Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School - Chapter 138

Chapter 138

What had happened to Gu Xiaoxiao made Shao Feifei feel worried . Luckily Gu Ning didn’t have proof . Otherwise she could be expelled too .

However, what she didn’t know was that Gu Ning didn’t deal with her only because she wasn’t a threat in Gu Ning’s eyes . And the grudges between Gu Xiaoxiao and Gu Ning had existed for a long time .

In the afternoon, An Guangyao called Gu Ning . He told her that the Qin Family invited him to attend Master Qin’s sixtieth birthday party .

Gu Ning told him that she would be coming as well . Her schoolmate had invited her .

“Oh, uncle An, what do you plan to send?” Gu Ning asked .

“I just received the invitation letter today, so I don’t have an idea yet . Do you have any suggestions?” An Guangyao replied .

It was difficult for everyone to send a gift .

The Qin Family was a super-rich family . It lacked nothing so the gift couldn’t be too ordinary, but it was hard to find rare objects . Besides, it needed to be reasonably rare . If it wasn’t rare enough, it failed to show the sender’s respect . If it was too rare, it might be seen as over fawning .

It was an agonizing decision .

Gu Ning thought for a while before she said, “I have an object . You can take it . ”

“What is it?” An Guangyao asked with curiosity .

“It’s Wu Guanzhong’s landscape painting .  The Pond and The People ,” Gu Ning said .

“What? Wu Guanzhong’s landscape painting? The Pond and The People ?” An Guangyao was shocked .

An Guangyao had no interest in antiques, or paintings, but he had heard of Wu Guanzhong, who was a famous artist .

He had read a piece of news that one of Wu Guanzhong’s oil paintings had been sold at the price of five million yuan at auction .

Although not each of his paintings was expensive, it wouldn’t be cheap since it was Wu Guanzhong’s .

“Boss, I think that’s too priceless to be a gift . Other people will think that we want to ride on the Qin Family’s coattails,” An Guangyao said . He didn’t think it was a good idea .

“It’ll be fine . You can explain to others that this was bought accidentally by the real boss of Shenghua at the price of one thousand yuan . In that case, the gift won’t be too rare, or too expensive . At the same time, people will also understand that the real boss of Shenghua isn’t an ordinary person,” Gu Ning said .

“Accidentally bought it?” An Guangyao asked, “Boss, is it true that you accidentally bought it?”

Somehow, An Guangyao believed that Gu Ning must have accidentally bought the painting . He got excited .

“Yes! I accidentally bought it at the antique market in City G last weekend,” Gu Ning said .

Hearing that, An Guangyao rounded his eyes, then took a long breath in . Jesus, his boss was so unbelievably lucky! However, how could she know that it was real?

An Guangyao was growingly interested in Gu Ning now . She was becoming more and more mysterious in his eyes .

Gu Ning added, “I’ll give it to you tomorrow afternoon . ”

“Great,” An Guangyao replied . He hung up later .

He didn’t think that it was inappropriate to take the object from Gu Ning, because he represented Shenghua Real Estate, while Gu Ning was the real boss .

On the way home, Gu Ning met Xu Jinchen and Leng Shaoting when she passed by zone C that afternoon . They were walking out of zone C . Seeing Leng Shaoting, Gu Ning thought of his face of sheer panic . There was a meaningful smile on her lips .

Leng Shaoting was uneasy to meet her . He deliberately turned his head away .

“Hey, have you finished your classes?” Xu Jinchen greeted her with friendliness .

“Yes, have you eaten?” Gu Ning asked .

“We’re going to eat right now . Oh, we haven’t dined together since we met . We’re leaving tomorrow . And I have no idea when we’ll meet the next time . Why don’t you join us today? My treat!” Xu Jinchen invited . He really wanted to become friends with Gu Ning .

Leng Shaoting was displeased to see Xu Jinchen being so friendly to Gu Ning, but he didn’t stop him .

Probably because he wanted to dine with Gu Ning too . He didn’t even know it himself .

“Sure,” Gu Ning answered quickly . She glanced at Leng Shaoting at the same time . Obviously, Gu Ning answered for the sake of Leng Shaoting .

Xu Jinchen missed that detail . He was only happy to receive an affirmative answer . “What do you want to have?” he asked .

“Seafood,” Gu Ning replied without hesitation .

Hearing that, both Xu Jinchen and Leng Shaoting frowned .

Seeing that, Gu Ning was puzzled . “What’s wrong?”

“Um, Shaoting is allergic to seafood,” Xu Jinchen explained .

Gu Ning was surprised . Leng Shaoting had an allergy to seafood? Now she understood why he hadn’t eaten anything yesterday .

“It’s ok . I can have something else,” Leng Shaoting said airily . He was doing this for the good of Gu Ning .

“Well, I don’t want to have seafood now,” Gu Ning said, “There is a popular restaurant on the Youyi Road . Let’s go there!”

Leng Shaoting took a glance at Gu Ning . There was something unknown in his eyes . Gu Ning smiled at him . His heart lost a beat . Leng Shaoting immediately moved his sight away from her .

Gu Ning felt like laughing . Leng Shaoting was so shy and funny!

After that, Gu Ning called and told her mother that she was going to eat with her friends . Gu Man agreed .

Gu Man always dined with Gu Qing and her family . She was never alone now .

On the way, Xu Jinchen kept talking with Gu Ning . Leng Shaoting was displeased . He was eager to separate them, but it was only his thought, he didn’t actually do it .

“Gu Ning, you’re going to have the National College Entrance Exam soon . Which university is your aim?” Xu Jinchen asked .

“The Capital University,” Gu Ning said .

“The Capital University? Wow, you must be very academic! It’s good news though . My family lives in the capital . If you need any help in the future, feel free to turn to me . Although I’m not ‘all-purpose’, I’m good at solving problems . Um, may we exchange our numbers?” Xu Jinchen asked . He was nervous to ask that question .

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was more displeased . He said unconsciously, “He is busy . You can turn to me . ”

Leng Shaoting tried to stop Xu Jinchen from getting near Gu Ning .

“What? You’re the one who is much busier than us!” Xu Jinchen argued .

Indeed, compared with the others, Leng Shaoting was always occupied by work throughout the whole year . He stayed in the army no matter if he had tasks or not .

All of sudden, Xu Jinchen thought of something more important . “Wait a moment . Since when have you become so friendly to others?”
