Hearing that Jing Yunyao got up, Gu Ning got up as well.
Before Gu Ning went downstairs, she heard some noises from the kitchen. She immediately knew that Jing Yunyao was cooking breakfast.
Gu Ning felt a little guilty that Jing Yunyao was cooking breakfast for her, so she went downstairs at once and walked into the kitchen. "Mother, let me do it!"
"It's fine. I'll do it. You just wait outside," said Jing Yunyao.
Gu Ning didn't insist, and walked out.
Gu Ning also noticed that the scars on Jing Yunyao's face were gone, but she wasn't surprised because it wasn't a big deal.
Before long, Jing Yunyao finished cooking breakfast and carried it out. Gu Ning wanted to help, but was rejected.
During breakfast, Gu Ning felt that Jing Yunyao's eyes were full of sympathy and love, which amused Gu Ning a little. She had a feeling that Jing Yunyao must be jealous of her.
"Mother, I see sympathy and affection in your eyes. Did you misunderstand something?" Gu Ning asked.
"No, of course not." Jing Yunyao denied it. No matter whether Gu Ning knew that she had overheard her call yesterday, she was unwilling to mention Gu Ning's sad past.
"From your appearance, it's very obvious! Did you overhear my call yesterday? "Gu Ning asked. She didn't want Jing Yunyao to misunderstand and worry about her.
Jing Yunyao was struck dumb for a second. Since Gu Ning brought it up, Jing Yunyao knew that Gu Ning wouldn't believe her if she denied it, so she admitted it. "Yes! I overheard it. "
Gu Ning already knew that Jing Yunyao had overheard it, so she wasn't surprised at all.
"Did you misunderstand that I'm 'Tang Aining'?" Asked Gu Ning. Although it was a question, she already had the answer in her heart. Otherwise, she would suddenly have sympathy for herself.
"Aren't you?" Jing Yunyao was struck dumb for a second and asked her back.
Although Gu Ning asked that, it was obvious that Gu Ning wasn't 'Tang Aining'.
Sure enough …
"No, 'Tang Aining' is already dead. I'm 'Tang Aining's' disciple, so I did it to avenge my master. I pretended to be 'Tang Aining' in order to make 'Tang Aining's' father more nervous. " Gu Ning explained. Since Jing Yunyao had overheard it, it wouldn't be good if she didn't explain it to her.
Although it wasn't a misunderstanding, 'Tang Aining' was already 'Gu Ning', so she could only treat her own people as' Gu.
"Oh, I see." Hearing that, Jing Yunyao was relieved.
After having breakfast, Jing Yunyao said to Gu Ning, "Ningning, if you're busy, you can go ahead. You don't need to stay with me. I'm not a child. I can take care of myself. "
Jing Yunyao didn't know whether Gu Ning was really going to work or not, but she knew that Gu Ning stayed with her on purpose.
She appreciated Gu Ning's kindness, but she didn't want to waste her time.
"I'm free right now. If I'm busy, I'll deal with it. Don't worry," Gu Ning comforted her.
Since Gu Ning said that, Jing Yunyao didn't know what to say. It seemed that Gu Ning didn't want her to stay.
Although Gu Ning didn't go anywhere for the time being, she didn't keep an eye on Jing Yunyao, because everyone needed privacy.
Actually, Gu Ning didn't keep an eye on Jing Yunyao, but she was worried that Jing Yunyao might need something.
At noon, Gu Ning received Ning Changkai's call. Ning Changkai told Gu Ning that Lanio Group from Country F wanted to buy Kouzi, and Peng Zijie, the vice president of the branch of Huaxia Group in the capital of Lanio Group, had visited him many times, but Gu Ning refused.
Lanio Group was one of the most famous cosmetics companies in the world, and its business covered more than 130 countries and regions. It was also one of the Fortune 500 companies in the world.
Lanio Group currently had nine cosmetics brands. Two of them were top-level brands, two were first-tier brands, two were second-tier brands, and the rest were third-tier brands.
Lanio Group was a second-tier brand.
The reason why Lanio Group was a B-list company was that Lanio Group started its business with Lanio at the very beginning.
Gu Ning wasn't surprised that Kouzi was targeted by such a large business group, because Kouzi indeed had that kind of influence. Gu Ning was also curious about Kouzi's position after Lanio Group bought it.
However, Gu Ning was displeased by Ning Changkai's coercion, so she asked, "What did he threaten?"
What Gu Ning hated the most was coercion. It was necessary to weigh the pros and cons in a normal negotiation, but if someone used his status to pressure her and harassed her after she rejected his offer, Gu Ning couldn't ignore it.
"He said that he's a relative of the Yuan family in the capital. If we don't agree, he'll make it impossible for us to survive in the capital," Ning Changkai said. If Ning Changkai didn't have such a powerful family background, he wouldn't have bothered Gu Ning.
Hearing that, Gu Ning was displeased. "Very well, I'd like to see how he's going to make it impossible for us to survive in the capital. If he comes again, give him my phone number, and I'll talk with him."
"Sure," Ning Changkai said. Although he was worried that Gu Ning wouldn't be able to handle it, Gu Ning was much stronger than him after all, so it would be impossible for him to deal with it.
Ning Changkai was worried that Gu Ning couldn't handle it, because he didn't know much about Gu Ning's family background, but he knew the Yuan family's status in the capital.
Although Ning Changkai was only a relative of the Yuan family, he might help them. As long as the Yuan family moved a finger, they would be in endless trouble.
After hanging up the call with Ning Changkai, Gu Ning called K and told him to investigate Peng Zijie, the vice president of Lanio Group and Huaxia, as well as his relationship with the Yuan family in the capital.
Although it seemed a little early to investigate Ning Changkai before they met, it was necessary to know one's enemy well, right?
Before long, K found out that Peng Zijie was indeed a relative of the Yuan family in the capital, but they weren't very close.
Peng Zijie was the husband of the younger sister of the eldest son of the Yuan family in the capital, which meant that Peng Shaojie was very close to the Yuan family.
Although the Peng family and the Yuan family had contact with each other, they rarely did, so they weren't very close.
Gu Ning couldn't help sneering. They were distant relatives, and they weren't close to each other. It was ridiculous.
