Chapter 621 The Gu Family

"F*ck you, bitch!" the man even swore at her.

In fact, Gu Ning had noticed them, but she thought that the man was Gu Anna's friend. However, to her astonishment, he slapped Gu Anna.

If the man slapped a stranger, she wouldn't get involved, but Gu Anna was her friend's friend after all, so she couldn't stand aside. Therefore, Gu Ning stood up at once. She didn't say anything, walking towards them.

Xu Qinyin and the others thought that she was going to the ladies' room, so they didn't pay much attention to her.

"How dare you!" Gu Anna was so mad that she grabbed a bottle on the nearby table and hit the man over the head without hesitation. Although Gu Anna looked weak, she wasn't a weak woman at all. Instead, she would fight back once she was treated unfairly.

Nobody thought that Gu Anna was going to attack the man, and the man was hit right on the head. With a loud crash the bottle broke and the man's head immediately started bleeding

Everyone was shocked, and the sound also attracted the attention of Xu Qinyin's group.

"Damn it! Anna is in danger!" Xu Qinyin said standing up, then ran to Gu Anna, followed by Jiang Ruiqin and Tang Qingyang. "Are you alright?" The man's friends ran to him too.

"F*ck! How dare you hit me!" The man was annoyed, and attacked Gu Anna. However, when he had just raised his hand, his hand was grabbed by a slim, beautiful girl. The girl looked very pretty, but was also cold, which scared him. Besides, this girl was so powerful and he couldn't move at all.

Without delay, Gu Ning broke the man's wrist and kicked the back of his knee. The man abruptly knelt down right before Gu Anna.

The scene shocked everyone in the bar again.

"How dare you hit Lord Lin!" Lord Lin's two friends stepped forward, trying to attack Gu Ning but was stopped by Jiang Ruiqin and Tang Qingyang.

"Let me go!" They struggled and argued loudly, but couldn't get rid of the control of Jiang Ruiqin and Tang Qingyang.

"What happened?" Xu Qinyin asked with concern.

"The man tried to force me to drink a shot and I refused, so he slapped me!" Gu Anna said in anger. She was born in the Gu family, and nobody dared to humiliate her like that.

In the capital, there was only one super-rich family called Gu.

Hearing that and seeing the palm mark on Gu Anna's face, Xu Qinyin was in a rage. She didn't hesitate to slap the man several times and said, "Who do you think you are!"

"Stop it! Do you know who he is? He is…" A friend of the man tried to stop Xu Qinyin.

However, Xu Qinyin interrupted him with impatience and said with disdain, "I don't care!" Saying that, she slapped the man once more.

At this moment, Song Nan walked to them after hearing the fight.

"Song Nan, if you don't support Lord Lin today, your bar will be closed!" Another friend of the man who was the so-called Lord Lin said with obvious arrogance, like he was the king.

Song Nan, instead, ignored him. He coldly stared at the man and said, "Lord Lin, don't be so arrogant. Your family could be punished because of you."

Song Nan didn't tell them who Gu Anna was, but it was quite obvious that Gu Anna came from a family that was much more powerful than their families.

Hearing that, Lord Lin's two friends shut their mouths at once. As for Lord Lin, he didn't have the strength to resist now.

"Send him to the hospital. If he wants to get revenge on me, I'm here waiting for him," Song Nan said.

Lord Lin's friends supported him to stand up, then escaped. Gu Anna didn't say anything, but followed her friends, walking back to their seats.

Other customers in the bar also kept on drinking and enjoying the music. In order to comfort them, Song Nan gave everyone 20% off.

Xu Qinyin and her friends, however, left the bar a short while later.

It wasn't early when they walked out of the bar, so they decided that they should go home. in cars

Xu Qinyin and Gu Anna drove their own cars here. Although they drank, they didn't drink a lot, so they drove home on their own.

"Let me send you home!" Xu Qinyin said to Gu Ning. However, before Gu Ning could answer, Jiang Ruiqin said first, "I live in the same community as Miss Gu. If you don't mind, I can drive you home, Miss Gu."

"Of course not, thanks." Gu Ning didn't know that Jiang Ruiqin admired her from afar, so she agreed.

"Great!" Xu Qinyin said.

After that, Gu Ning along with Tang Qingyang got into Jiang Ruiqin's car.

"Miss Gu, which high school are you studying in?" Jiang Ruiqin asked.

Although he still didn't know much about Gu Ning, after reading the news about her, he noticed her age.

"The No.3 High School in City F," Gu Ning said.

"City F? You don't live in the capital?" Hearing that, Jiang Ruiqin felt surprised as well as disappointed. If Gu Ning didn't live in the capital, he wouldn't see her often.

"Yes," Gu Ning answered.

"Which college is your aim?" Jiang Ruiqin asked again.

"The Capital University," Gu Ning said.

Hearing that, Jiang Ruiqin relaxed. As long as Gu Ning was going to stay in the capital, he would have more chances to meet her.

Chapter 622 Does She Like Tang Qingyang?

"Oh, why don't we exchange phone numbers? You can turn to me for help if you encounter any trouble in the capital. You're Qinyin's friend after all, so you're my friend too," Jiang Ruiqin said kindly. He seemed calm, but was actually very nervous because he was afraid that Gu Ning would reject him.

Tang Qingyang, who was Jiang Ruiqin's close friend, also noticed that Jiang Ruiqin liked Gu Ning. He had never seen Jiang Ruiqin being so kind and gentle to a girl when they met for the first time.

"Sure, tell me your phone number." Gu Ning agreed, because Jiang Ruiqin was Jiang Zhongyu's grandson and she would meet him in the future.

Hearing that, Jiang Ruiqin finally relaxed, then told Gu Ning his number. Gu Ning called him, then hung up at once.

"Mr. Tang, why don't we exchange phone numbers too?" Gu Ning took the initiative to ask for Tang Qingyang's number because she knew that she was going to cooperate with him.

Jiang Ruiqin, however, felt upset, and couldn't help wondering whether Gu Ning liked Tang Qingyang. Tang Qingyang also had the same idea, so he hesitated. Although he thought that Gu Ning was very attractive, he gave up once he found out that Jiang Ruiqin liked her. However, he felt shy to reject Gu Ning, so he agreed.

Gu Ning didn't know what they were thinking. If she knew, she would explain to them that she already had a boyfriend.

