His eyes were firmer than anyone else’s, and his tone was unquestionable.
“Miss Gu, no matter what you say, 1 must repay this kindness.”
For Guo Guo’s illness, he had almost spent all his family’s wealth, but he still could not find a good treatment. If he had not met Gu Man, Guo Guo’s life would probably have ended soon.
So, was it something that a stone could repay?
Seeing that she could not persuade him, Gu Man did not continue.
The fog in the wooden house behind her gradually dissipated. Only then did Gu Man turn around and open the door.
Inside, Guo Guo, who was lying on the bed, was sitting up. She shook her head and looked at the scene in front of her, thinking that she had arrived in a fairyland.
If it weren’t for the familiar feel of the furniture beside her and the shadowy figure at the door, she would have thought she was still asleep.
However, the fatigue on her body had subsided a lot. She felt much more energetic.
When the old man saw Guoguo sitting on the bed, he couldn’t help but walk over quickly and sit by the bed.
“Guo Guo, how do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
Guo Guo shook her head. On the contrary, she didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, she felt relaxed.
Gu Man placed the herbs she had chosen on the table.
“You have to make it for her every day.”
After saying this, Gu Man did not stay in the room for long. She had already seen Guo Guo’s condition today. She thought that she would be able to attract the Gu worm out of her body immediately, but she did not expect that she had been working too hard recently and had hurt her body.
In the meantime, she had to slowly recuperate. Fortunately, she had brought more medicinal herbs.
After she left, the old man looked at Guo Guo in front of him with a smile and rubbed her head from time to time.
“Guo Guo, we must know that we have to think Miss Gu. They just said that they wanted to pay for your school fees.”
Guo Guo’s originally relaxed expression instantly tensed up because of these words. One never visits unless they need something. Gu Man must have other motives for treating her so well.
But Guo Guo really couldn’t understand. What was so good about this family?
“Guo Guo, don’t worry. They said there are specific organizations.”
Hearing this, Guo Guo’s suspended heart suddenly relaxed, but the corners of her mouth curled into a mocking smile.
Having been on the dark web for so many years, how could she not know that those so-called organizations were all evil organizations behind the scenes?
In fact, the money donated by others did not reach those who really needed money. Instead, it landed in the hands of capitalists.
Gu Man and Xiang Yin walked along the way back. Gu Man thought that since she had already come to the ghost market, she might as well visit Boss Zhao.
When they arrived at the Appraiser Hall, she met Boss Zhao’s gaze.
When Boss Zhao saw Gu Man, his face was filled with smiles as he jogged towards her with a smile.
It was obvious that he had encountered something happy.
“Miss Gu, you’re finally here. Come, come, let’s go to the back.”
Boss Zhao called for a worker to stand at the front desk while he brought Gu Man and Xiang Yin to the familiar courtyard.
He poured the tea into their cups, unable to suppress the smile on his face.
“After your pointers, I haven’t caused any big trouble recently, but I still used some small methods in the dark to fish in troubled waters. The Ghost King is now being questioned. I’ve found the culprit, he’s the person who started the rumors.”
Boss Zhao’s actions were truly soul-stirring. If he was not careful, he would lose his head.
Fortunately, nothing major happened in the end. Instead, there was a scapegoat in front of him. He even successfully aroused people’s doubts about the Ghost King.
Thinking that he was getting closer and closer to that position, Boss Zhao was in high spirits.
Gu Man nodded, her eyes filled with approval. Boss Zhao did not just listen to her and do nothing. Instead, he operated within a suitable range. He was a smart person.
“You’ve done a good job on this.. Do you have yellow talisman paper and a cinnabar pen here?”
