2332 Have a Game When You're Free

After Gu Ning was gone, Leng Shaoting also left.

While Gu Ning waited to board, she received a call from Baili Zongyang.

"Hey, what are you doing now?" Baili Zongyang asked.

"I'm at the airport. I'm going back to City B. May I help?" Gu Ning asked. Baili Zongyang normally wouldn't call her when there was nothing wrong. They weren't familiar enough to have a casual talk on the phone. Therefore, Baili Zongyang only called Gu Ning when he needed her help.

"Oh, I see. Um, I just need a favor. Can you help me with something?" Baili Zongyang said with slight embarrassment.

"What is it?" Gu Ning said.

"After I learned that your fiancé is Qing Feng, I always had the idea of having a spar against him for fun. I just didn't know how to ask. However, a few days ago, my master, the Senior Elder of Tiandaozong, visited Senior Shangguan's residence and met you. He told me that he wanted me to have a competition with Qing Feng if it's possible, but he isn't familiar with Senior Shangguan, so he didn't know how to plan it. I thought that since we're not strangers, you might be able to help me with that. Can you ask your fiancé whether he's willing to have a spar against me?" Baili Zongyang said.

Baili Zongyang understood that Leng Shaoting wouldn't refuse if his master brought him to see Leng Shaoting, because Leng Shaoting had given his master that promise. However, he wasn't sure whether Leng Shaoting was truly willing.

If Leng Shaoting was unwilling to do that, he wouldn't insist, so he hoped that Gu Ning could help him ask if Leng Shaoting was willing.

As Shangguan Yang's disciple, Leng Shaoting wouldn't say no if Shangguan Yang asked him to do it. However, Gu Ning was Leng Shaoting's fiancée, so Leng Shaoting didn't need to take too many things into account.

Baili Zongyang originally didn't rush, and decided to talk to Gu Ning about that when they met. His master, however, wouldn't stop talking about it. Therefore, he called Gu Ning today.

…

Gu Ning was a little surprised when she heard that Baili Zongyang was Yu Jianghong's disciple, but she didn't think it was a big deal that Baili Zongyang wanted to have a spar against Leng Shaoting.

"Oh, Elder Yu is your master?" Gu Ning said, "Of course you can have a spar against Shaoting. I believe he'll be more than willing to do that. It can also help him improve his skills. Shaoting will be going back to the military base today, and I'm going to City B too. Can I call you when we're free? We can do it then."

Baili Zongyang was relieved when Gu Ning told him that Leng Shaoting was willing to have a spar against him. If he was turned down, it would be embarrassing. "Sure, no need to rush. We can do it when we're all free."

After hanging up, Gu Ning called Leng Shaoting and told him about it.

Although she knew that Leng Shaoting was willing to have a competition with Baili Zongyang and accepted Baili Zongyang's invitation for him, she still felt that she needed to talk to Leng Shaoting about it to show respect for him.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting agreed.

Baili Zongyang also told his master about it. Yu Jianghong didn't know that Baili Zongyang had met Qing Feng and Qing He before until now. They also kept in touch.

However, Baili Zongyang didn't tell him Qing Feng's and Qing He's names in the mortals' world.

Instantly, Yu Jianghong got mad. "You young brat, why didn't you tell me that you've met them?"

He kept on wondering how he should bring Baili Zongyang to see them, but it turned out that they had already met before.

"Didn't you say you want to bring me to see them? I left the chance to you. If you weren't bothered by it, I wouldn't have called her." Baili Zongyang joked with Yu Jianghong.

"You young brat, how dare you make fun of me!" Yu Jianghong was mad, but he understood why Baili Zongyang didn't tell him that he had met Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting before.

Now that Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning agreed to have a competition with Baili Zongyang, Yu Jianghong was relieved.

…

Gu Ning had told the Tang family that she was coming back to City B beforehand, so the Tang family arranged for a chauffeur to pick her up. Therefore, Gu Ning didn't ask her subordinate to pick her up.

Gu Ning didn't rush to go to her company in City B, and instead went to see her family first.

All the members of the Tang family were excited to see Gu Ning back. They knew that Gu Ning was a mature and stable girl, but she was very young. As the chairman of a large business group, they were worried that she might be too stressed.

Gu Ning was their pride, and they cared about her.

Knowing that Gu Ning was home, Cao Wenxin came to see her at once. Tang Jiakai was also back and they kept talking to Gu Ning about everything.

They kept in touch on WeChat, but they rarely met. It was totally different when they could meet in reality.

Gu Ning said that she was doing very well, and they could see that she had a ruddy face and kept in shape, so they were relieved.

After having dinner and resting for a while, Cao Wenxin left. Because Cao Wenxin had her own career now and she needed to work tomorrow morning, she didn't stay.

If she didn't need to work, she would have stayed and slept with Gu Ning.

The next day, Gu Ning went to her company after lunch.

Gu Ning didn't tell Fu Yanming that she would come to the company. She didn't mean to surprise him. Even if she didn't trust Fu Yanming, Chen Cangyi had her trust. After all, she hired him. Moreover, Fu Yanming managed the company very well.

Gu Ning didn't know why. Every time she came to the company, she ran into unpleasant things. Last time, Fu Yanming was in trouble with his ex-wife, and this time it was about a general staff member.

As soon as Gu Ning's car entered the company gate, she saw under a tree not far from it, a flimsy and shabby old man in his 60s standing there. A bag in both hands, he looked at the gate, shivering with cold.

He didn't seem to be a beggar, and must be looking for someone.

Gu Ning had sympathy for such a poor old man, so she didn't drive to the underground parking lot. She directly stopped the car at the parking space outside the company. Afterwards, she got out of her car and walked towards the old man.
