Country M.
City T.
The plane landed at precisely 3:00 PM local time.
As she emerged from the airport, Nan Yan sent a message to Qin Yi, informing him that she had arrived at T City Airport.
Qin Yi had been waiting for her message, and upon receiving it, he sent her a location to meet him.
Afterward, Qin Yi took a screenshot of the message and sent it to Qin Lu.
When Qin Lu saw the screenshot from Qin Yi, he looked darkly at the young girl beside him.
Having learned of Nan Yan’s flight details and destination, he had confirmed that she was the person Qin Yi had been communicating with on the Dark
Realm.
The young girl had given him quite a surprise this time.
Well, it was quite significant.
The T-1 reagent was something that probably only a handful of people in the world could obtain.
However, she had brought out two vials at once.
The first one had been discovered by him when he realized that Nan Yan was the “Diving Fish” on the Dark Realm and investigated accordingly.
It seemed that the secrets surrounding the young girl had grown a bit more. Qin Lu silently curved his lips into a smile and casually stopped the girl who was about to leave.
Then, effortlessly, he brought her in front of him, face to face.
He placed his phone in front of her and lightly asked, “Yan Yan, why didn’t you tell your brother you wanted the Fire Flintstone and Blood Lingzhi Mushroom?”
Nan Yan glanced at the screenshot on his screen, then looked up at him with an inscrutable expression in her eyes.
She stared at him, saying nothing.
Qin Lu gently stroked her head and inquired, “Are you angry?”
“No,” Nan Yan replied emotionlessly with just a word.
She wasn’t angry, but she felt a strange sense of discomfort in her heart.
At this point, how could she not have guessed that Qin Lu had already figured out her purpose for coming here?
But, since he knew it was her, he still let her make this trip for nothing.
Wasn’t that a bit too much?
It truly validated what Shen Junqing had said: “Men can be such dogs!”
“Yan Yan, let me clarify that I didn’t intend to keep it from you.”
Qin Lu lowered his posture, put away his phone, and held her hand, explaining gently, “At the beginning, I didn’t know that the person who wanted these two things was you. The person who contacted you was one of my subordinates, responsible for managing these items. So when he asked me if I wanted to sell, 1 truly didn’t mow It was you.”
“Later, you mentioned it yourself, saying you’d be coming to Country M in a few days, which made me suspicious if it could be just a coincidence.”
“Then, after we set a date and location for three days from now, I confirmed it was you.”
Nan Yan’s clear eyes watched him, raising an eyebrow. “And then? If you knew it was me, why did you still let me make this trip?”
Qin Lu’s voice carried a smile. “Well, because on my end, there are quite a few treasures I’d like to show you and see if there’s anything you need.”
“Of course, there’s also a selfish reason. I wanted you to spend more time with me.”
Spend time with him?
Did he mean during the more than ten-hour flight back and forth?
Nan Yan felt quite speechless.
Qin Lu gazed at her with warmth in his eyes.
The young girl didn’t seem angry, but she appeared slightly uncomfortable.
A faint smile graced his lips as he held her hand and said, “Let’s go, first, we’ll have a meal, and after that, we’ll collect the items.’ The restaurant had been prearranged by Qin Yi.
He had been waiting there for quite some time.
When Qin Lu and Nan Yan entered the restaurant, he hurriedly approached.
“Young Master, Miss Nan!”
With respectful greetings, he carefully stole a glance at Nan Yan.
As it turned out, the woman who could make the Young Master act out of character was no ordinary person.
She was undoubtedly a fairy!
No wonder Wu Yue had been praising Miss Nan’s excellence and strength in their group chat.
He had thought Wu Yue was exaggerating.
But seeing her in person, he now understood that Wu Yue hadn’t exaggerated at all.
To have such a firm hold over the Young Master was something an ordinary person could never achieve!
“Yan Yan, this is Qin Yi, the person you’ve been chatting with on the Dark Realm,” Qin Lu introduced on behalf of Nan Yan.
“Miss Nan, nice to meet you!” Qin Yi quickly greeted her once again.
Nan Yan nodded slightly, “Hello.”
“Young Master, Miss Nan, the meals have been ordered in advance. Should I have them served now?”
“Yes, please.”
Qin Lu looked at the young girl’s face, restraining the urge to pinch her cheeks, and softly said, “Yan Yan didn’t eat much on the plane, so please eat plenty later.”
Qin Yi sat at the dining table, wide-eyed the entire time.
He couldn’t believe that the high and mighty Master Qin would be so caring.
It wasn’t just pampering Miss Nan like a girlfriend; it was more like pampering a daughter!
While he was happy for his Young Master finding a partner, it was just too much for him!
But thinking about it, he realized that he would have to endure witnessing this for only a short while, whereas Wu Yue practically accompanied the Young Master all the time.
So, Wu Yue was getting an abundance of this…
After the meal, Qin Yi became the driver, taking the two of them back to where he lived.
He resided in a storage facility.
All those treasures were stored there.
Upon entering, Qin Yi pointed to a silver box on the desk and said, “The Fire Flintstone and Blood Lingzhi Mushroom are already prepared for Miss Nan and are in this security box.”
“We’ll take a look at those two items in a moment.” Qin Lu held Nan Yan’s hand and signaled to Qin Yi, “Open the door.”
Qin Yi quickly fetched the key and went to open the door.
The heavy door slowly swung open, and Nan Yan felt like she had entered a treasure trove.
The collectibles gathered by Qin Lu were naturally priceless and invaluable.
These were not items fit to be stored in the eyes of ordinary people.
World-class paintings, ceramics, jade carvings by master craftsmen…
She even saw a diamond the size of a human head inside a glass case.
And there was gold filling half of the warehouse.
And firearms…
Qin Lu released Nan Yan’s hand and lightly patted her head.
“Take whatever you want, choose for yourself.”
“If you fancy something, take it with you.”
Nan Yan wasn’t particularly enthusiastic about these things.
Even though any item from here, taken outside, would be a treasure sought after by billionaires, she saw them as useless, space-occupying clutter.
They were not even as valuable as a simple medicinal herb.
At least medicinal herbs could be used to heal and save lives, but these items had no practical use.
After looking around, Nan Yan turned back and asked, “Are there any other medicinal herbs here?”
Qin Lu replied calmly, “Qin Yi, bring out all the medicinal herbs.”
“The medicinal herbs aren’t here; they are in a dedicated storage room.” Qin Yi hurriedly went to open another small room.
Inside, there were various rare and precious medicinal herbs, as well as medicines with various effects.
Nan Yan casually picked up a bottle, opened the cap, and leaned in to smell it. “Brother, do you have an alchemist under your command?”
“Yes, indeed, there is one. If you’re interested, I can introduce you two to each other when you have the time.”
Qin Lu smiled and then gazed at her, “Little one, can you tell me where you got the T-1 from?”
