At 10 pm, Leng Shaoting called Gu Ning and told her about what he had encountered last night.
He didn’t know why he could suddenly defeat the man of the Evil Practice, and he was afraid that he might not be able to control the force. It was a very important issue, so he had to talk about it with Gu Ning although it might worry her.
Gu Ning was definitely worried when she heard that Leng Shaoting was injured because of the man. In addition, she was also greatly surprised to know that Leng Shaoting could absorb the magical power of a night-luminescent pearl on his own.
“Well, honestly I have no idea about it, but it won’t have bad effects on your body. You have a night-luminescent pearl in your hands right now, so I think you can stay safe with it. Don’t return it to the museum,” Gu Ning said in a serious tone.
As long as Leng Shaoting had the night-luminescent pearl with him, she believed that he would be fine.
“Sure,” Leng Shaoting said.
It wasn’t difficult for him to keep this night-luminescent pearl. He could pay the museum an amount of money for it.
They dropped the topic later and casually chatted with each other for a while.
After hanging up, Gu Ning kept thinking about what he just told her.
If Leng Shaoting was able to use the force in his stomach to defeat the man of the Evil Practice, it meant that he could not be a mortal. Therefore, the first idea that appeared in Gu Ning’s mind was that Leng Shaoting might have something to do with cultivators.
Moreover, it was also possible that Leng Shaoting had taken too many of the power crystals she gave him and his body changed afterwards.
Either way, she needed to do some research. Gu Ning couldn’t sleep that night.
…
Because of the night-luminescent pearl, Leng Shaoting’s stomach wasn’t uncomfortable any longer. At the same time, his body was still slowly absorbing the magical power of the night-luminescent pearl.
If any cultivator saw this scene, he or she would be stunned, because the magical power circulated in Leng Shaoting’s body the exact way it would while they were practicing their cultivation.
In other words, Leng Shaoting didn’t need to practice his cultivation, the magical power could circulate in his body on its own.
Gu Ning would be anxious if she knew that, because it meant that Leng Shaoting was in a state of cultivation now.
…
Although Gu Ning couldn’t sleep at all last night, she was still full of energy when she got up the next morning. With the help of her magical power, she could stay energetic even if she didn’t sleep.
At 10 am, Gu Ning received a call from Gao Weichao, and he told her that he liked Peng Xinghao’s designs.
The next day after Gu Ning went back to City B, Peng Xinghao and Peng Xiaoman came as well. Peng Xinghao went to have an interview in Gu Ning’s garment company, and was hired, and although Peng Xiaoman didn’t have any professional skills, she was a good saleswoman, so she would work in the sales department.
Peng Xiaoman believed that she could have a better and better life in the future, because almost every staffer in Gu Ning’s companies had good pay.
Afterwards, Peng Xiaoman and Peng Xinghao called Gu Ning to thank her. Even though they had some money now, it wasn’t enough for them to afford a house in City B.
Peng Xinghao needed a quiet place for his job, so he decided to rent an apartment with his older sister. They could get a housing allowance of two thousand yuan, so they only needed to pay another thousand yuan to rent a good apartment near the company.
Because City B was an international city, the rent was very high. Luckily, they could afford the rent.
Other than letting Gu Ning know about Peng Xinghao, Gao Weichao also told Gu Ning that their clothing brand, Gufan, was about to be released, and its flagship store would be opening in half a month.
The name of Gu Ning’s clothing brand was Gufan, and the company shared the same name. Gufan would produce male and female clothes, shoes, bags and so on and Charm gowns belonged to Gufan.
The flagship store of Gufan was very large, and occupied about four hundred square meters.
In addition to casual clothes, there were formal gowns in the store as well that were placed next to Charm gowns.
