Chapter 2816: Keep a Low Profile
He had courage, and wouldn’t give up just because it was dangerous. Otherwise the Dai family wouldn’t have been so influential today.
In fact, the Dai family had been through a lot before they earned a position in the capital. They had been on the verge of failure many times before, so Master Dai knew how dangerous this road was.
They must have effective control of it before taking action.
“Master Dai, you know it’s risky, but the Leng family has enough confidence to make it happen. As long as the Dai family is willing to work with us, I think there is an 80% probability that we’ll succeed,” said Jing Yunyao.
The probability was about 80% instead of 90% or 100%, because the Leng family couldn’t just do whatever they wanted, but an 80% probability wasn’t low.
!!
Hearing Jing Yunyao’s reply, Master Dai had hope.
“What do you need us to do?” asked Master Dai.
It was barely enough that the Dai family agreed to help, because there were many things they needed to do. Anyway, the Dai family would benefit the most from it.
“If the Dai family wants to replace the Chang family, we need to know the officials that are in the same faction as the Dai family. We’ll collect evidence of other families’ illegal deeds, then hand it to the Dai family. Your people can use the evidence to make some achievements. But please choose the most reliable and potential officials for that. As for the other things, we must keep it a secret for the time being. Please don’t blame me, Master Dai,” said Jing Yunyao.

“Sure, I understand,” said Master Dai. He was only a helper, not a force inside the Leng family’s faction, so there were some things he shouldn’t know.
After reaching a cooperation with Master Dai, Jing Yunyao left.
While Jing Yunyao was talking with Master Dai in the study, Mrs. Dai and Miss Dai were in the living room, so when Jing Yunyao was gone, Miss Dai asked Master Dai, “Dad, what happened? I didn’t think we have a private relationship with the Leng family.”
“Yeah.” Mrs. Dai joined their conversation.
“Alright, you don’t need to know. I’ll let you know once it’s allowed,” said Master Dai. Anyway, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
In that case, Mrs. Dai and Miss Dai said nothing further. They guessed it might be related to politics.
…
After Jing Yunyao walked out of the Dai family’s house, she called Master Leng and told him everything. After that, they began to collect evidence of the other important families’ illegal deeds.
Because they were going to conduct an investigation, they needed Gu Ning’s help, so Master Leng called her that afternoon.
Gu Ning agreed to help with alacrity. They needed hackers to collect evidence and people to secretly follow their targets at the same time.
Therefore, Gu Ning assigned the task to K’s team and a group of killers, like Gao Yi, Qiao Ya, Ba Tianyang and so on, that served her right now.
They were killers, so they were very good at investigating. As long as they took action and worked with K’s team, they would find whatever clues were left behind by those powerful families.
Gu Ning didn’t join them right away, but she would when it was necessary.
The Chamber of Commerce were holding a meeting that afternoon, and Gu Ning was a few minutes late because she needed to assign tasks, which aroused some people’s dissatisfaction.
“Oh, we’re all waiting for you, the busy boss of a large business group.”
“She isn’t only the boss of a large business group, she’s also the fiancée of Lord Leng! She’s definitely more important than us.”
“Right!”
“…”
“Shut up!” Nie Chenyang snapped at them.
Many people had already heard that Gu Ning was Leng Shaoting’s fiancée. After all, there were many people from high society in the chamber.
“President, it’s a compliment. Why are you so mad?”
“Right, are you one of her admirers?”
“…”
“Enough, I know you’re jealous of her. If you have enough energy, why don’t you focus on your business?” Nie Chenyang angrily said to them.
Was he one of Gu Ning’s admirers? Of course he liked her, because Gu Ning was so outstanding that it was hard for a man not to be impressed by her, but he had reason and a clear understanding of himself. He wouldn’t hold bias for Gu Ning just because he had a very good impression of her, nor would he hate her just because he couldn’t win her heart.
Nie Chenyang said what they were thinking, so they felt embarrassed.
“We’re not jealous of her. Why should we be jealous? There are plenty of people who are better than her.”
“Right, we’re not jealous of her at all!”
“…”
At this moment, Gu Ning opened her mouth. “Then shut your mouths. Stop mocking me. I said nothing, but you should know where to stop. If you dare judge me again, don’t blame me for teaching you a lesson.”
