The Ge family wasn't rich, but it wasn't comparable to Gu Ning and Pegasus Entertainment. Both Pegasus Entertainment and Gu Ning had dozens of billions of yuan in assets, while the Ge family's business was only worth hundreds of millions of yuan.
"Ge Haodong, you're just an illegitimate son of the Ge family. You have no right to criticize me!" After being lectured by Ge Haodong, Ge Jiaying, who was already full of anger, suddenly exploded. Her tone was aggressive and humiliating.
Ge Haodong wasn't mad at all. It was a fact that he was an illegitimate son of the Ge family, but it didn't matter. He wasn't the only male heir of the Ge family, and the Ge family valued men over women. Otherwise, the Ge family wouldn't have brought him back.
Therefore, the Ge family would be his sooner or later.
"Even though I'm an illegitimate son, I'm the only son and heir of the Ge family, so I have the responsibility to protect the Ge family," Ge Haodong said with an annoying smile.
"You …" Hearing that, Ge Jiaying was mad. If it hadn't been for this illegitimate son, the Ge family would have been hers, but this illegitimate son just happened to exist in her family.
Therefore, Ge Jiaying hated Ge Haodong very much. She wanted to kill him, but she didn't dare to kill him.
"That's all I have to say. I hope you can keep it in your heart, or I can only tell my father about it," Ge Haodong said, then walked past Ge Jiaying and left.
"Ge Haodong, you …"
Ge Jiaying was mad, but she couldn't do anything in front of Ge Haodong. She was afraid that Ge Haodong would tell her father about it, and her father would protect Ge Haodong.
She didn't have a place in the Ge family now.
Ge Jiaying went into the washroom again, and didn't come out until she calmed herself down.
When she was back in the hall, Ge Jiaying stopped chatting with Gu Ning, because Gu Ning already made her attitude clear. If she continued to talk with her, she would be humiliated.
It wasn't entirely because of her self-awareness, but partly because of her pride. She felt that Gu Ning had humiliated her, so she didn't bother to pay attention to Gu Ning.
However, Ge Jiaying would still talk to the other directors and producers.
In such an occasion, no one would give anyone a hard time. Even if they didn't like it, they would still be polite on the surface.
At eight o 'clock, the banquet ended and everyone left.
Before they left, Gu Ning and Chu Peihan left together, and they changed into formal gowns before they left. It was too eye-catching if they went back in formal gowns.
Gu Ning planned to send Chu Peihan back to the Film Academy first, then return to Beijing University.
Because they were going from the city to Haicheng District, which was a long way, there were many roads in the countryside.
However, on their way back to Haicheng District, Gu Ning suddenly felt a strong wave of magical energy. Both of them belonged to cultivators.
Gu Ning suddenly felt anxious. She was worried that Leng Shaoting or Jing Yunyao might have run into people from the Jing family.
Although there were many cultivators in the capital and it might not be them, she couldn't help worrying about them.
Therefore, Gu Ning stopped the car by the roadside first.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem with your car? "Chu Peihan asked.
"Not really. I just think the air here is good, so I want to get out of the car to have some fresh air. Do you mind?" Gu Ning said.
"Why should I mind? I just drank some wine, so I want to have some fresh air, "said Chu Peihan. She didn't doubt it at all.
Gu Ning didn't drink because she needed to drive, but Chu Peihan drank a lot, so he really wanted to have some fresh air.
Although they were in the countryside, Chu Peihan wasn't afraid of anything. Ning was very good at kung fu, and she wasn't weak either. If someone really wanted to hurt them, they might be able to get away with it.
Therefore, they got out of the car.
Once they got out of the car, Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to see the direction of the wave of magical energy. She had to confirm it.
The place where the fight happened was on a mountain about 200 meters away from the road. The cultivator wasn't Leng Shaoting or Jing Yunyao, but it was Jing Jining. It was obvious that the cultivator was at a higher level than Jing Jining.
Therefore, Gu Ning couldn't ignore it.
Although she didn't have the jiao with her now and she might not be able to defeat the cultivator, it wouldn't be a problem if she cooperated with Jing Jining.
Gu Ning took out a power crystal at once and gave it to Chu Peihan. "Peihan, this can help you sober up. You can drive back first. I need to deal with something."
"Boss, this is the countryside …" Hearing Gu Ning's words, Chu Peihan was shocked. This was the countryside. Why did Gu Ning need to deal with something here?
Therefore, Chu Peihan was worried and anxious.
"I just got the news that a fugitive escaped into this mountain, so I need to track him down. Don't worry, I'll be fine. You know what I'm capable of, right?" Gu Ning made an excuse for Chu Peihan.
"But …" Chu Peihan was still worried, but he also understood that Gu Ning was a woman of her words, so it was useless for him to persuade her. "Alright, be careful. You have to be careful. Send me a message after you're done. "
"Sure," Gu Ning said, then ran up the mountain at a high speed. Chu Peihan was amazed by Gu Ning's speed, which was unbelievably fast.
After a long while, Chu Peihan finally got his mind back. He didn't think further, and took the power crystal that Gu Ning gave him before he got in the car and drove away.
She didn't want to stay here alone, because it wasn't safe.
It was 200 meters away, but Gu Ning arrived in front of them within 10 seconds.
When someone approached them, the two people who were fighting sensed it, but they didn't have time to avoid it. As soon as they stopped fighting, the person was already in front of them.
"Who are you?" The cultivator stared at Gu Ning with annoyance. He didn't expect that a mortal could come so fast.
"Why are you here?"
When Jing Jining saw Gu Ning, he was surprised at first, then frowned. He was worried that Gu Ning would be in danger.
Hearing Jing Jining's words, it was obvious that he knew the girl.
"I'm here to help you," said Gu Ning.
Although Jing Jining knew that Gu Ning wasn't an ordinary girl, he was facing a cultivator at a higher level than him.
Gu Ning's words were a joke in the other cultivator's eyes, so he said with sarcasm, "Well, you're just a mortal. Do you think that you can fight against me? "
