1171 Break a Promise?

Because of the good insulation, nobody outside could hear any noise from inside the room.

At the beginning, Lin Xiaoyu's ghost thought that the punishment wasn't severe enough, but they gradually became more violent so it was satisfied.

There were no bottles of drinks, but there were two ashtrays in the private room, so the four men began to use an ashtray to hit each other.

Two of them took control of the fight, and the other two men were beaten down on the ground.

When there were only two men left standing in the room, they started to fight against each other.

Wan Chao was out of strength, lying on the floor now, but he was still breathing.

At this moment, Gu Ning walked over and heavily stepped on his knee. With a clear sound, Wan Chao's leg was broken and he passed out at once.

Gu Ning used her magical power when she stepped on Wan Chao's knee, so his knee was frozen. She had done the same thing before when she went to rescue Master Jiang's grandson last time in the capital.

Once Wan Chao's knee was injured by her magical power, it was impossible for it to be cured again.

She also put a little magical power into his brain to keep him alive.

Lin Xiaoyu's ghost had said that it hoped that they could all be disabled one day and live the rest of their lives in torture.

Another man was also hit in the head by an ashtray, but the injury wasn't as serious as the one on Wan Chao's head, so Gu Ning didn't bother to help him with her magical power. She then did the same thing to break the man's leg.

Maybe it was too cruel, but Lin Xiaoyu had suffered more than that.

After a short while, there was finally a winner, and he ran to the door at once. However, Gu Ning stopped him.

"What are you doing?" The man was confused.

"You'll ruin the business of this bar if you ran outside like this. Relax, I won't put you in jail," Gu Ning said.

None of them would be put in jail, but they would be handicapped.

The man exhaled deeply. The next second, to his astonishment, Gu Ning kicked his lap with great force and froze the injury with her magical power.

The man shouted in pain and fell on the ground. He didn't expect that Gu Ning would attack him all of a sudden, then shouted at her in anger, "You broke your promise!"

"I just said that I won't put you in jail, but I didn't promise not to hurt you," Gu Ning said.

"You…" The man clenched his teeth. He realized that Gu Ning just played a trick with them, but he had to swallow his anger. Unfortunately, he didn't know that his leg couldn't be cured.

Without hesitation, Gu Ning did the same thing to the last man.

After that, she called Wu Sen to come inside.

Wu Sen was slightly surprised by the scene, but said nothing.

"Manager Wu, I need you to do something for me," Gu Ning said.

"Sure," Wu Sen said.

"Please treat these people and keep them alive before throwing them to another city. Let them be beggars for a month and forbid them to call the police," Gu Ning said.

She didn't care what happened to them after a month.

"No problem, Miss Gu," Wu Sen said.

When Gu Ning turned to look at Lin Xiaoyu's ghost, she saw that it became transparent and the Yin gradually dispersed.

Gu Ning felt comforted seeing that.

"Thank you so much, Miss Gu," Lin Xiaoyu's ghost said to Gu Ning with sincerity.

It already got its revenge, so there was no need for it to stay in the world.

Gu Ning smiled at it and said nothing.

The next second, Lin Xiaoyu's ghost disappeared in the air.

At the same time, Gu Ning felt the energy inside her body grew a little, but she still didn't know what it was.

She left later and met Miss Ma in the hall.

Miss Ma glared at Gu Ning with hatred, but she didn't dare to stand in Gu Ning's way.

The waiter had already warned her to stay away from Gu Ning because Gu Ning was a distinguished guest.

Miss Ma didn't know why Wu Sen had to meet Gu Ning in a private room alone, so she was worried that they might be doing something bad inside.

Gu Ning ignored her and left Wind Bar. She called Situ Ye at once and thanked him for his help.

She told Situ Ye that she was leaving for City B tomorrow and they could dine together again next time.

Situ Ye agreed.

1172 Show off

Situ Ye wouldn't turn down a girl he liked.

Wu Sen called Chu Xuanfeng as well and told him what had happened.

Although Gu Ning already gave Situ Ye a call, Chu Xuanfeng still reported it to Situ Ye again, because it was his job.

…

Gu Ning called Tang Qingyang next, because she had missed his call earlier.

"Hi, what's up?" Gu Ning asked.

"Hi, I just received a call from the Tang Organization this afternoon, and I need to go back to work at its headquarters in a few days," Tang Qingyang said.

Gu Ning smiled. "They got nervous because you're developing towards a better direction. You're a threat in their eyes now. Well, it's not a bad thing anyway. The National College Entrance Examination is only half a month away, and I'll be going to the capital afterwards to start our plan. During this time, you should keep a low profile to protect yourself. Don't worry, I don't think Tang Bingsen wants to hurt you for the time being."

Gu Ning was aware of Tang Qingyang's will, so she knew that Tang Bingsen wouldn't hurt Tang Qingyang now. If Tang Qingyang was dead, he couldn't get the shares which belonged to Tang Qingyang. As long as Tang Qingyang was alive, the will could be changed at any moment.

"I'm going back to City B tomorrow, so we can have a meeting at 3 pm," Gu Ning said.

