Gu Ning arrived at the Phoenix Mountain earlier than Jing Yunfei. Because Jing Yunfei didnt know the exact position of the wooden room, it took him some time to find it. However, Gu Ning knew where it was and quickly found it. Once she found it, Gu Ning disguised herself as Qing He.

Jing Yunyao arrived at the Phoenix Mountain later than Jing Yunfei, but she reached the wooden room before him. Because Gu Ning told her the exact position, Jing Yunyao went straight there once she came.

After Jing Yunyao came, she saw Gu Ning. Gu Ning had fun with her and greeted her with the appearance and voice after she disguised herself. She asked Jing Yunyao why she came here.

Although Gu Ning had a strange appearance and voice now, Jing Yunyao still recognized her in an instant.

Gu Ning also prepared a baseball cap and a mask for Jing Yunyao and told her to put them on.

Because it was night, Gu Ning placed a table lamp to light the wooden room. It wasnt bright, but it was much better than candles.

Before Jing Yunfei came, Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao talked about how to teach him a lesson.

After a few minutes, Jing Yunfei arrived.

When Jing Yunfei was about twenty meters away from the wooden room, both Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao sensed his air of cultivation. At the same time, Jing Yunfei also felt the air of cultivators from Gu Ning, because his level was much lower than Jing Yunyaos.

Once Jing Yunfei sensed the air of cultivators, he knew that Gu Ning didnt fool him. However, when he was only five meters away from the wooden room, Jing Yunfei felt the air of cultivation from another person, but it wasnt strong. Obviously the second person was at a higher level than him.

Whos out there? Once Jing Yunfei was near, Jing Yunyao opened her mouth and asked him. She deliberately lowered her voice so that Jing Yunfei couldnt recognize her voice.

Im Jing Yunfei from the cultivation world, said Jing Yunfei respectfully, because the person was at a higher level than him. He had to be polite.

In addition, he came to ask the person for something, so he had to be respectful.

Hearing Jing Yunfeis voice, Jing Yunyao looked angrier as the hatred grew stronger in her heart. She couldnt wait to rush outside and punch him.

Her mood swung when she heard his voice and faced him in reality.

Why did you come here? Jing Yunyao asked in a voice of authority.

Senior master, a girl named Gu Ning told me you have a special magical pill, so I came for it. Ill pay for it of course. I wont take it for free, said Jing Yunfei.

Jing Yunfei asked for magical pills because he believed the master was an ancient pharmacist and she must have many more precious pills than just power crystals. That was the reason why Jing Yunfei ached to know who gave Gu Ning the medicine.

Other cultivators had the same idea.

It was hard to find an ancient pharmacist nowadays, so it was very hard to get magical pills.

Oh, you want my magical pills, but I wont give them to other people easily. I dont need money, said Jing Yunyao.

Then what do you want? Jing Yunfei asked.

I prefer blood and flesh. As long as you cut a finger of yours, Ill give you a bone magical pill. If you cut two, Ill give you an energy-accumulating magical pill. If you cut three, you can have an energy-gathering magical pill, said Jing Yunyao.

Upon hearing that, Jing Yunfei was mad. To his astonishment, this master had such a creepy hobby and asked for peoples fingers. However, it didnt sound to be a bad deal, although it wasnt a good one.

Senior master, may I know why you want fingers? Jing Yunfei asked, showing slight anger. He didnt want to offend the master, so he curbed most of his anger.

I like them, said Jing Yunyao.

Do we have to make a deal on that condition? Jing Yunfei was reluctant to do that, but he wanted the magical pills more.

Without three fingers, he wouldnt be a complete man and no one liked incomplete men. It would be inconvenient for him to live and work afterwards.

Yes, because I just like peoples fingers, said Jing Yunyao.

Her fingers had almost been disabled by them. They had heavily stepped on her hand back then and she was going to faint from the pain. If Jing Jining hadnt shown up at the key moment and saved her, she could have lost her fingers.

Although her fingers hadnt been broken, they had been seriously injured. It took her a long time to make a full recovery.

Once Jing Yunyao remembered how they had cruelly bullied her, she couldnt stay calm. She would never forgive them and she was determined to pay them back. Therefore, she wanted to start with their fingers.

You… Jing Yunfei suddenly didnt know what to say. He was unwilling to cut his fingers, but was reluctant to leave with nothing.

Jing Yunfei also doubted whether the master was fooling him, but he didnt think it was necessary. There was no grudge between them after all. Why would the master deceive him? Therefore, Jing Yunfei didnt take his doubts seriously. He thought that the master must have encountered something and became so strangely stubborn now.

And there is another choice, said Jing Yunyao. She understood it wasnt easy for Jing Yunfei to cut his fingers, so she decided to do it on her own.

What is it? Jing Yunfeis face lit up at once, and he asked in a hurry.

Although he knew it wouldnt be a better choice, he was willing to try it as long as he didnt have to injure himself.

Have a fight with me. As long as you can take ten of my attacks, Ill give you an energy-gathering magical pill, said Jing Yunyao.

No problem. Jing Yunfei agreed without hesitation. Although she seemed to be at a higher level than him, he wanted to have a try. Nothing good came without risk, and it was unknown whether he could take ten of her attacks.

After Jing Yunfei agreed, Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao walked out.

Because Gu Ning was unwilling to show her face, she also put on a baseball cap and a mask although she had the appearance of Qing He now.

Jing Yunyao was going to injure Jing Yunfei. So if Jing Yunfei found out she was involved in it, Shangguan Yang might be affected.

Huang Haihao didnt receive any calls to pay him to frame Song Wenxuan again. Perhaps the person gave up after what had happened recently, or the mastermind might be Zhou Litao. Because Huang Haihao turned him down, they turned to other people.

…

Gu Ning went to the airport at 1 pm, so she didnt say good-bye to the Song family. She only called Song Wenxuan and Leng Yuanjin and told them that she was leaving.

They knew Gu Ning needed to deal with her business, and the assassination of Song Wenxuan had already taken a lot of Gu Nings time, so they didnt keep her. They were very grateful to Gu Ning for her help, and repeatedly thanked her.

When Gu Ning got back to the capital, it was about 5:30 pm so she called Jing Yunyao, asking where she was. Once she heard Jing Yunyao was in the Pavilion of Magic, she said she would go to meet them and they could have a meal together.

She had a better appetite when she had a meal with more people.

However, when Gu Ning almost reached the Pavilion of Magic, she received a call from Jing Yunyao who told her there was a cultivator coming. She and Miao Jingjing had to leave first.

Gu Ning was only a few minutes away from the Flowers and Plants Trading Center, so she went to the Pavilion of Magic before meeting Jing Yunyao.

The cultivator who went to the Pavilion of Magic was Jing Yunfei. After Jing Yunfei arrived, he directly asked who the owner was.

Lin was told to say Gu Ning owned the Pavilion of Magic no matter who asked her that question, because all the cultivators had heard of Gu Ning, so they wouldnt think further if they were told the owner was Gu Ning.

