Gu Qiaoqiao arrogantly raised her neck, then spoke, "Actually, I just tried it lightly, and I didn’t expect it to succeed."
"Does anyone else know?" Qin Yize suddenly asked.
Gu Qiaoqiao pondered for a mont. When she did this, she didn’t involve Xiao Wen because Xiao Wen was also seriously injured last ti and is currently recovering, often sleeping more than usual.
That’s why Xiao Wen is not by her side.
However, Dongfang Yu probably knows, that guy is as smart as a monkey, although he hasn’t asked, did he guess sothing that night?
Thus, the sowhat naive Gu Qiaoqiao said, "Nobody else knows, maybe Dongfang Yu can guess."
Qin Yize’s pupils shrank, what’s going on, why is there Dongfang Yu’s matter again?
At this ti, it was a red light, Qin Yize stopped the car, turned to look at Gu Qiaoqiao, gritted his teeth, cald his emotions, and asked, "What’s the matter with Dongfang Yu here?"
"Dongfang Yu went with to Lijing Ho that day."
"You’re with Dongfang Yu again?" Qin Yize gripped the steering wheel, "Didn’t I tell you not to get involved with that person?"
"Ah Ze, in so aspects, he’s much stronger than Xiao Wen. That day at Lijing Ho, he was standing guard for ." Gu Qiaoqiao boasted triumphantly.
Qin Yize fixedly looked at Gu Qiaoqiao, who innocently returned his gaze, and suddenly Qin Yize felt inexplicably silly.
Nobody knows better than him about Gu Qiaoqiao’s attitude towards Dongfang Yu, yet why is he still jealous here and lacking confidence, which is so unlike him.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Yize curled his lips, reached out, patted Gu Qiaoqiao’s head, and his tone suddenly softened, "Qiaoqiao, my Qiaoqiao is really amazing, even Dongfang Yu stands guard for you."
Gu Qiaoqiao chuckled.
Qin Yize also breathed a sigh of relief, just now he was overreacting. He knows best what kind of person Qiaoqiao is.
The green light ca on, and Qin Yize started the car, continuing towards Yubao Square.
The two chatted idly as usual, with nothing different from the norm, but San Qi behind them felt like his heart was turned upside down. Clearly, he had the advantage, but suddenly, he was countered, and in his view, their side was utterly defeated, because for the Gu Family, even losing Yubao Square wouldn’t make a big impact, they have other businesses, just the jade mine alone can keep them wealthy and carefree for life.
So even if they returned the paintings and lost Yubao Square, their lives wouldn’t change much.
But it’s different for him, what they have in their hands is a human life.
Now, even if they want to threaten with anyone from the Gu Family, it’s useless.
After all, as their confrontation with the Gu Family belongs to an inner sect matter among the Mystic Sect, since no case was reported about Yubao Square, but if they do kidnap soone from the Gu Family, the nature of the situation changes, then the Public Security of the Imperial Capital will get involved, their residence won’t be peaceful.
Among the Mystic Sect, there’s always a rule for those who partake in the Itinerant World, never to interact with military or police.
No matter where the rules won’t be broken, even now it’s the sa in the Central Plains.
So now they can only follow Gu Qiaoqiao’s instructions to restore half of Yubao Square’s antique gemstones.
Thinking of this, San Qi turned to look at the box on the passenger seat, his gaze heavy, not knowing what would happen to the Ruyi Ball?
If it really can’t be restored, not only would it be embarrassing, but the situation would also be harder to resolve. Gu Qiaoqiao belongs to those who act only for assured gain, if Yubao Square shows no improvent, she truly won’t help.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s bravery is bewildering, does she not know Sect Leader’s power, acting so recklessly? If Ouyang Rong really died, the Sect Leader would definitely annihilate the Gu Family and Qin Family.
Thinking of this, San Qi felt irritated, why didn’t he ntion the Sect Leader earlier?
He should have used the Sect Leader to scare this oblivious girl.
All the way, while lost in thoughts, San Qi followed closely behind the army-green military jeep, soon arriving at Yubao Square, and by now it was already noon.
Yubao Square remained closed like yesterday, with the sa sign at the door.
Pedestrians still moving back and forth on both sides, so peeking at Yubao Square, but with barred and plated windows, nothing is visible, those few might want to buy sothing, but eventually shook their heads and left disappointed.
San Qi got out of the car holding the box, while Gu Qiaoqiao had already knocked open the side door, it was naturally Zhang Yi who opened the door for her, seeing Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize return, followed by the middle-aged man nad San Qi holding a box, Zhang Yi seed to understand sothing but quickly stepped aside to let them in.
Then tightly closed the side door.
As Gu Qiaoqiao walked, she asked, "Uncle Zhang, where is my Great Grandfather?"
"The Old Patriarch is resting in the backyard, I just made a pot of tea for him, he’s probably drinking it there now."
Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, the Old Patriarch should know her style, seeing her chase out, he should know there’s no problem, especially since Qin Yize is with her.
This area is Yubao Square’s office area, where finance work, guest eting rooms, and rest rooms are located, there’s a corridor in the middle, and walking further inside, turning leads to the door behind Yubao Square’s hall, standing in front of the door, San Qi furrowed his brows and said, "I don’t want you to go in."
Gu Qiaoqiao imdiately refused without thinking, "Others can stay out, but I must go in."
"If you go in, this matter is canceled," San Qi seed persistent.
"Canceled then canceled, my Gu Family is wealthy enough not to care about a bit of loss," Gu Qiaoqiao said indifferently.
San Qi was stumped, why is Gu Qiaoqiao so impervious to persuasion?
He said fiercely, "Gu Qiaoqiao, do you not know the power of our Sect Leader?"
"Your Sect Leader is surely powerful, it’s evident from his daughter’s situation. And the thing in your hand is truly an extraordinary Magic Artifact." Gu Qiaoqiao confessed.
San Qi froze, montarily unsure how to respond.
He glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao, gritting his teeth and asked, "Miss Gu, aren’t you afraid our Sect Leader will retaliate against your Gu Family and Qin Family?"
"Retaliate, how? By annihilating my Gu Family and Qin Family?"
Gu Qiaoqiao straightforwardly retorted.
