Those who bet on both Chen Xing and Liu Qiang won some and lost some.
“I wanted to bet on Chen Xing in the beginning, but I changed my mind in the end, so I bet on Liu Qiang,” Hao Ran said laughing out.
“Leave me alone!” Chu Peihan was mad. It was nothing to lose some money, but she hated the feeling of failure.
“Why? I wasn’t the only one who bet on Liu Qiang,” Hao Ran said on purpose.
“You…” Chu Peihan was annoyed and turned her sight away from Hao Ran.
All of a sudden, Gu Ning glanced at the opposite private room and noticed a familiar man.
There were three men and two women sitting across from each other. Gu Ning recognized one of the men. It was Le Zhengyu.
Gu Ning had also met the two women in the shopping mall with An Qian the other day. They were Chen Mengqi and her friend.
Why is Le Zhengyu with Chen Mengqi?
Gu Ning was confused, but she wasn’t clear about the real situation, so she decided to wait for a while longer.
“What’s wrong?” Noticing that Gu Ning was staring at the opposite private room, Leng Shaoting asked her with curiosity.
He looked over, following Gu Ning’ sight, and saw the people in the opposite private room, but he didn’t know them.
“I see a man that I know, but it seems to be a little strange,” Gu Ning said, fixing her eyes on the opposite private room.
Leng Shaoting didn’t ask further, nor bother her.
Before long, Le Zhengyu stood up, leaving the private room and Chen Mengqi immediately took out a small paper package from her handbag. She opened it and poured some powder into Le Zhengyu’s wine glass.
Gu Ning sensed that something had to be wrong. She stood up without hesitation. “Excuse me. I need to go out for a while.”
Her friends thought that Gu Ning was going to the ladies’ room, so they didn’t care much.
Leng Shaoting noticed the same scene, so he understood what Gu Ning was going to do. “Do you want me to go with you?”
Hearing that, everyone gave Leng Shaoting a glance, and thought that he was strange because they believed that he was going to the ladies room together with Gu Ning. Leng Shaoting, instead, was confused as to why they suddenly all looked at him like that.
Gu Ning had no time to waste. “No, it’s fine. I can handle it.”
“Great,” Leng Shaoting said.
Gu Ning then ran straight to the opposite private room, in case Le Zhengyu would be trapped.
Although she didn’t know exactly what the white powder was, it had to be something terrible.
Chen Mengqi had to be planning to sleep with Le Zhengyu in an amoral way.
Just as Gu Ning came out into the passage, Le Zhengyu walked back into the room. Gu Ning knew that she had to stop him at once.
Le Zhengyu took his wine glass, and was about to drink. At this time, Gu Ning deliberately knocked the door heavily and made a loud sound.
All the people sitting inside were sacred by the sound, and stopped drinking with one accord.
Seeing that with her Jade Eyes, Gu Ning was relieved a little.
“Who is it?” a man aked with impatience. He wasn’t Le Zhengyu.
Gu Ning ignored him, but said, “Mr. Le, I’m Gu Ning. It’s urgent.”
All the other people witnessed Chen Mengqi putting the drugs into Le Zhengyu’s wine glass, but nobody said a word. Apparently, they were a group, who planned to trap Le Zhengyu together.
Hearing that it was Gu Ning, Le Zhengyu put his wine glass down, walking towards the door. Although he didn’t know why Gu Ning was in a hurry, she was An Qian’s friend and he couldn’t ignore her.
Le Zhengyu opened the door, saying to Gu Ning with care, “Miss Gu, may I help?”
“It’s you!” Chen Mengqi was quite surprised to see Gu Ning.
The woman sitting beside Chen Mengqi was also astonished.
Gu Ning gave Chen Mengqi a knowing glance, which made Chen Mengqi tremble unconsciously, but she didn’t believe that Gu Ning knew what she was doing.
“Do you know each other?” Le Zhengyu asked.
“Not really. We just met once only, but it was impressive…” Gu Ning said with great interest. Chen Mengqi’s face changed, and immediately interrupted her, “Stop that!”
“What? Miss Chen, I haven’t finished yet, so why do I have to stop? And why are you panicking?” Gu Ning lifted the corners of her lips, and asked in a meaningful way.
“You…” Chen Mengqi was mad, but didn’t know how to retort.
“Miss Gu, what emergency do you have?” Le Zhengyu noticed that Gu Ning didn’t get along with Chen Mengqi, but he didn’t want to delay Gu Ning’s emergency.
“It’s fine now. And I just want to have a glass of wine with Miss Chen. May I come in?” Gu Ning said, then walked inside directly.
Everyone was surprised by Gu Ning’s sudden movement.
With Le Zhengyu’s presence, Chen Mengqi couldn’t reject, so she answered, “Sure, it’s nothing.”
Then she raised her wine glass.
There was a new glass beside, and Le Zhengyu poured the wine for Gu Ning.
“Miss Chen, let’s change glasses!” Gu Ning wore an evil smile, and handed Le Zhengyu’s wine glass to Chen Mengqi.
Everyone was shocked and panicked.
Does she know? No, it’s impossible! How could she know?
“Miss Gu, this wine glass is mine.” Le Zhengyu didn’t understand why Gu Ning did that, became there was already a wine glass in Chen Mengqi’s hand.
“Miss Gu, what do you want to do? I have a wine glass already, so why do I have to use another person’s glass?” Chen Mengqi tried her best to stay calm.
Even though Gu Ning found out her secret, she wouldn’t admit it.
“What? Is it a big deal? It’s a new glass of wine,” Gu Ning said.
“You…” Chen Mengqi of course wouldn’t drink the wine in the glass.
“Miss Gu…” Le Zhengyu didn’t know what Gu Ning was doing, but her behavior was very unusual.
“Mr. Le, if you trust me, please stay quiet for a moment,” Gu Ning said calmly.
Le Zhengyu was a businessman and he instantly sensed that something must be wrong after Gu Ning’s reminder.
Why won’t Gu Ning let the wine glass go? Is there something else in the wine? Le Zhengyu suddenly figured it out and was displeased. However, since Gu Ning told him to be quiet for a moment, he decided to wait for what was going to happen next.
