Chapter 451 Medicine, Medicine Again
When Gu Ning and her friends went back to their private room and told others what they had done, the men were greatly surprised.
What? Gu Ning won a hundred million yuan by playing just one round on a slot machine? She is so lucky!
Leng Shaoting looked at Gu Ning with a proud smile on his lips.
"Gu Ning, you're so awesome!" Xu Jinchen said.
"How did you manage to do that?" Chen Meng asked.
"I guess I was just lucky," Gu Ning said, because she couldn't tell them that she had Jade Eyes. They actually believed that she was lucky because people who played slot machines relied on luck to win money, but her luck was incredibly good!
"Ningning is also generous! She gives Wenxin and me thirty million yuan each!" Xu Qinyin said.
Other than Leng Shaoting, the rest were all shocked by Gu Ning's generosity again.
"Well, I didn't spare much effort on the money, so I shared with them," Gu Ning said airily.
"Why didn't you take me there too?" Xu Jinchen complained.
"And me!" Si Ming echoed.
"Do you lack money?" Leng Shaoming asked suddenly. Xu Jinchen and Si Ming were struck dumb for a second, and instantly responded. "No-no, we're just kidding. Just kidding."
"Of course not!"
They of course wouldn't admit to that, because they would be assigned tasks if they did. Although they had their own tasks, they could also take assignments on the international reward list and work like killers, but their aims were different. Killers would take assignments as long as they were paid, and didn't care who the person that they were going to kill was. They however, only caught criminals, and their reward was lower than the killers' was.
After that, they continued to chat while drinking
Cao Wenxin and Xu Qinyin went to play cue sports later.
"Ah!" Suddenly, an agonized shout attracted everyone in the room's attention. They looked over and saw Xin Bei covering his waist with his hand while glaring at Cao Wenxin. Everybody immediately realized what was going on.
Facing Xin Bei's glare, Cao Wenxin shrugged her shoulders. "It wasn't my fault. You stood behind me."
"You…" Xin Bei was furious. Cao Wenxin just hit him with her cue stick but she refused to apologize and played innocent! Although Xin Bei was mad, he was unwilling to argue with her anymore. Therefore, he walked away.
They didn't stay there for too long, and separated when it was 11 pm.
While they were walking out, Xin Bei suddenly stopped, and Cao Wenxin who walked behind him directly knocked into his back and her handbag fell on the ground. Cao Wenxin was mad at once. "Why did you do that?"
"It wasn't my fault. You walked behind me yourself. And it was you who knocked into my back. You don't apologize and even blame me for it? You're insane!" Xin Bei said then ignored her walking forward in a good mood. Obviously, Xin Bei did it on purpose.
"You…" Cao Wenxin was in a rage, but could do nothing
The rest of the people around them shook their heads, and didn't know what to say. The two of them had had so many conflicts just within a day.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting drove Cao Wenxin to the hotel before they went back to their house. When Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were alone together, Gu Ning teased, "I noticed that you were very happy when Wenxin called you brother-in-law."
"She's your older sister, and her opinion matters!" Leng Shaoting said seriously.
Gu Ning smiled, but didn't say anything. Indeed, it was a good thing to win the family's approval.
OS
Leng Shaoting had told her that he only cared about his grandpa, so Gu Ning highly valued Master Leng's opinions towards her as well.
What Gu Ning didn't know yet was that Master Leng already knew about her existence, and was very satisfied. Of course, before Master Leng met Gu Ning in person, he thought highly of her just because of Leng Shaoting and impressive stories about her.
"Oh, I went to the Kirin Gang's clubhouse when I was in City B. I accidentally won a hundred million yuan there and the head of the Kirin Gang, Qi Tianlin, caused me some trouble," Gu Ning said.
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was worried. "Did anything bad happen?" He had, of course, heard of Qi Tianlin. And knew that he was cruel, cunning and cold-blooded.
"Nope. He asked to have a round of gambling with me. I won in the end, and he lost three billion yuan. I gave Wenxin and Jiakai five hundred million yuan each," Gu Ning said.
"He would yield that easily?" Leng Shaoting frowned with doubt.
"Um…" It seemed Gu Ning couldn't omit what had happened in the middle. "Well, he refused to do so in the beginning, but I injured two of his men and cured them later. He wanted my medicine, so we made an agreement. Don't worry. He won't cause me trouble anymore."
Medicine… medicine again.
However, Leng Shaoting only cared whether Qi Tianlin would try to get revenge on Gu Ning. "Stay away from Qi Tianlin. He's even more dangerous than Situ Ye."
"Ha, do you mean I can keep in touch with Situ Ye?" Gu Ning squinted her eyes. She said it on purpose to see Leng Shaoting's reaction. Unexpectedly, Leng Shaoting slammed on the brakes and stopped the car at the roadside all of a sudden.
"What…" Gu Ning was scared, but her mouth was covered before she could say another word. Leng Shaoting kissed and caught her lips tightly like he was punishing her. He didn't let her go until several minutes had passed.
Seeing Gu Ning's slightly swollen lips, Leng Shaoting felt a little bad, but didn't apologize. Instead, he announced in a domineering tone, "Stay away from Situ Ye too! You have me, and I can handle everything for you!"
Gu Ning was amused. She was just joking with him, but he reacted so strongly. It seemed like she couldn't tease him because he easily got jealous of other men.
"Alright, drive ahead now!" Gu Ning said.
Hearing Gu Ning's affirmative answer, Leng Shaoting was satisfied.
"Oh, I'll prepare some pills for you later and you can carry them with you. No matter if you're injured or sick, you can take them." Although Leng Shaoting was an extremely outstanding military officer, he could be hurt too, and his tasks were always full of danger, so it was necessary for him to carry some medicines with him. "You can also send some to grandpa. They're good for his body," Gu Ning said.
Chapter 452 Take A Bath Together
"Sure." Leng Shaoting didn't reject because he knew that Gu Ning did it for his own good. Although he didn't doubt the effects of her medicine, he was curious about its source. "Where do you get so much medicine?"
"My master gave it to me. She gave me a lot, but I don't know where she got the pills. During my training in the past, I was always injured, so my master told me to take the pills and I recovered quickly every time," Gu Ning lied. "I think that my master might have been a highly skilled doctor too."
Although it sounded strange, Leng Shaoting accepted Gu Ning's explanation.
"What are you going to do tomorrow?" Leng Shaoting asked.
"I'll go to Xiangyun Antique-store tomorrow," Gu Ning said.
"I'll go with you," Leng Shaoting said.
Gu Ning looked to him and blinked. "Are you free tomorrow?"
"Yes." Leng Shaoting had already finished what he had to do in order to keep Gu Ning company when she was in the capital.
"Let's visit my siheyuan[1] first tomorrow morning," Leng Shaoting said.
"Great!" Gu Ning was very interested in this historical type of residence. Most importantly, it was Leng Shaoting's place.
