After a quick glance, Gu Ning put her phone away and continued to eat.
After the meal, the group got up and left.
Coincidentally, when Gu Ning and the others walked into the hall, they saw Gu Qinxiang with three other men. Two of them had their backs facing each other, so Gu Ning couldn't tell their ages, but the one standing behind Gu Qinxiang was his secretary.
Gu Ning saw Gu Qinxiang, and Gu Qinxiang also saw Gu Ning.
However, when Gu Qinxiang saw Gu Ning, he felt embarrassed. He wanted to say hello to her, but didn't know how to.
Gu Ning already regarded Gu Qinxiang as a stranger, and thought that they would just pass each other by. However, when she saw his expression now, she felt a sense of forgiveness. She didn't think that it was necessary to let bygones be bygones.
Gu Qinxiang's friends noticed that he was absent-minded all of a sudden, so they followed his gaze and saw Gu Ning.
However, one of them recognized Gu Ning, and walked to Gu Ning with a smile.
"Miss Gu, what a coincidence to see you here," the man said with a warm smile. "You probably don't remember me, but we've met at the Su family's party before."
The man was a little humble when he talked to Gu Ning, because he had witnessed Gu Ning's outstanding ability in the Su family's house, and he admired her very much.
"I remember that you're Chairman Tai." With Gu Ning's excellent memory, she of course remembered the man's face, but she only knew his surname. She didn't know his identity.
Chairman Tai felt flattered that Gu Ning remembered him. "It's my honor to be remembered by Miss Gu!"
"Hi, Uncle Tai." The Tai family and the Su family were distant relatives, and they also cooperated with each other. Although Su Anya wasn't familiar with the man, they weren't strangers either, so she greeted him.
"Anya, I didn't see you until now!" Chairman Tai didn't notice Su Anya until now.
"It's fine," Su Anya said.
"Have you guys finished your meal? Miss Gu, why don't you give me face and let me treat you to a meal? "Chairman Tai said. He was not being polite. He really wanted to treat them to a meal.
Who wouldn't want to befriend such an outstanding person like Gu Ning? Unless it was those who were jealous and couldn't bear to see others doing well.
And he was no longer that kind of person.
"No, you can't do that." Su Anya stopped Gu Ning before she could say anything. "We're going to make Gu Ning pay for us today. If you pay for us, we won't be able to have a meal with her, so you can't do that."
Chairman Tai was stunned when he heard that.
Gu Ning smiled. "Thank you so much, Chairman Tai, but as Anya said, if you pay for our meal, it will be meaningless, so I have to turn you down."
Even if Su Anya didn't stop them, Gu Ning would still turn them down. Gu Ning wasn't the kind of person who would allow others to treat her to a meal.
"If that's the case, then forget it." Director Tai didn't force them. He just followed their wishes.
After the conversation with Chairman Tai, Gu Ning turned to look at Gu Qinxiang and coldly called him, "Uncle Tai."
Chairman Tai was surprised when he heard that. He abruptly turned to look at Gu Qinxiang. Gu Qinxiang is Gu Ning's uncle?
Even though Chu Peihan knew that Gu Qinxiang was Gu Ning's uncle, he was also surprised that Gu Ning would greet Gu Qinxiang. They knew a little about what had happened in the Gu family, so they thought that Gu Ning wouldn't be mad at Gu Qinxiang, let alone greet him.
However, they had no right to interfere in Gu Ning's personal affairs.
Gu Qinxiang was the most surprised one, because he didn't expect that Gu Ning would call him that, and he felt extremely flattered.
"Hi, Ningning, you're back!" Gu Qinxiang greeted Gu Ning with a humble attitude.
After so many things had happened, he completely gave in to Gu Ning, and realized that what he had done before was wrong.
Therefore, he didn't have the face to see Gu Ning.
"Miss Gu, is Mr. Gu your uncle?" Chairman Tai asked. Even though he had heard Gu Ning call Gu Qinxiang her uncle, he still wanted to confirm it, because it was related to his next decision.
Gu Qinxiang invited him to dine with them today because of a decoration project. Although Gu Qinxiang's company had a good plan, it wasn't a small project, and Gu Qinxiang's company was too small, so Chairman Tai was still worried.
However, if Gu Qinxiang was Gu Ning's uncle, Chairman Tai wouldn't be worried about Gu Qinxiang's company.
"Yes, he's my mother's biological older brother, and I follow my mother's surname," Gu Ning explained.
"I see!" Chairman Tai understood. He also had an answer in his heart, but he was still surprised that Gu Qinxiang was Gu Ning's uncle.
"Chairman Tai, uncle, we have something else to deal with, so we need to leave now," Gu Ning said.
"Sure, sure," Chairman Tai and Gu Qinxiang both said.
After that, Gu Ning and the others left together.
Gu Ning told An Qian and the others to leave first, and she went to pay the bill.
Once Gu Ning was gone, Chairman Tai said to Gu Qinxiang, "Mr. Gu, I think we can talk about our cooperation further. Why don't we go to the teahouse on the third floor?"
Hearing that, Gu Qinxiang understood what Chairman Tai meant. He was thinking about cooperating with him because of Gu Ning.
If there was no accident, Gu Qinxiang would be able to get the cooperation.
Gu Qinxiang was excited, and he was very grateful to Gu Ning.
He had a feeling that Gu Ning greeted him on purpose to let Chairman Tai know about their relationship, so that he could benefit from it.
Indeed, it was half of the reason, because she saw Gu Qinxiang's disappointed expression, and knew that she had no chance to cooperate with him. The other reason was that she had forgiven Gu Qinxiang, and she didn't want to hate him anymore since Gu Qinxiang had made up his mind.
Some people might think that Gu Ning wasn't firm enough to forgive those who had hurt her, and it wasn't something that a killer should have.
In her previous incarnation, she had been a killer, but not in this incarnation. She had experienced relatives, love, and friendship. She was no longer a cold-blooded person.
In addition, Gu Qinxiang's family had already been punished, and it wasn't unforgivable.
Some things couldn't be forgiven, but some things could be forgiven.
"Sure, sure," Gu Qinxiang said with excitement. After that, they walked to the elevator together.
When Gu Qinxiang walked away, he turned around and glanced at Gu Ning's back at the cashier with a complicated expression.
