Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Being threatened publicly, Lu Banian felt a wave of displeasure surging in his heart.
Truly, like father, like daughter.
Gu Jinyue and Mr. Gu shared the sa traits and characteristics.
The Universe Stabilizer was indeed precious, but attempting to use it as a ans of intimidation was simply laughable!
“A true gentleman keeps his word. Instead of threatening , Mr. Gu, you should focus on raising your own daughter properly.”
Gu Zhixin was infuriated and staggered backward.
He pointed at Lu Banian angrily. “Very well! You brat, you have guts! Don’t bla for being heartless in the future!”
He then turned to Liu ng. “Mr. Liu, is this how you show your gratitude for the kindness our family has extended to you? You have enjoyed our hospitality, partaken in our als and wine, only to display such ingratitude.”
“Ingratitude? Mr. Gu seems to have gotten it backwards, don’t you think?” Liu ng looked at him in astonishnt. “With your son’s hand disabled and your daughter’s face disfigured, if it weren’t for my intervention in treating them, would they have recovered so quickly? As for staying at the Gu residence, wasn’t it you who claid that the dical fees were too high and needed more ti to gather the funds, asking to stay a little longer in your noble house?”
Gu Zhixin choked on his words.
Liu ng was right.
The dical fees were indeed substantial, but their family could afford them.
He deliberately made those remarks to keep Liu ng around.
So, Liu ng eating and staying at the Gu residence was nobody’s fault but their own.
The astute individuals present had probably guessed the whole story upon hearing Liu ng’s words.
Deep down, they silently cursed—
The Gu family has no sha!
They displayed utter shalessness, flaunting their association with Mr. Liu and Not Returning Island in front of everyone.
So disgruntled individuals sneered and mocked, “So that’s how it is! The Gu family boasts about their connection with the Island of No Return, but it turns out they owe money and refuse to repay!”
“Even if Mr. Liu demands an exorbitant dical fee, could it exceed the wealth of the richest man? Let’s not forget, the Gu family once seized the fortune of the Jun family, the richest family in the city! From what I see, it’s not that they can’t gather the money, but rather a deliberate act of withholding paynt to keep people around.”
“That’s truly shaless, boasting to the world about their affiliation with the Island of No Return.”
“Indeed, when it cos to shalessness, the Gu family undoubtedly claims the top spot.”
Those who cultivated their senses had a keen hearing, making it impossible to miss these piercing remarks.
Gu Zhixin’s face turned red with embarrassnt.
anwhile, Gu Zhicheng, implicated by association, also felt incredibly uncomfortable.
He never expected that his younger brother would resort to such ans to keep important guests at ho!
“Look at what you’ve done!” He glared at Gu Zhixin with resentnt and hurriedly walked away.
Gu Zhixin shot a stern look at the crowd and turned to chase after his elder brother. “Wait for , Elder Brother!”
The Gu family’s carriage disappeared at the end of the street in the blink of an eye.
After they left, most of the other guests also started to depart.
The remaining people approached Liu ng to engage in conversation.
Noticing Liu ng’s good relationship with Gu Qingluan, they took the opportunity to praise Gu Qingluan.
Liu ng’s smile deepened. “Indeed, Miss Gu is truly exceptional.”
He felt even happier to praise Gu Qingluan than to receive complints himself.
Everyone observed this and beca even more astonished.
They hadn’t expected that not only did Miss Gu have a close relationship with Lu Banian, but she also had a unique connection with Mr. Liu.
From now on, they couldn’t afford to underestimate or neglect Gu Qingluan!
Quietly, the attitudes of half the people in Tianjing City towards Gu Qingluan underwent a significant shift.
After chatting for a while, seeing Gu Qingluan and Liu ng maintaining a distant attitude, everyone tactfully bid their farewells and left.
Before departing, they even extended invitations for Gu Qingluan and Liu ng to visit their hos when they had the chance.
Once everyone had left, only Gu Qingluan, Feng Yuanxi, Liu ng, and Lu Banian remained at the entrance.
Lu Banian couldn’t help but express his concern. “With the Universe Stabilizer in the possession of the Gu family, it is likely that they will pose a threat to you, Miss Gu, once they produce a Saint in the future. Since you and Liu ng are acquainted, how did the Universe Stabilizer end up benefiting the Gu family?”
Gu Qingluan chuckled at his amusent. “Do you think the Gu family obtained a precious treasure?”
Lu Banian froze. “So, are you suggesting that the Universe Stabilizer is counterfeit? That’s highly unlikely.. Our auction house’s appraiser has confird without a doubt that it is indeed the genuine Universe Stabilizer!”
