Chapter 2279: Have No Principles
It was impossible!
Before long, they figured out what had happened. Those women finally discovered the great effect of Kouzi, so they immediately came to buy it.
The saleswomen were very happy to see Kouzi become popular because they could make more commission.
The saleswomen at other cosmetics departments were greatly surprised when a lot of shoppers swarmed into Kouzi cosmetics department all of a sudden. Some of them got jealous too.
After a while, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went back to the hotel. After having a rest, He Hongjie sent some people over to pick up Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting.
He Siyang and He Siyin came to pick them up. When they saw Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting had put back on their real appearances, they felt it was more pleasant. Their real appearances were more attractive after all.
In the He family’s house, every member treated Gu Ning politely. Gu Ning had saved He Siyang and the whole He family.
If it hadn’t been for Gu Ning, the He family could have lost their casino to He Hongyuan and they would have become poor overnight.
After having a meal in the He family’s house, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting left. It was about 9 pm, so He Siyang and He Siyin drove them back to the hotel.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting would take the flight at 9:50 am tomorrow, so they would go to the airport after having breakfast.
He Siyang said that he would go to pick them up at 8 am tomorrow. It took about forty minutes to get to the airport from the hotel, so it was very suitable to set off at 8 am.
Gu Ning didn’t want to bother He Siyang and actually planned to let the hotel send them, but He Siyang insisted, so Gu Ning agreed in the end.
The next day, just before 8 am, He Siyang arrived at the hotel. After picking up Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, they went to the airport.
After three and a half hours, the plane landed at the airport in the capital.
When they walked out of the exit, it was already 1 pm. They went to get their car in the parking lot and went straight back to the city center. Afterwards, they went to dine.
However, when they were having the meal, it suddenly started snowing outside. Although it wasn’t heavy and wasn’t that beautiful, Gu Ning was still stunned.
This was the first time that she had felt a snowy winter after her reincarnation!
Although she had gone through a winter after her reincarnation, she was in the south back then and it hadn’t snowed in the south in many years.
She had been to the Kunlun Mountain and encountered heavy snow, but it was a different feeling. The Kunlun Mountain was a snow mountain landform, and it was covered by snow for two-thirds of the year.
“What? Do you like snow?” Leng Shaoting asked.
“Not really. It’s just really rare.” Gu Ning came back to her senses.
“It snows heavily every winter in the capital. The Imperial Garden is very beautiful in the snow with plum blossoms everywhere. Many photographers will go there to take photos every year. If the snow gets heavier, we can visit there when I have time,” said Leng Shaoting.
Although he had little interest in the sights, he was more than willing to take Gu Ning there if Gu Ning enjoyed the snow. As long as Gu Ning was happy, he would be satisfied.
“Sure!” Gu Ning said, “But I have a test in a week. If the snow gets heavier these two days, we can visit the park together. I’ll go back to school after the weekend. I must focus on my studies before the test. I’m a student after all, but I barely go to school classes. Even if I have a photographic memory, I can’t get knowledge without learning.”
Gu Ning felt a little guilty. She indeed spent little time in school and a semester was already about to pass.
“Great, I believe that you can do it!” Leng Shaoting stroked Gu Ning’s head and comforted her.
“Pfttt.”
As soon as they finished, someone snorted with laughter from the table next to them. “Photographic memory? Stop bragging!”
It was a woman about forty years old. Although she didn’t say that to Gu Ning, but another woman across from her at the same table, it was obvious that she was mocking Gu Ning.
Gu Ning slightly raised her eyebrow. She wasn’t mad, but was displeased.
Leng Shaoting, however, got angry at once. He couldn’t stand the woman’s tone when she laughed at Gu Ning, because Gu Ning really had a photographic memory. However, even if he was angry, he didn’t bother to argue with that woman.
However, another woman chimed in. “Right, young people nowadays pay very little attention to studying. They fool around every day. They have no principles.”
Saying that, she gave Gu Ning a meaningful glance, which implied that she was talking about Gu Ning.
Gu Ning sat facing them, so the woman could see her face clearly.
The moment the woman saw Gu Ning, she was struck dumb for a second, not because she recognized Gu Ning, but because she was stunned by Gu Ning’s beauty.
Afterwards, the woman said acidly, “Especially those beautiful girls. They could have a sexual relationship with different men. I heard they’re even willing to be any man’s mistress just for money!”
Jealousy abounded in women of all ages. Women who were mean and easily got jealous would always be jealous of beautiful women no matter how old they were.
Leng Shaoting was furious this time, so was Gu Ning.
Even though the woman didn’t say that to her face, it was still unacceptable. It was a humiliation to Gu Ning and she wasn’t that tolerant.
“Leave it to me.” Gu Ning patted Leng Shaoting’s hand to comfort him.
No matter what, she couldn’t let Leng Shaoting handle it. He was a man after all, and onlookers might think that they were being unreasonable if he stood out for her.
Normally, men were the strong, while women were the weak. If a man argued with a woman, it was always the man’s fault. Therefore, Gu Ning told Leng Shaoting to leave it to her and she would deal with it on her own.
Leng Shaoting understood that Gu Ning could defend herself, so he didn’t stop her. He only felt a little uncomfortable since Gu Ning was humiliated right in front of his face.
The next second, Gu Ning stood up and walked to the next table.
“Were you talking about me?” Gu Ning looked at the woman who just attacked her. Both her tone and attitude were very calm, showing no anger.