Without surprise, when Jing Yunfei learned that this flower shop was owned by Gu Ning, he didnt bother to ask more questions, but he felt displeased upon thinking of Gu Ning.

Anyway, since this shop was owned by Gu Ning, there was no need for him to ask for more details.

Before Gu Ning came, Jing Yunfei walked out and they ran into each other on the road.

Oh, hi, Mr. Jing, what a coincidence! Gu Ning greeted Jing Yunfei of her own accord with a vague smile on her lips, but she actually had an evil idea.

She greeted Jing Yunfei not because she was polite, but because she wanted to scheme against him.

Seeing Gu Ning, Jing Yunfei looked unhappy, but he thought he should be nice when Gu Ning greeted him of her own accord. Hi, yeah, what a coincidence!

Mr. Jing, did you come for my flower shop? Gu Ning asked with a faint smile, but she actually already had the answer.

Since you know, why do you bother to ask me? said Jing Yunfei in annoyance. He felt Gu Ning was making fun of him.

Mr. Jing, what if I tell you Im willing to let you know who gave me that medicine? said Gu Ning.

What? Will you really let me know? Jing Yunfei was greatly surprised, because he didnt expect Gu Ning to say that. At the same time, he stayed doubtful. He wasnt sure whether Gu Ning was being honest.

Yes, because I cant stand your stalking and spying any longer. If you want that medicine, go ask the person for it by yourself, said Gu Ning, and showed impatience on purpose.

Who is that person? Jing Yunfei asked in a hurry. Whether Gu Ning was being honest or not, he wouldnt miss this chance. He wouldnt allow other people to get that medicine before him.

He lives in a wooden room at the east side of the Phoenix Mountain. Believe it or not, its up to you whether youll go there, said Gu Ning.

There was indeed a wooden room at the east side of the Phoenix Mountain, but no one was living inside. It was set up by a crew when they filmed there.

At the beginning, it attracted many visitors, but nobody went there again after people lost interest in it.

Gu Ning told Jing Yunfei to go there, but didnt plan to let him down. She only wanted to teach him a lesson.

It wasnt because Gu Ning was deliberately causing trouble, but because the Jing family was Jing Yunyaos enemies. As Jing Yunyaos future daughter-in-law, she should naturally side with her. Even if Jing Yunfei was innocent, she wouldnt miss any chances to punish him and vent her anger on him.

Jing Yunfei squinted at Gu Ning. He wanted to see whether she was telling the truth from her expression, but Gu Ning stayed calm.

Great, I hope it isnt a lie, or Ill pay you back. Jing Yunfei chose to trust Gu Ning for now, but he felt he should warn her. If Gu Ning really lied to him, he definitely wouldnt let her get away with it. Although cultivators usually couldnt hurt mortals, it didnt mean mortals could fool them.

Why should I lie to you? I dont see how I can get anything good from it. But I cant promise what youll find there. Dont blame me if you cant find anything, said Gu Ning.

I know. Whether I can find anything, Ill bear the result on my own, said Jing Yunfei. He admitted that he wasnt tolerant, but he wouldnt blame Gu Ning if he found nothing.

Great, then I should go now. Gu Ning didnt waste more time talking with Jing Yunfei, and just walked into the flower shop.

Jing Yunfei didnt want to waste more time on Gu Ning either, so he left as well. However, once Jing Yunfei walked away, Gu Ning turned around and followed him.

She wanted to make sure Jing Yunfei would really go there. If he went there, she would go there too, or she wouldnt have the chance to teach him a lesson.

Gu Ning followed Jing Yunfei along the way. Because she could use her Jade Eyes to see where Jing Yunfei was going, she didnt need to be close to him and wasnt afraid of being discovered.

Gu Ning couldnt focus on Jing Yunfei all the time, because cultivators had acute senses. If she stared at him for a longe time, he would surely feel it.

When Gu Ning made sure that Jing Yunfei was going to the Phoenix Mountain, she stopped following him and turned to drive quickly to the Phoenix Mountain.

At the same time, Gu Ning called Jing Yunyao and told her what she was going to do. She also asked Jing Yunyao whether she wanted to teach Jing Yunfei a lesson in person. Jing Yunyao could put on a baseball cap and a mask. No one could recognize her if she stayed quiet.

Anyway, she would play the role of a senior cultivator, it was very normal to be mysterious.

Right after Gu Ning asked Jing Yunyao about that, she suddenly felt it was very childish, but it was too late to take her words back and she waited for Jing Yunyaos reply.

Jing Yunyao remained silent for a few seconds, then said, Ill be there in a while.

Jing Yunyao didnt think it was childish to punish Jing Yunfei. Instead, she felt quite touched that Gu Ning was so considerate.

Deputy Governor Zhou treats me very well and I owe him a lot. I cant see him getting in trouble and do nothing. As for my mother, I know Im not a filial son, said the security guard.

Who ordered you to frame Deputy Governor Zhou? asked the interrogator.

I dont know. The person was wearing a baseball cap and a mask when he met me. I only know its a man about 1.8 m. He had the same build as me, said the security guard.

Why did he choose you? asked the interrogator.

About three days ago, I had a day off. I went to my hometown to visit my mother. As soon as I arrived, a man with a baseball cap and a mask stopped me. He told me his intention and I agreed to prevent my mother from being injured. The security guard said, And I put the illegal stuff into Deputy Governor Zhous study when everyone was asleep at midnight.

The security guard indeed had a break three days ago and he went to visit his mother in his hometown, but it was a lie that a man with a baseball cap and a mask stopped him.

There werent surveillance cameras along the road, so nobody would know he was lying.

Did you mean you secretly put the illegal stuff into Deputy Governor Zhous study when everyone was asleep last night? The interrogator asked to make sure of it.

Yes, said the security guard.

Deputy Governor Zhou told us he just took out something from the cabinet this morning. He didnt see the illegal stuff then, said the interrogator.

Hearing that, the security guard got nervous and suddenly didnt know what to say. Before long, he came back to his senses and said, Perhaps Deputy Governor Zhou didnt notice it.

Although he said that, he actually had no confidence. After all, it was a lie and he felt quite stressed.

Since you said you put it into the cabinet, tell me which cabinet you put them in? asked the interrogator.

It was dark. I didnt dare to turn on the lights, so I used the flashlight of my phone. I randomly opened a cabinet and put the illegal stuff inside, then quickly left. Im not sure which cabinet it was, said the security guard, but he was losing confidence. He didnt follow the police to do the search, so he had no idea which cabinet the illegal stuff was put in or whether the illegal stuff was put together.

Do you mean you quickly left after you put the illegal stuff in a random cabinet? asked the interrogator.

Hearing the interrogators question, the security guard grew more anxious. What should he say right now? Was the illegal stuff put together in the same cabinet? Or were they separated in different cabinets?

What? You cant remember that? The interrogator actually already had the answer when he hesitated to reply to the question. The security guard didnt know whether the illegal stuff was put together or was separated.

