She had the intention of letting him go, but he wouldn’t leave her alone. If she didn’t do something right now, she might miss this great chance to punish him.
Gu Ning put on a vague smile and said meaningfully, “Qi Ziyue, aren’t you trying to keep your position in the Tang family by being together with me? I know Tang Yaxin is your real girlfriend. You refused to have s.e.x with me, not because you respect me, but because you don’t want to anger Tang Yaxin. If she’s mad, she’ll abandon you, and you won’t be able to take revenge.”
Hearing that, Qi Ziyue turned pale in an instant. Gu Ning really knew his dirty secret which even Tang Bingsen and Tang Yaxin were unaware of.
The next second, Qi Ziyue became aggressive and even had the idea of killing Gu Ning.
Since Tang Aining found out his dirty secret, he couldn’t allow her to live. If she told Tang Bingsen about that, his plan would be totally ruined.
“Catch her!” Qi Ziyue gave an order at once. Those bodyguards were his people, so he could trust them. Even if he killed Tang Aining, they wouldn’t tell Tang Bingsen.
The moment Qi Ziyue finished, the bodyguards rushed to catch Gu Ning. If she were still Tang Aining before her reincarnation, it might take her some time to beat all of them. However, now she was a different person and she was much stronger than before.
Once she moved, the bodyguards were barely comparable to her and could hardly fight back. Within a minute, they were all beaten up by Gu Ning without any strength to struggle.
“You…”
Qi Ziyue backed away in horror. Since when did Tang Aining become so strong? He knew that Tang Aining was very strong, but it turned out that she was much stronger than he thought.
“What?” Gu Ning glared at him, and walked towards him step by step. Qi Ziyue was scared and stepped back with a deathly pale face.
“W-What do you want to do?” Qi Ziyue asked. Although he could see that she was unkind to him, he still hoped that she could let him go.
If Tang Aining attacked him, he would be injured in a second.
“What do I want to do? I warned you not to mess with me, but you wouldn’t listen.” Gu Ning sneered.
“Aining, I didn’t mean to hurt you. It’s your father who ordered me to take you back to the Tang family’s house. He told me if you refuse, I can use violence.” Qi Ziyue explained. Although it was the truth, he wouldn’t admit that it was actually his idea to kill Tang Aining, or he would be doomed.
“And, Aining, I really love you. I don’t understand why you think I’m taking advantage of you. I swear there is nothing between me and Tang Yaxin,” said Qi Ziyue. He even acted hurt as if he was purely innocent.
“I wasn’t born yesterday!” Gu Ning sneered. She didn’t bother to waste more time on Qi Ziyue, and directly attacked him.
Qi Ziyue subconsciously fought back, but he was too weak compared with Gu Ning.
Once he failed, Gu Ning kicked him to the ground. Before Qi Ziyue could get back to his feet, Gu Ning punched and kicked him heavily.
She didn’t mean to injure him seriously, because she had no intention of disabling or killing him. She just wanted to vent her anger on him and beat him black and blue.
Qi Ziyue screamed in pain and attracted the attention of other people in the parking lot. However, there were only a few people in the parking lot.
Several people stood out because they had a sense of justice, but they soon figured out that Qi Ziyue came to cause the woman trouble. Unfortunately, the woman beat him instead. Therefore, n.o.body bothered to stop Gu Ning.
In fact, Gu Ning looked very violent, and no one dared to stop her. They didn’t want her to vent her anger on them.
After a while, Gu Ning stopped. She coldly looked at Qi Ziyue who shrank on the ground and warned him. “Disappear from my sight from now on. Don’t ever try to fool me again, or I’ll injure you more seriously than this time.”
As soon as Gu Ning finished, she got in her car and drove away. She didn’t want to go back to her apartment now.
She didn’t go to stay in a hotel either, but went straight to Mountain River Garden.
Although she wasn’t sure whether Leng Shaoting also kept the memories before they traveled back in time, she had to go see him.
Normally, Leng Shaoting would stay in Mountain River Garden when he was back in the capital. She also had a key to her house in Mountain River Garden, so she decided to go there.
She only wanted to find Leng Shaoting and try to go back to their life.
Mountain River Garden was the same before and after she moved in, while Leng Shaoting’s house had the same lock, so Gu Ning easily opened it and got inside.
The layout of the house was what she was familiar with.
After Gu Ning got in the house, she didn’t move anything in it. She just quietly sat on the sofa, looking at her phone, waiting for Leng Shaoting to call her back.
Even though Leng Shaoting could be gone for days or half a month to do a task and she might have to wait for many days, she still hoped that Leng Shaoting would reply to her as soon as possible.
It had been a long time. Xu Jinchen and the others must be very worried about them, and she was more anxious than them.
There were so many people who loved and cared about them in that world. If they heard that they were missing, they would be heart-broken.
Although what happened in that world might disappear because they traveled back in time, she had no idea what was really happening.
While she waited for Leng Shaoting to come back, she was extremely anxious. She didn’t feel sleepy at all, and checked her phone once in a while.
All of a sudden, at 3 am, Gu Ning heard a car stop outside the house. The first idea that appeared in her mind was that Leng Shaoting was back and she immediately used her Jade Eyes to look out.
It was really Leng Shaoting’s car. He stopped it outside the door, then got out of it to open the door before driving into the house.
Gu Ning didn’t stop her car in the house, but somewhere else.
She didn’t show up when Leng Shaoting was back, because she couldn’t sense the breath of a cultivator from him. It meant that Leng Shaoting wasn’t a cultivator now. In other words, this wasn’t the Leng Shaoting who was already engaged with her.
No wonder he didn’t call her back. If he was the Leng Shaoting she knew, he would certainly call her back after the accident happened.. He would search for her and make sure that they were safe, then they would go to Xianyun Mountain together to see whether they could go back to their life.
