Chapter 217: Compete for A Man?

Gu Ning said it calmly, but Gu Qinyang was anxious.
“What did you do to Xiaoxiao?” Gu Qinyang asked.
“Gu Xiaoxiao hired some hoodlums to rape me, but I know kung fu and I beat them down onto the ground. She was then expelled by our school. I spread the news across City F, and no school was willing to accept her. She had to leave City F. I didn’t call the police and throw her into prison, but her family still blamed me. I don’t care about them now. If anyone dares to hurt me, I’ll definitely pay him or her back.” Gu Ning didn’t mind telling Gu Qinyang the details, because she planned to remind him to behave himself.
Gu Ning had no intention to cut Gu Qinyang’s family off, for now. Gu Qinyang’s family had invited Gu Qing and Gu Man to dine together when they had been in City F last time, which meant that Gu Qinyang still treated Gu Qing and Gu Man as his family, although he disliked his sisters.
Gu Ning didn’t care about the Gu Family, but they were Gu Qing and Gu Man’s family after all.
Although Gu Qing and Gu Man were already disappointed in them, they still longed for care and love from their family deep down in their hearts. As long as Gu Qinyang behave himself, Gu Ning wouldn’t cut him off. However, if he schemed against her like Gu Qinxiang’s family, Gu Ning wouldn’t be kind to him either.
Hearing that, Gu Qinyang couldn’t help talking a long cold breath in. Gu Qinxiang had only told him that Gu Xiaoxiao had annoyed a student from a powerful family, so Gu Xiaoxiao had transferred to another city for her own safety. If what Gu Ning told him was true, Gu Xiaoxiao was really evil, but Gu Ning wasn’t simple either if she had been able to spread the news across the city.
Although Gu Qinyang still doubted Gu Ning’s ability, he couldn’t ignore the possibility. Thus he wasn’t willing to be involved in this mess for now.
Gu Qinyang was selfish and felt jealous of Gu Qing and Gu Man because they suddenly became rich. However, he also knew that it had nothing to do with him. He indeed had no right to be involved.
Hao Ran went back to his school and told his friends what his mother had done. His mother called him to join a meal and make friends with her friend’s daughter. Unexpectedly, the daughter of his mother’s friend was exactly his boss!
His friends all joked that Hao Ran and Gu Ning were meant to be good friends.
In the afternoon, Gu Ning had an appointment with An Qian to dine together.
An Qian was off-duty after 5:30 pm, and the Center Hospital wasn’t far away from downtown. It only took several minutes to get there by car.
Gu Ning arrived at the restaurant before 5:30 pm, and An Qian arrived a little later at 5:40 pm.
“Ningning.”
An Qian was excited to see Gu Ning.
“Hi!” Gu Ning immediately stood up to welcome her.
“You finally called me out. I’ve been waiting for your call! The National College Entrance Exam is just around the corner, and I was afraid to affect your studying so I don’t dare to call you,” An Qian slightly complained.
Gu Ning felt a little embarrassed. She wasn’t busy studying at all! Instead, she was busy flying to City G to deal with business.
“Um, I have been very busy these days, but I called you as soon as I was free,” Gu Ning explained.
“Alright, I forgive you,” An Qian said. She wasn’t really mad at Gu Ning, because she understood that Gu Ning as a senior student had to be occupied by studying and school assignments.
“What do you want to have?” Gu Ning handed the menu to An Qian.
An Qian took it and read for a while. “I think I want steak, a fillet, done medium-well, and black pepper sauce.”
“I’ll have the same!” Gu Ning said.
“Oh, I brought you a gift,” Gu Ning said, taking a small box out of her backpack.
“A gift for me?” An Qian was surprised, but she didn’t take the box right away. “What is it?”
She understood that Gu Ning was sending her a gift because she had taken care of Gu Man, but it was nothing compared to what Gu Ning had done for her. If it was only an ordinary gift, she would take it, but if it was too expensive, she wouldn’t accept it.
Gu Ning knew what was in An Qian’s mind, so she told a white lie, “Just a jade pendant. It’s not expensive at all. I went to City G the other day and bought it because it’s beautiful.”
Since Gu Ning said so, An Qian didn’t reject. “Thanks!”
The minute she saw the jade pendant in the shape of a leaf, An Qian liked it a lot. “Wow! It’s so pretty!”
She put it on afterwards, and even took a photo with it.
An Qian knew less about jade, so she had no idea about its type, nor level. After the meal, they went to shop together. Gu Ning wasn’t busy today, so she was glad to be An Qian’s company.
Just as Gu Ning and An Qian entered the store, three young women around 26-years-old came inside too. However, when they noticed An Qian, they all changed their expressions. One of them said acidly, “Oh, isn’t this Doctor An? What a coincidence!”
Seeing the three women, An Qian was displeased too. There was impatience and hatred in her eyes. An Qian ignored them at once.
“An Qian. Where are your manners? How can you be so impolite and ignore us?” the woman asked sarcastically.
This time, An Qian couldn’t stay quiet any more. She looked to the woman, saying coldly, “Chen Mengqi, I don’t think you’re qualified to judge my manners. Can’t you treat me as a common stranger?”
“An Qian, I want to do so, but I can’t because you robbed me of my man!” Chen Mengqi clenched her teeth in anger.
Hearing that, Gu Ning frowned a little. Although she didn’t believe that An Qian would do so, she couldn’t jump to conclusions before she knew the details.
“Chen Mengqi, you’re insane! I never robbed you of your man! Le Zhengyu isn’t your man. You can’t get him because you don’t deserve him. He dislikes you, and you can’t blame me for that!” An Qian snapped.
Now, Gu Ning understood what was going on to some extent.
