had all heard of the natural red coral, which was extremely rare and expensive. Gu Ning’s gift was worth at least millions of yuan!

“This-this is too expensive!” Tang Haifeng thought that it wasn’t necessary for Gu Ning who was just a teenage girl to give him such an expensive gift.

“Grandpa, please take it. If you don’t want my gift, I’ll give your gift back to you too,” Gu Ning deliberately said, and took out Master Tang’s gift at once.

Tang Haifeng immediately stopped her and said, “Fine… fine… fine, I’ll take it.”

Obviously, Gu Ning had already prepared the gift for him, which touched Tang Haifeng deeply.

They then chatted for a while longer before they separated.

Gu Ning proposed to send Tang Haifeng to the airport, but was declined, because Tang Haifeng didn’t want to waste her time. After that, Gu Ning went to her factory building.

She had planned to make money by stone gambling in City Teng within three days, but unexpectedly, a lot had happened and she had spent a week in City Teng. Luckily, the result wasn’t bad.

Gu Ning had actually not intended to unseat the Wang Family, but the Wang Family had kept annoying her, so she had to do it in the end.

So now Gu Ning had already finished her business in City Teng and decided to leave for the capital.

Although her companies in City Teng were all newly established, she wasn’t worried about them at all, because most people were in awe of her after she got the Wang Family’s raw material exploitation right like lightning.

Chapter 296: To the Capital

However, Leng Shaoting wasn’t back yet, so Gu Ning would wait until he came back.

That afternoon, Leng Shaoting called Gu Ning and told her that his task was fulfilled. It was time for dinner, so Gu Ning told Leng Shaoting to meet her at a restaurant beside the hotel where they stayed.

Half an hour later, Gu Ning arrived and Leng Shaoting was already waiting for her.

Once she opened the door, her eyes met his. They had missed each other so much even though they had just been apart for two days. Maybe it was because they were madly in love now. However, there was a waiter in the private room. Otherwise, Leng Shaoting would have run over and hugged Gu Ning in his arms.

The minute that the waiter left, Leng Shaoting couldn’t wait and immediately pressed Gu Ning to him. He held her body tightly. After a while, seeing that Leng Shaoting had no intention to let her go, Gu Ning struggled a little. “Alright, if the waiter comes in suddenly, it’ll be embarrassing.”

Leng Shaoting then let her go reluctantly. If they hadn’t been in a public place, Leng Shaoting would have done much more than just hugging her tightly.

Even though Leng Shaoting sat apart from Gu Ning, his eyes were fixed on her. Like if he moved his sight away, Gu Ning would disappear.

Gu Ning felt uneasy and asked, “Why are you staring at me all the time?”

“I want to look at you,” Leng Shaoting said gently with affection.

“I forbid you to do that,” Gu Ning pretended to be mad.

“No, I insist.” Leng Shaoting still fixed his eyes on Gu Ning.

Gu Ning laughed, and left it. “When will you be leaving for the capital?”

“No idea, but I’m free now.” Leng Shaoting had told Xu Jinchen and the others to go back to the capital but he stayed. Leng Shaoting had always been mysterious, so Xu Jinchen and others just gossiped sometimes but didn’t ask further. They understood that Leng Shaoting was involved in both military and business.

In fact, Leng Shaoting had many things to deal with, but he didn’t need to deal with them in person, so he cleared his schedule to keep Gu Ning company.

“I’m free too, and I’m going to the capital tomorrow,” Gu Ning said.

“Sure, then we can go to the capital together,” Leng Shaoting said.

Before long, the dishes were on the table. Leng Shaoting had ordered many for Gu Ning.

During the meal, Leng Shaoting kept putting different dished into Gu Ning’s bowl, and they soon piled up. “What are you doing? I’m not a pig!” Gu Ning was a little mad.

“Don’t worry. You can eat as slowly as you want. You’re so slim and I’m worried that you’re not really eating normally.” Leng Shaoting ignored Gu Ning’s complaint.

