Mr. Gu's little darling is incredibly cool!

Hey! You're still alive? Why didn't you come looking for us?

The number is encrypted, and it sends text messages.

Lu Qingyun glanced at it for a few seconds and knew without asking who had sent the message. She picked up her phone and replied.

[Little brat, don't ask so many questions.]

Yarman replied quickly, sending two more text messages shortly after.

[Greg told me you personally texted him that day. How could you do that? Why didn't you text me first?]

I'm very angry right now.

A little brat is indeed a little brat.

She rubbed her temples and replied, "I'll go to the US sometime. When we meet, I hope you're with Greg, or you've seen the consequences."

After sending the message, she glanced at the time. It was already quite late, but she had just woken up and wasn't sleepy at all.

She walked around with her phone for a few moments, then took her laptop to the study.

……

The next day.

The medical books of the Ouyang family have been circulating widely on the dark web, and even some things have happened in the United States. Gu Jinming has been so busy these past few days that Lu Qingyun has only seen him a few times a day.

She changed into a simple outfit, casually tied her black hair up, pulled her baseball cap down, put on a mask, slung her bag over her shoulder, and headed out.

However, when she reached the door, she was surprised to see Tang Qin waiting for her there.

She raised an eyebrow, her beautiful eyes filled with interest, and took out her phone to send a message to Gu Jinming.

You're having Tang Qin follow me?

Gu Jinming replied quickly, [?]

It seems he was unaware of this.

"Young lady."

When Tang Qin met Lu Qingyun's slightly cool eyes, he unconsciously swallowed.

His aura is almost on par with that of Master Jin.

"what's up?"

Lu Qingyun put her phone back in her pocket and put on her earphones as she walked forward.

“Young Madam, I apologize for what happened before. I looked down on you back then, thinking that you came from a small place and were not good enough for Master Jin. But after spending these past few days together, I realize that I was narrow-minded. I don’t ask for your forgiveness, Young Madam, but only for peace of mind.”

After hearing his explanation, Lu Qingyun understood his purpose. She glanced at Tang Qin indifferently, her brows relaxing slightly.

"Excuse me, please."

Tang Qin didn't know if Lu Qingyun had forgiven him or not, and his eyes were filled with doubt. He moved a little to the side, and seeing that she was about to leave, Tang Qin pursed his lips and said to her, "Young Madam, where are you going? Let me take you there."

"Chengyuan Mansion".

"Alright, young madam, please get in the car."

Tang Qin let out a soft "Ah," his tone becoming noticeably lighter.

The young mistress's willingness to let me deliver it suggests she has forgiven me.

The young mistress is so wonderful, unlike Miss Shan Li at all.

If Tang Qin had a tail, it would probably be wagging by now.

Chengyuanfu sounds nice, but it's actually just a restaurant. Because of its good security, food, and privacy, this restaurant is extremely famous in Beijing and has even opened several branches.

Many celebrities and big bosses dine here.

Lu Qingyun came because Yuan Yu invited her to dinner.

After Tang Qin parked the car, he opened the door for Lu Qingyun. "Young Madam, would you like me to wait for you outside?"

Having experienced what had happened before, Tang Qin consciously refrained from asking any unnecessary questions.

"No need, you go do your thing."

She has other things to do later, and it would be inconvenient for her if Tang Qin came along.

Tang Qin responded with an "okay," and after watching Lu Qingyun go inside, he turned around, got into his car, and drove away.

Lanjin Villa.

Gu Jinming fell silent as he looked at the unanswered messages.

Why didn't she reply?

Duanmu Yi carefully moved back a little closer to Zhou Ming and asked in a low voice, "Have you noticed that Master Jin has been acting a little strange lately?"

"He stared at that phone for a full three minutes. Was he waiting for a message from someone?"

Gu Jinming was acting rather strangely, and Zhou Ming naturally noticed it as well. The two of them secretly observed him with curious glances.