After a while of silence, Jiang Ruiqin asked Tang Qingyang, "Qingyang, when will you start to work in the company?".

"Tomorrow,��� Tang Qingyang said.

"Are you ready for it?" Jiang Ruiqin asked.

"Yeah," Tang Qingyang said lightly. Although he sounded relaxed, Gu Ning sensed that he was quite stressed. Although Tang Qingyang didn't say it aloud, Gu Ning understood that he was going to fight on the battlefield.

Before long, Gu Ning found that someone was stalking them. She used her Jade Eyes and saw a familiar face in the car behind them. She had met him in her previous incarnation.

The man was in his early thirties, and worked for Tang Bingsen. Gu Ning had seen him a few times in her previous incarnation. Without a doubt, Gu Ning understood that he had to be stalking Tang Qingyang. However, she didn't know the reason why Tang Bingsen sent him to follow Tang Qingyang.

Gu Ning actually didn't know his real name, but people all called him Lao Gui. Besides, Lao Gui was very good at fighting. Although Gu Ning wasn't afraid of him, she was worried that Tang Qingyang might not be his match. Therefore, Gu Ning had to do something

"Mr. Jiang, how is your driving skill?" Gu Ning asked.

"Not bad." Jiang Ruiqin thought that Gu Ning was just chatting with him; he didn't know that someone was stalking them.

"Can you see the black ORV (1. Off Road Vehicle.] behind us? It's been following us for a long time. I think someone is stalking us," Gu Ning said.

"What?" Hearing that, both Jiang Ruiqin and Tang Qingyang were surprised, then displeased.

Tang Qingyang turned back, and saw a car following not far behind them. Even though they had made several turns, the car still followed them.

At this moment, they were sure that someone was stalking them.

"I think I'm the target," Tang Qingyang said. Although he said it with doubt, he was very sure that he was the target, because he clearly knew that he was in a very dangerous situation now.

"What should we do?" Jiang Ruiqin asked in a deep voice.

"Are you confident that you can get rid of him? If you're not, let me do it," Gu Ning said with a serious face.

A touch of embarrassment flashed by Jiang Ruiqin's face. "I don't think I can do it. Can you?" He wasn't doubting Gu Ning's ability, but he was worried about her safety.

"I can," Gu Ning said with confidence.

Ever since Jiang Ruiqin got to know what Gu Ning had done, he had great admiration for Gu Ning and he trusted her. "No problem. Let me stop it by the roadside first."

Saying that, he stopped the car. When they stopped, the car behind them stopped too.

There was a lot of traffic on the road. Jiang Ruiqin and Tang Qingyang would probably never have noticed it if Gu Ning hadn't told them.

"In order not to arouse their suspicion, Mr. Tang, please go buy several bottles of water. Mr. Jiang, you can stay in the car and directly moved to the rear seats, and I'll replace you," Gu Ning said.

"No problem!

Jiang Ruiqin and Tang Qingyang agreed and started to take action.

Tang Qingyang who was sitting in the front passenger's seat got out of the car and walked to a nearby convenience store. At the same time, Jiang Ruiqin moved to the rear seats from the driver's seat and was replaced by Gu Ning. Before long, Tang Qingyang was back and got in the car again.

Lao Gui didn't notice any change from behind.

Afterwards, Gu Ning reminded them to be prepared, and then she started the car.

In the beginning, she drove it at the regular speed, then suddenly accelerated it. She didn't even bother to slow down when there was a lot of traffic, and she could always masterfully overtake other cars on the road.

Other drivers on the road all noticed a black private car smoothly moving at a high speed among the traffic. They kept swearing, but had to admit that the driver of the black private car was really skillful.

Jiang Ruiqin and Tang Qingyang were both shocked. Even Lao Gui was astonished, and thought that he might have been discovered.

Thinking of that, Lao Gui stopped following, in case he would expose himself. After all, he had only received the order to follow Tang Qingyang and see what Tang Qingyang was doing and whom Tang Qingyang was hanging out with. There was no need for him to attack Tang Qingyang right now.

Seeing that Lao Gui stop following, Gu Ning and the others were a little surprised, but didn't think further.

Lao Gui called Tang Bingsen the moment he stopped following Tang Qingyang, and reported on what had just happened.

At that moment, Tang Bingsen was having sex with his mistress, Tian Feifei, in a big house.

Tang Bingsen was an aged old man after all, and his body was already out of shape, while Tian Feifei was young and hot. However, she had to sell her body for money and fame, and even pretended to have orgasms when Tang Bingsen penetrated her to please him.

Tang Bingsen was in his late fifties now, and he easily ran out of strength.'''

Chapter 623 Leng Shaoting Comes Back Overnight

Men always wanted to prove their manhood in bed, and refused to admit that they were aging. Therefore, even though Tang Bingsen clearly knew that he was already old and out of strength, he still didn't want his women to despise him.

However, right at this moment, Tang Bingsen's phone rang. He was mad about being interrupted, but he knew that it had to be something important, otherwise his subordinates wouldn't dare call him when he was free. So although Tang Bingsen was displeased, he had to take it.

Tian Feifei, instead, couldn't care less about it, because she was always acting in bed with Tang Bingsen. In fact, she thought that her agent was much better than Tang Bingsen. Tian Feifei maintained a secret sexual relationship with her agent, but she didn't have the right to have a boyfriend because of Tang Bingsen. If Tang Bingsen found out that she was having sex with another man, he would abandon her after torturing her. However, Tian Feifei wasn't worried about it if the man was her agent.

Anyway, Tang Bingsen assigned the agent to her in person, and the agent was very loyal to Tang Bingsen, except he was secretly sleeping with his mistress, so Tang Bingsen trusted him very much.

The agent also clearly knew that Tang Bingsen was just paying Tian Feifei for sex. If Tang Bingsen had the intention to marry Tian Feifei, he wouldn't have dared to sleep with her.

Tian Feifei also wasn't afraid that her agent would expose their secret, because Tang Bingsen definitely wouldn't let her agent get away with it once it was exposed. Therefore, Tian Feifei and her agent shared a dangerous secret, and they had to protect each other because of it.

"What?" Tang Bingsen sounded very displeased. No man would be pleased if he was interrupted during sex. Lao Gui also sensed that, so he was more cautious. "Boss, it seems that he noticed me and suddenly sped up, so I stopped following."

