After exchanging greetings, Zheng Peng introduced his team to Kang Shaojie. They greeted each other as well, then sat down.
Afterwards, Kang Shaojie turned to look at Gu Ning and asked, “Miss Gu, are you the owner of the Colorful Raw Jade Material Mining Company?”
Although Kang Shaojie felt it was very likely, he still wanted to make sure. He could be wrong, and they might just be business partners. Therefore, he needed to ask.
“Yes.” Gu Ning replied.
Hearing the answer, Kang Shaojie was shocked again.
In that case, the Wang family’s downfall must have something to do with Gu Ning.
He had no sympathy for the Wang family’s misfortune. After all, they deserved it.
Therefore, whether or not it had something to do with Gu Ning, Kang Shaojie wouldn’t bring it up.
“Miss Gu, you’re indeed full of surprises.” Kang Shaojie said in surprise, “Oh, I just read information about you on the Internet yesterday. I didn’t expect you to be the chairman of the Shengning Organization. You look so young. You must be a talented business genius, for you to establish such a successful business group at such a young age.”
“Thank you so much for your compliment, Mr. Kang.” Gu Ning thanked him. She didn’t care whether he had learned about her on purpose or by accident. In fact, it wouldn’t be right if Kang Shaojie knew nothing about her. After all, they just made a big deal!
At this moment, a waiter came in with the menu, so they stopped chatting.
After ordering and the waiter went out, they continued to chat.
“Mr. Kang, I’ll be leaving tomorrow, but Manager Zheng will be in charge of everything here. If he encounters any trouble, please help him,” said Gu Ning. Although the Kang family was in a mess now, their influence wasn’t affected, so their connections were still helpful.
Moreover, within a week, Kang Yuanbo would recover and their internal issues would be solved.
“Don’t worry, Miss Gu, I’m happy to help Manger Zheng if he runs into any trouble. Even if there isn’t any trouble, we can stay in touch. We can be friends,” said Kang Shaojie. He had already made up his mind to maintain a good relationship with Gu Ning, so he accepted whatever conditions she laid down. After all, it wasn’t difficult.
Only when they helped each other could their relationship last for a long time. If he didn’t return her kindness, their relationship wouldn’t last.
“Great, Chairman Tang, please don’t feel bothered,” said Zheng Peng.
“Of course I won’t. Why don’t we exchange numbers?” said Kang Shaojie.
Afterwards, they exchanged their phone numbers.
Even though it was Kang Shaojie’s first meeting with Zheng Peng, they were peers, so they shared many things in common.
As peers they were competitors, but there were many people involved in the same industry. They couldn’t be enemies just because they worked in the same industry.
It was mainly up to how they got along with each other.
Peers might not just be competitors, they could also be partners.
After the meal, they dispersed instead of adjourning to another place.
However, before they separated, Kang Shaojie said to Gu Ning, “Miss Gu, can we have a private conversation? I might need your help for something.”
Because there were too many people around the table earlier, it wasn’t convenient for him to speak to her about it.
“Sure.” Gu Ning agreed.
Afterwards, Gu Ning followed Kang Shaojie to the side without anyone around them.
Kang Shaojie said, “My father is much better after taking your medicine, Miss Gu. He can now breathe normally. The medicine is really amazing!”
When Kang Shaojie came to see Gu Ning, he had called Kang Yuanbo and asked about his condition.
Although he was convinced by Gu Ning, he was still surprised after hearing about Kang Yuanbo’s condition.
“Great, he’ll be even better after a few more days,” said Gu Ning.
Kang Shaojie believed her, so he was full of anticipation.
“Oh, Miss Gu, can you sell more pills to me? My mother isn’t feeling well these days; her body is acting up,” said Kang Shaojie. When he spoke, he felt a little embarrassed, because he knew that this medicine was rare. He didn’t want to make it difficult for Gu Ning. However, for the sake of his mother, he had to make the request.
There was nothing more important than his family’s health.
“Of course, but the number is limited, so I can’t give you a lot. I can only give you six pills.” Gu Ning agreed to his request, but she couldn’t sell him many. Even though she had a lot, she had to control the quantity so that it would stay precious.
“Six pills are a lot. Thank you very much, Miss Gu!” Kang Shaojie was very happy to know that Gu Ning was willing to give him more pills. Given its unbelievable effect, six pills were enough.
After that, Gu Ning took out two porcelain bottles with three power crystals in each, then handed them to Kang Shaojie.
Gu Ning carried her backpack everywhere, even though she just went downstairs for a meal, because she might need something from her telepathic eye space anytime. She couldn’t take them out without a cover.
“Thank you, Miss Gu. I’ll transfer the money to you in a while.” Kang Shaojie took the medicine, thanking Gu Ning again.
“You’re welcome. No need to take this medicine if you only have minor diseases, like a cold. Just take the medicines produced by Colaine. Take this pill according to the severity of your illness. If you take too many, it might become harmful instead. Tell your mother to take a pill first. After three days, check her condition. If she’s better, no need to take another pill. It’ll be too much. However, you can buy some nutritious tonics produced by Colaine. Although they aren’t as effective as this pill, it has great effects too. After taking them for a week or two, she should be fine,” said Gu Ning.
“Alright, I understand, thank you so much, Miss Gu,” said Kang Shaojie.
After that, they dispersed and Kang Shaojie left as well.
Because they had just finished a meal, Gu Ning didn’t want to have a nap right away, so they went to have a walk instead.
She wanted to ask Baili Zongxue out, but Baili Zongxue didn’t want to be the third wheel. She told Gu Ning to go have a walk with Leng Shaoting, while she would go back to her room and continue to play games.
Actually, it was fine to be the third wheel, but she didn’t want to ruin their date.
In that case, Gu Ning didn’t insist.
Because she went out with Kang Shaojie, the man who was following Kang Shaojie saw them.
