Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth
Chapter 520: Loss of Connection with the Cloth Shop
Gu Qingzhi knew that a person as outstanding as her brother would become the focus of everyone's attention wherever he went. However...
Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a little sad.
On the other hand, Gu Yan was unaware of his sister's sudden change of mood.
When he heard Gu Qingzhi ask to return to the inn, he simply thought that she might be tired from shopping, so he didn't think much about it and took her on the journey home.
As for the woman he just met, Gu Yan did not deliberately explain anything to his sister, because in his opinion, it was just a trivial matter and he did not take it to heart at all.
After returning to the inn, Gu Qingzhi felt more and more confused.
She even lost interest in the chocolate in her hand. After putting it on the table, she threw herself on the bed, hugging the soft quilt tightly. Like a little animal trapped in a cage, she rolled and fluttered on the bed restlessly.
Time passed minute by minute, and no one knew how much time had passed. Gu Qingzhi finally felt a deep weariness coming over her. She gradually closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
In the following days, Gu Qingzhi failed to see Gu Yan again.
One day, I learned by chance from Aunt Qin that he had been going out early and coming back late every day these days.
Hearing this, Gu Qingzhi's annoyance became even worse and more difficult to suppress.
Even the medical books that she loved and treasured in the past could hardly arouse Gu Qingzhi's interest now.
She put down the book in her hand in an upset mood and decided to go outside for a walk to relax.
Xiao Tao found that her wife had become extremely irritable and restless since she returned from the night of Chinese Valentine's Day.
However, what puzzled Xiao Tao was that her wife had clearly gone out to play with her husband that night, and they looked very happy and cheerful at the time.
But why did he look so depressed when he came back?
Did something unpleasant happen outside?
However, if going out shopping can make my wife smile again and improve her mood, that would be great.
So, accompanied by Xiaotao and two guards, Gu Qingzhi walked out of the inn and stepped into the bustling street.
At this time, they were in a cloth shop, carefully selecting various fabrics in front of the counter.
The shopkeeper's eyes were fixed on Gu Qingzhi, who was standing in front of the counter and carefully selecting materials, with excitement flashing in his eyes.
He keenly noticed that Gu Qingzhi did not seem very satisfied with the materials in front of her.
So, the shopkeeper, with a big smile on his face, came forward and said attentively: "Madam, there are many other kinds of fine materials stored in the warehouse behind our store!
How about this, you ask the maid beside you to go over and pick out some that suit your taste?"
At this moment, Gu Qingzhi, whose mind was not on the cloth in front of her, just answered casually, "Okay!"
After getting the approval, Xiao Tao followed the waiter to the warehouse obediently and began to select the fabrics carefully.
In a private room of a restaurant across from the cloth shop, a woman lowered her voice to another woman wearing a veil and reported: "Madam, they have already entered the cloth shop."
After hearing the news, the woman wearing a veil on her head nodded slightly, indicating that she was aware of the situation.
After a moment of silence, she slowly said in a low voice: "Let's go..."
But before turning around and leaving, she couldn't help but look back and cast a gloomy glance in the direction of the cloth shop.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, outlining a meaningful and slightly complacent smile.
Gu Qingzhi was sitting in the cloth shop, waiting anxiously for a long time, but Xiaotao didn't show up.
As time passed, the doubts in her heart grew stronger.
"Shopkeeper, how far is your storehouse from here? Why hasn't my maid returned after being gone for so long?"
Gu Qingzhi frowned and couldn't help asking a question to the shopkeeper who looked honest and simple in front of her.
The shopkeeper raised his head, his face also showing a look of bewilderment and confusion: "Madam, to be honest, my storehouse is not far away, it's just over there in the backyard!"
Hearing this, Gu Qingzhi's heart suddenly skipped a beat and an ominous premonition instantly came to her mind.
Could it be that……
Did Xiaotao encounter some accident?
Thinking of this, she could no longer sit idly by and said to the shopkeeper, "Please ask someone to lead the way and take me to the warehouse to have a look."
An indescribable joy flashed across the shopkeeper's eyes, but at this moment, Gu Qingzhi was so concerned about Xiao Tao's safety that he had no time to pay attention to these details.
The shopkeeper bowed to her respectfully, then said softly, "Madam, everyone in the shop has gone out to deliver the goods, so I'll take you there.
Please follow me, my lady, the storeroom is at the back."
Gu Qingzhi followed the shopkeeper closely, and as soon as she stepped into the warehouse door, a fragrance hit her nose.
The scent smelled very strange, which made her feel alert.
However, before she could react, everything in front of her eyes suddenly went dark. She heard a dull "bang" and fell backwards without any warning.
Almost at the same time, a black shadow flashed out from behind her like a ghost and steadily caught Gu Qingzhi who was about to fall to the ground.
The shopkeeper quickly rushed forward and carefully examined the unconscious Gu Qingzhi, muttering: "Oh my, this is top-quality stuff, please don't damage it!"
The black figure who caught Gu Qingzhi had no expression on his face, and said in a low and cold voice: "So, this is the 'big fish' we have been waiting for today."
As he spoke, he slowly shifted his gaze to the face of the woman in his arms.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes involuntarily, and he exclaimed in his heart: This is a high-end item that is rarely seen in recent years!
He turned to look at the shopkeeper with curiosity and asked, "Heizi, where did you find such a beautiful woman?"
Upon hearing this, the man known as Heizi suddenly had a smug smile on his face, and he chuckled, "This woman came to me on her own initiative. It seems that my luck has been very good these days!"
The shadow standing nearby nodded in agreement after hearing this: "Indeed, this beauty alone is enough to allow you to advance three levels.
I have never seen such a stunning beauty in my career, one in a million.”