The security guard bit his teeth and decided to gamble on it. Yeah, I put them together in a random cabinet.

Even if he said he put them separately, he still didnt know where they were separately put.

Are you sure? asked the interrogator.

The security guard was nervous and had a premonition, because he had no idea whether the illegal stuff was put together or separated.

Seeing him in silence, the interrogator stopped asking him more questions. Alright, there are too many loopholes in your answers. You didnt put the illegal stuff in his study. You didnt even make up a good account. How could you make yourself a qualified scapegoat?

It was obvious that this security guard was made a scapegoat for Zhou Litao, but he failed because he was ill-prepared. Therefore, the security guard was also detained because of the crime of shielding.

The next morning, the news that Zhou Litao was caught because he had kept jewelry, gold bars, two guns and two kilograms of drugs in his own house went abroad.

Most people chose to believe it, because they thought most officials were corrupt. Even if Zhou Litao wasnt, the police had found the illegal stuff in his house, so there was solid proof to prove he was guilty.

Only a few senior officials remained doubtful and they thought Zhou Litao might have been framed. Although there wasnt evidence, it wasnt easy to collect evidence.

It was just a guess, but they were all experienced and sophisticated officials, so they believed it was highly likely.

Anyway, without the evidence, none of them dared to support Zhou Litao publicly, or they might be dragged into trouble too.

…

Gu Ning left the rest to Song Wenxuan to handle, and she felt comfortable to leave. In about three days, she had to go to City Ao so now she was supposed to go back to the capital.

Even if she didnt know whether Leng Shaoting was done with his work and whether he could go to City Ao with her, she had to go there with or without him. If Leng Shaoting could come back, he should be back in two days.

Although Gu Ning was about to leave, the case wasnt settled yet, so she told Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to stay and protect Song Wenxuan.

No, I dont have these things. I never keep illegal stuff in my house! Zhou Litao kept on denying it.

How was it possible? How could these things appear in his study?

Im sorry, but we found these things in your study. Whether theyre yours or not, you need to go to the Public Security Bureau with us. Do you want to go on your own, or do you want to be dragged out by my people? Xiong Xingyi said. He didnt sound polite at all now.

No, I wont go. These things dont belong to me at all. Ive been framed. Yes, its a set up! Xiong Xingyi, did you reach an agreement with someone and frame me on purpose? Zhou Litao questioned. He was implying Song Wenxuan, because Xiong Xingyi was in the same faction as Song Wenxuan.

Right after Song Wenxuan encountered the attempted assassination, he got in trouble and Xiong Xingyi took people to visit his home in person. It must have something to do with Song Wenxuan!

It seemed that they still believed that he was involved in the attempted assassination of Song Wenxuan, but they lacked solid proof, so they framed him.

Frame you? Why should I help anyone to frame you? Xiong Xingyi understood what Zhou Litao was implying, but he played dumb. He refused to admit that it was a set up and said it was just his duty.

You… Zhou Litao didnt know what to say, because he couldnt confess to the crime and tell them what he had done to Song Wenxuan, or he would fall into the trap set by them!

Ive been framed! I didnt have these things in my house. Zhou Litao argued. He believed he was innocent and felt quite aggrieved.

Dont worry. If youre really being framed, we promise well clear your name, but now you must go to the Public Security Bureau with us, said Xiong Xingyi. In fact, it was impossible for them to clear his name. If they really wanted to do that, they wouldnt have bothered to frame him.

No, I wont go. I wont. Its obviously a set up. Zhou Litao struggled. Since it was a set up, he wouldnt be able to come home again after leaving with them, unless he found evidence to prove that it was a set up. And he felt it would be hard to find the evidence, because Song Wenxuan was always meticulous.

However, no matter how Zhou Litao struggled, he was finally taken away by Xiong Xingyi and Gu Ning left too.

When Zhou Litao was taken away, other members of the Zhou family were full of anxiety, but didnt know what to do. Mrs. Zhou could only call Zhou Litaos friends for help.

After Zhou Litaos friends learned about what had happened, they were shocked as well.

Because they were on the same boat as Zhou Litao and had a good relationship with him, they believed that Zhou Litao wouldnt keep illegal stuff in his house. It had to be a set up.

Actually, although they didnt keep illegal stuff in their places, none of them were incorruptible, but no matter how corrupt they were, they wouldnt keep the bribes in the study, because they were afraid of being caught.

However, Xiong Xingyi searched Zhou Litaos house at this time and took him away. It had to be Song Wenxuans order. After all, Xiong Xingyi was in the same faction as Song Wenxuan.

If it was really Song Wenxuans order, did Song Wenxuan plan to remove Zhou Litao or was it because of Zhou Litaos involvement in the attempted assassination?

Although Zhou Litaos friends didnt know who ordered the attempted assassinate of Song Wenxuan, there were limited suspects and Zhou Litao was quite likely to be guilty. After all, it was not only Zhou Litao who wanted the promotion, their leaders also hoped Zhou Litao could be promoted. So if Zhou Litao wanted to have that position, he had to get rid of the stumbling block.

Anyway, it was just a guess. Most importantly, they had to help Zhou Litao out now.

Therefore, Zhou Litaos friends told Mrs. Zhou to check the surveillance videos around their house to see whether there were suspects. They would report to their leaders.

It was obviously a set up, because their leaders were aware that Zhou Litao had ordered Song Wenxuans assassination. They also believed it was revenge from Song Wenxuan.

However, even if they knew it, they needed evidence to prove it, so their leaders told them to collect evidence first, or it would be very difficult.

It wasnt a big problem to keep jewelry and gold in the house, but it was serious trouble to have guns and drugs.

Mrs. Zhou watched the surveillance videos around her house, but found no suspects.

It was a really serious problem now.

In that case, Zhou Litaos friends advised her to find a scapegoat, and the best scapegoat was the security guard. Only the security guards could walk around freely in the house, so it was convenient for them to set him up.

Knowing that, Mrs. Zhou immediately went to see the two security guards and made one of them the scapegoat.

Neither of them was willing to do that, so Mrs. Zhou used coercion and bribery. Finally, a security guard agreed.

However, the security guard didnt go to confess the crime right now. It needed more than just a few words to be the scapegoat. He would have to tell the whole process of the crime, so he had to figure out a reasonable account tonight.

After Zhou Litao was taken to the Public Security Bureau, he faced interrogation at once. He kept on denying that he had kept the illegal stuff in his house, and insisted on saying that it was a set up.

In fact, Zhou Litao clearly knew who did it and why the person did it, but he couldnt say it aloud. Or he would be found guilty of attempting to assassinate Song Wenxuan. It was impossible to get away with that crime.

Although it was a set up, they still needed to do the investigation, so Xiong Xingyi went to watch the surveillance videos around Zhou Litaos house to see whether there were suspects going in and coming out of it.

Without surprise, they found no evidence to prove it was a set up and Zhou Litao felt more hopeless. He then tried to make his security guards the scapegoat and said one of them must have been bribed and helped someone frame him.