Gu Ning was slim, but she was healthy too. Moreover, she was satisfied with her body.

“I don’t think that I’m too slim. I think my body is fine!” Gu Ning retorted.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting’s sight scanned Gu Ning’s body from head to toe. Gu Ning flushed and immediately dropped the topic.

…

The next day around 8 am, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting left together for the airport.

Zheng Peng, Gao Yi and Qiao Ya would help Gu Ning manage her business in City Teng while she was absent. The Wang Family was totally doomed, so her companies would be safe.

Before she left, Gu Ning also called Zhang Decheng to say good-bye. Zhang Decheng invited her to have a meal together, but the time was limited so he was disappointed when she declined. Zhang Decheng had already made up his mind to make friends with Gu Ning.

Gu Ning had spent a week in City Teng, and she had to be back to City F five days before the New Year festival, so she could only stay in the capital for another week.

When they were getting aboard, Gu Ning had mixed emotions, because she was heading to the place which she was most familiar with in her previous incarnation. She didn’t know whether she would meet her enemies, nor her reaction when she really met them.

Although now she thought that she wouldn’t lose her mind, she had no idea whether she could stay calm when they appeared in her sight. Would she lose control and attack them?

Thinking of Qi Ziyue and Tang Yaxin, Gu Ning couldn’t help being mad. “What’s wrong?” Leng Shaoting held her hand in his palm and asked worriedly having sensed her emotional change.

“Nothing. I’m just wondering how I can find a good office building for my company in the capital,” Gu Ning smiled to him.

“Let me help,” Leng Shaoting said without hesitation.

“Sure, thanks!” Gu Ning didn’t reject. The capital fell within the spread of Leng Shaoting’s influence, and it would be much easier for him to handle something than if Gu Ning did it herself. Gu Ning understood that she should make full use of her network.

Leng Shaoting was happy that Gu Ning agreed.

However, Gu Ning didn’t relax even though Leng Shaoting was with her. She still felt nervous and angry.

It took two hours to fly from City Teng to the capital. Gu Ning wasn’t in a good mood, and didn’t feel like talking, so she leaned against Leng Shaoting’s shoulder and closed her eyes.

Leng Shaoting thought that Gu Ning was tired, so he didn’t bother her.

Both Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting sat in first class. Gu Ning sat by the window and Leng Shaoting sat by the aisle.

Chapter 297: Flight Accident I

There was a young and stylish beauty that was around 27-years-old sitting across the aisle from Leng Shaoting. When she noticed him, her eyes lit up. This man is so sexy and handsome! She had seen many good-looking guys, but none of them could compare with the one in front of her eyes. He was so attractive! In addition, people who sat in the first class must either be rich or powerful. If she could have a relationship with him, it would be of great help to her too.

“Hi, this is my name card. Why don’t we make friends with each other?” The woman wore a perfect smile, making eyes at Leng Shaoting. She didn’t care about Gu Ning, who was obviously his girlfriend, at all. However, Leng Shaoting ignored her. The woman felt embarrassed, and her hand with the name card stiffened in the air. She had never been humiliated in public like that.

“Gee, what a blind bitch! Apparently this handsome man isn’t single.” A female voice sounded from the seat behind Leng Shaoting.

She was also a young woman that was around 25-years-old and dressed simply, but her clothes were all designer brands. She hated to see flirts.

“It’s none of your business!” the woman glared and snapped at her.

“It is. Because I felt disgusted and I’m afraid that I’ll be sick!” the woman behind Leng Shaoting said ironically.

“What did you say?” The woman was mad and stood up abruptly, like she was going to beat her. However, before she could move, a flight attendant interrupted her. “Miss, the plane is about to take off. Please fasten your seat belt.”

The woman glared at the other woman who sat behind Leng Shaoting and sat back in her own seat. She even swore at Leng Shaoting in a low voice, “Just a stupid man.”

