Chapter 171: The Scumbag Is Connected to Qiankun Academy?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The people of the Gu family were all full of ill intentions, and he felt disgusted eating with them.

“The quota for the Qiankun Academy selection is in the hands of the Gu family. If we don’t give them some hope, why would they willingly give the spot to me?”

Gu Xiaonan suddenly realized. “So, Mother, you’re after the quota for the Qiankun Academy selection! Little Yuanxi mentioned that they came to Tianjing because of the selection.”

Gu Qingluan was surprised. “Really?”

She hadn’t heard about it from Little Yuanxi before.

Gu Xiaonan nodded. “Little Yuanxi said that they will leave once the selection is over.”

Gu Qingluan touched her chin.

Could it be that that scumbag was connected to the Qiankun Academy?

Could she ask him for a spot?

Then Gu Qingluan shook her head.

Forget it, it’s better to ask Gu Zhicheng instead of the scumbag.

Not long after, someone came to invite the two of them for a meal.

During the family banquet, the members of the Gu family appeared much more enthusiastic than before in the front hall.

At least on the surface, they seemed friendly and warm.

Gu Qingluan, however, maintained a cool demeanor. When she was in a good mood, she exchanged a few words, and when she wasn’t, she gave a curt response that left the other party at a loss.

No one dared to speak up in anger.

And so, during the banquet, Gu Qingluan and her son enjoyed themselves, while the others were filled with frustration.

As the meal was about to end, Gu Qingluan suddenly asked, “1 heard that Second Sister went to the Qiankun Academy?”

Wang Shi felt that she could finally show some pride, and with a smug look in her eyes, she boasted, “This child has been impressive since she was young. But 1 didn’t expect her to get into the Qiankun Academy and even receive special treatment, being chosen as a direct disciple by the Revered One.”

“That’s indeed impressive.” Gu Qingluan nodded. “But Second Sister might feel a bit lonely in the academy. If she had some company, it would probably be better for her.”

Gu Zhicheng’s mind stirred. “Do you want to go?”

Wang Shi looked cautiously at Gu Qingluan. “Qingluan, you already have a child. There’s no need for you to go to the academy. If people find out about your background, they might make fun of you.”

Currently, Gu Qingluan’s daughter was the only student from the Gu family in the Qiankun Academy, which was her pride. Wang Shi couldn’t allow this brat to meddle in her daughter’s affairs.

With this girl’s current strength, if she had gone to the Qiankun Academy, it would undoubtedly have caused trouble for Lingxue.

Though Wang Shi still thought her daughter was the most outstanding, she harbored deep fear of the current Gu Qingluan and didn’t want any accidents to happen.

Gu Zhicheng agreed with Wang Shi’s concerns, and besides, he already had a daughter who brought great glory to their family. He didn’t need Gu Qingluan to add to it.

Moreover, if Gu Qingluan went to the Qiankun Academy, how would he establish a connection with the Island of No Return?

He nodded in agreement, “Your mother is right. Qingluan, just stay at home and take care of your child. It would be best if you find a suitable man to marry. The Fifth Prince seems like a good candidate. You were already engaged to him, and if it weren’t for some mishap, you might have even had a child together…”

The Fifth Prince?

That scumbag was considered a good candidate?

Gu Qingluan sneered inwardly.

She was curious about what benefits the Fifth Prince had promised Gu Zhicheng for him to speak on his behalf.

At the moment, she had no patience to listen to Gu Zhicheng’s explanations and directly interrupted him, “It’s not me who wants to enter the Qiankun Academy, it’s Xiaonan!”

Everyone was stunned.

They all turned to look at the little guy sitting next to Gu Qingluan, gnawing on a chicken leg.

“Xiaonan?” Wang Shi sneered.. “Do you think the Qiankun Academy is an ordinary place where anyone can get in?”
