Chapter 1597: Totally Different Att.i.tudes

“I understand why the owner of the restaurant turned to her connections for help. She was just protecting herself and her business,” Gu Ning said.

“You’re right.” Shangguan Yang agreed.

When they arrived at City Ge, it was almost 5 pm, so they headed straight to the Public Security Bureau.

The address of Shangguan Yang’s ID card was where Leng Shaoting’s siheyuan was located, and his age was set as 68.

The policeman was shocked when he saw that Shangguan Yang’s home address was in the city center of the capital. In addition, it was obvious that the place he lived in was a separate building from other constructions.

The policeman knew that Shangguan Yang must be an important figure, so he quickly finished the legal procedures.

When they were gone, the policeman’s colleague joked, “Xiao Zhang, you were really efficient just then.”

“Is the old man very important?” another policeman said.

“You’re right. The old man must be either super rich or powerful. He lives in a separate building in the city center of the capital!”

“What?”

“Really?”

“Wow, a separate building in the city center of the capital must be worth over a billion yuan!”

“…”

Leng Shaoting’s siheyuan was indeed worth over a billion yuan.

Gu Ning went to buy a smartphone for Shangguan Yang later. It wasn’t convenient for them to park the car outside the smartphone store, so Leng Shaoting went to park the car in front of a nearby hotel.

Gu Ning and Shangguan Yang got out of the car together and walked into the smartphone store.

When they walked inside, no salesmen greeted or served them, because they didn’t look rich at all. Gu Ning was merely a young girl, while Shangguan Yang was too old, and although Shangguan Yang was wearing an expensive coat, it didn’t fit him very well.

Besides, City Ge was much warmer than the Kunlun Mountain, so he looked quite strange. If he couldn’t afford appropriate clothes, he couldn’t afford a smartphone.

All the salesmen and saleswomen in the smartphone store had the same opinion.

What was worse, Shangguan Yang kept looking around with curiosity as if he had never seen a store like that before. He behaved like a poor man who had never been to a city before. And although Gu Ning was pretty, it didn’t mean that she was rich.

All in all, Gu Ning and Shangguan Yang were an old poor man and a poor granddaughter in their eyes.

Those salesmen and saleswomen had seen poor people like them before, and they were unwilling to serve poor people. They were completely biased.

Gu Ning was displeased with their att.i.tude, but said nothing, because they didn’t do anything to hurt them.

“Grandpa Shangguan, you can choose whichever one you want,” said Gu Ning.

“Wonderful!” Shangguan Yang was excited.

“Oh, I want this one. This one looks good.” Shangguan Yang picked a smartphone of the latest version. Because he didn’t have a sense of today’s currency, he didn’t know whether it was expensive or not. Shangguan Yang was merely like an old kid.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were both very rich after all, so they didn’t care about the price. In addition, Shangguan Yang was Leng Shaoting’s private teacher and he had taught Leng Shaoting many important skills, which were priceless.

A smartphone wouldn’t be very expensive, and it was nothing in Gu Ning’s eyes. As long as Shangguan Yang wanted it, she could buy any of the phones in the store.

“Great, we’ll buy this one, but we need to wait for a moment,” Gu Ning said. She was unwilling to let those sn.o.bbish salesmen serve them, and decided to wait for a while until other good saleswomen were free.

“Sure.” Shangguan Yang listened to Gu Ning.

However, once the two sn.o.bbish salesmen heard their conversation and found that they were really going to buy an expensive phone, one of them walked towards Gu Ning and Shangguan Yang.

“Welcome to our store, what can I do for you?” The salesman smiled at them, and his att.i.tude completely changed.

“No need, I can wait for another salesman’s service,” Gu Ning said.

Shangguan Yang didn’t understand why Gu Ning rejected this salesman’s service, but he said nothing about it, because he knew that Gu Ning was a mature and sensible girl.