Gu Ning heard it and opened her eyes looking at the woman coldly. The woman was scared and immediately turned her head away. Her heart was beating very fast, as if she just had survived death.

She tried to flirt with Leng Shaoting, but was ignored, so Gu Ning didn’t want to waste time on her. Seeing Gu Ning being a little mad, Leng Shaoting was also unhappy.

“What the f*ck! I’ve never seen such a shameless flirt. What a bitch!” the woman who sat behind Leng Shaoting couldn’t help swearing.

“You…” The woman who sat beside Leng Shaoting was furious, but once she turned, she met Gu Ning’s cold glance, which scared her.

The plane finally took off. And around one and half an hour later, the plane encountered severe turbulence during the flight. Everyone was terrified, screaming.

Gu Ning abruptly sat upright in fear, and Leng Shaoting clasped her hand trying to comfort her. Luckily, they were all seated when the plane encountered the turbulence, so nobody was injured. They thought that it was just normal turbulence, but unexpectedly, just seconds later, the plane encountered more severe turbulence. Some passengers were even weeping after that.

At this time, a flight attendant announced on the radio, “Dear passengers, please do not worry. The plane is encountering airflow, so it’s a little unsteady. Please fasten your seat belt, and do not leave the seat. Please stay quiet, and thank you for your cooperation!”

Just a little unsteady? It was severe turbulence and happened twice consecutively! The flight attendant’s announcement failed to comfort the passengers in the plane.

“Will the plane fall straight down? I don’t want to die! My good life just began!” the woman who sat beside Leng Shaoting across the aisle cried. However, the woman who sat behind Leng Shaoting immediately snapped at her, “Shut your mouth! It won’t fall down! Stop talking b*llshit!”

…

Both Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting wore a serious expression. They had a great sense for danger and it was obvious that they were in a dangerous situation right now.

Gu Ning’s face started to turn pale, and her body was trembling. It wasn’t easy for her to be reborn, and she had just begun to run her businesses. She hadn’t gotten her revenge yet, and wasn’t willing to die in an accident like this.

No!

“Ningning, don’t worry. You sit here and I’ll find out what’s going on,” Leng Shaoting said and stood up, walking to the cab. However, just as he walked to the entrance of the cab, he was stopped by a flight attendant who was seated by the door. “Sir, please go back to your seat.”

Leng Shaoting directly took out his military officer certificate, and the flight attendant was surprised. Leng Shaoting was so young and he was already a major general!

“What is going on?” Leng Shaoting asked.

Knowing Leng Shaoting’s identity, the flight attendant didn’t dare to hide the truth. “There are several flying birds, and the pilot is trying to avoid them, which is causing the severe turbulence.”

“This is my flying license. I need to have a look.” Leng Shaoting showed them his other license and decided to walk inside in case any accident happened.

“Sure.” The flight attendant immediately opened the door for Leng Shaoting.

Gu Ning also heard what the flight attendant had said, and she knew that it was very dangerous if the plane encountered flying birds. According to the momentum theorem, if a 0.45-kilogram bird collided with an aircraft moving at 800 km/h, it would cause an impact of 153 kilograms. If a 7-kilogram big bird hit jet moving at 960 km/h, the impact would rise up to 144 tons. In that case, a sparrow alone was able to crash the engine of the plane if it impacted with it.

If the bird was drawn into the engine through the air intake of the of the aircraft’s turbine, it would cause damage to the blades which was worth dozens of thousands of yuan each due to distortion. It could also force the engine to stop. If the bird caught fire in the machine, the plane would crash and explode. In other words, a flying bird could cause a serious flight accident.

Chapter 298: Flight Accident II

Facing such an emergency, Gu Ning had no solution, but she trusted that Leng Shaoting would handle it well.

There were two pilots, a pilot-in-command as well as a co-pilot, and an observer in the cab. However, the pilot-in-command had hit his head and he had fainted during the second turbulence. The observer was pulling the captain out of his chair and the co-pilot was flying the plane.

