Chapter 1865 - Gu Ning Is too Proud?

“You...” Wei Chuanxun was mad and unwilling to accept it, because he thought that Gu Ning was too proud. However, he couldn’t utter a word facing Gu Ning’s cold look. Although he disliked Gu Ning’s pride, he had to admit that she had an air of power.

“Gu Ning, I’m sorry, I really hope that you won’t take it seriously.” Rong Zechen apologized to Gu Ning again.

“Zechen, you...” Wei Chuanxun felt quite uncomfortable seeing Rong Zechen apologize to Gu Ning for him. He felt that Rong Zechen shouldn’t apologize to Gu Ning given his social status.

In fact, if he hadn’t said that to Gu Ning, Rong Zechen wouldn’t have apologized to Gu Ning twice, so he felt a little guilty.

The more he felt guilty about what he made Rong Zechen do, the more he hated Gu Ning.

“Senior Rong, you don’t need to apologize to me. It’s not your fault. Alright, we’ve finished eating, so we should go now,” said Gu Ning, giving Song Miaoge and Baili Zongxue a glance telling them to leave, then she stood up.

Neither Song Miaoge and Baili Zongxue finished their meal, but it was almost done. Since Gu Ning stood up, they naturally had to leave with her.

They disliked Wei Chuanxun as well and lost their appetite after being affected by him.

After that, they walked away together.

“Zechen, Gu Ning is too proud.” Once Gu Ning and her friends left, Wei Chuanxun complained with dissatisfaction. He knew that Rong Zechen had a good impression of Gu Ning, so he believed that Gu Ning should feel honored.

“Alright, I’m not familiar with Gu Ning after all. It’s very normal that she’s cool to me. You shouldn’t have said that to her, she might think that I’m too proud of my family background now,” said Rong Zechen, feeling displeased.

He didn’t think Gu Ning’s attitude was wrong. Instead, he believed that she was a special girl because of her attitude. Actually, he disliked those girls who kept trying to please him.

Since Rong Zechen said that, Wei Chuanxun realized that he had made a mistake, but it was too late for him to retract his words.

Yuan Shuyan focused on them, but couldn’t hear their conversation. However, she was jealous of Gu Ning after witnessing Rong Zechen talking with her for so long.

After Gu Ning and her friends left, Song Miaoge also complained. “That boy is so unkind! Your attitude towards Rong Zechen has nothing to do with him. He shouldn’t have said that to you.”

“Right, although Rong Zechen is quite popular among the girls in our school, not every girl is his admirer,” said Song Miaoge. She could see that Rong Zechen had a very good impression of Gu Ning and that Gu Ning didn’t want to see Rong Zechen at all.

“Gu Ning already has a boyfriend, so she won’t pay special attention to other boys no matter how handsome they are,” said Song Miaoge.

“Right, although I haven’t seen Gu Ning’s boyfriend yet, I believe that he must be very outstanding,” said Baili Zongxue.

They both knew that Gu Ning’s boyfriend was a soldier. Even though they didn’t think that a 25-year-old soldier could hold a high position, he should be very outstanding, with a good family background. Otherwise, he didn’t deserve Gu Ning.

Hearing Song Miaoge and Baili Zongxue complimenting Leng Shaoting, Gu Ning smiled.

All of a sudden, Song Miaoge asked Gu Ning, “Gu Ning, why don’t you show us your boyfriend’s photos?”

“Right! Don’t worry, we won’t have any bad ideas,” said Baili Zongxue. She was also curious to see Gu Ning’s boyfriend’s appearance.

Gu Ning didn’t mind showing them Leng Shaoting’s photos nor was she worried that they would have any bad idea to steal him away from her. She knew it was useless. Besides, even if they did have the idea to steal her boyfriend, she wouldn’t be friends with them any longer.

Right when Gu Ning was about to say something, she heard Leng Shaoxi’s voice from her back. “Gu Ning!”

Gu Ning stopped and turned around.

Leng Shaoxi and a girl walked to her.

“Hi, Shaoxi,” called Gu Ning.

“Hi, Senior Leng,” said Song Miaoge and Baili Zongxue.

“Nice to see you,” said Leng Shaoxi, then she looked at Gu Ning. “Gu Ning, are you familiar with Rong Zechen?”

She wasn’t questioning her, and was simply asking her a question. At the same time, there was slight worry in Leng Shaoxi’s eyes. She was afraid that Gu Ning didn’t know that Rong Zechen was a member of the Rong family and had a close relationship with him.

She also saw Gu Ning talking with Rong Zechen just now, so she wanted to ask Gu Ning about that.

They could spend time with each other, but only as schoolmates. It would have a bad effect if they were too close.

“We’re not familiar. Relax, I know he’s a member of the Rong family. I won’t be close to him.” Gu Ning obviously knew Leng Shaoxi’s worries, so she comforted her.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoxi felt more relaxed. “Glad to know that! Oh, are you free this weekend? Why don’t you and Aunt Yunyao go back home to see grandpa? He always talks about you.”

Hearing that, Song Miaoge was shocked. It seemed that Gu Ning didn’t just know Leng Shaoxi, but she knew the Leng family too. Was it possible that Gu Ning was the Leng family’s relative?

“I will if I have time,” said Gu Ning.

“Great, then I won’t waste any more of your time. Oh, if anyone dares to bully you, don’t hesitate to pay them back. You have grandpa’s support,” said Leng Shaoxi. Because of what Yuan Shuyan and Qu Hanjiao had done to Gu Ning, Leng Shaoxi was worried that Gu Ning might be at disadvantage as to their family background. Therefore, she reminded Gu Ning that she had the Leng family’s support.

“I know,” said Gu Ning, feeling warm.

After that, Leng Shaoxi left with her friends.

Once Leng Shaoxi was gone, Song Miaoge asked in great surprise, “Gu Ning, a-are you a relative of the Leng family?”

“I’m not,” Gu Ning said.

“Then what’s your relationship with it?” asked Song Miaoge. She refused to believe that Gu Ning had no relationship with the Leng family.

“You can’t tell anyone if I tell you,” said Gu Ning. Since they asked about that, she shouldn’t keep it secret any longer. Most importantly, the Song family was in the Leng family’s faction, while Baili Zongxue wasn’t a mortal, so it wouldn’t be a big deal if they learned that.

“Of course, we won’t tell anyone.” Song Miaoge and Baili Zongxue promised at the same time.

Although Baili Zongxue hadn’t heard of the Leng family, she would keep it secret since Gu Ning told them not to tell anyone else.

Even if Baili Zongxue knew the Leng family, she wouldn’t be as surprised as mortals.

No matter how powerful a family was in the mortals’ world, it was barely comparable to the cultivation world.

“You must know Leng Shaoting, right?” Gu Ning asked Song Miaoge.

“Of course, he’s the youngest major general in history and has great achievements!” said Song Miaoge.
