363 A Sense of Disgust
“Oh? So Miss Qin wants to see that set of silver needles?” Old Master Cheng stood up and said with a smile, “Alright, I’ll go get it.”
After Elder Cheng left, Gu Qing looked at Qin Xi apologetically. “I’m sorry. I didn’t know she would say that. In the past, I thought she was naive and simple, but I didn’t expect there was such a side to her. You, if you want to blame someone, blame me. I was the one who brought you here.”
Qin Xi didn’t care. “I’ve already said it. It’s fine.”
However, she seemed to have thought of something and said with a faint smile, “This girl probably thinks I’m competing with her for you. It’ll be fine when you explain it to her. Speaking of which, Dean Gu, you’re so lucky to have such a cute girl chasing after you. Don’t always put on a long face. You’ll attract more girls if you smile more.”
Gu Qing frowned. “You’ve misunderstood. I don’t like her. I just treat her as my sister.”
Qin Xi almost spat out her tea. Why did this sentence sound so familiar? She felt like she had heard it from a scumbag!
“You treat her like a sister, but she treats you like her man.” She rolled her eyes. “You didn’t refuse her, but instead you still called her sister. I really don’t understand you men.”
She hated this kind of indecisive man. He did not refuse or accept her. Instead, he just kept a distance, pretending to be cool. This kind of man was the most annoying.
Immediately, Qin Xi’s impression of Gu Qing fell to rock bottom.
Gu Qing also noticed the disgust that flashed across Qin Xi’s eyes. The corners of his mouth twitched. Just as he was about to explain, he saw Elder Cheng walking over with a wooden box. When he opened the wooden box, there were four rows of silver needles of different lengths lying inside. It seemed that they were well-preserved.
Qin Xi’s eyes narrowed and she immediately became interested. She took out one of the needles to touch it. She felt that the material was extraordinary. After thinking for a moment, she injected Mystic True Qi into the silver needle. The silver needle seemed to feel a suppressive energy and instantly vibrated a few times. A layer of glue melted and dripped down. The silver needle instantly emitted a terrifying cold light.
“What’s going on?”
This silver needle was obtained by Elder Cheng three years ago. Previously, he felt that the material was extraordinary, but after studying it for three years, he still couldn’t figure out what was special about this set of needles. He only knew that it was made of meteorite, so he kept it for now.
Now that it became a completely different needle after being touched by Qin Xi, he couldn’t help but be shocked. Even Gu Qing was shocked.
“Elder Cheng, does this set of silver needles have a name?” Qin Xi asked excitedly.
Elder Cheng thought for a moment and shook his head. “I accidentally obtained this set of silver needles three years ago when I went to the countryside. At that time, that family said that it was passed down from their ancestors and they didn’t know much about it. Miss Qin, do you know about this set of silver needles?”
Just now, she had used some unknown technique to remove the glue on the silver needles. She must know something.
Qin Xi shook her head and looked at the other silver needles lovingly. She explained, “I don’t know. I just feel that this set of silver needles is not simple.”
“Elder Cheng, I like this set of silver needles very much. I wonder if you want to sell it?” She asked the question she was most concerned about.
“Of course. I believe Gu Qing brought you here because he knows that this set of silver needles can be sold.”
Elder Cheng said frankly, “However, I want Miss Qin to do me a favor. If you are willing, I can even give you this set of silver needles for free.”
Qin Xi naturally knew what he was going to say. She smiled and said, “Elder Cheng, do you want to get rid of the evil aura in your body?”
Elder Cheng nodded, feeling nervous and uneasy. His eyes were filled with hope. “Miss Qin, can you do me the favor?”
“No problem!”
