Chapter 641: Grandpa VS. Girlfriend

When Leng Shaoting was gone, Gu Ning surfed on the Internet to see people’s reaction to the ad of Jade Beauty Jewelry. Afterwards, Gu Ning called Gu Man and asked her how everything was going now.

Gu Man told her that everything was going very well.

Gu Ning didn’t ask her about her relationship with Tang Yunfan, because Gu Ning thought that it was better to let them deal with it themselves. She told Gu Man that the skincare products would be delivered to City F in two days.

After hanging up the call with Gu Ning, Gu Man called Gu Qing and told her that the skincare products would soon be delivered to City F.

Gu Ning took a rest for a while, then went to the building of her corporation.

In Colaine pharmacy, although there weren’t as many customers right now as there were during the morning, it was still quite popular.

Cai Yaofeng was the heir of Xinghe Pharmaceutical Company. He was a young man who was around 24 years old, and his girlfriend pulled him to shop for skincare products in Kouzi store. However, when Cai Yaofeng noticed Colaine pharmacy next to Kouzi store, he was astonished.

Hasn’t father ruined Colaine’s business? Colaine can’t pass the drug control, and almost went bankrupt. How come it’s open here right now, and is even so popular? How did they manage to put their medicines on the market? Does Colaine have a new boss?

Cai Yaofeng couldn’t figure it out, then Ning Changkai walked by the door. Cai Yaofeng was shocked, and called his father at once.

“Dad, haven’t you ruined Colaine’s business? It’s open now, and I just saw Ning Changkai!” Cai Yaofeng said.

“What? Colaine is open, and you just saw Ning Changkai?” Cai Yaofeng’s father, Cai Qinyi, couldn’t believe his ears. “Are you sure?”

Cai Qinyi couldn’t accept it. He had already bribed a leader in the State Food and Drug Administration, and Colaine would never pass the drug control. Exactly because of that, Colaine almost went bankrupt, but why it was open now all of a sudden? Who helped Ning Changkai?

“Yes, I’m sure! Wait a second. I’ll send photos to you,” Cai Yaofeng said, then took a picture of Ning Changkai and Colaine before he sent them to Cai Qinyi.

Seeing the photos, Cai Qinyi was shocked. He called the office leader of SFDA at once, but nobody answered. Cai Qinyi was displeased because he knew that something must be wrong if nobody answered his call. He was also worried that he could have been exposed, which would be dangerous. Even so, he was still unwilling to see Ning Changkai running a more successful business than his.

No matter what, Cai Qinyi had to do something about it right away, so he called his secretary and said, “Go collect the latest information about Colaine, and try to contact the office leader of SFDA!” He was eager to know whether the office leader had betrayed him.

“Yes, sir,” his secretary said, then left.

When Leng Shaoting was at the Leng family’s house, Master Leng was alone in it, because the other members had all left for work or school.

Today was a sunny day, and Master Leng was ambling in the yard, so he saw Leng Shaoting the moment he walked inside.

Although Master Leng was very happy to see him, he put on a serious face and said, “Oh, I haven’t seen you for a long time! I thought that you went to meet your girlfriend. It turns out that you still remember that you have a grandpa!”

“I already met her,” Leng Shaoting said, and didn’t care whether it would hurt Master Leng’s feelings.

Hearing that, Master Leng was annoyed. In the beginning, Master Leng was excited to see Leng Shaoting, but now he was quite upset after Leng Shaoting said that. His girlfriend was more important than his grandpa in his eyes!

“Here, a gift from Ningning for you.” Leng Shaoting gave the wooden box to Master Leng.

Master Leng was cheered up at once, and took the box. He opened it, and saw gold bars inside. These gold bars were neatly lettered with a mark of the Tang Dynasty, which meant they were made in the Tang Dynasty. Although Master Leng couldn’t tell whether they were real or not, he believed that Gu Ning wouldn’t send fake treasure to him.

Master Leng was thrilled to receive this gift from his further granddaughter-in-law.

“Your girlfriend is really a great girl!” Master Leng complimented.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was very happy.

In fact, Gu Ning still felt a little guilty because she had charged Master Leng for the antique in her store, so she sent this gift to him to make up for it. She knew that Master Leng wouldn’t mind it, but she still thought that it was better to send him a gift again.

Gu Ning also knew that Master Leng loved paintings, so she planned to give him The Confederate Rose by Water painted by Tang Yin at the formal meeting with him.

“Let’s go talk in the study,” Master Leng said, then walked to the study, followed by Leng Shaoting.

“How is the investigation of the Shen family going?” Master Leng asked when they were in the study.

“I’ve sent an undercover agent to the Kirin Gang, and he works for Long Tianhu now, but he hasn’t gotten any evidence yet. The Shen family is very cautious, so we have to be patient,” Leng Shaoting said.

Chapter 642: Meet Leng Shaojia

If they were going to unseat the Shen family, they had to seize the best opportunity. Leng Shaoting would never allow them to survive. His parents had been killed precisely because their enemies had survived, and he wouldn’t make that mistake again.

“You’re right,” Master Leng said.

“Oh, how long will you stay here with me this time?” Master Leng asked.

“I’ll leave right after dinner; I have something else to deal with,” Leng Shaoting said. Actually, he was eager to go back to Gu Ning’s side now.

“Why do you have to leave in a hurry?” Master Leng was disappointed, but he wouldn’t stop Leng Shaoting from leaving.

In the hospital.

Cao Wenxin didn’t remember that it was Ai Xinyu’s birthday until she received Ai Xinyu’s call around 5 pm. She came to the capital to attend Ai Xinyu’s birthday party, but now she was absent from it! However, she thought that it wasn’t appropriate to leave Xin Bei alone in the hospital.

Seeing Cao Wenxin getting restless, Xin Bei asked her, “What’s wrong?” “Um, actually today’s my friend’s birthday,” Cao Wenxin said with embarrassment.

“Don’t worry. You can leave if you like.” Xin Bei understood that Cao Wenxin hesitated to leave because of him.

“Are you sure you’ll be fine alone here?” Cao Wenxin felt a little guilty. She promised to take care of him, but she was going to leave him alone now.

“If you’re worried about me, you can visit me tonight after the party,” Xin Bei said. In fact, there was no need for her to keep him company the entire time, but he enjoyed her company.

“Sure, then I’ll visit you tonight,” Cao Wenxin said. “Oh, what do you want to eat? I can help you order some.”

Xin Bei thought for a while, then said, “Well, it’s said that what you eat can improve certain parts of your body. I think I need to improve my brain now, so please help me order fish head soup.”

