Chapter 261: Why Did You Buy Her Jade?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

There were photos attached too. Although it was only a profile, it still wasn't difficult to recognize that the woman in the photos was the woman in front of their eyes. And people were all astonished by the amount of money she had made.

She had made 345 million yuan last time with four pieces of jade, and this time she got six pieces of jade, which meant that she was going to make even more money.

Although the majority that she cut out was medium-level jade, and its price was much lower, it was already a fortune in ordinary people's eyes. In addition, it hadn't finished yet!

More and more people reposted the news and an increasing number of people got to know about it. Many of them who lived nearby ran to the street of stone gambling to witness it with their own eyes.

Gu Ning cut out a high-level jade from the eighth raw material. It was of the glass type. The ninth piece was also a high-level jade. It was violet.

Wang Hongming almost went crazy trembling from anger and disappointment.

Why? Why can this woman cut out so many pieces of jade? Why?

Wang Xinyan was already struck dumb. She wished that she was in a dream.

And then, Gu Ning directly took out the tenth raw material with a top-level jade inside.

When a worker announced that there was jade inside, no one was surprised again, because they were already used to it. If there was no jade inside, they would probably be astonished. However, when they found out the type of the jade, it caused a sensation once more, because it was the top-level Fulushou jade.

The worker had been working in this industry for at least seven years, but he had never cut out a single piece of top-level jade, which was the reason why he was so excited.

If his boss was going to fire him because of that, he wouldn't say a word.

"What? Did I hear it right? A top-level Fulushou jade?"

Wang Hongming almost passed out.

Although the Wang Family didn't lack jade, it was rare to find high-level and top-level jade; especially the top-level jade. They had to cut out over a thousand raw materials to get a piece of top-level jade during these years, but Gu Ning easily cut out two pieces of high-level jade and a single piece of top-level jade from his own store, which made his eyes green.

After the tenth jade was cut out, Gu Ning looked to Wang Hongming. "Master Wang, I think the result of the bet is pretty clear now. Would you prefer to transfer the money to me or give a check?"

"Grandpa…" Wang Xinyan wanted to stop her grandpa, but before she could finish, Wang Hongming gave her an angry glance. She then closed her mouth at once.

Wang Hongming was extremely unwilling to do so, but it was too late to deny it, so he had to transfer the money to Gu Ning.

The crowd burst into discussion again.

"Miss Tang is so awesome! How can she be so lucky and able at the same time?"

"Does she have a superpower and know that there is jade inside?"

"I think that she must have Jade Eyes, which can see the inside of raw materials."

People started to guess, because it was so shocking. However, they were all ordinary people and no one really believed that Gu Ning had Jade Eyes.

Wang Hongming was in a rage now; not because he just lost 20 million yuan, but because Gu Ning took so much valuable, even priceless jade out of his store. That jade was worth far more than twenty million yuan.

Does she really have a superpower or Jade Eyes? Wang Hongming thought to himself, but he soon denied it. He couldn't accept this ridiculous idea.

The last person that Wang Hongming wanted to see in this world right now was Gu Ning, but he didn't leave right away, because he was curious how many pieces of jade this woman could cut out and he was also interested in the Fulushou jade.

Although Wang Hongming was an influential figure in City Teng and many people wouldn't compete against him for the Fulushou jade, the jewelry businessmen couldn't care less about him. All they wanted was jade. And the rule was that the most generous buyer got the jade.

The Fulushou jade wasn't small, so its initial bid price was very high.

"Fifty million yuan!"

"Sixty million yuan!"

"Three hundred and twenty million yuan!"

In the end, Wang Hongming got the Fulushou jade at the price of three hundred and twenty million yuan. He decided to transfer the money again.

Wang Hongming now had mixed emotions, because he paid a fortune for a piece of jade out of his own raw materials. It was so unusual! If he had cut out the jade himself, he wouldn't pay a cent for it. Unfortunately, he wasn't lucky enough.

"Grandpa, why did you buy her jade?" Wang Xinyan was almost 20-years-old, but was spoiled rotten already. She was so emotional and couldn't make good judgments from the perspective of a businessman.

"Rong, send her back now." Wang Hongming was in a bad mood now, but Wang Xinyan kept complaining beside his ears, which annoyed him greatly, so he asked the driver to take her back first.

"Grandpa…" Wang Xinyan was reluctant to leave.

"Go back home now!" Wang Hongming lost his patience. Wang Xinyan didn't resist any more, and left with the driver. While she was walking out, she glared at Gu Ning with great force. She hated her to death now.

However, Gu Ning didn't care at all, because she knew that Wang Xinyan could barely compete with her.

Someone posted the news on the Internet again. Its title was Latest News: The Queen of Jade Cut Out 10 Piece of Jade Till Now. One of Them Is Fulushou Jade Which Was Sold at The Price of 320 Million Yuan!

There were pictures of the jade attached to the post.

The news caused an even bigger sensation this time, even the members from the Jade Association swarmed into the store without delay.

Jade of the glass and violet types was hard to find, but not rare, while Fulushou jade was truly a rarity. They only heard that someone cut out Fulushou jade once in a few years.

Chapter 262: Despair

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Many people were also green with envy because of the amount of money that Gu Ning had made. They all dreamed to own that enormous amount of money themselves.

The Queen of Jade was well-known online right now.

"Miss Tang, do you plan to cut out the rest of the raw materials of yours?" someone asked with great anticipation.

There were seven representatives of different jewelry companies in the store of the Wang Family, but only several of them had gotten one or two pieces of jade, which was barely enough.

Although they were jealous of Gu Ning's unusual luck and ability to cut out so many pieces of jade, they were more willing to maintain a good relationship with her for their future cooperation.

"Sure!" Gu Ning gave them an affirmative answer. She intended to aggravate Wang Hongming, and she wouldn't stop when she had just began.

The following raw materials which were about to be cut out were from Room A.

One of them already showed green through the window, so everyone believed that there would be a medium-level jade inside, but to their astonishment, its color changed after only one cut.

"It's purple! How come it's purple?" the worker almost shouted with excitement.

"What? Purple? Isn't it green?"

"No-no. It's a high-level jade of the violet type!"

"What? The high-level violet?"

Wow!

The crowd was shocked. It was beyond their imagination that there was actually a purple jade inside. However, no one was more regretful than Wang Hongming. He was in despair now. All the priceless jade was bought by a stranger, and he lost a fortune within a day. He had thought that there was merely a medium-level jade in the raw material with a window, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

However, there was something more exciting to come.

