Although it was already very late, Leng Shaoting had not slept yet in order to wait for Gu Ning's call.
Even though they had only been separated for a long time, Leng Shaoting already missed Gu Ning, wanted to talk to her and listen to her voice.
But knowing that Gu Ning was driving, Leng Shaoting didn't say anything more to Gu Ning, not wanting to disturb her driving.
After Gu Ning returned to "Century Heavenly City", he also took a shower and went to bed.
Because it rained the next day, Gu Ning didn't go for a morning run. He also called Qiao Ya not to make breakfast and just go out to eat.
So Qiao Ya stopped making breakfast. When it was almost time, she and Gu Ning went out and finished breakfast on the way to the company.
Gu Ning still spent the morning reading a book and had nothing to deal with.
At noon, Gu Ning called Shangguan Yang to greet him and asked him if he felt uncomfortable living in the place or if he was missing anything.
Although Leng Shaoting had arranged for Shitou to manage Shangguanyang's life and gave Shitou a bank card with a huge amount of money as Shangguanyang's living expenses, if Shangguanyang needed anything, he could just talk to Shitou.
But after all, they had just come into contact, and Gu Ning was worried that Shangguan Yang would be embarrassed to speak.
Since Leng Shaoting was away, Gu Ning naturally took care of Shangguan Yang on his behalf.
Fortunately, Shangguan Yang is a very adaptable person. There is nothing uncomfortable about him. On the contrary, there are many new things waiting for him to explore!
Gu Ning told Shangguan Yang that they would go see him in the afternoon.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Ning's mood suddenly became heavy.
Because Gu Ning was not just going to see Shangguan Yang, but had something to ask him, she was afraid that she would not get a good result.
In the afternoon, I still spent reading a book and did nothing else.
At five o'clock, Gu Ning left first and drove to the courtyard, leaving Qiao Ya to go back by herself.
Because there was a traffic jam on the road, it was already about ten minutes after six o'clock when Gu Ning arrived at the courtyard. Lao Zhang had already prepared the meal, but Shangguan Yang was not in a hurry to eat and waited for Gu Ning to come and eat together.
Although Shangguan Yang didn't feel bored when he was alone, he was still very happy when Gu Ning came to see him.
To be honest, Gu Ning felt that she was full very quickly when eating with Shangguan Yang, because seeing Shangguan Yang devouring food like a starving ghost reincarnated, she felt as if those things were eaten into her stomach.
People looked at the plum blossoms to quench their thirst, but she looked at Shangguan Yang to eat and quench her hunger.
After Gu Ning arrived, he had dinner with Shangguan Yang.
Shangguan Yang's appetite is still so big, one meal can feed five or six people.
Lao Zhang and Shi Shi also ate in the courtyard, but they just settled in the kitchen instead of eating at the same table as Shangguan Yang.
Leng Shaoting did not treat them badly, not only in terms of salary, but also in terms of food. They could eat whatever they liked without any restrictions, as long as they did their best when doing things. After eating, Shangguanyang asked Gu Ning to see the two moves he taught her yesterday.
Although Gu Ning had already typed it well yesterday, he still wanted to see if Gu Ning could still remember it completely after one day.
However, Gu Ning really remembered it completely, even though he didn't practice it in the middle time.
Photographic memory means photographic memory. If it is forgotten so easily, can it still be called photographic memory? Of course not.
Of course, Gu Ning only memorized the moves and executed them. Moreover, there were some skills that Gu Ning had not yet understood. That is to say, what kind of speed and strength is required for that move, which is also particular.
Because not all moves require brute force, some moves require flexibility and lightness.
Therefore, Shangguan Yang then taught Gu Ning what kind of moves, what kind of speed and what kind of strength.
After Shangguan Yang mentioned it once, Gu Ning remembered it, and Shangguan Yang nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad..."
But remembering is one thing, using it properly is another, so Gu Ning still needs to practice over and over again.
After practicing a few times, Gu Ning stopped and looked at Shangguan Yang, who was leaning on the rocking chair with his legs crossed and eating melon seeds, and said, "Grandpa Shangguan, I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter? Ask!" Shangguan Yang said.
"Can mortals be able to cultivate?" Gu Ning asked, his expression becoming serious in an instant.
Hearing this, Shangguan Yang paused and looked at her with slightly narrowed eyes: "Why are you asking this? Do you want to cultivate?"
Although Shangguan Yang knew very well in his heart, he still pretended to be unclear and asked.
"Yes, I want to cultivate, because Shaoting is a cultivator. Once his cultivation improves, he can live longer. But as a mortal, I only have a life span of a few decades. In this way, we can't be together. Yes. I want to be with Shaoting, so I also want to become a cultivator." Gu Ning said.
"Do you want to become a cultivator for him?" Shangguan Yang asked.
"Not bad," Gu Ning responded, with a very firm look on his face.
Shangguan Yang was silent for a while and then said: "Actually! That brat also asked me this question."
"What? Shaoting also asked you this question?" Hearing this, Gu Ning was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Leng Shaoting had already asked, but Leng Shaoting never told her!
Thinking of this, Gu Ning knew that the result was not good, otherwise, why didn't Leng Shaoting tell her!
"Yes," Shangguan Yang said, then hesitated for a moment, and then told Gu Ning what he had said to Leng Shaoting before: "Of course it is possible for mortals to cultivate, but it is very dangerous, and it is almost a narrow escape. It requires extremely strong willpower. If you endure it, you will succeed. If you fail, you will die. Therefore, mortals generally will not cultivate easily. Because almost everyone in the world of cultivation will have spiritual roots. When people with spiritual roots cultivate, It should be easier, but mortals do not have spiritual roots, so they need to undergo marrow cleansing to remove impurities from the body and clear the meridians. This is a process of hell on earth. Of course, if people with spiritual roots have mediocre qualifications, they also need to undergo marrow cleansing. It’s boneless, but with spiritual roots, the risk factor is less, and the chance of success is higher. But there are also more unsuccessful ones. And others can’t help with this matter, so you can only rely on yourself.”
When Gu Ning heard this, he knew that the reason why Leng Shaoting did not agree with him was that he asked Shangguan Yang about this matter. He was afraid that she would not be able to survive, so he did not dare to take the gamble.
Not to mention Leng Shaoting, even Gu Ning had some hesitation after hearing this.
She is no longer her former self. She had no ties to her past self, so she had no fear of disappointment. But now, she has too many worries.
