Gu Jin couldn’t help but sigh, "A starved cal is still bigger than a horse." Even if the Wanqi Family is on a decline, their capabilities remain unmatched by other families.
She had been reborn from her past life and clearly rembered that even after twenty years, the Wanqi Family remained unshaken.
This shows that the strength of this family is not sothing that can be easily destroyed overnight.
Gu Jin gave a gentle nod to Wanqi Yihai, "I said before that if you showed sincerity, I would consider taking action. Now that you’ve shown your sincerity, I won’t go back on my word."
A slight light brightened Wanqi Yihai’s eyes, and his pale face didn’t look as bad anymore.
"You agreed?!"
Gu Jin said, "My grandfather acted as an advocate for your Wanqi Family, and Mr. Yu spoke for you this morning. It would be hard for to refuse."
She stood up and spread her hands, showing a helpless expression on her face.
A bright smile appeared on Wanqi Yihai’s pale face. He said excitedly, "Thank you, Little Ninth Master! When shall we set off?"
"The earliest we can leave is tomorrow. I have a little one at ho who needs looking after. Leaving for several days requires so reassurance."
Gu Jin trusted Wanqi Yihai, knowing that he was aware of An Mingji’s existence and understood how important the boy was to her.
Wanqi Yihai naturally understood and even suggested, "If Little Ninth Master is worried, Young Master An can co along."
"No need, he’s busy with his studies now."
Gu Jin didn’t plan to take An Mingji with her. With the recent dietary and dicinal supplents, the boy showed signs of breakthrough. She didn’t want An Mingji to be affected by whatever she might encounter in Beijing.
Having agreed to leave the next day, Gu Jin prepared to depart.
Wanqi Yihai escorted her, and as she exited the room, she turned back to give him a teasing glance. "We’re about the sa age, so stop calling Little Ninth Master. Just call by my na or Miss Gu."
"Miss Gu!"
Wanqi Yihai imdiately corrected himself.
Toward the savior of the Wanqi Family, he dared not call her by na.
Gu Jin gave a slight nod and turned to walk toward the elevator on the third floor.
...
Today, An Mingji was quite unhappy.
After dinner, Gu Jin inford him of the plans to go to Beijing the next day.
Ah Jin was leaving, and she wasn’t taking him along.
Just thinking about her going to Beijing with an uncertain return made the young boy’s face fall.
His face was tense, lips lightly pursed, and there was no hint of laughter in the depths of his charming eyes.
Even though he seed no different from when he was seriously studying, Gu Jin could still tell he was unhappy.
An Mingji’s discontent stemd from seeing Wanqi Yihai staring intently at Ah Jin from the balcony early that morning. The gaze was quite piercing.
Gu Jin noticed the boy’s unhappy deanor, feeling a twinge of discomfort in her heart.
This was the first ti An Mingji subtly expressed his displeasure like this.
Gu Jin smiled, "Little An wants to co too?"
An Mingji looked up, "I want to go!"
His response was straightforward and without hesitation.
Gu Jin walked over to him, ruffled his soft hair, and said tenderly, "Then co!"
She couldn’t bear to see An Mingji’s unhappy face; she preferred the satisfied look in his eyes.
Just like now, after she spoke, his captivating eyes seed to sparkle with countless stars, shining brightly and delightful to behold.
"Awoo awoo—"
The warm atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by the anxious cries of Duoduo.
Duoduo circled around them, expressing its dissatisfaction.
