“Oh, what is it?” Gu Ning asked. Since Baili Zongyang looked so serious, Gu Ning put on a serious expression too, but she actually already had the answer. It must be about Wu Shunhua.

Baili Zongyang didn’t beat around the bush and was quite straightforward. “Well, the thing is that I ran by your house this morning, and I found a strange man spying on you in the nearby woods. I didn’t know whether you’re aware of it or not, but I still took a photo of him. Have a look.”

Saying that, he took out his phone and showed Gu Ning the picture of Wu Shunhua.

However, Baili Zongyang had doubts in his mind at this moment, because he didn’t feel the air of another cultivator ever since Gu Ning walked into this hotel, which meant that Wu Shunhua wasn’t nearby. He didn’t know whether Wu Shunhua stopped following Gu Ning, or whether Gu Ning accidentally avoided Wu Shunhua.

Gu Ning looked at a picture of Wu Shunhua and wasn’t surprised. Actually, they knew that someone was spying on her that morning, but they didn’t tell her until now. Why didn’t they tell her earlier?

Gu Ning didn’t say it aloud, but she understood why they chose to tell her that at this moment.

“Oh, it’s him.” Gu Ning pretended to be surprised.

Hearing that, Baili Zongyang and Baili Zongxue were struck dumb for a second, and had a premonition.

“Miss Gu, do you know him?” Baili Zongyang asked.

“Not really, but I’ve met him once before. His name is Wu Shunhua and he came to meet me with a woman named Dongfang Ziyu a few days ago. They wanted to cooperate with Colaine and build a factory in another city, but I turned them down. I have no intention to cooperate with other companies on that,” Gu Ning said.

She said that to tell Baili Zongyang that she wouldn’t agree to work with him if he wanted to do that as well.

Baili Zongyang and Baili Zongxue were slightly astonished. They exchanged a knowing glance and found that it was more complicated than they thought.

Luckily, Gu Ning refused to work with Dongfang Ziyu and Wu Shunhua. Nevertheless, it wasn’t possible for them to cooperate with Gu Ning either. In fact, Baili Zongyang indeed had the idea to become Gu Ning’s business partner, but he wouldn’t mention it since Gu Ning made it very clear that she had no intention to cooperate with other people on Colaine.

“I always have a feeling that someone was following me, but I don’t know who it was until now. Thank you very much,” Gu Ning said with sincerity.

“You’re welcome. We’re friends anyway,” Baili Zongxue said with a smile.

“Since he’s still following you, it means that he’s unwilling to give up, so you must be careful,” Baili Zongyang said with concern. Although he only formed a good relations.h.i.+p with Gu Ning to get her magical power, he cared about her too.

It wasn’t a secret that the Dongfang family had done many bad deeds for its family interests. Therefore, Baili Zongyang was worried that Gu Ning might be hurt by Dongfang Ziyu. Gu Ning was just a mortal, so she was no match for a cultivator.

Gu Ning understood that Baili Zongyang cared about her, so she said, “I will.”

After that, they began to chat with each other about something else. They went back once they finished the meal. Because they all lived in Century City, they went back in the same way, but in different cars.

When they entered Century City, both Gu Ning and Baili Zongyang paid attention to their surroundings, but they didn’t sense Wu Shunhua’s air, so it was either that Wu Shunhua was absent, or he was far away from them. Nevertheless, since they couldn’t sense his air, he couldn’t see them either.

Wu Shunhua now stayed in the hotel across the road from Century City.

He sent Dongfang Ziyu the video he took early that morning, but Dongfang Ziyu was in the cultivation world so she couldn’t receive it.

It wasn’t important, because Wu Shunhua simply wanted to tell Dongfang Ziyu that Gu Ning was a martial arts expert.

When it was almost 11 pm, Gu Ning disguised herself as “Tang Aining”, then put on a black casual suit before she walked outside.

Although there were many surveillance cameras in Century City, there were dark corners, so it was easy for Gu Ning to hide herself.

She had to go to see Qi Ziyue and Tang Yaxin tonight, or they would probably think that she was already gone.

After walking out of Century City, Gu Ning directly took a taxi heading to the hospital that Tang Yaxin was in.

It took her half an hour to get there.

This time, Gu Ning didn’t bother to hide, but swaggered inside, because n.o.body would know her real ident.i.ty.

There were two bodyguards guarding outside Tang Yaxin’s ward, and two bodyguards were playing on their phones on the sofa in the living room.

It wasn’t early, so Tang Yaxin and Ji Yijing were sleeping on their beds at this time. They couldn’t sleep well these days, but sometimes they could successfully fall asleep.

Because there were bodyguards in the ward, it wasn’t convenient for Gu Ning to get into it. She used her Jade Eyes to see what was on the floor above and beneath Tang Yaxin’s ward.
