Chapter 248: Chapter 248: Settled It For You!

Lou Qianxue knew that Gong Sunheng had good intentions, so she did not get angry. Instead, she said in a light tone, “President Gong, you don’t have to say anything more about this. I’ve already decided.”

When Lou Potian and Lou Jingfeng heard this, their expressions turned strange.

Ever since Lou Potian saw Qianxue kill Jiang Huaicheng in a single blow, he had become inexplicably confident about Lou Qianxue. He felt that she could do everything. After all, she had exterminated the entire Prefectural Governor’s mansion on her own.

In stark contrast to him, Lou Jingfeng frowned. He wanted to convince Lou Qianxue against it, but after thinking about what he had done to her in the past, he knew he did not have the face to speak to her. He could only sigh.

He thought that Gong Sunheng was right, but Lou Qianxue was too stubborn!

“Miss Lou...”

Gong Sunheng still wanted to persuade her.

However, Lou Qianxue shook her head. “Anyway, I’m still young. I want to train my martial arts, practice alchemy, and refine weapons for a few years first. If I really can’t cope, I’ll specialize in alchemy.”

Gong Sunheng remembered that Lou Qianxue was just sixteen. She was indeed young, and youngsters were always full of passion. It was normal for them to wish to blindly learn something powerful. Hence, he reluctantly suppressed his disappointment and talked about something else. “Miss Lou, do you still remember that we had an agreement in the past?”

Lou Qianxue remembered.

When she had gone to train at Qingyun Mountain, she had met the young miss of Liuyun Prefecture’s Li Family, and a vicious battle had broken out. During that time, she had asked the pair of ‘Five Elements physique’ twins, Li Wen and Li Wu, to look for Gong Sunheng at Qingyun City’s Alchemy Union.

Hence, she owed Gong Sunheng a favor.

On that day in the past, Gong Sunheng had said that he hoped for her to become an alchemist and help him.

Lou Qianxue regained her senses. “What do you mean?”

“We can bring that thing forward.”

“What thing?”

Gong Sunheng looked at the shocked and curious faces of the crowd surrounding them and smiled. “Let’s talk about it after returning to Baicao Garden.”

“Okay.”

Gong Sunheng liked Lou Qianxue’s cool personality. “To let you help me without any distractions, I have already settled everything regarding the Prefectural Governor’s mansion.”

Lou Qianxue was stunned. “What do you mean?”

Gong Sunheng’s handsome face revealed an amiable smile. “Since I knew that you’ll kill Jiang Huaicheng, I did my preparations. Don’t worry. Soon, there is going to be a new Governor in the Liuyun Prefecture... What do you think about the An Family? Shall we let An Shaoning’s father be the new Prefectural Governor?”

This tone...

Gong Sunheng was speaking as if Liuyun Prefecture was his backyard and he could arrange for anyone he wanted to be the Prefectural Governor!

The crowd was shocked, and they looked at Gong Sunheng in disbelief, trying to guess his identity. Even Lou Qianxue was surprised.

The An Family was indeed a good choice. At least, An Shaoning was a smart guy.

Lou Qianxue suppressed her surprise and nodded.

“Although you’re the person I chose, I can only help you with this much. You have to depend on yourself to tackle the Zhu Family.”

A malicious expression flashed past Lou Qianxue’s eyes. “I know. Thank you.”

Gong Sunheng maintained his smile. “I have already said what I wanted to. I’ll take my leave now and wait for you at the Baicao Garden.”

“Okay.”

After Gong Sunheng left, Master Yan wanted to follow him. However, he hesitated and did not immediately leave. He first went to Lou Qianxue and asked, “Miss Lou, is there anything that I can help you with?”

Gong Sunheng was his master, and Gong Sunheng treated Lou Qianxue like an equal. Naturally, his attitude to her should also be respectful.

Lou Qianxue remembered what Lou Xiaoxiao and Lou Potian had mentioned the other day, and she frowned. “You have a large network in this area. Why don’t you help me look for Lou Family’s juniors who have gone missing in Qingyun Mountain? Bring them to meet me at Liuyun Prefecture!”