"What? He noticed you?" Tang Bingsen was mad upon hearing that, because he thought that he had taken Tang Qingyang lightly. Tang Bingsen told Lao Gui to keep on watching Tang Qingyang, but he had to be more careful this time.

After that, Tang Bingsen put on his clothes and was about to go home.

"Boss, don't forget to take a shower before you go home," Tian Feifei said to remind him not to be discovered by his wife.

Hearing that, Tang Bingsen walked to the bathroom at once.

At the same time, Gu Ning and the others arrived at the housing area.

Gu Ning drove the car to the front of Zone C in the housing area, but she didn't stop it right in front of Leng Shaoting's house, because she wasn't willing to let them know where she lived.

Jiang Ruiqin understood and didn't ask further.

"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Tang, thank you so much for sending me home. Bye-bye." Gu Ning got out of the car.

"You don't need to call us misters. We're friends now after all," Jiang Ruiqin said, trying to be close to Gu Ning.

"Sure. Bye-bye, Ruiqin and Qingyang," Gu Ning said, then left.

Jiang Ruiqin sat back to the driver's seat, and he didn't start the car until Gu Ning disappeared from his sight.

"What? Is she your type?" Tang Qingyang joked. Although it was a question, he already knew the answer.

"I think she's more interested in you than me," Jiang Ruiqin said with jealousy.

"Of course not!" Tang Qingyang said.

"She asked for your phone number!" Jiang Ruiqin went down a dead end.

"Maybe she thought that it was impolite to only exchange phone numbers with you," Tang Qingyang said to comfort him.

Hearing that, Jiang Ruiqin thought that it was reasonable, so he stopped complaining. When Gu Ning got home, she told K to investigate Tang Bingsen and the Tang family in the capital.

In a villa near the southern suburbs from the center of the city.

Tang Bingsen felt really tired when he got home and his wife, Ji Yijing, was still awake watching TV in the living hall. She was actually waiting for Tang Bingsen to come home.

Ji Yijing was Tang Yaxin's biological mother who had replaced Tang Aining's biological mother and became Tang Bingsen's second wife. She was already 45 years old, but looked much younger than her age. Ji Yijing didn't work, and all she was doing was taking good care of her appearance. Even so, Tang Bingsen had cheated on her many times.

In fact, Ji Yijing was aware that Tang Bingsen had mistresses, but she turned a blind eye on it, because she had once been his mistress too. She also knew that she couldn't stop him from doing it, and she enjoyed her luxurious life now. However, if there was a love child, she would do everything to kill the child.

Seeing Tang Bingsen walking in, Ji Yijing stood up at once and welcomed him home. "Hi! I've made some chicken soup for you. Have some before you go to sleep."

"Great," Tang Bingsen said, then walked to the table.

Ji Yijing immediately served the chicken soup for him. After drinking the chicken soup, they went upstairs to go to bed.

When it was midnight, Gu Ning received Leng Shaoting's call.

Leng Shaoting didn't want to bother her at midnight, but he just finished his task at this moment, and couldn't wait a second longer to call her.

"I'm in your house in the capital," Gu Ning said.

"Great! I'll be right back," Leng Shaoting said, but didn't tell her the exact time.

Gu Ning thought that Leng Shaoting would be back tomorrow afternoon. However, to her surprise, she heard the door open at 4 am from the first floor. She thought that it might be a thief, but an idea dawned on her the next second. Is Shaoting back? Thinking of that, Gu Ning ran downstairs.

When she had just reached the second-floor landing, she saw Leng Shaoting standing in the living room. When they met each other's eyes, they realized how much they missed one another. At this moment, Gu Ning lost words to describe how excited she was now. She didn't expect that he would come back overnight!

Chapter 624 Protect Yourself Well

Leng Shaoting missed Gu Ning so much that he was unwilling to wait a second longer to see her. The next second, Leng Shaoting strode upstairs and clasped Gu Ning in his arms.

"Ningning, I missed you so-so much!" Leng Shaoting said by her ear, and she felt aroused by his warm breath.

Gu Ning reached out her arms to hug his neck and looked at him with affection. "Shaoting, I missed you too!"

"How much?" Leng Shaoting asked, and he started to breathe fast.

"More than you could imagine…" Gu Ning said, and directly kissed his lips.

They kissed wildly along the way to the bedroom, and then undressed each other within seconds.

Right when Leng Shaoting pressed on Gu Ning against the bed, she suddenly noticed the injury on his chest, and was shocked.

She remembered clearly that she had never seen this injury before. Although its color became much lighter and it looked like an old injury, Gu Ning knew that it was new. Without saying anything, Gu Ning cried while staring at the injury on Leng Shaoting's chest. Her heart ached heavily for him.

Seeing that, Leng Shaoting knew that he couldn't hide it anymore.

"Ningning, don't cry. I'm fine now. Don't worry…" he said to comfort her at once.

It was the first time that Gu Ning had cried in front of Leng Shaoting, and he literally had no idea what he should do now, he just wiped the tears off her face.

Gu Ning still said nothing, because she knew that Leng Shaoting's job was dangerous and it was unavoidable to have some injuries. That was the reason why she had given Leng Shaoting bottles of power crystals. However, she still couldn't accept the fact that he was badly injured.

Gu Ning couldn't imagine the result if she hadn't prepared power crystals for him or he had run out of the power crystals. Besides, the injury was right on his chest! It must have been a very dangerous injury. If he had been shot in the heart, he could have died, no matter how many power crystals he had taken.

The effect of the power crystals was barely comparable to her power. If Leng Shaoting was really in mortal danger, she could only save his life by directly putting her power into his body.

"Ningning." Leng Shaoting was more anxious because Gu Ning remained silent, but cried the entire time. He knew that Gu Ning felt heartbroken seeing the injury on his chest so he held her tightly to make her believe that he was fine now.

He also felt guilty that Gu Ning cried for him. He didn't want to be injured either, but he was just a human being. If it was possible, he didn't want to be injured at all in a war or fierce gun fight, so that Gu Ning wouldn't be worried. He felt sad too, when Gu Ning was sad.

Gu Ning stopped crying a while later, and raised her hand to touch Leng Shaoting's injury secretly putting her power into his body.

Although Leng Shaoting was fine after taking the power crystals, Gu Ning still wanted his injury to heal as soon as possible. However, Gu Ning just healed the inside of the injury and left its surface the same in order to not arouse Leng Shaoting's suspicion.

