Wang Lanya's eyes widened with anger, she stared at Lu Wanqing angrily, and shouted loudly, "Lu Wanqing, who are you scolding!"

Lu Wanqing didn't even look at Wang Lanya.

Wang Lanya's brain is indeed not very smart. Could it be that she couldn't see that she was speaking for her?
Gu Xiao was extremely dissatisfied with Wang Lanya's reaction.

He glanced coldly, and just about to raise his hand, Wang Lanya immediately realized something, her words softened immediately, and she nodded repeatedly: "Master Jiu, she's right, how dare I use this method to murder her."

As she said that, Wang Lanya also put on a flattering smile, which was completely different from her arrogance and aloofness just now.

Gu Xiao snorted coldly with disdain, and looked back at Lu Wanqing: "As your adoptive mother, she has always treated you very badly. Even if she didn't do the medicine man thing, she would never be ignorant."

Lu Wanqing shook her head: "Her methods are just some shady little methods. Things like this require long-term and careful planning, and the executor must be bold and careful. She is far from qualified. Ninth Master still let her go Bar."

This Wang Lanya was no longer stupid enough to refute Lu Wanqing, but stared at Gu Xiao pleadingly.

The latter was silent for a long time, and asked in a low voice: "Why did you help her? You have been angry with her for so many years, don't you want to vent your anger?"

Lu Wanqing immediately shook her head: "Of course!"

If possible, Lu Wanqing would like to eat Wang Lanya alive.

But this is not a reason for her to deliberately frame Wang Lanya.

Wang Lanya's mother and daughter have no bottom line, but she, Lu Wanqing, still has one!

Lu Wanqing told Gu Xiao her reasons, and added a sentence at the end: "Master Jiu, what's more, if you get involved in the current situation, it will only be detrimental to you. I would rather never know what happened to the medicine man, or I don't want to drag you into the water."

Gu Xiao immediately turned his head away, staring at Lu Wanqing in astonishment.

The two looked at each other.

Xu Shi saw the surprise in Gu Xiao's eyes, and Lu Wanqing slightly raised the corners of her lips, forcing a smile.

She is a centenarian!

Years of experience in carrying out missions has made Lu Wanqing used to speaking directly.

But she didn't know, her simple words made Gu Xiao feel mixed feelings.

Who would have thought that the ninth master of the Gu family, who seemed to have a lot of glory outside, would have heard the only words of concern for himself in these years from Lu Wanqing's mouth?

After a long pause, Gu Xiao finally nodded to the bodyguard.

The bodyguard understood and pulled Wang Lanya out of her depression.

Lu Wanqing looked down, and saw that the water in the sink had covered Wang Lanya's calf, and her leg was so wet that the water was still dripping down the skin.

"Tell the Lu family that you can come and lead someone." Gu Xiao said indifferently.

The bodyguard agreed and pushed Wang Lanya out of the room.

When passing by Lu Wanqing, Wang Lanya not only did not show any thanks, but instead stared at Lu Wanqing resentfully, the corners of her mouth moved, as if she said something, but Lu Wanqing did not hear it.

But she can guess without even thinking about it, it's probably some stupid words like "I won't let you go".

She doesn't take these threats to heart.

The room was quiet for a long time, Gu Xiao turned his head to the side, stared at Lu Wanqing, slowly retracted his gaze, lowered his head, and said softly, "I'm sorry."

These three words came without beginning or end, which made Lu Wanqing stunned for a moment.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Xiao.

"I promised you that I would help you find out about the Yaoren. After so many days of investigation, there was no result."

A rare wave appeared on Gu Xiao's face.

He hung his hands in front of him, his fingers slightly entwined, looking as helpless as a child.

Facing Gu Xiao like this, Lu Wanqing's heart trembled slightly.

She couldn't help but stepped forward, squatted beside Gu Xiao, and reached out to hold his wrist.

The slender index finger tapped the back of Gu Xiao's hand twice.

Lu Wanqing raised her head and looked at Gu Xiao: "Jiu Ye can investigate this matter for me and give Wang Lanya some punishment, which is unprecedentedly gentle to me. Before Jiu Ye, no one has ever treated me like this."

The two looked at each other.

Lu Wanqing stared at Gu Xiao.

She thought she was just saying what was in her heart, nothing special.

But meeting Gu Xiao's eyes, Lu Wanqing's heart tightened suddenly, as if something was gradually spreading along her heart.

The numbness and numbness quickly dissipated from the limbs, making Lu Wanqing feel like he was being struck by electricity.

She shivered, stood up immediately, subconsciously took two steps back, her throat slipped quickly, and looked at Gu Xiao nervously.

Even Lu Wanqing herself didn't know what was going on!
It was the first time she experienced the feeling of rapid heartbeat!

Although the two kept a distance, their eyes fell on each other and they never left.

"Jiuye." Su Ye's voice came from outside the room.

Gu Xiao coughed twice, and turned his head away immediately.

He put one hand on his chin, rubbed it twice, and then he stabilized his mind: "Come in."

Su Ye strode in.

Seeing Lu Wanqing standing aside who was also at a loss, Su Ye was puzzled.

He went straight to Gu Xiao's side and said in a low voice, "Chen Jie has arrived at the pier."

Gu Xiao's expression suddenly turned cold, and he returned to his usual cold-faced Hades look: "Understood. Where's the goods?"

"Chen Jie brought them all. He called and said he wanted to meet Master Jiu and Master Lu before handing over."

While Su Ye was talking, he turned his eyes sideways to look at Lu Wanqing.

He couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Compared with Chen Jie, these demons and ghosts in Yuncheng are nothing compared to the big witch.

Whether it is Gu Yunzhong, Yang Wenshuo, or today's Wang Lanya, the prestige of the Ninth Master is like thunder in front of them.

But Chen Jie is completely different!
In recent years, the two young masters of Gu's family have attracted the most attention, one is Gu Xiao, and the other is Chen Jie.

Gu Xiao relied on his ability to stand out from the younger generation of the Gu family.

And Chen Jie was able to get to where he is today, thanks to his ruthlessness and his vicious tricks no matter who he faces!

Su Ye was worried that if Lu Wanqing still dealt with Chen Jie the same way he dealt with people like Yuncheng, he might fall into Chen Jie's hands sooner or later.

At that time, even Jiu Ye would not be able to save her.

The protagonist who was worried by Su Ye was not thinking about it at the moment.

Lu Wanqing hung her head, folded her hands in front of her body, her heart seemed to be about to pop out of her throat.

Her mind was full of thoughts about what happened just now?

Why do I look so nervous when I look at Gu Xiao?
It's true that he is the ninth master of the Gu family, but in his own eyes, isn't he a brat?
I am a centenarian, why am I still afraid of his eyes?
