871 Pick Leng Shaoting up

“Miss Gu, did you have a fight outside this hotel last night?” he asked.

Although it was a question, he already had the answer. However, he couldn’t believe that Gu Ning was so good at martial arts. She was only 18! Everyone would be shocked to know that.

“Yeah.” Gu Ning nodded. He must have witnessed the fight.

“Wow, outstanding people always gather together,” Xu Jinlin said. He was talking about Leng Shaoting.

“Miss Gu, please stay alert and be careful these days. They’re members of the gang after all,” Gong Zehan said out of kindness. He never bothered to get involved in others’ personal affairs, but he was willing to remind Gu Ning to be cautious since she and Xu Jinlin were acquaintances.

“Thanks, I will,” Gu Ning said.

The elevator stopped at the third floor, and Gu Ning waved good-bye to Xu Jinlin along with Gong Zehan.

“Hey, what happened between you two?” Gong Zehan asked Xu Jinlin once Gu Ning was gone.

Xu Jinlin sighed, then told him everything. Gong Zehan laughed out loud afterwards. “Seriously? It’s so funny!”

“Who is Leng Shaoting? It seems that you’re very afraid of him,” Gong Zehan asked again.

“He’s the eldest grandson of the Leng family in the capital and senior to Jinchen. And he always keeps a distance from women. If he finds out that I’ve struck up a conversation with his girlfriend, he’ll tell Jinchen to practice fighting skills with me. I’ll be punched to the ground,” Xu Jinlin said in fear.

“The eldest grandson of the Leng family?” Gong Zehan was greatly surprised. He knew that the Leng family and the Xu family were allies for generations, and he had heard of the cold eldest grandson of the Leng family. And the most admirable thing was that Leng Shaoting became a major general at such an early age, which had never happened before.

That was all Gong Zehan knew about Leng Shaoting.

…

When Gu Ning and her bodyguards walked into the booked private room, she received Leng Shaoting’s call. He was in the airport of the capital now, and would arrive at HK around 10:30 pm.

Gu Ning would pick him up later.

She didn’t remember that she had planned to visit the small island until all the dishes were placed on the table. However, since she forgot, she gave it up.

…

In the He family’s house.

Zuo Jiangkui dined in the He family’s house that afternoon. However, only He Siyin and He Hongjie were aware that Gu Ning was going to help them.

The moment Zuo Jiangkui was gone after dinner, He Hongjie told He Siyin to come have a talk in his study.

“You’re right. Jiangkui does maintain a secret relationship with Hong Yuefei and he has even met He Hongyuan in private,” He Hongjie said in a cold tone.

Hearing that, He Siyin was annoyed, but she wasn’t surprised.

“Father, you treat him so well, but he still wants to steal our family business!” He Siyin said in anger.

“Maybe he thinks that I’m doomed this time, so he wants to join another party. Once I find solid proof to prove that he has no loyalty to me, I’ll chase him away,” He Hongjie said, and made up his mind to get rid of anyone who dared to betray him.