Hearing that the door was being pushed open, the observer turned around and noticed a flight attendant guiding a stranger inside. He snapped at once, “What’s wrong with you? Don’t you know that passengers can’t enter the cab?”

Before the flight attendant could explain, Leng Shaoting directly showed him his flight license and military officer certificate. “I can help.”

Seeing Leng Shaoting’s flight license and military officer certificate, the observer was amazed but closed his mouth.

The plane would still suddenly shake and bump, but it was obviously lighter than before. However, it didn’t eliminate the passengers’ fear, and some were still scared and screaming.

All of a sudden, a person raised her voice, “Jesus! Someone just hit his head and is bleeding!”

Hearing that, Gu Ning immediately unfastened her seat belt and strode to the injured man.

“Is there any doctors on this plane?” a flight attendant asked loudly.

The injured man was around 20-years-old and there was blood coming out of the left side of his head.

Gu Ning took out the small medicine box from her backpack at once, and said to the flight attendant, “Let me through. I can help him.” Gu Ning sounded determined.

“You? Stop kidding. You’re just a teenager.” The flight attendant doubted her ability.

“I can take the responsibility if anything bad happens to him,” Gu Ning added.

“How can you be responsible for the result?” the flight attendant replied with disdain.

Other passengers around them also didn’t believe Gu Ning, but they were busy looking after themselves in such a dangerous situation.

Time was precious, and Gu Ning stopped arguing with the flight attendant. She moved the flight attendant’s arms and gave her a cold glance. The flight attendant lost her breath at once and was struck dumb, standing still.

Gu Ning then checked the man’s wound. The wound wasn’t new and the man must have been hurt in the same place a short time before. It was sutured, but it hadn’t completely healed yet. So after the knock during the turbulence, the wound suddenly broke open.

Gu Ning took out a cotton swab and hydrogen peroxide to clean the wound, and then used gauze to wrap it up. While doing that, Gu Ning secretly put her power into the wound to stop it from bleeding and relieve his pain. However, in order to not reveal her secret, Gu Ning didn’t directly heal his wound, but only prevented the wounds from deteriorating..

Before long, the man regained consciousness. Although he was dizzy because of the pain just then, he clearly knew what was happening, so he thanked Gu Ning at once, “Thank you so much!”

Seeing that the man was awake, people began to believe in Gu Ning’s ability.

“Oh! Someone is having a heart attack!”

However, just after Gu Ning finished wrapping the man’s wound, another passenger was in danger. Under the violent bumps and turbulence, it was easy to cause diseases such as heart attacks and high blood pressure.

Without further ado, Gu Ning went to the person who was having the heat attack. This time, nobody dared to stop her, or doubt her ability.

The man who was having a heart attack was around 50-years-old and Gu Ning recognized his face. He was Lu Zhan, a famous domestic director, and many of his films had won accolades domestically and abroad. However, he had annoyed an important figure of power two years ago, so he had been forbidden to shoot films till now.

Gu Ning squatted before him, and pressed on his chest with her hands in a regular pattern. Of course, she used the movement to disguise the fact that she was secretly putting her power into his chest. Like what had happened to Tang Haifeng before, once the power flew into his chest, Lu Zhan gradually caught his breath and went back to normal.

Passengers around them were all amazed by the scene. However, before Gu Ning was able to remove her hands, another person in the plane fainted as well.

…

When the plane had encountered the flying birds, which caused violent bumps and shaking, the pilot had already contacted the airport tower and sent out an emergency help signal.

And now, the plane’s accident was announced at the capital airport.

The latest news: a plane flying to the capital encountered a flock of birds in the air. The plane has encountered severe turbulence multiple times. The pilot-in-command passed out by accidentally knocking his head and the co-pilot is controlling the plane. Currently the plane is still in danger, and there are 267 passengers and 12 staff members in the plane.

Meanwhile, there was a list of passengers’ names shown on the LED screen in the hall.

