They all knew that Leng Shaoting wanted to have a private talk with Gu Ning, so none of them followed Gu Ning to see her off. They only said goodbye to her in the living room.
After they walked out, Leng Shaoting asked Gu Ning, "When did you meet my mother? Why didn't you tell me before? "
He wasn't questioning her, but was just confused.
Gu Ning briefly told Leng Shaoting the whole story. Gu Ning was so considerate of him, and Leng Shaoting was deeply touched. If it weren't for the fact that they were in Gu Ning's home, and there were so many people around, Leng Shaoting really wanted to hug her.
However, he couldn't do that now, so he could only watch her leave.
The car was ready to pick up Chu Peihan and the others, but Leng Shaoting couldn't go there now, so only Gu Ning could pick them up.
The car was parked at Shengshi Hotel. Leng Shaoting planned to let someone drive the car to Gu Ning, but Gu Ning declined. Gu Ning said that she could drive it herself.
Although Leng Shaoting couldn't go there, there were still six people including her, so Gu Ning couldn't drive her own car, because her car had five seats, and only five people could sit in it.
There were strict traffic checks in the capital, so it was better not to take too many people.
The car Leng Shaoting prepared for her was a seven-seater luxury business car, and it was enough for her to sit in.
Because it was still early, Gu Ning drove her own car back to Century City before she went to Shengshi Hotel.
Shengshi Hotel was located in every district of the capital. For the sake of convenience, Leng Shaoting arranged for Mu Ke and the others to stay in Shengshi Hotel in the southern district, which was closer to Century City.
After Gu Ning parked the car, she walked out to take a taxi. However, when she was about to reach the gate, she saw Baili Zongxue walking in. Baili Zongxue also saw Gu Ning.
Baili Zongxue hadn't seen Gu Ning for a long time. Seeing Gu Ning, Baili Zongxue was delighted. She immediately ran to her and greeted her, "Gu Ning, long time no see. Have you been busy recently?"
"Long time no see. I've been a little busy," Gu Ning said.
"By the way, I've also been accepted by Beijing University. Then, I can go to the same school as you." Baili Zongxue said with excitement. Although she approached Gu Ning with a purpose at the beginning, she also wanted to make friends with Gu Ning.
She had a purpose, but it wouldn't cause any harm to Gu Ning.
"Really? That's great! " Gu Ning, who was already aware of it, wasn't surprised at all, but she still pretended to be surprised and happy on the surface.
"By the way, a few days ago, I accidentally cut my hand. After using your company's medicine, the bleeding stopped immediately. Then, it formed a scar in a few hours. In just two days, the scar is gone. That's amazing! Anyway, I think the formula is the same as that of other companies. Did you add any magic pills into it? " Asked Baili Zongxue with excitement and admiration. However, when she said that, she paid special attention to Gu Ning's expression.
Baili Zongxue was aware that there was magical power in Gu Ning's company's medicine and cosmetics. She said that just to test Gu Ning's reaction. She wanted to see whether Gu Ning felt guilty or calm.
She thought that if Gu Ning felt guilty or uneasy, she might know something about magical power. Besides, magical power was a secret, so most people would feel guilty and uneasy when they were asked about it.
If she was calm, then she might not have known that the medicine was something no one knew about.
Baili Zongxue didn't think so, and Gu Ning wasn't an ordinary person, so she might not be able to see through it, but Baili Zongxue still wanted to have a try.
Hearing that, Gu Ning understood that Baili Zongxue was testing her, so she wasn't displeased and remained calm. "Yes, I'm very interested in you. There is indeed a kind of medicine in it that isn't written on the formula, but I can't tell you what it is, "said Baili Zongxue.
Seeing Gu Ning's calm reaction, Baili Zongxue thought that Gu Ning might not know that it was magical power, so she said, "Of course, it's a business. It's taboo to let others know your formula. "
Baili Zongxue had no intention to ask further about the medicine, because Gu Ning might suspect that she had an ulterior motive. After all, they weren't even close.
Even if they were close, it was taboo to talk about it.
However, what Baili Zongxue didn't know was that Gu Ning was already aware of her purpose. Gu Ning didn't mean any harm to Baili Zongxue, so she wasn't hostile to them.
"I have something else to deal with, so I have to go now. Let's meet again when we're free," said Gu Ning.
"Sure, let's meet again when we're free," said Baili Zongxue, then they separated.
After turning around, Baili Zongxue looked upset, because they hadn't found anything after such a long time.
Dongfang Ziyu and Wu Shunhua had been spying on Gu Ning before they suddenly went back to the cultivation world. Baili Zongxue didn't know whether they had found anything, so they went back to cultivate.
After all, the kung fu competition was coming.
Baili Zongxue hoped that the Dongfang family hadn't found anything. With the help of magical power, the Dongfang family would become stronger.
When Gu Ning walked to the roadside and waited for a car, she sensed the air of a cultivator approaching from the left. Therefore, Gu Ning knew that it wasn't Baili Zongxue, so she guessed that it must be Baili Zeyang.
After all, only Baili Zongyang and Baili Zongxue lived here.
However, when Gu Ning looked over, she was surprised to see Jing Jining.
Gu Ning was surprised to see Jing Jining here, but since he showed up here, he must be here for a reason.
Gu Ning didn't think that Jing Jining came for her. If it wasn't a coincidence, he must come for Baili Zongxue.
When Jing Jining walked to Gu Ning, Gu Ning politely greeted him. "Uncle Jing, what a coincidence!"
"Yeah. Do you have time? I have something to talk with you about, "said Jing Jining. He indeed didn't come for Gu Ning, but followed Baili Zongxue here. However, he accidentally found that Baili Zongxue knew Gu Ning, so he wanted to ask Gu Ning about it.
"Sure, but I only have 20 minutes," said Gu Ning. She knew that Jing Jining must have seen her talking with Baili Zongxue, so she guessed that Jing Jining wanted to ask her about her relationship with Baili Zongxue. Or he wanted to talk about Leng Shaoting.