When they were back at the house, Leng Shaoting helped Gu Ning fill the bathtub with water, and Gu Ning went to take a bath. However, when she had just undressed herself, Leng Shaoting suddenly came into the bathroom without any clothing on. Gu Ning was astonished, then flushed, and didn't dare to look straight at him. She immediately wrapped herself with a bath towel. "What-what are you doing here?"
"Let's have a bath together!" Leng Shaoting said. He didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"No! Get out now," Gu Ning said.
Seeing Gu Ning flushing, Leng Shaoting laughed. "Don't you think that it's too late to be shy now?" Saying that, he walked over to her and grabbed her bath towel.
"You…" Gu Ning was a little mad, but didn't know what to say.
He didn't allow her to say another word but pulled her into his arms. Their naked bodies rubbed against each other with great passion. Leng Shaoting kissed Gu Ning wildly while his hands moved over her smooth body. Gu Ning enjoyed his touch a lot. She completely gave up and let him do whatever he wanted.
When dawn broke the next day, Leng Shaoting opened his eyes. Seeing his girl sleeping quietly in his arms, he felt deeply in love. It was so nice to have her by his side. Leng Shaoting had thought that he might die alone. However, ever since he had met Gu Ning, his heart had skipped a beat and now he was deeply in love with her.
After staring at Gu Ning for a while, Leng Shaoting reluctantly left the bed. He was going to prepare breakfast for Gu Ning.
While he was moving Gu Ning back to the bed, Gu Ning woke up. "Shaoting," she called him when she was still half awake.
"Morning, baby. Did I wake you up?" Leng Shaoting put her arm which was exposed to the air into the quilt, then lowered his voice. "It's still early. You can sleep for a while longer."
Gu Ning answered softly then went back to sound sleep.
With Leng Shaoting by her side, she felt so safe that she easily fell into a sound sleep. In addition, she was really exhausted after what they had done last night.
Leng Shaoting wore a gentle and loving smile when he saw Gu Ning falling asleep again then walked out. After he prepared breakfast, he walked back to the room.
At this time, Gu Ning was completely awake.
"Breakfast is ready!" Leng Shaoting said.
"Thanks!" Gu Ning said and sat up. When she saw that she was still naked with many hickeys, her face turned pure red and she immediately pulled the quilt up to cover herself. "Get out!"
Leng Shaoting laughed happily before he walked out. "Oh, your clothes are in the closet."
Gu Ning didn't leave the bed until Leng Shaoting was gone. She opened the closet, and saw a row of new clothing, which was all hers. However, when she noticed female underwear, she flushed again. Did he buy all of this? Or did he ask someone else to buy them? Didn't he feel awkward?
Gu Ning was completely shocked when she found out that the underwear fit her really well.
It took her a long time to put the clothing on and leave the bedroom.
Leng Shaoting was quite satisfied when he saw that Gu Ning was wearing the clothes that he had prepared for her. Gu Ning, on the other hand, didn't give him a glance at all, but sat at the table and directly ate breakfast.
Leng Shaoting understood that she was shy but he deliberately brought it up. "Does it fit?"
Gu Ning answered lightly, then remained quiet. Leng Shaoting also stopped teasing her.
After breakfast, Gu Ning called Cao Wenxin and invited her to hang out with them.
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was displeased. It wasn't easy for them to spend some time alone, but Gu Ning called her friend to join them. Nonetheless, it wouldn't be appropriate if Gu Ning left Cao Wenxin alone in the hotel either, so Leng Shaoting didn't oppose it. Luckily, Cao Wenxin already had an appointment with her friend, so she wouldn't hang out with them in the morning, but she would meet them for dinner.
Around 9 am, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting set off.
Leng Shaoting's siheyuan wasn't far from the Beihai Park and was located in the downtown. It had the best location and view in the downtown. There was a large grassland at the periphery of the siheyuan.
Pushing the front door open, there was a big yard with beautiful peach trees lined up along two sides. It was winter, so the trees weren't in bloom, but it would be breathtaking in spring.
[1] A siheyuan is a historical type of residence that was commonly found throughout China. Throughout Chinese history, the siheyuan composition was the basic pattern used for residences, palaces, temples, monasteries, family businesses, and government offices. It is also referred to as a Chinese quadrangle.
Chapter 453 I'll Live Wherever You Live
At the left side of the yard, there was an artificial rockery with a beautiful lotus pond under it. It was winter, so there were no lotus blossoms but a school of carp was swimming around in it. Beside the lotus pond, there was a small gazebo with a rock table and four rock stools in it. When the weather turned warmer, they could relax and unwind here. On both sides of the yard, there were passages in a historical style.
Gu Ning immediately fell in love with the style.
This was just the front yard, and there was also a backyard.
They kept moving ahead, walking through the front hall to the back yard. Gu Ning's eyes lit up again when she saw the view. The back yard was so exquisite that Gu Ning was really in love with this place.
"Do you like it?" Although Leng Shaoting already knew the answer from Gu Ning's face, he still wanted to hear the answer from her mouth.
"Of course I do!" Gu Ning smiled with happiness.
Leng Shaoting hugged Gu Ning and said. "This place is near the Capital University. When you study we can live here."
Gu Ning was struck dumb for a second and rejected. "No, I'm going to buy my own house."
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was upset. "No, you're going to live here with me."
"No."
"I don't care. I'll live wherever you live." Leng Shaoting didn't want to argue with Gu Ning. All he wanted was to live with her. Gu Ning was amused by his childlike response, but she would make the decision when it came.
Although Leng Shaoting never stayed in this siheyuan everything that was needed was in it, and it was cleaned regularly, so they could stay here whenever they wanted.
"Ningning, do you want to rest in the room, or go grocery shopping with me?" Leng Shaoting asked.
"I'll go with you," Gu Ning said without hesitation.
"Great." Leng Shaoting then held Gu Ning's hand and drove to the supermarket. When they entered the supermarket, people around them were all stunned by their outstanding appearance. Some women even stared at Leng Shaoting and directly ignored their own male partners. However, Leng Shaoting didn't pay any attention to them, but instead asked Gu Ning, "What do you want to have?"
"Let's have a look around first!" Gu Ning said. She actually had no idea what food to buy, because she wasn't very interested in cooking.
Leng Shaoting pushed the cart while Gu Ning was looking for what she wanted. Gu Ning didn't choose a lot of food, because there were only two of them.
After grocery shopping, Leng Shaoting told Gu Ning to rest and that he would cook.
At this time, Gu Ning received Gu Man's call.
"Ningning! The Lantern Festival is three days away. When are you coming home?" Gu Man asked. Her daughter was busy every day in another city. She was worried, but could do nothing about it.
"I'm busy tomorrow, but I'll be back the day after tomorrow," Gu Ning said.
"You're always busy, but I can't help you with that. You must take good care of yourself. I don't care how much money you can make, your health matters the most, alright?" Gu Man said.
