Gu Ning, on the other hand, wasn’t afraid of Qi Tianlin at all, and she had even pointed a gun at him when they met each other for the first time.
Cao Wenxin and Tang Jiakai felt frightened every time they remembered the scene.
Even though Gu Ning and Qi Tianlin were friends now, Tang Jiakai and Cao Wenxin were still worried about her safety. Qi Tianlin was the leader of a famous illegal gang after all, and he wasn’t a kind man. What if Gu Ning annoyed him and he hurt her in anger?
“Are you free tonight? Why don’t we share a meal together?” Qi Tianlin said in a domineering tone.
“No, I need to stay with my family,” Gu Ning said.
“How about tomorrow?” Qi Tianlin asked again.
“Sorry, I need to fly back to the capital tomorrow,” Gu Ning said.
“Seriously?” Qi Tianlin was displeased with a frown.
“I need to deal with something important tomorrow,” Gu Ning said. “I…”
Before Gu Ning could finish, Qi Tianlin hung up on her.
Gu Ning didn’t mind, and continued to reply to her messages and answer other calls.
Because there was a lot of traffic on the road, they took nearly 40 minutes getting there. However, it was still several minutes away from 9 am.
At this time, countless people already gathered together outside the Gufan store. The majority were Gu Ning’s fans, with only a small number of them being pa.s.sers-by.
“This is a new store, right?”
“Yeah, but there are already many people here!”
“I’ve never heard of Gufan before.”
“It’s a newly-established brand, but the founder is also the owner of Jade Beauty Jewelry and Kouzi.”
“What? Do you mean the 19-year-old girl?”
Hearing the discussion of pa.s.sers-by, Gu Ning’s fans felt quite proud of her. “Right, the founder of Gufan is Gu Ning, the talented businesswoman, the genius, the kung fu master, and my G.o.ddess.”
“G.o.ddess Gu is my idol too.”
“I can’t wait to see her!”
“It’s still early now.”
“I can wait, but I must see her today.”
“Me too!”
“…”
Many pa.s.sers-by who didn’t know that this store was owned by Gu Ning were surprised, because they had heard about her. Gu Ning was quite famous on social media after all. Nevertheless, some still had a bad impression of Gu Ning, because they thought that Gu Ning was too ambitious and impetuous.
In their eyes, Gu Ning built her business empire too fast. Actually, both Jade Beauty Jewelry and Kouzi were new brands, but she didn’t hesitate to build another new brand.
Although Gu Ning had enough money and ability, she was too young when compared with other successful businessmen.
In fact, most people who had a bad impression of Gu Ning were jealous of her to some extent. Her business developed smoothly, and she made a lot more money than her peers.
“Wow, there are so many people!” Cao Wenxin was surprised too when she saw the large crowd outside the store.
“It proves that Ningning is really charming,” Tang Jiakai said with pride. He ached to tell the whole world that Gu Ning was his younger cousin.
Gu Ning was one of his family members, and he felt super proud of her.
“Right, Ningning indeed is very charming.” Cao Wenxin agreed.
Gu Ning smiled when she heard their conversation, but didn’t deny it. Although she wasn’t as popular as those A-list stars, she was famous too. There were also many haters who disliked her on the Internet, but she didn’t care about their opinions. She felt grateful for her fans’ support, but she wouldn’t hesitate to defend herself when it was necessary.
Once Cao Wenxin, Tang Jiakai, and Gu Ning appeared, they were the focus of people’s attention.
The three of them were all good-looking people, so it was hard for other people not to pay attention to them. Most importantly, they looked quite attractive in their new clothes.
“Oh, G.o.ddess Gu is here!”
“She is coming!”