The minute the news was released, everyone was shocked. Although the plane hadn’t crashed, it was still in danger. Besides, what if some passengers suddenly had a heart attack or some other urgent disease during the turbulence? Everyone was worried about the safety of the people in the plane, especially the passengers’ families and friends who came to pick them up.

Xu Jinchen’s cousin, Xu Qinyin, came to the airport to pick up her best friend who just flew back from abroad, and heard the terrible news. She read the list of passengers’ names at the same time. The Xu Family and the Leng Family had known each other for generations, so Xu Qinyin was familiar with Leng Shaoting too. She was shocked when she saw Leng Shaoting’s name on the LED screen. Without delay, Xu Qinyin called Xu Jinchen. Because of the anxiety, she was trembling and her phone almost fell.

Xu Jinchen was watching TV in his home when his phone suddenly rang. Seeing that the caller was Xu Qinyin, there was a gentle smile on Xu Jinchen’s lips. However, before he could say a word when he answered the call, Xu Qinyin said in a trembling voice, “Jinchen, Shaoting is on a plane from City Teng to the capital now, but the plane encountered a flock of flying birds. It also encountered severe turbulence, and is still in danger now!”

“What?” Xu Jinchen jumped up from his sofa horrified.

Chapter 299: Qiu Yuxin

How is it possible? Why?

“I’ll be right there,” Xu Jinchen said, then ran outside, and almost knocked his father who was walking inside over.

Xu Jifan criticized, “Watch where you are going!” However, within seconds, Xu Jinchen disappeared from his sight. Xu Jifan frowned. Apparently, it was an emergency.

Xu Jinchen drove to the airport at a high speed and crossed the roads even if the traffic lights were red. He kept praying for Leng Shaoting’s safety.

Coincidentally, Situ Ye and Chu Xuanfeng had just arrived at the airport in City G and they were leaving for City B.

The accident that had happened to the plane from City Teng to the capital was also shown on the LED screen in the hall of the airport in City G, so both Situ Ye and Chu Xuanfeng noticed the terrible news too. When they saw Gu Ning’s name, they were shocked. Especially Situ Ye, his heart ached severely and his face turned pale at once. He didn’t realize that he cared about Gu Ning so much until this moment.

He immediately took out his phone to call Gu Ning. He hoped that they were different people who just had the same name. He wished Gu Ning, the one who he knew, were still safe and alive. However, Gu Ning’s phone was powered off.

“Xuanfeng, you go to City B first, I need to leave for the capital right now,” Situ Ye said to Chu Xuanfeng and turned around walking to ticket office without delay.

Chu Xuanfeng understood his boss’s affection towards Gu Ning, so he didn’t stop him. Not to mention Situ Ye who liked Gu Ning, even Chu Xuanfeng who regarded Gu Ning as his friend was worried about her safety.

The news continued to be released in the following hours. It was reported that there was a passenger who knocked his head and the wound was bleeding badly, while there were other passengers who suddenly had a heart attack, fainted because of high blood pressure, or got injured and so forth. The ambulances together with a medical staff had to stay ready.

Once the news was released, many people were more worried. If anyone had an urgent problem or injury in a flying plane, it was highly possible to die!

Those who came to the airport to pick up their aged families were especially worried, they were greatly concerned about their families’ safety.

“What should we do? Grandpa has hypertension!”

“It’ll be fine. It’ll be fine.”

…

“Honey, there is a wound on our son’s head, and it’s not completely healed yet. What if it splits? It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have urged him to come back today.”

“Don’t worry. He’ll be fine. He will.”

A dozen minutes later, the plane was finally under control. Except for the passengers in the first class, the rest of the people had no idea that Leng Shaoting was the hero. Although the crisis was resolved, everyone was still pretty nervous because the plane hadn’t landed safely yet. Nobody knew whether there would be more accidents on the way to landing.

It was an extremely painful period of time when they were waiting for the landing. And it was very strange that the plane had encountered such a large flock of flying birds, which had never happened before. In addition, it was a miracle that the plane had safely avoided so many flying birds!

