In the next life... just be more careful, okay?
Qian Er was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, Qiao Suinian cut open his throat with a knife.
"Relax, take a deep breath. Dizziness is normal; it's a necessary process for reincarnation."
Qian Er's eyes were filled with despair. He struggled desperately, but as he struggled, the blood gushed out even faster, and soon he stopped moving.
Qian Kunyi made a slight movement at first, then retreated with a grim expression.
The reason he went to such lengths was simply to ensure Qian Er's survival.
After all, Qian Er was very loyal to him, and he didn't want such a good dog to die like that.
Unexpectedly, this person showed him no respect whatsoever and killed him without hesitation.
This Gu family is far too domineering and tyrannical!
However, Qian Kunyi dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction. Qiao Suinian's behavior only made Qian Kunyi more certain that the other party must be a family-oriented person.
Besides the Gu family, who else would dare to kill them after knowing they came from the Qian family?
"Well done, young man! This lackey was always causing trouble and giving me a lot of problems. I've wanted to kill him for a long time. Thank you for eliminating this threat for me!"
Qian Kun didn't even glance at Qian Er's corpse, but instead greeted Qiao Suinian with a smile.
"Really?" Looking at Qian Kunyi's hypocritical face, Qiao Suinian didn't expose him, but instead laughed along. "Then next time something like this happens, I'll definitely help Butler Qian out!"
Qian Kunyi's face turned green for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.
"Hahaha! Then thank you in advance, young brother! Young brother, you must be tired from your journey. Why don't you come to my Qian family as a guest and let us host a welcome dinner for you?"
Qiao Suinian almost burst out laughing when she heard this. A welcome party for Gu Hanyin? It's more like a funeral for him.
If I hadn't turned Gu Hanyin into an undead creature, this guy's corpse would probably be rotting by now.
"I can't decide that; I need to ask my young master's opinion!"
Qiao Suinian glanced at Qian Kunyi indifferently, then walked to Gu Hanyin's side, put her ear close, frowned, and nodded from time to time.
"Hmm! Hmm! Hmm! Yes, young master! Hmm!"
Qiao Suinian raised her head and looked down at Qian Kunyi.
"My young master said that your Qian family is not worthy!"
Qian Kunyi's expression changed drastically, but he dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction.
Compared to the Gu family, the Qian family is indeed unworthy. For the Qian family to want to host a welcome party for Gu Hanyin is truly an overestimation of their abilities.
"But..."
Qiao Suinian drew out the last syllable, giving Qian Kunyi a meaningful look.
"If Steward Qian is sincere enough, I might as well put in a good word for your Qian family in front of the young master!"
As the Qian family's steward, Qian Kunyi was naturally shrewd and understood Qiao Suinian's meaning.
"Young man, rest assured! My Qian family is absolutely sincere!"
A look of pain flashed across Qian Kunyi's face, and then he took off a ring from his hand and stuffed it into Qiao Suinian's hand.
Qiao Suinian picked it up and saw that the ring was entirely silver with a circular frosted pattern on it. It was actually a piece of equipment with a C-grade rating!
【Gling Blood Ring】
Quality: C
Effect: +70 Spirit Power. The wearer can consume their own blood to store a spell in the Gring Blood Ring, achieving an instant cast effect.
Description: A bloodthirsty ring forged by a master blacksmith possessed by demonic possession; it needs to absorb the wearer's blood to gain powerful abilities.
Qiao Suinian was secretly delighted. Storing a spell skill allows for instant casting, which explains why he hadn't noticed any fluctuations in Qian Kunyi's attack on the knife-wielding man.
This Grimm Blood Ring is absolutely an essential artifact for home, travel, murder, and robbery.
"Butler Qian! You're looking down on me!"
Qiao Suinian immediately put on a very upright appearance.
"I have no other merits, except that I am utterly loyal to Young Master Gu Hanyin. Bribery won't work on me! My upbringing doesn't allow me to do such things. You've misjudged me!"
"Butler Qian, you should take this ring back yourself!"
Qiao Suinian took off her bright silver ring and handed it to Qian Kunyi.
This bright silver ring was made by Lin Sanshi some time ago. It's only of F+ quality and has no effect other than emitting a bright light that can blind people.
As Qiao Suinian's strength increased, he used the bright silver ring less and less.
After handing the bright silver ring to Qian Kunyi, Qiao Suinian naturally slipped the Geling Blood Ring onto her own hand.
After the silver-white ring was slipped onto Qiao Suinian's finger, Qiao Suinian immediately felt a sharp pain in her fingertip, and then the Geling Blood Ring slowly changed from silver-white to pure blood red.
This also means that he can store a skill in the Gring Blood Ring.
Qian Kunyi originally thought that Qiao Suinian was a truly upright and good young man, but when he received the ring, he was so angry that he almost lost his temper.
I handed over a C-grade ring, and you took back an F+ grade ring. You call that me misjudging someone?
I see you as a ****, you ***, I'll ****!
Qian Kunyi only dared to vent his frustration in his heart, but immediately put on a shameful smile.
"I never expected you to be of such noble character, young man. I was so presumptuous! I'm so sorry, young man, I apologize!"
"Hmm! It's alright. It's good to admit your mistakes and correct them. Don't do it again next time!"
Qiao Suinian nodded in satisfaction, and then pretended to have a conversation with Gu Hanyin.
"Alright! My young master said that since the Qian family is so sincere, let's have a meal at the Qian family's house before returning to the capital!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Kun's face instantly lit up with ecstatic joy.
As long as you can get on Gu Hanyin's good side and get close to the Gu family, the cost of that C-grade ring will be completely worthwhile, even worth more than expected, no different from winning five million in the lottery.
"Alright, thank you for gracing me with your presence, Young Master Gu! Come on, young man, this way please!"
Qian Kunyi put his earlier frustration behind him and, with a fawning expression, pointed out the route for Qiao Suinian.
Once the news spreads that Gu Hanyin had been a guest at the Qian family's home, the Qian family's status in Beihe City will rise dramatically.
If Gu Hanyin were really willing to lend a hand to the Qian family, they might be able to use this opportunity to break out of Beihe City and officially enter the capital!
After years of struggling as a second-rate family in Beihe City, the Qian family finally has the opportunity to rise above their station.
The Qian family's good days are finally coming!
As Qian Kunyi imagined the benefits Gu Hanyin would bring to the Qian family, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, and his heart felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.