She wouldn’t let them attack her and not fight back. She wasn’t their parent, so she wouldn’t spoil them!
Once Gu Ning said that, some people closed their mouths in horror. Although they dared to laugh at Gu Ning openly, they were still unwilling to argue against her face to face.
However, Lu Juncheng jumped out at this moment. “Gu Ning, don’t be so arrogant. Although you’re the Leng family’s future granddaughter-in-law, you’re not married yet. No one knows what will happen in the future. You better keep a low profile.”
Lu Juncheng dared to say that to Gu Ning, not only because he didn’t get along with Gu Ning, but also because he wanted to please Yuan Yilin. When many people made fun of Gu Ning, Yuan Yilin was obviously pleased, but when they were cowed by Gu Ning’s words, Yuan Yilin looked disappointed. As a result, Lu Juncheng decided to stand out for Yuan Yilin.
Song Miaoge had told Gu Ning about what had happened between Lu Juncheng and Yuan Yilin. It was true, but not many people were aware of that.
Since it had already happened, no matter how much Yuan Yilin hated Lu Juncheng, she couldn’t do anything to him right now. After all, she would be humiliated if it was exposed.
However, it was impossible for her to get together with Lu Juncheng.
Either way, Lu Juncheng defended Yuan Yilin as always. To be specific, he was more protective of her than before. After having sex with her, Lu Juncheng was more devoted to her, even though they had only slept together once.
Yuan Yilin wasn’t a virgin, but Lu Juncheng didn’t care.
After that night, he bore Yuan Yilin’s taste in mind in case he forgot how delicious it was.
Chapter 2817: A Siren?
After they had sex under the effect of alcohol that night, they weren’t embarrassed when they met again because they didn’t think other people would know about it.
“I’m arrogant? It’s ridiculous. You attacked me as soon as I showed up. You’re the bad people here. And even if I’m a little arrogant, it has nothing to do with you. Who do you think you are? How dare you criticize me? If you dislike me, try to do whatever you want to me!” said Gu Ning seriously. She was really displeased with their behavior. She did nothing, but they blamed her for fighting back against their malice.
“You…” Lu Juncheng was mad, but didn’t know what to say.
In fact, he was unwilling to have a grudge against Gu Ning. He was simply jealous of her, so he found fault with her.
“Alright, time for the meeting!” Nie Chenyang gave Lu Juncheng a cold glance.
!!
Lu Juncheng was displeased, but couldn’t say anything further.
After that, the meeting began.
They held the meeting this time in order to raise money.
Gu Ning donated five hundred thousand yuan as usual, which was still the highest number among them. This time, they didn’t pick on her and urge her to donate more because she was rich. They didn’t dare to do that again.

After the meeting was over, Nie Chenyang invited them to have a meal together. Gu Ning accepted his invitation. Anyway, she needed to eat later, so she could join them to show her kindness.
This was the first time that Gu Ning had eaten with them.
Since Gu Ning was present, Yuan Yilin and Lu Juncheng were unhappy, but Gu Ning wasn’t affected at all.
Only a few people in the club were jealous of Gu Ning, the rest of them admired her. Therefore, they didn’t miss the chance to chat with her along the way to the restaurant and in the dining hall.
It filled Yuan Yilin with more jealousy.
After having the meal, they went back to their own classes for the evening class.
When Gu Ning had just reached the door of their classroom, she almost knocked into their head teacher who rushed outside.
“Sir, are you alright?” Gu Ning asked with concern.
“I’m fine. There is an emergency, and I need to leave right now,” said their head teacher in a trembling voice, then hurriedly walked away.
Gu Ning gave a glance at the back of their head teacher, then saw a picture of foreknowledge.
In the picture, their head teacher drove fast on the main road and ignored the red light at the crossroads, then was hit by a private car.
Without delay, Gu Ning chased after their head teacher.
It was obvious that their head teacher wasn’t calm and that something terrible must have happened.
Since Gu Ning had foreknowledge, she must do something.
After a few steps, she reached the side of their head teacher. “Sir, it seems something bad has happened. You’re not in a good condition to drive a car right now. Where are you going? Can I drive for you?”