"Sure," Tang Qingyang said. He was Gu Ning's partner now, so he should talk with her first before taking action.

…

The next morning, Gao Yi and Qiao Ya came to pick Gu Ning up before they went to the airport.

After arriving at City B, they took a taxi to Huafu Hills.

It was about lunchtime, so they went to do grocery shopping in a supermarket before they went back home.

Qiao Ya cooked when they got home, while Gu Ning went to have a shower.

Gu Ning planned to visit her family at the Tang family's house later that afternoon.

…

When it was 2 pm, Gu Ning left home with Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to go meet Tang Qingyang.

Because only her Lamborghini was left in her garage, they had to take it even though Gu Ning thought that it was too noticeable.

Gao Yi drove, with Qiao Ya sitting in the front passenger's seat, and Gu Ning sitting in the rear seats.

A luxury car was always the focus of people's attention, so Gu Ning could hear people's exclamations once in a while.

Even though City B was an affluent city with many luxury cars, it was still rare to see a luxury car which cost over 10 million yuan, because the amount of super luxury cars was limited. Therefore, it took more than just money to get one.

…

Gu Ning soon arrived at the appointed Café.

The car was parked outside the café, and it immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Gu Ning got out of it first and told Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to park it in the parking lot.

Many of the girls there were envious of Gu Ning the second she showed up. Most of them wanted to marry into a super-rich family, but only few of them could actualize this dream.

Super-rich families would usually only marry people from families of equal social status. Therefore, it wasn't easy to live a relaxed and happy life in a super-rich family.

"It's just a luxury car. I don't think that such a young girl can afford it herself. There is nothing to show off!" a woman who was dressed in all kinds of designer brands said. However, it was just sour grapes.

The woman didn't know that the car was actually Gu Ning's.

Gu Ning heard her comment, but didn't bother to waste time arguing with the woman, so she walked inside alone.

There were two other women beside the woman who was jealous of Gu Ning. Woman A said, "Do you know her? Why do you think the car isn't hers?"

It was obvious that Woman A disliked that woman.

The woman frowned and said with obvious disdain, "Who is she then?"

"She's the founder of Jade Beauty Jewelry and Charm, Gu Ning. She's also a billionaire, and a sports car is nothing in her eyes!" Woman A said.

Woman A recognized Gu Ning, and she admired Gu Ning's ability too.

"What? She's the founder of Jade Beauty Jewelry and Charm?" The woman was surprised and felt embarrassed. She gave Woman A a glare and closed her mouth.

Woman A pulled her lips and looked away.

Chapter 1173 Amid Criticisms

"Alright, let's go inside now!" Woman B wore a resigned look. She didn't want them to argue again, so she immediately stopped them.They never got along with each other and argued every time they met one another, but Woman B could do nothing about it.

Woman A didn't care much about it and went ahead first.

After that, they went into the same café that Gu Ning just entered.

Tang Qingyang was already there when Gu Ning came, because he lived nearby.

"Hi, Gu Ning, have a seat!" Tang Qingyang greeted her with a broad smile.

Gu Ning sat down and a waitress handed her a menu, then she ordered a cup of coffee.

The three women followed Gu Ning inside. They saw Gu Ning and Tang Qingyang.

The woman who was jealous of Gu Ning was displeased when she saw Gu Ning again. She hated Gu Ning for no reason.

Maybe because Woman A had embarrassed her, she blamed Gu Ning for it.

Although she was shocked by Gu Ning's identity, she didn't admire Gu Ning. Instead, she was even more jealous of Gu Ning now, because Gu Ning owned so many companies at such a young age.

Gu Ning sensed the woman's glare, and she was annoyed. She was unwilling to argue with the woman, but she couldn't tolerate the woman's unreasonable behavior. Therefore, she gave the woman a harsh look, which frightened the woman causing the woman to move her eyes away at once.

She was scared by Gu Ning.

Tang Qingyang followed the direction of Gu Ning's look, and noticed the woman's expression. He cocked his eyebrow and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, just a strange woman," Gu Ning said and shrugged.

Tang Qingyang didn't ask further and kept on talking about the business.

The woman, however, was reluctant to give in. She felt like she had to do something to release her anger.

After thinking for a while, she took out her phone and signed up a new Weibo account which was named Xue Feifei before she posted something.

Xue Feifei: I saw Gu Ning, the founder of Jade Beauty Jewelry and Charm, walking out of a hotel along with an old man today. They behaved like a couple! I was shocked by her abnormal relationship with that man.

She also @(mentioned) many influential Weibo entertainment accounts.

…

The woman's real name was Li Xiaoxiao. Because she had no proof attached to this post, nobody believed it.

Some people didn't want to annoy Gu Ning, so they directly ignored this post, but some still planned to attract public attention by using Gu Ning's fame.

Gu Ning was already a famous person on the Internet, and her name could help them get more attention.

However, because they were afraid of Gu Ning's influence, they didn't leave any comments but simply reposted the message.

Once they reposted it, more and more Internet users noticed it.

Even though Gu Ning was very famous, not everyone was aware of her achievements, so many Internet users jumped to conclusions from insignificant evidence.

