Dongfang Qi didn't know that Zhang Yong was a spy of the Jing family, but Huang Ziwei found it out and told him about it.
After getting the answer, Gu Ning gave the power crystal to Dongfang Qi.
As for what Dongfang Qi said, Gu Ning didn't doubt it, because they needed to be investigated before they could be punished. She wouldn't just believe whatever Dongfang Qi said.
Of course, if Dongfang Qi lied to her, she wouldn't let him go.
Dongfang Qi told Gu Ning not to expose his real identity, and Gu Ning agreed.
After the talk, Gu Ning almost finished her coffee, so she left.
She had an appointment to dine with Zi Beiying in the afternoon, and she also invited Xu Qinyin.
Although Zi Beiying came to Huaxia with Xu Jingchen, Zi Beiying was her friend after all. Now that Xu Jingchen was on a mission, she naturally had to entertain Zi Beiying.
When Lady Xu found out that Xu Qinyin was going to dine with Zi Beiying, she insisted on going with them, because she was worried that her son couldn't handle the girl, so she wanted to do something for her son.
However, she didn't go with them in the end, because Master Xu stopped her. He said that if she went with them, she would scare the girl.
Lady Xu thought for a while and agreed, so she reluctantly agreed.
When Xu Qinyin left, Lady Xu reminded Xu Qinyin to put in a good word for Xu Jingchen several times, which amused everyone.
Gu Ning didn't spend much time talking with Dongfang Qi, so she arrived at the restaurant just in time. Zi Beiying and Xu Qinyin only arrived a few minutes later.
In fact, Zi Beiying invited Xia Maiqi, but Xia Maiqi was busy with work and couldn't come, so only the few of them came.
When Xu Qinyin met Zi Beiying, she didn't mention Xu Jingchen. She also didn't have the intention to tell her aunt, because it would embarrass both Zi Beiying and herself.
After Gu Ning arrived, they began to order dishes.
After the meal, they dispersed.
Gu Ning didn't go back to Century City with Zi Beiying, but went to Mountain River Garden, because she wanted to ask Jing Yunyao which family owned the Chengfeng Group and the Yaping Group.
Although Jing Yunyao hadn't been back to the cultivation world for more than 20 years, those companies had existed for decades, so Jing Yunyao certainly knew them.
Hearing the name of the Chengfeng Group, Jing Yunyao pulled a long face and said, "The Chengfeng Group belongs to the Jing family, while the Yaping Group belongs to the Dongfang family."
"What? The Yaping Group belongs to the Dongfang family? "
Gu Ning's focus wasn't on the Chengfeng Group, but the Yaping Group. She didn't think that the Dongfang family could be one of the two groups, but unexpectedly, it was the Dongfang family who sent two spies to spy on them.
Anyway, she had a rough idea now.
The Yaping Group belonged to the Dongfang family, but it wasn't in the same boat as Dongfang Qi.
It was very normal for big families to form cliques.
As for the Jing family behind the Chengfeng Group, Gu Ning wasn't surprised, because she knew that it was either the Jing family or the Yin family.
As for the Baili family, Baili Zeyang and his younger sister already got the power crystals, so they wouldn't send spies to spy on them. If there were spies from the Baili family, they wouldn't be on Baili Zeyang's side.
She still had this basic level of trust.
"What happened?" Jing Yunyao asked with concern.
Gu Ning said, "Here's the thing. Don't the medicines in Colaine have magical power? Today, Dongfang Qi from the Dongfang Family came to me and made a deal with me. He wanted to buy the most effective medicine in my medicine, which is the spiritual essence extraction. He told me that several spies had infiltrated Colaine's factory and company. I thought that Dongfang Qi was a member of the Dongfang family, and none of the spies he told me were from the Dongfang family. Maybe he just wanted to use me to get rid of the spies from other families so that the Dongfang family could monopolize the profits. To my surprise, the Dongfang family sent two spies to spy on me. Now it seems that Dongfang Qi must have some internal reasons, so he exposed the spies of the Dongfang family. "
"It's obvious that Dongfang Qi is a member of the second branch of the Dongfang family, and the spies must be from the first branch of the Dongfang family. Although the eldest son and the second son of the Dongfang family are biological brothers, they have the same father but different mothers, and they have been fighting against each other for a long time, "Jing Yunyao said.
"However, the second branch of the Dongfang family doesn't think about the big picture at all." Although Dongfang Qi did her a favor by finding out the spies without much effort, from another point of view, she thought that the second branch of the Dongfang family didn't know how to do things well.
"If the first branch of the Dongfang family succeeds, the big picture is of course good, but if they succeed, they will be closer to the position of the family head. How can the second branch of the Dongfang family tolerate that? In the cultivation world, the strong are respected, and seniority is only secondary. Therefore, they compete for the position of the head of the Dongfang family based on their strength, not seniority, "Jing Yunyao said.
Hearing that, Gu Ning understood.
"Now the Jing family also knows that there's magical power in the medicines. After the spies fail, I think the Jing family will take action. By then, it's only a matter of time before they find out about Shao Ting," Jing Yunyao said. She couldn't help feeling a little sad. Although she knew that it was only a matter of time, she still hoped that it would happen later, at least after Leng Shaoting became more and more powerful.
"Different situations call for different measures. Even if they find out about it, they may not be able to hurt Shao Ting. Even if Shao Ting can't defeat them, he can at least escape. As long as Grandpa Shangguan shows up, they won't be able to do anything to Shao Ting, "Gu Ning comforted, although she was also very worried.
Even though she knew that Leng Shaoting would be fine, it was inevitable that he would be injured. Even if he was injured, she didn't want to see it happen.
However, it didn't mean that it wouldn't happen even if she didn't want it to happen, so they had to think in a positive direction.
"Sure!" Jing Yunyao didn't want Gu Ning to worry about her, so she calmed down at once and stopped herself from thinking too much.
Tonight, Gu Ning slept in Mountain River Garden. She would go to deal with the spies tomorrow. As for cultivation, she could only wait until it was done.
Anyway, it didn't take much time to deal with it.
Sleeping in Mountain River Garden, Gu Ning could also try to practice. After all, there were no cultivators around, so she didn't need to worry about being discovered.