"I understand. Mom, you also need to take good care of yourself," Gu Ning said. "Oh, did the people from the Gu Family cause you trouble these past days?"
Hearing that, Gu Man was quiet for a few seconds before she said, "Gu Qinxiang called me once. His company can barely stay afloat now, so he wanted to borrow some money, but I rejected him."
Although Gu Qinxiang was Gu Man's older brother, what he had done had completely broken her heart, so she would never forget the past and help him. Gu Man lived an affluent life now, so they wanted to ride on their coattails. If Gu Man was as poor as in the past, they would never remember that Gu Man was their family.
From what Gu Man knew about Gu Qinxiang, she understood that they wouldn't respect her even though she was rich now. Instead, they would do their best to grab her wealth away or destroy her life.
"Well done! Just ignore them." Gu Ning supported Gu Man. After chatting with Gu Man for a few minutes, Gu Ning hung up the phone.
Within an hour and a half, five dishes were placed on the table. Leng Shaoting then called Gu Ning to dine together.
Cao Wenxin and Ai Xinyu had an appointment today. And Ai Xinyu came with another female friend, Su Tongnuo.
Su Tongnuo was very pretty and elegant. She wasn't a famous actress, but her acting skills were quite good. However, she didn't get many chances because she refused to accept the unspoken rules in the entertainment industry. And ever since she had annoyed a big boss, she had been directly shut out of the industry.
Su Tongnuo's major was graphic design in her college, and she had entered the entertainment industry by coincidence. Since the company she worked for was unwilling to give her any chances now, she relied on Ai Xinyu who helped her get some jobs concerning graphic design to make a living.
Ai Xinyu's family was relatively rich with a good amount of wealth, but didn't have any power, so her parents weren't able to help her get rid of the company.
When the three of them had just walked into a restaurant, they noticed a robber. Without delay, Cao Wenxin ran to catch him. Although the robber ran fast, Cao Wenxin ran faster. Within seconds, Cao Wenxin successfully caught the robber and got the handbag back. The middle-aged woman who had been robbed thanked Cao Wenxin repeatedly. And since the handbag was back, the middle-aged woman didn't bother to call the police.
Coincidentally, Xu Jinchen and Xin Bei who were sitting by the window saw the scene. At that moment, Xin Bei changed his bad impression of Cao Wenxin.
"It's surprising that Cao Wenxin is good at fighting!" Xu Jinchen was greatly surprised. "And she's so brave."
"She is, but also too impulsive. Sometimes, she shouldn't dash out and get involved," Xin Bei said.
Xu Jinchen smiled, but didn't say anything.
"They're walking upstairs. Why don't we invite them to dine together?" Xu Jinchen said.
"Whatever," Xin Bei said in an unfriendly tone.
"I guess you really dislike her. It was just a misunderstanding, so why can't you let it go?" Xu Jinchen didn't understand why Xin Bei suddenly became so mean. Besides, Xin Bei had been talking and laughing with him just then. However, once Cao Wenxin appeared, Xin Bei looked so cold and serious. "Fine, if you don't want to see her, I won't invite them. Let's just pretend that we don't see them when they come over later."
Xin Bei frowned a little. He moved his lips, but didn't say anything.
Chapter 454 Antiques from the Qing Dynasty
This restaurant only had a dining hall, so it was hard to pretend that they didn't see Cao Wenxin and her friend, unless the two girls walked to the opposite side. However, a waiter guided Cao Wenxin and her friend walking right in their direction. What was worse, Cao Wenxin met Xu Jinchen's eyes the next second, and it would be rude if Xu Jinchen still said nothing.
"Oh, hi, Miss Cao! What a coincidence! Would you mind dining with us?" Xu Jinchen said politely.
Cao Wenxin gave Xin Bei a glance, and rejected. "Thanks, Mr. Xu, but we already booked a table."
She directly ignored Xin Bei. After that, Cao Wenxin followed the waiter, walking to a table which was in front of Xu Jinchen's.
When Ai Xinyu saw Xin Bei, she was quite surprised. "Wenxin, how small this world is! You know the terrible man's friend?" Ai Xinyu said to Cao Wenxin.
Although Ai Xinyu kept her voice low, Xin Bei and Xu Jinchen still heard it. Xin Bei was displeased at once, but Xu Jinchen laughed quietly.
Cao Wenxin felt a little embarrassed and explained. "Actually, it was just a misunderstanding. He isn't a terrible man. The woman was his girlfriend and she dumped him because he had nothing before. And now that he's successful, the woman came back to him. They're all my brother-in-law's good friends, and we dined together last night!" She disliked Xin Bei, but she wouldn't damage his reputation.
"What?" Ai Xinyu was surprised. "Did you get along last night?"
"Well, we argued for a while," Cao Wenxin said.
"Wenxin, I told you that you're too impulsive sometimes, and now you hurt an innocent man," Ai Xinyu said.
"It wasn't my fault! You witnessed what happened yesterday too, and it was so easy for others to misunderstand it.��� Although Cao Wenxin admitted that she had mistaken Xin Bei, she didn't think it was all her fault.
Xu Jinchen and Xin Bei finished their meal earlier. Before they left, Xu Jinchen gently said good-bye to Cao Wenxin, and his polite attitude left a great impression on the two girls.
"I think that this man is handsome and polite. If he's single, why don't you try getting to know him better?" Ai Xinyu said to Cao Wenxin.
Cao Wenxin thought for a while. Xu Jinchen was indeed an outstanding man no matter from what perspective, but she had no feelings towards him yet. Therefore, she decided to be patient.
When Cao Wenxin and her friend finished their meal and went to pay the bill, the waiter told them that Xu Jinchen had already paid for them. They were amazed.
"Wow! He's not only handsome and gentle but also very generous!" Ai Xinyu complimented.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went to have a walk in the area around the siheyuan after their meal. Soon they came to Beihai Park.
"Do you want to take a boat on the river?" Leng Shaoting asked.
"Sure!" Gu Ning said excitedly.
Afterwards, they rented a small boat and other than Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, there was only a boatman on the boat. They appreciated the view along the river, while the boat moved ahead slowly.
Gu Ning sat next to the boat's edge. So when she noticed a goldfish surfacing near the boat and it seemed like it was dying, she held it in her hand and put some power into it. Before long, the goldfish was alive again.
Seeing that, Leng Shaoting was surprised, but didn't say anything.
Gu Ning joked, "It's a goldfish and we can't eat it, otherwise I'd bring it home and cook it."
Leng Shaoting smiled and gently rubbed Gu Ning's head. "If you want to eat fish, we can buy a fish later."
Gu Ning blinked. "Aren't you allergic to seafood? Fish is seafood too."
"I'm not allergic to fish," Leng Shaoting said.
"Nice! We can have fish this afternoon," Gu Ning said with a smile.
Gu Ning's favorite food was seafood. Unfortunately, Leng Shaoting was allergic to seafood, so she never mentioned having seafood when she was with Leng Shaoting.