All in all, Gu Ning saved a young man with a head injury, Lu Zhan with heart attack, two elderly people with hypertension, and a woman with a dislocated wrist. As for other people who were only slightly injured, Gu Ning didn’t have time to help them. And Gu Ning had consumed a lot of power, so her face turned pale.

All of the injured passengers who had been rescued by Gu Ning thanked her continuously. Although nobody knew how Gu Ning had been able to rescue them, they all admired her bravery and ability.

At this time, Leng Shaoting walked out from the cab. He noticed that Gu Ning was in economy class, so he walked towards her at once.

When he stopped before Gu Ning, he saw that her face was very pale and that she looked weak. His heart ached and he immediately held her in his arms, walking back to their seats.

A flight attendant poured a cup of water for Gu Ning and thanked them for what they had done.

When the news that the plane was safe and all the patients were rescued was announced in the airport of the capital, everyone was relieved, but nobody knew who had rescued them.

Xu Jinchen was halfway there when he received Xu Qinyin’s call again. Even though he got to know that the plane was safe now, he still drove at a high speed heading to the airport. He wouldn’t relax until he saw Leng Shaoting in person. Situ Ye had the same feeling. If he couldn’t see Gu Ning with his own eyes, he wouldn’t relax.

Half an hour later, the plane had already entered the airspace above the capital. When the radio announced that the plane was about to land, everyone exclaimed and applauded with excitement.

Gu Ning was finally relieved too. She had to admit that she was scared to death during that period of time, because she had died once and now cherished life more than ever. In her previous incarnation, she had died with disappointment and animosity, but in this incarnation, she had already found her love and didn’t want to die now.

After resting for half an hour, Gu Ning was back to normal.

Xu Jinchen had already arrived at the exit and was waiting for Leng Shaoting. He thought that Leng Shaoting was alone, but when he saw Gu Ning, he immediately understood why his boss had been absent for so long. However, it wasn’t the right time to gossip.

Xu Qinyin had already picked her best friend up, but she was worried about Leng Shaoting, so she stayed with Xu Jinchen and waited for him.

Xu Qinyin’s best friend was named Qiu Yuxin, she was 25-years-old and 177cm tall. She had a perfect body as well as a beautiful face, and was a well-known model domestically. Qiu Yuxin had met Leng Shaoting once, and couldn’t forget him. She always wanted to meet him again. And she was coming back home for two months this time after she had studied abroad, but unexpectedly heard the terrible news about the plane. She was even more worried about Leng Shaoting than Xu Qinyin was.

Chapter 300: Leng Shaoting’s Girlfriend

Fifteen minutes later, the plane landed safely at the airport in the capital. There were ambulances waiting already, and the injured passengers were sent to the hospital the minute that they got off the plane. Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting instead left directly.

Leng Shaoting was tall and extraordinarily handsome. Once he appeared, he attracted a lot of attention from people around him, and even caused a round of acclamation.

“Wow! He’s so handsome!”

“Is he a star or something?”

“I think that he is more handsome than all the male stars that I’ve known!”

“Exactly! Do you notice that he has an air of power and nobility? I think he’s either a super-rich man or a man of power. He’s a perfect Mr. Charming!”

“Ha-ha. I think you’ve read too many romantic novels about Mr. Charming!”

“Don’t forget I’m a writer myself!”

The talk among those girls interested Gu Ning, because Leng Shaoting indeed had an air of natural nobility. In fact, he was both a super-rich man and a man of power. It was hard to ignore him among people on the roads.

“I wish I had a boyfriend like him!” the girl who was a writer said.

…

The group of girls all complimented Leng Shaoting in excitement.

And some of them even followed Leng Shaoting, even though Gu Ning was by his side. They just wanted to have a closer look at him, like fans meeting their idol.

When Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting walked to the exit, they noticed Xu Jinchen, and immediately realized why he was here.

The moment that Xu Jinchen saw Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning, he almost cried.

“Shaoting!” Xu Qinyin raised her voice in excitement.

