Chapter 472: Visiting The Town Again (2/2)

Especially with the new year approaching.

“How have things been in the city lately?”

Chen Jin had brought out a selection for Gu Qingyao while Mo Beihan chatted with him.

Chen Jin frowned. “There has been some unrest, and they’ve been very strict lately, with frequent patrols.”

Mo Beihan frowned. He got some news from Chen Jin, told him to be careful, then left with Gu Qingyao.

“Are we still going to the black market?” Gu Qingyao asked.

Mo Beihan lowered his head to look at her. He smiled. “Don’t worry. With our abilities, we’ll be fine even if we go to the black market. I’m just considering the current circumstances.”

Gu Qingyao said calmly. “We can’t do anything about it. This era hasn’t passed yet. No matter how capable we are, our environment is like that and we cannot change it.”

Mo Beihan sighed. “That’s true! We still have many years to go. Meanwhile, as long as everyone is safe and sound, that will be enough.”

The Old Master had aged significantly since last year. They could tell that he had had a hard year.

Gu Qingyao had helped him a few times, so he recognized her. When he saw her this time, his eyes immediately lit up.

“Girl, girl!”

When Gu Qingyao heard his voice, she hurried over. The three of them headed for a deserted spot. Old Master Guo was very agitated when he saw Gu Qingyao. “Girl! You haven’t been here for a long time. I’ve been waiting and waiting for you frantically.”

Gu Qingyao laughed. “I was at the provincial capital and just got back. Then I had some matters to settle at home, so I couldn’t come earlier. Grandfather Guo, why are you looking for me?”
