Although that's what they said, they all still focused their attention on Qi Jiu, with eyes that yearned for knowledge.
Although he didn't say a word, the meaning conveyed in his eyes was already very clear.
Qi Jiu: "..." If I say no now, will they believe me?
"It must be a case of the same name. This 'Holy Spring' is a drug dealer." She said, waving her phone dismissively.
"……Yeah?"
Zhu Luoxing and the others were clearly somewhat skeptical.
The name "Holy Spring" doesn't sound like something a normal person would choose. How could someone with the same name have the same name?
The girl remained calm and composed. "Yes, when Grandpa He had his accident, it was he who delivered the medicine. The antidote was in H Continent. If he weren't a drug dealer, how could he have delivered it so quickly? You don't know that he often sells medicine internationally."
Holy Spring: "..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw several people next to him nod knowingly.
"Father, you used to make a name for yourself internationally, so do you know about the Holy Spring of the International Pharmaceutical Organization?"
"I haven't met you before, but I might have a chance to meet you in the future."
Holy Spring: "..." Although there's nothing wrong with it, something just feels off. But they really don't seem to have seen it before.
After returning to her dormitory after dinner, Qi Jiu frowned as she looked at Sheng Quan's tearful plea on her phone.
"Number Nine, you have no idea how many eyes were on this poisonous herb at this auction! One big shot even offered a kill offer right off the bat. If I didn't have my current status, I wouldn't have been able to win the bid for this poisonous herb, sob sob..."
Qi Jiu: "..."
"Don't cry, the money has already been deposited into your account."
Holy Spring: "Okay, thanks, big brother!"
Qi Jiu: "..." That's quite straightforward.
"Hey! Someone's finally back! Now that one of us is on leave, I thought there were only two of us in our dorm!"
Gong Rui, still a little sulky, hugged the potato chips and glanced at the person who had just returned and was already holding their phone. Although she didn't name names, it was quite obvious what she meant.
Qi Jiu: "..."
"Qiqi, we saw the news. Are you alright? Did Tang Miaomiao really go in?" Although we had already called before, we were still a little worried.
It's quite rare for celebrities to go to jail.
"It's alright, the filming is going very well now."
Gong Rui looked at her, a sly smile on her face. "Isn't Ling Yue handsome?"
Qi Jiu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. "Handsome."
"Is Ling Yue more handsome or Young Master Qi?"
"Ah Lin is handsome."
Ling Yue: "..." He's already crying his eyes out in the bathroom.
Chen Yueqiu took a handful of sunflower seeds and placed them on the girl's desk. "So, are you leaving again? Even though Ruoruo has taken a leave of absence, you've been so busy this whole semester that it's practically the same as taking a leave of absence. This dorm room is now just the two of us."
"I'm not leaving. I'll start working after my final exams."
Time flew by, and the final exams passed in a flash. As for Leng Ruo, who was far away in an international assassin organization, she naturally found a way to have her take the exams online.
At first, Wei Huan wanted to say something more, but looking at Leng Ruo's excellent grades, he couldn't bring himself to say it.
Wei Huan: "..." He's probably already dead from anger in the toilet!
After the final exams, Qi Jiu looked at the quiet Leng family compound in front of her, tilted her head, and was about to take out her phone to call Leng Tianxiao when she noticed that the Leng family guard who had been standing at the door earlier had taken two steps forward.
"Miss Qi? Are you Miss Qi Jiu?"
The other person was still dressed in a black outfit. Although they had last met a few months ago, the two of them still remembered Qi Jiu. Before she could answer, they had already greeted her warmly.
“Miss Qi Jiu, our young master said that from now on, whenever you come, you don’t need to announce your arrival. You can just walk in directly. From now on, the doors of the Leng family will be open for you at any time.”
As he spoke, he looked at the car behind Qi Jiu with a smile.
Do you need me to park your car?
The girl was taken aback, not expecting such attentive service, and nodded.
Stepping into the Leng family home, the environment and atmosphere seemed almost the same as last time, or even... more somber?
I don't know if she's overthinking it, but the desolation is definitely there.
She walked alone on the path leading to the Leng family's house, took out her phone and tapped on the screen. After a short while, she put it away. However, just as she was about to quicken her pace, a voice came from behind her.
"Halt! Who are you?"
It was a somewhat aged yet sharp voice; if it were an ordinary young girl, she would probably have been frightened.
Qi Jiu raised an eyebrow, turned around, looked at the person who had come, and smiled.
An old man dressed in a Tang suit stood in front of her. He was initially on guard, but when he saw Qi Jiu's true face, his eyes widened in surprise.
"We meet again, Third Elder."
The girl smiled brightly, but the Third Elder opposite her looked rather unpleasant.
All the things that had happened before suddenly echoed in my mind.
He never expected that a girl in her early twenties could embarrass him so many times.
"Miss Qi, if you were just relaying a message for Ruoruo, what brings you in here? The young master isn't even with you. Could it be that you secretly entered the Leng family's residence?"
Hearing this, Qi Jiu laughed.
The Third Elder was still the same as before, a stubborn mule. If he hadn't vented his anger earlier, he would probably have held a grudge against her for the rest of his life.
But how could she possibly let him vent his anger?
"Third Elder, don't put it so harshly. Stealth? What does your Leng family have that would make me sneak in? Money? Status?"
Today she was wearing gray overalls, covered by a windbreaker, and her long hair was tied in a ponytail. As she spoke to the Third Elder, the ponytail behind her swayed back and forth as she shook her head.
He looked so dashing.
"you!"
Perhaps not expecting Qi Jiu to speak so directly, the Third Elder's face flushed red with anger.
"Who knows what you're doing here? If you have nothing to do, what are you doing in my Leng family home? Do you think my Leng family home has become your backyard?"
"I invited Miss Qi here."
Suddenly, a deep voice came from behind her. As Qi Jiu turned her head, Leng Tianxiao's expressionless face came into her view.
"Young Master?" The Third Elder was taken aback.
Leng Tianxiao walked straight up, and because of his height, he blocked Qi Jiu's view.
“Miss Qi Jiu is my friend. I invited her here today. As for what it is about, I don’t think the Third Elder needs to know.”
His voice was cold, which caused Qi Jiu's gaze to change slightly.
It seems that in the months since she left the Leng family, this rumored playboy has changed quite a bit.
