Although she asked Xu Jinchen, she paid special attention to Gu Anna. It was obvious that she purposely asked that question to observe Gu Anna’s reaction.

Upon hearing her question, Gu Anna was nervous. She didn’t show it on her face, but Leng Shaoxi still saw it and felt satisfied.

Didn’t Gu Anna say she loved freedom? Why did she get nervous once she heard that Song Haoyu was with a woman?

Although Gu Anna and Song Haoyu were just friends right now, Leng Shaoxi could see that there was chemistry between them.

Therefore, Leng Shaoxi deliberately brought him up.

Gu Anna was indeed interested in Song Haoyu, but it wasn’t love. After all, they didn’t spend much time together.

And because Gu Anna was interested in Song Haoyu, she was upset when she heard that Leng Shaoxi coincidentally ran into Song Haoyu with a woman.

Who was the woman?

Gu Anna was curious, but hesitated to ask.

In addition, she didn’t know what her position was to ask.

Therefore, even though Gu Anna was upset, she still composed herself.

“Yeah, he went back the day before yesterday,” said Xu Jinchen. Then an idea dawned on him. “Why did you ask about him? Are you interested in him?” He asked Leng Shaoxi suddenly.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoxi denied it right away. “No way! I’m not interested in him. I just thought of it. I’m just asking.”

Leng Shaoxi denied it at once because she didn’t want Gu Anna to misunderstand her and Song Haoyu. She had no interest in Song Haoyu at all!

Gu Anna believed it. If Leng Shaoxi was interested in Song Haoyu, she could have taken action long ago. After all, they grew up together.

She hadn’t understood why Leng Shaoxi suddenly mentioned Song Haoyu until that moment. Leng Shaoxi was teasing her, just because she said she loved freedom!

It seemed that Leng Shaoxi had noticed her interest in Song Haoyu.

Gu Anna didn’t care if other people knew about her interest in Song Haoyu, but she wasn’t sure whether she really had feelings towards Song Haoyu. If she was sure of it, she wouldn’t hesitate to chase him.

“I’m just kidding. Why did you deny it so quickly? It seems you panicked a little.” Xu Jinchen joked. He was aware that Leng Shaoxi had no interest in Song Haoyu. After all, it was easy to see whether someone was in love.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoxi got annoyed. “I do not have interest in him!”

Xu Jinchen quickly stopped joking with her.

…

Before 10 pm, everyone left.

Tang Haifeng and Tang Yunfan stayed in the Leng family’s house because Master Leng insisted, so Gu Ning and the others also stayed the night.

After Tang Haifeng and Tang Yunfan were taken to their rooms, Leng Shaoting walked into the study with Master Leng and told him about what had happened.

Although Master Leng had been retired for years and had no power to be involved in politics, he needed to know if something serious happened.

Master Leng had retired for years, but Wei Lingfeng would still turn to Master Leng for help if he needed any. After all, Master Leng used to be the president and had more experience than Wei Lingfeng.

Once Master Leng heard about what had happened, he was furious.

Being in this position one must be ready for assassinations, but it didn’t mean it was acceptable.

If the mastermind was a local citizen, Master Leng might not be so mad, but it was ninjas from Country R!

Ninjas weren’t easy to deal with, so Wei Lengfeng could have been killed if Gu Ning hadn’t noticed them.

Because of Gu Ning’s help, Wei Lingfeng survived this time, but what should they do if Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting weren’t present?

Master Leng was very worried.

Leng Shaoting understood Master Leng’s worries and was also anxious. Although he was more than willing to protect Wei Lingfeng, he couldn’t be with him all the time.

He needed to deal with his own business.

Luckily, Wei Lingfeng had gotten some power crystals from Gu Ning, so he could treat himself if he was injured.

Leng Shaoting told Master Leng about that, so Master Leng felt slightly better.

Nobody else heard that Wei Lingfeng had encountered an assassination. If outsiders knew, the news would certainly go abroad.

…

The next morning, Tang Haifeng and Tang Yunfan had to go back to City B, so Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting drove them to the airport.

Separation was always sad. Although Tang Haifeng and Tang Yunfan were aware that Gu Ning was mature and stable and could take good care of herself, they still reminded her to be careful.

Gu Ning listened to them.

They were her family, so she wouldn’t be impatient. She was very happy that they cared about her.

After sending Tang Haifeng and Tang Yunfan away, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting returned to the Leng family’s house.

Zhan Daosong hadn’t left yet, because he rarely visited the capital so he decided to stay for a few more days.

Last night, Zhan Zhiyin and Zhan Daosong went to stay in a hotel, so Master Leng asked Leng Shaoming to pick them up this morning.

At noon, Leng Shaoxun proposed a camping trip in the afternoon because the day was nice.

Leng Shaoting said nothing, so Master Leng said. “Shaoxun is right. You’re too busy normally. Now that you finally have time to gather together, go out to have some fun!”

Since Master Leng agreed, Leng Shaoting accepted his advice, and so did the others.

“Shaoting, can you call Jinchen and ask him whether he can join us? It’ll be more fun if more of us can gather together,” said Leng Shaoxun. Although there were already many of them, it would be more enjoyable if more people could join them.

“Of course.” Leng Shaoting nodded.

After having the meal, Leng Shaoting called Xu Jinchen and let him know that they were going to camp, and that if he had time, he could join them.

Upon hearing that, Xu Jinchen agreed. He also wanted to have fun outside with Zi Beiying.

It would be romantic if they could have some private time, but it would be more fun to join an activity with their friends. Romance wasn’t everything in life, they also needed friends.
