Chapter 958
“Gu Man, even though you’ll live in City B from now on, do remember to visit us in City F when you’re free,” Mrs . Hao said .
“I will!” Gu Man said .
“Since you are moving to City B now, you should be the host if we come here!” Mrs . Lu said .
“Ha-ha, of course! Come here to have fun whenever you want, and I’ll pay the bill,” Gu Man said . In fact, neither of them lacked money, and they were good friends too so they were willing to spend money on each other .
The women began to chat with each other, and Jiang Xu along with Gu Qinyang were left aside, so they started to talk about their work .
From their conversation, Jiang Xu got to know that the public institution that Gu Qinyang worked for was in trouble .
Gu Qinyang’s leader had accepted a bribe from a businessman, but the project proposal didn’t go well, so the businessman asked the leader to return his money . However, the leader couldn’t return it, so a person in their team would be left holding the bag .
Although the final decision wasn’t made yet, Gu Qinyang was still in danger .
Jiang Xu said that he should turn to Gu Ning for help .
Gu Qinyang also had that idea, but felt embarrassed to do it . He was much older than Gu Ning after all .
Jiang Xu, however, held a different opinion . They were a family, and Gu Ning had powerful connections . It wouldn’t be difficult for her to help Gu Qinyang out .
Gu Qinyang agreed, and decided to discuss it with Gu Ning later . He was unwilling to take the blame . If he lost his job, he couldn’t support his family .
…
Chu Peihan called Gu Ning a while later, and said that they were already in the airport of City B now .
Chu Peihan and the others arrived at City B at 9:30 pm .
Leng Shaoting and Xin Bei also came to City B .
They reached the airport half an hour earlier than Chu Peihan .
Xin Bei and Cao Wenxin were boyfriend and girlfriend, so it was necessary for him to attend the wedding of Cao Wenxin’s uncle .
…
After dinner, Gu Ning booked a presidential suite for Mrs . Hao and the other two noble ladies, so that they could stay together in the hotel .
As for the rest of the people, they went back to Huafu Hills .
Gu Ning dropped Gu Man and the others at Huafu Hills, then left for the airport .
This time, Gu Ning drove her sports car, and Cao Wenxin drove her own car, while Qiao Ya drove an MPV . They were going to pick up a lot of people, so they needed three cars .
Therefore, Gao Yi stayed and guarded the house alone .
Dozens of minutes later, they arrived at the airport and waited at the exit .
All of a sudden, Gu Ning sensed a strong Yin approaching . She became alert at once and her sight fell on a middle-aged man .
The middle-aged man had grey hair and looked like he was in a bad mood . His whole body was covered in Yin, so Gu Ning believed that he must be a member of the Evil Practice .
What is he doing here?
Since she ran into the Evil Practice in City B, she had to figure it out .
“Excuse me, I need to deal with something . You can drive them home if I’m still absent when they show up,” Gu Ning said .
“Sure . ” Qiao Ya nodded, but Cao Wenxin was worried . “Ningning, what happened?” It must be something urgent if Gu Ning had to leave right now .
“Well, I just saw a person who hurt my friend, and I need to follow him,” Gu Ning said and strode away without delay .
Even though Cao Wenxin was worried, she didn’t ask further after seeing Gu Ning walking away in a hurry .
Gu Ning followed the middle-aged man towards a black private car . There was another man standing before it . He threw the car key to the middle-aged man, then the middle-aged man drove the black car away .
The other man, however, got in another car and left too .
Gu Ning’s car was stopped not far away from them, so she started her car to chase them at once .
Because the middle-aged man was a member of the Evil Practice, he also had acute senses . Gu Ning didn’t dare to come too close, but followed a little further behind .
The middle-aged man and the second man went in different directions a while later .
…
Around 9:07 pm, Leng Shaoting and Xin Bei walked out, and saw Cao Wenxin and Qiao Ya at a glance . However, Gu Ning was absent . Leng Shaoting frowned and looked around feeling disappointed, because Gu Ning had promised to pick him up in person .
“Shaoting, please don’t be upset . Ningning just had an emergency to deal with and left in a hurry . She asked us to drive you home,” Cao Wenxin said to Leng Shaoting before he asked .
“Why did she leave in a hurry?” Leng Shaoting got anxious hearing that .
“She told me that she saw a person who hurt her friend . ” Cao Wenxin explained .
Leng Shaoting didn’t know who the person was, but he understood that it must be something very important since Gu Ning had to dump him to deal with it .
“Why don’t you call her?” Cao Wenxin proposed .
“Nope, it’ll interrupt her,” Leng Shaoting said .
Afterwards, Leng Shaoting and Xin Bei left with Cao Wenxin, while Qiao Ya stayed to wait for Chu Peihan and the others .
…
Gu Ning was still following the middle-aged man’s car to an abandoned villa in a suburb at mid-mountain . The road outside the villa area was surrounded by mountains . Although there were street lights and vehicles passing by occasionally, it still looked gloomy and creepy .
