Chapter 357 Return to City F
Alan left. Bai Xueyan stared at his receding figure and was slightly distracted. When she could no longer see Alan, she came back to her senses and asked Gu Ning, "How is he? Isn't he handsome? And he is also very gentlemanly and polite."
"Yeah! He is very handsome, very gentlemanly and very polite." Gu Ning did not deny it, but she still felt that Leng Shaoting was more handsome.
Thinking of Leng Shaoting, Gu Ning couldn't help but feel worried. She wondered what he was doing now!
"Especially the way he smiles, it's simply dazzling!" Bai Xueyan showed an obsessed look on her face, and Gu Ning laughed in silence.
When they were almost done sitting, Bai Xueyan and Gu Ning left. Before they left, Allen had not come out, which made Bai Xueyan feel a little disappointed. Seeing this, Gu Ning was not able to comfort her.
After leaving the cafe, the two separated.
However, before leaving, Bai Xueyan asked Gu Ning to go to the Bai family for dinner, but Gu Ning refused on the grounds that he had something to do.
After they separated, Gu Ning called Qiao Ya and asked about the situation in Teng City. Qiao Ya replied that everything was fine.
Then, Gu Ning asked them to book flights for tomorrow and come to City F.
After that, Gu Ning had nothing to do, and seeing that it was still early, less than four o'clock, Gu Ning went to the processing plant.
At six o'clock, everyone got off work and Gu Ning went home.
Gu Ning found a restaurant to eat by himself. He started playing with his phone while eating. Then he saw Qin Zixun in the WeChat group calling everyone to come out for a gathering.
Mu Ke: Did your parents let you come out?
Qin Zixun: They couldn't stop me even if they didn't let me, because they were not at home, they had gone to G City to attend a funeral.
Hao Ran: Who died?
Qin Zixun: A daughter of my uncle. She was also there at my uncle’s last birthday party. I heard that she was hit on the head with a wine bottle in an entertainment club.
Qin Zixun was not very clear about this.
Seeing this, Gu Ning immediately knew that the person Qin Zixun was talking about was Li Zhenzhen.
Li Zhenzhen is dead? This surprised Gu Ning.
But after thinking about it, Gu Ning guessed the reason. It was probably because of drugs that Li Zhenzhen died, not because of the wound on her head! Although Gu Ning didn't hate Li Zhenzhen enough to want her to die, she died, and Gu Ning didn't have any sympathy, because she deserved it all.
After finishing his meal, Gu Ning returned to the blue sea and blue sky.
In the evening, Gu Ning received a text message from K, saying that the things she wanted to investigate had been sent to her email.
Gu Ning opened his email and started reading.
Gu Ning asked K to investigate the pharmaceutical companies in Beijing that were unable to continue operating and wanted to sell. K investigated three companies. K investigated the history and background of these three companies, as well as their work quality and reputation, and listed them in order.
Gu Ning also took a fancy to the pharmaceutical company ranked first by K.
However, Gu Ning doesn't have time to go to the capital now, and can only wait until after the New Year. She doesn't think anyone will take over so soon.
The next morning, Gu Ning returned to City F.
The flight leaves at 9:30 and arrives at F City Airport at 10:40.
As soon as he got off the plane, Gu Ning called Gu Man and asked her where she was.
Gu Man said she was at the beauty salon, so Gu Ning went straight to the salon.
Gu Man was so happy when she knew Gu Ning was back. Even before Gu Ning arrived, Gu Man kept running out to see him, extremely impatient.
"I say, Fourth Brother, I know you are happy that Ningning is back, but you don't have to run out to see her all the time! Ningning will be away for half a month this time, and when she goes to college, it will take half a semester!" Gu Qing said helplessly.
In fact, she missed and worried about Gu Ning during the half month she was away. No matter how capable Gu Ning was, she would always be a child in her parents' hearts, and they would always be worried about her.
So when she heard that Gu Ning was back, Gu Qing's worries and concerns over the past few days finally came to an end.
"But you're not going to college yet! Your mood will naturally be different." Gu Man said, and Gu Qing was speechless.
It took more than 20 minutes to get from the airport to the city. All in all, it took Gu Ning 40 minutes to get to the beauty salon. As soon as Gu Ning entered the door, Gu Man and Gu Qing immediately greeted her: "Ningning, you're back."
Gu Qing immediately took the suitcase from Gu Ning, and Gu Man took Gu Ning's hand and walked into the office.
Arriving at the office, Gu Ning opened the suitcase and said, "These clothes are New Year gifts for you."
"You kid, we have enough clothes, why buy more clothes!" Gu Man immediately scolded, but she was happy in her heart. Who wouldn't be happy to receive a gift? Gu Ning smiled and said nothing. She couldn't say that these were bought by her future son-in-law! If they knew that she was in love, they would have to be tried in court.
Gu Ning took out three jewelry boxes and handed them to Gu Man: "These are three jade pendants for the event."
Gu Qing looked at the three jewelry boxes and her expression immediately became heavy. She seemed to be hesitant to speak. She still felt that these three prizes were too valuable.
Gu Ning naturally saw through it, and comforted her: "Second Aunt, I know you think these three prizes are too valuable, but without effort, there is no reward!"
Gu Qing heard this and thought about the promotional text messages that had been sent out yesterday. Many members called to inquire and expressed their desire to come. As soon as the promotional advertisements were posted, many people came to inquire. Gu Qing immediately felt relieved.
"Okay, it's already half past eleven, let's go out for dinner! What does Ningning want to eat?" Gu Man said, looking at the time.
There is a kitchen in the beauty salon, and the employees would take turns to have someone cook for them, but Gu Man wanted the three of them to get together, so she went out to eat by herself.
"In the winter, eating hotpot is the most enjoyable thing." Gu Ning said.
"Okay, then let's go eat hotpot." Gu Man responded.
Then the three of them went out.
"Aunt, how is uncle's business now?" Gu Ning asked Gu Qing.
"I don't know the details, but it's pretty good! There is business every day." Gu Qing said with a smile.
Thinking of how they went from having nothing to having enough food and clothing, Gu Qing couldn't help but sigh in her heart, life is so unpredictable! All of this was given by Gu Ning.
"By the way, I received a call from my third brother this morning, saying that they will be back the day after tomorrow and want to have a family gathering. I haven't agreed yet, so I wanted to ask for your opinions first." Gu Qing said, looking at Gu Ning. Although she said "asking for your" opinions, she was actually asking for Gu Ning's opinion.
Gu Ning was silent. Gu Ning knew that Gu Man and Gu Qing wanted to go, otherwise they would not have asked her. They really didn't have any big grudges with Gu Qingyang's family. Since they were invited, it would be bad not to go.
"Then go! We don't have much grudge against my third uncle's family, so there's no need to be too distant. But let me make it clear in advance, if the old woman and Gu Qingxing's family make trouble again, I will not be polite. This time, it's definitely not us who will leave, but them." Gu Ning said seriously.
"Yeah," Gu Qing responded.
Now they won't suffer such humiliation like before. Anyway, their family has already torn their relations with Gu Qingxiang's family, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