After Gu Ning put the goldfish back into the water, the goldfish didn't swim away but jumped right in front of Gu Ning, like it was performing for her. In addition, Gu Ning had a strong sense that the goldfish was looking at her gratefully, which astonished Gu Ning, but she didn't say anything. Leng Shaoting also had the same strange feeling and he was as astonished as Gu Ning, but he didn't say anything either.
An idea suddenly dawned on Gu Ning, and she immediately used her Jade Eyes to see what was in the water.
The water was murky but it became crystal clean before Gu Ning's Jade Eyes. There were many fish in the water along with thick aquatic plants. Right when Gu Ning was about to draw her look back, a vermilion wooden box the size of a 50 cm suitcase appeared in her sight.
Are there any antiques in it? She thought to herself. Gu Ning looked inside of the wooden box, and she was right. There were many antiques in the box. Gu Ning recognized some of them, like several porcelain bottles from the Qing Dynasty. All the antiques were from the palace during the Qing Dynasty.
Gu Ning guessed that it was possible that someone had stolen those antiques from the palace but had been discovered, so the antiques were abandoned to the river. They were sailing on the moat now, and there had been ancient palaces next to the moat.
Gu Ning got excited and was caught by Leng Shaoting.
"What happened? Why are you so happy?" Leng Shaoting asked with curiosity.
Gu Ning then realized she shouldn't have shown her excitement, but she didn't panic. "Um, oh, I just saw two fish fighting in the water!"
"Two fish were fighting?" Leng Shaoting was surprised.
Although Gu Ning found the antiques, she couldn't get them right now, especially when Leng Shaoting was here. Therefore, she planned to come to the capital by herself the next time.
Gu Ning wasn't in a hurry, because she didn't think that others would be able to find the wooden box. Otherwise, the wooden box wouldn't have been hidden in the water for hundreds of years.
After walking around the park for an hour, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went back to siheyuan and then drove to antique street.
Chapter 455 Do You Think That I'm Weak?
Once they were at the antique street, Gu Ning unconsciously used her Jade Eyes to scan the objects on the sides of the street. Surprisingly, she did find two real antiques, although they weren't very valuable.
When they walked into Xiangyun Antique-store, Gu Ning directly gave Chen Darong the antiques that she had just bought, and Chen Darong was surprised too.
After that, Chen Darong gave a report to Gu Ning about the sales in the store.
Antique stores weren't busy every day, but Xiangyun Antique-store was an exception. It had even sold several pieces of real antiques.
The owners of other antique stores on the street were jealous, but none of them dared to cause Xiangyun Antique-store any trouble, because it had Master Xu and Master Jiang's support.
Although Gu Ning wouldn't do everything behind Leng Shaoting's back, sometimes she had to avoid him. For example, she couldn't show the antiques that she carried with her in front of Leng Shaoting.
Leng Shaoting had been with Gu Ning the entire time, so he would be suspicious if she suddenly took out a lot of antiques. However, if she showed them in front of Chen Darong, Chen Darong wouldn't have doubt. Therefore, Gu Ning made an excuse and told Chen Darong to discuss something with her in the office, while Leng Shaoting went to wait for her in the lounge.
When they were in the office, Gu Ning took several Sancai antiques out of her backpack.
Chen Darong rounded his eyes in shock when he saw them.
Gu Ning told Chen Darong to deal with the antiques then left with Leng Shaoting.
That afternoon, Gu Ning received Ning Changkai's call. He told her that everything was prepared, and Gu Ning replied that she would go to meet him tomorrow at noon.
Afterwards, Gu Ning invited Cao Wenxin to dine with them in the siheyuan. Leng Shaoting was a little upset that he couldn't be alone with his girl, but he didn't say anything.
When Cao Wenxin arrived at the siheyuan, she was totally shocked, because it was rare to see such a beautiful and grand siheyuan with such a long history in the downtown of the capital.
It had to be worth a fortune! He's so super rich!
"Ningning, I think that brother-in-law can't just be a military officer, because otherwise he couldn't afford such an expensive house!" Cao Wenxin said. If Leng Shaoting was just a military officer, it would be impossible for him to buy this quadrangle.
"Well, he has many properties under his name and he hires people to manage those properties for him, but I don't know any details," Gu Ning said. All of a sudden, Gu Ning was a little curious about Leng Shaoting's properties. She decided to ask him tonight. As for Leng Shaoting's family background, Gu Ning didn't tell Cao Wenxin.
Cao Wenxin told Gu Ning what she had done today and mentioned Su Tongnuo.
After hearing what had happened to Su Tongnuo, an idea dawned on her. Su Tongnuo was stunning with excellent acting skills, which meant that she had a lot of potential. She refused to accept the unspoken rules in the entertainment industry, so she had to be a woman with principles. Gu Ning made up her mind to hire Su Tongnuo.
Of course, she wouldn't jump to conclusions just because of Cao Wenxin's words, so she sent a message to K and told him to investigate Su Tongnuo.
Within 10 minutes, K had the result, which proved that what Cao Wenxin had said was true. Su Tongnuo had annoyed an important figure, and had been shut out of the industry.
The company Su Tongnuo worked for was Feiteng Entertainment, which wasn't very famous in the capital but wasn't small either.
Gu Ning told K to investigate the boss of Feiteng Entertainment to find out whether he had some dirty secrets or not. If he had, she could use his dirty secrets to threaten him to end the contract with Su Tongnuo. Of course, she would talk to him nicely first. If he wasn't willing to do so, she would then threaten him.
"Wenxin, can you help me contact Su Tongnuo?" Gu Ning asked.
"Sure," Cao Wenxin said, although she didn't know why Gu Ning asked the question.
"Please invite her to meet us tonight. I have something that I want to speak to her about," Gu Ning said.
"What are you going to talk to her about?" Cao Wenxin didn't understand, because they didn't know each other at all.
Gu Ning didn't hide her aim and told Cao Wenxin her plan.
Cao Wenxin was astonished. "Ningning, you're so unbelievable! You've established so many companies at such a young age! I feel ashamed of myself now, but can you manage all of those companies yourself?" Cao Wenxin was worried after hearing the shocking news.
"I'm just the behind-scene boss, and I hire able people to help me manage them," Gu Ning said.
"Will they take advantage of you, because you're so young?" Cao Wenxin asked.
"Do you think that I'm weak?" Gu Ning said.
Cao Wenxin was struck dumb for a second, then she realized how awesome Gu Ning was. Gu Ning wasn't afraid to face the head of the gang, so she definitely wouldn't be afraid of normal people.
Cao Wenxin then called Su Tongnuo at once, and told her that Gu Ning was going to sign her. Su Tongnuo was excited and agreed to meet them today.
