Chapter 138 He is very busy, he can come to me
Gu Xiaoxiao’s incident made Shao Feifei, who had been calm for a long time, feel uneasy again. Fortunately, Gu Ning had no evidence, otherwise, she might have been fired.
Of course, what she didn't know was that Gu Ning didn't deal with her, he just thought she was not qualified.
As for Gu Xiaoxiao’s matter, the resentment was deep-rooted.
In the afternoon, An Guangyao called and said that the Qin family invited him to attend Mr. Qin’s 60th birthday party.
Gu Ning said that she would go there too, but she was invited by her classmates.
"By the way, Uncle An, what are you planning to give?" Gu Ning asked.
"Because I just received the invitation letter today, I haven't thought about it yet. Does the boss have any suggestions?" An Guangyao said.
Giving gifts is a difficult issue.
A wealthy family like the Qin family naturally has everything they need, so gifts cannot be too ordinary or vulgar.
However, rare things are hard to find, and they must be valued appropriately.
If it is too light, it seems that you don’t care; if it is too heavy, it seems like you are clinging or trying to please others.
So, it was really difficult for him.
Gu Ning thought for a moment and said, "I have something here, you can give it to her!"
"What is that?" An Guangyao asked curiously.
"Wu Guanzhong's landscape painting 'People by the Pond'," said Gu Ning.
"What? Wu Guanzhong's landscape painting "People by the Pond"? " An Guangyao was surprised and lost his composure when he heard this.
An Guangyao had no interest in antiques, calligraphy and paintings, nor did he know much about them, but he had heard of Wu Guanzhong's name.
I saw in the news that Wu Guanzhong's oil painting was sold at an auction for nearly five million! Although not every painting is worth a lot of money, since it is a painting by Wu Guanzhong, it is naturally not cheap.
"But boss, if we give such expensive gifts, people might think we are trying to curry favor with the Qin family." An Guangyao said, feeling that something was wrong.
"It's okay. When the time comes, just say that the boss behind the acquisition of Shenghua spent a thousand yuan to get it at a bargain. This way, it won't seem like you are deliberately giving expensive things, and you can also slightly exaggerate the importance of the person behind Shenghua Real Estate so that others won't look down on you." Gu Ning said.
"Picking up a bargain?" An Guangyao asked tentatively, "Boss, this couldn't really be a bargain for you, could it?"
For some reason, An Guangyao felt that the painting was something Gu Ning had found on the sly, and he began to feel uneasy.
"Yes! I found a bargain at the antique market in City G over the weekend." Gu Ning did not hide anything and told the truth.
Hearing this, An Guangyao was stunned and then took a deep breath.
Oh my god! The boss is so lucky!
No, how does the boss know that this painting is authentic? An Guangyao is becoming more and more curious about Gu Ning, and he thinks she is becoming more and more mysterious.
Then, Gu Ning said: "I will give it to you tomorrow at noon."
"Okay." Upon hearing this, An Guangyao immediately reacted and responded, then ended the call.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with asking for gifts from Gu Ning, because he represented [Shenghua Real Estate], and Gu Ning was the real boss of [Shenghua Real Estate], so there was no difference in taking gifts from Gu Ning.
When Gu Ning was returning home in the afternoon, he unexpectedly ran into Xu Jingchen and Leng Shaoting when he passed by Area C. They were just walking out of the gate of Area C.
When seeing Leng Shaoting, Gu Ning thought of his guilty look, and a hint of amusement appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this, Leng Shaoting felt a little uncomfortable and looked away.
"Hi, girl, it's time to go home from school!" Xu Jingchen greeted Gu Ning warmly as soon as he saw her.
"Yes! Have you eaten?" Gu Ning asked.
"I'm just about to go out to eat! By the way, I've never treated you to a meal since I met you. We're leaving tomorrow, and I don't know when we'll see each other again. How about I treat you to a meal today? Just think of it as making friends!" Xu Jingchen said, sincerely wanting to treat Gu Ning to a meal.
Leng Shaoting felt unhappy when he saw Xu Jingchen's enthusiasm towards Gu Ning, but he had no intention of stopping him.
Perhaps, he himself wanted to have dinner with Gu Ning! He just didn't even realize it.
"Okay!" Gu Ning agreed readily and glanced at Leng Shaoting at the same time.
Obviously, Gu Ning agreed because of Leng Shaoting.
Of course, Xu Jingchen didn't notice this action.
Xu Jingchen was delighted when he heard this. He moved closer to Gu Ning and asked, "So, girl, what do you want to eat?"
"Seafood," Gu Ning said directly without being polite.
Hearing this, Xu Jingchen and Leng Shaoting frowned at the same time.
Seeing this, Gu Ning asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Well, Shao Ting is allergic to seafood." Xu Jingchen said somewhat embarrassedly.
Gu Ning was a little surprised. Leng Shaoting was allergic to seafood? No wonder he didn't eat anything yesterday! "It's okay, I'll just eat something else." Leng Shaoting said nonchalantly, obviously accommodating Gu Ning.
"I don't want to eat seafood now," Gu Ning regretted. She was not so ignorant! After thinking for a while, she said, "There is a private restaurant on Youyi Road. It looks good. Why don't we go there?"
Leng Shaoting glanced at Gu Ning, an indescribable look flashed in his eyes. Gu Ning smiled with her lips curved, which made Leng Shaoting's heart skip a beat. He didn't dare to look her in the eye.
Seeing this, Gu Ning almost laughed out loud. Leng Shaoting was too shy, so funny!
Then, Gu Ning called Gu Man and said that he was having dinner with friends outside and would not be going back for dinner. Gu Man didn't say anything.
Anyway, they all ate at Gu Qing's house instead of Gu Man's, so it didn't seem lonely even with so many people.
On the way, Xu Jingchen always liked to get close to Gu Ning and talk, which made Leng Shaoting feel extremely unhappy and he wanted to separate them.
But although I thought about it, the awareness was not strong enough, so I didn't take any action.
"Girl, the college entrance examination is coming soon. Where do you plan to take it?" Xu Jingchen asked.
"Capital University." Gu Ning said.
"Capital University? It seems that the girl has good grades! Well, my home is in the capital. When you go to the capital, you can come to me if you need any help. Although I am not omnipotent, I am still quite capable, haha! How about exchanging numbers?" Xu Jingchen said, feeling a little nervous, fearing that Gu Ning would refuse, and then he would lose face.
Leng Shaoting felt even more uncomfortable when he heard this, and subconsciously said: "He is very busy, if you have anything, you can come to me."
This means to prevent Xu Jingchen and Gu Ning from contacting each other.
"Brother, you are busier than us!" Xu Jingchen retorted.
Yes! Compared to them, Leng Shaoting simply immersed himself in work all year round, and was stationed in the army regardless of whether there was a mission or not.
But just as he finished speaking, Xu Jingchen thought of a more important question: "Hey! No, when did you become so enthusiastic?"
