Gu Jinlin would not allow Gu Qingyao to deny his offer. He would definitely not be willing to let Gu Qingyao walk back alone on such a hot day as she would tan.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Gu Jinlin placed a straw hat on Gu Qingyao’s head before telling her to get on the bicycle.
Sweetness filled Gu Qingyao’s heart as she sat at the backseat obediently and Gu Jinlin sent her back.
“Don’t worry, I had a full lunch and I am full of energy.”
But eventually, Gu Qingyao still did not let Gu Jinlin send her back home and instead asked him to drop her off at the marketplace.
She said she wanted to walk around the department store.
Gu Jinlin did not doubt her and simply let her down as this place was not far from home.
Gu Qingyao did not go to the department store but headed to a black market nearby.
There was a black market around the place.
The owner of that ruby necklace which she had been thinking about was there.
She walked into a remote alley and went into her interspace to change her clothes. She dressed in old clothes and smeared dirt on her face, making her look completely unlike the fair and delicate lady from before.
Accompanying her outfit was a little basket to be carried on the back. Previously in her interspace, she had already prepared many items and was just waiting for the time to trade for the remaining bracelet, rings, earrings and brooch from this old man.
That old man did not seem to be in need of money and he probably owned a lot of gold and whatnot, thus he would sell these gemstones in exchange for food.
Although Gu Qingyao had only been to this black market once, she made several laps around the place and knew the general situation.
This time, she ignored everyone else and looked for that old man first.
She did not know if he would still trade his items after getting so many good items the other time.
Gu Qingyao could only try her luck.
After searching a round, she indeed found that old man at a corner.
The old man was donned in patched-up clothes and looked extremely frail and pitiful…
Gu Qingyao’s lips twitched. This fellow was too cunning.
Meanwhile, Old Master Qin had already noticed Gu Qingyao from the start. He was leaning against the wall as though he was asleep and when he lifted his eyelids, he saw that Gu Qingyao spotted him and immediately closed his eyes once again.
Although this little girl was dressed differently from the other day and her face was smeared with dirt, his sharp eyes could still tell that it was her with one look.
She had a unique aura to her and for some reason, he felt that this girl was not ordinary and might perhaps be the unexpected blessing of him and his wife.
Carrying the little basket, Gu Qingyao walked to Old Master Qin. “Grandpa!”
Old Master Qin opened his eyes and looked at her sluggishly. “You’re here? You want my items again?”
Gu Qingyao’s lips twitched. This old fellow did it deliberately.
Gu Qingyao smiled. “Grandpa, you definitely know what I’m here for since you’re so smart. I obtained some good stuff with much difficulty. Take a look?”
With a prideful expression, Old Master Qin followed her to a place without anyone where Gu Qingyao took out a jar and opened the lid. The aroma wafted in the air immediately.
Old Master Qin gulped. How aromatic!
Gu Qingyao smiled. “It’s aromatic, isn’t it! I made this especially. It’s a medicinal cuisine using a home-bred chicken! It’s best for elderlies like you to eat. Extremely delicious and aromatic chicken soup.”
Truthfully speaking, Old Master Qin dared not make such things by himself even if he had the ingredients.