"Hehe, in my opinion, he's definitely waiting for his sister-in-law's message."

As he spoke, Duanmu Yi held up one finger and shook it.

Just then, footsteps sounded at the door.

Tang Qin's usually composed face was adorned with a lighthearted smile, and Tang Meng could even hear his younger brother humming a tune.

What the hell!

See you soon!

"Hey, our little Qinqin looks especially happy today! Tell us so your brothers can be happy too," Duanmu Yi said with a smile.

Tang Qin took a step back as she was stared at by four pairs of eyes.

He coughed strategically, "I..."

"You went to see Qingqing."

This is not a question, but a statement of fact.

Tang Qin thought to himself that Lu Qingyun might have told him about this, so he nodded and said, "I went to see the young mistress today to explain what happened before, and then I took her to Chengyuan Mansion."

Gu Jinming understood.

No wonder Lu Qingyun asked me that question just now.

Chengyuan Mansion?

Zhou Ming and Duanmu Yi exchanged glances.

The fact that Lu Qingyun was able to go to Chengyuan Mansion proves that she is not as the rumors suggest.

"Master Jin, the person said yesterday that the item has been delivered. I'm going down to get it now."

Tang Meng's phone rang, and after reading the message, he reported it to Gu Jinming.

Gu Jinming hummed in agreement and sent a message to Lu Qingyun.

Tang Qin told me you're at Chengyuan Mansion. Use the card I gave you last time to pay the bill, don't be stingy.

After sending the message, he waited a few seconds before putting his phone down and continuing to look at the document.

-

Chengyuan Mansion.

As soon as Lu Qingyun stepped into the store, the waiter at the door saw her and looked at her with a solemn expression. "Miss Lu, please come in. Please stay in the same room as last time."

Before he could even utter the words "Hall Master," Lu Qingyun's dark eyes fixed on him, forcibly changing his address to "Miss."

Room 310.

"The room that Miss Yuan booked?"

Lu Qingyun nodded.

The waiter led the way, deliberately lowering his voice, "Master, when did you arrive in the capital? Why didn't we hear anything?"

"How's business lately?"

"Hehe, business is booming. Sometimes we're so busy in the kitchen that we don't even have time to drink water."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingyun nodded in satisfaction, and the two arrived at room 310 as they talked.

The waiter raised his hand to knock on the door, and the door opened just then.

A pretty, gentle-looking girl with long hair looked at Lu Qingyun with a slightly expectant gaze.

"Miss Lu?"

Her voice was soft and gentle, which was quite distinctive.

Lu Qingyun hummed in agreement, and Yuan Yi stepped aside, saying, "My apologies, Miss Lu, please come in."

Only after Lu Qingyun went inside did the waiter leave with his head bowed and eyes lowered.

Little did the waiter know that at that moment, he was clutching the hem of his shirt, inwardly screaming like a groundhog.

Ahhhhh!

I've finally met the sect leader!

Was I not very enthusiastic just now?

However, the senior said that the head of the hall is rather low-key, and being too enthusiastic would offend her.

The waiter returned to the front desk, feeling conflicted.

Lu Qingyun was stared at by Yuan Yi for a full thirty seconds before slowly uttering only a few words, "Your friend."

Finally, Yuan Yu couldn't stand it anymore and said to Lu Qingyun apologetically, "Qingqing, my sister isn't very talkative, please don't mind her, she's a bit introverted. Um, she meant she wanted you to help thank your friend."

Lu Qingyun thought it was something serious, but it was a simple matter.

Nodding, Lu Qingyun agreed.

With this agreement, the atmosphere eased, and Yuan Yi gradually became more talkative, soon chatting with Lu Qingyun about medicine.

The waiter then brought out all the dishes, including a few extra dishes that they hadn't ordered before.

Yuan Yu glanced at them and said, "Hello, these dishes weren't ordered by us. Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
