Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Qin Yun, take him out. I don’t want to hear his voice again.” Gu Qingxue leaned back in her chair and rubbed her brows tiredly.
“You, what do you want? I’m warning you guys not to mess around!” Qi Minghao immediately became alert and wanted to resist in a hurry.
Unfortunately, Qi Minghao was not her match at all. He was lifted up from the ground like a little chick and then forcefully brought out.
The shopkeeper could not stop Qi Minghao as he watched him being taken away. He could only turn his head and look at Gu Qingxue in fear. “This young lady
“l don’t mean to make things difficult for you, shopkeeper. I just want to know where Xiu Niang is.” Gu Qingxue looked at the shopkeeper calmly, her tone extremely calm.
“It’s… Xiu Niang that you spoke of indeed worked in our pharmacy, but later, our people found out that Xiu Niangs hands and feet were not clean. She actually stole medicine when people were unprepared, so we no longer let her stay in the pharmacy to work. Since then, we haven’t heard any news about Xiu Niang, and we don’t know where she went.” The shopkeeper opened his mouth very cooperatively, and the words poured out like beans.
“Do you know where she lives?” Gu Qingxue continued to ask.
The shopkeeper nodded this time and said with certainty, “In the slums in the south of the city. It’s strange to say that when Xiu Niang worked here, her salary was not low, but I don’t know why she always lived frugally. Not only did she live in the slums, but she also always stole medicine.”
“Stealing medicine?” Gu Qingxue’s sharp eyes narrowed as she looked at the shopkeeper and said, “What kind of medicine did she steal?”
The shopkeeper immediately said, “l remember this very clearly. They were all medicine for treating the heart and lungs. These medicines are often much more precious than ordinary medicine. That’s why they caught our attention when they were lost.”
“Medicine to treat the heart and lungs…” Gu Qingxue muttered to herself. An idea suddenly popped into her mind, and she subconsciously stood up from her seat.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he subconsciously shrank his neck back. He only relaxed when he was sure that Gu Qingxue was not doing anything else. Then, he looked at her in confusion. “Miss, is there anything wrong with this?”
“I’m fine. Thank you, shopkeeper.” As Gu Qingxue spoke, she took out two golden leaves from her sleeve and casually placed them on the table.
The shopkeeper did not expect to receive a golden leaf, and his smile became even more brilliant. “Thank you, Miss! Thank you, Miss! Miss, there’s one more thing 1 want to remind you of… You’ve offended the Young Master today.
In the future, you must be careful when you walk in Wuji City.”
Gu Qingxue turned to look at the shopkeeper behind her and nodded gently.
“Thank you for your reminder.”
After saying this, Gu Qingxue left the pharmacy.
When she walked out of the pharmacy, she saw Qin Yun waiting outside the door. Gu Qingxue did not see Qi Minghao at first glance, so she looked at musical note in confusion.
Qin Yun smiled brightly and said with pride, “Young Miss, you don’t need to look for him. Just now, after this servant threw that willful Young Master out, he still dared to speak wildly, so this servant simply beat him up again, which attracted a lot of people to watch. He probably felt that he had lost face, so he cursed and left. Before he left, he didn’t forget to leave some harsh words..”
