Chapter 72
Thinking of that, the driver was still trembling with terror .
“I’m sorry . It’s my fault actually . They were targeting me,” Gu Ning said, then she told him everything that had just happened .
“What?” The driver was shocked, but he didn’t blame Gu Ning since she was also a victim .
Because a lot had just happened, when Gu Ning finally arrived at the hotel, it was already 8 pm . Gu Ning was starving so she immediately called room service .
She had planned to buy clothes in the downtown this afternoon, but she didn’t have time now .
Although the shopping center was still open now, Gu Ning wasn’t only going to buy clothes for herself . She would buy some for Gu Man and the family of Gu Qing too . Thus an hour wasn’t enough for her to shop .
Gu Ning didn’t have another change of clothing . She had to wash her clothes tonight, and hopefully it would dry tomorrow .
She had her school uniform in her backpack, but she didn’t want to wear it . It would be too obvious in the crowd .
Her dinner hadn’t arrived yet . Gu Ning called Gu Man to chat with her for a short time .
Then she talked with Chu Peihan and others in their WeChat group for a while .
…
The evening wind was cool and mild . It danced with people walking by . Sometimes, it was a bit chilly .
In the downtown of City G, there was the biggest entertainment place, King’s Club .
In the noisy club, colorful lights shone . Men and women crazily shook their waists on the dance floor and the air was full of desire and luxury .
But in a private room which was set apart from the main hall, there was only light music and gentle talks .
In this huge private room, there were only five men without a single bar girl .
Apparently, something special was going on here .
“F*ck, we were just f*cking lucky this time . We even met the legendary Red Flame team captain, Red Wolf, who has killed seven of our people . All the troops were almost wiped out . Fortunately, we ran fast . Otherwise, we were f*cked,” a young man groaned and slammed the cigarette butt into the ground, seemingly venting the anger in his heart .
“I’ve heard that Red Wolf is very powerful . I didn’t care, but I’ve witnessed this time . He’s really very powerful . He could fight with more than a dozen people, and killed seven . He only got shot twice,” a bulky muscular man with a naked upper body said .
Although he hated his opponent to death, he admired him too .
“Luckily he got shot, and wasn’t able to track us . Or we would be found,” a relatively short man with a vicious look said .
“But we can’t be too careless . After all, the other team is the captain of the important national team . Maybe he will send someone to follow us! So we’ll be evacuated as soon as we successfully trade tomorrow . ”
“But why do they have to choose the Commercial Building in the city center! There are so many people there . Aren’t they afraid of being discovered?”
“F*ck! They’re simply afraid that we get the money, but don’t give them the goods . So the most secure place is where there are many people around . If we really don’t give them the goods, they will immediately cause a riot and bring the police . In that case, we can’t leave either . ”
“This isn’t the first time . Couldn’t they trust us?”
“The object is worth a hundred million yuan this time . It is reasonable to be careful . ”
In another private room, there was a laptop on the table . The screen showed the picture of the above men’s room .
A man sat before the laptop with earphones on . He had heard everything they had discussed .
This man was Leng Shaoting .
He had fine delicate features, but wore a cold expression . His eyes were as deep as the ocean with an air of power . He seemed like a king .
Behind Leng Shaoting, there stood two men . Both of them stared at the screen too, but didn’t hear what they had said .
“Boss, what’s their next movement?” seeing Leng Shaoting take off his earphones, a man asked .
“They’re going to trade at the business building in the downtown . Keep an eye on their location,” Leng Shaoting said calmly with a serious look on face .
Leng Shaoting didn’t kill them right now . He intended to use them as bait .
Their head wasn’t here, and the object was in the head’s hands . If he killed them now, their head would be alarmed .
They actually had no idea where their head was . If they had known, they would have come to him and killed him right away .
…
The next day, Gu Ning didn’t get up till 8am .
Gu Ning was actually awake earlier, but she had nothing to do . The shopping center was open at eight am, so she didn’t leave her warm bed till that time .
Besides, Gu Ning would fly back to City F at two pm this afternoon . She had a whole morning to shop in the shopping center . She didn’t need to rush at all .
She also needed to sign the contract with Zhou Zhenghong in the shopping center today .
The appointed time was 11am, which was a good time for lunch .
Gu Ning went downstairs when she got up . She checked out afterwards .
The shopping center wasn’t far away . It took around 20 minutes to walk there . Thus there was no need for Gu Ning to take a taxi . She walked there directly .
She had her breakfast halfway . When she finally arrived at the shopping center, it was almost 9am .
Today was a Sunday . There were already many people around in the shopping center at 9am .
Female clothes were on the second floor, so Gu Ning went straight to the second floor .
The shopping center was so big . It seemed it would never end . Gu Ning suddenly didn’t know where to start .
She walked randomly to a direction scanning through the clothes on both sides . If she liked the style of a brand, she would walk inside .
After a while, Gu Ning found an international designer brand . It was extremely expensive .
But no matter how expensive it was, it was nothing to Gu Ning now .
“Nice to meet you, welcome!” A saleswoman immediately came to her when Gu Ning stepped in . “Miss, may I help?”
“May I have a look at the clothes which are suitable for a woman around 40?” Gu Ning asked .
“Sure, miss, please follow me . ” The saleswoman guided Gu Ning to an area .
Gu Ning had a look . Nothing she liked .
“Could you please tell me the body type of your relative?” the saleswoman inquired .
“She has the same body as me . If I can wear it, it will fit her too,” Gu Ning answered .
Gu Ning was 167cm tall, and slim .
Then, the saleswoman chose a piece of clothing showing it to Gu Ning . “Miss, how about this one?”
“Well, it looks good . ” Gu Ning looked at it and like it at once . It would fit Gu Man . She was about to take it and have a closer look .