Before long, Gu Ning received the e-mail sent by K. As she had assumed, the boss of Feiteng Entertainment indeed had many dirty secrets. It wasn't uncommon that they all had some dirty secrets. Gu Ning also had something that she would never want others to find out.
After dinner, Leng Shaoting drove Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin to meet Su Tongnuo. Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin walked into the appointed place, while Leng Shaoting waited in the car.
When Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin arrived, Su Tongnuo was already waiting for them.
Seeing Gu Ning, Su Tongnuo was surprised, because she didn't expect that Gu Ning was so young. However, she still showed her respect towards Gu Ning even though Gu Ning seemed like a student.
"Tongnuo, please let me introduce you. This is my friend, Gu Ning," Cao Wenxin said to Su Tongnuo.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Gu!" Su Tongnuo greeted Gu Ning politely.
"Nice to meet you too, Miss Su." Gu Ning was also polite.
"Have a seat please," Su Tongnuo said. "What do you want to drink?"
A waitress gave Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin a menu. Gu Ning then ordered a coffee, while Cao Wenxin ordered a cup of tea.
Chapter 456 Su Tongnuo
After ordering, Gu Ning said to Su Tongnuo, "Miss Su, Wenxin told me something about you awhile ago, so I asked her more for details. I think that you're a great actress and I'd like to sign you. If you're willing to work for me, I can help you end your contract with Feiteng Entertainment. And I can promise you that there are no unspoken rules in my company. You don't need to serve the clients for a job. As long as you're hard-working and loyal to my company, I'll pay you well. As for my company, I will be honest with you. It's already registered, but is still being redecorated, so it's risky if you follow my lead. It all depends on you, and whether you have the courage and ambition to build your career."
No unspoken rules, and didn't have to serve those disgusting fat men just for a job. That was exactly what Su Tongnuo dreamed for. She didn't really care about the future of Gu Ning's company right now, because she couldn't wait to get rid of Feiteng, and she was brave enough to set out on an adventurous journey.
Therefore, Su Tongnuo agreed without hesitation. "Miss Gu, I'm willing to follow your lead, because my situation couldn't be worse. I'll also work hard as a skillful actress, and be loyal to the company, but…" Although Su Tongnuo was eager to get rid of Feiteng, she felt uneasy when she thought of the influential figure she had annoyed. "The person who shut me out is the son of the vice director of the Cultural Affairs Bureau."
This was the capital. Without the government's support, let alone Feiteng Entertainment which wasn't very large, even the largest entertainment company couldn't run their business in this place. Power overshadowed capital in this country.
"Don't worry. I can handle it," Gu Ning said with confidence.
Since Gu Ning said so, Su Tongnuo chose to believe it, not because of Gu Ning, but because of the power behind Gu Ning. Gu Ning was too young, so Su Tongnuo thought that there had to be someone with a high position supporting her behind the scenes.
"Oh, would you please help me end the contract my assistant has with Feiteng too? She's very nice, and I want to continue to work with her," Su Tongnuo said.
"No problem." Gu Ning didn't care. Since Su Tongnuo already had her favorite assistant, Gu Ning could save some effort in having to help her find one.
"Thank you so much," Su Tongnuo said.
"Alright, I'll go to Feiteng Entertainment tomorrow around 9:30 am. My company is called Fenghua Entertainment, and you're the third person I've hired till now. Welcome to joining us!" Gu Ning said and reached out her hand to shake with Su Tongnuo.
Su Tongnuo ached to leave Feiteng Entertainment, so it wasn't a difficult decision for her to cooperate with Gu Ning. However, they could only sign the contract after Su Tongnuo's agreement with Feiteng Entertainment was ended.
They didn't stay there for too long, and separated after a short while.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting drove Cao Wenxin back to the hotel before they went back to their house. It was still early, so Leng Shaoting hugged Gu Ning while lying on the sofa watching TV.
"Shaoting, what are the companies that you have?" Gu Ning asked. She only knew about Shengshi Security Company.
Gu Ning was finally interested in knowing more about him, so Leng Shaoting was very happy. "I don't know actually, because I've hired other people to manage them for me. The name of my corporation is the Shengshi Group."
Leng Shaoting's corporation was called Shengshi Group, so he thought that he and Gu Ning were meant to be together when Gu Ning told him that her corporation was named Shengning Group.
"Shengshi Group?" Gu Ning was shocked. She had heard of the internationally famous Shengshi Group with over hundreds of billions of yuan in assets. To her astonishment, Leng Shaoting alone was as affluent as a country!
Gu Ning stared at Leng Shaoting coming on to him and said gently, "I didn't expect you're so unbelievably rich! I don't think I need to work at all."
Gu Ning was joking, but Leng Shaoting was turned on at once. He pressed her to his chest. "Sure, but you need to satisfy me first." After saying that, he kissed her.
Gu Ning was surprised that he was so horny. Leng Shaoting, on the other hand, couldn't get enough from Gu Ning. The two had rounds of wild love making on the sofa afterwards.
Gu Ning didn't wake up until 8 o'clock the next morning because she had "worked out" so hard last night. Leng Shaoting had already prepared breakfast for her by the time she got out of bed. After breakfast, Gu Ning made a copy of what K had sent to her in the e-mail.
Seeing the document, Leng Shaoting asked, "Do you need my help?".
"Thanks, but I can handle it," Gu Ning said. "I can't rely on you all the time. I need to practice and learn how to deal with my own business."
Leng Shaoting didn't insist, but said, "Call me whenever you need me."
"I will," Gu Ning said, then she put the document into her backpack. "Let's go!"
Su Tongnuo arrived at the company before 9 am. Although she had already been shut out of the industry, she still had to go to work as usual except on weekends. She had nothing to do, but just sat there. Other actors in the company would make fun of her when they were free.
"Look, Tongnuo is coming to work so early!" a female voice said sarcastically behind Su Tongnuo. After that, a stylish woman walked inside, followed by several men, like she was the queen. The woman looked at Su Tongnuo with obvious arrogance, and the people who followed her also stared at Su Tongnuo with disdain.
The woman was Li Jiayue, who was also an actress in Feiteng Entertainment. She had been signed by Feiteng at the same time as Su Tongnuo. However, Su Tongnuo was a better actress than her, so Li Jiayue didn't have many chances and hated Su Tongnuo very much. She admitted that she wasn't as pretty or skillful as Su Tongnuo, but she didn't think she should be ignored because of Su Tongnuo.
Ever since Su Tongnuo had been shut out of the industry after she had refused to accept the unspoken rules, Li Jiayue finally had the chance to become famous by doing what Su Tongnuo didn't want to do.
Chapter 457 End the Contract
Although Li Jiayue wasn't one of the A-list yet, she had already gained a lot of fame and believed that she would be a household name
soon.
Su Tongnuo just gave her a glance, but didn't say anything or greet her.
"You're so rude that you don't greet Jiayue when she's here. Who do you think you are? A big star?" Li Jiayue's assistant said acidly.
