Chapter 1436 Not a Mortal
At around ten o'clock in the evening, Leng Shaoting called Gu Ning and told her about the encounter with the evil cultivator last night, including his own injuries, and how he was able to absorb the spiritual energy of the Night Pearl to heal his injuries, as well as an inexplicable power in his body that could shock the evil cultivator away.
As for what this power is, he doesn't know, nor can he control it. It will only burst out when the evil cultivator hits him. Moreover, this is the second time. The last time in Phoenix Mountain, the evil cultivator fell off the cliff because of the power in her body. He just didn't tell her because he was afraid that she would worry.
Although he knew that telling Gu Ning about these things would make her worry about him, the matter concerned evil cultivators and was of no small importance and must be resolved. He knew far less about evil cultivators than Gu Ning did, and it would be impossible for him to resolve it alone, so he could only tell Gu Ning.
Knowing that Leng Shaoting encountered an evil cultivator and was injured, Gu Ning was naturally very worried.
However, after learning that Leng Shaoting was able to absorb the spiritual energy of the Night Pearl on his own, and could heal his injuries, and even had the power to blow away evil cultivators, he was also extremely surprised. However, he didn't know what was going on?
"I don't know what's going on in this situation, but it shouldn't have any effect on your body, and you have the Night Pearl in your hand, so you don't have to worry for now. We'll explore it when I return to the capital. You should keep the Night Pearl in good care, and it's best not to return it to the museum." Gu Ning reminded with a heavy heart. With the Night Pearl in hand and Leng Shaoting able to absorb the contents of the Night Pearl independently, Gu Ning was not so worried.
But he was still worried because the matter was not resolved.
"Okay," Leng Shaoting responded.
As long as he tells them about the Night Pearl, the museum will give him some favors.
Of course, Leng Shaoting didn't want to get something for nothing, so he gave the museum the corresponding money when he bought it.
Then the two of them stopped talking about this topic and talked about other things, which were nothing more than expressing their feelings to each other. It was almost an hour before they hung up the phone.
After ending the call, Gu Ning kept thinking about what happened between Leng Shaoting and him.
Leng Shaoting can absorb the spiritual energy of the Night Pearl on his own! What is going on? Gu Ning didn't know. However, considering that Leng Shaoting's body could emit a force that could blow away the evil cultivator, this showed one thing: Leng Shaoting was probably not an ordinary person, and the force he emitted was probably related to spiritual energy.
So Gu Ning's first suspicion was whether Leng Shaoting had any connection with cultivators, because ordinary people could not absorb spiritual energy. However, thinking that she had not sensed anything related to cultivators from him before, Gu Ning was just guessing and was not sure.
Gu Ning also wondered if it was because Leng Shaoting absorbed too much of his spiritual energy that other abnormal changes occurred in his body?
Thinking of this possibility, Gu Ning really felt that it was possible.
However, we will have to verify the truth to find out.
That night, Gu Ning couldn't sleep.
However, this night, because Leng Shaoting had the Night Pearl in his body, he no longer felt the swelling and discomfort in his dantian. Because his body was slowly absorbing the spiritual energy of the Night Pearl, the spiritual energy was circulating in his meridians.
If a cultivator saw this scene, he would be stunned, because the spiritual energy circulating in Leng Shaoting's meridians is exactly the same as when they practice qigong.
In other words, Leng Shaoting didn't need to practice, his spiritual energy could circulate automatically. This was an unprecedented situation! It was even more heaven-defying!
If Gu Ning knew about Leng Shaoting's current situation, he would not feel uneasy, because Leng Shaoting has already entered the realm of cultivation...
Although Gu Ning couldn't sleep until most of the night, he felt completely refreshed when he woke up the next day. Because of his spiritual energy, he didn't feel tired at all even though he didn't sleep all night.
Around ten o'clock in the morning, Gu Ning received a call from Gao Weichao, who told her about Peng Xinghao and said that Peng Xinghao's designs were indeed very good and that several of his designs had already been decided to be produced.
Yes, the day after Gu Ning returned to Hai City last time, Peng Xinghao and his sister also came and went to the company for an interview. Unsurprisingly, Peng Xinghao was accepted.
Although Peng Xiaoman had no professional skills, she had worked in sales. Although not clothing sales, she had good eloquence as a salesperson, so Gao Weichao arranged for Peng Xiaoman to work in the sales department and start from the grassroots level.
As long as Peng Xiaoman does a good job, she will naturally have the opportunity to be promoted.
Although it is a grassroots position, the salary is still considerable in Gu Ning's company.
After the work was arranged, Peng Xiaoman and her brother called Gu Ning to thank him.
Although they have some money now, it is unrealistic to buy a house in a place like Hai City, so they have not considered buying a house here.
Although there are employee dormitories, Peng Xinghao, who is engaged in design, needs a quiet living environment, because not all designs can be completed in the company. Sometimes he may get inspiration when he is alone at home quietly late at night.
However, they have just joined the company and have not made any contribution to the company. It is impossible for the company to provide them with separate living quarters for free because this would be unfair to other employees.
However, the company also provides housing and transportation subsidies of 1,000 yuan, so Peng Xinghao and Peng Xiaoman get a total of 2,000 yuan. With another 1,000 yuan, they can live in a two-bedroom apartment in a community near the company.
After all, it is a sea city, and the rent is still quite expensive, but it is still affordable for them at the moment.
Peng Xinghao's matter was secondary. This time, Gao Weichao mainly talked to Gu Ning about the fact that their clothing brand, "Gufan", was about to be launched for trial operation. The decoration work of the store was nearing completion. It would be open for business in about half a month, and promotion would begin in a few days.
Yes, Gu Ning’s clothing brand is called “Gu Fan”, which is daily wear. However, the company’s name is directly taken from the two words “Gu Fan”.
Gufan will produce fashionable men's and women's clothing, as well as shoes, ties, bags and more.
The "Zise" dress is under the name of "Gufan".
This time, the store of "Gu Fan" is very large, almost 400 square meters, and the store has all the "Gu Fan" products, including women's clothing, men's clothing, bags, shoes and ties.
In addition to daily wear, there is also a "Zise" dress area. The purpose of putting "Zise" dresses in the area is to let some customers who don't know the relationship between "Zise" and "Gufan" know about it, because no matter how effective the publicity is, not everyone may know about it.
