Chapter 2194: Something Isn’t Right
She didn’t care whether they could stay alive or not after leaving her country.
Before long, Kuraki Akemi and Kato Toya completely lost their voices and senses. They sat still as if they were frozen.
Some customers who sat near them were also slightly affected by the cold magical power, but it wasn’t a big problem. They only stiffened a little and soon recovered. Therefore, they didn’t pay much attention to it.
They only discussed whether the air conditioning began to blow cold wind.
After freezing Kuraki Akemi and Kato Toya, Gu Ning reported what had happened to a waiter who reported it to their manager at once.
The manager didn’t know what else he could do and could only wait for the ambulance to come.
An ambulance soon came and took Kuraki Akemi as well as Kato Toya to the hospital. The dishes Gu Ning ordered were being delivered now, so she decided to enjoy her meal.
After dealing with Kuraki Akemi and Kato Toya, Gu Ning was in a good mood, so she sent a message to Leng Shaoting and told him what she had done. She didn’t directly call him in case she interrupted him.
She was right. Leng Shaoting was busy with his work now, so he didn’t immediately reply to Gu Ning.
It only took about a dozen minutes, and it would take about twenty minutes for Gu Ning’s order to be finished. Therefore, after Kuraki Akemi and Kato Toya were taken away, the dishes Gu Ning ordered were placed on the table.
However, right when Gu Ning began to eat, she felt a cultivator quickly come over. Gu Ning was surprised, but soon composed herself and continued to eat.
Gu Ning understood that the cultivator must have come for the magical power she just released. However, even if the cultivator came, she wouldn’t be exposed because she was just a mortal in cultivators’ eyes.
Before long, the cultivator appeared in the restaurant. Gu Ning calmly gave the cultivator a glance and found it was a familiar face, Dongfang Jinghong.
Although Dongfang Jinghong felt the magical power was already gone when he approached the restaurant, he was reluctant to leave right now. He wanted to see what had happened here and tried to find some clues.
Dongfang Jinghong wanted to figure it out, because the magical power was an evil magical power. He thought it might be an evil cultivator, or ghosts or monsters.
When Dongfang Jinghong walked into the restaurant, he saw nothing was wrong and found no clue, but he noticed Gu Ning instead.
Subconsciously, Dongfang Jinghong felt the evil magical power might have something to do with Gu Ning. Gu Ning was a mortal, but she indeed had something to do with magical power in her hands. However, it was just a guess and he didn’t think it was the truth.
Dongfang Jinghong hadn’t met Gu Ning before, but now he felt he could have a talk with her.
“Hi, Miss Gu.” Dongfang Jinghong politely greeted her.
“May I know you?” Gu Ning raised her eyes to look at him and pretended that she didn’t know him.
“My surname is Dongfang. I’ve got a jewelry business as well, so I know you’re the owner of Jade Beauty Jewelry. I also know you have many other companies. I’ve always admired you and I didn’t expect to see you here.” Dongfang Jinghong said, “Miss Gu, can I have a seat?”
Dongfang Jinghong was very kind, he was much nicer to her than Jing Yunfei.
“Please.” Gu Ning didn’t refuse. Although she knew his purpose, she also wanted to seize this chance to stop Dongfang Jinghong from spying on her. It wasn’t difficult for her to avoid them, but she felt uncomfortable when someone was secretly watching her.
Hearing that, Dongfang Jinghong sat down.
“Have you eaten, Mr. Dongfang?” Gu Ning asked politely.
“Yes,” said Dongfang Jinghong.
“If so, then I’ll eat alone,” said Gu Ning, then she began to enjoy her meal.
“Oh, Miss Gu, did anything happen here just now?” Dongfang Jinghong asked casually.
“Yeah, a man and a woman sat at the opposite table from me, but they suddenly couldn’t move. They asked me to call an ambulance for them. They were just taken away by doctors,” Gu Ning said. It was very easy for other people to find out what had happened here just now, so she didn’t need to lie.
When she said that, she didn’t have any guilty conscience. Instead, she looked confused and it seemed she also wanted to know what exactly had happened.
“They suddenly couldn’t move? What happened to them?” Dongfang Jinghong frowned. Were they affected by the evil magical power?
“I have no idea. I was curious too, so I asked them about it. They could barely say a word, so I didn’t get an answer,” said Gu Ning resignedly.
“What else did you feel isn’t right?” Dongfang Jinghong asked.
“Something isn’t right? I don’t think so. If there is anything it might be that I felt very cold all of a sudden for a few minutes at that time. My body stiffened a little. I thought it was a problem with the air conditioning, but other people asked a waiter about it. The air conditioning was working properly, so I don’t know what’s the reason. Perhaps it’s something that isn’t right,” said Gu Ning.
It was easy to find it out and she was very close to Kuraki Akemi and Kato Toya. If she felt nothing when they had trouble, it wouldn’t be right.
Hearing that, Dongfang Jinghong understood that they must have been affected by magical power, but whether it had something to do with Gu Ning…
He wasn’t very suspicious of Gu Ning, but couldn’t trust her. In addition, who were the two people?
He couldn’t ask Gu Ning about it because he didn’t think Gu Ning knew it.
After that, Dongfang Jinghong tried to talk about Colaine with Gu Ning and Gu Ning made it very clear that Colaine wouldn’t have cooperation with other people.
After that, she said the same words that she had used to threaten Jing Yunfei to Dongfang Jinghong and he was indeed scared.
Although Dongfang Jinghong had a good attitude, it didn’t change his purpose, so Gu Ning didn’t bother to care about his pride. Compared with Hong Yifeng and Jing Yunfei, he had a much better attitude and didn’t use coercion and bribery.
After being threatened by Gu Ning, Dongfang Jinghong left. Gu Ning also left once she finished her meal.
She didn’t go back to school, and instead went to the flower center to see Jing Yunyao and the others. She also told them that Baili Zongxue would come this weekend.
Pavilion of Magic had hired a staff member yesterday. It was a woman about forty, whose surname was Lin.