Within a short while, Gu Ning's fans read this post and immediately criticized the original Weibo account that sent the message out.

Gu Ning's fans were loyal to Gu Ning without doubt, and they knew her very well too, so they trusted Gu Ning and believed that it was a piece of fake news.

Li Xiaoxiao's Weibo account was amid criticisms afterwards.

As Gu Ning's fans continued to defend her, more people began to believe that the message wasn't true.

…

Li Xiaoxiao felt much better when many Internet users criticized Gu Ning, so she was surprised when the situation soon made a U-turn.

As time went by, some aggressive Internet users started to curse her and her family.

Li Xiaoxiao trembled in anger and suddenly hit her phone against the table. It caused a loud sound, which scared Woman A and Woman B.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing?" Woman B asked in an unhappy tone.

"I need to use the ladies' room," Li Xiaoxiao said and stood up at once.

After that, she left for the washroom.

Other people in the café frowned with annoyance, but said nothing.

…

"Well, I think you should pay more attention to your own safety during this time, although he might not hurt you behind your back again. Your bodyguards are too weak, and I can recommend someone to you if you don't mind," Gu Ning said.

It was some kind advice from Gu Ning, and she wouldn't force him to follow it. She had no intention to take advantage of Tang Qingyang, but Tang Qingyang wasn't very familiar with her right now.

"Sure, thanks!" Tang Qingyang accepted Gu Ning's advice. He thought that it was reasonable and he trusted Gu Ning as well.

Even if Gu Ning wanted someone to spy on him, he didn't mind it, as long as it wasn't a threat to his life.

He wasn't ambitious to take over the Tang Organization, he simply wanted to take revenge.

Chapter 1174 Kamei Grows More Successful

Even if Gu Ning took over the Tang Organization, he wouldn't disagree with it, because Gu Ning had done a lot for their plan, and he already had 20% shares.Given his own ability, it was very hard for him to obtain the whole Tang Organization. He just wanted to find evidence that Tang Bingsen had caused his father's death so that Tang Bingsen could be punished according to the law.

If he could punish Tang Bingse more severely, it would be better.

That was Tang Qingyang's aim.

If Gu Ning kept her promise and let him take over the Tang Organization, he would accept it too and manage it well.

"Great, I'll give you his number and you can call him when you go to the capital tomorrow. I'll talk to him about it later," Gu Ning said.

"Thanks," Tang Qingyang said.

…

After dining with Tang Qingyang, Gu Ning called Ba Tianyang from her car and told him what he should do next.

Gu Ning planned to send Ba Tianyang to protect Tang Qingyang. Although she wouldn't charge Tang Qingyang any fees, her company would still pay Ba Tianyang.

After that, Gu Ning called Tang Haifeng, because Tang Haifeng was the most respected figure in the Tang family.

Tang Haifeng was very happy when Gu Ning said that she would be having dinner with them that afternoon in the Tang family's house.

Gu Ning also asked Tang Haifeng whether Gu Man was home. Tang Haifeng then told her that Gu Man was in the beauty salon.

Gu Ning then told Gao Yi to drive towards Fengshang Shopping Mall. She wanted to have a look at Kamei Beauty Salon and pick Gu Man up on the way.

Gu Ning got out at Fengshang Shopping Mall while Gao Yi and Qiao Ya left together. There was nothing else for them to do, so Gu Ning allowed them to enjoy some private time. They were a couple after all.

Gu Ning walked to Kamei Beauty Salon by herself later.

At the beginning, Kamei Beauty Salon was only relatively popular, but it had become super popular now.

Because of Gu Man's wedding with Tang Yunfan, more and more super-rich ladies came to make friends with Gu Man in order to have a good relationship with the Tang family.

In addition, it was also undeniable that the skincare products that Kamei Beauty Salon used were quite effective, and they truly liked to spend money in Kamei.

Most of the customers became VIP members of Kamei because of the skincare products it used. However, although Gu Ning rented a large store, it was still too crowded sometimes.

Other branches of Kamei were still under decoration and furnishing, so its VIP members all gathered in the flagship store. So, for now, everyone had to make a reservation several days in advance.

No matter how rich you were, you had to obey this rule, because Kamei Beauty Salon treated its customers fairly.

Because Kamei Beauty Salon was too popular, there were only two receptionists left at the front desk when Gu Ning arrived.

In the lounge, several rich ladies were waiting for their facial treatment.

Normally, they needed to wait for 10 minutes for their turn. If they were absent, other people might take their places.

Gu Ning was the person who bought this store, so all the staff members had a deep impression of her. Once she showed up, the two receptionists greeted her politely. "Nice to see you, Miss Gu."

They were excited to see Gu Ning because Gu Ning had changed their lives.

Given Kamei's popularity, their salaries increased rapidly.

They could only get seven thousand yuan a month in the past, but now they could have nearly twenty thousand yuan. And the beauticians in Kamei could have even higher salaries than them.

With such a decent pay, they were able to live a good life in a first-tier city.

"Hi, where is my mom?" Gu Ning asked them with a smile.

"She's in the office now," a receptionist replied.