He Qihang was struck dumb for a second. He wanted to turn Gu Ning down, but he was indeed in a bad mood, so he accepted Gu Ning’s kindness instead. “Please, thank you so much.”
“My pleasure,” said Gu Ning, then they ran towards the parking lot outside their school.
In the parking lot, they took a car and drove out without delay. “Mr. He, where are we going?” asked Gu Ning.
“The No. 9 Hospital,” said He Qihang.
“May I know what has happened?” asked Gu Ning again. Since she decided to help He Qihang, she must know more details.
“My wife went back to her parents’ home today, but my mother-in-law just called me. She told me that my wife had a fall. The baby has miscarried and my wife is in danger.” He Qihang choked. Even though Gu Ning didn’t look at him, she knew his eyes must be full of tears.
“Don’t worry, Mr. He, trust me. I can cure your wife,” said Gu Ning.
He Qihang understood that Gu Ning wasn’t an ordinary girl, so he felt relieved when she said that to him.
Gu Ning sped up. Because He Qihang wanted to get to the hospital as soon as possible, he didn’t pay much attention to Gu Ning’s driving skills, but he soon noticed that Gu Ning was extremely skilled at driving.
At that moment, there was a lot of traffic on the road, but Gu Ning skilfully overtook all of them, which amazed a lot of people.
However, some still swore at her and felt that she was rude and aggressive on the road. After all, she drove so fast which could easily cause a car accident.
Normally, they needed to spend about forty minutes on the road, but Gu Ning arrived at the hospital within half an hour. Actually, if there wasn’t so much traffic on the road, she could have halved the time!
However, if Gu Ning didn’t come with He Qihang, He Qihang would have gotten in a car accident halfway there. Although she didn’t know the result of He Qihang’s accident, he might die or be seriously injured if the accident happened.
At the hospital.
They stopped the car, then hurriedly ran towards the operating room.
Outside the operating room, He Qihang’s mother-in-law, brothers-in-law, and sisters-in-law were all waiting.
He Qihang’s mother-in-law was restless, but the other people didn’t seem worried at all.
Gu Ning followed He Qihang to the operation room. When they saw Gu Ning, they were mad.
He Qihang’s brother-in-law said acidly, “Oh, He Qihang, your wife is in the operating room now. Why do you come with another woman? If my sister knew, she would be angered to death.”
He was very unkind.
“Shut up! Don’t be so ridiculous!” Before He Qihang explained it, his mother-in-law snapped at his brother-in-law. She trusted He Qihang, so she didn’t think that there was an abnormal relationship between him and the girl.
Even if there was, He Qihang wouldn’t take the girl here.
“Am I wrong? Why does he come with a girl? She’s a siren!” He Qihang’s brother-in-law argued.
A Siren?
Gu Ning had nothing to do with a siren. Actually, she looked cold and a little aloof. It didn’t seem easy to get along with her.
Actually, He Qihang’s brother-in-law said that on purpose. He didn’t really think He Qihang had an abnormal relationship with this young girl.
“Shut up! You can’t bear the result if you anger someone you shouldn’t mess with.” He Qihang snapped at his brother-in-law at once, then apologized to Gu Ning. “Gu Ning, I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”
Chapter 2818: Ridiculous Joke
“I’m fine,” said Gu Ning, but she was displeased. She only wanted to save He Qihang’s face, so she didn’t show her anger.
“What? Is she someone?” He Qihang’s brother-in-law still looked very malicious. He slighted Gu Ning because he didn’t think He Qihang could have a relationship with an important figure.
The Li family was rich, although not very rich, while the He family was an ordinary family. Therefore, He Qihang’s two brothers-in-law never respected him.
“Yes, I’m someone. But I don’t want to waste time on you. If you think you’re superior to other people, keep on being so arrogant and I’ll teach you a lesson afterwards,” said Gu Ning. She couldn’t stand the man’s attitude any longer.
She tolerated it for He Qihang’s sake, but the man didn’t care about He Qihang’s face at all. As a result, there was no need for Gu Ning to care about the man’s feelings.
!!