Another worker removed the outer layer and started cleaning the second raw material with a window. The jade with a bright green color came into people's sight. It was flawless and smooth, and was jade of the old-pit glass type.

Wang Hongming was struck dumb.

Why? How could it be possible? He kept thinking to himself.

Gu Ning was now almost a goddess in their eyes, because her judgments were 100% accurate concerning stone gambling. No one else could do that before her.

Thinking of that, Wang Hongming couldn't accept the truth. His anger and disappointment were burning.

"I don't think that this is violet jade. It has to be the violet jade with green flowers," someone said in shock when the jade which was assumed to be violet was more than a half cut out.

"What? Violet jade with green flowers?" another man said with amazement.

Violet jade with green flowers was a kind of top-level jade. Although it couldn't compare with the King's Green, it was much more valuable than the jade of the old-pit glass type.

"Exactly, I heard that someone cut out a piece of violet jade with green flowers five years ago. It weighed 12 pounds and was sold at the price of a billion yuan. I think this one probably weighs around eight pounds, and it is worth at least five hundred million yuan," a man added.

Everyone was astonished by its price, but at the same time, some were also mad that the man revealed its real price already, because in that case they couldn't deliberately bid a lower price for it. However, even now, no one was more astonished than Wang Hongming.

He had controlled himself to stay calm for so long, and now suddenly he sensed his blood was rising in his throat. He immediately gave his secretary a hint and walked away with him without delay.

Gu Ning noticed every detail of Wang Hongming's reaction. She understood that he had gotten too mad and finally lost control now.

The minute that Wang Hongming walked out of the store, he spat a mouthful of blood, and almost fell. Luckily, his secretary supported him on time. Meanwhile, his chauffeur came back, so he drove Wang Hongming to the hospital at once.

Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to see what was happening outside, but she had no sympathy for Wang Hongming at all, because he deserved it. She had no intention to hurt him in the very beginning.

If Wang Hongming let it go after that, she wouldn't behave against him again, but if he was going to revenge himself on her, Gu Ning absolutely wouldn't yield.

In fact, from what Gu Ning already knew about the Wang Family, she understood that Wang Hongming wouldn't let it go easily.

Some people on the street saw Wang Hongming spitting blood and began to discuss it.

"Hey, I saw Master Wang spitting blood on the street just then.��

"What? Master Wang spat blood?"

"It's understandable. He lost so many pieces of valuable jade within a day!"

"Exactly! If I were him, I couldn't accept it either."

"It's so shocking by the way. Who is this Tang Aining? She is so unbearable!"

"Indeed, I'm so jealous of her!"

There were more people who arrived after they read the news.

They only knew that someone continuously cut out many pieces of jade, but didn't know the types of those jade. To their amazement, they had the rare chance to see the jade of the violet with green flowers and old-pit glass types.

They all believed that they had to be in a dream, because it was too good to be true!

Other than the shock, admiration and jealousy, Gu Ning also sensed hostility from the people around her.

She had made an enormous amount of money within a short time, which was quite noticeable.

There were many thieves and robbers around this street all the time, because the street of stone gambling was where rich people gathered.

However, Gu Ning didn't care. She had already prepared well for it, since she chose to cut out raw materials in public. If those thieves and robbers dared to attack her, they better be mentally prepared to bear the result.

More representatives of jewelry companies were busy chatting with Gu Ning and exchanged name cards with her.

She already had 16 name cards in her hands till now, including 13 domestic jewelry companies, which covered two thirds of the popular jewelry brands in this country. And the other three were international jewelry companies.

Zhao Yuefeng also came to the store like everyone else, but he didn't recognize Gu Ning. And Gu Ning treated him the same way as others in order to not expose her real identity.

Chapter 263: Leng Shaoting's Arrival

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhang Decheng arrived later as well, along with several old men at the same age. They were more than shocked when they found out the types of the jade.

An old man came to Gu Ning and asked with excitement as well as politeness, "Are you Miss Tang who cut out all the jade?"

Actually, he recognized her at first sight but still asked the question out of politeness.

"Yes, I am. May I know you name?" Gu Ning replied politely.

The old man was slightly surprised by Gu Ning's good manners. He thought that she would be very proud or even arrogant after she cut out so many pieces of valuable jade, but now he had a better impression of Gu Ning.

"Miss Tang, so nice to meet you. I'm the head of the Jade Association in City Teng, Zhang Dequan. And your extremely outstanding ability of stone gambling impresses me deeply. I hope that we can have a chance to communicate with each other."

Zhang Dequan didn't hide his appreciation and admiration towards Gu Ning. And he didn't show any hatred or jealousy at all. He only admired Gu Ning for her ability of stone gambling, instead of her wealth. Only upright people valued ability and talent over money.

Zhang Dequan was Zhang Decheng's younger brother. And as the head of Jade Association, Zhang Dequan was also excellent at stone gambling. He had cut out three pieces of jade out of five raw materials before. Although it had only happened once, he had won everyone's respect already, because it had never happened before him, but now, Gu Ning appeared all of a sudden.

"So nice to meet you too, Mr. Zhang. It's my honor to be able to communicate with you," Gu Ning replied modestly. She wouldn't reject such a kind and respected man. And the point of cooperation was a win-win.

"Miss Tang, would you please tell me how you make judgments about whether there is jade in the raw materials? I had a look of those raw materials in your cart, but some of them don't show any signs of jade," Zhang Dequan asked Gu Ning.

"The outer layer of the raw materials is a weathered leather shell, which makes it impossible to see whether there is jade or its species. It is said that "songhua", "python stripe", " moss" and other characteristics are of great help to judge the internal condition of the raw materials. I don't deny it, because they're indeed helpful in most cases, but it's also possible to cut out jade from raw materials without "songhua", "python stripe", " moss" or other characteristics. One's luck is also very important. Therefore, I basically choose raw materials according to my instinct. Fortunately, I have good instinct and luck," Ning answered.

"Well put!" Zhang Dequan couldn't agree more. He understood that it was also possible to cut jade out of raw materials without "songhua", "python stripe", " moss" or other characteristics, but no one dared to take the chance because it was too risky. However, he was still amazed by this woman's unbelievable luck. He had to believe it for now, because he couldn't find any other reasonable explanation. In addition, the woman indeed seemed confident and able.