Since it already happened, Gu Ning didn't want to say much, but reminded him to be careful the next time. "You must protect yourself well the next time."

"I will. I promise," Leng Shaoting said.

Even so, Gu Ning still felt sad in her heart, because both of them knew that it was a lie. As long as he was a soldier in the special forces, he was living with danger.

The next morning, Jiang Ruiqin got up to run at 6 am in order to "encounter" Gu Ning. In case Tang Qingyang would interrupt them, he even forbade Tang Qingyang to appear with him.

Unfortunately, he didn't see Gu Ning during the whole morning, which disappointed him.

He wanted to call Gu Ning, but was afraid that he would disturb her. Most importantly, they just met each other, and weren't familiar, so he felt shy to call her now.

Jiang Ruiqin had never been afraid of anything before, but it all changed after he met Gu Ning.

Since Gu Ning was absent, Jiang Ruiqin didn't run for long and soon went home.

"What happened? You seem so upset," Tang Qingyang asked Jiang Ruiqin, although he already had the answer.

"Nothing," Jiang Ruiqin lied.

"Fine." Since Jiang Ruiqin wasn't willing to say it, Tang Qingyang wouldn't ask further.

Leng Shaoting hadn't had a good rest for a long time because of his task, so he had a long deep sleep. He didn't wake up until 9 am, and Gu Ning was still in her sweet dreams.

He fixed his eyes which were full of love on Gu Ning, and felt like he had regained a priceless treasure.

Gu Ning woke up a while later, and felt a little uneasy when Leng Shaoting stared straight at her.

"Um, I'm a little hungry," Gu Ning said.

"Are you? Let me help." Leng Shaoting wore an evil smile and pressed on Gu Ning.

"Hey!" Gu Ning pushed him away. "I want food, not you." Why were men always thinking about sex?

Leng Shaoting stopped flirting with Gu Ning, and said with love in his voice, "Sleep for a while longer, and I'll go cook for you."

Gu Ning indeed needed more rest now, because she was so exhausted after the wild sex last night.

Leng Shaoting got up at once, and took a shower before he went to go grocery shopping.

When Gu Ning woke up again, it was already 11:30 am, and Leng Shaoting had almost finished cooking too.

Gu Ning left the bed and took a shower. When she walked out the dishes were already on the table.

"Come on. Have a seat," Leng Shaoting said to her.

Chapter 625 Goddess Su

Gu Ning was starving and enjoyed the meal without hesitation. Leng Shaoting began to eat as well, and put a lot of food into Gu Ning's bowl.

When Gu Ning was almost full, she slowed down and said, "I met Master Jiang, Master Xu and your grandpa at the antique street yesterday."

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was surprised and panicked a little.

"And?" Leng Shaoting asked. Actually, he wanted to ask whether his grandpa had recognized Gu Ning, but he was afraid that Gu Ning might find out that he already told his grandpa that he had a girlfriend.

Gu Ning didn't notice anything unusual with Leng Shaoting, and said, "They bought some real antiques at my store. I didn't want to charge them at the beginning, but they weren't willing to take them for free, so I told them to pay me a hundred thousand yuan each."

Leng Shaoting nodded.

"Oh, how is Uncle Tang now?" he asked with concern.

"He's awake now," Gu Ning said.

"Glad to know that!" Leng Shaoting was relieved. If Tang Yunfan couldn't wake up, Gu Ning and Gu Man wouldn't live a happy life.

"What's your plan today?" Leng Shaoting asked.

"The flagship store of Colaine is going to open tomorrow, so I want to have a look at the products today," Gu Ning said.

"I'll go with you," Leng Shaoting said.

After the meal, Leng Shaoting told Gu Ning to have a rest, and he went to wash dishes himself.

"Well, it's really good to have a boyfriend who's good at cooking and housework, so that I can eat and sleep well," Gu Ning said and complimented Leng Shaoting.

"Eat well, and you can sleep well!" Leng Shaoting said and the stress was on the word of sleep.

Gu Ning flushed and ignored Leng Shaoting, walking upstairs. She went back to the bedroom and checked her phone. There was a missed call from Xu Qinyin, so she called her back at once.

The moment Xu Qinyin answered Gu Ning's call, she was very excited. "Gu Ning, the skincare products you sent me are so-so good! I've never used such a set of effective products before. My skin is very smooth and shiny now!" Women all cared about their appearances.

"Oh, my mother even wanted to steal the set from me, but she failed. Ha-ha!" Xu Qinyin said with great pride.

It seemed that Xu Qinyin's mother also became a loyal customer of Gu Ning's skincare products now.

Hearing the good news, Gu Ning smiled with satisfaction. She was confident that her products would soon be popular!

"When will your skincare products be put on the market? My mother wants it so badly," Xu Qinyin asked.

"Tomorrow," Gu Ning said. "There are also many new products, and you can go to the flagship store tomorrow."

In fact, Gu Ning could send Xu Qinyin's mother a set, but she didn't do that because her store would be opening tomorrow and it needed popularity.

"Where? Where?" Xu Qinyin asked with excitement.

"No.168, XX Road, downtown. Don't forget to go there along with your mother!" Gu Ning said.

"Of course I won't! I'll tell my mother right now," Xu Qinyin said then hung up, and went to tell her mother the exciting news. Her mother called several female friends at once, and they decided that they would go there tomorrow together.

Xu Qinyin's mother had no intention to promote Gu Ning's brand, because she didn't know Gu Ning anyway, but she simply thought that the products were quite good, so she recommended it to her friends.

Xu Qinyin called Gu Anna later as well, and invited her to go with her. Gu Anna cared more about skincare products than Xu Qinyin, so she absolutely wouldn't miss it. Even if not for the skincare products, they were Gu Ning's friends, and should go to congratulate Gu Ning tomorrow.

After washing dishes, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning left home together.

At the same time, a piece of news went viral. It was about the ads of Jade Beauty Jewelry and Charm.

Su Tongnuo was a beauty herself, and she looked even more stunning in the photos and video ad after K's editing. No matter if it was a photo or video ad, it was very attractive.

Su Tongnuo dressed in three different styles in the posters and video ad. She was as pure as a flower fairy, as elegant as a noblewoman, and as powerful as a queen. She looked perfect with the jade jewelry.