Who did he think he was? There was no relationship between them. Why should she tolerate him?
“You…” Li Mingzhang was angry, but didn’t believe that Gu Ning was an important figure. He only felt humiliated by her.
“Oh, young girl, you sound very aggressive. Qihang, shouldn’t you say something?” He Qihang’s older brother-in-law joined them at this moment. He had the same attitude as Li Mingzhang. Both of them looked down their noses at Gu Ning.
“What do you expect Mr. He to say? It has nothing to do with him. And no one can shut my mouth,” said Gu Ning, looking coldly at Li Mingcun.
ReadNovelFull.me
Li Mingcun had been to many places, so he could see that Gu Ning indeed had some connections from the way she held herself. Therefore, he said nothing further.
If Gu Ning was really an important figure, it wouldn’t do them any good if they angered her.
However, he was still mad at Gu Ning’s words.
He Qihang wanted to help Gu Ning, but Li Mingcun said nothing further, so he stayed quiet. A while later, he asked his mother-in-law, “Mom, how did Mingyue fall? Why is it so serious?”
Hearing that, He Qihang’s mother-in-law looked a little guilty and didn’t know how to explain it.
It was not only He Qihang’s mother-in-law, the others had the same expression.
He Qihang didn’t pay attention to other people, but he clearly saw the guilt on his mother-in-law’s face. He was immediately angry because he felt it might not be an accident.
“Mom, tell me!” He Qihang urged. He really wanted to know what exactly had happened.
“She fell by accident,” said Mrs. Li, but even she didn’t believe her words.
“I bet one of you pushed her!” said Gu Ning. She didn’t miss their reaction, so she made that guess.
She understood it wasn’t appropriate to say that before the truth came out, but Mrs. Li was obviously hiding something. If she didn’t take a bold move, the truth would never come out.
Li Mingzhang subconsciously retorted. “I didn’t do it on purpose. I just lightly touched her and she fell down the stairs.”
The moment he finished speaking, he realized that he shouldn’t have said that aloud. Therefore, he immediately closed his mouth, but it was too late.
“What? You pushed Mingyue?” He Qihang was furious and punched Li Mingzhang.
Whether Li Mingzhang did it on purpose or not, he caused Li Mingyue’s miscarriage. He deserved the punch.
“He Qihang, why did you punch me?” Li Mingzhang angrily questioned.
Mrs. Li didn’t want her younger son to be beaten, but she didn’t blame He Qihang either, because she knew He Qihang was in a very bad mood now.
In fact, even she wanted to give her younger son a slap, but she didn’t have the heart to really do that.
Watching Li Mingzhang being punched, Li Mingcun gloated over his brother’s bad luck.
The two brothers didn’t get along with each other. On the contrary, they were competing against one another for their family’s wealth.
“You caused my wife’s miscarriage and her life is still in danger. Shouldn’t I pay you back?” He Qihang raged.
“I told you I didn’t do it on purpose,” said Li Mingzhang. He thought He Qihang should forgive him because it was a mistake, and he believed it was unfair that He Qihang still punched him.
“It’s still your responsibility! Could you forgive me if I told you that I didn’t punch you on purpose?” shouted He Qihang.
“You…” Li Mingzhang was struck dumb and felt guilty, so he didn’t fight back.
Although Li Mingzhang said that he didn’t do it on purpose, He Qihang refused to believe it was just an accident. They must have had an argument, then Li Mingzhang pushed Li Mingyue.
However, he didn’t ask further about that right now because they wouldn’t be honest with him. Mrs. Li would defend her two sons.
A few minutes later, the door of the operation room opened. They immediately walked ahead and He Qihang asked nervously, “Doctor, how’s my wife?”
“She’s still in critical condition. And she’s losing a lot of blood. We need to do a blood transfusion, but we lack blood in the hospital,” said the doctor.
Hearing that, He Qihang was hit heavily and almost fainted.
“What can we do now?” asked He Qihang.
“I can help,” said Gu Ning at this moment.
The next moment, everyone turned to look at her.
However, other than He Qihang, no one trusted her and they even felt it was ridiculous. What Gu Ning said was a complete joke in their ears.
