Chapter 1421: These Are All My Masterpieces

And what’s surprising is that there are no rumors about Yubao Square outside.

Even the bank auditors didn’t let them enter the hall.

So no one really knows about this matter.

In the evening, Qin Yize called the Qin Family, telling them that he and Qiaoqiao had some business outside and wouldn’t be coming home yet.

Grandma Qin, concerned, asked what was wrong with Yubao Square. Qin Yize diverted the topic to cover it up; there are some things that can’t be said for the time being, not even to his family. Just like the people at Gu Garden, they also don’t know what happened at Yubao Square, only that there might be some issues with the jade carvings, and Qiaoqiao and the Old Patriarch need to conduct a night inspection here.

The night passed quickly, and Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t attempt to restore the original condition of these jadeite gemstones again. It was too large of a task for her, and she honestly didn’t have the ability at the moment.

After a simple dinner, Zhang Yi sent the others away, and then they sat in the reception room to strategize.

At this moment, Gu Qingfeng had already shifted his suspicion to the Ouyang Clan, which Gu Qiaoqiao mentioned a few days ago.

Unfortunately, no one could confirm it.

Gu Qiaoqiao initially wanted to visit Ouyang Rong’s place in Gu Garden to see if there was anything unusual, but after reconsidering, she dismissed the idea. At this moment, she needed to stay by her great grandfather’s side at all times. If Ouyang Rong decided to show up, it would be a disaster, because that girl was just too arrogant and annoying.

Moreover, she must be the first to meet Ouyang Rong and to see if the item she placed earlier had any effect.

Just then, Yubao Square’s door was knocked, followed by a clear female voice, "Gu Qiaoqiao, I know you’re in there, can you open the door for me?"

Gu Qiaoqiao was startled, the voice was familiar, it was Ouyang Rong. Gu Qiaoqiao gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, she didn’t expect it was really her.

Gu Qiaoqiao exchanged a glance with Qin Yize, then looked at Gu Qingfeng sitting on the sofa. The Old Patriarch nodded, "Go and open the door."

It was a day sooner than he expected.

Gu Qiaoqiao was about to open the door, but was stopped by Qin Yize, who whispered, "I’ll go."

Gu Qiaoqiao was the one to negotiate with Ouyang Rong, and at this moment she should be calmly seated inside, not going to open the door for Ouyang Rong. This task was for Qin Yize to do.

Qin Yize quickly walked to the door and opened it. In the morning sunlight, three people stood there. In the middle was a girl he wasn’t familiar with. Beside her were two men. The girl’s eyes lit up upon seeing him.

Qin Yize recalled what Gu Qiaoqiao said and looked at the girl’s eyes, feeling as though he had swallowed a fly, disgusted. His gaze, slightly sinister, swept over the three, saying nothing, but the chilling air made the smile on Ouyang Rong’s face freeze.

For some reason, Ouyang Rong felt that the look Qin Yize gave her was as if he was looking at a dead person, sending a chill down her spine.

This man was entirely different from the ones she had encountered before. Although there was a tiny inexplicable fear in her heart, for some reason, it ignited her fighting spirit. However, as these thoughts crossed her mind, she inexplicably felt irritable again.

That’s how she had felt these days, not knowing what was wrong, and even the spiritual energy was sometimes chaotic. Luckily, she had her father’s treasured Ruyi Ball with her.

Otherwise, she really didn’t know if she would go mad or have other mishaps.

Then Ouyang Rong looked inside the room. Good, the head and young master of the Gu Family were both present. Ouyang Rong coughed, lifted her chin, and swaggered slowly into Yubao Square’s hall.

Qin Yize remained silent, and as they all entered, he casually closed the door, standing in front of it, coldly watching the three of them.

Gu Qiaoqiao glared at Ouyang Rong, then looked at her hands, feeling somewhat relieved inside. Luckily, the things she had added had taken effect; Ouyang Rong didn’t look as good as she did days ago. Her eyes and brows carried a hint of darkness.

For someone like Ouyang Rong, such dark energy was not a good sign.

But obviously, she hadn’t realized what was going on yet. Gu Qiaoqiao also knew that anything worn on the thumb must be a treasure.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t wear it even while sleeping.

At this moment, Gu Qingfeng was sitting on the sofa, and Gu Qiaoqiao and Zhang Yi stood on either side of him. Gu Qingfeng, accustomed to storms, couldn’t gauge the depth of the one woman and two men before him.

Gu Qingfeng coughed lightly, frowned, and spoke with a hint of coldness in his voice, "A wise man doesn’t speak in riddles. How would the daughter of the Mystic Sect’s Sect Leader from a hundred years ago end up here at Yubao Square today? Look, I have nothing of value here for you to admire anymore."

Ouyang Rong chuckled, "Old Patriarch, you’re really good at playing dumb even when you know. Why are you playing dumb?"

"Why don’t you tell me what’s going on?" Gu Qingfeng said leisurely.

Ouyang Rong didn’t hide anything, stretched out her hand, made a circle around, then clapped and laughed, "Old Patriarch, let me tell you, this is all my masterpiece."

"Aren’t you afraid of punishment?" Zhang Yi angrily asked.

Ouyang Rong pouted and feigned ignorance, "What did I do? Did I break the law? Even if it was me, would your people believe it? They’d all say you’re crazy, then lock us up in a mental hospital..."

Hahaha, Ouyang Rong’s slightly deranged laughter suddenly echoed indoors.

At this moment, San Qi and Ba Jiao, who had been following her, no longer looked at the Old Patriarch, but directed their gaze at their Ouyang family’s eldest lady. San Qi muttered to himself, something seemed wrong, why did the eldest lady’s laughter sound so uncomfortable?

However, given the scene before them, the two couldn’t say a word and could only stand quietly on the side.

At this moment, they were seven steps away from Gu Qiaoqiao, and she realized they were ready to ignite the Barrier Talisman at any time. Clearly, they were also wary of Gu Qiaoqiao attacking them. While there indeed was such an idea, for the time being, it couldn’t be carried out. Besides Qin Yize, Gu Qiaoqiao also had two ordinary people by her side. If things went south, it would bring more trouble.

So these three had probably calculated all of this and were acting so brazenly.