"Thanks," Gu Ning said.

Afterwards, she walked towards Gu Man's office.

She heard Gu Man talking with someone about business in the office, so she waited outside the door.

Because Kamei developed so well within a short time, many people sought cooperation. Most of them wanted to open franchises, but Gu Man turned them down.

Although Gu Man wasn't experienced in business, she knew that she should build and develop her brand properly first. She could make more money in the future, but it was very important to gain a good reputation now.

If she allowed other people to open franchises, she wouldn't be able to manage them. As a result, the quality of their products and service couldn't be guaranteed.

1175 He Is Your Son?

Many franchises only wanted to make as much money as possible, so they might sell fake products under the name of real products.

In that case, customers could have a bad impression of the skincare brand, which would affect the business.

It wasn't a secret that Kamei Beauty Salon only used Kouzi. Therefore, once the reputation of Kouzi was damaged, Kamei Beauty Salon would be affected too.

In addition, Gu Man could make enough money by herself and she didn't rely on the fees of the franchises to make a living.

Because Gu Man remained adamant, the conversation ended in the office after a short while, and Gu Man walked several people out.

"Ningning, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Gu Man's face lit up the second she saw Gu Ning.

Gu Ning hugged Gu Man's arm and said, "I wanted to give you a surprise. Are you surprised?"

She only behaved like a little girl in front of Gu Man.

"Ha-ha, I am surprised!" Gu Man laughed a little with happiness.

"Manager Ding, please help me walk our guests out," Gu Man said to Manager Ding.

Gu Man was the boss after all, and there was no need for her to walk the guests out to the door.

As time went by, Gu Man had gradually become a strong woman. When Gu Ning was just reborn, Gu Man was a weak woman.

At that time, Gu Ning had promised to give Gu Man an affluent life and she achieved that now.

"Sure," Manager Ding said, then walked out with their guests.

Gu Man and Gu Ning walked into the office afterwards.

"The National College Entrance Examination is around the corner now. When do you plan to go back to your school?" Gu Man asked.

As Gu Ning's mother, she was worried about Gu Ning's studies.

"In a couple of days," Gu Ning said.

"Your Aunt Qing has a key to our home, and I'll tell her to hire a cleaner to clean the house for you tomorrow. We haven't lived there for a long time, so there must be a thick layer of dust," Gu Man said.

"Great," Gu Ning said.

…

When it was about 5 pm, Gu Ning and Gu Man left together.

Before they left, Gu Man said, "Oh, I need to call your dad first to tell him not to pick me up today."

Gu Man didn't drive, and Tang Yunfan would come to pick her up once he was free even though she had a personal chauffeur.

Gu Ning beamed at Gu Man and Gu Man flushed a little.

She turned her head and went to call Tang Yunfan at once.

"Man, are you off work now?" Tang Yunfan said in a very gentle voice, which surprised a director sitting in front of him.

Chairman Tang was always wearing a serious face at work, but he looked totally different when talking to his wife.

"Ningning's back, and she's with me now. I'll go back home with her, so you don't need to pick me up today," Gu Man said.

"Sure, see you then," Tang Yunfan said.

After that, Gu Man went back with Gu Ning.

However, when they were walking out of this shopping mall, they heard a loud noise not far from them. Gu Ning and Gu Man looked over and found a group of people surrounding a sportswear shop.

Gu Ning had no intention to watch the drama, but she suddenly heard a familiar name.

"Ningning!" Gu Man wanted to stop Gu Ning.

"Mom, it's fine. We can have a look," Gu Ning said.

Gu Man had to follow Gu Ning up.

"Feng Pinghui, how could you divorce me for this woman? Do you want to raise another man's son? He's a bastard!" Lu Qiuting yelled at Feng Pinghui.

Once Feng Pinghui found out that Wang Zesheng was his biological son, he divorced Lu Qiuting.

He told her that he knew that she had set Wang Yunping up, but didn't tell her that Wang Zesheng was his biological son in order to protect Wang Zesheng.

After the divorce, Lu Qiuting was in a very bad mood, and she wanted to relax by shopping at this shopping mall. Accidentally, she ran into Feng Pinghui and Wang Yunping. Wang Yunping's son even called Feng Pinghui, father.

She didn't know that Wang Zesheng was Feng Pinghui's biological son, so she thought that Wang Zesheng called Feng Pinghui his father because of Wang Yunping.

Feng Pinghui seemed to be in a very good mood, which she had never seen before in their marriage. So Lu Qiuting got jealous.

"Lu Qiuting, watch your language! Zesheng isn't a bastard. He's my son, and he's older than your son. He is the heir of the Feng family!" Feng Pinghui argued in anger.

He cared a lot about Wang Zesheng, even though Wang Zesheng just accepted him.

Because he loved Wang Yunping, he thought that their son was more important than his son with Lu Qiuting. Moreover, Wang Zesheng was more academically inclined and reasonable than Lu Qiuting's son.

Although Wang Yunping was still unwilling to marry Feng Pinghui, Wang Yunping already agreed to let Wang Zesheng join the Feng family.

Once Wang Zesheng joined the Feng family, his family name would be changed to Feng, and he would become the heir of the Feng family.

