Chapter 296: Being Lazy Even When Choosing a Fake Name
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su Haisheng looked a bit embarra.s.sed and said, “It wasn’t me, it was the young man surnamed Jun next to you.”
Zhao Hanqiu turned his head in surprise to look.
Seeing Gu Qingluan wearing a silver mask by the bed, he couldn’t hide his astonishment.
He must be surprised by how young the other person is.
But he didn’t question it and gratefully thanked Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan offered a faint smile and advised, “You’ve just detoxified, and your body is still recovering. Please take some rest and avoid overexerting yourself.”
Zhao Hanqiu nodded and appreciated her calm demeanor, “Young man, may I know your name?”
“I’m surnamed Jun, with a single name, Qing, like the fresh green.”
Jun Qing?
The man with the black mask who had been pushed to the edge of the crowd chewed on this name, his lips involuntarily curved up.
Even choosing a fake name was done lazily.
“Jun Qing, my name is Zhao Hanqiu, and I am truly grateful to you for saving my life. If you ever decide to craft your life’s profound artifact, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. 1 would gladly forge it for you without any charge. Furthermore, if you require any a.s.sistance with anything else, please feel free to ask; 1 will readily lend a hand.”
Zhao Hanqiu was a master of artifact forging in the Refining Sect, and his profound artifacts were of excellent quality, and in high demand, with orders reportedly booked for three years in advance.
This Mr. Jun had really hit the jackpot!
But considering why Master Zhao treated him like this, they didn’t feel bitter anymore.
They couldn’t say anything because they did not possess the skill to save Master Zhao.
Gu Qingluan nodded with a smile, then turned her gaze to Su Ziyin, who had a displeased expression. She calmly said, “You lost.”
He Lianjun laughed heartily, “Little girl, you haven’t forgotten our bet from earlier, have you? Brother Jun has detoxified the poison, so you have to apologize to us!”
Su Ziyin’s face stiffened as she said angrily, “I’m sorry! Is that enough?”
“Hey, is that the att.i.tude you should have when apologizing?”
“I’ve already apologized, what more do you want?” Su Ziyin asked unhappily.
“Is this how you apologize? There’s no sincerity in it at all.”
“You…” Su Ziyin’s eyes turned red in an instant, tears welling up as if they were about to fall at any moment.
It was as if someone else had bullied her.
He Lianjun urged her, “Hurry up, don’t cry! We all witnessed the bet you made.”
“Yin’er has been spoiled by me and the elders in the palace. She’s wilful and arrogant, and her words and actions were indeed reckless just now. 1 hope Mr. Jun can show me some respect and overlook this matter.”
Gu Qingluan hadn’t intended to hold onto it anyway.
But when she heard Su Haisheng’s words, she felt really uncomfortable.
If they were to persist in pursuing the matter, would that mean they were being petty?
Where were you when your granddaughter was acting aggressively and even causing harm to others?
She gave a faintly mocking smile. “Since you know she’s been spoiled, take her back and teach her properly. Otherwise, if she offends someone she shouldn’t, it won’t only be her who suffers, but also your sect.”
The brat dared to curse the Canghai Palace! Just because she luckily detoxified someone? Did she really think she was invincible?
A hint of displeasure flashed in Su Haisheng’s eyes, but he quickly suppressed it and said, “Mr. Jun’s words are indeed correct. After returning, I will definitely teach this girl a lesson.”
“Grandfather!” Su Ziyin stomped her foot in dissatisfaction.
“Don’t throw a tantrum anymore, don’t you think you’ve embarra.s.sed yourself enough?” Su Haisheng whispered.
Su Ziyin reluctantly said, “He’s just relying on the golden needles to detoxify, right? I’ve had my eye on those golden needles for a long time. If I had the golden needles, maybe I could detoxify people too.”
Everyone subconsciously looked at Gu Qingluan when they heard Su Ziyin’s words.
Gu Qingluan also heard Su Ziyin’s words and smiled.
Did she really think that all the credit for saving people was due to the golden needles?