“Ha-ha.” Cao Wenxin snorted with laughter. “No problem.”

She called the Huangdeng Hotel and told them to prepare fish head soup right now and deliver it to the hospital.

Cao Wenxin was a great beauty, and her smile stunned Xin Bei.

When it was 6 pm, other members of the Leng family came home after work. Leng Yuanqian’s family was displeased to see Leng Shaoting, and only Leng Yuanzhen’s family greeted him kindly.

Leng Shaoting treated them the same way back.

Leng Shaoxun and Leng Shaoxi stayed in their schools, and Leng Shaojia was having fun with her friends, so they were all absent.

Gu Ning was also about to dine with Song Manni and Xia Yichu.

She had been in the capital for a few days, and Xia Yichu finally had a chance to meet her. Gu Ning was Xia Yichu’s idol now, not only because Gu Ning had helped her a lot, but also because of the news about Gu Ning.

Precisely because of the popular news about Gu Ning, many reporters wanted to interview her, and even went to her school. Unfortunately, Gu Ning was absent, and the principal refused to give them Gu Ning’s phone number without Gu Ning’s permission.

Xia Yichu also thanked Gu Ning in person for the skincare products she had sent her.

Although Xia Yichu hadn’t had her debut yet, and she could hang out wherever and whenever she wanted, she wouldn’t be able to do it once she became famous.

They didn’t go dine in a luxurious hotel, but went to the biggest commercial district in the capital. It wasn’t far from the building of Gu Ning’s corporation, and it only took several minutes of driving for them to get there.

Gu Ning still drove Chen Cangyi’s car. Her corporation wasn’t open for business yet, so she hadn’t bought cars.

This commercial district with a long history was located downtown, and there were many time-honored shops along the streets.

There was a large delicious section of the city in the center of this commercial district, providing varied traditional food and exotic food.

They didn’t know what to eat, so they decided to walk around to see what they wanted. In the end, they found a local hotpot restaurant. Although there weren’t private rooms and people were all eating in a big hall, it was super popular. Therefore, Gu Ning and the others thought that it’s food must be very good and walked inside.

“Hi, are there any vacant seats?” Gu Ning asked.

“Miss, you’re very lucky today. There is one vacant table,” the waitress said with a smile.

“I’ll book it!” Before Gu Ning could say a word, another female voice sounded from behind them.

Hearing that, Gu Ning and the others were annoyed and turned back to look at the woman. The woman also came with two female friends, and they were all in their early twenties.

Gu Ning stared straight at the woman who just booked the table before her. The woman was very beautiful, but she had bad physiognomy. Her face was skinny with prominent cheekbones and a sharp chin. There were also wrinkles in the middle of her eyebrows. Her physiognomy showed that she could be very unkind. Although physiognomy didn’t mean everything, Gu Ning knew that the woman was very aggressive, rude, and hot-tempered from her previous behavior.

“I’m sorry, miss, but we came here earlier than you,” Gu Ning said coldly.

“I didn’t hear you book it before me,” the woman said with disdain while looking at Gu Ning. Actually, this woman was Leng Shaojia.

Leng Shaojia was competing against Gu Ning for the table, not because she disliked Gu Ning, but because she was arrogant and self-centered. Besides, she was hungry now.

“It’s ridiculous! I just asked the waitress whether there are any vacant seats, and I was going to book the table, but you interrupted me!” Gu Ning said with annoyance.

“Miss, could you please wait for a while? Some diners are almost finished eating, and there will be more vacant seats,” the waitress said to Leng Shaojia.

“No, I want the last vacant table!” Leng Shaojia said without hesitation.

Chapter 643: Play the Blame Game

“Well…” The waitress felt cornered. Seeing that Leng Shaojia was unwilling to retreat, she turned to Gu Ning and asked, “Miss, would you please wait for a few minutes?” In her eyes, Gu Ning was more considerate.

Gu Ning was indeed considerate most of the time, but she wouldn’t be friendly to those who were rude and domineering, so she asked the waitress, “I think it depends on the rules of your restaurant. First come, first served, or occupy the seats by violence?”

Hearing that, the waitress was struck dumb for a second. The restaurant, of course, served the diners in order of arrival, but the women who came here later seemed very aggressive. If they didn’t get the table, they could argue or even fight here, which would affect other diners.

However, this restaurant always obeyed the rule that the first customer was served first. If they broke the rule this time, it would damage the reputation of this restaurant, which would affect its business in the future. After thinking about it, the waitress decided to side with Gu Ning.

“Miss, please follow me,” she said to Gu Ning.

“Hey, what do you mean?” Leng Shaojia was mad and shouted in anger, “I booked the seat first, so why are you guiding her inside before me?”

Leng Shaojia was playing the blame game now. In fact, Leng Shaojia was so hot-tempered today because she was in a bad mood, otherwise she would tolerate it for the sake of the Leng family’s reputation.

Leng Shaojia’s angry shout attracted a lot of attention from other diners in the restaurant.

In a corner, Jiang Ruiqin was dining with Tang Qingyang. The dishes had just been served on the table, so they turned to look over. However, at first glance they didn’t see Leng Shaojia whose voice they were familiar with, but Gu Ning.

Seeing Gu Ning, Jiang Ruiqin’s eyes lit up at once and he walked towards her.

Tang Qingyang shook his head with a resigned look.

“What’s going on here.” The manager of the restaurant walked over after hearing the noise.

The waitress immediately reported to the manager on what just had happened. The manager seemed displeased after hearing it, and turned to look at the group of Leng Shaojia. “Miss, I’m sorry, but we always serve diners in order of arrival. If you still want to dine here, please wait for a while. If not, please go dine in another restaurant.”

“How dare you talk to us like that? Do you know who we are?” the woman stood by Leng Shaojia’s right side said arrogantly. “I was born in the Shi family.”

The Shi family was a famous super-rich family in the capital, and the manager was slightly scared.

Although Leng Shaojia was from a much more powerful family than her friends’, she seldom exposed her identity, unless it was necessary. Master Leng had warned them not to use the Leng family’s name to do bad things, or they would be punished according to their family’s principles.

Normally, the person would be locked in a small dark room for three days without anything to eat and just water to drink, which could cause a mental breakdown. Leng Shaojia had been punished once, and she didn’t want to suffer it again, so she would use her friends’ family background to bully others. Anyway, it was already enough.

“Miss Shi, do you think you have the right to grab seats away from others just because your family is super-rich?” At this moment, a male voice sounded and it attracted everyone’s attention.

