“Your eldest uncle just told me that the nurse took her eyes off your eldest aunt for a while, and then your eldest aunt ran away from home. They are searching for her right now, and were about to call the police!” Gu Qing told Gu Ning.
Before long, Gu Qinxiang and the nurse came.
The nurse blamed herself for it, but Gu Qinxiang had no intention to criticize her, because Lin Lijuan was mentally ill now and behaved like an ignorant kid. In addition, the nurse took good care of Lin Lijuan and didn’t treat her badly because she was mentally ill.
Even though Lin Lijuan was mentally ill now, she didn’t shout or damage things, but remained silent all day long.
Gu Ning could cure her, but didn’t want to, because it wasn’t good for Lin Lijuan to recover. Once Lin Lijuan recovered, she would remember the terrible rape she had been through, which might completely ruin her life. Now Lin Lijuan was at least still alive and treated well.
Gu Qinxiang thanked Gu Ning the second he came, because Gu Qing told him that it was Gu Ning who found Lin Lijuan.
“Ningning, thank you.” He thanked Gu Ning with great sincerity, because Gu Ning had helped him a lot.
“It’s fine.” Gu Ning gave him a smile. She didn’t know that Gu Qinxiang thanked her not only because she had helped them find Lin Lijuan, but also because she had helped him settle an important business deal.
Thanks to Gu Ning, Gu Qinxiang’s company had gone back to normal now, and even made more money than before. More and more people learned that he was Gu Ning’s eldest uncle, so they were willing to do business with him.
Gu Qinxiang didn’t talk about it himself, because he still felt guilty for what he had done to Gu Ning’s family before, but the news went abroad within a very short time.
Gu Ning didn’t mind that Gu Qinxiang’s business became better because of her. As long as he didn’t do any bad deeds with her influence, she wouldn’t stop him from making more money.
“I heard that you got the highest total score in the exam this year. Congratulations!” Gu Qinxiang said.
“Thanks.” Gu Ning was very polite.
After that, Gu Qinxiang brought Lin Lijuan home. He treated Lin Lijuan like a kid now, but even though Lin Lijuan was mentally ill, he didn’t abandon her.
Gu Ning also walked away later, and Gu Qing went back to her store.
…
When Gu Ning finally arrived home, it was already 3 pm.
After having a nap, Gu Ning booked a ticket to fly back to City B for the next morning. She planned to go to the capital the day after tomorrow, because Qi Ziyue and Tang Yaxin’s wedding was only three days away.
…
Yu Mixi was still at work at 5 pm, when the others all left for the appointed place. It was still early, so they enjoyed the tea before the meal started.
When Gu Ning passed by Shenghua Real Estate, she thought for a while, then told the driver to stop the car. She wanted to see Yu Mixi and go to meet their friends along with her.
Although Shenghua Real Estate was her company, she seldom came here, but because Gu Ning had the director certificate of Shenghua Real Estate, nobody dared to stop her.
The staff didn’t know that there were only two directors in Shenghua Real Estate, Gu Ning and An Guangyao. They saw Gu Ning’s director certificate, but weren’t aware that she was the real owner of the company.
When Gu Ning saw Yu Mixi at the finance department, she noticed that Yu Mixi didn’t look well. Her face was pale, and she seemed in a bad condition.
“Who are you? This is the finance department, and outsiders are not allowed to come inside!” A staff member stopped Gu Ning when she opened the door.
The staff member was just doing her job, so Gu Ning didn’t show any dissatisfaction.
Gu Ning showed her the director certificate at once, and the staff member was astonished and apologized. “Sorry, Director Gu, I didn’t know it was you.”
It was very normal that she didn’t have a chance to meet the senior management of Shenghua Real Estate. Nevertheless, she was very surprised that they had such a young director in their company.
“No worries.” Gu Ning didn’t mind and walked to Yu Mixi.
Other staff members were surprised too, but they all stood up and greeted Gu Ning with great respect.
“Nice to see you, Director Gu.”
Yu Mixi heard the noise, and looked surprised as well. “Ningning, what are you doing here?”
Yu Mixi didn’t know that Director Gu was Gu Ning, and she wasn’t aware of Gu Ning’s relationship with Shenghua Real Estate either, so she didn’t think further and directly called Gu Ning’s name.
Her colleagues, however, were shocked. It was obvious that Yu Mixi was very close to Director Gu.
“Mixi, are you alright? You don’t look well,” Gu Ning asked with concern.
“Ningning, I-I’m on my period now, and my stomach is sore.” Yu Mixi lowered her voice. She was having menstrual cramps.
“Why don’t you ask for leave and have a rest at home? Go buy some medicine for yourself,” Gu Ning said and took out a power crystal for Yu Mixi to take.
Yu Mixi took it without hesitation and felt much better in seconds. She was too shy to leave the company earlier, and she would get off work in half an hour, so she decided to tolerate it.
“Go buy Colaine medicine for your cramps later, you can take it whenever you have menstrual cramps again,” Gu Ning said.