“You can help? That’s a ridiculous joke. Who do you think you are? Are you a doctor?” Li Mingzhang said to mock Gu Ning.
“Miss, this is very serious. Please don’t joke about it,” said the doctor seriously, showing obvious disdain for Gu Ning.
“Mr. He, do you trust me?” Gu Ning didn’t care about other people’s opinions and directly asked He Qihang.
As long as He Qihang agreed, the other people couldn’t stop her.
“Of course!” said He Qihang. He wouldn’t trust other people, but he trusted Gu Ning.
“Qihang…” Mrs. Li was mad and couldn’t believe her ears. She didn’t expect He Qihang to trust a young girl. “No, I don’t trust you. You can’t treat my daughter. If anything happens, you can’t bear the result.”
Gu Ning, however, ignored her and directly went into the operating room.
Chapter 2819: Lose Reason?
“You can’t go in!” The doctor immediately went to stop her, but he was too late. Gu Ning was already in the operating room, so he had to follow her.
“Jesus, stop her now!” Seeing that, Mrs. Li shouted angrily.
Gu Ning was just a young girl. She wasn’t a doctor!
“How dare she go into the operating room without permission! Let me catch her,” said Li Mingzhang angrily. Without delay, he walked to the operating room, wanting to bring Gu Ning out.
“Stop right there!” He Qihang shouted to stop Li Mingzhang at once, because he trusted Gu Ning.
!!
“He Qihang, how can you let the young girl do whatever she wants? Do you want my older sister to die quickly so that you can marry a new woman?” Li Mingzhang grabbed He Qihang’s collar and angrily criticized him.
“Qihang, I can’t believe that you chose to trust a young girl. Can you take the responsibility if anything happens to Mingyue?” Li Mingcun said.
“Qihang, you greatly disappointed me,” said Mrs. Li.
“I will pay with my life for it if anything bad happens to Mingyue, alright?” said He Qihang. He cared about Li Mingyue more than any of them. He wouldn’t take risks unless he had the confidence.
ReadNovelFull.me
Although they were Li Mingyue’s family, they didn’t really care about her because they always valued sons above daughters.
Only Mrs. Li cared a little about Li Mingyue. However, if their benefits were involved, she would still side with her sons even if it was her sons’ fault.
“You…” They didn’t know what to say.
…
After Gu Ning ran into the operating room, doctors inside were surprised. “Hey, who are you? You shouldn’t come in here!” A doctor wanted to stop Gu Ning.
Gu Ning swiftly avoided him.
The next moment, she quickly approached the operating table, unplugged Li Mingyue’s oxygen tube, and put a power crystal into her mouth. In the blink of an eye, she finished everything, leaving the doctors in shock.
“What did you do?” After those doctors came back to their senses, they were all frightened. Because several doctors were in the middle of the operation, it was inconvenient for them to deal with Gu Ning, so the two doctors who failed to stop Gu Ning just then tried to stop her once more.
“I can save her life,” said Gu Ning seriously, but no one believed it, and the two doctors still tried to catch her.
Gu Ning understood that it was unrealistic if she wanted them to be quiet and leave the operation to her, so she took out her name card and handed it to them. “If anything bad happens, I will take responsibility.”
On the name card were written a few simple words: The Chairman of the Shengning Organization, Gu Ning.
Reading the name card, the two doctors were amazed. Then they turned to look at Gu Ning in surprise.
She was the chairman of the Shengning Organization?
The Shengning Organization was so famous that they had all heard of it. They were also aware that its chairman was a young girl named Gu Ning, but they didn’t know what the girl was like, because they didn’t pay special attention to it.
As a result, they were astonished and doubtful.
“There is just a name card. We can’t believe you just because of that. And even if you are Gu Ning, why should we leave the patient to you?” asked a doctor.
“Oh, the bleeding is slowing down.” Right at that moment, one doctor exclaimed in surprise.
Hearing that, they turned to look at Li Mingyue’s wound and the bleeding was indeed slowing down. Then they looked at Gu Ning in amazement.
Could this girl really save the patient’s life?
After that, another doctor said, “Her heartbeat is going back to normal.”
This time, they were more surprised.
