“Mistress, you’ve finally returned,” Su Lie and Bo He greeted.

The person in the carriage also got down.

The person who came out of the front carriage was an elderly man with jet-black hair, sharp and alert eyes, and a high nose bridge.

He bore a striking resemblance to Gu Zhicheng.

He was the head of the Gu family, Gu Hongkang!

Although he had entrusted the leadership of the Gu family to his eldest son, he remained the most influential figure within the Gu family.

Compared to five years ago, he appeared even younger now, thanks to his advancement to the Saint Realm.

Once one reached the Saint Realm, their lifespan greatly increased, and living for several hundred years was not a problem.

Upon seeing Gu Qingluan, Gu Hongkang’s stern face broke into a smile. “Luan, it’s been a few years, and you’ve grown a lot. Well done!”

His gaze towards Gu Qingluan did not hide his admiration and contentment. Simultaneously, he felt a hint of unease deep within.

He had heard that this young girl had ascended to the Saint Realm less than a month ago, but judging from her aura, she didn’t seem like a recent Saint.

No wonder Gu Zhicheng couldn’t compete with her.

Even if Zhicheng’s cultivation was not lacking, he probably couldn’t defeat her.

Gu Qingluan’s expression remained distant. “Old Master, it’s been many years, and you haven’t changed much since then.”

Among the legitimate heirs of the Gu family, Gu Hongkang was relatively normal compared to the others.

He was indifferent to the original host, but he never mistreated or bullied her without reason. Of course, he never helped her either.

Gu Qingluan estimated that in his eyes, she was too insignificant to bother with, and he couldn’t be bothered to interact with her.

A glint flashed in Gu Hongkang’s eyes.

Before coming here, he had heard a lot about Gu Qingluan. Some family members had complained, and he had sent people to gather information. Even the Emperor had summoned him and emphasized her importance.

Seeing Gu Qingluan in person, he couldn’t help but be amazed.

In just six years, this seemingly ordinary girl had grown into what she was now, which was truly unexpected.

His political acumen far exceeded Gu Zhicheng’s, and he noticed that Gu Qingluan’s attitude was cold, with no respect towards him, and no signs of anger. He smiled and responded, “I’m getting old!”

Then, he shifted his attention to the younger ones beside him and scolded angrily, “What are you all standing there foolishly for? Come and apologize to your big sister!”

Gu Qingluan raised her eyebrows unexpectedly and looked at the resentful Gu Jinrong siblings.

So, Jing Feng said that they went to invite the old master to come out of seclusion?

Instead of bringing reinforcements, they ended up getting a scolding themselves?

Gu Qingluan looked at them with a forced smile.

As soon as the siblings met Gu Qingluan’s expression, they both shivered.

Her enigmatic smile had left a shadow in their hearts.

A surge of anger couldn’t help but well up within them.

Was she feeling triumphant right now?

Was she enjoying their embarrassment?

They had gone to fetch reinforcements, but it turned out that these reinforcements were like a mountain crashing down on their own heads. There couldn’t be anything more frustrating.

“Why are you still standing there?” Gu Hongkang urged sternly.

The siblings walked over, looking very aggrieved.

Gu Jinyue couldn’t speak, so Gu Jinrong spoke on their behalf, “Big sister, we were wrong. Please pardon us for our lack of understanding due to our youth.” “What did you do wrong?”

Gu Jinrong faltered.

He thought that a simple apology would suffice, but unexpectedly, she didn’t let go. His eyes instantly revealed a hint of resentment, which she quickly concealed.

Now that he had lost his grandfather’s backing, he couldn’t stir up any trouble.

With a heart full of resentment, he gritted his teeth and continued, “As siblings of the same clan, we shouldn’t harbor jealousy and try to harm our big sister. From now on, my sister and I will mend our ways, respect our big sister, and take care of our nephew…”

Even though he tried to hold back, Gu Qingluan, with her sharp senses, could still sense his reluctance and embarrassment.

But it was truly challenging for him to say these insincere words.

She smiled gently, her demeanor calm. “To recognize one’s mistakes and correct them is the greatest virtue. Just don’t repeat the same mistakes in the future. I’m not an unreasonable person.”

Seeing her taking advantage of the situation, the siblings were furious, but they couldn’t show it.

“See, once everything is out in the open, there’s no more animosity among siblings.” Gu Hongkang laughed heartily as if he hadn’t noticed the strange atmosphere.

He smiled at Gu Qingluan and said, “Luan, since the conflict has been resolved, why don’t you return to Gu Residence? It’s not good for our reputation if you stay outside all the time.”

“Old Master, I think you may have misunderstood. Accepting their apology doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven the Gu family,” Gu Qingluan replied with a cold expression..
