Gu Siyu

Seeing that Qin Ning had agreed, a wave of wild joy washed over the two men.

"Brother, it's getting late. I promised Sister Gu we would go out to eat today. Should we head out now?" Qin Fei asked.

Qin Ning nodded. "That works. You should go wash up first. You've been moving house all day and must have worked up quite a sweat."

With that, he turned his gaze toward Xia Fei and Zhou Ping'an.

"Understood, Young Master Qin."

Hearing this, joy lit up their faces, knowing that Qin Ning intended to bring them along.

On the fifth and top floor of the villa, there were two large bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, occupied by Qin Ning and Qin Fei.

The four floors below each had their own bathrooms as well, so there was no need to queue up for a shower.

Qin Ning sat on the sofa on the first floor, watching television.

After waiting for about half an hour, Qin Fei, Zhou Ping'an, and Xia Fei finished their showers one after another and returned to the living room.

"I brewed some tea. Have a cup each, and then we'll head out to eat." Qin Ning pointed to a pot of hot tea prepared on the coffee table.

"Okay, brother."

Without overthinking it, Qin Fei replied and sat down on the sofa, reaching out to pour the tea.

Xia Fei quickly hurried over, grinning as he said, "Xiao Fei, let me do it, let me do it!"

Zhou Ping'an, who had been half a beat too slow, couldn't help but grumble inwardly. This kid was way too fast, even fighting him over pouring tea.

"How do you feel?"

Once the three had finished their cups of tea, Qin Ning asked with a smile.

"This is amazing!"

Qin Fei was astonished. Originally, running back and forth all day had left her exhausted. All she wanted to do was get a good night's sleep, but since she had promised Sister Gu to go out for dinner, she couldn't break her word and could only force herself to go.

To her surprise, after drinking this cup of tea, she suddenly felt incredibly refreshed. Not only had all her fatigue vanished, but every bit of discomfort in her body had quietly disappeared without a trace.

"This..."

It wasn't just Qin Fei; Zhou Ping'an and Xia Fei felt the exact same way.

They stared blankly at their empty teacups, finding it absolutely unbelievable.

This was especially true for Xia Fei, who had helped move things and clean up all day. He had already been feeling a bit sore in his back and shoulders, but now, after a single cup of tea, that discomfort was completely gone.

"Brother, what kind of tea is this? It's so miraculous!" Qin Fei couldn't help but ask.

"If you like it, drinking it every day won't be a problem. I have plenty here," Qin Ning smiled faintly.

He wasn't exaggerating.

These were all items he had brought back from the cultivation world, stored within his body in a place called the Spirit Sea.

The Spirit Sea was the origin source of a cultivator. Once a certain realm was reached, it could also possess storage capabilities.

Therefore, in the cultivation world, usually only low-level cultivators used storage bags. Someone like Qin Ning stored everything directly in his Spirit Sea.

"Wouldn't that be too extravagant?" Qin Fei was dumbfounded.

She knew her brother was extraordinary—the only cultivator in this world—but tea like this was definitely no ordinary item. How could they afford to consume it every day?

However, what Qin Fei didn't know was that inside Qin Ning's Spirit Sea space, such tea leaves were piled up like mountains. Let alone Qin Fei drinking it every day, even if the entire population of Liu City drank it daily, they wouldn't be able to finish it in a hundred years.

"It's not extravagant."

Qin Ning smiled and shook his head, then stood up. "Let's go. When we have time, I'll tell you more about these things."

"Okay."

She nodded obediently, standing up and taking Qin Ning's arm. "I haven't seen Sister Gu in a long time either. For the past two years, I've just been transferring the rent directly to the bank card she provided."

Chatting as they walked, the four of them arrived at the garage.

There were two cars.

Qin Fei drove her new car with Qin Ning, while Xia Fei and Zhou Ping'an took the other.

"I've sent you the location. Just follow the address," Qin Fei rolled down her window as they pulled out of the garage, calling out to Zhou Ping'an and Xia Fei in the car behind.

"Got it, Xiao Fei," Xia Fei, who was driving, waved in response.

Before long, in the southern part of Liu City, Qin Fei led the group into the lobby of a restaurant.

"Hello, Sister Gu, I've arrived. Yes, my brother is here too, and I brought two friends. Okay, I know where it is..."

Qin Fei dialed Gu Siyu's number.

After hanging up, she led Qin Ning and the others toward the elevators.

Taking the elevator to the third floor, they stopped in front of a small private dining room. Qin Fei checked the room number and knocked gently on the door.

A voice soon came from inside, "Come in."

The group walked in. The private room wasn't very large, looking like it could seat around ten people.

At that moment, a beautiful woman wearing jeans and a crisp white shirt stood up, smiling as she walked over to greet Qin Fei and the others.

Gu Siyu.

A Liu City local and an only child. In her early years, she had coasted through life collecting rent, but later, due to her parents' poor health, the family business was entirely handed over to her.

Over the years, through her hard work, Gu Siyu had expanded the family business significantly. Today, she was considered one of the few formidable businesswomen in Liu City. Her family's assets were nearing a hundred million. Although it couldn't compare to a multi-billion corporation like the Lanmeng Group, there weren't many who could surpass her.

"Sister Gu."

Qin Fei walked over and gave her a gentle hug.

"Xiao Fei, long time no see. You've grown even prettier than before."

Gu Siyu smiled, then looked at Qin Ning. "I heard from Xiao Fei that you woke up a few days ago. It looks like you're recovering well. I visited you in the hospital once before, and you look much better now."

"Hello, Sister Gu," Qin Ning nodded with a smile.

"Everyone, please sit down," Gu Siyu quickly guided them to their seats before looking at Zhou Ping'an and Xia Fei.

She didn't recognize them. Although she had some wealth, compared to the Xia family, the wealthiest in Liu City, or the Lanmeng Group, it was like comparing heaven and earth. The three of them didn't move in the same circles and had never interacted before.

Qin Fei smiled and introduced them. "Sister Gu, let me introduce you. This is Zhou Ping'an, and this is Xia Fei. They are my friends. I just moved today, and they helped out the whole time, so I brought them along. Please don't mind."

"Not at all. Your friends are my friends," Gu Siyu waved her hand, naturally not minding at all.

She had already ordered the food. When Qin Fei called her just now, Gu Siyu had asked the waiter to start serving, though it would still be a little while before the dishes arrived.

While waiting for the food, Gu Siyu asked Qin Fei, "We haven't seen each other in years. Is work going well? I asked you to come work at my company before, but you didn't want to."

"Work is going pretty well. I haven't run into any issues."

Qin Fei asked in return, "What about you, Sister Gu? Managing such a large company must be very exhausting, right?"