"Wow! She's a pure goddess!"

"I'm in love with her now."

"She's so stunning, so is the jade jewelry!"

"The posters make me want to buy all of them, but I'm too poor to afford that."

"Ha-ha, ha-ha."

Once the posters and the video ad were out, the number of Su Tongnuo's followers on social media rapidly increased.

At the same time, many people were impressed by the high level of the ad. Therefore, the ad attracted more and more attention, and soon became the hottest topic on Weibo. Once it became popular, haters couldn't remain silent anymore.

"I think she only looks good because of her delicate make-up and the retoucher's outstanding skills."

"I don't like her. She looks like a calculating bitch."

Seeing the above comments, Su Tongnuo's fans got mad.

"Haters! Couldn't you focus more on yourself?"

Chapter 626 Colaine Is Open

"You're simply jealous of Tongnuo's achievements now, because you haters can never achieve anything!"

As long as Su Tongnuo's loyal fans saw vicious comments, they would argue with them and forced those haters to shut their mouths.

Anyway, there was no star who was admired by everyone. Even if an actor was very famous, or even became a household name, there would always be some people who disliked him or her very much.

No matter who worked in the entertainment industry, he or she must be prepared to be criticized or sworn at for no reason.

When the crew of Infinite Horror saw the ad of Su Tongnuo, they were all stunned too. Bai Lin was quite envious and even a little jealous of Su Tongnuo's success now, but she had no intention to scheme against her.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting came to the flagship store later. It was divided into two spaces, and the pharmacy occupied three-quarters of the entire store, while the rest belonged to the skincare products.

The sign of the pharmacy was Colaine Pharmacy, while that of the skincare products store was Kouzi Skincare. At the lower right corners of the two signs, the direct-sale store was marked. Direct sales meant that this company directly sold its products at these two stores.

Colaine pharmacy was decorated in the same style as other pharmacies. Kouzi Skincare, however, was decorated beautifully.

"Nice to see you, Miss Gu and Mr. Leng!" Ning Changkai greeted them when Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived. Gu Ning had told Ning Changkai to call her Miss Gu outside of her company, so Ning Changkai followed her order. Leng Shaoting had accompanied Gu Ning to acquire the medicine factory, so Ning Changkai naturally knew him.

"How is everything going now?" Gu Ning asked.

Ning Changkai guided Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting walking around the store and said, "Most of the products have been placed on shelves."

Several workers in the store were stunned by Gu Ning's and Leng Shaoting's appearance when they walked towards them.

Right at this moment, a young man suddenly rushed in carrying a woman on his back. The woman's face was pale and she seemed to be in great pain. The man anxiously shouted, "Is there any medicine for dysmenorrhea? My girlfriend is suffering from dysmenorrhea!"

The man was hanging out with his girlfriend, and his girlfriend's period came all of a sudden. His girlfriend always suffered from dysmenorrhea[1] on her period, and it hurt a lot every time.

"Yes!" The leader of the pharmacy was a woman, and she answered the moment she heard the man's call for help. Although this pharmacy was going to open tomorrow, she wouldn't chase her potential customer away.

The man put his girlfriend down on the sofa.

Before long, the leader came back with a box of medicine. "Take this, and she'll be fine within minutes."

It was quite effective if this medicine could come into effect within minutes, because normally it took dozens of minutes or even hours. The man didn't ask further and opened it at once.

There were six small bottles the size of a finger in the box.

"Take a bottle a time," the leader said.

The man opened a bottle and helped his girlfriend take it. Once the liquid went into her mouth, she tasted some sweetness and it didn't taste terrible at all. The cool liquid medicine flowed down her throat. The moment the liquid medicine arrived at her stomach, her pain was gradually relieved, and the woman didn't feel much pain after only a minute.

"How is it?" the man asked nervously.

"It's so good!" his girlfriend said. "Wow, this medicine is so amazing. I feel much better now after only one or two minutes! Honey, let's buy more of this!"

"No problem." The man was relieved that his girlfriend seemed fine now.

"How much is this?" he asked the leader.

"Sixty yuan," the leader said. "This medicine is aimed to reduce abdominal pain. Not only dysmenorrhea, but it's also effective for general stomach pain."

"Please give me another five boxes of it!" The man didn't think that this medicine was expensive at all, although its price was twice a high as normal medicine.

The leader went to fetch five more boxes and the man went to pay for them at the counter. At this moment, his girlfriend was able to walk on her own now.

Because she was carried in by her boyfriend, many people noticed them and were wondering what was happening. When she walked out herself, everyone was surprised.

"Hey, miss, what happened to you just then? Why can you walk out on your own now?" an old woman asked her with curiosity.

The woman seemed a little embarrassed, but still answered, "Um, I always suffer from dysmenorrhea on my period. My boyfriend and I just walked by this pharmacy, so we went in and bought a box of medicine. The medicine is so effective and I feel much better now."

"Really?" Hearing that, everyone was astonished.

"If so, I must buy some for my daughter too!" another woman said and walked into the pharmacy.

"Oh, I should also buy some for my daughter-in-law!" another old woman said and stepped into the pharmacy.

"Are there other effective medicines in the store?" a man asked.

"Let's go inside and check it ourselves!" another man said, and walked in the pharmacy too.

Other people around noticed them walking to the pharmacy one by one, and they got curious too. Once it started, more and more people followed others walking inside out of curiosity. In addition, many of them acquired a lot of medicines at a time. Anyway, it wasn't a bad thing to prepare some effective medicines at home.

Since this pharmacy was already established, people believed that the medicines in it were all qualified and safe. Although the medicines in this pharmacy were more expensive than those in other pharmacies, many people believed that their prices were higher for a reason.

(1) Very painful menstrual cramps.

Chapter 627 The Public Jade Bid

There was a girl who had an allergy because of eating mangoes. It was useless to apply ointment, and she had adverse reactions to infusion. A saleswoman gave the girl a 50ml lotion at once, which was well-packaged, and this medicine was also very effective.

In the beginning, the girl thought that it was too expensive, so the leader told her to try it for free. After applying it for a few minutes, her skin gradually went back to normal. If she continued to apply the lotion three times a day, she would fully recover from the allergy. Moreover, this lotion was also effective in removing acne marks. Therefore, it was very popular among girls.

