The First Elder looked at Ji Wanwan in shock and could only continue to sigh helplessly. It was as if he wanted to spit out all the frustration in his heart. He was extremely worried.
“Sorry to keep you waiting. My master has arrived.” Qian Rong stepped into the hall first, and then Su Qian walked in from behind her.
“Miss Su.” The moment Ji Wanwan saw Su Qian, she stood up excitedly. Her lively little face was filled with a smile. “We didn’t inform Miss Su in advance of our sudden visit. It’s impolite of us.”
“The two of you are too polite. Please take a seat.” Su Qian smiled indifferently and gestured for the two of them to sit down.
“Miss Su, I know you don’t like beating around the bush, so I’ll get straight to the point.” Ji Wanwan looked at Su Qian with a sincere gaze and said, “Miss Su, my uncle’s condition has worsened even more than before. I would like to invite Miss Su to follow me to the sub-branch pavilion to take a look. As long as Miss Su can cure my uncle, I’ll do anything you want.”
“Eldest Miss, be careful with your words!” First Elder was so frightened by Ji Wanwan’s words that gooseb.u.mps appeared on his back. He quickly reminded Ji Wanwan.
Eldest Miss had always been a very calm person. Why had she suddenly seemed foolish now? Wasn’t she afraid that Su Qian would make outrageous demands? Besides, he didn’t believe that Su Qian was truly capable.
Su Qian unexpectedly looked at Ji Wanwan. She didn’t expect Ji Wanwan from such a prestigious family would be so loyal and righteous.
Ji Wanwan was more anxious when she saw Su Qian remain silent. Her heart had already sunk halfway. “Miss Su, are you unwilling to…?”
“No, I’m willing to help,” Su Qian said directly.
Before Ji Wanwan could react, she sighed. “I knew Miss Su wouldn’t agree so easily…Hmm? Wait a moment?”
Su Qian smiled lightly at Ji Wanwan’s stunned expression. “I said, I’m willing to help.”
“Really?” Ji Wanwan was overjoyed and almost on the verge of tears. She quickly stood up and held Su Qian’s and expressed her grat.i.tude, “Thankyou so much, Miss Su!”
First Elder stood dumbfounded at the side, completely stunned by Su Qian’s words.
What was going on? Didn’t she pretend to be ignorant and incapable before? How did Miss Su change her att.i.tude so quickly? It was like flipping through a book. It was simply, simply confusing!
“Thank you is unnecessary, Miss Ji. Before we head to the sub-branch pavilion, 1 have a presumptuous request.” Su Qian looked at Ji Wanwan. “I wonder if Miss Ji has the Qilin Celestial Vine with you.”
“Yes.” As Ji Wanwan spoke, she took out a necklace from her collar. On it hung a finger-length Celestial Vine that looked like a tree branch. It was ethereal and pale blue with faint fluorescent light flowing within it. There were complicated patterns carved on its surface, and it looked like a valuable item. “Miss Su Qian, are you looking for this?”
“Yes, that’s it. Miss Ji, I guarantee that I can cure your uncle. As for the reward, 1 only need these Qilin Celestial Vines.” Su Qian’s gaze was glued to the Qilin Celestial Vine. When she thought about how she could soon alleviate Qingqing’s condition, she was filled with joy. “However, 1 urgently need the Qilin Celestial Vine now. You have to give me the Celestial Vine first. Give me a day. Tomorrow, I’ll set off with you to the sub-branch pavilion to treat the sub-branch Pavilion Master.”
As soon as Su Qian said this, Ji Wanwan and First Elder’s expressions changed at the same time..
