Next, after dealing with Wang Shi, Gu Qingluan went to find Zhang Sheng.
With a servant from the Gu residence guiding the way, she headed to Jade Serenity Residence, but there was no sign of Zhang Sheng.
Looking around the furnishings in the room, Gu Qingluan immediately understood – Zhang Sheng had fled!
He was quite agile indeed.
Regrettably, Gu Qingluan had to return empty-handed.
However, she wasn’t planning to let this swindler get away with his deceitful actions so easily.
She instructed Su Lie to issue a warrant for Zhang Sheng’s arrest.
Zhang Sheng had some skill, as several days passed without any trace of him; he was hiding quite well.
With the task assigned to her subordinates, Gu Qingluan put this matter aside.
The rescued girls temporarily resided in an inn for an extended period.
After contemplating for a moment, Gu Qingluan decided to arrange for them to cultivate spiritual herbs in the back mountains of the Jun residence.
Considering that they had been tormented by Qitian Yu, they were somewhat averse to being around people. The back mountains were Jun residence’s territory, off-limits to outsiders, providing them with some freedom.
Earlier, Gu Qingluan had cultivated a number of herbs in the back mountains, but due to her many responsibilities, she hadn’t the time to care for the medicinal fields. Their arrival was opportune.
The fifteen girls in relatively good spirits were elated with this arrangement, expressing gratitude. The remaining five didn’t voice their opinions, but Gu Qingluan took their silence as consent and included them in the arrangement as well.
Instructing Su Lie to keep an eye on them, Gu Qingluan felt a sense of closure regarding this matter and temporarily set it aside.
Next on her agenda was the black market auction.
If the black market auction truly had Chaos Stones this time, regardless of the cost, she was determined to acquire them!
Her current wealth was remarkable, but auction events weren’t always about money; sometimes, the owners of certain items preferred to trade for other valuable things.
Thus, aside from preparing ample Xuanling Crystal Hearts, Gu Qingluan also went to the trouble of refining some high-grade spirit pills. Accidentally producing an excess, she found herself depleting her stock of medicinal ingredients.
Contemplating as she walked toward the front courtyard, she pondered whether to personally buy more ingredients or delegate the task to her subordinates. That was when she noticed servants carrying boxes, delivering them one by one.
“What are you all doing?”
Upon hearing her voice, the servants quickly greeted her. One of them responded to her query, “Madam, these are gifts sent by Young Master Feng.” Young Master Feng?
Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow.
“Mother!”
Gu Qingluan looked up as Yuanxi ran towards her.
“Little Yuanxi, are these from you?”
Feng Yuanxi rushed to her side, his smile radiant as he shook his head, “No, it’s from my father.”
“Your father?” Gu Qingluan frowned.
“Yes, my father is trying to win you over!”
Gu Qingluan glanced at the boxes being carried in like a stream of water, her lips twitching. “Why is your father causing a scene with you? Take these things back.”
Just looking at the dozens of boxes in front of her, she had no idea how many more were outside.
Feng Yuanxi shook his head vigorously, “How could this be a scene? My father is pursuing you, of course he has to show sincerity. Mother, take a look at these gifts and see if you like them. If you don’t, just toss them in the warehouse. Next time, my father will send you something else.”
Gu Qingluan had experienced Yuanxi’s generosity before; in his eyes, these items were likely considered worthless trinkets. However, without even opening the boxes, she knew they contained items of considerable value.
“No pain, no gain.” She addressed the servants carrying the boxes, “Take them all out!”
The servants exchanged uneasy glances.
Sensing the tension, Feng Yuanxi cautiously asked, “Mother, are you upset?”
Gu Qingluan looked down at him, not displaying anger.. “No, and where is your father?”