Because he said that, Xiong Xingyi told his people to bring the two security guards over for the interrogation.

The security guard who was chosen to be the scapegoat was still making up his account, but the police met him before he could finish. Therefore it would be difficult, but no matter how difficult it was, he had to face it and went to the Public Security Bureau.

Because the security guard had thought about the account, he managed to answer the questions during the interrogation. However, he didnt carefully think about it, so there were a lot of loopholes.

Why did you frame Zhou Litao? asked the interrogator.

Someone threatened me with my mother. If I didnt obey the order, my mother would be injured, so I had to agree, said the security guard.

Then why are you admitting it now? Arent you afraid your mother will be injured? asked the interrogator.

If it was really done by Zhou Litao, he wouldnt be surprised at all because he was highly likely to be the mastermind among the suspects.

Although it could easily arouse suspicion that he attacked Song Wenxuan at this key moment because of his position in the government and his obvious motive, they didnt care much about it. As long as there was no evidence, they would be fine. They were willing to do anything for power, and they were confident that they would be safe.

However, it didnt just depend on them whether they would end up in trouble. Their luck and fate also played a role in this case.

Without delay, Xiong Xingyi did his job with his people. He went there in person, because Zhou Litao was a senior official after all, and common policemen might not be able to deal with him.

Although his status was much lower than Zhou Litaos, he had the power to do a search and Song Wenxuan supported him, so he wouldnt be weak.

Before they came, Gu Ning didnt leave. She needed to stay to see whether Zhou Litao would go to the study room during this time. If he found the illegal stuff, he might get rid of it before the police came. In that case, the police might find nothing after they came and Zhou Litao would be mad and alert. It would cause Song Wenxuan trouble.

In the meanwhile, Gu Ning told K to watch the surveillance cameras in case she was caught by them.

Luckily, she wasnt and Zhou Litao didnt go to the study before Xiong Xingyi and the others came, so the illegal stuff was still there.

When Xiong Xingyi suddenly visited his home, Zhou Litao was surprised. The first idea that appeared in Zhou Litaos mind was that the fact that he had paid the gunman to kill Song Wenxuan was exposed and Song Wenxuan sent Xiong Xingyi to arrest him. However, Zhou Litao didnt think it was possible. He refused to believe that he was betrayed so soon.

However, if that wasnt the reason, what could the reason be?

Zhou Litao didnt think he had other dirty secrets that would attract the polices attention. After all, he was very careful, and he had confidence in himself. Even if it was because of the attempted assassination of Song Wenxuan, he wouldnt admit it.

Xiong Xingyi, why did you suddenly show up at my place with so many people? Zhou Litao called his full name angrily, trying to put pressure on Xiong Xingyi.

In fact, Xiong Xingyi didnt have much confidence. He wasnt scared of Zhou Litao, but was afraid the illegal stuff Song Wenxuan told him about wasnt actually there.

He trusted Song Wenxuan, but was worried that Song Wenxuan might be deceived. After all, Song Wenxuan didnt see it himself, so it was risky.

Anyway, since he already came, he had to do his job. Mr. Zhou, I received a report that youve kept some jewelry, guns, and drugs from unknown sources, so we need to do a search. Please be cooperative.

What? Hearing that, Zhou Litao rounded his eyes in shock. He thought they came because they found out about his involvement in the attempted assassination of Song Wenxuan, but he was wrong.

However, he didnt keep all the illegal stuff at his home!

It is slander! Its impossible that Ive kept illegal stuff in my house. I know its illegal, said Zhou Litao angrily without a guilty conscience. He didnt panic now, because he didnt have illegal stuff. He must have been framed.

If so, Im sure you wont stop us from doing a search, right? Xiong Xingyi said, but he didnt have much confidence.

I dont have any illegal stuff in my house, but you cant search my home. If other people hear about it, my reputation will be damaged. Zhou Litao angrily retorted. Although he indeed didnt have any illegal stuff in his house, he wouldnt let the police in, or other people might think he was guilty.

Mr. Zhou, its our duty. This is the search warrant. Please let us finish our work. Why do you have to stop us? Do you feel guilty? If not, please let us in, or Ill report it to my leader, said Xiong Xingyi, appearing tough.

You… Zhou Litao was mad when he heard that.

Why did Xiong Xingyi think he was guilty just because he stopped them from going into his house? He didnt have any illegal stuff in his house.

Anyway, since Xiong Xingyi had a search warrant, he couldnt stop him or it would be an obstruction of official duties and he would be arrested for that afterwards. The police would still search his house in the end. freewebnvel.cm

He didnt think there was any illegal stuff in his house, so he finally gave in.

Fine, you can do a search, but if you cant find anything illegal, I promise you cant bear the result. Zhou Litao glared at Xiong Xingyi and threatened him.

He thought to himself that he must teach Xiong Xingyi a lesson after tonight, because Xiong Xingyi hurt his pride.

Xiong Xingyi didnt care about it and took his people into Zhou Litaos home at once.

Zhou Litao followed him at the side.

In order to prove they were just doing their work, a policeman took a camera with them when they did the search.

As soon as Xiong Xingyi went inside, he searched the study first, because illegal stuff was normally kept in the study.

Zhou Litao looked displeased, but he didnt have any worries because he was sure he was innocent.

Unexpectedly, someone framed him and succeeded. Therefore, when Xiong Xingyis people found a box with jewelry and gold bars in the cabinet, Zhou Litao was stunned while Xiong Xingyi was relieved. Xiong Xingyi was really afraid that they might fail.

No, its impossible. These arent mine! Once Zhou Litao came back to his senses, he denied it emotionally just to prove the jewelry and gold bars didnt belong to him.

We found them in your study. Do you think well believe that they are not yours? said Xiong Xingyi. He knew the jewelry and gold bars werent owned by Zhou Litao, and that someone had framed him. However, they found the jewelry and gold bars in Zhou Litaos study, and Zhou Litao couldnt deny it unless he found the person who put the stuff in his study.

Speaking of that, Xiong Xingyi was slightly worried.

No matter how worried he was or whether Zhou Litao could find the person who framed him, he needed to continue to search the study.

After a while, Xiong Xingyi and his people found two guns and two kilograms of drugs. Zhou Litao almost went crazy when he saw them. How could they have appeared in his study?

Updated from frewebnovl.om

Therefore, senior officials in the capital also heard the news and called Song Wenxuan to ask him about it.

As for the reason why Song Wenxuan was almost assassinated, none of them was dumb so they easily figured out the reason. People in the same faction as the Leng family asked whether he had found out who the gunman was, while other people in other factions didnt bother to ask about that.

Because of the attempted assassination of Song Wenxuan, leaders of the officials who had the motive called them and asked them whether they had done that.

They didnt forbid them to attack Song Wenxuan, and it was actually their leaders order at this moment, but they had to be careful and not expose their scheme.

If it was exposed and became serious, their leaders would choose to abandon them for the sake of their own safety.