Su Tongnuo calmly looked to the assistant, and asked, "Is it in the law that common citizens have to greet a star when she appears?"
"You…" The assistant was mad. "Su Tongnuo, what do you think you are!"
"What's wrong with your eyes? I'm a human being. Can't you see that?" Su Tongnuo laughed.
"You…" The assistant was furious, but didn't know what to say.
Seeing her assistant humiliated, Li Jiayue was displeased. "Su Tongnuo, let's go and see!"
After that, she walked a few steps, then suddenly stopped, yelling at a girl who was glaring at her. "There is nothing to look at! Pour me a coffee right now!"
The girl was Su Tongnuo's assistant, Lin Xiaoxia. Ever since Su Tongnuo had been shut out of the industry, Lin Xiaoxia became everyone's servant. Nearly anyone in the company could order her to do trifles.
"Fine." Lin Xiaoxia was reluctant to do it, but she couldn't reject.
Although Su Tongnuo wanted to stop it, she couldn't protect her friend since her contact with the company was still valid.
When it was almost 9:30 am, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived at Feiteng Entertainment. Gu Ning walked in alone, while Leng Shaoting waited in the car.
When Gu Ning had just walked to the door and was about to call Su Tongnuo, she noticed that a car stopped in front of the building and Xia Zhihong, who was the boss of Feiteng Entertainment, stepped out of it.
"Chairman Xia, please wait a second," Gu Ning called him.
Xia Zhihong turned around when he heard someone calling him. When his sight fell on Gu Ning, he was stunned by her beauty, because Gu Ning was even prettier than the actresses in his company. Xia Zhihong was lustful, so he leered at Gu Ning when she walked to him. Gu Ning was annoyed by his look, but didn't say anything
"May I help, miss?" Xia Zhihong asked, but he that Gu Ning must want to be a star like every beautiful young girl. If so, Xia Zhihong would have plenty of chances to make advances on her.
Xia Zhihong was a man who was around 40. He was also fat and ugly. What was worse, he was very lewd and it was disgusting having to talk to him.
Gu Ning smiled lightly. "I'd like to make a deal with Chairman Xia. Are you free now?"
"Of course. We can talk in my office." Xia Zhihong wanted to sexually assault Gu Ning, so he invited her to his office. Although Xia Zhihong made Gu Ning feel disgusted, she also preferred to talk with him in the office.
On the way, people started to gossip when their chairman walked in with a beautiful young girl. Some thought that Gu Ning was their chairman's relative, while some guessed that she must be a new actress.
Gu Ning followed Xia Zhihong to his office. Xia Zhihong told his secretary to leave, so only Gu Ning and he were in the room.
At this time, Xia Zhihong almost couldn't wait to press Gu Ning on the sofa. "May I know your name, miss? What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"
"I don't think it's necessary for Chairman Xia to know my name." Gu Ning sneered. "I came here today to end the contracts that Su Tongnuo and her assistant, Lin Xiaoxia, have with you."
Hearing that, Xia Zhihong was surprised. Obviously, he didn't expect that Gu Ning was here to help Su Tongnuo. All of a sudden, he changed his expression and sneered too. "You want to help Su Tongnuo out? I don't think that's possible." In other words, he refused.
"What if I insist?" Gu Ning smiled. "As long as they can afford the liquidated damages, the company can't force them to stay. Otherwise, it's illegal, and I think Chairman Xia should know that."
Xia Zhihong of course knew that, but didn't take it seriously. Instead, he said with obvious disdain, "Young girl, don't be so naive. Su Tongnuo has annoyed an influential figure, and no lawyer would dare to take this case."
Gu Ning didn't mind his attitude, but asked, "Are you sure?"
"It's impossible. However, if you want to be a star, I can help you with that." Xia Zhihong leered at Gu Ning again.
"Well, why don't you read this first and have a second thought," Gu Ning said and took out a document from her backpack, then laid it in front of Xia Zhihong.
Xia Zhihong picked it up with curiosity, but panicked when he read it.
"You…" Xia Zhihong couldn't believe his eyes. The document was evidence of Xia Zhihong's crimes which included rape and bribery. If the women who had been raped by Xia Hongzhi didn't sue him, the cases wouldn't stand, but the crime of bribery alone could send him to jail for years. Xia Zhihong trembled in fear after reading the document.
Gu Ning wore a fake smile and asked him again, "Well, do you think that it's possible to end the contracts now?"
"Fine, we-we can, but this document…" Xia Zhihong compromised without hesitation, because the last thing he wanted to do was to spend the rest of his life in prison.
"As long as you agree to let them go, I can pretend that this document never existed. However, if you commit these crimes again, I can't promise what will happen," Gu Ning said.
Although Xia Zhihong was guilty of crimes, Gu Ning would ignore him this time for Su Tongnuo.
"Great-great." Xia Zhihong immediately agreed. He called his secretary at once and gave the order to end the contracts with Su Tongnuo and Lin Xiaoxia.
Hearing that, his secretary was shocked, because it would annoy the influential figure that nobody in this industry wanted to have bad blood with.
Chapter 458 The First Actress
Although his secretary was curious, he knew that he shouldn't ask any questions.
Gu Ning had sent a message to Su Tongnuo and told her to wait for her news. Su Tongnuo trusted Gu Ning's ability, but she was still nervous while waiting for the result. After Xia Zhihong's secretary told them to go to Xia Zhihong's office, Su Tongnuo was finally relieved.
"Tongnuo, why does the chairman want to see us in his office?" Lin Xiaoxia didn't know that Su Tongnuo was going to leave the company, so she was worried. "Is he going to force you to do something disgusting again?" Thinking of that, Lin Xiaoxia was mad.
Su Tongnuo smiled lightly. "Xiaoxia, do you still remember that I told you that if I'm going to leave this company, you'll go with me?"
"Yes," Lin Xiaoxia said, but she still didn't understand why their chairman wanted to see them in his office.
"Let's go! You'll find out soon." Su Tongnuo didn't tell Lin Xiaoxia directly, but pulled her, quickly walking to the chairman's office.
When Lin Xiaoxia found out that they could leave the company, she was thrilled. Although she could quit her job at any time, there was nothing better than that she could leave together with Su Tongnuo.
Xia Zhihong didn't even dare to ask for the liquidated damages. And since he didn't mention it, Gu Ning wouldn't bother to pay him.
After that, Su Tongnuo and Lin Xiaoxia went back to their office and packed their stuff. Everyone around them was surprised.
"What are you doing?" someone asked.
"Leaving this place," Su Tongnuo said happily.
"What? Leaving Feiteng Entertainment? You ended your contract?" Everyone was shocked.
Su Tongnuo and Lin Xiaoxia packed their stuff and went straight downstairs. Gu Ning was waiting for them at the front door.
The shocking news that Su Tongnuo successfully ended her contract with Feiteng Entertainment quickly went abroad in the company. It was universally known that Su Tongnuo had annoyed an influential figure that their chairman didn't dare to irritate. If Su Tongnuo was able to end her contract, either the influential figure forgave her or she had support from another more influential figure.
