While waiting for Xu Jingchen and Zi Beiying to come, Leng Shaoting told Gu Ning about the vampires he saw during the last task.
Although Gu Ning believed in the existence of vampires, she had never seen one before, so she was surprised to hear that Leng Shaoting had met one.
"What do vampires look like?" asked Gu Ning. She wondered whether they were the same as those in the movies.
"They don't look much different from normal people. They have similar features to those of the Evil Practice, but they are of different races. Their skin is much whiter than ordinary people's, and they have a sense of evil," said Leng Shaoting.
In that case, they were indeed different from the vampires in the movies.
"We've met a lot of evil creatures these days! By the way, I forgot to tell you something. That day in City B, I met two ninjas from Country R. They knew about the existence of cultivators, so they came to investigate. Of course, they didn't know that those people were cultivators, but they knew that those people could use magic and fly, so they must be cultivators, "said Gu Ning.
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting looked a little upset. "The two vampires I met during the task also met cultivators, and they said that they wanted to go back and tell their leader, so I directly killed them."
Hearing that, Gu Ning looked a little upset. "It seems that we can't hide the existence of cultivators any longer. It's possible that it will cause a war."
Although it was very difficult for those people to investigate cultivators, it was inevitable that they would meet them.
Although it was a peaceful era now, and there wouldn't be wars easily, there were still a lot of open and secret fights. Nobody wanted another country to be stronger than them.
Now that Huaxia was developing so fast, many countries couldn't stand it. They had done a lot of things secretly, but it wasn't very effective.
Now that they knew about the existence of such a powerful person in Huaxia, they naturally felt threatened and wanted to eliminate this threat.
"I've already told the top leader about the vampires. So, Ningning, I might tell the top leader before more people know about the existence of cultivators so that he can be mentally prepared. I hope you don't mind." Leng Shaoting said. Although he had the right to make his own decision, he didn't know about it until he talked to Gu Ning. Therefore, he felt that it was better to tell Gu Ning about it. This was also a form of respect for Gu Ning.
"What's there to mind?! Under such circumstances, it's necessary to tell the leader, but it's better not to let more people know about it, or it will cause panic, "Gu Ning said.
With that, Leng Shaoting was relieved.
Half an hour after Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived, Xu Jingchen and Zi Beiying arrived.
"Hi, Shao Shaoting, Gu Ning."
Zi Beiying greeted Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning the moment she saw them. Zi Beiying, who was always careless, felt a little embarrassed at this moment, because Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning already knew about her relationship with Xu Jingchen.
Although there was still something going on between her and Xu Jingchen, it was still ambiguous.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Leng, Miss Gu," Mengda and Nan also greeted them politely.
"Nice to meet you. Please have a seat!" Gu Ning said, then Zi Beiying sat next to Gu Ning at once. Xu Jingchen also sat next to Zi Beiying, while Mengda and Nan sat next to Xu Jingchen.
"Gu Ning, Shao Shaoting, thank you so much. If it hadn't been for you, the Zi family wouldn't have been able to overcome this crisis!" Zi Beiying thanked Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning with gratitude.
If it hadn't been for Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning's help, the Zi family wouldn't have collapsed. After all, the Zi family was very rich, but it would have suffered a great loss.
No matter what, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning had done the Zi family a great favor, so the Zi family was very grateful to them.
Saying that, Zi Beiying handed a card to Gu Ning. "This is your reward."
"Thanks!" Gu Ning accepted it without hesitation. Since they had made an agreement in advance, Gu Ning accepted it without hesitation.
"It's my pleasure," Zi Beiying said.
Before long, the dishes were placed on the table, and they began to eat.
"Oh, Beiying, how long will you stay in Huaxia? If you stay here for a long time, it won't be convenient for you to stay in a hotel. If you don't mind, you can stay in my place for the time being, "Gu Ning said, because she knew that Zi Beiying wouldn't go back soon after coming here.
Although Zi Beiying came here with Xu Jingchen, they hadn't confirmed their relationship yet, so Gu Ning couldn't let Xu Jingchen arrange for Zi Beiying.
Xu Jingchen understood that, so he didn't interrupt when Gu Ning was talking.
If Zi Beiying stayed in a hotel, she could stay in the Jinlin Hotel for as long as she wanted, but a hotel wasn't as comfortable as a private house after all.
He also had several properties that Zi Beiying could live in, but he didn't know how to arrange it, so he let Gu Ning do as she pleased.
"Of course I don't mind, but it's inconvenient for me." Saying that, Zi Beiying glanced at Leng Shaoting. She thought that it wouldn't be convenient for them to live in a hotel together.
"It's not inconvenient at all. I rarely go back to live in a hotel, because I spend most of my time on campus. Even if I'm not on campus, I have other houses to live in. Occasionally, I'll go back with some friends on weekends, "Gu Ning said.
"Alright, I'll be nice." Since Gu Ning said so, Zi Beiying didn't hesitate to accept it.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were both very rich, so they definitely had more than one house.
When they were halfway through the meal, the door of the private room opened and Xu Jinlin walked in.
"Hi, how did you know that we're here?"
Leng Shaoting didn't tell Xu Jingchen that Xu Jinlin was here, so Xu Jingchen was surprised to see Xu Jinlin.
Zi Beiying couldn't help feeling nervous when she saw Xu Jinlin, as if she was meeting his parents, even though they weren't close yet.
"Nice to meet Shao Ting and Miss Gu. I invited them to dine together, but Shao Ting said that you and other friends would be here, so he wouldn't join us. I happened to have something to talk to you about, so I came here after the meal," Xu Jinlin said and sat down next to Xu Jingchen.
"What is it?" Xu Jingchen asked.