Gu Ning also noticed that Master Tang was standing with Lu Mingfei, the representative of Dihao Jewelry, who had exchanged name cards with her.

Dihao Jewelry originated from City B, and was the biggest high-end jewelry brand in this country. It was one of the four first-line jewelry brands domestically, and was famous internationally too.

There were only three domestic jewelry companies which were well-known internationally, and the Tang Family's company was one of them, but this Tang Family wasn't the Tang Family that Tang Aining was from.

Gu Ning glanced at Master Tang, seeing that Lu Mingfei respected Master Tang a lot as if Master Tang was his boss. Is Master Tang the boss or the management of Dihao Jewelry? Gu Ning thought to herself.

Dihao Jewelry belonged to the Tanghuang Group, and the Tang Family was one of the four most influential families in City B.

The Tang Family was more than a normal super-rich family because it was powerful in both business and politics, thus few people dare to act against it.

Gu Ning believed that Master Tang must have a close connection with Dihao Jewelry. Anyway, it had nothing to do with her.

The violet jade with green flowers was open for bid later.

Because a man had already revealed the real price of this violet jade with green flowers, all the businessmen started to bid at a very high price.

In the end, the violet jade with green flowers was bought by Dihao Jewelry at the price of six hundred million yuan.

After that, the old-pit glass species was sold at the price of two hundred and fifty million yuan.

Gu Ning continued to cut out the rest of her raw materials and more pieces of jade came out continuously, but she only cut out medium-level jade for sale.

The minute that Leng Shaoting got off the plane at the military division, he told Xu Jinchen and the others to keep an eye on their opponents before he came back. Then he abandoned them and left, which surprised Xu Jinchen and his other teammates.

"Wait, what's going on here?"

"No idea."

"I think our boss has been acting strange recently. He is always in a hurry to meet someone."

"Exactly, he even abandoned us."

"Is he really in love now?"

Gu Ning had already told Leng Shaoting that she would be in the street of stone gambling most of today, so he drove straight to the street.

When he parked the car in the parking lot, he called Gu Ning at once. However, it wasn't convenient for Gu Ning to answer his call now, so she texted him.

Leng Shaoting immediately sent her a message back. I have already arrived here at the parking lot on the street of stone gambling.

Reading that message, Gu Ning was slightly surprised but soon went back to normal. She understood that he must be free now since he came here in person, so she packed up and left without delay.

Gu Ning had only cut out half of her raw materials till now, and there were 30 more with mostly medium-level jade inside.

Gu Ning had not only made over 2.3 billion yuan, but also absorbed a lot of power from the jade that she had cut out today. Her telepathic eye space was doubled again, and was eight square meters in size now.

Seeing that Gu Ning was leaving, the jewelry businessmen were all disappointed because many of them hadn't gotten a single piece of jade yet!

Chapter 264: A Damaged Store

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Ning comforted them. "Please don't worry. I'll inform you all within one or two days once the rest of the raw materials have all been cut out."

Hearing that, everyone was excited.

Then Gu Ning left the store.

Although Wang Hongming was absent, someone told him every detail about what was happening in his store. When he got to know that Tang Aining cut out over 30 pieces of jade continuously and made 2.3 billion yuan till now, he spat blood several times.

She had only cut out half of her raw materials and had already made 2.4 billion yuan!

Wang Hongming was now fully convinced that the rest of her raw materials all contained jade.

Did she take all the raw materials with jade inside from my store? Wang Hongming thought to himself.

This time, Wang Hongming had a plan to kill Tang Aining.

The minute that Gu Ning walked out of the store, she sensed that eyes were fixed on her, but she didn't care. She went straight to a washroom with the box of jade in her hands then put it into her telepathic eye space. After that, she changed her clothes and removed her make-up swiftly. Ten minutes later, she was back to her normal appearance and left the washroom.

There were three men pacing back and forth nearby outside of the washroom. They fixed their eyes on the washroom, but failed to recognize Gu Ning because she had already changed. Thus Gu Ning calmly walked away while in their sight.

They waited for a long time, but Tang Aining still didn't show up. They started to sense that something had to be wrong. It shouldn't take so long for a woman to use a washroom, but they were men and couldn't go inside to check, so they randomly asked another woman to go inside and check for them.

However, the woman told them that it was empty without anybody inside.

"What? It's empty? How is it possible?" None of them believed it because Tang Aining never walked out.

"Are you lying?" a man questioned the woman.

"I'm not! You can check it yourself if you don't believe me," the woman replied.

They exchanged a glance with each other. After a few seconds of struggle, one of them said, "I'll go check it."

He made a round in the ladies room, but it was indeed empty. They were all struck dumb now.

"What happened? We've been waiting here the entire time, but she never walked out!"

"Exactly! And there is only one way out of the ladies room!"

"Did she change her look and we failed to recognize her?"

"Impossible, I didn't see any female with a box in her hands coming out."

"What exactly happened?"

"Did she disappear for no reason?" a man asked, and all of them felt scared but couldn't believe it.

"What should we do now?" a man asked worriedly. Their target disappeared all of a sudden, and they would be punished.

"No idea," another man said resignedly.

"I think we should check around this area once more!"

Before Gu Ning walked out of the street of stone gambling, she noticed that there were many people gathered outside of a store which was being damaged by a group of men.

"What is going on? Who has Boss Zheng offended?"

"It's not Boss Zheng, but his son Zheng Hao isn't able to pay usury 1 . The usurer can't get the money back, so directly sent people to damage his store."

"What? Again?"

Apparently, it had happened before.

"Indeed, this is already the third time this year. Boss Zheng could pay the usury the previous two times, but now he can't afford it."

"Well, I have a deep sympathy for Boss Zheng. His wife passed away at an early age without any children. He loved his wife very much and wasn't willing to marry again. Then he adopted Zheng Hao out of kindness. However, unexpectedly, Zheng Hao is merely a loser who can't achieve anything and destroyed all of Boss Zheng's wealth."

"Exactly! Zheng Hao is just fooling around and gambles all day. What a shame that Boss Zheng who is such a good person has been ruined by his adopted son!"

"I think that his store will probably close in the near future."

"Zheng Hao is so shameless and useless. Why does Boss Zheng still keep the connection with him?"

"Who knows!"

Everyone was busy discussing with others.

Hearing their discussion, Gu Ning felt sorry for this Boss Zheng too, and also hated Zheng Hao.

