Chapter 571: Chapter 571: The Huge Bang
Having spoken, she closed the car door, stepped on the gas, and sped away from the Qin Family Old Residence’s entrance like an arrow released from its bow.
She quickly disappeared from sight.
Gu Qiaoqiao stood by the roadside, where the smoke still billowed in the Northwest direction.
By this ti, people nearby had also co outside.
Shen Manru and Qin Xuan hadn’t finished work yet.
Qin Xiaoyu and Grandma Qin, too, stepped out curiously.
They had apparently heard sothing just now.
Then they saw Gu Qiaoqiao standing at the doorway, lost in thought.
Qin Xiaoyu quickly called out, “Sister-in-law, what was that noise just now?”
“It seems like there was an explosion at the chemical plant…”
“The chemical plant exploded? My goodness, could that affect us here?” Qin Xiaoyu was startled.
Gu Qiaoqiao hurriedly reassured her, “It’s okay, it won’t affect us here…”
Because such an incident had occurred, the situation would soon be under control.
The residents of this area had almost all co out.
They looked worriedly in that direction.
Then, three hours later, the smoke had diminished a lot.
However, Qin Yize hadn’t co back yet.
The next morning, Qin Yize gave Gu Qiaoqiao a call and told her the situation was very serious; he couldn’t join her on the trip to Xinjiang.
Afterwards, Qin Yize hoped Gu Qiaoqiao would postpone their plans.
Or perhaps go during the winter vacation.
Or wait until this matter was over.
Moreover, Qin Yize’s voice was very rushed when he spoke.
Clearly, he had a task at hand and was in a hurry, but still needed to explain things to Gu Qiaoqiao.
Gu Qiaoqiao then rembered the Red Spirit Jade Marrow in the Treasure Room.
Because the Spiritual Energy was so abundant, it had already started affecting the Gu Family.
Everything in excess is not good.
The clearest sign of this was a begonia tree in Gu Garden, which, despite having shed all its leaves, had burgeoned anew.
That begonia tree was planted in front of the window of the study that housed the Treasure Room.
Being the closest to the Treasure Room, it also exhibited the most noticeable change.
Other areas were sowhat better.
Nevertheless, there were also subtle anomalies that were hard to notice.
As for whether there would be other more astonishing changes in the future, Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t know.
And Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t wish to expose the Gu Family to danger once again.
So she had to go this ti.
Gu Qiaoqiao softly spoke up, “It’s okay, I’m going with Uncle Gu this ti, and I have a reason I must go. You just focus on your work now. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself.”
Qin Yize was silent for a mont before he said, “That place is not currently safe. I will have Luh Fei bring you sothing tonight. You must be cautious and return as soon as you finish your work.”
“Mhm, I know, don’t worry. I’ll call you later,” Gu Qiaoqiao then felt sowhat sheepish.
How could she call him later?
Still, Qin Yize gave a grunt of acknowledgnt before hanging up the call.
Clearly, he too was very busy on his end.
Gu Qiaoqiao lingered in the study for a while, then started to go back to her room to pack her belongings.
She also told Grandma Qin that she was going on a business trip.
After all, it was for matters related to Yubao Square.
Grandma Qin was already accustod to Gu Qiaoqiao’s comings and goings.
Still, she gave her a few words of caution.
In the evening, Luh Fei arrived.
After handing an army canvas bag to Gu Qiaoqiao, he reiterated Qin Yize’s ssage: Doctor Qin asks you to take care of yourself, don’t overdo it, and co back right after you’re done…
