Although Master Leng wanted to eat the food that Gu Ning cooked for him, he didn't want to bother her when he heard that Gu Ning was leaving tomorrow. Therefore, he proposed to dine outside and wait for a chance to eat the food that she cooked for him.
Gu Ning didn't ask Master Leng where they were going to eat, because they were old and had different tastes. She was afraid that Master Leng wouldn't like their food.
Master Leng understood that Gu Ning cared about them, so he didn't hesitate and directly chose a place.
They all liked places with a good environment and light food, so they chose a mountain villa not far away from Family Leng.
It was still early, and it wasn't time for lunch yet. They only made an appointment for dinner, so they would arrive at the mountain villa before 6 pm.
Gu Ning was going to the Shengning Organization right now.
Zi Beiying sent a message to Gu Ning, Xu Jingchen and Xu Qinyin once she got on the plane.
Gu Ning and Xu Qinyin both replied that they had a safe trip, while Xu Jingchen read Zi Beiying's message. Xu Jingchen read it for a long time.
Zi Beiying's plane was about to take off, so she had to turn off her phone.
Before she turned off her phone, Zi Beiying hoped to see Xu Jingchen's reply, but unfortunately she didn't get any, so she turned off her phone in the end.
When Zi Beiying's phone was turned off, Xu Jingchen finally got his mind back and replied to Zi Beiying's message.
Gu Ning was free that day, so she stayed in the company for the whole day. At 4: 30 pm, they left for the mountain villa that Master Leng had booked.
Although the time was set at six o 'clock, it was still early. It would only take half an hour to go to the villa, but as the younger generation, it was better to go earlier. If the elders arrived first and they were late, it would be somewhat disrespectful.
When Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived at the mountain villa, it was 10 pm. Master Leng and the others weren't there yet, so Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting walked around in the yard.
They had already booked a private room, so they didn't worry that there wouldn't be enough rooms.
This mountain villa was called Phoenix Mountain Villa. It was an antique building with a lot of greenery and beautiful scenery. There were pavilions, rockeries, gardens, and bamboo forests.
Those who could open such a big hotel villa in the capital usually didn't lack money, so the greenery was relatively large. It was because of the beautiful scenery that it attracted people.
However, it wasn't easy to keep the guests.
Most of the guests who came to Phoenix Mountain Villa were from the upper class. It wasn't because Phoenix Mountain Villa had any rules, but because it was a high-end place, it cost a lot.
However, it wasn't too much, because a meal could cost thousands of yuan. Many people could afford it, but ordinary people wouldn't spend thousands of yuan to dine here.
While they were walking, Gu Ning suddenly sensed the air of a cultivator.
Then, Gu Ning looked towards the direction where the air came from.
In a private room, an old man in his sixties and a young girl in her seventeen or eighteen were sitting opposite each other. The aura of a cultivator was coming from them.
Gu Ning knew that cultivators had sharp senses, so she moved her eyes away after a glance.
There was a swing about five meters away from the door of the private room. Gu Ning wanted to know what they were talking about, so she said to Leng Shaoting, "Shao Shaoting, I want to sit on the swing."
Gu Ning didn't tell Leng Shaoting about the cultivator right now, because it wasn't a suitable time for her to talk about it.
"Sure," Leng Shaoting said, then they walked to the swing.
When they walked to the swing, Gu Ning sat on it and let Leng Shaoting push her.
Gu Ning sat on the swing, but paid attention to the sounds in the private room.
The swing was about five meters away, but it didn't affect Gu Ning's hearing, so she could clearly hear the conversation in the private room.
"Zongxue, I've already sent someone to investigate it. The boss of Colorful Jade Provider is a girl named Gu Ning. She's a senior in high school now, and she's going to take the National College Entrance Examination this year. I don't know which school she'll be going to at the moment, so I'll send you to the senior high school first. You can go to whichever school she'll be going to. You can find a chance to get to know her and make friends with her. If you do, it'll be convenient for you to make a deal with her, "the old man said seriously.
Hearing that, Gu Ning was greatly surprised. To her surprise, the old man wanted to make friends with her.
Anyway, the old man didn't want to do anything bad to her, so Gu Ning wasn't mad at all. Instead, she was happy to see the old man trying to get close to her, because she could learn more about cultivators through the old man.
"Sure, grandpa," Baili Zongxue said obediently.
Baili Zongxue, the heiress of the Baili family, the most powerful family in the cultivation world.
This old man was the patriarch of the Baili family, Baili Qifeng.
After Baili Qifeng learned that Colorful Jade Provider had cut out a lot of jade in the mortal world, but the supply was limited, he had an idea. He sent Baili Zongxue, who was the same age as Gu Ning, to make friends with Gu Ning.
They also wanted to get more jade, and hoped that Baili Zongxue could make friends with Gu Ning, so it would be convenient for them to make more deals with Gu Ning. They had no intention to hurt Gu Ning.
In addition, they wouldn't ask for it for free, so they would pay the price.
Baili Zongxue was 17 years old this year, and she was only a freshman in high school. She had to directly jump to the senior high school in order to catch up with Gu Ning.
To jump to the senior high school, one had to have a good relationship with Gu Ning. Baili Zongxue already had a good relationship with Gu Ning, so she only invited Gu Ning to have a meal to express her gratitude.
Although Baili Zongxue was only a freshman in high school, her grades were very outstanding. Because she was a cultivator, she had a much better understanding and memory than ordinary people, so it was easy for her to study.
Therefore, it wasn't difficult for her to jump to the senior high school.
In the cultivation world, only the children of influential families had the right to come out of the mortal world to receive secular education.
After that, Baili Qifeng and Baili Zongxue chatted with each other for a while, and they talked about things that had nothing to do with cultivators. Therefore, Gu Ning didn't need to stay here any longer, so she went to the private room they booked with Leng Shaoting.
It was almost 5: 30 pm now, so Master Leng and the others should be arriving soon.
Although they agreed to arrive at 6 pm, they might not arrive on time. Normally, they would arrive ahead of time.
As expected, within five minutes after Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went back to the private room, Master Leng arrived first, followed by Master Leng, Leng Shaoxun.
Leng Shaoxun saw Master Leng walking out, so he asked him where he was going. Knowing that Gu Ning was going to treat the other masters to a meal, he followed them here.
