Chapter 270: Handsome Scheme

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Mother prefers those with pleasant personalities, Royal Father. It would be wise to work on your temper before attempting to win her over. Otherwise, I foresee frequent disagreements whenever you interact with her,” Feng Yuanxi spoke earnestly.

Feng Tianlan’s expression slightly tensed.

“Is there… anything else?”

Anything else?

Feng Yuanxi glanced at him and asked, “Father, has Mother seen your true appearance?”

“No,” Feng Tianlan replied.

“Absolutely! Everyone desires beauty. Your current mask, Royal Father, is simply unattractive. Putting Mother aside, even the maidservants around her might not find it appealing.”

Suddenly, Feng Tianlan remembered that Gu Qingluan had called him an “ugly freak”.

Could it be true that the woman rejected him because his face was repulsive?

Feng Yuanxi stared at him with sparkling eyes. “You know about a plan called ‘Handsome Scheme’, right? Royal Father, you are so handsome. If you take off the mask and reveal your true face to Mother, she might be attracted to you!”

Feng Tianlan fell into contemplation.

Would he really have to rely on his looks to capture a woman’s attention one day?

Upon learning that someone had used the name of the Lushi Auction House to send gifts to Gu Xiaonan, causing him to go missing, Lu Bainian hurriedly came to the Jun Residence to inquire about the situation and apologize to Gu Qingluan.

Gu Qingluan said, “Actually, this matter has nothing to do with you, Young Master Lu. You don’t need to blame yourself.”

However, Lu Bainian still felt indebted.

“Indeed, this matter is not connected to you in any way. If there’s anyone at fault, it’s the lack of vigilance within my household that allowed certain individuals to exploit the situation. Thankfully, Xiaonan has returned unharmed, and those responsible have faced consequences. We can now regard this issue as resolved.”

“Are you referring to the Fifth Prince? In fact, there’s someone else behind this.”

Gu Qingluan’s eyes narrowed slightly as she asked, “What did Young Master Lu discover?”

Lu Bannian looked serious. “1 had my people investigate and found that someone from your family’s servants had been secretly communicating with an assistant from the Fifth Prince’s residence. After interrogating the person they caught, we discovered that the poison sent to your residence was provided by Madam Gu, and further investigation led to another revelation. There’s an alchemist named Zhang Sheng who recently joined the Gu Family. He claims to be from the Island of No Return and is highly regarded by your family. It turns out he provided the poison to Madam Gu.”

A fleeting glint of coldness passed through Gu Qingluan’s eyes.

Wang Shi again!

It seemed that unless she put an end to them completely, they would keep reappearing from time to time.

While she didn’t know how Lu Bainian managed to gather so much information in such a short time, she had no reason to doubt his words.

“Young Master Lu, 1 appreciate this information. It’s crucial to me.”

Lu Bannian smiled shyly. “I’m merely trying to make amends. There’s no need for Miss Gu to thank me.”

“By the way, there’s an auction in three days. Would Miss Gu be interested in attending?”

“Is it the Lushi auction?”

“No, it’s a black market auction.”

Gu Qingluan pondered for a moment. “I’ll see how things go when the time comes.”

The black market was a peculiar place, with its own unique rules and taboos. It was a realm of free trading without concerns about identity, but it was also marked by looting and bloodshed.

Ordinary people hesitated to enter, as many who ventured there never returned. Still, the allure attracted many, making it a mysterious and dangerous place.

Gu Qingluan was well aware of this and had even visited the black market before.

She knew a bit about its auction events as well.

Black market auctions were unlike regular ones, such as the Lushi auctions. The items to be auctioned were kept secret until the event started, and the bidding process was somewhat different, often involving blind bids.

Blind bids meant customers would write down their bid and submit it, with the highest bid winning the item. This added an element of excitement for those who enjoyed taking risks and offered a chance at winning big.

The black market provided opportunities for unexpected gains, but the risk of losing one’s life was also high.

Even if one was fortunate enough to acquire the desired item at the auction, they might soon find themselves targeted on the bustling streets of the black market, becoming unwitting prey.

Gu Qingluan was not averse to the black market.

Each world had its own set of rules, and if one couldn’t adapt, the best course was to abstain.

Seeing her lack of substantial interest, Lu Banian remarked, “Last time, Miss Gu showed considerable interest in that unknown black stone at the auction. I’ve heard that a similar item might appear in the upcoming black market auction. If Miss Gu is inclined, you could try your luck there..”