Without hesitation, the girl bought it at once. Other girls in the pharmacy also bought it after seeing its effect with their own eyes.

Some people bought many kinds of medicine for themselves or their families too according to the illnesses they had, such as cold, rheumatism, joint pain, and so on. Those were all common illnesses, but weren't serious, so it could be kept under control by taking medicines.

Colaine Pharmacy provided all the medicines for common illnesses.

"Why are the medicines here all the same brand?" someone suddenly asked.

A salesman explained. "It's a direct-sale store of a pharmaceutical company, so there is only their brand, but the brand covers all the common illnesses."

"Look, there are many skincare products too! They're so expensive."

Another saleswoman explained. "If you hesitate because of its price, you can try its sample first. If you like it, you can buy more after that."

"Really?" Hearing that, the girl was very happy, and took three free samples of skin toner, emulsion and serum.

Other girls all got the same free samples.

Within a dozen minutes, there were dozens of customers coming in and out of this pharmacy. Although only half of them bought something, they were still able to make several thousand yuan.

"It's a really good beginning!"

Gu Ning and the others saw everything in the lounge, and Ning Changkai was especially excited. There was also a satisfied smile on Gu Ning's lips. To be honest, she was surprised that this pharmacy could be so profitable within a short time even before it opened.

Around 9 am, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting left. They went directly back to Leng Shaoting's house.

However, on the way home, Leng Shaoting received Xu Jinchen's call. "Hey, Shaoting, since Gu Ning is in the capital now, why don't you share a meal with us?"

Leng Shaoting didn't answer it at once, but looked at Gu Ning asking for her opinion in silence. Gu Ning could hear Xu Jinchen's voice on the phone and didn't reject. Afterwards, they went to the appointed place.

Before long, Gu Ning's phone rang, and the caller was Zheng Peng who was in City Teng.

"Hi, Uncle Zheng," Gu Ning said.

"Boss, Burma will hold the annual public jade bid on the 28th next month. Will you be attending it?" Zheng Peng asked.

The public jade bid was held once every year in Burma, and it was the largest public jade bid activity in Burma. The public jade bid was the most exciting competition for jade merchants. It was a comprehensive competition of wealth, eyesight and courage.

Prior to the beginning of the public jade bid, all raw materials of jade were numbered and indicated its weight as well as reserve price. The reserve price was generally low. All the raw materials were publicly exhibited for three days, and jade merchants observed all the exhibits one by one to select what they needed. Afterwards, they evaluated its price to determine the best bid price before putting it into the bidding box.

Burma was very strict about jade resources. It was only legal o trade at the public jade bid, and all other kinds of trade would be regarded as smuggling.

Although Gu Ning already had her own raw material mountain, she was running a jade provider now, so she needed a large amount of raw materials.

In the beginning, Gu Ning planned to visit Burma to buy raw materials when she was free. She had her telepathic eye space after all, so she wasn't worried about being caught because of smuggling. However, unexpectedly, the public jade bid would be held the next month. It was already the end of this month, so she still had a month to prepare for it. She could settle the ongoing things within a month.

"Sure, why not," Gu Ning said.

Leng Shaoting heard their talk on the phone, and thought that he could get at least a week free next month.

"If I'm free next month, I'll go with you," Leng Shaoting said.

"Great." Gu Ning agreed.

A short while after Gu Ning hung up the call with Zheng Peng, Jiang Ruiqin called her after he had hesitated for a long while.

"Hey, what are you doing now? Wanna dine out together?" Jiang Ruiqin said.

Hearing the voice, Leng Shaoting immediately knew who he was, and he was confused as to how Gu Ning got to know Jiang Ruiqin.

"Thanks, but I already have an appointment with my friend," Gu Ning said, feeling a little bad.

"Well, fine, we can dine together next time." Jiang Ruiqin was a little disappointed, but didn't insist.

"Sure," Gu Ning said then hung up.

"Are you familiar with him?" Leng Shaoting said, feeling slightly jealous.

Gu Ning sensed Leng Shaoting's emotional changes, she wore a resigned look but still explained. "I'm not. I just encountered him when I ran in the morning yesterday, and I met him again when I hung out with Xu Qinyin last night. We just know each other for a short time."

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was even more jealous. "You just met him twice, and you already gave him your phone number and you even agreed to dine with him next time?"

Gu Ning was amused by her jealous boyfriend. However, she thought that it was reasonable that he was displeased, because she had so many male friends while he had few female friends. Actually, Gu Ning kept a polite distance for her male friends.

Gu Ning didn't know what to do seeing Leng Shaoting being jealous, but she wouldn't blame him. Instead, she became more patient and explained it clearly, "He's Qinyin's friend, and Master Jiang's grandson, so It wasn't appropriate if I refused to exchange phone numbers with him. I can make an excuse the next time if he calls again."

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting cheered up.

Xu Jinchen invited them to dine together in the presidential suite at Jinlin Hotel which was Xu Jinchen's family business.

Chapter 628 Who Chased the Other First?

There was a lot of game equipment inside, like a billiard table, KTV, mahjong, and darts so that you could have some fun with your friends after the meal.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived at 5:30 pm, and their friends were already playing the games. There were four of them in all, including Xu Jinchen, Xin Bei, Xu Qinyin and Gu Anna.

"Hi, Shaoting, Gu Ning!"

The moment Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting walked in, Xu Jinchen and Xin Bei who were playing cue sports greeted them, then continued to play.

Xu Qinyin and Gu Anna were singing in the KTV room, but the music wasn't loud, so they heard Xu Jinchen talking to Leng Shaoting.

Gu Anna was surprised that Leng Shaoting came with Gu Ning and couldn't believe her ears. She didn't know Gu Ning's relationship with Leng Shaoting.

"Oh, Gu Ning is here!" Xu Qinyin was excited, and stood up walking out.

"Wait, why did Gu Ning come with Shaoting?" Gu Anna asked but Xu Qinyin was already gone, so she followed her out at once. When they came out, they saw Gu Ning standing by Leng Shaoting's side, and he was helping her take off her backpack.

Gu Anna was shocked. Are they a couple?

"Hi, Shaoting, Gu Ning!" Xu Qinyin said to them.

Gu Anna was already struck dumb, and couldn't say a word.

Gu Ning left Leng Shaoting alone and walked to them.