"Stop it please! Please stop it! I'll pay you back in two days!" Zheng Peng tried his best to stop the group of men in vain, and he was pushed backwards with great force.

It happened too fast for Zheng Peng to react. He immediately lost his balance, falling down, and there were shelves of raw materials behind him. If Zheng Peng knocked straight into those raw materials, he would be badly injured.

Without hesitation, Gu Ning pushed the two people standing in her way aside running ahead. Those two people almost fell and screamed, but when they found out what was happening in front of their eyes, they were shocked.

Gu Ning was very fast, but was still a little bit late. Zheng Peng had already hit the shelves with the raw materials placed on them. Many raw materials fell down one after another, and one of them hit Zheng Peng's shoulder while another was falling towards his head. The crowd rounded their eyes with astonishment, and some turned away to avoid the terrible scene.

However, right at that moment, a hand grabbed Zheng Peng's arm and immediately pulled him away. Zheng Peng finally escaped the raw materials falling from the shelves.

Everyone was amazed, looking at the young girl who was surprisingly agile and had strength to save Zheng Peng's life. Otherwise, Zheng Peng would either be dead or severely injured.

Zheng Peng was struck dumb.

The men who were damaging the store stopped for a second when they heard the loud noise. They were so close but none of them had the intention to help Zheng Peng.

After seeing what Gu Ning had done, they were all surprised too. However, they saw that Zheng Peng was fine, so they continued smashing objects in the store.

Although it had nothing to do with Gu Ning, she was greatly annoyed, and attacked those men without delay.

She caught the man who stood nearest to her by his shoulder, and lifted him off the ground and threw him outside with great force.

People were all shocked by the scene. It was beyond their imagination that such a young girl could be so strong.

None of the other men in the store realized what was going on before the second man was kicked down onto the floor by Gu Ning.

Chapter 265: Zheng Peng

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

"What the f*ck!"

Just as the man opened his mouth, Gu Ning lifted him up throwing him away. The second man accidentally fell on the first man and the first man almost passed out from the pain.

The other two men finally realized what was going on. They were both shocked to see that their partners were knocked out, then raised the wood sticks in their hands and started attacking Gu Ning in anger.

However, this time, before Gu Ning could move, a man dashed in from the outside and threw the other two men out of the store within seconds.

Everyone was again amazed by this man's beautiful movements and appearance.

"Are you alright?" Leng Shaoting asked Gu Ning worriedly.

"I'm fine," Gu Ning smiled gently. She wasn't surprised by his sudden appearance, instead she felt touched.

"What's going on here?" Leng Shaoting asked.

"Oh, nothing. I just wanted to help this man," Gu Ning answered.

"Miss, thank you so much for saving my life!" Zheng Peng thanked Gu Ning at once. He was still in shock after what just had happened to him. If it hadn't been for Gu Ning, he would have been dead already.

"My pleasure," Gu Ning said. "However, Mr. Zheng, I heard that your adopted son causes you all these troubles. Why don't you cut off the connection with him?"

Hearing that, Zheng Peng sighed with great force and said resignedly, "Actually, I've failed to contact him for a year. He causes trouble outside, but those men all come to me. I don't know how to handle it. If I don't give them money, they'll damage my store."

He didn't tell Gu Ning whether he was regretful that he had adopted Zheng Hao, but he made it clear that he wanted to cut off the connection with Zheng Hao. One's kindness had limitations. Zheng Peng had brought Zheng Hao up and had now lost all of his wealth because of him, which already crossed the bottom line.

"Why don't you call the police?" Gu Ning asked.

"I did! However, they are members of the Qing Gang, and even the police don't dare to annoy them," Zheng Peng replied. He was only a common citizen without power and support, thus no one was willing to help him.

Speaking of the Qing Gang, Zheng Peng suddenly realized that it could be dangerous. "Oh! They are from the Qing Gang, and you injured them. You could get in trouble! I think you better leave right now!"

"It's fine." Gu Ning understood that Zheng Peng was being kind, but she wasn't afraid of the Qing Gang at all.

"Don't you dare leave! You injured us and the Qing Gang won't let you get away with it!" At this time, the men who had been knocked down on the ground threatened Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting.

"Gee, do you think that everyone is afraid of the Qing Gang?" Gu Ning sneered with disdain.

"You…" They didn't expect that Gu Ning wasn't scared at all, but they believed that she was just pretending. "If you're not afraid, stay here!"

Apparently, they were going to ask for support.

"I won't leave, because you have to pay for what you've done. Mr. Zheng, please calculate your loss, and let them pay the compensation," Gu Ning said.

"Miss…" Zheng Peng was surprised. He didn't dare ask them for compensation at all. He was more afraid that they would get revenge on him.

"What? How dare you ask us to pay the compensation?" Those men from the Qing Gang were mad.

"I don't think that up to you," Gu Ning sneered once more.

Since she had already given Zheng Peng a helping hand, she would not leave him in a mess. In fact, she decided to help him solve the problem completely. Otherwise, those hoodlums would vent their anger on Zheng Peng if Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were gone.

In addition, it wasn't Zheng Peng's duty to pay for Zheng Hao's bad behavior.

"Tell me you and your leader's names," Gu Ning said to one of the men.

"I'm Zhao San, and my leader is Jiu Ye who is an important figure in the Qing Gang," a man said proudly, because he didn't believe that Gu Ning was able to deal with them.

"Great, you can go away now," Gu Ning said.

"What?" Those hoodlums didn't expect that Gu Ning would change the topic so quickly.

"Go away right now! Otherwise, I'll kick you away," Gu Ning snapped with a cold glance.

Facing the great pressure from Gu Ning, those hoodlums trembled in horror, escaping away without delay. However, before they left, one of them threatened, "It's not the end yet, and we'll be back!"

All the people around them felt sorry for Zheng Peng, but they could do nothing to help him. Those hoodlums were from the Qing Gang after all.

After Zhao San's group was gone, the onlookers dispersed too.

"Well, I think that I will have to close my store and leave City Teng now," Zheng Peng sighed sadly. He was truly frightened this time, and he had already had the idea to close his store, because his store could barely stay afloat now.

Then he said to Gu Ning again, "Miss, I can tell that you're not afraid of the Qing Gang, but the Qing Gang isn't some organization that you can have bad blood with. I think you better leave now!"

"Mr. Zheng, don't worry. Since I'm already involved, I'll help you solve the problem," Gu Ning said.

