Chapter 87: 87
Before Jiang Xu got home, everyone was resting .
On the other side, Lin Lijuan had been aggravated by Gu Ning . She stopped shopping and went back home earlier .
Once she got home, Lin Lijuan kept swearing at Gu Ning and her mother .
“What happened?” Her mother-in-law asked . Although she heard Lin Lijuan swearing at Gu Ning and her mother, she didn’t know what had happened .
Lin Lijuan then told the old lady everything .
“What? Gu Ning the bastard threatened you today? Isn’t today Monday? Why wasn’t she at school?” The old lady was also surprised .
Hearing that, Lin Lijuan finally realized today was Monday, but Gu Ning wasn’t in her school . “Who knows . She probably dropped out!”
Saying that, Lin Lijuan even believed it was true, and slightly felt happy .
“If she really dropped out, she deserved it . She wouldn’t apologize to Xiaoxiao, and even yelled at me . ” The old lady snorted with anger . She had no sympathy for her granddaughter at all .
“Oh, did Gu Qing behave against my warning and let Gu Man and Gu Qing stay with her?” the old lady asked .
“I don’t know . She said no . ” Although Gu Qing had denied it, Lin Lijuan didn’t believe her . The rent was so high outside . How could Gu Man and Gu Qing afford it?
“No, I must give them a call . ” The old lady seemed like she enjoyed humiliating Gu Man and Gu Ning so much . She immediately took out her phone and called Gu Man .
Unfortunately, no one answered .
Gu Man did it on purpose of course .
The old lady called her after they had had a fierce argument with Lin Lijuan . She must be calling to criticize them . Gu Man didn’t want to answer the call at all .
…
Jiang Xu had walked around in the construction materials market . There was a good location to open a shop, but it was too small .
Jiang Xu did have a good choice, but the store was located outside of the construction materials market . It was noticeable and huge, around 300 square meters, and the annual rent was five hundred thousand yuan .
If his business was profitable, he could get the utilities fee back within several months, but if his business wasn’t profitable, it would hard to settle a deal within a year .
After Gu Ning heard the news, she thought that they had to choose the huge store, and run a big business . Therefore, she supported Jiang Xu .
Although Jiang Xu thought it was a little risky, he was happy .
Gu Ning understood Jiang Xu was slightly worried . She comforted him to do his best, he didn’t need to worry about the money .
Before Gu Ning went to sleep, she talked with her friends in their “Family of Fighters” WeChat group . She told them to keep training tomorrow .
Anyone who didn’t show up before 6:20 am wouldn’t get his or her gift .
Knowing that, each of them all promised they would show up on time tomorrow .
Except for Yu Mixi, the rest all didn’t lack money, or gifts . However, they lacked meaningful gifts . It had nothing to do with the price .
As long as the gift was from Gu Ning, they would be happy even if it was only worth several yuan .
The next morning, Gu Ning got up at 5:30 am and left her home at 5:35 am .
Fenghua Luxury Mansion was seven to eight kilometers away from her school . It took her around 25 minutes to get there by running .
When she arrived at her school, it was 6 am . She went to buy breakfast, and coincidentally met Yu Mixi on her way .
That girl was pretty early today!
“Ningning, you’re finally back!” Seeing Gu Ning, Yu Mixi was super excited . She ran to Gu Ning and held her arm tightly .
They seemed very close, but it was quite normal between close friends .
Although Gu Ning didn’t like to have physical touch with others, she could accept it if the other person was her friend .
“What do you want for breakfast? It’s on me!” Yu Mixi asked .
Yu Mixi was Gu Ning’s close friend so she didn’t reject her kindness . “A steamed bun and soy milk please!”
They didn’t have much time left, so it was convenient to have a steamed bun and soy milk .
Both Gu Ning and Yu Mixi bought a steamed bun and soy milk . They went into their school together .
“Ningning, can you tell me what my gift is?” Yu Mixi was curious .
“Sorry, I can’t . I’ll show you all when everyone arrives,” Gu Ning answered .
“Fine . ” Yu Mixi was a little disappointed .
There were a few students running in the morning .
They met Mu Ke halfway .
They were all in school uniforms . Thus Mu Ke actually didn’t recognize them from their back at first, but he soon recognized their voices .
“Hey boss, Mixi . ”
He ran to them immediately .
“Boss, where is my gift?” Mu Ke asked for his gift at once too .
“Ningning said she would only show us when everyone arrives,” Yu Mixi said before Gu Ning could .
Mu Ke then had the same feeling of disappointment as Yu Mixi .
When they arrived at the football field, it was 6:10 am . Chu Peihan came minutes later . She asked for her gift too, but got the same answer as well .
A few minutes later, Hao Ran and his friends arrived . They ran here, and were all out of breath .
“Boss, where is my gift?” Hao Ran asked with excitement .
“Run 10 circles first . The last one, except for Mixi, will only get his or her gift after the morning class,” Gu Ning said, then she started to run .
Ten circles amounted to four thousand meters .
No!
Hearing that, the boys all shouted in sadness . It was such a torture to them! The last one could only get his or her gift after the morning class . No one wanted to be the last one .
No one dared to argue with Gu Ning, unless they wanted to get punched, so they had to follow her at the end .
It seemed impossible for Hao Ran and his bros to beat Chu Peihan and Mu Ke, so they decided to compete with each other .
They now became competitors for Gu Ning’s gifts .
Indeed, from the beginning, Hao Ran, Qin Zixun and Zhang Tianping were left behind .
However, they just hadn’t caught their breath yet, it didn’t mean they were weak . They actually weren’t far behind Gu Ning .
Gu Ning ran three times longer than the others, but with her power, she was now much stronger than before .
She felt a little tired, but not much .
She had run seven to eight kilometers from Fenghua Luxury Mansion to her school, but she was simply slightly out of breath . She didn’t feel utterly exhausted anymore .
Other than Gu Ning, Chu Peihan was the strongest among them .
Although Gu Ning didn’t know Chu Peihan’s background very well, she believed she must has received long-term professional training .
