Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 1691: Where Was the Mistake?
Actually, Jiang Shiqi also knew that Su Chen was intentionally trying to cheer her up.
"By the way, I might be leaving in a day or two."
After a moment, she spoke.
"Huh, why is that?"
Su Chen instinctively asked upon hearing this. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
"I came here just wanting some peace and quiet for a while."
Jiang Shiqi casually laughed:
"It's been so many days, it's time to go back."
"Alright then!"
Su Chen nodded. Actually, Jiang Shiqi's departure didn't surprise him.
Though having spent some time together, hearing it all of a sudden felt a bit abrupt!
However, probably today's visit from her uncle has some influence!
"But during this time, being here and getting to know you has made me very happy!"
Jiang Shiqi looked at Su Chen and smiled sincerely.
"Meeting someone as beautiful as you makes me even happier!"
Su Chen jested, then said with a smile:
"As I've said before, if you ever encounter any difficulties, feel free to find me!"
"Sure, thank you!"
Jiang Shiqi nodded with a smile.
Of course, she didn't really take it to heart; in her mind, Su Chen's might was modest, without any prominent background – what kind of difficulties could he solve?
She agreed with a smile, just not wanting to disregard his sentiment!
After a while, Su Chen left...
...
Time flew by six days, and Jiang Shiqi had long gone!
During these few days, Su Chen naturally spent most of his time in cultivation or comprehending the two divine skills!
It must be said, the time in Yunxiao Continent had been quite fruitful, especially having unlocked the bloodline!
It's known that the unlocking of his bloodline has brought immense benefits to Su Chen, primarily the reappearance of the Fire Spirit!
The reappearance of the Fire Spirit not only allowed him to craft higher-grade elixirs but also gave him a powerful trump card!
Additionally, the bloodline itself boosts his strength to some degree!
Today, after cultivating for several hours, Su Chen felt a bit bored and decided to go out for a casual stroll.
After all, with Jiang Shiqi gone, finding someone to chat with became impossible!
...
Meanwhile, in a side hall of the Lu Family in Guangping City.
Family Head Lu Yu sat in a large chair; standing before him is a young man, his son Lu Kang!
"Speak, what's going on?"
Lu Yu asked mildly, but his face looked displeased!
This period, he encountered a bottleneck and had been in seclusion for cultivation, with no one daring to disturb him!
This closure ended just two days ago, and today he happened to instruct someone in the Cave Void Realm Second Turn to handle a task!
Unexpectedly, the report said this person has been missing for some time!
Not only him, another in the Cave Void Realm Second Turn vanished almost simultaneously!
Lu Yu immediately sensed something was amiss, and with some thoughts, guessed it's related to his son!
If it involved other core members, they would've promptly reported to him, without hiding anything!
Only with his son wouldn't anyone speak!
After all, that's the Young Master; if the Young Master doesn't mention, who would want more trouble with this matter?!
Seeing Lu Kang's demeanor, Lu Yu became even more certain of his speculation!
...
At this moment, Lu Kang dared not hide and detailed the events at Listening Wind Pavilion some time ago and the subsequent happenings!
Actually, Lu Kang initially withheld it for shame, coincidentally with his father in seclusion!
In his view, sending someone to settle the guy was all it took!
However, unexpectedly, two Cave Void Realm Second Turn experts died!
No need to think about it, that young man is surely alive and well!
Though Lu Kang knew his father wouldn't do anything to him, the fall of two Cave Void experts was no trivial matter!
Indeed, fact is, even if his father hadn't asked him, he planned to reveal it!
Firstly, such matter couldn't be hidden; with his father just out of seclusion, it wouldn't take days to know!
Secondly, he hoped his father could clean his disgrace!
These days, every thought of that youthful face made him grind his teeth with hate!
"Sorry, Father, I was wrong!"
Lu Kang said weakly, with some anxiety in his heart!
"You were wrong, do you know where you went wrong?"
Lu Yu lightly spoke.
Hearing this, Lu Kang fell silent!
Honestly, though he just admitted his error, to pinpoint it was truly unclear!
"Your error is, fearing just because two have died?"
Lu Yu scoffed coldly.
At this remark, Lu Kang looked at his father in disbelief, sparks flashing in his eyes!
"Consider this, if others knew, how would they view our Lu Family?"
Lu Yu continued:
"Your halt didn't just lose two Cave Void experts, more crucially, it tarnishes our Lu Family's face and others' awe towards us!
"Father?!"
Hearing this, Lu Kang became agitated:
"You mean..."
"That young man must die!"
Lu Yu declared coldly, an aura of murder spreading!
...
Walking through the streets of Guangping City, Su Chen casually gazed around.
Now, having been in Guangping City for some time, he's gotten a certain understanding of it!
Though not very familiar, it's not as alien as in the beginning!
After wandering for an hour, Su Chen felt somewhat bored and decided to head back.
Returning to the mansion, he resumed comprehending the two divine skills!
After several hours of insight, he continued to cultivate...
...
He cultivated until the following morning!
Then, casually prepared breakfast, eating alone.
After breakfast, just as he was about to resume his cultivation, someone entered from outside; it was He Qishan, who hadn't been seen for days!
"I guessed you'd still be home!"
Rushing in, He Qishan remarked hurriedly:
"Quick, come with me; if we delay, it won't be there!"
"Why all the rush?"
Su Chen curiously asked.
"Obviously you don't know!"
He Qishan replied:
"Today is the reservation day for Human Level High Grade elixirs at Yuntong Commerce Guild!"
"Previously, Yuntong Commerce Guild released Human Level Low and Middle Grade elixirs, their effects vastly superior to elixirs of the same level, thus sparking immediate sensation upon Human Level High Grade release!"
"Today, Guangping City's wealthy came in droves!"
Su Chen realized this upon hearing and figured the timing seemed about right!
