Chapter 1966: Don’t you consider the overall situation?
Dongfang Qi originally didn't know that Zhang Yong was an undercover agent of the Jing family. It was Huang Ziwei who discovered it and told him.
After getting the answer, Gu Ning directly gave the spiritual energy crystal to Dongfang Qi.
As for what Dongfang Qi said, Gu Ning did not doubt it, because if he wanted to deal with them, he still needed to investigate, and he would not just do whatever Dongfang Qi said.
Of course, if Dongfang Qi was lying to her, she would not let him go.
Dongfang Qi asked Gu Ning not to expose himself, and Gu Ning agreed.
After the conversation ended and the coffee was almost finished, Gu Ning said goodbye.
I made an appointment to have dinner with Zi Beiying in the afternoon, and also invited Xu Qinying to join us.
Although Zi Beiying came to the United Kingdom of Dipu Dongxia with Xu Jingchen, she was still her friend after all. Now that Xu Jingchen had gone on a mission, she naturally had to entertain Zi Beiying.
When Madam Xu found out that Xu Qinying was going to have dinner with Zi Beiying, she insisted on going with them because she was worried that her son wouldn't be able to handle the girl, so she wanted to help.
But in the end she didn't go because Mr. Xu stopped her, saying that if she went, she would scare the girl.
Mrs. Xu thought about it and agreed reluctantly.
However, when Xu Qinying left, Madam Xu repeatedly reminded Xu Qinying to say more good things to Xu Jingchen, which made everyone laugh and cry.
Although Gu Ning was delayed for some time by talking with Dongfang Qi, it was not much, so when they arrived at the dining place, it was just the right time. Zi Beiying and Xu Qinying had only arrived a few minutes earlier.
Originally, Zi Beiying also wanted Xia Maqi to come, but Xia Maqi was busy with work and couldn't come, so it was just these few of them.
When Xu Qinying met Zi Beiying, she did not mention Xu Jingchen. She also had no intention of telling her about what her aunt had told her, because if she did, not only would Zi Beiying feel embarrassed, she would also feel ashamed.
After Gu Ning arrived, they ordered food and started eating.
After the meal, they dispersed.
Gu Ning did not go back to [Century Sky City] with Zi Beiying, but went to [Shanhe Mingyuan], because she wanted to ask Jing Yunyao which family owned [Chengfeng Group] and [Yaping Group].
Although Jing Yunyao has not returned to the world of cultivation for more than 20 years, these industries have existed for decades, so Jing Yunyao naturally knows about them.
When Jing Yunyao heard about Chengfeng Group, her face darkened and she said, "Chengfeng Group belongs to the Jing family, and Yaping Group belongs to the Dongfang family."
"What? [Yaping Group] belongs to the Dongfang family?"
Gu Ning's focus was not on the Chengfeng Group but on the Yaping Group. She originally thought that there would be no possibility of the Dongfang family being involved in these two groups, but unexpectedly, the two undercover agents sent were from the Dongfang family.
But now, she has a rough guess.
[Yaping Group] belongs to the Dongfang family, but it is no longer on the same boat with Dongfang Qi.
It is normal to form cliques in a large family.
As for the fact that the people behind Chengfeng Group were the Jing family, Gu Ning was not surprised at all, because she had guessed that it was either the Jing family or the Yin family.
As for the Baili family, Baili Zongyang and his sister have already obtained the spiritual energy crystal, so there is no need to send anyone undercover. If there are people from the Baili family, they are definitely not on the same side as Baili Zongyang.
She still has this basic trust.
"What happened?" Jing Yunyao asked with concern.
Gu Ning said, "It's like this. Don't the medicines in my Kanglaining Pharmaceuticals contain spiritual energy? Many people have been eyeing them. Today, Dongfang Qi from the Dongfang family found me and made a deal with me. He wanted the spiritual energy to extract the medicine that makes my medicine more effective. Then he told me that several undercover agents had entered the Kanglaining Pharmaceuticals factory and company. I originally thought that Dongfang Qi was from the Dongfang family, and none of the undercover agents he told me about were from the Dongfang family! Or maybe he just wanted to use me to get rid of people from other families so that the Dongfang family could have the whole thing. But I didn't expect that the Dongfang family actually sent two people. Now it seems that it should be due to internal family reasons, so Dongfang Qi also revealed the Dongfang family's undercover agents."
"It's obvious that Dongfang Qi is from the second branch of the Dongfang family, and the person who sent the undercover must be from the first branch of the Dongfang family. Although the eldest and second young masters of the Dongfang family are brothers, they have the same father but different mothers, and the two have always been fighting openly and secretly." Jing Yunyao said.
"But the second branch of the Dongfang family is too incapable of considering the overall situation." Although Dongfang Qi helped her by uncovering the undercover without any effort, from another perspective, she felt that the second branch of the Dongfang family was too incompetent.
"The Dongfang family's first branch has succeeded, which is of course good for the overall situation. However, if the Dongfang family's first branch has succeeded, then they are getting closer and closer to the position of family head. How can the Dongfang family's second branch tolerate this! In the world of cultivation, the strong are respected, and the elderly are only secondary. So they compete for this position based on strength, not seniority." Jing Yunyao said.
Hearing this, Gu Ning understood.
"Now the Jing family also knows that there is spiritual energy in the medicine. After the undercover operation failed, I'm sure the Jing family will be dispatched. By then, it will be only a matter of time before Shao Ting is discovered." Jing Yunyao said, feeling a little gloomy. Although she knew it was a matter of time, she still hoped it would be later if possible, at least after Leng Shao Ting became stronger.
"If the enemy comes, we will fight him; if the water comes, we will block it with earth. Even if they find out, they may not be able to hurt Shao Ting. Even if Shao Ting can't win, at least he can escape! As long as Grandpa Shangguan shows up, what can they do to Shao Ting?" Gu Ning comforted, although she was also worried.
Even though she knew Leng Shaoting would be fine, if they really met, getting hurt was inevitable. Even if he got hurt, she didn't want to see it.
There are some things that won't happen just because she doesn't want them to, so they have to think positively.
"Yeah!" Jing Yunyao didn't want Gu Ning to worry about her, so she immediately calmed herself down and stopped herself from thinking too much.
Tonight, Gu Ning slept in [Shanhe Mingyuan] and would deal with the undercover matters tomorrow. As for cultivation, he could only postpone it until things were dealt with.
But it won't take much time to deal with this matter.
While sleeping in [Shanhe Mingyuan], Gu Ning can also try to practice Qi. After all, there are no cultivators around, so he doesn't have to worry about being discovered.
Here, after Dongfang Qi got the spiritual crystal, he immediately returned to the world of cultivation and told the second branch of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Xuri, about this matter.