After the Yuan family found out that it was done by their people, they told Zhou Litao to be cautious and not be dragged into the trouble. Even if he was found guilty, he could find himself a scapegoat.

After Gu Ning finished the meal with Qiao Ya, she received Ks reply, but he failed to get the goods on Zhou Litao.

He had only conducted an investigation through surveillance videos and their family members bank accounts. As long as they were very careful, there would be no useful information left. In that case, Gu Ning could only carry out her plan.

She needed to carefully think about it first, so Gu Ning disguised herself as Tang Aining after having the meal, then went to look around near Zhou Litaos home.

Zhou Litao lived in a high-end residential area, but his salary couldnt afford a house in it. However, his wife was a businesswoman and her family was rich, so it was reasonable that they had an expensive house. Therefore, even if Zhou Litao was a corrupt official, nobody could see that from his life on the surface.

Gu Ning sat on a chair in the forest path near Zhou Litaos home, then used her Jade Eyes to see the situation inside to see if there were any secret rooms or the like with hidden things that shouldnt be there.

If there were, Gu Ning wouldnt need to put anything illegal in his home. It could cause her loss after all. If there werent, she would put something illegal in his house.

After looking around with her Jade Eyes, she found a secret room, but there was nothing illegal inside.

It seemed that Zhou Litao was really an upright official, or he must be very skilled at hiding his illicit income.

Gu Ning didnt leap to conclusions that Zhou Litao must be a corrupt official just because he was serving the Yuan family and had tried to kill Song Wenxuan. However, even if she didnt see any evidence to prove he was a corrupt official, it didnt mean he wasnt corrupt.

Some officials didnt accept much bribery, and knew how to hide it, so it would be difficult to discover it.

Gu Ning didnt have much time to conduct a thorough investigation now, so she decided to frame Zhou Litao. She aimed to drag Zhou Litao into serious trouble, so she didnt care about losing some money.

Anyway, she needed to do that at night, because it wasnt convenient to carry out her plan during the day. Therefore, Gu Ning left and would come again at night.

In the afternoon, Song Wenxuan asked Gu Ning whether she was free. If she was, she could go to have a meal at the Song familys place.

Gu Ning was free, so she brought Qiao Ya over. Because Gao Yi stayed with Song Wenxuan now, Gu Ning couldnt leave Qiao Ya alone and let her eat alone.

The Song family was very polite to Gao Yi. They didnt slight him just because he was a bodyguard. After all, Song Wenxuan relied on Gao Yi to make sure of his safety.

Song Wenxuan didnt encounter any trouble today. Gu Ning arranged for Gao Yi to be with him, not because she foresaw something terrible might happen to him, but to avoid accidents.

Other members of the Song family were unaware of Gu Nings plan to frame Zhou Litao, because Gu Ning had told Song Wenxuan to keep it a secret between them.

It wasnt because they didnt trust other people, but because it wasnt an honorable thing, and it was better if fewer people knew about it.

Gu Ning didnt tell Song Wenxuan how exactly she was going to frame Zhou Litao. He only needed to know that she would frame Zhou Litao.

After the meal, it was dark, so Gu Ning and Qiao Ya left. Gao Yi, on the other hand, was Song Wenxuans bodyguard for the time being, so he stayed in the Song familys place.

After Gu Ning and Qiao Ya left, Gu Ning told Qiao Ya to drive her to the residential area where Zhou Litao lived, then she got out of the car and told Qiao Ya to leave before her.

Afterwards, Gu Ning disguised herself as Tang Aining, then carried out her plan.

Even though there were surveillance cameras, there would still be blind spots, so Gu Ning avoided the surveillance cameras and went to the backyard of Zhou Litaos house.

There werent many people in the Zhou family. At this moment, only seven people were at home, namely Zhou Litao, his wife, a son, a daughter, a nanny, and two security guards.

Because the security guards were in the front yard, Gu Ning got in from the backyard.

Zhou Litaos family was watching TV in the living room, so there was no one on the second floor. The window wasnt closed, so Gu Ning could do whatever she wanted.

She found the position of the study and glanced around. Although there were burglar bars, the window was open and Gu Ning would be able to put down what she needed to leave there.

After a jump, Gu Ning reached the window of the study, then she reached out and let the monster fox out of her telepathic eye space.

Afterwards, she took out what she wanted to leave in Zhou Litaos study and told the monster fox to put it inside.

They were six gold bars, a small box of jewelry, two guns, and one kilogram of drugs.

She got the gold bars and jewelry from an ancient grave. Some of them were placed in her antique store, and some were kept in her telepathic eye space.

As for the guns, she got them from the Tianying Gang and hadnt handed them to Leng Shaoting yet.

As for the drugs, she had given Leng Shaoting all the drugs she had found in the Tianying Gangs base. She only kept a box of drugs which was used to frame her before, because she thought it might be useful one day.

Now, it indeed came to use.

If all the above stuff was exposed, Zhou Litao would be in serious trouble.

Gu Ning didnt put all the above stuff together, but left them in different cabinets. Because she couldnt open the safe, she couldnt put them in it.

Once it was done, Gu Ning left Zhou Litaos house and went to an unobtrusive small wood. She then used Tang Ainings number to call Song Wenxuan and told him that everything was done. He could send people to come over with the excuse that he had received a report.

Song Wenxuan trusted Gu Ning, so he immediately called the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau and ordered him to search Zhou Litaos house.

The deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, Xiong Xingyi, sided with Song Wenxuan, so he obeyed Song Wenxuans orders. Although it was an abuse of his power, he knew Song Wenxuans character very well. Song Wenxuan never wronged other people. Therefore, Song Wenxuan must be doing it for a reason and he also guessed it might be because Zhou Litao had something to do with his attempted assassination.

No matter how strong Gu Ning was, people who cared about her would still be worried about her safety. Therefore, after the call with Song Wenxuan, Master Leng called Gu Ning and reminded her to be careful.

That morning, the news that the murderer who tried to assassinate Song Wenxuan was caught spread abroad, and it shocked many people, especially the senior official who sent the gunman.

Although he didnt pay the gunman to kill Song Wenxuan in person, he had made the arrangement. Therefore, even if the gunman didnt know that he was the mastermind, if the gunman betrayed the person who paid him, Song Wenxuan could still easily find him using the clues.

Although the person sent by him was reliable, accidents could happen! Therefore, the senior official was quite nervous. He had done a bad thing after all, and it was hard to stay calm as if nothing had happened.

However, no matter how anxious he was now, he couldnt lose control of himself. Perhaps he could stay out of the case.

In order to not attract a lot of attention, he didnt dare to send his people to collect more information for him. He could only watch carefully how it would develop afterwards. He would see what he could do according to the situation then.

While he was surprised and anxious, he was also angry, because the gunman was caught so soon. He couldnt directly collect more information about the gunman, but he could ask the person who was sent by him. He wanted to know whether the gunman was reliable and whether he would be betrayed.

