I said, "It's always a good idea to carry a bit more money with you."
Gu Lingfeng looked at me in confusion and asked, "Why are you being so nice to me?"
I replied calmly, "You helped me deal with Lu Yitau, so it's only right that I repay you."
Gu Lingfeng hesitated for a moment, took the banknote, carefully tucked it into his pocket, bowed to me, and turned to leave.
Liu Liu came out from behind and looked at Gu Lingfeng's retreating figure with concern. "My lord, do you really trust him?"
I replied coolly, "No."
Liu Liu was taken aback. "Then why did you let him go?"
I said, "Follow him. If he leaves Golden Lake, then that's that. If he doesn't leave, you just..."
I made a gesture as if cutting off a head.
Liu Liu understood and nodded. "Yes, my lord."
He hurriedly left.
I murmured, "A man without poison is not a true man; a small-minded person is not a gentleman. Gu Lingfeng, you mustn't blame me."
Mou Xiaoning and Sister Thirteen arrived at a courtyard at the foot of Qiong Mountain.
An old man led them and prepared a vehicle to take them away from here.
When Mou Xiaoning and Sister Thirteen entered the Qian Residence, a sudden scream echoed from inside.
Mou Xiaoning's expression changed. "What's going on in there?!"
He quickly drew his knife and rushed inside.
Sister Thirteen closely followed him, also drawing her gun.
They rushed into the courtyard and saw a person lying on the ground—it was Gu Lingfeng!
Liu Liu walked out from inside and smiled at Mou Xiaoning, saying, "Master Mu, you’re back?"
Mou Xiaoning looked at him in shock, "You... how did you get here?"
Liu Liu replied, "The master sent me to deal with this person."
Mou Xiaoning asked in confusion, "Why... why?"
Liu Liu explained, "This person is a disaster if left alive, so I helped resolve this issue."
Mou Xiaoning hesitated for a moment and asked, "Does the master know about this?"
Liu Liu said, "I haven't had the chance to tell him yet."
Mou Xiaoning urged, "Then you should hurry back; I'll take care of things here."
Liu Liu nodded, "Alright, I’ll leave now."
He hurriedly departed.
Sister Thirteen watched his retreating figure and worriedly said, "Xiao Ning, do you think the master will be angry about what he did?"
Mou Xiaoning forced a smile and replied, "I can't say for sure; we'll see when we get back."
I sat in the study, listening to Liu Liu's report.
After he finished recounting the events, he cautiously asked, "Master, you... you won't blame me for taking matters into my own hands, will you?"
I coldly stared at him and said, "You really have some nerve!"
Liu Liu gave an awkward smile and replied, "You... you’re not angry with me?"
I frowned and said, "Of course I blame you!"
Liu Liu was startled and asked, "You... you blame me?"
I replied, "Although you handled this matter efficiently, you didn't consider the consequences!"
Liu Liu was taken aback and asked, "What... what consequences?"
I said, "Gu Lingfeng's wife is in Haining. If you kill him, what will happen to his wife?"
Liu Liu hesitated and said, "Do you mean...?"
I continued, "His wife is in Haining, indulging in gambling and debts. How do you expect her to pay off those debts?!"
Liu Liu opened his mouth but couldn't find the words. "This... this..."
I glared at him and said, "Haining is our territory. You're adding another bad debt to our area. What are you thinking?!"
Liu Liu remained silent.
I waved my hand impatiently and said, "You can go now. I need some time alone."