Without looking at him, Gu Ning already knew who he was from his voice, so did Leng Shaojia. Gu Ning remained calm, while Leng Shaojia panicked a little.

“Jiang Ruiqin!” Shi Yanyan was surprised to meet Jiang Ruiqin here, and didn’t know what to do now. She gave Leng Shaojia a glance to ask for her opinion in silence.

Although there was an abyss between the Jiang family which was a common rich family, and the Shi family that was a super-rich family, the Jiang family had a close relationship with the Leng family after all. Most importantly, Leng Shaojia liked Jiang Ruiqin, and was unwilling to have conflict with him. However, Jiang Ruiqin disliked Leng Shaojia very much and kept a distance away from her.

Leng Shaojia was in a bad mood today because of Jiang Ruiqin. Just an hour ago, they met Jiang Ruiqin, and Leng Shaojia invited him to dine and watch a film together, but Jiang Ruiqin rejected her.

“Fine. We can leave the table to them, but we must share a table with you.” Leng Shaojia seized the chance to dine with Jiang Ruiqin.

Nevertheless, Jiang Ruiqin ignored Leng Shaojia, and looked to Gu Ning with sincerity. “Gu Ning, would you mind dining with us? I have always wanted to share a meal with you, so maybe today is my lucky day.”

“Jiang Ruiqin!” Leng Shaojia couldn’t believe her eyes. Why did Jiang Ruiqin invite this girl to dine with him? And they even seemed so close? What’s their relationship? Leng Shaojia thought to herself.

“Why not!” Gu Ning said.

Since they encountered each other, Gu Ning wouldn’t turn Jiang Ruiqin down. In addition, Gu Ning noticed that the arrogant woman liked Jiang Ruiqin, but Jiang Ruiqin disliked her. If so, Gu Ning was glad to see the arrogant woman being upset after Jiang Ruiqin invited her.

Jiang Ruiqin then ignored Leng Shaojia and guided Gu Ning to his table.

Leng Shaojia’s face was twisted in anger, and she lost her appetite, walking out at once. Her friends, of course, wouldn’t stay in the restaurant and left with her.

This restaurant was very popular and soon the last vacant table was occupied.

Although Leng Shaojia liked Jiang Ruiqin, she was too arrogant to tell him. In her eyes, the man she liked should feel honored and beg for her love, and she always believed that she was better than men. Even when she invited Jiang Ruiqin to dine together or watch a film together, she was still very arrogant and put it like she was doing him a favor.

Chapter 644: Are You Free Tonight?

Since Jiang Ruiqin ignored her on purpose now, she obviously wouldn’t stay here and left at once. However, she would invite Jiang Ruiqin to hang out with her again after her anger went away. She wasn’t willing to give up, because Jiang Ruiqin aroused her desire of conquest.

A self-centered person with a strong sense of self-esteem always wanted what he or she couldn’t have.

Gu Ning followed Jiang Ruiqin to the table, and greeted Tang Qingyang when she saw him. Afterwards, they introduced themselves to each other.

“Here, please order whatever you want.” Jiang Ruiqin gave the menu to Gu Ning, because he and Tang Qingyang had only ordered several dishes for two people.

“Thanks!” Gu Ning took the menu.

Song Manni and Xia Yichu also ordered their favorite food.

“Gu Ning, what are you up to these days?” Jiang Ruiqin asked Gu Ning pretending to be very casual.

“Dealing with something,” Gu Ning said, but didn’t tell him more details.

Since Gu Ning didn’t want to tell him more details, Jiang Ruiqin didn’t ask further.

“Oh, if you meet those women again in the future, you better stay away from them, especially the one who has competed for vacant seats against you,” Jiang Ruiqin said. Although he knew that Gu Ning was good at kung fu, it couldn’t solve everything. Sometimes, power was the key to any problems.

“Oh, what’s her background,” Gu Ning asked with curiosity.

“The Leng family in the capital,” Jiang Ruiqin said directly.

“The Leng family?” Gu Ning was surprised. The Leng family in the capital was precisely Leng Shaoting’s family. It seemed unavoidable that she would meet the woman again in the future.

Leng Shaoting had told her that he only cared about his grandpa in his family, so she could fight back without hesitation if other members found fault with her.

Seeing Gu Ning being surprised, Jiang Ruiqin thought that she was a little scared, so he comforted her at once. “Don’t worry. I can help you if she causes you any trouble.”

“It’s fine. I can handle it,” Gu Ning said. In fact, she didn’t care about Leng Shaojia at all. If she didn’t have Leng Shaoting’s support, she probably would be afraid of the Leng family’s power and influence, but there was no need for her to be afraid now since Leng Shaoting was her boyfriend.

“Oh, are you free tonight? If you are, why don’t we go have some fun together in a club after dinner?” Jiang Ruiqin asked.

“I’d love to, but I need to deal with something else.” Gu Ning declined.

“Fine!” Jiang Ruiqin didn’t insist, but felt disappointed.

Leng Shaojia, who left in anger didn’t have an appetite at all, so she went to a bar later. She was in a terrible mood now, so she vented her anger by drinking with her friends Shi Yanyan and Qin Beixin.

Leng Shaojia was very arrogant, so she only made friends with those who were from either super-rich or powerful families.

Shi Yanyan was born in a super-rich family in the capital, while Qin Beixin’s father was a senior administration official in the capital. Although their family background wasn’t as good as Leng Shaojia’s, they were all from the high society.

However, only the Leng family and the Shi family had been super-rich and powerful for generations, and many members of those two families held important positions or great influence in either politics or business. In the Qin family, on the other hand, only Qin Beixin’s parents occupied significant jobs in the government. That was the big difference between a single person’s influence and a whole family’s power.

On the way to the bar, Shi Yanyan suddenly thought of a question, so she asked, “Shaojia, I think Jiang Ruiqin treats the girl differently. I’ve never seen him being so careful and gentle to a girl before. Does he like her?”

Hearing that, Leng Shaojia stopped walking for a second, and then realized that Jiang Ruiqin really was different today. She liked Jiang Ruiqin, so she naturally knew a lot about him, and she had also never seen him being so kind and taking the initiative to approach a girl.

“Did he do it on purpose to annoy Shaojia?” Qin Beixin said.

“No matter what, I won’t let her go. If I see her again, I promise that I’ll pay her back!” Leng Shaojia said with strong hatred. She had been embarrassed in public today because of Gu Ning, so she wouldn’t forgive Gu Ning.

When Leng Shaoting finished dinner, Gu Ning was still in the middle of it, so she received his call halfway through eating.

“Where are you now? Have you eaten?” Leng Shaoting asked.