"What?" Zheng Peng was quite surprised. He didn't have any hope that someone would be willing to help him out of this mess.

Although Zheng Peng was indeed in need of help, he didn't want other innocent people to be involved, so he declined. "Miss, I understand that you're kind and warm-hearted, but you could be in danger once you annoy the Qing Gang. "

Zheng Peng didn't want her to be in danger because of him, which proved that he was an upright man.

Actually, Gu Ning had her own plan too.

She was looking for an upright man to help her manage the jade provider that she was going to open, and Zheng Peng was a great choice, but she still needed time to know more about Zheng Peng.

However, since he was able to run such a big store, he must be able to some extent.

Chapter 266: Open A Jade Provider

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Ning made up her mind to purchase raw materials herself so that she could get all the raw materials that contained jade.

"If the Qing Gang is going to get revenge on you, do you really think that you can get rid of it?" Gu Ning asked.

Hearing that, Zheng Peng was struck dumb and his face immediately turned pale. Indeed, if the Qing Gang was determined to get revenge on him, he absolutely couldn't escape from it. The Qing Gang's influence stretched across this whole country.

Gu Ning thought for a while before she said, "Mr. Zheng, if you're going to close this store, I would like to hire you as my employee in my jade provider company. What do you say?"

"What?" Zheng Peng was surprised. This young girl runs her own business?

Gu Ning took out a piece of name card from her backpack handing it to Zheng Peng. "This is my name card. I've heard many positive comments of you from the citizens around here. I believe that you're also an excellent businessman, and I lack an aide like you right now. If you're willing to work for me, we can have a deeper conversation."

Zheng Peng didn't answer immediately, but hesitated for a while. "If you don't mind that I may cause you trouble from the Qing Gang, of course I'm willing to work for you."

Zheng Peng was a sophisticated man. Although he was worried that Gu Ning might get in trouble because of him, he sensed from her attitude that she really wasn't afraid of them.

Either she was from a powerful family, or she had some type of relationship with the Qing Gang. Either way, she was truly not afraid of the Qing Gang, so he trusted her.

In the beginning, Zheng Peng thought that Gu Ning probably wanted to help him, so she offered to let him work in her company. However, Gu Ning then told him that she appreciated his ability and character, which was quite inspiring and encouraging. Therefore, Zheng Peng accepted her offer.

He wasn't worried that Gu Ning could be trying to deceive him because she had saved his life. And he was willing to follow her lead.

"Very well, then we…" Gu Ning suddenly stopped, because she thought of Leng Shaoting who had been ignored for so long. She felt a little guilty, looking at Leng Shaoting. Leng Shaoting noticed, and said, "Don't worry, I'm free today."

In fact, Leng Shaoting badly wanted to be alone with Gu Ning, but he understood that she needed to work.

Gu Ning felt moved due to Leng Shaoting's consideration. She also wanted to be alone with him, but business was more important right now.

After that, Zheng Peng guided Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting up to the second floor. Zheng Peng's store was 40 square meters in size with two stories, and he normally discussed business with special guests on the second floor.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting sat down, while Zheng Peng went to prepare cups of tea for them.

"Uncle Zheng, the thing is that I'm going to open a jade provider," Gu Ning said. Since Zheng Peng agreed to work for her now, there was no need for Gu Ning to call him Mr. Zheng like a stranger. "However, I'm still a student right now, and I need a qualified manager. I think that you are an excellent choice. You don't need to worry about the source of raw materials or clients, because I'll handle them. All you need to do is manage the company well."

"What? A jade provider?" Zheng Peng was shocked.

A jade provided required a large amount of raw materials, while stone gambling was a highly risky business. It was hard to cut out jade, let alone a large amount of it. Otherwise, there would be many jade providers in the market instead of just a few. Moreover, it was even harder to cut out high quality jade.

"Yes, I have my own skills of stone gambling, and it's not difficult for me to cut out jade. Otherwise I wouldn't have had the idea to open a jade provider. I trust you so I will tell you the secret, and I only hope that you can be loyal to me," Gu Ning said.

Her own skills of stone gambling?

Hearing that, Zheng Peng was surprised. This young girl was totally beyond his imagination.

Zheng Peng then said with sincerity, "Miss Gu, since I'm willing to follow your lead, you absolutely have my loyalty. I think that I can prove it in the coming days."

Indeed, actions spoke louder than words. Although Gu Ning was willing to trust Zheng Peng, it didn't mean that he was completely trustworthy. If he wanted to win her complete trust, he had to prove his loyalty in the future.

"Could you please tell me your source of raw materials?" Gu Ning asked.

"There are seven raw material providers in City Teng, and the Zhang Family, the Wang Family as well as the Lu Family are well-known for their stability and size. We need to sign contracts with them, and once we sign the contract, we can't cooperate with other raw material providers any more. As for me, I purchase raw materials from the Wang Family," Zheng Peng replied.

The Wang Family? Gu Ning suddenly had an idea.

Although she hadn't signed the contract with the Zhang Family yet, they established their alliance already. The Zhang Family would keep supplying raw materials for her. However, all she wanted was raw materials with jade inside, and the Zhang Family couldn't satisfy her need. She couldn't take all the raw materials that contained jade away from the Zhang Family after all, but the Wang Family was different. There was already a grudge between her and the Wang Family, and she naturally wouldn't be considerate for them.

Gu Ning thought for a while before she opened her mouth. "Uncle Zheng, please take me to purchase a batch of raw materials from the Wang Family under your name tomorrow."

"No problem," Zheng Peng answered.

"Oh, by the way, do you own this store or do you rent it?" Gu Ning asked. She planned to use this store as a reception.

"I own it," Zheng Peng replied.

"Would you mind leasing this store to me as a reception for our company?" Gu Ning asked.

"Of course not!" Zheng Peng answered with alacrity.

"And do you know where there are factories available for renting? It's not appropriate to cut out a large amount of raw materials here," Gu Ning said. Factories were safer than the street of stone gambling too.

"Sure, there is a factory area a kilometer away from here to the right. The area is equipped with high-level safety facilities, but the rent is a little high," Zheng Peng said.

"As long as it's safe, I don't care about its price," Gu Ning said. A factory wouldn't be more expensive than the raw materials.

"Oh, how many workers do you have in your store?" Gu Ning asked.

"Three. One is an accountant, and the other two are responsible for cutting raw materials," Zheng Peng answered.

"Please ask them whether they're willing to join my company. I can pay them a good salary," Gu Ning said.

