Chapter 121 Rescue
"No, I've only been here for a few minutes!" Gu Ning said, and then invited them to take a seat: "Come on, come on, sit down!"
Several people came over, and Zhou Zhenghong greeted them respectfully: "Mr. Bai, Mr. Yan, and Mr. Fu."
The order in which Zhou Zhenghong greeted people was opposite to that of Gu Ning, because among these three people, Old Bai had the highest status.
However, Gu Ning didn't know and was just greeting according to his level of familiarity.
Zhou Zhenghong could never have imagined that Gu Ning would know someone with such a powerful status, especially Old Bai.
"Boss Zhou" Mr. Fu and Mr. Yan knew Zhou Zhenghong, but they were not familiar with him. However, they responded to his greeting very politely.
Although they were curious about the relationship between Gu Ning and Zhou Zhenghong, they did not explore it because it was none of their business.
Zhou Zhenghong felt somewhat flattered when he received responses from Mr. Yan and Mr. Fu.
"Tsk tsk tsk! Girl, are you really the girl from yesterday?" Old Bai looked at Gu Ning, his jaw almost dropping in shock, and asked uncertainly.
Although Mr. Bai knew it a long time ago, he still couldn't believe it, because Gu Ning at this moment and Gu Ning yesterday were completely different people!
"Yes! Otherwise, how would I know that you are Mr. Bai!" Gu Ning said with a smile.
"Hahaha! That's true. But girl, you are really amazing. You are young and promising. You are young and promising!" Old Bai praised generously. This was the second time he said that Gu Ning was young and promising.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Bai," Gu Ning said modestly.
"Girl, don't blame me for coming here uninvited, right?" asked Old Bai.
"Of course not. It's Gu Ning's honor that Mr. Bai is here!" Gu Ning said. Although she didn't know Mr. Bai's identity, he definitely looked extraordinary.
"Gu girl, this old man Bai is here with ill intentions, you'd better be careful." Old Fu said in a serious tone.
When Bai Lao heard this, he immediately became furious and glared at Fu Lao, saying, "Old Fu, you have no ill intentions. Stop ruining my reputation."
"Then what are you doing here?" Mr. Fu asked, his expression full of provocation.
"I admire Miss Gu, so can't I make friends with her? If you can, why can't I?" Old Bai said unconvinced.
"Puff" Hearing this, Gu Ning couldn't help but laugh out loud, thinking they were very cute, just like children. However, it was time to order food, so he interrupted them: "Okay, let's order first!"
The elderly people knew that Gu Ning was rich, so they did not act pretentiously and ordered their favorite dishes, but they were all light and healthy, not expensive.
"Girl, what do you want to do with Old Man Fu?" asked Old Man Yan.
"It's like this. I'm planning to open a jewelry company, and I need to register and get licenses. The current social trend is that having connections will make things go more smoothly and quickly, so I'd like to trouble Grandpa Fu to help me with all the connections." Gu Ning said without hiding anything, because he would inevitably need their help in the future.
"What? Open a jewelry company?" Upon hearing this, Mr. Yan and Mr. Bai were both very surprised, but also very appreciative.
At such a young age, he started his own business. This is really bold!
"But because I'm still a student and can't do it myself, I asked Uncle Zhou to manage it on my behalf, and I'll just be the boss behind the scenes." Gu Ning said.
Several of them knew Zhou Zhenghong, although they were not very familiar with him, but they still knew that he was a capable person.
As for the sudden change of the head of Zhou Fu Jewelry half a year ago, they also guessed that Zhou Fu Jewelry might have been harmed by Shao Ping.
They didn't know what the relationship between Gu Ning and Zhou Zhenghong was, and they didn't know how to ask. But since Gu Ning was confident in handing over the company to Zhou Zhenghong to manage, it showed that Gu Ning trusted Zhou Zhenghong.
Being able to trust someone so much proved that they had a close relationship, so they didn't ask any more questions.
Of course, if they knew that Gu Ning and Zhou Zhenghong were also good friends and had only met each other a few times, they would definitely be scared.
It's really rare that someone can be so trusting after just meeting them a few times.
"When my store opens, I would like to invite the three grandfathers to come and attend. I hope to use your help to increase its popularity." Gu Ning said.
"Come, we will definitely come." The three Yan brothers agreed readily.
After the meal, everyone was having a great time. People who didn't know them would think they were a family! Of course, except for Zhou Zhenghong who was not very comfortable.
After all, Bai Lao and his companions are people of status, so Zhou Zhenghong would feel uncomfortable in front of them.
Mr. Fu was just helping to greet the leaders of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. Zhou Zhenghong still had to go through the process of applying for the certificate himself. But with Mr. Fu's help, the process would be smooth and fast.
At that time, Zhou Zhenghong only needs to treat them to a meal and give them some gifts.
Although these are not necessary with Mr. Fu's invitation, Zhou Zhenghong still needs to build up this network on his own, so it is better to go with the clichés.
After the meal, everyone got up and left.
As soon as we arrived at the hotel, Old Yan said, "Girl, wait, let me introduce someone to you."
Gu Ning was wondering who to introduce when he heard Old Bai say, "Your kid is here too! Good old man."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ning looked in the direction of Old Bai and saw a few middle-aged men talking on the roadside ahead.
However, when he saw this, Gu Ning's eyes suddenly narrowed, revealing a cold look.
Because at this moment, a red dot was sweeping back and forth on the face of one of the middle-aged men, and finally stopped between the man's eyebrows. No one noticed this red dot, but Gu Ning saw it.
Without time to think, Gu Ning rushed over.
"Girl"
Bai Lao and his companions were shocked by Gu Ning's behavior and didn't know what was wrong with Gu Ning.
However, before they could think about it, the accident happened.
Similarly, the men who were talking on the roadside did not react in time. One of them was hit hard by Gu Ning and fell to one side.
The next second, with a "ding" sound, the bullet that was originally hitting the man missed him and hit the car behind him.
The sniper rifle was equipped with a silencer, so there was no other sound except the "ding" sound made by the bullet hitting the car body, so it did not attract more attention.
Although the murderer would usually retreat immediately after a failed shot, Gu Ning still looked in the direction from which the bullet came just in case.
Because of her jade pupils, her eyesight was very good and she immediately and accurately locked onto the murderer's location.
After his failure, the murderer was packing up and preparing to leave, but he was suddenly frightened by a cold gaze.
Although he couldn't see Gu Ning's appearance clearly, he could only judge that she was a girl. He didn't expect that the girl could actually detect the sniper, have such strong skills, and have such keen senses and sharp eyes.
So he didn't have time to think and left immediately.