“I’m at the commercial district now, and I’m still eating,” Gu Ning said.

“Do you need me to pick you up?” Leng Shaoting asked.

“Sure,” Gu Ning said, then hung up.

Cai Qinyi had the result of the investigation of Ning Changkai.

The office leader was transferred to another department in another city, but nobody knew the details. Besides, no one knew whether he had betrayed Cai Qinyi either, but Cai Qinyi’s secretary said that they didn’t have any solid proof against Xinghe.

Hearing that, Cai Qinyi was a little relieved.

Leng Shaoting soon arrived at the delicious city, and Gu Ning and the others also finished eating.

“Where are you going now? I can send you there,” Jiang Ruiqin said.

“Thanks, my friend will pick us up,” Gu Ning said.

“Great.” Jiang Ruiqin didn’t say anything further, but felt quite disappointed.

When they walked out together, Leng Shaoting’s car was parked outside. Gu Ning said good-bye to them, and Jiang Ruiqin along with Tang Qingyang saw them getting in the car at the door.

Seeing Gu Ning walking out with Jiang Ruiqin, Leng Shaoting was displeased. Didn’t she say she would reject Jiang Ruiqin’s invitation for a meal? Why did they dine together?

Gu Ning sensed Leng Shaoting’s annoyance once she was in the car. She immediately realized that he was mad because of Jiang Ruiqin. Although it was just a coincidence that she had dined with Jiang Ruiqin, Leng Shaoting didn’t know, so it was understandable that he was mad now.

Gu Ning explained it to Leng Shaoting at once, and Leng Shaoting’s anger faded, but Gu Ning didn’t tell him that the woman was Leng Shaojia.

In the beginning Xia Yichu and Song Manni felt stressed in the car, but then gradually got used to it. Afterwards, Gu Ning introduced them to one another.

It was very dim in the car, so Xia Yichu and Song Manni didn’t see Leng Shaoting’s appearance clearly, otherwise they would be astonished as well as excited.

Chapter 645: There Is No Sign of Anything Happening Yet.

Gu Ning asked for Song Manni’s and Xia Yichu’s addresses, then Leng Shaoting drove them back before they went to his house.

Once Gu Ning was gone, Jiang Ruiqin was very upset, but Tang Qingyang could do nothing about it.

“Let’s go! She’s already been gone for a long while.” Tang Qingyang lightly knocked Jiang Ruiqin’s arm.

Jiang Ruiqin sighed, then turned around. “Let’s go have a drink!” He was in a bad mood now, and he wanted to drink beers.

“Let’s go!” Since his close brother wanted to drink, Tang Qingyang, of course, wouldn’t reject.

Cao Wenxin and Ai Xinyu along with Ai Xinyu’s friends were about to adjourn to a KTV club, but Cao Wenxin always wore an absent look because she was thinking of Xin Bei.

Ai Xinyu had noticed that during the meal, but didn’t ask her because there were so many people around them. Since they were already out now, Ai Xinyu asked Cao Wenxin, “Wenxin, are you alright?”

“Yeah,” Cao Wenxin said.

“Really? I’m not dumb and you’ve been wearing this absent look for a long time!” Ai Xinyu rolled her eyes.

“Fine.” Cao Wenxin knew that she couldn’t hide it from her good friend. “I had a conflict with a woman today. She used an ashtray to hit me, and one of my male friends protected me from being hit, but he was injured on his head, and now he’s still in the hospital.”

“I think I should take care of him because he was injured for me, but today’s your birthday after all, so he told me to come here.”

“What? Why didn’t you tell me? If I had known, I wouldn’t have forced you to come here!” Ai Xinyu was shocked and felt guilty. “Go back to him! I’ll be fine here.”

“But today’s your birthday! I…” Actually, Cao Wenxin also wanted to visit Xin Bei in the hospital, but she thought that it would be unfair for Ai Xinyu. She flew all the way here to attend Ai Xinyu’s birthday party afterall.

“It’s fine. We’ve been good friends for years. I won’t mind.” Ai Xinyu was very considerate. If she found out the truth, but still forbade Cao Wenxin from leaving, it would be very unkind.

“Well, then I’ll go visit him. Xinyu, I’m sorry!” Cao Wenxin hesitated for a while, but still decided to leave.

“It’s no big deal. Just leave. Don’t forget to bring some food for him,” Ai Xinyu said and pushed Cao Wenxin outwards.

After that, Cao Wenxin excused herself and left. She listened to Ai Xinyu and wanted to call Xin Bei to ask him what his favorite food was. However, she realized that they hadn’t exchanged phone numbers with each other, which upset her.

In the end, Cao Wenxin only bought some fruits to visit him.

When she got back to the hospital, Xu Jinchen was also in Xin Bei’s patient room. Xin Bei felt bored after Cao Wenxin left, so he called Xu Jinchen to keep him company.

Xu Jinchen didn’t know what had happened to Xin Bei until Xin Bei called him. He was shocked and came to visit Xin Bei without delay. When he saw Xin Bei, his first reaction was the same as Leng Shaoting’s. “How could you be hit by an ashtray?”

“It was a subconscious action!” Xin Bei said. In fact, he could have pushed Cao Wenxin away, so neither of them would have been hit, but he hadn’t thought further back then.

“Do you like her?” Xu Jinchen asked, although he already knew the answer.

“Yes.” Xin Bei admitted it.

“Well, it seems another member of our team is going to have a girlfriend, but I’m still single.” Xu Jinchen felt very sad all of a sudden. Leng Shaoting, Si Ming and now Xin Bei had all met their girls, but his girl was nowhere to be found.

“There is no sign of anything happening yet!” Xin Bei wore a wry smile. Although he liked Cao Wenxin, it wasn’t easy for them to be together. They still needed more time to get along with each other.

Xu Jinchen’s first love was in college, and he stayed single for a long time ever since, so he couldn’t give any advice for his close brother now, but could only hope that Xin Bei would be happy.

When it was about 8 pm, Cao Wenxin arrived.

Xin Bei thought that Cao Wenxin wouldn’t be back until 10 pm, so he was surprised to see her when it was just 8 pm.

“Hi, Mr. Xu!” Cao Wenxin greeted Xu Jinchen.

“Hi, I came to visit Xin Bei after hearing what happened. Since you’re back, I think I better leave now,” Xu Jinchen said.

“Bye-bye.” Cao Wenxin didn’t think further and walked Xu Jinchen out.

When Xu Jinchen walked out, he gave Xin Bei an encouraging look.