"Sure, I will," Zheng Peng said. Actually, he knew that they would agree even without having to ask.

Gu Ning and Zheng Peng finished their discussion for now, and they would talk more about the factory later after they signed the contract.

After that, they signed the contract for leasing the store and Gu Ning transferred a year's rent to Zheng Peng.

She needed to register her company first before she was going to be able to sign the labor contract.

When they walked out of Zheng Peng's store, Leng Shaoting said to Gu Ning, "Let me help you with the registration."

"Great!" Gu Ning didn't reject. It would take a long time if she went to do it herself.

Gu Ning then handed all of the documents to Leng Shaoting. The name of her company was Colorful Jade Provider. She had done her homework beforehand, and the name wasn't registered yet.

It was 5:30 pm already, so Leng Shaoting planned to deal with the registration tomorrow.

Gu Ning along with Leng Shaoting went to go eat. However, before they left the street of stone gambling, Gu Ning received Qiao Ya's call. She didn't realize that they were still in the store until now.

Qiao Ya told Gu Ning that some people had caused trouble in their store. Gu Ning was displeased and went straight back to her store.

Leng Shaoting followed Gu Ning, going back to her store. When he saw Gao Yi and Qiao Ya, he gave them a cold look, which made Gao Yi and Qiao Ya feel stressed.

Gao Yi and Qiao Ya didn't know Leng Shaoting, but they sensed that the man knew them and stared at them unkindly.

Gu Ning also noticed that, and she immediately interrupted them. "They both work for me."

Leng Shaoting drew his look back, but remained silent.

"And he's my boyfriend. Please don't worry." Gu Ning comforted them. Gao Yi and Qiao Ya felt a little relieved. Gao Yi and Qiao Ya didn't regard Gu Ning as a young girl, so it wasn't surprising that she had a boyfriend. Her boyfriend looked so powerful. From their rich experience of years, they were aware that the man was much stronger than them. However, no matter how strong or powerful he was, they only cared that he wasn't threatening them.

Gu Ning's sight fell on three men who were seated, trembling in fear in the corner. All of them were black and blue. Apparently, Gao Yi and Qiao Ya had already taught them a lesson.

"Boss, they claimed that the Wang Family sent them here," Qiao Ya said seriously.

The Wang Family?

Without a doubt, it had to be Wang Hongming, because Gu Ning only had bitter conflict with him. She knew that Wang Hongming wouldn't let it go easily, so she wasn't surprised now, but Leng Shaoting was mad. He gave those men an icy glance, and those men instantly felt threatened.

Let alone those men, even Gu Ning along with Qiao Ya and Gao Yi thought that it was frightening.

Gu Ning pulled Leng Shaoting's hand at once. "It's fine."

Leng Shaoting held Gu Ning's hand in his palm and relaxed.

"Let them go! It's no big deal, but if the Wang Family dares to do it again, we'll fight back then," Gu Ning said. It wasn't because she was kind, but she thought that it wasn't necessary to annoy the Wang Family just because of this small trouble.

Then she looked to those men and warned, "Tell the man behind you that if it happens again, we'll fight back. Now get lost!"

Hearing that, the three men escaped away without delay.

"Gao Yi, Qiao Ya, please stay here for a while longer. I need to find a suitable factory right now, and I'll rent it once I find it. Then we can move all the stuff there, in case the Wang Family tries to cause us more trouble," Gu Ning ordered.

Although she wasn't afraid of the Wang Family, she didn't like trouble either. Thus she had to settle the factory as soon as possible.

"No problem!" Gao Yi and Qiao Ya replied.

Then Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting left for the factory that Zheng Peng had mentioned.

It wasn't early now, but it wasn't late neither.

On their way, Gu Ning finally had time to call Situ Ye.

Leng Shaoting felt slightly uncomfortable, but he understood that it was better to let Situ Ye handle the mess caused by members of the Qing Gang.

Situ Ye answered Gu Ning's call and said, "Hi, what's up?"

"Well, actually something terrible just happened, and I do hope that you can help me." It was a little embarrassing for Gu Ning to bother Situ Ye.

"What happened?" Situ Ye asked.

"The thing is…" Gu Ning briefly told Situ Ye what had happened in Zheng Peng's store and that Zheng Peng now worked for her. "Would you please help me talk to the senior management of the Qing Gang and stop causing Zheng Peng trouble in City Teng? He is indeed innocent," Gu Ning said revealing the fact that she already knew that Situ Ye was the head of the Qing Gang.

Although Situ Ye normally didn't bother himself with such trifles, he was annoyed when Gu Ning was involved.

"Sure, I'll handle it," Situ Ye answered with alacrity.

Gu Ning thanked him before she hung up.

"How did you meet those two?" Leng Shaoting asked Gu Ning this time and sounded serious.

The two were of course Gao Yi and Qiao Ya.

Chapter 268: A Huge Sensation in City Teng

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Ning understood that Leng Shaoting was worried about her safety, so she didn't hide the truth but just omitted some details. "They had been chased by killers and badly injured. I rescued them and so they work for me now. I already got a hacker to remove their names from the wanted list, so they're safe now."

In actual fact, Leng Shaoting didn't know much about Gu Ning. He only knew her family background and some of her personal information, thus he had always been curious about why she was so excellent at kung fu and had expert marksmanship. Her professional ability was even better than senior members of the Special Forces. Moreover, her outstanding business acumen and skills of stone gambling also impressed Leng Shaoting. She even casually got a hacker to remove their names from the wanted list.

Leng Shaoting wasn't confident that the most skillful programmer in the Red Flame could do that. He believed that only several of the top hackers in this country were able to do such a thing.

As Gu Ning's boyfriend, he naturally wanted to know more about her, but he knew that it was her privacy. If she had no intention to tell him, he wouldn't ask.

Gu Ning, in fact, knew very little about Leng Shaoting as well. She only knew that he was a military officer, a major general, who came from the capital, but she knew nothing about his family.

They didn't ask each other for more information because it wasn't the right time yet. Although they were boyfriend and girlfriend, they hadn't been together for very long.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived at the factory area within minutes.

This factory area was built less than five years ago, and it was still relatively new. It was large and divided into many small areas. There was an independent gate to each small area. To get through the gate, one had to have a pass, or an ID card. And there were at least four to eight factory buildings which belonged to one company or several companies in each area.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting decided to check whether there were factories available for renting.

