“The most talented woman in the younger generation of the Prefectural Governor’s mansion?”
Lou Qianxue shook her head.
“So-so!”
She then turned around and shut the door, shutting the screams and angry curses of the master and servant outside the door in the process.
Peace finally returned to her world.
Lou Qianxue entered the house with a satisfied expression and began to cultivate.
Half an hour passed like this.
People finally found the two severely injured women who were immobilized because of the Mountain Splitting Fist and carried them back for treatment.
The news that his granddaughter had been beaten soon reached Fifth Elder’s words, and he immediately became furious.
“Outrageous! Who did this? Are they tired of living?”
“Fifth Elder!” A young servant hurriedly reported the news with a pale face. “Lou Qianxue! It’s Lou Qianxue, Lou Qianxue from Qingyun City!”
“Qingyun City?” Those words stunned Fifth Elder, Lou Youwei, and he then asked with a furious expression, “Did you say Qingyun City? Has that old man Lou Potian come back? When did this happen, and why don’t I know?”
Fifth Elder was the elder in the Prefectural Governor’s mansion who had repeatedly prevented Lou Potian from returning. For this reason, no one informed him that the Lou Family of Qingyun City had returned after their agreement. Moreover, they intentionally kept it from him.
He had been unaware of it until now, after Lou Qianxue beat his granddaughter.
“They only came back yesterday.”
When Fifth Elder heard this, a bloodthirsty expression appeared on his old face.
In his gloomy eyes, a fierce light flickered. “That old man Lou Potian actually brought someone who hurt my granddaughter! Hmph, great! It so happens that I have old bills to settle with him! Let’s go. Lead the way. I’m going to kill the old man!”
“Elder, elder, you can’t.” The young man on the side profusely sweated as he hurriedly explained the situation where the Prefectural Governor had slapped Third Young Master for Lou Qianxue the day before.
“What?” The Fifth Elder exclaimed in disbelief. “What are you talking about? The Prefectural Governor actually slapped Third Young Master for that b*tch?”
Fifth Elder knew exactly how much the Prefectural Governor loved Third Young Master. He forced himself to calm down. “I have heard about this. You can retreat first.”
When the young man left, Fifth Elder frowned and paced back and forth with a sullen expression. “The Prefectural Governor actually hit Third Young Master over that b*tch? It seems that the little b*tch is not a simple person. I can’t mess with her yet. I should check on the Prefectural Governor’s attitude toward her first…”
The next day arrived.
Early in the morning, Fifth Elder Lou Youwei went to meet the Prefectural Governor Lou Jinglei.
After a series of complaints for a while, they immediately went into the main topic.
“As an elder, for the sake of the Lou Family, even if I don’t give my whole life for it, I work very hard. However, my granddaughter was bullied by someone from the side family. This is too unreasonable… Also, Leader, they just came here yesterday, and they are already being so presumptuous. They are totally disregarding you. Who knows, in the next few days, they might even—”
“Okay, I have already heard about the matter with your granddaughter Qingyun.” Lou Jinglei’s expression was cold, and disappointment was evident in his voice. “To be honest, I’m surprised. You could say that I watched Qingyun as she grew up. She has always been so good. This time, she was so careless that she could not even beat a little girl who came from a side family.”
Lou Jinglei was still talking when he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.
“Leader, Leader.”
The only person who dared to barge in here in the Prefectural Governor’s mansion and yell was Steward Lou, whom Lou Jinglei valued and trusted.
“Steward Lou? Why do you look so panicked? What happened?”
“Leader! People from the Alchemy Union have arrived at the mansion, and they also sent a lot of things here!”
“Hmm?” Lou Jinglei was stunned, and he immediately got up. “What are you saying? The Alchemy Union? Why would they come here? What have they sent? Hurry, quickly let them in!”
