“Although the man is really good at fighting, I was still able to control the situation. He escaped at the end, and I stayed to guard the girl before I called the police. Then I left it to the police,” Gu Ning continued.
“Did they make it difficult for you?” Leng Shaoting asked. He really cared about her safety.
“No, I told them who I am, and they went to check the surveillance videos. I also gave their leader my name card so that they can contact me if they need my help,” Gu Ning said.
The police could easily find the truth after checking the surveillance videos, so they knew that Gu Ning was innocent.
Gu Ning understood that the man of the Evil Practice wouldn’t forget her, and that it was highly likely that he was still in City B now. However, it was hard for the man to recognize her unless she released some magical power.
She was wearing a black cloak and mask back then and had a different voice. Even if she stood right in front of the man right now, he still couldn’t recognize her.
Gu Ning didn’t think that the man had the ability to find her real identity. She wasn’t afraid of him at all, but was slightly worried that her family might get involved.
As for the young girl, Gu Ning had saved her life once, but she wasn’t sure that she could help her out all the time.
Gu Ning could only hope that the girl’s family would protect her well.
“Shaoting, I have a feeling that we’re going to fight against the man of the Evil Practice one day in the future, so you must be careful.” Gu Ning reminded Leng Shaoting to protect himself well. She sensed that he would encounter the man of the Evil Practice sooner or later. Although Leng Shaoting was able to beat the man down, they weren’t clear about how many members of the Evil Practice there were.
If they ran into more members of the Evil Practice, it would be difficult for them to win the fight. Most importantly, she had a premonition that Leng Shaoting would be hurt by them.
Her premonitions were always right, so they had to be very careful.
“Sure.”
Leng Shaoting understood that it was dangerous.
He was also aware that Gu Ning’s premonitions were always right, so he couldn’t be more careful.
In fact, before he met Gu Ning, he didn’t care much about death, as long as he died in a good way. However, he changed his mind ever since Gu Ning became his girlfriend because he was unwilling to leave her.
Thinking of that, Leng Shaoting squeezed Gu Ning’s hand.
…
When it was about 3 pm, they went back to the Tang family’s house. Cao Wenxin had picked Xin Bei up and they were there too.
Xin Bei showed up as Cao Wenxin’s boyfriend this time.
He had met Tang Yunrong, Cao Ruihua, and Jiang Lihua before, but this was the first time that he had met other members of the Tang family.
Luckily, he had already met his future parents-in-law, namely Tang Yunrong and Cao Ruihua, so he didn’t feel very nervous now. In addition, he also hoped to meet Cao Wenxin’s other family members.
…
Tang Yunfan and others were chatting with their guests in the hall while they were drinking tea and having desserts.
In the yard, Tang Yunrong was talking with a woman that was the same age as her, and there was a young girl in her early twenties by the woman’s side. She was beautiful and smiled like a well-educated lady.
Gu Ning guided her friends to have a rest in the house, while Cao Wenxin and Xin Bei went to meet Tang Yunrong.
When Tang Yunrong saw Xin Bei, her eyes lit up because she highly approved of her future son-in-law.
Xin Bei’s family wasn’t rich, nor powerful, but he was very outstanding and had become a major at such a young age. He had a bright future.
The Cao family was a military family, so they had a preference for military officers. Most importantly, they had a good impression of Xin Bei.
“Hi, Xin Bei!” Tang Yunrong beamed and greeted Xin Bei.
The two females standing by Tang Yunrong’s side were both stunned by Xin Bei when he walked towards them, especially the young girl.
Her heart skipped a beat when Xin Bei appeared in her sight. She realized that she fell in love with him at first glance.
He came together with Cao Wenxin. Is he her boyfriend?
The young girl felt upset. Although she already had a boyfriend, her boyfriend was barely comparable to Xin Bei. Moreover, she wasn’t married yet, so she thought that she still had the right to choose the man that she loved the most.
“Nice to see you again, Mrs. Cao,” Xin Bei said politely.
“Hi, mom, aunt and Cousin Zhiyu!” Cao Wenxin greeted them with a broad smile.
“Hi, Wenxin!”
“Nice to see you, Wenxin!”
They also greeted Cao Wenxin politely.
After that, their sight fell on Xin Bei. Cao Wenxin’s aunt asked Tang Yunrong, “Who is this handsome young man?”
“He’s Wenxin’s boyfriend, Xin Bei,” Tang Yunrong said with pride.
“Nice to meet you,” Xin Bei said.
“Nice to meet you too.” Cao Wenxin’s aunt smiled. “May I know what your job is, Mr. Xin?”
“I’m a soldier,” Xin Bei replied.