“Why did you come back so early?” Xin Bei asked when Xu Jinchen was gone. It wasn’t because he didn’t want her to be back earlier, but because he thought she needed to celebrate her friend’s birthday that night. Was it because of him? Thinking that, Xin Bei was cheered up.

“Um, I came here after dinner. They went to drink, but I don’t feel like drinking today, so I didn’t go with them. Oh, I wanted to buy some food for you, but I don’t have your number so I didn’t know what to buy,” Cao Wenxin said.

Hearing that, Xin Bei also realized that they hadn’t exchanged phone numbers yet.

“If you don’t mind, we can exchange numbers,” Xin Bei said politely, but he was very anxious.

“Sure!” Cao Wenxin said, and then they exchanged phone numbers.

When Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were back in his house, Leng Shaoting pressed her against the bed at once. However, Gu Ning’s phone rang when he just started kissing her.

Chapter 646: Anything Else?

It was the second time that Leng Shaoting had been interrupted when he was kissing Gu Ning, and he was very unhappy.

“Ha-ha.” Gu Ning snorted with laughter seeing Leng Shaoting’s sad face, but she still answered the call without delay.

The call was from Ning Changkai and he reported on today’s sales figures to Gu Ning. Although the sales in the afternoon was lower than that in the morning, they had made a lot of money today.

It was quite understandable because many of Gu Ning’s friends came to buy the products in the morning, and they were very generous customers. In addition, for the skincare products, except facial masks, it took time for customers to see whether they were effective or suitable, so most of the customers only bought a set each to have a try.

The pharmacy also made dozens of thousands of yuan today. It was quite a good result without any advertising.

Normally, a store of skincare products could make several dozens of thousands of yuan at the most on the opening day, but they had made over three hundred thousand yuan. And a pharmacy could make over ten thousand yuan at best, but they had made over forty thousand yuan.

In addition, both Colaine pharmacy and Kouzi store were direct-sale stores, and Gu Ning could make far more money by wholesale in the future. Gu Ning planned to open more retail stores of Colaine and Kouzi and Ning Changkai would be in charge of it.

Ning Changkai told Gu Ning that the products which would be delivered to City F were already packed. They would be loaded tomorrow morning, and he asked her whether she wanted to check it.

Gu Ning thought that it wasn’t necessary, because she believed that Ning Changkai could handle it well.

After hanging up the call, Leng Shaoting pressed on Gu Ning again, but he was stopped by Gu Ning once more when he started kissing her. “Wait a second.”

It was the third time Leng Shaoting had been interrupted, and he was very disappointed. However, he cared about Gu Ning’s feelings, so he didn’t force her to have sex with him. “What’s wrong?”

“I forgot to book a plane ticket. I have to fly to City B tomorrow because Jade Beauty Jewelry’s branch is about to open the day after tomorrow,” Gu Ning said.

Although Zhou Zhenghong was already dealing with it, she had to go back given that she was the boss.

“I’ll go with you.” Leng Shaoting had to go with her because it was a very important event. He got up from Gu Ning’s body and took out his phone to book plane tickets for them. It was better to book plane tickets as early as they could.

“Wait, I need to ask Wenxin whether she’ll go back with us tomorrow,” Gu Ning said, and called Cao Wenxin.

Gu Ning’s store was going to open, and Cao Wenxin said that she would go attend its opening ceremony, so did Xin Bei. Therefore, Leng Shaoting booked four plane tickets.

The flight would take off at 1:50 pm tomorrow, so they could set off for the airport after lunch.

After booking, Leng Shaoting pressed on Gu Ning once more, but Gu Ning pushed him away again.

She thought that she should give Gao Yi and Qiao Ya a call now to find out how everything was going with them. Gao Yi and Qiao Ya were both efficient, so they already settled everything they needed to do. Gu Ning told them to meet her once they were free.

“Anything else?” Leng Shaoting stared at Gu Ning with a resigned look.

Hearing that, Gu Ning was amused. “Nothing. Let’s begin!”

Once Gu Ning said that, Leng Shaoting directly pressed her against the bed and started to undress her.

At the same time, Cao Wenxin was still chatting with Xin Bei in the hospital.

Neither of them mentioned their feelings towards each other, but chatted casually.

When it was 11 pm, Cao Wenxin had to go back to the hotel, because it wasn’t appropriate for her to stay alone with Xin Bei in a room.

In fact, Xin Bei was already fine after applying the liquid medicine Gu Ning gave him, but the doctor told him to stay in the hospital for a day in case his wound got worse. He would have another CT scan tomorrow morning, and he could leave the hospital if there was nothing wrong with his wound.

“Is it safe for you to go back alone?” Xin Bei asked with concern.

“It’s fine. The hotel will arrange for a car to pick me up,” Cao Wenxin said.

Hearing that, Xin Bei realized that the Huangdeng Hotel was kind of Cao Wenxin’s family business.

Xin Bei didn’t feel stressed facing Cao Wenxin’s unusual family background, because he was a respectable military officer in the army too. In addition to his high rank in the army, he also had a lot of wealth. Although he wasn’t comparable to the Tang family, he wasn’t poorer than the Cao family, so they could be a properly-matched couple.

The rewards of their missions were very high. They might not gain much if they caught general murderers, but they would get rich rewards if they ruined an illegal drug cartel or caught people stealing cultural relics as well as arms traffickers.

Those illegal groups had tons of money to run their illegal business. As long as they were caught, the government would take over half of their properties, and the other half would be divided among the Red Flame.

For example, a head of an illegal drug cartel could have dozens of billion yuan in wealth, and those who fulfilled the task of catching the head could share half of his wealth.

Therefore, each member of the Red Flame was super rich.

Cao Wenxin took a shower when she was back in the hotel. However, she couldn’t fall asleep at all, but kept thinking about what had happened today with Xin Bei.

She was sure that she liked Xin Bei now, but not deeply yet, so she wasn’t sure whether she wanted him to be her boyfriend. In addition, she was curious about his feelings for her.

During this night, Xin Bei barely slept too, because he was also thinking of Cao Wenxin. Although he knew he liked Cao Wenxin, he hesitated to confess his affection for her before he was certain that she was willing to his girlfriend.

Chapter 647: Mind Your Reputation

The prime time of a bar was around 12 am.

Leng Shaojia and her friends actually drank some in the music bar, but they didn’t have much. They knew that they were going to have fun in the second bar, so they stayed clear-headed. And now, they adjourned to a nightclub to start the second round of drinking

Several male friends invited them to have fun here, and those men were all from the high society like them. There were different groups of the younger generation in the high society who disliked each other, and normally one would only make friends with others in the same group as themselves.

