Everyone was shocked, but when they found out the hole in the nearby car, they understood what had just happened.

“Mayor!”

Two men immediately went to help the middle-aged man who was knocked down by Gu Ning.

Mayor? Gu Ning was struck dumb. This man is the mayor?

“Zhenglin!”

Master Yan’s face turned pale from fear. He almost fainted. Luckily, Zhou Zhenghong supported him. Then he quickly walked over.

Yan Zhenglin felt hurt heavily all over his body. He looked embarrassed too with dust all over his clothes, but despite all of that, he calmed himself down and said, “I’m fine.”

Although Yan Zhenglin was still confused, he knew that it was Gu Ning who had save his life by knocking him away. He thanked her at once, “Thank you so much! If it hadn’t been for you, I would have been dead already.”

Before Gu Ning could say a word, Master Yan seized her hands trembling and crying. “Girl Gu, thank you so much! You’ve saved my son’s life. Otherwise...”

Oh, the mayor was Master Yan’s son!

He must be the person that Master Yan planned to introduce to her.

“Grandpa Yan, Mayor Yan, it’s no big deal. It happened too fast, so I did it without second thought. Please forgive my rude behavior,” Gu Ning said. Her attitude received appreciation from others.

Yan Zhenglin then knew that Master Yan must know Gu Ning.

“Ha-ha, very well. You can remain modest while staying polite. I admire you for that!” Yan Zhenglin said and laughed happily. He didn’t put on airs at all, even though he was an important official.

“However, you’ve rescued my life. I’ll bear your kindness in mind. This is my name card. If you have any trouble you can’t deal with in the future, please feel free to call me. However, let’s be candid here, if you do anything immoral or illegal, I won’t help you,” Yan Zhenglin said seriously. He took out a name card handing it to Gu Ning.

“Thank you so much.” Gu Ning accepted the name card.

“Master Yan, I think that there is no need for you to introduce them to each other. If you hadn’t had Girl Gu here, probably...” Master Bai said. He was still shocked by the horror.

Hearing that, Yan Zhenglin figured out what was going on. His father planned to introduce him to this young girl, so that he could help her, but unexpectedly, she had saved his life.

No one knew what was going to happen the next second!

“Boss, are you alright?” Zhou Zhenghong asked Gu Ning worriedly.

“Oh, Girl Gu, are you alright?”

The rest suddenly realized they hadn’t checked Gu Ning’s safety yet, which was totally impolite.

“I’m fine. You don’t need to worry,” Gu Ning answered.

“Great to hear that,” Master Fu and others said, finally feeling relieved. Although they were all shocked and confused about why she was able to discover the sniper, they didn’t ask.

After that, they said good-bye to each other.

When Gu Ning and Zhou Zhenghong were gone, Yan Zhenglin looked extremely displeased. “Lao Li, go and investigate what just happened. I want to know who was behind it.”

“Yes, sir,” Lao Li, the middle-aged man who stood by Yan Zhenglin in a suit, answered with respect. He was the director of the Public Security Bureau in City G, Li Feng.

Li Feng was Yan Zhenglin’s fellow. If Yan Zhenglin was in danger, he wouldn’t be safe either.

They didn’t know who was behind it yet, but they both knew clearly what was going on. It was right at the key point of the shift of officials, and no one had goods on Yan Zhenglin. It had to be his rivals in the politics.

Otherwise, it could also be Yan Zhenglin’s enemies, those who had been removed by Yan Zhenglin from their offices because of their serious illegal deeds.

Yan Zhenglin then made arrangement for those elderly men to leave before he went back to the government.

In a restaurant near the window on the second floor, Situ Ye and Chu Xuanfeng had witnessed everything. They were all astonished by Gu Ning’s swift move.

They knew that she was somebody, but they had no idea she was so awesome.

Chu Xuanfeng swallowed with great force, and said in fear, “Jesus, she’s so unbelievable! She could even discover the sniper, and saved the man within such a short time! I wouldn’t be able to do it myself.”

Chu Xuanfeng now admired Gu Ning. At the same time, he was so disappointed. “What should I do? I feel so ashamed now.”

Situ Ye remained silent, but he had to admit that Gu Ning was really excellent. All of a sudden, he had a strong interest in this girl. Who would win if they were in a game?

Gu Ning?

He would go and investigate this girl later.

Meanwhile, Zhou Zhenghong was driving to the processing plant together with Gu Ning. She needed to visit the processing plant before she went back to City F.

On the way, Gu Ning asked Zhou Zhenghong, “Uncle Zhou, do you know Master Bai’s background?”

“Master Bai is named Bai Ruxuan. He is the third richest man in City G with thirty billion yuan in assets. He is involved in many industries, but is mainly involved in tobacco and medicine. Those two are the major industries in City G,” Zhou Zhenghong said.

Hearing that, Gu Ning was greatly surprised. She didn’t know that Master Bai was so powerful.

If Master Bai was going to attend her opening ceremony, it would cause a sensation. She didn’t need to promote at all. Master Bai would be her live advertisement.

Never the less, she would of course advertise. Zhou Zhenghong would deal with it.

In the processing plant, Chang Qingshan and others were already in the middle of making jewelry. They used machines to process medium-high-level jade, while processing high-level jade by hand. The types of jewelry were all up to them. Gu Ning wouldn’t interfere.

When it was almost 3 pm, Zhou Zhenghong drove Gu Ning to the airport. Her plane would take off at 4:30 pm.

She arrived at the airport at 3:40 pm and it was 4 pm when she got into the lounge. Gu Ning randomly sat down. It was more than 10 minutes away from the departure time.

The minute she sat down, a surprised male voice sounded nearby, “It is you!” Hearing that, Gu Ning looked to him. He was a handsome young man, but she didn’t know him.

Seeing Gu Ning being puzzled, the man immediately explained, “Nice to meet you. My name’s Chu Xuanfeng. You probably don’t know me, but I know you. I saw you today at the Huangdeng Hotel.”

Yes, the man was exactly Chu Xuanfeng.

To Chu Xuanfeng’s surprise, he met Gu Ning in the airport. He had to go and talk to her. Was she heading to City F as well?

“Nice to meet you,” Gu Ning replied friendly.

Noticing that the man was very excited, Gu Ning knew that he must have seen her rescue the mayor.

“Are you going to City F?” Chu Xuanfeng asked.

“Yes,” Gu Ning answered.
