Back to the 80s: Raising my Wolfy Boyfriend-Chapter 278: Reaching Heights Admired by All

The young boy is her soft spot, but also her armor. For him, she is willing to sacrifice everything.

Upon realizing this, the old man took a deep breath, adjusted his facial expression, and tried to remain calm.

He looked at An Mingji sitting before him, observing the boy’s mysterious and unreadable expression, and sighed inwardly.

With his eyes, this young boy is anything but ordinary.

After a while, the old man nodded and said, "I understand Miss Gu’s intentions. Rest assured, as long as my Yu family is in Wanhai City, no one will dare harm Young Master An. He will be a distinguished guest of our Yu family."

Yu Qingli and Yu Shuo heard the old man’s words and their breathing slowed down.

They stared at An Mingji, unsure if they felt envy or complexity.

This young boy and Gu Jin clearly have no blood relation, yet he receives her favor.

How could they not be aware of Gu Jin’s capabilities? She is a rare figure in Hua Country, and her current cultivation level has already surpassed all cultivators.

This is unknown to others, but in a few more years, she will undoubtedly reach a height admired by all.

At that time, Gu Jin will bask in endless glory, with noble families and magnates eager to curry favor.

The father and son of the Yu family looked at An Mingji, simultaneously thinking, "This kid is truly lucky!"

As the old man’s words concluded, Gu Jin’s smile widened.

"Thank you, Sir, for your protection."

Immediately, she seized the moment of retrieving something from her backpack to take out the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill from her space.

The moment the wooden box was taken out, Old Zhao, Yu Qingli, Yu Shuo, and even An Mingji were captivated.

The four of them stared at the wooden box in Gu Jin’s hand, watching as she placed it on the table and gently pushed it towards the old man.

"This is a Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill. You may try it, though I can’t guarantee its effectiveness."

Upon seeing the wooden box, Old Zhao’s hands trembled with excitement.

Yu Qingli and Yu Shuo’s eyes also fixated tightly on the wooden box containing the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Perhaps Old Zhao and Yu Qingli couldn’t discern much, but Yu Shuo, who had reached the first layer of Qi Refinement, could clearly sense the thin spiritual energy emanating from the wooden box.

Old Zhao slowly extended his trembling hand, wanting to touch the wooden box, but stopped halfway.

He raised his head and asked, "Miss Gu, do you truly wish to give me this Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill?"

Gu Jin smiled, "The item is already placed here."

Old Zhao swallowed, his eyes earnestly locked onto Gu Jin, "Miss Gu might not be aware, but alchemists nowadays are almost extinct. As far as I know, Beijing recently sought traces of alchemists with high rewards. If an alchemist were to appear, it would certainly cause disputes."

These words had many implications, some probing and some vaguely warning. Gu Jin understood the old man’s speculation about her.

She didn’t refute it, her eyes smiled knowingly, "Didn’t you say, Sir, that there are very few cultivators in Wanhai City, making the existence of alchemists nigh impossible? With the empire so distant, who knows if a small elixir appeared? Isn’t that right?"

The old man’s expression instantly became excited.

Gu Jin’s lack of denial was an admission that she had crafted the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Though unspoken, both sides understood the implication.

The old man’s voice trembled with excitement, "Aren’t you afraid that the Yu family harbors malignant intentions and might be disadvantageous to you?"

Gu Jin relaxed and leaned back in her chair, her smile unchanged, yet her eyes held a fierce glint.