The person didnt think it was very likely, because the gunman was a fugitive and he would be sentenced to death or life imprisonment once he was caught. In addition, the gunman was a filial son, and the person had used his parents to threaten him. If the gunman betrayed them, they would punish his parents. Therefore, the person didnt think the gunman would betray them, but it was a possibility.

After the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau took the gunman away last night, he interrogated him overnight, but the gunman refused to say anything.

Afterwards, they found out that this gunman was also a criminal suspect at large, and he was even a major criminal suspect.

Gu Ning learned more information about the gunman two hours after she asked K to investigate it, and she learned that the gunman was actually a criminal suspect at large.

He didnt apply for his bank card with his ID card, but through a relative of his, so was his phone number. Because he was a criminal suspect at large, he couldnt use his ID card at all. Once he used it, he would be noticed by the police.

As for his bank card, there had been no large deposits since the beginning of the account opening. He only had occasional amounts of tens of thousands of yuan coming into his account, and there was only dozens of thousands of yuan in it now. Obviously, they made the deal in cash.

K had checked all of his call records, and found nothing abnormal. Therefore, he could only conduct the investigation from places the gunman had visited and the people he had contacted through the surveillance videos.

After watching the surveillance videos, K indeed found something abnormal. Two days ago, the gunman was followed by a man, but the man was wearing a peaked cap and a mask so no one could see his appearance.

The gunman soon noticed the man who was following him, then the two met and talked for a while. Because the surveillance videos had no sound, nobody knew what they had talked about.

Anyway, since that man was wearing a peaked cap and a mask, he had to be hiding himself. Therefore, Gu Ning felt he must be the middleman.

At night, the gunman met the man again in a bar.

After the meeting, the man gave the gunman a bag. Although no one could see what was inside, Gu Ning guessed that it was probably money.

With the bag, the gunman left and returned to his residence, while the man walked away after the gunman was gone.

The investigation about the gunman was nearly done, so K carried out a further investigation through the man wearing a cap and mask.

The man also went around for a long time before returning to his residence. After a further investigation, it turned out that the man was related to a certain senior official.

This senior official was the deputy governor of Province C, Zhou Litao, and Zhou Litao was serving the Yuan family.

That was all the information they could collect from the investigation. At least they failed to find evidence to prove that Zhou Litao was the man who paid the gunman to kill Song Wenxuan.

Therefore, even though they knew who the mastermind was, they lacked evidence and it was impossible to punish Zhou Litao with what they had found till now.

It was obvious that the man had closely contacted the gunman, and it could be determined that he paid a gunman to kill Song Wenxuan. However, as long as he didnt admit the crime, Zhou Litao could still get away with it.

In that case, Gu Ning decided to unseat Zhou Litao for Song Wenxuan, because it wasnt difficult for her to unseat him.

Gu Ning asked K to do an investigation about Zhou Litao to see whether they could find anything on him. Even if they couldnt completely remove him from his position, they had to teach him a lesson.

If there was no solid proof, she would make him guilty through some tricks.

It was evil for her to deliberately frame him, but it was his fault that he had tried to kill Song Wenxuan. Gu Ning simply did it to take revenge.

Afterwards, Gu Ning called Song Wenxuan and shared the result with him. Song Wenxuan wasnt surprised after he learned who the mastermind was. It wasnt beyond his expectation. As for Gu Nings plan, Song Wenxuan didnt feel that it wasnt right. They belonged to different factions, so they were fated to be bitter enemies. Therefore, even if the assassination hadnt happened this time, they would still pay special attention to teach the other and were always ready to put one another in jail.

From a human nature point of view, Song Wenxuan wasnt a kind person, at least not to his enemies. As a result, since his enemy took action first this time, there was no reason for him not to take revenge. It was just that it wasnt convenient for him to do something himself.

Gu Ning now had a plan, and Song Wenxuan wouldnt disagree. Instead, he supported her, because he relied on Gu Ning to do a quick investigation.

The police hadnt found any useful information about the mastermind yet, and they were still in the process of interrogating the suspect, so he didnt have much hope for the police.

…

No matter how busy they were, they needed to eat, so Gu Ning and Qiao Ya went to have a meal when it was time for lunch.

Although the news of the assassination of Song Wenxuan was soon removed, only the public couldnt see it and the top officials were all aware of that.

The man laughed at himself for a moment. He knew he didnt have to lose his life if he had only committed that single crime, but he had actually broken the law several times.

Once he was caught, the other crimes he had committed would be exposed too and he would be sentenced to death.

What? Youre not willing to tell me? Gu Ning asked when the man still refused to open his mouth, but she could also see that the man was hesitating. He wasnt determined. However, he still kept his mouth shut.

Well, it seems you dont care about your life at all. If so, I dont need to bother to waste more time on you. You wont be honest anyway. It must be one of Song Wenxuans competitors. Hell come out sooner or later. Since the man was reluctant to tell her, Gu Ning wouldnt force him to do so, since it would be a total waste of time.

As she said, even if the man told her a name, it might not be true, because there were several people who had the motive. He could tell her a random name to fool her.

The man didnt expect Gu Ning to stop asking him so soon, and he suddenly didnt know what to do. What do you want to do? he stayed alert, looking at Gu Ning.

The man felt that if Gu Ning really wanted to know who was the mastermind, he would be safe for the time being. After all, she couldnt hurt him in order to find out who the mastermind was. However, it seemed that she didnt care about it at all.

What do I want to do? Youre not afraid of death. Why do you even care about what I want to do? Since youre not afraid of death, Ill just kill you, Gu Ning sneered and went to attack the man at once.

Gu Ning wouldnt really kill him, because she didnt want to kill people and this man couldnt die right now. Even if he refused to tell her who the mastermind was, she still needed to put him in jail.

She did that in order to tell the person who paid this man and other people who had the idea of murdering Song Wenxuan that Song Wenxuan wasnt vulnerable.

The mastermind would also be nervous after this man was caught, because this man might betray him. The mastermind wouldnt live comfortably from now on.

However, it was also possible that the mastermind wasnt afraid of being exposed. He shouldnt be an idiot, and might have ordered someone else to pay this man to kill Song Wenxuan.

Seeing Gu Ning attacking him, the man fought back right away. Although he knew Gu Ning wasnt weak, it didnt mean he was scared of her and didnt dare to fight back. On the contrary, in order to survive, he had to do his best.

The man wasnt weak among ordinary people, but compared to Gu Ning, he was no match and Gu Ning easily caught him in a few moments.

No matter how he struggled, the man couldnt get rid of Gu Nings hands.

It shocked and scared him, because Gu Ning was much stronger than he imagined.

Afterwards, the man felt despair. It seemed he was doomed to be caught by Gu Ning.

Gu Ning then knocked the man unconscious before calling Song Wenxuan and telling him that the gunman was already caught. She was going to hand the man to him.

It wasnt early now, but Song Wenxuan couldnt sleep, because he had just been through a terrible experience today. He hadnt recovered from it yet.

When Song Wenxuan received Gu Nings call and heard the news, he directly sat up on the bed in shock. What? You caught the gunman?