They knew the conflicts among different groups very clearly and the older generation had reminded them to be careful too, so they would never socialize with people from the opposite groups.

Even if they maintained a relationship with their enemies, it had to be a bad one.

Since they were friends, they shared many secrets about each other. If one made friends with the younger generation from the opposite groups, once the older generation began to fight against one another, it was unavoidable that his or her secrets would become the ammunition in their enemies’ hands.

The bar was very noisy and full of colorful moving lights. Men and women on the dance floor were crazily swaying their waists and shaking their booties, like tomorrow was the last day of their lives.

Although it was early Spring, it was still cold outside. In the nightclub, however, it was always Summer, and all the women were wearing tight, sensual Summer dresses. The air conditioners in a nightclub were on all the time, otherwise nobody would be willing to have fun here.

Leng Shaojia and her friends also changed their clothes and put on short, tight, sexy dresses with heavy make-up. They looked totally different now. A while ago, they were elegant ladies, but now they were hot women looking for amorous adventures in this nightclub.

Shi Yanyan was the sexist of them, and her dress was so short that her underwear was easily seen once she bent a little. That was exactly what she wanted.

Leng Shaojia was actually more beautiful than Shi Yanyan, but Shi Yanyan had a better figure than her. When Shi Yanyan shook her beautiful wine-red hair with large curls, countless men around were attracted to her.

“Hey, beauties, wanna a drink?” A good-looking man came over and struck up a conversation with them.

“Sorry, we’re busy now! We can have a drink later,” Shi Yanyan said with a sexy smile. She was very kind, so the man wasn’t annoyed at all.

After a while, they walked to the booth their friends had booked. There were three men and a woman who was wearing a skin-tight red minidress with her boobs almost coming out. She was having sex with the man sitting next to her right in front of everyone. It was very common in a nightclub.

Although Leng Shaojia and her friends didn’t have fun in nightclubs often, they weren’t rare visitors either, so they were already used to it.

“Oh, they’re already having fun!” Shi Yanyan joked without any touch of irony.

Hearing that, the man and the woman stopped and looked to Shi Yanyan. The woman moved her hair on her chest away and said airily, “You didn’t just find out so don’t put it like it’s something surprising!”

“Mind your reputation! Why don’t you go get a room and then you can do it anyway you want?” Shi Yanyan said.

Shi Yanyan lived a promiscuous sexual life. To be specific, there was few rich kids who didn’t have many sexual partners, but some of them would try to attract as little attention as possible to their behaviors in case it caused trouble.

Leng Shaojia and Qin Beixin, on the other hand, didn’t have as many sexual partners as Shi Yanyan, so they were able to maintain a good reputation for now.

“Hey, welcome! Come on and have a seat!” A handsome man stood up at once and invited them to sit with him.

“Hello, beauties, been a while!” A tall, handsome blond man with beautiful features greeted them.

“Smith, when did you come here?”

Seeing the man, both Shi Yanyan and Qin Beixin were excited, but Leng Shaojia felt a little uneasy with a touch of embarrassment flashing by her face.

Smith looked at them, but his attention was all on Leng Shaojia with his eyes blinking in love. “I just arrived today. Du invited you to have fun together, so I didn’t tell you in order to surprise you!” Du was the handsome man who invited them to sit with him.

In fact, Smith was afraid that Leng Shaojia wouldn’t come, so he told Du to keep it a secret. Why would he be afraid of that? There was a secret between them, so Leng Shaojia felt embarrassed and uneasy whenever she saw him.

“It is a big surprise!” Shi Yanyan and Qin Beixin laughed.

Afterwards, Du poured drinks for them. They clinked glasses and downed it as the start of the evening.

Leng Shaojia and her friends were a little drunk after drinking so much, but they were still conscious. At this moment, Smith moved to sit beside Leng Shaojia. Under the effect of the alcohol, Leng Shaojia didn’t feel uneasy. Smith approached Leng Shaojia’s ear and said in a low voice, “Will you leave with me tonight?”

His warm breath around Leng Shaojia’s ear made her feel aroused, and a touch of light flashed in her eyes, but she still rejected, “I don’t think it’s a good idea.”

Smith caught the touch of light in Leng Shaojia’s eyes. He smiled and said in his husky voice, “You know you don’t need to restrict yourself. You should free yourself instead. You know we’ve had a lot of fun together before. Don’t worry. Nobody will know and I won’t force you.”

Smith’s words shook Leng Shaojia’s belief. He was indeed very good in bed, and she was kind of addicted to it, but she was reluctant to maintain a sexual relationship with him. If Jiang Ruiqin found out, he would probably never accept her.

Although Smith was tall, strong and handsome, Leng Shaojia didn’t have much affection for him. Besides, he had a divorce and it was impossible for her to date him, because she thought that it was very shameful.

They had slept with each other once before because she had been drunk and felt lonely that day.

Chapter 648: Open Wider

Seeing that Leng Shaojia’s belief was shaken, Smith was very proud of himself. “I heard that you’re still single. Since you don’t have a boyfriend, you don’t need to worry about it at all. It has nothing to do with betrayal.”

Leng Shaojia thought that it made sense and she also wanted to get revenge on Jiang Ruiqin. In addition, she was seduced too, so she agreed, “Sure!”

Smith was happy hearing Leng Shaojia’s answer. In fact, although Smith liked Leng Shaojia, he was only interested in having sex with her, and had no intention to be in a serious relationship with her. His ex-wife left him precisely because he had cheated on her.

In Smith’s eyes, he had to live his life while he was still young, because he wouldn’t have enough energy to play around again once he was old. Moreover, he was rich, and he could afford it. He also understood that Leng Shaojia didn’t like him, but instead liked his skills in bed, which was acceptable for him, because there was no need for him to take responsibility for it.

Shi Yanyan soon left with a handsome young man. Qin Beixin was totally drunk and was sent back by Du.

In the end, only Leng Shaojia and Smith were left there.

“Have more drinks with me! I haven’t had enough.” Leng Shaojia wasn’t in a good mood, so she wanted to relieve her pain by drinking

“Why not, but I think you better not drink too much, or you won’t feel the excitement later,” Smith said. He didn’t want to have sex with a drunk woman, he wanted a sensual woman. Saying that, he covered her leg with his palm, then moved his palm upwards to the V of her legs.

Leng Shaojia refused, but Smith said at once, “Don’t you think it’s very exciting? Nobody will notice.”

