Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School

As soon as Zhang Jingnan received Leng Shaoting's call, he agreed.

Although Leng Shaoting only asked him to tell the policeman on duty to let him in, Zhang Jingnan still went to do it in person.

After that, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went there.

Because they were in the same district, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting soon arrived. Zhang Jingnan had only arrived two minutes earlier than them.

When they saw Zhang Jingnan, neither Gu Ning nor Leng Shaoting were surprised.

He Yuanhao was already taken to the interrogation room, so Zhang Jingnan guided Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting there once they arrived.

In the interrogation room, Leng Shaoting told Zhang Jingnan that he needed to ask He Yuanhao something in private, so Zhang Jingnan left with the other policemen and waited outside.

After that, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went in. Now, only the three of them were in the interrogation room.

He Yuanhao had already admitted to the crime, so he had an absent look on his face. He didn't expect that someone could help him out now, because it was over.

Gu Ning took out the wooden box. Before she said anything, He Yuanhao saw it and exclaimed. "You took my jade pendant!"

"Where did you get it?" Gu Ning asked.

"I bought it," said He Yuanhao, sounding displeased, because Gu Ning's question made him feel that he had stolen it from somewhere. Even if he had broken the law, he wasn't a thief. After all, he wasn't poor.

"Where did you get it?" Gu Ning continued.

"From the antique street," said He Yuanhao, sounding even more displeased.

He disliked antiques, but he loved jade jewelry. Sometimes, he would go to the antique street with his friends. When he saw the jade pendant and made sure that it was real, he bought it. It actually cost him a lot of money!

"Did you buy it from a stand or a store?" Gu Ning asked.

"From a stand. Hey, you asked me so many questions about it. Are you suspicious of me for stealing it or what?" He Yuanhao lost patience.

"I just want to find the original owner of this jade pendant," said Gu Ning.

However, if he bought it from a stand, it would be hard to find the evil cultivator who owned it before.

If so, Gu Ning gave up.

Afterwards, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting stopped asking him more questions and walked out.

"Hey, my jade pendant!" He Yuanhao shouted to their backs.

"There is something wrong with this jade pendant. I'll keep it for now. Even if I return it to you, do you think it's still useful for you?" Gu Ning said, then left without looking back.

Since the evil force around the jade pendant hadn't gone away yet, it would only harm He Yuanhao if Gu Ning returned it to him. Besides, given He Yuanhao's current situation, the jade pendant was useless.

Even though he wasn't sentenced to death, he would have to spend the rest of his life in jail. If he dared to wear this jade pendant in the prison, he could be robbed immediately.

"You…" He Yuanhao was mad, but what Gu Ning said was true. He didn't know how to argue with her over that, so he had to watch them leave.

…

Zhang Jingnan didn't ask Leng Shaoting what they had asked He Yuanhao about. He just walked them to their car, not leaving until they were gone.

Back at home, Gu Ning told Jing Yunyao the result. Jing Yunyao also agreed that they should stop investigating it. If they encountered evil cultivators, they would do their best to get rid of them, but they wouldn't search for evil cultivators of their own accord.

After that, they went to bed. The next day, they got up early in the morning and went to the airport after packing.

Gu Ning called someone over to drive them to the airport. Although she would come back in about a week and needed to use a car at that time, the car would quickly get dirty if it was parked at the airport for a week. Therefore, Gu Ning didn't drive or leave her car in the parking lot at the airport.

She would call someone to pick her up when she came back.

Because Gu Ning booked her plane ticket a little late, she couldn't sit in the same row as Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao. Therefore Jing Yunyao exchanged her seat with Gu Ning so that she could sit with Leng Shaoting.

Gu Ning declined at first, because she felt it wasn't necessary. As Leng Shaoting's mother, Jing Yunyao wanted to sit with Leng Shaoting as well. However, Jing Yunyao insisted on exchanging seats, so Gu Ning gave in afterwards. Luckily, her seat wasn't far from theirs. There were only two rows between them, and they could easily see each other by turning around.

When they boarded, they found their seats before the other passengers. They sensed cultivators nearby just as the boarding almost finished. There should be two cultivators.

The next moment, they exchanged a glance with a serious expression.

They didn't want to be discovered right now, but they couldn't do anything about it if other cultivators noticed them.

Without delay, Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to look outside.

The moment she saw them, she frowned.

"It's Jing Yunyan," said Gu Ning, but she didn't know the old man who stood with Jing Yunyan. She had never met the old man before, but he seemed to be a master.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting also frowned, but showed no hatred, because the grudge between Jing Yaorong's family and Jing Yunyao had nothing to do with him.

He disliked Jing Yunyan only because Jing Yunyan was a member of the Jing family.

"Exchange seats with mother. Tell mother to sit with me. Put on a mask and hat. We can greet them as our master's disciples," said Gu Ning.

"Sure." Leng Shaoting thought that it was the only solution, so he immediately stood up to exchange seats with Jing Yunyao. At the same time, he put on a mask and hat.

"Who is it?" Seeing Leng Shaoting coming over, Jing Yunyao asked. She knew that Gu Ning had a pair of Jade Eyes, so Gu Ning must know who was coming.

"Jing Yunyan," said Leng Shaoting.

Hearing that, Jing Yunyao became serious.

"Ningning said that we should exchange seats. You can go sit with her," said Leng Shaoting.

"Great." Jing Yunyao agreed and went to sit with Gu Ning at once. Afterwards, she took the mask and hat Gu Ning gave her, then put them on.

"Who's with Jing Yunyan?" Jing Yunyao asked.

"An old man, but I don't know who he is. I've never met him before," said Gu Ning.

"Given his level, I bet he should be an elder of the Jing family," said Jing Yunyao.

Although elders of the Jing family hadn't physically bullied her, they disdained and hurled abuse at her as everyone else did in the Jing family. As a result, even though Jing Yunyao didn't hate them, she didn't want to see them. However, she wouldn't have conflicts against them either.
