Chapter 739 What’s Your Relationship with Qi Tianlin
Gu Ning would be free on March 28th, but she wasn’t sure whether something would come up then, so she said, “I’m very interested in the deal, but I can’t give you a promise right now, because I’m not certain that I’ll be free that day, but I’ll meet you that day as long as I’m free.”
Hearing that, He Siyin was a little disappointed.
Anyway, it was still very likely that Gu Ning would show up and help her, which was the best result she could get today.
“Sure, it’s all up to you, but I do hope that you can show up that day, Miss Gu,” He Siyin said. Saying that, she took out her name card and gave it to Gu Ning. “Miss Gu, this is my name card. Please contact me no matter whether you can come or not so that I can make the arrangements properly.”
If Gu Ning was going to HK, she would be the most important guest of the He family, and He Siyin would obviously treat her with the best manners.
“No problem.” Gu Ning exchanged name cards with He Siyin.
“Oh, Miss Gu, please keep it a secret between you and me, and never tell another person, because I’m afraid that it won’t do you any good if others finds out, including Zuo Jiangkui. To be honest with you, I don’t trust him very much. If he contacts you, please decline his offers no matter what he wants to do,” He Siyin said with a serious face. She said that for the sake of Gu Ning’s safety as well as the He family’s future.
Although Zuo Jiangkui won pure trust from her father, and had never hurt the He family, He Siyin had run into Zuo Jiangkui dining with Hong Yuefei at the same table, so she had to be cautious. She wasn’t sure whether Zuo Jiangkui would be as loyal to her father as usual. It wasn’t an uncommon thing for a man to be betrayed by a close friend.
“Sure,” Gu Ning said, and she was satisfied that He Siyin cared about her safety.
In fact, Gu Ning didn’t have a good first impression of Zuo Jiangkui either. She always had the feeling that this man was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Of course, it wasn’t right to judge a person by his appearance, but Gu Ning preferred to keep a distance from people she disliked.
As for He Siyin, Gu Ning sensed her goodwill, and it was also a good opportunity for Gu Ning to expand her network and make a lot of money, so Gu Ning was willing to cooperate with her.
Gu Ning had been to HK many times, and heard He Hongjie’s name countless times too. He Hongjie had a good reputation, and many people respected him.
Although the Tiandihui was involved in this mess, Gu Ning wasn’t afraid that she would be in danger, because she was confident to handle them. In addition, she didn’t live or work in HK, so it would be difficult for the Tiandihui to hurt her.
After hesitating for a while longer, He Siyin asked Gu Ning another question. “Miss Gu, may I ask you something?”
“Sure,” Gu Ning said.
“What’s your relationship with Qi Tianlin?” He Siyin asked, feeling nervous.
Gu Ning understood that He Siyin’s hatreds towards her was because of Qi Tianlin, but He Siyin’s attitude towards her had completely changed now.
“We’re just common friends,” Gu Ning said.
Since Gu Ning said so, He Siyin believed it. Even though this was the first time she had ever met Gu Ning, she had the feeling that Gu Ning was a down-to-earth girl. She believed that Gu Ning wouldn’t lie to her.
“Oh, I think that you must be younger than 20, right?” He Siyin asked all of a sudden.
“I’m 18, a senior student in high school,” Gu Ning said.
Although He Siyin knew that Gu Ning was very young, she was still surprised to know that Gu Ning was just an 18-year-old student.
Gu Ning wasn’t only unusually excellent at gambling, but was also very mature and stable. She didn’t seem like an 18-year-old girl, but a woman around 30.
They didn’t stay together for too long, and He Siyin left with Zuo Jiangkui.
On their way to the hotel, Zuo Jiangkui asked He Siyin, “Siyin, how’s your deal with Miss Gu?”
“She didn’t agree,” He Siyin said with a sad face.
Hearing that, Zuo Jiangkui avoided her eyes and asked, “Why?”
“I used fame and fortune to tempt her at the beginning, but she wasn’t interested. I also proposed to cooperate with her, but she said she needed to study and that the National College Entrance Examination is around the corner,” He Siyin said.
Zuo Jiangkui frowned. To his surprise, Gu Ning was able to resist the temptation.
“Do you have her phone number? I can have a talk with her,” Zuo Jiangkui said.
“I asked her for it, but she didn’t tell me,” He Siyin replied.
Zuo Jiangkui didn’t know that He Siyin was suspicious of him, so he believed it.
“Well, I think I can ask Mr. Qi for it,” Zuo Jiangkui said.
Qi Tianlin also had a certain amount of shares in the He family’s casino, so he thought that Qi Tianlin might be willing to help him arrange a meeting with Gu Ning.
He Siyin just remained silent.
At the same time, Qi Tianlin called Gu Ning.
“Did He Siyin cause you any trouble?” Qi Tianlin asked.
“Do you think she has the ability to do that?” Gu Ning said with disdain.
“You’re right. She can’t do that.” Qi Tianlin understood that Gu Ning could handle everything well.
Yang Ziqian didn’t go back home until he drove Yu Zi home. When he got back, Mrs. Yang was surprised. “Why are you home so early?”
Normally, he would be back home after 10 pm, after dining, watching a film with Yu Zi and driving her home, but it was just 9:30 pm now.
“Something bad happened today,” Yang Ziqian said.