"What? He's your son?" Lu Qiuting rounded her eyes in shock.

Chapter 1176 The Feng Family"s Family Affairs

Wang Yunping was already pregnant with Feng Pinghui's son when she left him? How is it possible? If this boy is really Feng Pinghui's son, he��ll replace my son as the heir of the Feng family! No, no, I can't allow it to happen."Impossible! Pingjie is the sole heir of the Feng family, and this boy is simply a bastard…" Lu Qiuting shouted.

In fact, it was quite obvious that Wang Zesheng closely resembled Feng Pinghui, but Lu Qiuting refused to admit it.

"Enough!" Before Lu Qiuting could finish, Feng Pinghui interrupted her, because he was afraid that Wang Yunping would feel embarrassed.

Wang Yunping indeed felt quite embarrassed as it was in public.

After all, it wasn't easy for her to move on after being through so much during the past years.

She didn't know whether it was a good thing that Feng Pinghui appeared all of a sudden. If she was alone, she wouldn't agree to meet him again, but she already had his son.

She agreed to let Wang Zesheng acknowledge his roots and ancestors, so he could receive better education. However, it was unavoidable for her son to have conflict with Lu Qiuting���s son.

Even though Feng Pinghui promised to take good care of Wang Zesheng, it was difficult for him to do that all the time.

Feng Pinghui's father also wanted Wang Zesheng to join the Feng family, but Feng Pinghui's father was too old to take care of Wang Zesheng. Therefore, Wang Yunping hesitated over whether she should go to the Feng family along with Wang Zesheng.

"Lu Qiuting, I divorced you because of your own bad behaviour, not because of Yunping. If it hadn't been for you, Yunping wouldn't have suffered so much during the past few years. You should disappear now, or I'll turn to the law for help!" Feng Pinghui threatened.

At the beginning, onlookers had sympathy for Lu Qiuting, but then began to side with Feng Pinghui.

Everyone looked at Lu Qiuting with hatred.

"You…" Lu Qiuting was astonished and closed her mouth at once. She had indeed broken the law by setting Wang Yunping up that year. If Feng Pinghui wasn't kind, she could have been put in jail.

If she didn't want to end up in prison she couldn't annoy Feng Pinghui. However, she was reluctant to accept reality.

"Pinghui, please, I'm begging you. Pingjie grew up in the Feng family and he should be its heir!" Lu Qiuting almost cried. She only wanted her son to take over the Feng family's wealth.

"You're an outsider now, and you have no say in the Feng family's family affairs," Feng Pinghui said.

In his eyes, Wang Zesheng was the sole heir of the Feng family. He would do his best to train Wang Zesheng too.

"Pinghui!" Lu Qiuting was unwilling to leave.

"Disappear, now!" Feng Pinghui lost his patience.

Wang Yunping didn't want to see Lu Qiuting again because of what Lu Qiuting had done to her, but she still tolerated it.

Actually, Lu Qiuting wasn't put in jail partially because Wang Yunping was very kind.

Although she hated Lu Qiuting, so many years had passed, and it would damage the Feng family's reputation if the dirty secret was exposed.

"Qiuting, let's go now!" A woman beside Lu Qiuting pulled her. Lu Qiuting already divorced Feng Pinghui, and Feng Pinghui also had ammunition against her, so she shouldn't offend Feng Pinghui again.

Lu Qiuting was afraid of Feng Pinghui now, so she had to leave with her friend.

…

Once the drama was over, the onlookers all dispersed.

Because of Lu Qiuting's sudden appearance, Feng Pinghui lost interest in shopping, but he still needed to comfort Wang Yunping and Wang Zesheng.

On the way back home, Gu Man said, "I heard some of my customers talking about Feng Pinghui these days. They said Feng Pinghui got a divorce all of a sudden, and they saw him hanging out with another woman and a boy. They all believed that he had betrayed his wife, but unexpectedly it was Lu Qiuting's fault."

The Feng family was a rich family in this city, and news about it went abroad soon.

Gu Ning didn't know much about it, because she had only focused on dealing with Feng Xueqin back then.

"If I guess correctly, the woman who stood by Feng Pinghui's side must be his ex girlfriend. Lu Qiuting schemed against her before marrying Feng Pinghui. However, Feng Pinghui still loves his ex girlfriend."

"He treats their son so well precisely because he still loves his ex girlfriend. The same thing goes for my father. Mom, my father loves you deeply, so he's willing to accept me," Gu Ning said.

Hearing that, Gu Man flushed again.

"We're talking about them. Why did you suddenly mention this?" Gu Man said.

Gu Ning put on a broad smile. She knew that her mother felt a little shy.

Chapter 1177 Have Another Child

Even though Gu Man felt shy, Gu Ning was going to talk about something that might make her feel more nervous."Mom, you and my dad are still young. Why don't you seize this time and have another child?" Gu Ning said.

She didn't mind having a younger brother or sister who was 20 years younger than her at all. "I'm going to the capital soon, and I'll be busy dealing with my business in the future, so I don't have much time to stay by your side."