Xu Qinyin and Gu Anna pulled Gu Ning into the KTV room and Gu Anna asked her, "Gu Ning, what's your relationship with Lord Leng?"

"He's my boyfriend," Gu Ning said.

"What?" Gu Anna was completely shocked now. Although she wasn't familiar with Leng Shaoting, she had met him many times before because of her friendship with Xu Qinyin. In the beginning, Gu Anna was very attracted to Leng Shaoting's stunning appearance and sexy body, and she had even tried to seduce him. However, he always kept a distance from her, and she was scared of his cold glances. Gu Anna used to think that Leng Shaoting probably didn't like women. However, Xu Qinyin told her that Leng Shaoting wasn't a gay. That being the case, Gu Anna was quite astonished that he suddenly had a girlfriend now.

Although Gu Anna had admired Leng Shaoting before, Leng Shaoting never gave her any responses, so she already gave up and even felt stressed seeing him. Therefore, she was greatly surprised, but not jealous.

"Gu Ning, you're Lord Leng's girlfriend! That's so astonishing!" Gu Anna said.

Gu Ning smiled, but didn't say anything because she understood why Gu Anna was as shocked as everyone else when they heard that Leng Shaoting had a girlfriend. However, Gu Ning was wondering about Master Leng's reaction when he found out.

What she didn't know was that Master Leng already knew that Leng Shaoting wasn't single. Moreover, he was eager to meet his grandson's girlfriend. In fact, they have already met each other, but neither of them knew.

Gu Anna blamed Xu Qinyin. "Qinyin, why didn't you tell me that Lord Leng has a girlfriend, and his girlfriend is Gu Ning?"

"Oh, I forgot." Xu Qinyin blinked her eyes and looked innocent.

Gu Anna let her go, then stared straight at Gu Ning. "Tell us, who chased the other first?"

"He chased me," Gu Ning said. "Oh my god!" Gu Anna exclaimed with shock. To her surprise, Leng Shaoting, who seemed so cold and always kept a distance from women would chase a girl on his own initiative! "Does he treat you well? Do you feel bored being with him? Don't you feel stressed in a relationship with him?" Gu Anna asked again.

"Ha-ha." Gu Ning and Xu Qinyin laughed out loud, but both of them understood why she would ask those questions.

"Well, no matter how cold he is to others, he's always kind and tender in front of me. I don't feel bored at all being with him. I'm living a happier life than ever," Gu Ning said with a smile on her face.

"Glad to hear that!" Since Gu Ning said so, Gu Anna wasn't worried.

"Oh, Qinyin told me that you've established your own brand of skincare products. It'll open tomorrow, right? I'll go there to shop with my female friends!" Gu Anna said.

"Great!" Gu Ning said.

"I've told all my female friends on WeChat, and they'll go to have a look too," Xu Qinyin said.

"Oh, right, I should do that too," Gu Anna said and sent messages to her female friends by WeChat as well.

"Gu Ning, why don't we add each other as WeChat contacts?" Xu Qinyin asked Gu Ning. "Sure, why not!" Gu Ning took out her phone. "I don't use WeChat often. You can call me if it's an emergency."

"No problem," Xu Qinyin said.

"Add me too!" Gu Anna said.

Afterwards, Gu Anna, Xu Qinyin and Gu Ning added each other as WeChat contacts.

"Wow, Gu Ning, you've posted nothing in your moments! Anna and I have posted countless selfies or photos of food or beautiful views." Xu Qinyin was surprised after checking Gu Ning's WeChat moments.

"I'm not a fan of doing that," Gu Ning said.

Gu Anna sent out many messages concerning Gu Ning's skincare brand, and she soon had feedback. Some said that they disliked it because it wasn't an international brand.

Chapter 629 Public Display of Affection

Some also said that international brands could also be very awful. For the sake of Gu Anna, many still decided to have a look.

Gu Anna was born in a super-rich family herself so she, of course, wouldn't recommend bad things if she had tried them.

Even though Gu Ning's skincare brand wasn't very famous yet, Gu Anna's friends were also willing to give it a try to please Gu Anna. Not everyone who was Gu Anna's WeChat contact had a close relationship with her, and many girls were born in relatively poorer families than the Gu family, so they all wanted to ride on the Gu family's coattails. As long as they could maintain a good relationship with the Gu family, it was possible that the Gu family would give them a helping hand in the future.

Even though they might not need that, it wasn't a bad thing to maintain a good relationship with the Gu family after all.

Gu Anna didn't care about their opinions. She wouldn't force them to buy the products anyway.

The three of them talked and sang in the KTV room until 6 pm. If Xu Jinchen hadn't come to tell them to come eat together, they wouldn't have felt hungry at all!

During dinner, Leng Shaoting kept putting food into Gu Ning's bowl, and even helped her peel shrimp, which made the other four single people feel quite jealous.

"Hey, couldn't you care a little about our feelings?" Xu Jinchen said. Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting knew that the others around the table were still single, but they still displayed their affection for each other right in front of them.

"Exactly!" Gu Anna said. "I loved freedom, but now I want love."

When you were alone, you felt free, and you could do whatever you wanted. However, you somehow ached for love when you saw a loving couple.

"Why? You not single because of us," Leng Shaoting said, and hit the point.

"Fine. I'll choose a man from those who are chasing me now to be my boyfriend!" Gu Anna said, like it was a very serious decision.

"I'm so envious of you. You still have choices, but I don't think I have," Xu Qinyin said.

Xu Qinyin was beautiful, well-educated, and was also from a super-rich as well as powerful family in the capital. There were few men who had the same background as her, but she also had many admirers. However, she liked none of them.

It wasn't because she had high standards of her boyfriend, but because men today were all results-driven egotists. Even though Xu Qinyin had high standards for her boyfriend, she had the confidence to set the rules. In fact, she didn't demand that the man must be born in a super-rich or powerful family like her, but he must be outstanding and good-looking. However, she hadn't found anyone who meet her standards yet.

Most importantly, her ex-boyfriend had a bad effect on her. Although her ex-boyfriend came from a relatively powerful family in the capital as well, his family was barely comparable to hers. Even so, Xu Qinyin had never thought lightly of him.

Unfortunately, her ex-boyfriend had simply taken advantage of her. Exactly because her ex-boyfriend's family was just relatively powerful, but not very powerful in the capital, he couldn't receive invitation letters from many high-end parties. The Xu family, on the other hand, was one of the richest families in the capital, so Xu Qinyin was always invited to attend those high-end parties. Therefore, her ex-boyfriend would ride on her coattails to expand his own network.

