Flipping the Table

The back hall was silent, with only the sound of a falling needle.

Gu Wenbang stared intently at Chen An’nian, his expression constantly changing.

After a while, Gu Wenbang sighed softly, “How did Yaoxuan Spirit Pill Master know that my Gu Family has a page of golden paper?”

Chen An’nian flicked his finger casually and said, “The royal family merely acted as an intermediary.”

“I was entrusted by Chen An’nian to come to the Gu Family and heal the family head.”

“Chen An’nian’s request is precisely this page of golden paper.”

Unexpected yet within reason.

Gu Wenbang shook his head, puzzled, “Why would Yaoxuan Spirit Pill Master listen to Chen An’nian?”

“As long as it’s not that page of golden paper, whatever Yaoxuan Spirit Pill Master wants, I can promise on behalf of the Gu Family.”

Chen An’nian asked softly, “In the eyes of the Gu Family head, is this page of golden paper more important than all the people in the Gu Family?”
