Before entering the Deng Family’s door, Old Master Deng was seen standing at the entrance holding a chicken feather duster.
Luo Qianqian shivered slightly: "Isn’t he going to beat ?"
"Beat you? If I didn’t bring you here, he’d beat !" Xiao Sui was nearly in tears; when had he ever seen his chief in such a hurry?
As a duty soldier for so many years, it was only in matters related to Luo Qianqian that he saw his chief anxious like a monkey... hence the saying ’monkey anxious’.
"Ah, Qhianqhian, you’re finally here." Elder Deng tossed the feather duster aside, and Xiao Sui breathed a sigh of relief.
Luo Qianqian chuckled and rushed up to help Elder Deng: "You scared Brother Sui while holding that feather duster, why so urgent?"
Upon hearing Luo Qianqian’s words, Elder Deng glared at Xiao Sui, then took Luo Qianqian into the house: "You say, how did you get back? I heard people say they’re checking everyone coming and going, are they checking you?"
Luo Qianqian paused but didn’t hide, nodding: "Yes, are the others back?"
Old Master Deng shook his head, showing unprecedented solemnity: "Do you know any news? Right now there’s no way to contact those people, even the embassy can’t reach them."
Luo Qianqian was silent for a mont: "Countless casualties."
Those re four words made Old Master Deng’s face turn ashen.
He sat down in the chair dejectedly: "How could it be? Didn’t they say..."
Seeing Old Master Deng’s deanor, Luo Qianqian sighed, took out another box from her bag and another box from her ring, handing it to Old Master Deng: "Grandpa Deng, I have nothing else to give, so you and Grandpa Xiu each take one. After exams, Tang Tianyi plans to stay sowhere else, so grudges can wait ten years."
Upon hearing Luo Qianqian’s words, Old Master Deng looked confused, unaware of what happened there, only knowing sothing went wrong, adding tension because Luo Qianqian went, and they knew the child.
Seeing Old Master Deng’s sowhat serious expression, Luo Qianqian chuckled: "Speaking of which, my family will need Grandpa Deng’s care; afraid soone will target them, so I won’t go back."
"What is really going on?" Upon hearing the Luo Family being targeted, Old Master Deng’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.
No matter how bad the Luo Family was, it was still the Luo Family, not to be trampled by anyone.
"Well, those Island country folks are ambitious, planning to catch everyone in one swoop, but they were completely defeated." Luo Qianqian’s face was calm, yet what she said shocked both Elder Deng and Xiao Sui.
"Not only inside Yingzhou Island but outside as well; Diwu Yan was still alive when we left, except for him, there are two people left." Luo Qianqian delivered another bombshell blow.
Old Master Deng was deadly serious, staring hard at Luo Qianqian: "Are your words reliable?"
The tremor in his voice and color of his face revealed his current unease.
Luo Qianqian nodded, pointing at the boxes: "Inside are my spoils of war."
Old Master Deng took a deep breath before speaking: "Let with..."
"Chief, that person’s call..." Xiao Sui answered a call, his face shocked.
That person?
Old Master Deng paused, stood up solemnly, and answered the call.
Luo Qianqian didn’t listen, deliberately lowered her head.
To make Old Master Deng express such an expression clearly showed the person was no ordinary character.
"Let’s go." Old Master Deng’s face was stern: "Call Tang Tianyi, soone wants to see you."
Luo Qianqian looked understanding: "Is it Grandpa Wei’s instructions?"
Old Master Deng was puzzled, then nodded: "Your things arrived promptly."
Luo Qianqian smiled bitterly, whether tily she wasn’t sure, but whether she could survive she felt questionable.
It felt like facing a confrontation rather than questioning this ti.
Tang Tianyi received the ssage, without hesitation arrived at the designated place where he saw Luo Qianqian sitting in the military vehicle.
So he readily got into the vehicle.
Luo Qianqian looked at him: "Did you tell Nuannuan about not eating dinner?"
Tang Tianyi nodded.
Eating dinner? Even returning to sleep was questionable.
Luckily, she contacted Tang Tianyi, who understood her words, imdiately called Qin Nuan, not forgetting to ask her to look after Feng Xi.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Sui drove to Fragrant Mountain?
Luo Qianqian and Tang Tianyi were both startled.
Having been in Capital City for so long, she didn’t know such a large building existed behind Fragrant Mountain?
Following Elder Deng into the building stunned, no communication throughout.
Underwent a full security check, even hair wasn’t overlooked, Luo Qianqian finally understood the feeling of having a bun shaped hairpin squeezed.
Successfully passing the security check, Luo Qianqian and Tang Tianyi followed Elder Deng into the guest room after he too underwent the security check.
Inside the guest room already sat an elderly gentleman, accompanied by a duty soldier, his air even surpassing Luo Xisi.
"Sit." The old gentleman gestured, looking amiable.
Luo Qianqian dumbfounded, still sat down.
"Which city are you planning to go?" The elder took a sip of tea, then looked at Luo Qianqian.
Elder Deng quickly nudged Luo Qianqian: "This is Fang Enze, Elder Fang."
Luo Qianqian’s face turned serious in surprise, quickly adjusting her attitude, touched her nose: "We’re planning to go where my mom’s side is, I’m familiar there."
"Good, what you told Elder Deng, don’t spread." The old chief nodded.
Luo Qianqian hurriedly nodded, barely began to sweat.
Facing authority truly required enormous courage.
The presence she could endure, but a re gesture from them could doom her family.
Moreover, she understood the gravity of this matter.
"The Nine Heavens Pavilion, soone will help you." The old chief continued.
Luo Qianqian’s cold sweat flowed, nodding.
"The Spirit of Jade in your grandfather’s hands..." The old chief’s gaze was intense.
Luo Qianqian paused, her expression slightly stiff.
"Will you sell it?"
The old chief continued.
Luo Qianqian felt like crying, sell? Dare she sell?
Forcing a smile: "If the old chief likes it, I can send it to you another day, or courier it... consider it a thank you for helping with Nine Heavens Pavilion."
The person behind the old chief glared: "Don’t insult soldiers!"
Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, how to price this thing? It was Green Spirit! Green Spirit!
"What do you want then?" A voice carried so dissatisfaction.
Obviously, they ca to her, now refusing money doesn’t suffice? Charge a little money, what’s it good for?
"Priced!" The person maintained a cold face.
Luo Qianqian avoided looking at Elder Deng or Tang Tianyi, an air of indifference: "Nine billion, nine hundred and ninety-nine million, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine."
The person widened their eyes, looking incredulous.
"The core of the Spirit of Jade, how much can be extracted from that tiny bit? The Spirit of Jade nurtures just a little over millions of years, could it be cheap?"
Having experienced the Spirit of Jade’s effect, Old Master Deng’s mouth twitched hearing about its core, even more, its price.
Tang Tianyi silently lowered his head, truly, only won and petty individuals are hard to deal with.