It was unbelievable! Even the police had no clue yet, but Gu Ning already caught the gunman.

Yeah, but he refused to tell me who the mastermind is. Even if he told me, it might not be true, so I didnt continue to question him. After all, there are a few suspects, so its possible for any of them to be guilty. Ill hand it over to you now, and Ill carry out a further investigation using this mans identity, said Gu Ning.

She didnt know who the man was, so she couldnt get more information earlier on, but now that she learned the mans name, ID number, and bank account, she could conduct a further investigation.

Sure, Ill send people to take him, said Song Wenxuan.

Before the police came, Gu Ning collected the mans ID card and bank cards, then took a picture of them so that K could investigate further.

In addition, in case the gunman didnt use his own ID card to apply for the phone number, Gu Ning used his phone to call her number and added his number to her contacts.

Half an hour later, two police cars showed up downstairs.

Song Wenxuan didnt come, because it wasnt convenient for him to go around now. Only his secretary and the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau came. The deputy director of the Public Security Bureau was in the same faction as Song Wenxuan, so he was reliable.

In front of Song Wenxuans secretary and other people, Gu Ning didnt bother to disguise herself any longer, so she removed her mask.

Because Gu Ning caught the murderer, they all admired her very much.

Once they arrived, Gu Ning left, in case they asked her all kinds of questions.

And because of Gu Nings special status, nobody dared to stop her from leaving.

It was already 1 am when Gu Ning got back to the hotel, so she washed herself and went to sleep.

Early the next morning, Gu Ning sent K the mans ID number, bank account and phone number, then asked him to conduct a further investigation.

Because it was too late yesterday and it wasnt an emergency, she didnt bother K and waited till this morning.

After that, Gu Ning brought Gao Yi to the Song family and met Song Wenxuan.

The Song family was very grateful to Gu Ning, because she had saved Song Wenxuans life and even caught the criminal.

Is the Leng family aware of it? Gu Ning asked Song Wenxuan.

Not yet, but Ill call Master Leng later. Theyll be worried if they hear the news, but I think they need to know, said Song Wenxuan.

Sure, its necessary for them to know that, said Gu Ning.

Therefore, on Song Wenxuans way to work, he called Master Leng.

When Master Leng heard the news, he was angry, but he wasnt surprised. After all, he had been involved in politics for years, so it wasnt surprising. In fact, he had encountered assassination attempts countless times before, especially when he was the chairman of the country.

It wasnt surprising, but they had to catch the mastermind, or their enemies might think they were easy to bully.

Song Wenxuan also told Master Leng that Gu Ning had helped him a lot, otherwise he would have been seriously injured even if he could survive. It was also Gu Ning who caught the criminal so quickly.

Hearing that, Master Leng felt very proud of his future granddaughter-in-law, but he was worried about Gu Nings safety as well.

When it was nearly 11 am, Gu Ning received a message from K. He told her that he found the location of the gunman. He was in No. 3, Building 12, X Unit, XX residential area.

It took K a longer time, because the gunman deliberately took a complicated route and spent some time in another place.

The owner of the house was an unmarried woman, while the man who shot Song Wenxuan was a man, so K failed to find the gunman at the beginning.

Since they learned the gunmans address, Gu Ning needed to go there. She didnt bring Gao Yi and Qiao Ya with her this time, and went there alone. However, Gu Ning wasnt familiar with City C, so she used the GPS.

About twenty minutes later, she arrived at the residential area.

After parking her car nearby, she walked there, because she had to be fully-prepared to do bad things.

Because it was a normal residential area, the security wasnt very tight, so Gu Ning directly went up from the underground parking lot in an elevator.

On the 12th floor, Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to see the situation in the room.

There was only a man in it. He was about 30, and was lying on the bed, listening to music with his headphones. There was a gun on the bedside table.

Gu Ning turned her Jade Eyes to see what other people were doing in the other apartments. There were four apartments on each floor. One wasnt furnished yet, one was empty, while a man and a woman were having passionate sex to loud music in the other one.

Seeing that amorous picture, Gu Ning withdrew her gaze at once.

It was very loud there, so they couldnt hear what happened outside, so Gu Ning could do whatever she needed to do.

Because this was a tall building, the windows were all equipped with burglar bars. As a result, if she wanted to get in, she would need to either break the door or cut off those burglar bars to go in through the windows.

Whether she chose to break the door or cut off the burglar bars, it would make noises, so Gu Ning decided to observe the surroundings before taking action.

Gu Ning didnt forget to look at the floor beneath room No. 3. The floor wasnt furnished yet, so there was nobody.

Without delay, Gu Ning took action.

It would make more noise if she broke the door, so Gu Ning chose to cut off the burglar bars.

She first damaged the surveillance cameras in the corridor, then took out a dagger to cut off the burglar bars.

With the help of her magical energy, she easily broke them. Although she made some noise, it didnt attract attention.

After that, Gu Ning crawled out of the window of the aisle and went to the window of the bathroom of No. 3 room. Because the bathroom was next to the entryway, it was very close to the window near the aisle.

Gu Ning cut off the burglar bars of the bathroom, then went in through the bathroom.

When she did that, she made some loud noises and attracted the attention of the man in the master bedroom. He immediately walked over to have a look.

The man didnt know where the sound came from, so after he walked out of the bedroom, he looked around to search for it.

As soon as he walked to the balcony of the living room and stepped back after a glance, he saw Gu Ning standing in the living room. He was frightened and moved a few steps backwards in fear. With a look of shock, he pointed to Gu Ning and asked nervously, W-Who are you? What are you doing here?

For a moment, the man had a ridiculous idea that Gu Ning might be a ghost because she showed up from nowhere.

He remembered that he had closed and locked the door. Even if there was a key, no one should be able to come in.

Besides, there were burglar bars, and it was impossible for a human to get in.

Even if anyone wanted to get in, he or she had to break the burglar bars, which would make loud noises, but he had heard nothing.

It had just been a little movement over there, so he didnt think the burglar bars were already broken.

However, he didnt believe in ghosts, so he thought that he might have forgotten to lock the door and Gu Ning might have a key to his apartment and directly walked in by opening the door.

Its not important who I am, but I came to see you for a reason, said Gu Ning in a flat voice, looking at him.

What is it? the man asked. He knew that Gu Ning showed up for nothing good, so he stayed alert.

Although Gu Ning was just a woman, she couldnt be weak since she could show up here without anyone noticing her.

Did you shoot Song Wenxuan about 6:30 pm outside XX hotel? Gu Ning asked. Although she asked that question, she already had the answer.

Hearing that, the man panicked and showed obvious surprise, because he couldnt believe it was exposed.

Even though Gu Ning already knew it, the man still refused to admit it. I dont understand what youre talking about.

You dont understand? Stop lying. I can see youre guilty. Gu Ning said mockingly, Tell you what, Ive witnessed everything, otherwise I wouldnt come to see you. Do you want to know why Song Wenxuan suddenly lowered his body and avoided the bullet? Because I was secretly talking to him on the phone. I saw you point a gun at him, so I told him to duck.