Leng Shaojia stopped for a second, and started feeling excited. They sat in the deepest corner with tassels separating them from the others. The light was dim, and there was a table in front of them, so it was impossible that anyone would notice them. Therefore, Leng Shaojia didn’t stop him anymore. However, her legs were tightly closed. “Open your legs wider, so I can move in,” Smith said.

After a while of flirting and touching, both of them felt aroused, but it wasn’t the right place to have sex here, so they stayed calm and drank

“Look, they’re being really bold.” Smith gave a glance at the next table, and Leng Shaojia looked over.

A woman lowered her head between a man’s legs. Although she couldn’t see it clearly, she understood what they were doing at first glance. It seemed the man was enjoying it, and there were other people around them joking loudly.

From their talk, Leng Shaojia got to know that they were playing truth or dare, and the woman lost a round.

It was too much in Leng Shaojia’s eyes; she couldn’t do that.

After a short time, Leng Shaojia left along with Smith. Smith had already booked a room in a nearby hotel, so they soon arrived. With a loud sound, Smith knocked the door open and threw Leng Shaojia onto the bed. It wasn’t painful, because the bed was super soft.

Without hesitation, Smith pressed her body against the bed.

The next day, Jiang Ruiqin got up to run in the morning as usual, but Gu Ning was still absent.

It had been three days. Was she avoiding him? He had dined with Gu Ning yesterday, but it was just a coincidence. Running in the morning, however, was different because Gu Ning had told him that it was her regular exercise, and he had told her the same thing.

Nevertheless, Gu Ning had been absent for three days. Maybe she was very busy, but it was also possible that she stopped running to avoid meeting him.

Cao Wenxin called Xin Bei once she got up, and asked him what he wanted to eat. It was still morning, so Xin Bei wanted to have some congee.

Cao Wenxin then brought congee to visit him in the hospital before Xin Bei went to do the CT scan. When it was 10 am, the results were out and Xin Bei was fine, so he could leave the hospital now.

Cao Wenxin and Xin Bei went to the parking lot together. Not far away, Yu Wenkang was carrying a lunchbox that contained some dishes prepared by Yu Wenjing for Xin Bei.

Yu Wenkang felt a little embarrassed seeing Xin Bei, and Xin Bei just nodded to him politely before he got in the car.

Cao Wenxin drove a Maserati which was worth over a million yuan. It was an exclusive car for the senior management of the Tanghuang Group. Therefore, when Yu Wenkang saw the logo of the car, he was shocked.

If this woman in front of his eyes was able to drive such a luxurious car, she must have been born in a super-rich family. He now really hoped that Yu Wenjing would listen to him and stopped harassing this woman.

When they arrived at the hotel, Cao Wenxin called Gu Ning. Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting had just left, so she told Cao Wenxin to order first.

Not long after they left the house area, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting noticed that someone was stalking them.

Gu Ning was very displeased, because she had been stalked many times these days, but she didn’t know whether she or Leng Shaoting was the target this time.

She turned around and used her Jade Eyes. There were two men in the car behind them, and both of them had guns, which made Gu Ning think of bounty hunters.

Gu Ning was worried, but she couldn’t tell Leng Shaoting right away, in case that would arouse his suspicion.

“I think we better drive to a remote place and deal with them first,” Gu Ning said. If they were just normal stalkers, they would let them go, but it was obvious that those two men were killers.

Leng Shaoting had the same idea, so he drove the car towards a remote place.

The two men in the car behind them had no idea that they were already exposed, and even felt that it was a great chance for them to kill them at a remote place.

Although Gu Ning couldn’t tell Leng Shaoting directly that they had guns, she could suggest it. “I wonder whether they aim to hurt me or you, but either way, we must be careful. They probably have knives or guns.”

Chapter 649: No Right to Sentence

“You’re right.” Leng Shaoting agreed.

When Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning drove to a road with little traffic, Leng Shaoting stopped the car all of a sudden. They pretended that the engine was acting up, and got out of the car to check it.

Seeing that, the two men stopped behind them and also left their car. “Hey, may I help?” one of them asked. They tried to approach them.

“Thanks!” Leng Shaoting said, and the two men walked towards them.

When they walked near, they suddenly attacked Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting. However, both Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were already prepared, so they reacted within a second.

The two men were stunned because they didn’t expect that they would be so quick, but they kept attacking them.

People who drove by this road all stopped and filmed the fight. Nevertheless, none of them dared to come closer, so their faces weren’t clear in the video.

Some of them also immediately called the police.

After a while, the killers didn’t gain any advantage, but Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning also failed to get control of them. Gu Ning was sure now that they must be bounty hunters.

To the killers’ astonishment, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning were better than them in a fight. Therefore, they took out guns.

Seeing that, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning dashed forward to stop them. The killers weren’t weak either, but failed to aim at them accurately.

Once they showed the guns, most onlookers drove away, and only a few stayed to watch, but they all stayed a far distance away.

At short notice, Gu Ning drew a dagger and cut one of the killer’s wrists with great force. The gun fell from his hand at once, and Gu Ning kicked it away.

The killer was greatly surprised, because he didn’t see when and where Gu Ning pulled out the dagger.

This killer without his gun was barely a match for Gu Ning and it was super easy for Gu Ning to beat him down now.

As for Leng Shaoting, he was even better and more experienced than Gu Ning in a fight. He dislocated the other killer’s arm without hesitation and grabbed the gun away, then kicked the killer on the knee so the killer knelt on the ground and couldn’t resist at all.

At the same time, Gu Ning quickly got control of the killer fighting against her.

The scene shocked everyone around. They caught the two killers with guns within just a few minutes!

Although Leng Shaoting was better than Gu Ning, people were still more impressed by Gu Ning because she was a slim young girl. In their eyes, girls were always the weak, but what Gu Ning did totally changed their opinions.

“Tell us. Who sent you here?” Gu Ning asked coldly.

The two killers remained silent.

“Well.” Gu Ning wore a cold face, then heavily stepped on a killer’s ankle. With a crisp sound, it was broken and the killer’s face was twisted in great pain. “Tell us,” Gu Ning said again.

However, they still remained quiet.

“If you refuse to tell us, you could die,” Leng Shaoting said staring straight at them.

Even so, the two killers still seemed tough. “Our nationality is Country Y, and your country has no right to sentence us.”

It was the truth. Without an extradition agreement, another country had no right to sentence them.

Besides, the two killers didn’t believe that Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting would dare to kill them, because it would turn into a serious international problem. As long as they could flee back to Country Y, they would be safe.

“Oh, really?” Leng Shaoting didn’t seem worried at all. He took out his military officer card with a calm face. “Don’t you know that you can be sentenced to death if you try to assassinate a military officer?”