In addition, Gu Ning's body was still Gu Man and Tang Yunfan's daughter, but her soul wasn't. Although Gu Ning treated them as her own parents, she still hoped that they could have a child which completely belonged to them.

Gu Man flushed red at once. "We already have you, and we don't want to have another child at such an old age."

Gu Man cared about Gu Ning's feelings very much. Although they were able to have another child, Gu Ning was already 19, and the age gap between two children was too large.

Gu Man was worried that Gu Ning might dislike a younger brother or sister who was too much younger than her.

Gu Ning understood Gu Man's worries.

"I don't think there is anything wrong with it. You and dad aren't old at all, and you're taking my special medicine to improve your body condition too. I think you're even stronger and healthier than people in their 20s," Gu Ning said.

Gu Man hesitated for a while. "Well…"

"Mom, you don't need to worry about me. I don't care, and I really want you and dad to have another child," Gu Ning said.

Since Gu Ning said that, Gu Man couldn't reject.

"Alright, I'll talk about it with your dad later," Gu Man said in the end.

Gu Ning smiled and decided to talk about it with Tang Yunfan later too. Gu Man needed Tang Yunfan's support as well.

…

When Gu Ning and Gu Man got back to the Tang family's house, all the young people were out for work, and Tang Haifeng was alone inside.

Master Lei had invited Tang Haifeng to visit the Lei family, but Gu Ning was coming back today, so Tang Haifeng decided to stay home.

Once Gu Ning's car drove in, Tang Haifeng saw it from the living room. He stood up and walked out without delay.

"Hi, father," Gu Man greeted him.

"Welcome home!" Tang Haifeng beamed.

"Hi, grandpa!" Gu Ning greeted Tang Haifeng.

"Ningning, I haven't seen you for a long time! Why are you so busy every day?" Tang Haifeng complained.

In fact, he cared about his granddaughter's health, and he also wanted to spend more time with his granddaughter, who just joined his family. He was old now, and all of his grandchildren had grown up and left him.

Even though he complained, he still felt very proud of Gu Ning.

"Well, grandpa, don't you know your granddaughter is too outstanding to waste time on playing? I'm busy every day in order to actualize my dream," Gu Ning said with a smile.

"Ha-ha, you're right!" Tang Haifeng nodded.

"Um, grandpa, if you really feel bored at home, I have a good idea to solve this problem," Gu Ning said and approached Tang Haifeng's ears.

Tang Haifeng was curious. "What is it?"

"You can tell my parents to have another child for you to play with," Gu Ning said.

Gu Man wasn't around them, so she didn't hear it.

Tang Haifeng's eyes lit up at once. He actually had that idea too, but was worried about Gu Ning's feelings. To his surprise, Gu Ning proposed it herself.

"Do you really think your parents can have another child?" Tang Haifeng asked.

Gu Ning smiled. She understood that her grandfather wanted another grandchild as well.

"Sure, and I just talked about it with my mother," Gu Ning said.

After that, Gu Ning told Tang Haifeng what she had said to Gu Man.

Chapter 1178 Turn to Gu Ning for Help

"Great, very well!" Tang Haifeng was pleased.Before long, Jiang Lihua got home, and she was happy to see Gu Ning too. "Hi, Ningning!"

"Nice to see you, Aunt Lihua," Gu Ning said.

Tang Yunfan came back a while later, but Tang Yunhang was busy that night so he wouldn't join them for dinner.

Tang Jiayang had also already gone back to Country Y.

"Hi, everyone, I'm back!" Tang Jiakai's voice suddenly sounded.

It wasn't a weekend today, so they were surprised that Tang Jiakai was back home.

"Why did you come back home today?" Jiang Lihua asked with confusion.

"I heard that Ningning would be home, so I came back too," Tang Jiakai said.

"How did you know?" Gu Ning asked.

"Grandpa told me," Tang Jiakai replied.

"If I didn't tell him Ningning will be home today, he wouldn't agree to come back!" Tang Haifeng said.

Tang Haifeng called Tang Jiakai today and told him to dine at home tonight, but Tang Jiakai made an excuse and rejected it at first. Afterwards, Tang Haifeng told him that Gu Ning would be home for dinner, and Tang Jiakai agreed at once.

Tang Haifeng was a little displeased because of that.

Jiang Lihua turned to look at Tang Jiakai and blamed him for doing that.

Tang Jiakai then explained with a serious face. "I did have an appointment with my friends, but I need to talk to Ningning about something, so I came back. It's very important."

Hearing that, Tang Haifeng asked, "What do you want to talk to Ningning about?"

The others also looked at Tang Jiakai for the answer.

"One of my close friends broke his leg when he played basketball, but their team is going to attend the final round next week. If they can win the game, they can go abroad and take part in the international basketball competition for college students. It's a great chance for them to get into the national team. My friend is a key member of their team, and I hoped that Ningning could help him," Tang Jiakai said.

"Well, since he's a close friend of yours, I'm willing to help. We can go visit him after dinner," Gu Ning said.

Tang Jiakai was a member of the Tang family too, so she would definitely help him.

"Thanks!" Tang Jiakai was thrilled.