Li Jiayue smashed a cup on the floor when she heard the news. She refused to accept the fact that Su Tongnuo was going to be famous, and made up her mind to be more successful than Su Tongnuo.
Although Su Tongnuo already ended her contract with Feiteng, Gu Ning still had something to discuss with her, so Gu Ning told Lin Xiaoxia to leave before them, while Su Tongnuo and Gu Ning went to a nearby café. Leng Shaoting was still patiently waiting for Gu Ning in the car.
Gu Ning took out the contract and gave it to Su Tongnuo. "Here is the contract. If there is no problem, you can sign it."
Su Tongnuo read the contract through, and was completely surprised when she noticed the ratio of the company's take to her take. It was 6-4, which meant the company would take 60% while she could have 40% of the profit. Usually, the ratio was 8-2. If the actors were A-list, the ratio would be 7-3, and it was rare to see 6-4, unless the actor was a household name.
"Boss, are you sure?" Su Tongnuo asked with uncertainty.
Gu Ning smiled. "Yes, I'm sure. It's just the beginning. If you can become one of the A-list, the ratio will be 5-5. Work hard!"
Su Tongnuo was shocked again. If she could become an A-list actress, she could have 50% of the profit! Her new boss was really generous! After the shock, Su Tongnuo kept on reading
The company would provide a single bedroom apartment for her and pay the utilities. If she had her own house, the company would give her three thousand yuan monthly as a housing allowance, and reimburse her for utilities. Although Su Tongnuo had been shut out of the entertainment industry for a year, she had been famous before and had made a lot of money too, so she had her own house. In that case, she chose to have the housing allowance of three thousand yuan. At the end of the contract, Su Tongnuo signed her name.
"The company building is still being redecorated so we are renting a studio for now. After the Lantern Festival, we're going to shoot a TV series. Although you work for me now, I've promised the director that he could choose actors on his own. Therefore, I don't know whether you can be the leading actress, but you'll have an audition for it. And since you have already joined us, I will definitely help you become famous. If you can't get the leading role, I can let you play a role with some lines in the show at least. Don't worry. You'll have plenty of chances in the future."
"Oh, our company is brand new, so no famous actors will join us yet. And we might use many new actors. I hope you don't mind or feel aggrieved," Gu Ning said.
"I won't. Thank you so much!" Su Tongnuo didn't care if she could only be a role with several lines in the show. As long as she could show up again, she was happy enough. In addition, she would work hard for her future
too.
"Alright, I'll inform you about the specific schedule later. You can leave now."
After that, Gu Ning and Su Tongnuo separated.
It was almost 11 am, so Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went to have lunch first. After lunch, Gu Ning rested for a while before she went to Colaine Pharmaceutical Company around 2 pm.
The production lines were all ready and Gu Ning took a bottle of power crystals. There was a 100 crystals in the bottle and each was the size of a pearl and shone like a diamond.
Afterwards, a power crystal was taken out to be tested. As the result showed, it didn't contain any chemicals at all, which surprised everyone in the factory. Even water contained hydrogen and oxygen, but the power crystal was like something that never even existed. Since there were no harmful chemicals in the power crystal, it was safe to be used in the medicine.
Workers in the medical factory then started to make medicines with the help of machines. The first kind was cold medicine.
hapter 459 Am I Good?
The original ingredients were acetaminophen, amantadine hydrochloride, caffeine, artificial bezoar, chlorpheniramine maleate, and now added power crystal. Of course, they wouldn't mention power crystal on the composition table.
The ratio of power crystal to the original ingredients was 1-10. If the original ingredients weighed a kilogram, then the power crystal would be a hundred grams.
Hours later, the cold medicine was ready. After the second test, it showed nothing different from their old one, but its effect was greatly enhanced.
A worker who coincidentally had a cold would be the human guinea pig. Since they had already tested it twice, it wouldn't be harmful, so the worker agreed. Once the pill was in his mouth, he felt a comfortable coldness spreading through his body. Within three minutes, he felt much better. The proportion of power crystal in this cold medicine wasn't large, so he wouldn't recover that quickly but its effect was already amazing enough.
As for the make-up production, Gu Ning decided to produce masks, creams, lotions, serum, and so on and the ratio would be 2-10.
Gu Ning talked with Ning Changkai for a while longer later, and told him to deal with the store and decoration as soon as possible.
Afterwards, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting left.
It was almost 5 pm when they left, so Gu Ning called Cao Wenxin and invited her to dine together.
Gu Ning had been busy all day, and Leng Shaoting didn't have much time to be alone with her, but now Cao Wenxin would join them again. Leng Shaoting was a little unhappy, but didn't say anything.
Gu Ning also understood that Leng Shaoting would rather be alone with her, but she couldn't abandon Cao Wenxin in the hotel.
Tang Yunfan had been in City D for two days, and had also visited the university that Gu Man had studied in, as well as the place where he had the accident, but he still failed to remember anything. Tang Yunfan almost lost his patience.
In order to find some clues, Tang Yunfan flew to City F and went to the shopping mall where Kamei Beauty Salon was in. He wore a mask and hid in a corner, trying to catch glances of Gu Man.
Around 5:30 pm, Gu Man also got off work. Gu Qing was absent today, so she went home alone.
It was getting warmer after the New Year Festival, and it was a sunny day. Gu Man was in a dark brown woolen coat wearing light make-up with her hair casually tied up, and looked very elegant and noble.
When Tang Yunfan who was hidden in a corner saw Gu Man coming out of the salon, he was stunned and felt the strange intimacy again. However, he still couldn't remember anything
Gu Man didn't drive, and Gao Yi and Qiao Ya weren't with her, so she took a taxi home. Tang Yunfan then drove a car, following her till Fenghua Luxury Mansion.
Gu Man was going to do grocery shopping in a nearby supermarket, so she got out outside of Fenghua Luxury Mansion.
There were three hoodlums fooling around. And when Gu Man appeared in their sight, they had an idea to rob her. They gave each other a knowing glance, then walked to Gu Man.
All of a sudden, one of them grabbed Gu Man's handbag and ran away. Gu Man was very scared and shouted. "A robber!"
Gu Man wanted to chase him, but was afraid of getting hurt.
Tang Yunfan was following Gu Man all the way, so he immediately chased the thief.
Although Tang Yunfan had aged, he was still able to run and fight like a soldier from the Special Forces. Within minutes, he beat the three hoodlums down and took back Gu Man's handbag. However, when Tang Yunfan walked to Gu Man with her handbag in his hand, he felt a little shy to look her in the eye.
"Thank you so much, sir!" Gu Man said sincerely.
Tang Yunfan said in a low voice, "You're welcome."
"Sir, if you don't mind, may I invite you to share a meal with me? I want to thank you for your brave and kind behavior," Gu Man said. Although they were merely strangers, he had helped her, so she was grateful.