Seeing that, the two killers were stunned again.

“Tell us who sent you here. I can punish you lightly and it won’t become an international case. As for what will happen to you in the future, it totally depends on yourself,” Leng Shaoting said.

It was an attempted murder, so they wouldn’t be sentenced death according to the law. Of course, if Leng Shaoting wanted them to die, it was just a matter of a few words, but he would fulfill his promise once he made it.

The two killers were now scared of Leng Shaoting’s real identity. However, if they told him, they would be killed by their client because they broke the rules. Besides, they weren’t sure whether Leng Shaoting would keep his promise. Even so, it was possible that they could stay alive if they told him, and they could die right away if they refused to do so.

After struggling, they decided to tell him. Although they were killers, they were afraid of death too.

“It’s Aimee Hill from the Hill family,” the man who was under Leng Shaoting’s control said.

Hearing that, Gu Ning frowned, but was not very surprised, because she knew that Aimee wouldn’t give up.

“Do you know the person?” In the beginning, Leng Shaoting thought that their target was him, but they told him a very strange name. He had heard of the Hill family, but he had never been in touch with it, let alone had conflicts or a grudge against it.

Seeing Gu Ning’s reaction, he realized that Gu Ning was their target.

“We had conflict,” Gu Ning said, but didn’t tell him details.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was mad.

Chapter 650: Pay For What You Have Done

If their target was him, he wouldn’t have many feelings, but he wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt Gu Ning. No matter who dared to hurt Gu Ning, he would make him or her pay for it.

“Are you sure?” Gu Ning star the killer’s eyes.

“I’m very sure,” he said without any panic.

In that case, Gu Ning believed it for now.

“What did she want you to do to me?” Gu Ning asked, although she already had the answer. It wasn’t the first time that she had been attacked by another woman after all. She was right.

“She wanted us to ruin your face and rape you, so that you’d live the rest of your life in pain,” the killer said.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was in a rage. He couldn’t believe that the woman would be so malicious.

Gu Ning gave Leng Shaoting a glance, and his heart ached for her.

“Do you have her phone number?” Gu Ning asked the killer again.

“Yes,” the killer said.

“Give me your phone,” Gu Ning said.

He didn’t hesitate and gave his phone to Gu Ning. Gu Ning made a call with it at once.

In the Hill family’s manor in Country Y.

Aimee was playing games alone in her room when she received the call, and she got excited once she saw the caller’s name. She thought that it must have been successful, so she answered the call in a hurry.

Before Gu Ning could say a word, Aimee opened her mouth in excitement. “Avery, how is it?”

Although it was a question, Aimee believed that it must have been a success. She had sent two professional killers.

“Sorry to disappoint you, Miss Hill,” Gu Ning said with pride and laziness. She didn’t sound annoyed at all.

“You…” Aimee recognized Gu Ning’s voice, and her hand shook a little in fear.

How is it possible? How can she use Avery’s phone to call me?

“Miss Hill, I bet that Situ Ye already told you not to cause me any trouble, but it seems that you didn’t listen to him. Well, I guess you can only pay for you’ve done now,” Gu Ning said, then hung up on her.

When Leng Shaoting heard Situ Ye’s name, he was displeased. He now realized that it was because of Situ Ye that Miss Hill schemed to ruin Gu Ning.

“What do you want to do? I can help you,” Leng Shaoting said. He knew that Gu Ning wouldn’t let Miss Hill get away with it.

“I’ll tell you once I made up my mind,” Gu Ning said. She would, of course, get revenge on Aimee, but the time wasn’t right, because she was busy dealing with her own business.

“Sure,” Leng Shaoting said. He didn’t ask further about Situ Ye. Although he was very curious, he was more afraid that Gu Ning would be annoyed.

Since her scheme was exposed, Aimee was terrified. If Situ Ye found out what she had done, it would be impossible for her to marry him. Besides, she was worried that Situ Ye would tell her family to please Gu Ning, and her family would punish, blame or even abandon her.

Aimee, however, wasn’t afraid of Gu Ning, because she still believed that Gu Ning wasn’t able to hurt her, because she was born in the Hill family after all. However, what she didn’t know was that Gu Ning was the heiress of the top family in City B and was also the future grand daughter-in-law of the top family in the capital. Gu Ning’s background was far more powerful than the Hill family.

The Hill family was a super-rich family in Country Y, but it wasn’t among the top level families. On the contrary, both the Tang family and the Leng family were dominant families. In addition, Gu Ning had no intention to fight against the Hill family, and she would only get revenge on Aimee. However, if the Hill family wanted to be involved, Gu Ning wouldn’t mind competing against it. She would never grin and bear it.

Before long, the police arrived, and arrested the two killers. Because of Leng Shaoting’s identity, there was no need for them to make oral confessions, but they still gave the police an account of what had happened.

When Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting got back in the car and were about to leave for the hotel, Cao Wenxin called Gu Ning and asked her when she would arrive. Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting had spent a lot of time on the two killers, so Cao Wenxin and Xin Bei had been waiting for them for a long time.

On their way, Gu Ning asked Leng Shaoting, “Why did you want to establish a security company?”

“Because many retired soldiers couldn’t find a good job, I founded a security company and aimed to hire retired soldiers,” Leng Shaoting said.

“I want to start a security company too, because I need my own institution of violence. Please introduce some retired soldiers who want to work in this industry to me,” Gu Ning said.

Gu Ning now thought that only violence could protect her from being attacked by others.

“No problem,” Leng Shaoting said.

Since Gu Ning wanted her own institution of violence, he wouldn’t interfere in her decisions. Gu Ning was always an independent and strong girl, so she wouldn’t be willing to rely on others, including him.

Once some people uploaded the video to the Internet, it caused a sensation, but nobody knew who those killers were.

“Oh, is it Goddess Gu again!?”

“I think it is her!”

“Goddess Gu is so amazing. She can beat an armed man down!”

“Come on, the girl can be another person except her. There are other women who are good at fighting in this world after all.”

“I believe that the girl in the video is Goddess Gu!”

“You’re sick.”

“You’re crazy!”

“Am I the only person who focused on the reason why the two killers attacked Goddess Gu?”

“They must have been hired by someone who’s jealous of Goddess Gu!”

“Jesus! Who would kill a person out of jealousy? It’s insane. I think she must have messed with someone she shouldn’t have annoyed.”

“I don’t believe that Goddess Gu would do that.”

“Do you have any proof?”

“Please, there is another man in the video too. Couldn’t the man be the target and Goddess Gu is the helper?”

“I agree!”
