Ruan Qiao froze in place.

She looked at the man.

Seeing her embarrassment, the man said, "It was my fault for not disciplining my subordinates well, causing unnecessary trouble for Miss Ruan. This kind of thing will not happen again."

Ruan Qiao nodded, looked at Tianlong and said, "Mr. Tianlong, there is no need to be like this. It's all a misunderstanding."

Ruan Qiao didn't stay any longer and left.

After returning to the room, Ruan Qiao suddenly felt her body go limp.

She sank into the sofa, unable to move.

The man was of noble status and had an unfathomable background, and was definitely not someone she could afford to offend.

Even if she had a brief encounter with a man, the consequences would be something she couldn't bear.

After all, she is just an ordinary person.

Ordinary people should live ordinary lives.

For example, make friends with the Tang family and protect your family.

Ruan Qiao thought about it and couldn't help feeling drowsy.

This was the first time she felt tired since entering the system's learning space.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, there was a gentle knock on the door of the room.

Ruan Qiao rubbed her eyes, stood up and opened the door.

Tianlong was standing outside the door.

Ruan Qiao's heart skipped a beat and she resisted the urge to close the door.

As if he could see the rejection on her face, Tianlong took a step back and lowered his head slightly.

"Miss Ruan, I'm truly sorry. This is a small apology gift from the Young Master. It's sugar-free, so it won't be a burden to eat at night."

He held an exquisite box in his hand.

Ruan Qiao hesitated for a moment, but still took it and said, "Your young master is thoughtful. Tell him not to take it to heart, and I won't take it to heart either."

Tianlong nodded very respectfully, then took a few steps back and turned to leave.

Ruan Qiao closed the door.

She placed the exquisite box on the low table, stared at it for a while, touched her somewhat empty stomach, and finally opened it.

It is a very delicate, milky white pastry that is as crystal clear as mutton-fat jade.

There is a hint of medicinal fragrance in the fresh fragrance.

Ruan Qiao smelled it carefully and found it very valuable.

There was a small silver spoon placed thoughtfully in the box. Ruan Qiao picked up the small spoon and took a bite of the pastry.

It’s icy cool, sweet but not greasy, and melts in your mouth.

There is also a special fragrance that is a mixture of fresh fragrance and medicinal fragrance.

Ruan Qiao took a bite and couldn’t help but want to take a second bite. It was so sweet that even her mood became relaxed.

Before she knew it, she had already finished the small piece of cake.

Ruan Qiao stared at the empty box for a while.

Finally she packed up the box and went to wash up and rest.

In the evening, Ruan Qiao was pulled into the study space by the system again.

System: "The first stage of physical training was completed well. The second stage will begin today."

Ruan Qiao was surprised: "So soon? I want to sleep today and don't want to study. Can I have a day off?"

Then she saw herself across from her expressionless face as she said, "You took some supplements today, so it's just right for you to use them up when you learn the second stage of physical training."

"What tonic?" Ruan Qiao was a little unconvinced.

"Seven Treasures White Jade Cake, given to you by that man." The system said without a mechanical expression.

"Is that cake called Qibao White Jade Cake?" Ruan Qiao asked curiously.

"It's an ancient treasure, and only that man can produce it." said the system.

Ruan Qiao was silent.

That night, Ruan Qiao finally couldn't escape the second stage of study.

She once again experienced the pain of being a beginner.

But later on, it was doubly refreshing.

The next morning, Ruan Qiao woke up and after many days, her body expelled impurities again.

After washing, her skin radiated a crystal-like luster, as white as the finest white jade.

Fortunately, she did not go to bed, but sat on the floor of the bedroom to meditate.

She cleaned the floor and went to the Tang family's pharmaceutical team, which had become her job.

In the evening, after such a misunderstanding, Ruan Qiao naturally would not stay at the Tang family anymore, but returned to the Ruan family.

The man stood by the window, watching Ruan Qiao's small white car drive away quickly.

In the next few days, Ruan Qiao went to the Tang family's pharmaceutical team to refine pills in the morning and returned to the Ruan family in the evening.

I never met the man and his subordinate Tianlong again.

Even Jiang Qi didn't come to see her again.

The day of the Tang family auction finally arrived.

The auction will be held from 9pm to 2am.

However, before eight o'clock in the evening, the hall of Tang's Auction House was already crowded with people.

It was because the Tang family released the news in advance that the item to be auctioned this time was the ancient elixir Snow Bone Pill.

Almost all ancient martial arts families with some background know something about the effects of Snow Bone Pill.

On the one hand, they felt that such a rare elixir was impossible to appear.

They also felt that the Tang family would not do anything without a purpose, so they came here half-believing and half-doubting.

Several luxurious cars also drove up at this time. Han Linjiang got out of the car, respectfully held the door, bent down and made a gesture to invite the car in.

His action surprised everyone around him.

The dignified head of the Han family, a master of his generation, actually serves people personally.

Who is that person in the car?

Everyone stopped to watch, and soon, a leg stretched out from the car. The person was wearing white suit pants that were smooth without a wrinkle, and black shiny leather shoes.

Next, there was the slender figure, the white suit, the meticulously styled hair, and the gold-rimmed glasses that gave him a refined look.

"Mr. Baixie, please." Han Linjiang said respectfully.

Bai Xie glanced at him indifferently and walked inside first.

Han Linjiang followed calmly and sighed, "Mr. Baixie, look how arrogant the Tang family is! They're actually auctioning off the Snow Bone Pill.
