Chapter 723: 723 Visit the Black Market Again

[Mo Weiran: Miss, I’m begging you, don’t let her come back again!]

Mo Weiran indicated that he was truly afraid.

[Miss Gu: Her resentment is strong, and the cause of her death remains unclear, you can look into her cause of death, and once it’s been clarified, she won’t come back]

This was a resentful spirit, obviously holding deep hatred before death. To allow her to enter the cycle of reincarnation, it was imperative to ascertain the cause of her death and dispel her resentment.

After Gu Zhiqi sent out the message, Mo Weiran quickly replied.

[Mo Weiran: Okay! I’ll investigate as soon as I get back!]

Seeing this, Gu Zhiqi didn’t reply to the message, but Mo Weiran didn’t seem to have any intention of stopping and sent another message.

[Mo Weiran: Miss, she won’t come back during this period, right?]

[Miss Gu: Do a good job investigating, and she won’t go looking for you]

If it fell into her hands, she definitely wouldn’t return to him. Such words were only meant to make him investigate Qin Daimai’s cause of death as soon as possible.

[Mo Weiran: Alright! Don’t worry, I’ll investigate thoroughly!]

This time, Gu Zhiqi truly didn’t reply to the message.

In the evening, Gu Zhiqi made another trip to the black market.

There was a meeting in the Ever Winning Army, and Su Yunling and the others were attending, so Gu Zhiqi went alone.

“Miss Gu.” Just as she arrived at the entrance of Charm Shadow Bar, a somewhat familiar voice sounded from behind her.

Gu Zhiqi stopped in her tracks and turned to look, discovering it was Yun Yan, one of Su Yunling’s subordinates.

“Is something the matter?”

Yun Yan took several large strides to catch up to Gu Zhiqi and stand before her, then respectfully said, “Sir has asked me to accompany you into the black market.”

Having someone with her or not made no difference to Gu Zhiqi. She nodded at Yun Yan and stepped into the Charm Shadow Bar.

With the bar crowded, Yun Yan walked ahead of Gu Zhiqi, clearing the way for her.

Once inside the black market, Yun Yan continued to make way for Gu Zhiqi, ensuring that no one touched her.

Watching the bustling crowd, Gu Zhiqi’s mind suddenly flashed to the scene of Su Yunling holding her in his arms the night before.

Unconsciously, she became lost in thought.

“Miss Gu, we’ve arrived.” Yun Yan brought Gu Zhiqi back to the present.

Gu Zhiqi raised her eyes and saw that they had reached Twilight Returns Pharmacy.

In the pharmacy, Mu Huai had been standing at the counter since the beginning.

He fiddled with a pen, propping his chin and scribbling in the ledger book, not as bored as the day before. Instead, after a couple of strokes, he would glance toward the door.

Burying his head to draw again, and then looking up after finishing, he repeated this several times.

Eventually, he simply stopped scribbling in the ledger book, tossed the brush aside, propped his chin, and stared at the door with a slight hint of anxiety and anticipation in his eyes.

Although the pharmacy was at the end of the street and had visitors before, today there was not a single customer.

Mu Huai became more and more anxious as he waited, and eventually, stepped from behind the counter and walked toward the door.

He had only taken a few steps when two figures appeared at the door. While they were cloaked in black robes and wearing veils, it was clear one was burly and the other slender.

Mu Huai couldn’t tell if these were the visitors from the previous day. He stopped in his tracks and tentatively said, “You…?”

Mu Huai had barely uttered a word when the slender figure produced a plastic bag, offering it to him while speaking, “The Vermilion Pill you requested.”

Mu Huai remembered the young lady’s voice was pleasant to hear. As soon as she spoke, he recognized her—the same young lady who had visited the night before.

Mu Huai was initially stunned, then hurriedly reached out to take the plastic bag, his face filled with disbelief, “You… actually managed to refine it?”