The Tang family was supportive, especially because the person was Tang Jiakai's close friend.

…

During the meal, Tang Jiakai seemed impatient, because he ached to visit his friend, but he didn't urge Gu Ning.

Gu Ning noticed his behavior, so she sped up eating.

After dinner, Gu Ning left with Tang Jiakai.

She stopped at the door all of a sudden and turned around, then said to Tang Yunfan, "Oh, dad, I really want a younger brother or sister, so you and mom can work on it without any worries."

Tang Yunfan was shocked when he heard that.

Gu Ning walked out before he could say anything.

Gu Man flushed crimson again.

"D-Did I hear correctly?" Tang Yunfan still couldn't believe his ears.

"Of course, Ningning just told me that she wants you and Man to have another child when she's absent from beside you," Tang Haifeng said. "She's going to study in the capital after all, and she's afraid that you'll feel lonely."

Hearing that, Tang Yunfan was happier. He actually wanted another child too, but was afraid that Gu Ning might disagree. Since Gu Ning said it herself, he wouldn't be worried any longer.

"I think it's a good idea. Both Jiayang and Jiakai have grown up and left us. Our home has been too quiet for too long! We need a baby to break the silence," Jiang Lihua said with excitement.

The Tang family valued familial relationships above anything else.

…

Because Gu Ning needed to go to Huafu Hills later, she drove her own car.

Tang Jiakai asked Gu Ning the moment they were in the car, "Do you really want a brother and sister who is so much younger than you?"

It wasn't easy for two children to get along with each other if there was a huge age gap.

Moreover, the Tang family was a super-rich family. If Gu Ning had a younger brother or sister, her family wealth would be divided into several parts.

Tang Jiakai would dislike having a brother or sister who was much younger than him. He thought that it was irresponsible for parents to have another child at an old age without their first child's agreement.

Luckily, both Tang Yunfan and Gu Man weren't very old, and Gu Ning was super-rich, so she didn't mind sharing the family wealth with her brother or sister.

She cared more about her parents' happiness.

Chapter 1179 A Traitor

She didn't think her parents would ignore her just because they had another child.Tang Jiakai cared about Gu Ning's feelings, which is why he asked her that question.

"I do want them to have another child, because I think they aren't very old and they're very healthy. I'm going to study in the capital and I'll be busy dealing with my businesses too, so they won't be lonely if they have another child by their side," Gu Ning said.

Tang Jiakai nodded. Since Gu Ning didn't mind, he would love to see the Tang family had another member.

"Oh, can you tell me more details about what happened to your friend? I don't think it's as simple as you said," Gu Ning asked.

Tang Jiakai put on a serious expression at once.

"You're right. It's not simple at all," he said.

His close friend's name was Teng Xiaoyu.

It wasn't an accident that Teng Xiaoyu was injured, it was a trap.

There was a large-scale college basketball competition being held recently, and it was the selection of college basketball teams across the country. The finals would be held the next week, and there were six basketball teams competing for the champion.

Teng Xiaoyu's team would represent City B.

Their team gained this chance out of hundreds of basketball teams in City B, so it was obvious that they were very outstanding.

However, they had a traitor in their team and he knocked Teng Xiaoyu down during their training, causing Teng Xiaoyu to break his leg. Although Teng Xiaoyu wasn't disabled, it would take a long time for him to recover. They didn't have enough time for it.

Luckily, they caught the traitor and forced him to tell them the truth. It turned out that the traitor was threatened by someone from another basketball team. Teng Xiaoyu was the most noticeable member in their team, so he became the target.

Even though Teng Xiaoyu was injured, he still let the traitor go, because they had been teammates for years. The traitor was kicked off the team afterwards, but unfortunately they didn't have solid proof to punish the mastermind.

Because of this, Teng Xiaoyu's team was badly affected, but they didn't give up training. Instead, they trained themselves even harder in order to get revenge for Teng Xiaoyu.

"Ningning, actually I need your help for another thing," Tang Jiakai said a while later.

"What is it?" Gu Ning asked.

"We can't swallow the anger and the humiliation. Can you help us teach them a lesson? We don't want to be involved in big trouble, and I think that you can probably handle it well. If you think it's too troublesome, you can say no," Tang Jiakai said.

He turned to Gu Ning for help because he thought that Gu Ning was able to solve this problem.

"It's easy, and I can help you." Gu Ning agreed at once.

"Where are they training?" Gu Ning asked.

"All six teams are training in the Universiade Center, but every team has its own basketball room, and they're in basketball room No. 3," Tang Jiakai said.

There were 10 indoor basketball rooms in the Universiade Center, which were used for secret training.

"Do they train every day?" Gu Ning asked again.

"Yeah, they train every day from 9 am to 12 pm and 2 pm to 6 pm. They also dine in the dining hall inside it," Tang Jiakai replied.

"Strangers aren't allowed to enter the basketball rooms, so I'll go to the Universiade Center during their break," Gu Ning said. "I'll try to have a game with them to teach them a lesson."

"Do you want to play basketball with them?" Tang Jiakai was shocked.