“Can you really save her life?” The attending physician asked Gu Ning seriously. Gu Ning won a little trust from him, because Li Mingyue slowly stopped bleeding and her heartbeat gradually went back to normal, but could a single pill stop the patient from bleeding? It was unbelievable!
“I just helped her take a pill. I’ll stop her from bleeding and let her regain her strength afterwards so that the operation can continue. You witnessed it with your eyes, so I think you should believe me,” said Gu Ning.
A single power crystal could stop Li Mingyue from bleeding, so the operation could continue, but Gu Ning still needed to put magical power into her body to make sure that she would survive.
Anyway, Li Mingyue’s life was out of danger now. It would be fine even if Gu Ning didn’t put magical power into her body.
“It’s hard to say. No matter what, you still need to take responsibility if anything bad happens to the patient,” said the attending physician.
“Sure.” Gu Ning answered.
Therefore, the doctors continued to do the operation, while Gu Ning stood at the side. She secretly released magical power and put it into Li Mingyue’s body.
It wasn’t necessary for Gu Ning to touch Li Mingyue. She could put magical power into her body through the air as well, but it wouldn’t be as efficient.
Anyway, it was helpful.
When the magical power was released, those doctors were affected too, but positively because they suddenly felt refreshed.
They were surprised, but didn’t think further about that.
…
Outside. The Li family were mad when those doctors didn’t chase Gu Ning out.
“What’s going on here? Why don’t they chase her out? How could they let her do whatever she wants?” shouted Li Mingzhang.
“Qihang, why do you trust the girl so much? She’s so young and she isn’t a doctor!” Mrs. Li cried.
“Because she can save Mingyue’s life,” said He Qihang.
“I think you’ve lost your mind. What’s your relationship with her?” Li Mingzhang questioned. He believed their relationship was abnormal.
“Don’t make rumors. She isn’t someone you can mess with. Don’t blame me for not reminding you. If you dare anger her, she can easily unseat the Li family.” He Qihang warned seriously. Although Gu Ning wouldn’t bother to punish the Li family just because of their bad attitude towards her, it was necessary for He Qihang to stop Li Mingzhang from bad-mouthing Gu Ning.
“You…”
Li Mingzhang was angry. Although he didn’t doubt He Qihang’s words, he was still displeased.
“Who is she?” asked Li Mingcun curiously. He didn’t doubt He Qihang’s words either.
As a teacher of the Capital University, He Qihang had many students who were born in super-rich or powerful families.
“Her name is Gu Ning. She is a student of mine and the chairman of the Shengning Organization. She is also the future granddaughter-in-law of the Leng family,” said He Qihang. Because it wasn’t a secret, he didn’t bother to hide it.
“What?”
Hearing that, they were all surprised. They didn’t expect Gu Ning to be so important.
Chapter 2820: Too Naive or Too Self-centered?
They had all heard of the Shengning Organization and the Leng family, but both the Shengning Organization and the Leng family were totally beyond their circle.
And Gu Ning was He Qihang’s student.
All of a sudden, Li Mingzhang and Li Mingcun felt jealous of He Qihang. How could He Qihang have a relationship with such an important figure?
“D-Did you say she’s the chairman of the Shengning Organization and the Leng family’s future granddaughter-in-law?” asked Mrs. Li. She was too shocked to believe it.
“Yes,” said He Qihang.
!!
“So what? Even though she’s the chairman of the Shengning Organization and the Leng family’s future granddaughter-in-law, it doesn’t mean she can save Mingyue’s life.” Li Mingzhang argued acidly.
“Since Qihang trusts Chairman Gu, I believe Chairman Gu has the ability to save Mingyue’s life. And she’s still in the operating room, which means the doctors are also convinced by her. Perhaps she can be helpful,” said Li Mingcun. Surprisingly, he was defending Gu Ning.
“Mingcun, you…” Li Mingzhang couldn’t believe his ears.
Although they didn’t get along, they always teamed up against He Qihang.

“Given Chairman Gu’s status, I don’t think she’ll joke about a life,” said Li Mingcun. It sounded as if he was educating Li Mingzhang, but he did indeed believe that Gu Ning wouldn’t make decisions without careful thought. If Gu Ning was impulsive, she wouldn’t be able to build a successful business.