Fortunately, there were many empty factories. Although Gu Ning only needed a large room, she had the intention to expand her business, so a large room wasn't enough.

In the end, she chose a whole factory building which was 400 square meters in size with three floors and an underground room. In addition, it was for sale now and its price was thirty-six million yuan.

Gu Ning thought that it wasn't a bad idea to buy this whole building, so she planned to take a look. After that, she called the seller's number.

The seller immediately came over when he received Gu Ning's call. He did not live far from this factory area, so he arrived after 10 minutes.

Under the guidance of the seller, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting followed him in walking through the building.

There was a garage which could accommodate four cars along with an empty warehouse on the first floor. And the 100 square meter large office area was on the second floor. There were three offices, a meeting room, a reception, a washroom, a pantry in the office area and an empty warehouse took up the rest of the second floor. On the third floor, there was a 100 square meter large canteen and another empty warehouse on the other side.

The building had an elevator from the underground room to the third floor for the convenience of delivering goods.

Gu Ning was satisfied. Since she liked it, she didn't hesitate to buy this building. However, the Real Estate Bureau was about to get off work, so she had to wait for tomorrow to finish the legal procedure. Therefore, she signed the contract with the seller and paid a deposit of a hundred thousand yuan first. And the seller handed the key to Gu Ning.

Gu Ning then got the pass which she could use to enter this small factory area.

Employees who worked here had to have a pass.

After settling the factory building, Gu Ning called Gao Yi at once. She told him to prepare a car and load it with the raw materials. She would come back to them and guide them to this factory area later.

At the same time, the name of Tang Aining and what she had done caused a huge sensation in both City Teng and the domestic jewelry industry. Some doubted its authenticity, because it was too shocking and too unbearable to be true.

In a luxury apartment in the capital, a young woman who was around 24-years-old was lying on the sofa playing on her phone. She was wearing a tight, black lace dress which accentuated her perfect body. She had long dark red curly hair with heavy make-up and looked charming. She was surfing the Internet, and suddenly a piece of news came into her sight. She was scared and jumped up from the sofa in anger after she noticed the name Tang Aining. She isn't dead?

The woman lost her appetite to read the contents, but enlarged the pictures in an attempt to identify whether the female was Tang Aining.

When she found out that the person in the pictures didn't resemble Tang Aining at all, the woman was greatly relieved. It's just the same name. She thought to herself.

"Yaxin, what's wrong?" A man who was around 30-years-old walked out of a bedroom. He noticed that the woman looked a little panicked. The man was in a black suit and had a handsome face.

The woman was exactly Tang Aining's half-sister, Tang Yaxin, while the man was Qi Ziyue who had schemed against Tang Aining along with Tang Yaxin.

"Oh, nothing. I just read some shocking news," Tang Yaxin replied. Although she was sure that the Tang Aining in the pictures wasn't her half-sister, she still panicked for no reason. Besides, she had an unusual feeling that Tang Aining wasn't dead. However, she refused to believe it, because they had witnessed Tang Aining's body being burned in fire.

"What news?" Qi Ziyue walked over.

Tang Yaxin gave her phone to Qi Ziyue. The man was also shocked by the name, Tang Aining and grabbed her phone without delay.

Chapter 269: Master Bai

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

He ignored the content directly like Tang Yaxin had done, and enlarged the pictures to check the female in them.

Qi Ziyue relaxed as well after he figured out that this Tang Aining wasn't the one that they knew, but he was amazed by the content afterwards. "What? This woman cut out over 30 pieces of jade continuously? It's so incredible!"

"What?" Hearing that, Tang Yaxin was shocked too.

Although the Tang Family wasn't involved in the jewelry industry, they heard a lot about stone gambling. It was a highly risky business, but this woman could cut out over 30 pieces of jade one after another. They doubted its authenticity, but were still amazed.

In City G, a friend of Master Bai's called him after the shocking news. They were both jade lovers, so they shared a lot of news concerning jade.

After hearing the news, Master Bai was more than shocked now. He believed that the woman was Gu Ning because she was the only one who had such an outstanding ability of stone gambling that he knew of till now.

Master Bai finished the conversation with his friend in a hurry, and looked it up on the Internet.

When Master Bai saw those pictures, he was sure that the woman was Gu Ning. Although the two didn't resemble at all, he had met Gu Ning after she changed her clothing, thus he was certain that he was right.

This girl is truly unbelievable! Master Bai thought to himself. How come her judgments are so correct every time?

Master Bai called Gu Ning at once. Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were on the way back to the street of stone gambling at this time.

Seeing that the caller was Master Bai, Gu Ning understood that he must have read the news.

"Hi, Grandpa Bai," Gu Ning said.

"Hi, I heard the Queen of Jade has cut out over 30 pieces of jade in City Teng. It was you, right?" Master Bai asked.

"Yes," Gu Ning didn't hide the truth.

"Jesus!" Master Bai was shocked. "You really amazed me this time! It's so unbearable! And why didn't you leave the high quality jade for me? I can pay you!"

Master Bai was a little mad.

Gu Ning didn't know what to say, but tried to explain, "Grandpa Bai, please don't worry. I've already saved many pieces of high quality jade for you! They're even better than those I've cut out in City Teng."

In fact, Gu Ning had several raw materials which contained jade with thicker power than the top-level jade she had already cut out.

"Really? That will be so nice! When will you be City G again?" Master Bai was thrilled, and couldn't wait to meet Gu Ning.

"I've been busy recently, and I'm afraid that I won't be coming to City G until the holidays are over," Gu Ning answered.

"Fine." Master Bai was disappointed.

Gu Ning chatted with Master Bai for a while longer. Master Bai reminded her to be careful because City Teng was well-known for its high crime rate and was located at the border of the country.

Although Gu Ning wasn't an ordinary girl and was excellent at kung fu, she should still take good care of herself.

Master Bai called Master Yan and Master Fu without delay after he hung up the call with Gu Ning. Master Yan and Master Fu were also shocked, but Master Bai told them that Gu Ning was busy, so they didn't call Gu Ning directly.

Gu Ning went to Zheng Peng's store later.

Zheng Peng had already sold the rest of the raw materials to other shops at a low price. There were two machines left in the store, so Gu Ning directly took it, along with her raw materials, to the factory building.

Zheng Peng told Gu Ning that those hoodlums from the Qing Gang had come to his store and apologized to him.

