Gu Qingjiu felt that this scene in front of her looked like those from dramas.

As she thought, she lowered her voice and steadied it. Im here to collect something under Huo Yingchengs name.

In an instant, the old man looked towards Gu Qingjiu.

And his gaze clouded over with something ominous in an instance.

He sized Gu Qingjiu up. His gaze made her feel as if an insect was crawling all over her body.

This chill in the surrounding air irritated her skin, causing goosebumps to appear.

The way this man looked at her made her feel pressured and incredibly uncomfortable.

But it was a relief that the pressure wasnt as bad as He Nianchengs.

He only took around ten seconds to size Gu Qingjiu up, before he chuckled in a cold and dark tone. Huo Yingcheng

With just those three words, it sounded so ominous on that chilly winter night that it scared people.

Gu Qingjiu forced herself to calm down. Even if it was in the past, she had never met a person as strange as him

But he quickly turned around to retrieve a no bigger than the size of Gu Qingjius palm ordinary looking box from the corner of the shop.

He took it and passed it to Gu Qingjiu.

When Gu Qingjiu received it, she saw the mans eyes who seemed to be testing her.

She calmed herself and steadily took the box over.

And without a single word, she left.

After Gu Qingjiu had entered the car, she passed the box to He Niancheng. Only after she took her seat did she realize that the perspiration covering her back had already seeped through her clothes.

He Niancheng drove the car away immediately.

After sweeping a glance over the box, he casually placed it under his car seat.

Gu Qingjiu didnt probe. It was only when He Niancheng sent her home did she hear him say a single word. Thanks.

It terrified Gu Qingjiu upon hearing that. She turned and shook her head. Chief Instructor, you dont have to be so polite.

Okay.

He Niancheng looked at her meaningfully. It will really be tough on you in the future.

Before Gu Qingjiu could fully comprehend that statement, he drove away.

It seemed like the Chief Instructor still remembered what Huo Yingcheng said in the car earlier on.

Was he referring to her becoming his maidservant?

Shrugging her shoulder, Gu Qingjiu went up from the back entrance.

Gu Qingjiu still couldnt wrap her head around with what happened. Why was she suddenly helping the Chief Instructor to do something top secret?

Gu Qingjiu could feel that when she went to collect the said item, the boss in that shop

His eyes were bloodthirsty, and he exuded an aura that caused ones heart to palpitate rapidly, as if the coppery scent of blood was choking her

It felt so menacing that even until then Gu Qingjiu still felt tense.

Only

But with the Chief Instructor by her side, that feeling seemed to have diminished a little.

She felt that even if it was dangerous, the Chief Instructor wouldnt ask her to do such things.

But all of a sudden, it seemed like she obtained some incredible information.

Gu Qingjiu was still thinking about it after opening the door, so when Gu Qingmo opened his rooms door, she jumped in shock.

Older brother, youre back so quickly?

He was walking out from his room, already clad in his pajamas so he probably have showered. It can be easily seen that he had been back for quite some time.

Gu Qingjiu probably went for around half an hour.