"Why not? I'm strong and good at kung fu. It's easy for me to play basketball. There is no way that they could grab the ball away from me!" Gu Ning laughed.

She planned to make them suffer some minor injuries.

"That'll be great! Thank you so much for your help, Ningning," Tang Jiakai said.

…

Teng Xiaoyu was in the hospital now, so they were going to visit him there.

Except for Teng Xiaoyu, there were eight men in the ward as well. They were members of the same basketball team.

There were 10 people in their team, and only nine were left now that the traitor was chased out. Because Teng Xiaoyu was injured, only eight of them could go on the court.

Five basketball players were enough in the competition, but some of them might be injured or break the rules during the fierce game, so they needed substitutes.

"Hi, Jiakai."

"Hey, man!"

The second Tang Jiakai opened the door, they turned to look at him with one accord.

Tang Jiakai was Teng Xiaoyu's close friend, so they hung out often.

"I-Is this Goddess Gu?"

When they saw Gu Ning behind Tang Jiakai, they were all surprised.

They recognized Gu Ning because Tang Jiakai frequently showed off his relationship with Gu Ning.

Chapter 1180 We Shouldn"t Have Doubted You

They had heard a lot about Gu Ning, so they all admired her. Nearly half of them were Gu Ning's fans."Hi, nice to meet you, I'm Gu Ning." Gu Ning greeted them.

"Nice to meet you too, Miss Gu." They all smiled happily.

However, they were only aware that Gu Ning was a successful businesswoman, and they didn't know that Gu Ning was able to cure people too.

They thought that Gu Ning simply came with Tang Jiakai to visit his friend.

"Well, I need to tell you something. My sister can help Xiaoyu, and allow Xiaoyu to have a full recovery within several days," Tang Jiakai said.

"What?"

They were surprised, and couldn't believe it.

The doctor said that it would take at least half a month for Teng Xiaoyu to leave the hospital, but Gu Ning could help him do that within a few days?

They admitted that Gu Ning wasn't an ordinary girl, but they couldn't believe that she could cure people.

"Jiakai, you must be joking!" a person said.

"I'm not. Ningning cured my grandfather's heart disease before," Tang Jiakai said.

Hearing that, everyone was shocked again.

Heart disease was very difficult to cure, but Gu Ning had cured Master Tang of it.

They turned to look at Gu Ning again in surprise. However, because it was beyond belief, they still had doubts.

"I understand that it sounds unbelievable, but I can treat you right now if you're willing to accept my treatment. My medicine is very special and rare. There are countless people who want to buy it at a high price," Gu Ning said to Teng Xiaoyu.

She agreed to cure Teng Xiaoyu, but she wouldn't force Teng Xiaoyu to accept her treatment.

"I trust you, and I'm willing to accept your treatment," Teng Xiaoyu said at once. As long as there was a chance that he could recover, he would have a try.

Since Teng Xiaoyu agreed, other people said nothing.

Gu Ning then took off her backpack and handed two porcelain bottles to Teng Xiaoyu. "Take a pill three times a day, and apply the liquid to your injury every day. I promise that you can leave this bed tomorrow and go back to normal after three days."

If Teng Xiaoyu took and applied the medicine at the same time, he could recover sooner.

The others in the room were astonished. Even Tang Jiakai, who knew that Gu Ning was very incredible, was shocked.

Teng Xiaoyu took a power crystal without delay, and he felt cold and comfortable. After that, he applied some liquid medicine to the injury on his knee.

One of his teammates wanted to clean the wound for him, but was stopped by Gu Ning. There was no need for Teng Xiaoyu to clean the wound at all.

The second the liquid touched his injury, he felt like something was different and rounded his eyes in shock.

"Wow, I can't…" He didn't know what to say all of a sudden.

"How do you feel?"

"How is it?"

Teng Xiaoyu's friends asked him in a hurry. Teng Xiaoyu did his best to calm himself down and said, "I-I feel my injury is a little itchy and cold. It isn't as painful as before either."

"Really?" His teammates were greatly surprised and excited.

"Miss Gu, thank you, thank you so much!" Teng Xiaoyu thanked Gu Ning. He believed that he could make a full recovery within several days just as Gu Ning just told him.

"You're welcome," Gu Ning said.

"I told you that Ningning is unbelievable and that she can cure Xiaoyu!" Tang Jiakai said.

He was actually a little displeased when his friends doubted Gu Ning.

The others understood that Tang Jiakai was slightly annoyed by their attitude just then, so they felt embarrassed.

One of them apologized to Gu Ning without hesitation, "Miss Gu, I'm sorry. We shouldn't have doubted you."

"Please accept our apologies," the others said at the same time.

It was understandable that they doubted Gu Ning before they knew her ability of curing people, but they still thought that they should apologize to her.

"You don't need to apologize to me. I understand your worries seeing as we aren't familiar with each other. I don't mind it at all," Gu Ning said.

Her kindness left a better impression on them.

They hadn't met Gu Ning before, but now they found that she was very easy-going. In addition, she didn't act or pretend in front of them.

Although they had just spent a short time with Gu Ning, they felt like Gu Ning was tolerant and gentle.