You…

The man couldnt stay calm any longer. Back then, he thought Song Wenxuan reacted quickly and successfully avoided the bullet. He was even amazed by Song Wenxuans agility. However, it turned out that someone was spying on him the entire time.

How was it possible?

In an instant, the man looked dangerous, staring at Gu Ning. If what she said was true, he had to kill her now.

Whether anyone else was aware of it, he had to kill all the witnesses since his secret was already exposed, otherwise he would be in trouble.

So, tell me, who paid you to kill Song Wenxuan? Gu Ning asked coldly as she stared at the man.

The man remained silent.

You can lose your life. Do you know that? Gu Ning became colder.

Can I survive after I tell you? Im afraid I wont live after trying to shoot the secretary of the provincial party committee, said the man. He didnt bother to deny the fact that he had tried to murder Song Wenxuan now, because Gu Ning had witnessed it. It was useless for him to deny it now.

Once the assassination was exposed, he clearly knew what would happen to him, but he refused to be caught without struggling.

Youre not dumb, but you dont have to pay with your life for it. If you can tell me who the mastermind is, I can help you get a lighter sentence, said Gu Ning.

In half an hour, Song Wenxuan finished the meal and excused himself from the other people.

Song Wenxuans secretary needed to drive the car, so he left along with Song Wenxuan.

Once Song Wenxuan came out, he saw Gu Ning and apologized. Im sorry for keeping you waiting.

Song Wenxuans secretary was surprised to see Gu Ning, not because he knew her, but because he realized that the Leng familys future granddaughter-in-law was very young.

Its fine. Lets go now! Gu Ning didnt care about it. It wasnt convenient for them to have a conversation here, so Gu Ning didnt bother to say much.

Afterwards, they left together.

Although Song Wenxuan was gone, people in the private room didnt change their topic. They didnt talk much about Song Wenxuan either, because they werent in the same faction and it might cause trouble if they said something they shouldnt have said.

It was better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

…

Gu Ning and the others walked out of the door of the hotel, then told a valet parker to help them bring their car over. Gu Ning told Song Wenxuan to get in her car, while his secretary drove his car.

To avoid accidents, Gu Ning had used her Jade Eyes to check Song Wenxuans car. She saw nothing wrong with it, so she let Song Wenxuans secretary drive it away.

After they were away from the hotel, Song Wenxuan asked, Gu Ning, how did you know someone would shoot me?

Gu Ning then gave him the same explanation she had given the Song family. Song Wenxuan was greatly surprised and couldnt believe his ears, but it was the truth no matter how unbelievable it was. After all, it was impossible that Gu Ning caused it. There was no reason for her to do that.

Song Wenxuan wasnt suspicious of Gu Ning, because she was family.

I bet you must have a name in your mind after it happened, but we are not sure who did that yet. Ive already arranged for someone to investigate it, but it might take some time, said Gu Ning. Ks abilities were also limited, so Gu Ning couldnt be sure of it before he found anything useful.

Gu Ning continued, I think it wont end just like that, so Ill stay in City C for a while in case any accidents happen again. I can be helpful here too. And I also want to send someone to protect you if you dont mind.

Song Wenxuan had bodyguards to protect him, but they were hardly comparable to Gao Yi. Gao Yi alone was stronger than ten of his bodyguards. Therefore, Gu Ning planned to stay with Song Wenxuan these days.

Of course not! But will it interrupt your schedule if you stay here with me? Song Wenxuan felt touched that Gu Ning was so protective of him, but he was worried that it might affect Gu Nings plans.

In fact, he knew that Gu Ning was much stronger than he thought, so he didnt think she was bragging.

No, it wont. Im free these days. If I need to deal with something, Ill leave then, said Gu Ning.

Great! If so, Song Wenxuan accepted her kindness.

Oh, Uncle Wenxuan, I need to tell you something, but you must keep it a secret, said Gu Ning seriously.

Sure, Ill never tell anyone else, said Song Wenxuan.

I have a relationship with the leader of the Tianying Gang. I learned from him that someone tried to frame you. The Tianying Gang has been through something not long ago, and now it wont be involved in illegal activities anymore. So, please avoid having conflicts with the Tianying Gang. If you think it needs more changes, just tell me and Ill let them know. If you want them to do anything, as long as its legal, I can help you with that as well. Please dont worry, they wont hurt you, said Gu Ning. She told Song Wenxuan that because she hoped that there wouldnt be conflicts between them. After all, Song Wenxuan was an official in the government, while the Tianying Gang was an illegal gang. It was hard for them not to have conflicts.

Hearing that, Song Wenxuan was astonished. He didnt expect that Gu Ning had a relationship with the Tianying Gang.

Gu Ning continued, Actually, I also have a relationship with the Qing Gang, and the Kirin Gang, so you can turn to me for help if you need to deal with them in the future. Shaoting is aware of all that.

At this moment, Song Wenxuan was stunned. Unexpectedly, Gu Ning also had a relationship with the Qing Gang, and the Kirin Gang, which were the two major gangs in the country.

Song Wenxuan wasnt conservative, and he knew the existence of illegal gangs couldnt be totally removed. Illegal gangs could control some crimes, so he wasnt biased against them, but neither was he in favor of them. After all, they were illegal gangs.

In fact, not every official in the government was upright. Some officials were even worse than the illegal gangs.

All of a sudden, Song Wenxuan felt Gu Ning was much more complicated than he thought. She wasnt like a 19 year-old girl, she was more like a wily old fox about forty years old.

Uncle Wenxuan, you might have a bad impression of me for that, but you should know the use of illegal gangs better than me. Its better to have a good relationship with them than to be their enemies, said Gu Ning.

Im surprised by your relationship with those illegal gangs, but Im not conservative. I understand why those illegal gangs have to exist. Its very dangerous to deal with them, but its not a completely bad thing, so I dont have a bad impression of you at all, said Song Wenxuan sincerely.

Whether these illegal gangs had broken the law, it wasnt a big deal as long as Gu Ning obeyed the law.

Actually, even if Song Wenxuan disapproved of her, Gu Ning didnt care, but she felt happy to know that Song Wenxuan didnt have a bad impression of her.

When they were back in the Song familys home, the others immediately asked them whether they were fine. Seeing they were safe, the others were relieved.

After staying in the Song familys place for a while, Gu Ning left. The Song family wanted her to stay for a night, but she declined.

So because Gu Ning insisted on leaving, they didnt force her to stay.

When Gu Ning left, she went directly back to the hotel, which was the Shengshi Hotel situated in the city center.

Gu Ning always stayed either in the Shengshi Hotel, or the Huangdeng Hotel. They were both free after all, so she didnt need to stay somewhere else.

Gu Ning booked a presidential suite with three bedrooms, since because of Gu Nings presence, Gao Yi and Qiao Ya felt embarrassed to sleep in the same room.

Back in the hotel, Gu Ning asked Gao Yi to be Song Wenxuans bodyguard for a few days.