"No need. Bye." Tang Yunfan rejected, because he didn't want her to see his face. After that, he turned around, walking to the sales hall of Fenghua Luxury Mansion. Tang Yunfan planned to buy an apartment here, especially one that was near Gu Man's home.
Watching Tang Yunfan walking away from her, Gu Man suddenly felt like he was familiar, but she didn't think further and went to the supermarket.
Tang Yunfan was lucky and bought a well-decorated apartment right opposite Gu Man's home. In other words, he was able to see into the living room of Gu Man's apartment.
Both Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin were leaving the capital the next day, and they would go to the airport together.
Gu Ning's flight would take off at 1:50 pm, while Cao Wenxin's was at 1:35 pm, so they would have lunch together before heading to the airport.
Cao Wenxin said to Gu Ning, "Ningning, my friend told me to thank you for what you did for Su Tongnuo."
Su Tongnuo and Ai Xinyu were close friends while Ai Xinyu and Cao Wenxin were close friends too, so Cao Wenxin would love to thank Gu Ning for Ai Xinyu's sake.
"No big deal. Su Tongnuo is the person I wanted to sign too," Gu Ning said.
After grocery shopping, Gu Man went back home and cooked for herself.
In the opposite apartment, Tang Yunfan could sometimes see Gu Man walking through the living room.
During the night, Gu Man sat in the living room watching TV. Gu Qing came to chat with her for a while, and then left. Gu Man was alone again.
Seeing that Gu Man was alone and seemed lonely, Tang Yunfan felt uncomfortable and his heart ached for her. He wanted to keep her company, but he still couldn't remember anything.
That night, Gu Ning barely slept, because Leng Shaoting wouldn't let her sleep. Gu Ning was leaving tomorrow, and Leng Shaoting didn't know when they would meet again so he wildly made love to her countless times.
"Ningning, tell me. Am I good?" Every man wanted to be complimented about their sexual ability.
Home Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School Chapter 459 – Am I Good?
Chapter 460 Selfish Gu Qinxiang
"Of-of course you are!" Gu Ning had to admit that Leng Shaoting was quite good in bed, but she could hardly afford to at the moment because with Gu Ning's affirmative answer, Leng Shaoting moved harder.
"I can't. I can't take it anymore." Gu Ning wanted to stop him, but he wouldn't stop. And Gu Ning wasn't willing to protect herself in such a situation because even though it was overwhelming, she still wanted to feel it.
"Ningning, I love you. I love you so much!" Leng Shaoting didn't stop, because he was about to come and wanted to rub Gu Ning into his body.
"Shaoting, I love you too! I really love you too!"
Gu Ning's sweet words made Leng Shaoting moved more violently. It was a little too violent for Gu Ning to enjoy it, but she still had a nice orgasm.
The next day, Gu Man and Gu Qing left their homes around 8:30 am. Jiang Xu drove them to the shopping mall before he went to his store.
Jiang Xu's construction material store was gradually becoming popular. Especially after Gu Ning's identity had been exposed, many businessmen would turn to Jiang Xu for cooperation in order to maintain a good relationship with Gu Ning's family. Therefore, Jiang Xu was very busy now.
Ever since Gu Qing and Gu Man left Fenghua Luxury Mansion, Tang Yunfan followed them.
Leng Shaoting got up early that morning as usual to prepare breakfast for Gu Ning. However, Gu Ning was so exhausted that she didn't wake up until 9 am.
After breakfast, Leng Shaoting pressed her into his arms and they had sex again. When it was almost 10 am, they left for Huangdeng Hotel.
Gu Qing and Gu Man went to a nearby restaurant to dine together. Unexpectedly, Gu Qinxiang showed up out of the blue and came to borrow money from Gu Qing and Gu Man.
"Qing, Man, I know that I've done many things wrong, but let bygones be bygones. We're biological siblings. Can't you help this time?" Gu Qinxiang said. It was the first time that he ever had been so polite to Gu Qing and Gu Man.
Biological siblings? Gu Qinxiang was utterly shameless. Not only had he bullied them ever since they were young, he had also refused to lend them money when Gu Ning had been in the car accident and could have died at any moment. And now, he suddenly played the family card when trying to borrow money from them?
Gu Qing and Gu Man stayed calm and cold. "No, we can't help you. Please stay away from us," Gu Man said.
"How-how can you be so cold-blooded?" Although this wasn't the first time Gu Qinxiang had been rejected, he couldn't accept
it.
They were cold-blooded? Gu Qing immediately retorted. "When Ningning was in that car accident, we went to borrow just ten thousand yuan from you, but you refused without hesitation! Ningning could have died! Do you think it's possible that you can borrow dozens of millions of yuan from us now?"
Although it wasn't Gu Qinxiang's duty to lend them money, he was rich and Gu Ning's life had been in danger. However, he still refused to help them, he was very selfish. Gu Qing and Gu Man weren't dumb, nor were they weak. It was quite understandable that Gu Man wasn't willing to lend him money.
Tang Yunfan was sitting at the table next to them, so he heard their conversation clearly. He was very mad that Ningning's biological uncle was such a selfish and shameless man.
"Ningning's fine now. What's the big deal?" Gu Qinxiang argued. He didn't feel guilty at all.
This time, Gu Qing and Gu Man couldn't tolerate it anymore. "How can you say that!" Gu Qing criticized him in anger.
"We will not lend you any money. It doesn't matter what you think of us," Gu Man said coldly.
"You can sell your company if you want money. We were able to live our life on dozens of thousands of yuan a year in the past, and you can survive too."
"Gu Man! Are you saying that we can't live a good life?" Gu Qinxiang snapped at Gu Man. In his eyes, Gu Man couldn't wait to see him living a poor life.
"I don't care what you think of us. It has nothing to do with us whether you live a good life or not! If you dare to harass us again, we'll call the police!" Gu Man said icily.
"You…" Gu Qinxiang was furious, but couldn't say anything. He was so selfish that he would never blame himself for his own mistakes.
"Ah! How can he be so shameless! I'm so mad that I have such a useless older brother!" Gu Qing said.
"There, there. It isn't worth being upset over such a man." Gu Man comforted her.
Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin left for the airport together around 12 am.
On the way, Leng Shaoting stayed quiet, because he didn't want to leave Gu Ning. Gu Ning also had the same feeling, but they had to deal with their own businesses.
When they arrived at the airport, Leng Shaoting didn't leave until Gu Ning walked into the lounge and disappeared from his sight.
The gates Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin would be boarding through weren't far from each other, so Gu Ning went to sit with Cao Wenxin while they were waiting.
At this time, Xin Bei walked over.
They were all surprised to see each other again.
"Hi, Gu Ning, are you going to City B too?" Xin Bei asked Gu Ning and ignored Cao Wenxin. Cao Wenxin also turned her eyes away from him.
