Chapter 1985: Needs More Than Just Good Luck
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Zuo Wenjun was very interested in Gu Ning, so she temporarily forgot why she called Leng Shaoxi out tonight.
It was not only Zuo Wenjun; the others were also very interested in Gu Ning.
After finding out that Gu Ning actually had many other businesses, they were shocked and admired her more than ever.
Once Gu Ning went into the ladies’ room, she used her Jade Eyes again to see what the people were doing in the private room.
She was right. There wasn’t only a bug, there was also a pinhole camera in the upper left corner.
Yuan Wenrui and the other people were talking about their affairs without any concern. They had no idea that they were being monitored.
They dared to do that because they trusted this private clubhouse too much. Private clubs were always extremely safe places for the exchange of important information. Many high-ranking officials liked to come here to talk about things, and most of the time it was classified matters. They had never been monitored or exposed before. Therefore, they wouldn’t think that they were monitored this time.
Gu Ning was curious about the person who was spying on them.
Since someone was spying on them, the person must be in a nearby private room.
Out of curiosity, Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to see the inside of other private rooms without caring about whether it was moral.
After checking several of the nearest rooms, she found nothing unusual till she saw the private room that Rong Jue was in.
Rong Jue was with 2 men, and the 2 men weren’t unfamiliar to Gu Ning. One was Huojian, and the other was the instructor of the next class.
The 3 of them were sitting in front of the sofa. On the table, there was a laptop, and Rong Jue was sitting in the middle wearing earphones.
When Gu Ning saw the computer screen on their desk, she realized what they were doing. It was Rong Jue who was monitoring Yuan Wenrui and the others, because the video on the computer was the video of Yuan Wenrui and the others in the private room.
Although Yuan Wenrui and the others were being targeted. It was a good thing. However, because of the relationship between the Rong family and the Leng family, Gu Ning was afraid that the Rong family might use Shen Yanfeng’s matter this time to attack the Leng family.
Therefore, Gu Ning immediately took out her phone. Because it wasn’t convenient for her to call Leng Shaoting, she sent him a message.
At this time, Leng Shaoting and the others had just returned to the siheyuan. Once he heard the sound of a new message, he took out his phone to read it.
The moment he saw the content of Gu Ning’s message, he was mad. It was really time to punish the Shen family.
As long as the Leng family took action to punish the Shen family, everyone would know that the Leng family already gave up on them. Therefore, It would be useless even if the Rong family planned to defame the Leng family by using the Shen family.
After that, Leng Shaoting called Master Leng and shared the news with him.
Although Leng Shaoting was already completely in charge of the matter of dealing with the Shen family, he needed to report the latest news to Master Leng.
Knowing that, Master Leng agreed with him silently. He was disappointed by the Shen family long ago, so he was unwilling to protect it now.
…
After sending the message to Leng Shaoting, Gu Ning went back to her friends. She was only absent for 3 minutes from beginning to end.
“Miss Gu, I can’t believe how unbelievable you are! You have so many companies,” said Zuo Wenjun with excitement and admiration once Gu Ning was back. She already took Gu Ning as her idol.
“Yeah, you know what, the goddess in my eyes is Tang Xiaoxiao,” said Lin Beishan with admiration as well.
Although she disliked Gu Ning for a while just now because of the misunderstanding, she began to admire Gu Ning after learning the truth and knowing how successful Gu Ning was right now. There were many successful people, but none of them were as successful as Gu Ning.
“Miss Gu, you’re so amazing! You already impressed me because of the bronze chimes. However, unexpectedly, you have many other companies at such a young age! You’ve surpassed all your predecessors,” said Zuo Zhaochen. He didn’t know much about Gu Ning before, but he was already aware that she was young and successful. After finding out that she had even more achievements, he began to admire her.
He wasn’t jealous, so he wouldn’t unkindly wonder whether Gu Ning relied on dirty tricks to become successful. Gu Ning was young, but it didn’t mean she lacked abilities. Especially after knowing that she was Leng Shaoting’s fiancée, he tended to believe that Gu Ning was able to achieve success on her own. After all, Leng Shaoting wouldn’t choose an ordinary girl given his family background and abilities.
He wasn’t saying that Leng Shaoting was a snob. However, even if Gu Ning didn’t have an extraordinary family background, she at least had to be very outstanding by herself for Leng Shaoting to be attracted to her.
“Yeah, Miss Gu, you’re really unbelievable.” Chen Junnan chimed in. Even though he wasn’t bad compared with his peers, he was nothing in front of Gu Ning.
He never felt arrogant because of his achievements, because he hadn’t achieved his goal yet.
Everyone kept on complimenting Gu Ning, but Gu Ning was already used to it, so she didn’t feel embarrassed at all.
Since they complimented her, Gu Ning felt she should be modest. “I’m flattered. I’m just very lucky.”
“Miss Gu, you’re being too modest. One needs the ability to be so lucky all the time,” said Zuo Zhaochen.
“Yeah, having good luck is also one’s ability, otherwise one would never achieve anything,” said Chen Junnan.
“…”
They talked about that topic for a long time, then changed to other topics.
“Miss Gu, may I know, did you chase Lord Leng, or did he chase you?” asked Zuo Wenjun. She asked that question because she couldn’t imagine a cold man like Leng Shaoting chasing a girl.
“He chased me,” Gu Ning said.
Hearing that, Zuo Wenjun and the others were all surprised, because it was totally beyond their imagination.
Given Leng Shaoting’s appearance and family background, he had countless admirers in the capital, but his cold face and air made many girls stay away from him.
Normally, they gave up after being treated coldly once or twice, because Leng Shaoting’s cold face was too scary to accept. Not many people could stand it.
While Gu Ning chatted with them, she didn’t forget to pay attention to the private room next door. Gu Ning got the news that they had made an appointment to trade in a certain town the night after tomorrow, but didn’t know the specific time and place. In addition, the time and place were only initially set by them, and it might be changed at any time.
They didn’t stay there for too long and left at 10 pm. When they were gone, Rong Jue and his people walked away as well.
Since they left, Gu Ning could stop spying on them.. She could only hope Leng Shaoting took action earlier than Rong Jue, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with it later.