Xu Qinyin had helped him several times, but her ex-boyfriend was never satisfied. He had even demanded to meet a certain figure. After that, Xu Qinyin was very disappointed, and broke up with him after a violent quarrel. All in all, Xu Qinyin still felt quite hurt in this relationship, and didn't move on until a month had passed.

Although it had happened a year ago, and she already got over her ex-boyfriend, it was still like a nightmare in her mind. She was afraid to encounter that terrible experience again, so she couldn't accept another man or fall in love easily now.

"Come on, you have many more admirers than I do! Don't play pitiful with me," Gu Anna said. As Xu Qinyin's close friend, Gu Anna, of course, knew why Xu Qinyin looked so sad now, but she thought that Xu Qinyin should be more brave in love. There were indeed more bad guys than good ones in this world, but it didn't mean that there were no good men at all. Not every man behaved like Xu Qinyin's ex-boyfriend after all. In addition, girls learned how to love from previous terrible experiences, Gu Anna did as well, but Gu Anna never lost hope for true love. She loved being free, and she also ached for love.

"Fine, I just haven't found a man that I like yet," Xu Qinyin said.

"Oh, Gu Ning, I heard that your store will open tomorrow," Xu Jinchen said.

"Yes," Gu Ning answered. "I'll go have a look with my friends to support you!" Xu Jinchen said.

"Why would you men go there too? Those are female skincare products," Xu Qinyin said with disdain. She didn't know that Gu Ning also had a pharmacy.

Hearing that, Xu Jinchen rolled his eyes at Xu Qinyin then said, "I go there to support Gu Ning out of kindness, alright?"

"Fine!" Xu Qinyin made a face.

After dinner, they sang a while longer in the KTV room before they separated.

Once Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were back in the house, Leng Shaoting pressed her against the bed. He had been waiting for this moment the entire day.

Chapter 630 Morning Exercise

Leng Shaoting's hand touched every inch of her skin, which made her feel aroused. When he penetrated her at the end, she felt quite satisfied. At the same time, he also sensed a mysterious power in her body from somewhere deep, and his body mixed with hers into one.

The next morning, Jiang Ruiqin still got up early and went out to run. He didn't run long, but stayed still at one place, because he was afraid that he would miss Gu Ning. If he was waiting for her at a certain place, he could see Gu Ning if she passed by. However, Gu Ning was still absent this morning. Jiang Ruiqin was more disappointed than ever now.

Didn't she say that she runs in the morning every day? Why has she been absent for two days? Did she encounter any trouble, or is she avoiding me? Jiang Ruiqin thought to himself.

Jiang Ruiqin couldn't figure it out, and went back home feeling sad.

Tang Qingyang was preparing breakfast when Jiang Ruiqin came home with obvious disappointment again.

"What happened? Why do you look so upset again? You didn't see her today?" he asked.

"Mm," Jiang Ruiqin said, throwing himself onto the sofa, staring at the ceiling with an absent look on his face.

"I just thought that you like her, but it seems like you're in love now," Tang Qingyang said.

Jiang Ruiqin's mood was completely affected by Gu Ning now.

"Yeah." Jiang Ruiqin didn��t deny it. Actually, he never thought that he would fall in love with a girl at the first sight and now he was falling even deeper when he was missing her. However, it wasn't his fault anyway. Gu Ning was so outstanding and attractive. She must have countless admirers.

Tang Qingyang walked to Jiang Ruiqin and encouraged him. "Tell her if you love her! She will never know it if you don't say it aloud."

"We have just met twice. I don't want her to think I'm easy," Jiang Ruiqin said.

"You're right." Tang Qingyang agreed, but he felt worried seeing his close friend being so upset. Compared to other men today, Jiang Ruiqin was really a reliable, good young man, so Tang Qingyang, as his close brother, didn't want him to be hurt by a woman again.

Jiang Ruiqin had been hurt by a woman in love, but it had happened a long time ago, and he had already moved on now. True love was only for the right person.

Gu Ning woke up at 7 am. Once she opened her eyes, Leng Shaoting's stunning, sleeping face appeared in her sight, and she was deeply attracted to it. Leng Shaoting's tanned skin looked very sexy in the sunshine.

His flawless face was as beautiful as a statue. Maybe he wasn't the most handsome man in the world, but he definitely was the most attractive one in her eyes, and she was willing to do everything for him.

All of a sudden, Leng Shaoting opened his eyes, and wore an evil smile. Gu Ning was a little scared, but still couldn't move her eyes away from his smile. Seeing that, Leng Shaoting was quite satisfied, and wore a broader smile, which stunned Gu Ning.

"Do you enjoy looking at me?" Leng Shaoting asked in his husky voice.

"Yeah," Gu Ning said listening to her heart. "Go on," Leng Shaoting said. "Why don't you kiss me?"

Gu Ning, however, stopped looking at him and was about to leave the bed.

Nevertheless, Leng Shaoting pulled her back and pressed on her body without hesitation.

"What are you doing?" Gu Ning looked at him, feeling nervous.

"Let's do some morning exercise," Leng Shaoting said with a serious face.

"No, my store is going to open today, and I must be there this morning." Gu Ning struggled to get rid of his control.

"I know, so It won't take long," Leng Shaoting said, and kissed her to close her mouth.

Gu Ning couldn't resist it, and started to enjoy his kissing and touching. The foreplay only lasted for a short time today before Leng Shaoting penetrated her. After a dozen minutes, Leng Shaoting stopped.

He hugged Gu Ning while taking a shower today. He knew that she would be busy today, so he wouldn't "exercise" again with her. After putting on fresh clothes, they left the house together.

It was almost 9:30 am when they arrived.

A while later, Xu Jinchen came with flowers to congratulate Gu Ning.

"Congratulations!" Xu Jinchen said to Gu Ning.

"Thank you so much!" Gu Ning took the flowers from him.

Afterwards, Xin Bei also came with flowers.

Seeing several extremely handsome sexy men standing at the door, many women stopped walking.

"Wow, they're so handsome!"

"Look at their bodies!"

"Are they models?"

"They must be!"

"They could be actors too!"

"If they were actors, countless women would be stunned by them."

They discussed and took many pictures of them.
