Gu Shengyin was a bit puzzled.
Drowsiness hit her, and she planned to take a nap first.
However, she hadnât fallen asleep yet when the wind chimes rang once again.
Gu Shengyin was a bit perplexed: Whatâs going on today?
You should know that usually, hardly anyone visits her flower shop for half a month.
"Excuse me, are you Ms. Jiang Lan?" The visitor was dressed in a suit and looked very respectable, yet faced Gu Shengyin with great humility.
Gu Shengyin raised an eyebrow in slight surprise: "Yes, are you here to buy flowers?"
The visitor: "..."
He smiled: "This time I am here to find Exorcist Ms. Jiang Lan, not the flower shop owner Ms. Jiang Lan."
"Oh." Gu Shengyin wasnât very interested.
"Not many people know my identity, and even fewer can find me here. Since you found me, you must also know my price," Gu Shengyin said.
The middle-aged man revealed a slight smile upon hearing this: "Of course, this is some compensation we prepared."
Gu Shengyin glanced at it, very satisfied with the six zeros following the figure: "Leave the check there; letâs talk about the situation first."
These exorcists, besides taking on tasks assigned by the organization, derive their largest income from taking private cases.
The prices vary naturally among different exorcists.
For someone like Jiang Lan, a seven-figure amount is just a deposit.
Of course, those who can inquire about Jiang Lanâs identity and address naturally wouldnât mind a mere seven-figure deposit.
When the middle-aged man heard Gu Shengyin agree, a slight smile appeared on his face. He gestured with his hand, inviting: "Why donât we talk as we walk?"
Gu Shengyin nodded and stood up to follow him out.
The middle-aged man found it very strange that she wasnât carrying anything and didnât lock the door when leaving.
Gu Shengyin took one look at him and understood what he was thinking. She said, "Donât worry, the things I need are always with me. As for this flower shop... no one will enter."
Except for people like you with a purpose.
The middle-aged man found Gu Shengyinâs words somewhat inscrutable, and his respect for her grew.
Along the way, the middle-aged man briefly told some of his sideâs situation.
Zhou Family of the Capital City?
Gu Shengyinâs gaze sharpened; if it was the Zhou family she knew, then it was indeed extraordinary.
It turned out that the second young master of the Zhou family had started behaving very strangely since a month ago.
The specifics of the strangeness, the middle-aged man could only say hesitantly, ending with, "Youâll see for yourself when the time comes."
This rather piqued Gu Shengyinâs curiosity.
What kind of status does the Zhou family hold? Naturally, they wouldnât invite those itinerant fortune-tellers who rely solely on their speech.
They immediately sought out the most renowned First Exorcist Jiang Lan.
However, for Gu Shengyin, whether itâs the Li Family, Zhang Family, or Zhou Family, she only acknowledges money for work.
Soon, the car arrived at a garden.
Indeed, a garden.
Being able to possess such a garden in the Capital City is no longer something mere wealth can achieve.
Gu Shengyin walked all the way through.
Every plant and tree here was evidently the work of a renowned artist.
The middle-aged man kept observing Gu Shengyin along the way, now seeing her remain unfazed in the face of such a scene, he nodded approvingly in his heart.
He had hosted many visitors here, and few could see such lavishness without being amazed.