Gu Ning believed in Zheng Peng's character, but she still reminded him to be loyal to her. Otherwise, the Qing Gang could cause him more trouble.

Zheng Peng was clearly aware of that, and he would never betray Gu Ning.

Then Gu Ning transfer five hundred thousand yuan to Zheng Peng for the redecoration of this store. They would make alterations to this store and paint the walls. The counter would be kept where it was. And the pantry as well as the lounge would be set to the side of the counter.

Gu Ning told Zheng Peng to buy a whole new set of sofas with more seats. In Gu Ning's eyes, furnishing was very important, because it left the first impression on guests.

The shop board would also be changed into Colorful Jade Provider Office .

Those small changes were finished within a day.

After that, Gu Ning told Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to put the raw materials along with the machines onto the second floor of the factory building.

It was already 7 pm when they finished placing the raw materials correctly.

Gu Ning told Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to guard the factory tonight, and that they would change the locks tomorrow.

Gao Yi and Qiao Ya of course wouldn't disobey Gu Ning's order.

There were supermarkets and diners in this factory area, so Gao Yi and Qiao Ya went to dine together in a small restaurant and bought daily necessities in a supermarket. There were plenty of rooms in the factory building, so they stayed in the same room for tonight.

"What do you want to eat now?" Leng Shaoting asked Gu Ning after they left the factory area.

"Well, since we're in City Teng, we have to try its specialties!" Gu Ning replied.

"Sure," Leng Shaoting said.

Chapter 270: I Don't Care About the Wang Family!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

They weren't familiar with City Teng, so they followed the GPS, driving to a famous local restaurant.

Of course, they made a reservation on the phone before they went there. The restaurant was extremely popular, but it wasn't big and only had 10 private rooms along with 10 tables in the hall. Thus it was hard to get a reservation from 6 pm to 7 pm when most people had dinner. And the restaurant was always full of people.

Luckily, Gu Ning reserved the final private room and they would arrive there after 10 minutes.

"Don't you need to fulfill you task? Why do you still have time to be with me?" Gu Ning asked Leng Shaoting.

"Well, actually I didn't need to join them this time, but because of you, I came here," Leng Shaoting told Gu Ning the truth and she was touched.

"Where will you stay tonight?" Gu Ning asked. Somehow she felt nervous and anticipated the answer. She had to admit that she was looking forward to spending the whole night with him.

"I'll stay with you," Leng Shaoting said naturally.

Gu Ning flushed a little and didn't know what to say next.

Gu Ning's silence made Leng Shaoting think that she was mad. He was anxious and asked, "Aren't you willing to stay with me?"

"Of course I am," Gu Ning said at once.

Hearing that Leng Shaoting relaxed.

A few minutes later, they arrived, and the hall was filled with people. Many were even waiting outside for empty seats.

This small restaurant wasn't a fancy hotel at all, but it had its own special style of decoration. Many rich people also came here due to its delicious food.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went straight to their reserved private room. However, just as they walked into the passage, they heard a noisy argument from inside the private room.

"Miss Wang, I'm sorry. This private room has already been reserved. Please wait for a little while longer." the hotel manager said politely.

"No! I don't care who reserved it. I want it now!" a female voice said arrogantly.

Gu Ning immediately recognized the voice. The female was Wang Xinyan.

To Gu Ning's surprise, they met each other in an argument once more. Wang Xinyan enjoyed grabbing things from others so much that she just grabbed the raw material from Gu Ning today and now she tried to grab Gu Ning's reserved private room.

"Miss Wang, please don't cause us trouble," the manager said resignedly.

"How come I'm the one who is causing trouble here? I'm the daughter of the Wang Family. It's your honor that I choose to dine here. If you dare to stop me again, I can make you close your restaurant!" Wang Xinyan threatened.

"Exactly! How dare you act against the Wang Family?" Several boys and girls who were standing along with Wang Xinyan supported her orally.

"You…" The manager was annoyed but indeed didn't dare to argue with her any longer.

At this time, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting walked in. "We have reserved this private room, do you want to grab it from us?"

"So what?" Wang Xinyan looked over saying with disdain. However, when her gaze fell on Leng Shaoting, she was stunned by his extraordinarily handsome appearance.

He's so handsome! Wang Xinyan thought to herself. She had never met such a handsome man before! Even those male idols or stars were barely comparable to him.

Gu Ning understood that Leng Shaoting's appearance was super attractive to girls wherever he went, but she was uncomfortable when those girls fixed their eyes at Leng Shaoting. Anyway, Leng Shaoting was her boyfriend, and those girls could do nothing about it. However, when Wang Xinyan made eyes at Leng Shaoting, Gu Ning was extremely displeased, because she already disliked Wang Xinyan.

Seeing Leng Shaoting, Wang Xinyan forgot to argue with Gu Ning, but stepped towards Leng Shaoting directly.

"Hi, nice to meet you. My name is Wang Xinyan. I'm the daughter of the Wang Family, which is one of the four most powerful families in City Teng," Wang Xinyan said with great pride while holding out her hand to Leng Shaoting.

However, Leng Shaoting remained expressionless, as if Wang Xinyan didn't exist. Wang Xinyan felt embarrassed and snapped, "Hey! I'm talking to you! Are you dumb?"

Leng Shaoting still ignored her, and stayed calm, but Gu Ning couldn't tolerate it anymore. She squinted and warned, "Mind your words. Stay away from my man, b*tch."

"How dare you say that to me?" Wang Xinyan was irritated.

"You deserve it," Gu Ning said.

"You…" Wang Xinyan was mad.

"What do you think you are? How dare you humiliate Miss Wang? Do you know how powerful the Wang Family is?" a girl who was with Wang Xinyan threatened.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting finally reacted. He gave the girl a cold sharp glance, and the girl was frightened. She could barely breathe now. All the other people who were with Wang Xinyan felt threatened. This man wasn't someone that they could mess with.

"The Wang Family? I don't care about the Wang Family! No matter who you are, if you dare to humiliate Ningning, I'll unseat your whole family," Leng Shaoting said icily, which scared everyone a lot. Their first reaction wasn't to doubt Leng Shaoting's words; they were truly afraid that he would unseat the Wang Family, because Leng Shaoting had an air of power.

Wang Xinyan had always been arrogant, and was used to being flattered by people around her, so she didn't believe that the man before her eyes could hurt the Wang Family. "Who do you think you are? Do you really think that you have the ability to unseat the Wang Family?"