Li Mingzhang was struck dumb. He was mad, but didn’t know what to say because Li Mingcun was right.
“Um, Qihang.” Li Mingcun turned to He Qihang with slight embarrassment. “Since Gu Ning is your student and she’s so influential, can you ask her to do our family a little favor? It’s not easy to do business nowadays, and we encountered some trouble, so…”
Li Mingcun tried to form a relationship with Gu Ning through He Qihang since the Li family might benefit from that.
“Right, Qihang, you should help us with that. After all, we’re a family!” Li Mingzhang joined their conversation at once. He was unwilling to let Li Mingcun take the credit if it really worked.
Li Mingcun had a good attitude, but Li Mingzhang was a little aggressive. He was obviously forcing He Qihang to help them.
“She’s just my student. I’m not in a position to ask her for help,” said He Qihang. The two brothers were really calculating. To be frank, he wouldn’t do them a favor like that.
“He Qihang, how can you say that? You’re so ungrateful. Why can’t you help us? Aren’t we a family?” Li Mingzhang was mad.
“Right, she’s your student, so she shouldn’t refuse to help you,” said Li Mingcun. He showed obvious unhappiness on his face, feeling that He Qihang was deliberately embarrassing them.
“Why do you think she should help me just because she’s my student? She just studies in the Capital University. We’re not close at all. And I have plenty of students. Do all of them have to help me? Are you too naive or too self-centered? You don’t have a clear self-understanding, but I have. Don’t drag me into trouble just for your own benefits!” He Qihang argued. He was not afraid of them; he had just always tolerated their behavior, but now he had enough of it.
Hearing that, Li Mingcun and Li Mingzhang were mad. “Fine, you don’t want to help us, but do you have to humiliate us like that? We take you as our family, so we turned to you for help. How can you say we’re naive and…”
“Right, He Qihang, it’s too much. After all, if the Li family gets better, you can also benefit from that,” Li Mingzhang said angrily.
“Li Mingzhang, did you forget how you argued against her earlier? It’s already very nice of her if she doesn’t pay you back. How can you expect her to do you a favor? Who do you think you are?” said He Qihang, laughing at Li Mingzhang.
“You…” Li Mingzhang was struck dumb for a moment and felt embarrassed. Obviously, he had forgotten.
Mrs. Li actually had the same idea, but she didn’t open her mouth after hearing their argument. After all, He Qihang was just Gu Ning’s teacher and they weren’t close. Why should Gu Ning help them?
Li Mingzhang and Li Mingcun didn’t know what else they could say, but they disliked He Qihang more than ever. They believed that He Qihang refused to help them.
…
In the operating room.
Everything went smoothly and the patient was getting better and better, shocking all the doctors.
However, no matter how astonished they were, they needed to focus on the operation. So they would ask Gu Ning about it after the operation was done.
Half an hour later, it was finished. From the beginning to the end, they stayed in the room for nearly an hour, but they didn’t feel tired at all.
Normally, it was tiring to do an operation for an hour and they often needed to complete an operation in shifts to make sure they had enough energy and strength.
“The operation was very successful and the patient is already getting better. That has never happened before!” said the attending physician happily. He knew the credit should go to Gu Ning.
Therefore, the attending physician thanked Gu Ning sincerely. “Miss Gu, thank you so much for your help, but I have to say what you did earlier is very rude. Out of duty, we had to be impolite to you. I understand it’s hard for people to believe you, but the result is good, so let’s get over it.”
“I know, but it was an emergency. Even if I wasted a lot of time on explaining, you wouldn’t believe me either. So I directly came in. Thank you for your understanding,” said Gu Ning. The doctor was very nice, so Gu Ning had a good attitude.
“However, Miss Gu, can you tell me what medicine that was? It has unbelievable effects,” asked the attending physician.
Hearing that, everyone looked at Gu Ning with anticipation and curiosity.
“I’m sorry, it’s my master’s unique medicine. I don’t know its formula, but I know it’s really good at healing and is capable of curing many diseases.” Gu Ning said, “Although it’s effective, there isn’t much of it. I only had one with me, but it was taken by Miss Li, so I no longer have any with me now.”