Qiu Yuxin also saw Leng Shaoting, but her smile was frozen on her face when she noticed that Leng Shaoting held Gu Ning’s hand. It was obvious that they were a couple. Although she didn’t know much about Leng Shaoting, she had heard a bit about him from Xu Qinyin. Xu Qinyin told her that Leng Shaoting was always cold and never had a girlfriend, so they all believed that he would be single forever. At that time, Qiu Yuxin thought that she still had a chance.

She wasn’t very clear about Leng Shaoting’s background, but he was Xu Jinchen’s best friend. Xu Jinchen was from a super-rich family, and so Leng Shaoting had to be of the same level. In addition, Qiu Yuxin’s family was also a well-known rich family in City B, and she was a sexy beauty. She thought that she and Leng Shaoting were perfect together.

Indeed, although the Qiu Family couldn’t compare with the Leng Family, there wasn’t a huge gap either. Moreover, Qiu Yuxin and Leng Shaoting matched each other perfectly from appearance.

“Who is that girl?” Xu Qinyin was surprised to see Gu Ning. Leng Shaoting never dated or had a girlfriend, but now, he held a girl’s hand on his own initiative.

Xu Jinchen didn’t answer her question, but walked straight to Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning. “Shaoting!” Xu Jinchen hugged Leng Shaoting with great force.

“I’m fine,” Leng Shaoting comforted him.

Xu Jinchen then looked to Gu Ning. “Hi, so nice to meet you again! I’m surprised that Shaoting has abandoned us for you!”

Seeing that they were both safe and sound, Xu Jinchen was in a good mood to tease them.

He had had a sense that Leng Shaoting treated Gu Ning differently, so he wasn’t very shocked when they showed up like a close couple.

Gu Ning smiled a little. “Nice to meet you too! It’s been ages!”

“Indeed! Since you’re in the capital now, let me be your guide! I’m free these days and I can…” However, before he could finish, he received a cold glance from Leng Shaoting, and stopped all of a sudden. Xu Jinchen quickly realized that Gu Ning was his boss’s girlfriend now, and his boss would take good care of her.

“Shaoting!” Xu Qinyin called Leng Shaoting. She admired and was in awe of him.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Leng.” Qiu Yuxin greeted Leng Shaoting politely. She didn’t show her admiration towards him at all.

Leng Shaoting glanced at them and answered lightly. He was familiar with Xu Qinyin, but had no impression of Qiu Yuxin.

“Shaoting, is this your girlfriend?” Xu Qinyin took a look at Gu Ning and deliberately asked.

“Yes,” Leng Shaoting said seriously.

Although they already knew the answer, they were still slightly surprised when Leng Shaoting admitted it himself. Especially Qiu Yuxin, her heart ached a little, but her face stayed calm.

“Hi, my name’s Xu Qinyin. I’m Xu Jinchen’s cousin. May I know your name?” Xu Qinyin said to Gu Ning. Xu Qinyin didn’t know that Qiu Yuxin liked Leng Shaoting, and she had no position to interfere in their personal affairs. If Leng Shaoting and Qiu Yuxin liked each other, Xu Qinyun would absolutely support them, but Leng Shaoting already had a girlfriend now, so she could do nothing about it.

“Nice to meet you. My name’s Gu Ning,” Gu Ning replied politely.

Gu Ning behaved in an elegant way, and didn’t seem like a teenager at all, which left a great impression on Qiu Yuxin and Xu Qinyin.

“Gu Ning, this is my best friend, Qiu Yuxin,” Xu Qinyin introduced Qiu Yuxin to Gu Ning.

“Nice to meet you, Miss Gu!” Qiu Yuxin opened her mouth first. She didn’t take Gu Ning as her enemy just because she was Leng Shaoting’s girlfriend. Although she liked Leng Shaoting and felt sad that he already had a girlfriend, she was a well-educated woman with great manners. She wouldn’t get involved in their relationship as the other woman.
