"Boss Lu, what do you mean by this?"

Lu Chuan's heart pounded violently.

"Young Master, we grew up together. Even if you changed your face, I can't mistake your scent."

It's possible to identify someone through their scent.

Lu Qianqiu's hand touched Lu Chuan. "Young Master, it's just the two of us here. Can you restore your true appearance?"

Lu Chuan awkwardly laughed and released his disguise.

Seeing the familiar Lu Chuan, a smile bloomed on Lu Qianqiu's face. She vigorously rubbed Lu Chuan's face with both hands.

"Indeed, it's Young Master. Still calling me Boss Lu, it seems like you've been separated from me for too long and need some discipline! Do you have something to say to me?"

Lu Chuan's heart was in a panic.

"Why aren't you speaking? Why haven't you written me a single letter in the past six months?"

An unexpected question. Lu Chuan maintained his composure and replied, "In the past six months, many things have happened at Immortal Gate. I've been busy with current matters and didn't have time to write. I apologize, Qianqiu."

"Qianqiu, are you calling me? Why don't you call me Sister Qiu anymore? It seems like you really need some discipline!"

Lu Qianqiu reached her hands to the top of Lu Chuan's head and ruffled his hair.

"Sister Qiu, Sister Qiu!"

That's just Lu Qianqiu's personality.

She was bought by the Lu family when she was young to accompany Lu Chuan. She took care of Lu Chuan like an adult since they were young.

Although Lu Chuan and Lu Qianqiu had a master-servant relationship, they grew up together. Before Lu Chuan entered Immortal Gate, they were together every day, and their relationship was like siblings.

After all, when he was a child, he didn't have any emotions like a beast. He was just like an ordinary child, calling Lu Qianqiu, who took care of him everywhere, Sister Qiu.

But as they grew up, Lu Qianqiu still managed everything, supervising Lu Chuan's cultivation and meddling in big and small matters. When he couldn't stand it anymore, he let Lu Qianqiu go to the mortal world on her own.

"So you still know how to call me sister! This is how you treat your sister, not even taking the time to write me a letter?"

Lu Qianqiu's movements stopped, and she gently stroked Lu Chuan's forehead like a sister.

She softly said, "I've been thinking about you all the time, worrying about you, my dear sister. In the past six months, I often wondered if Young Master was eating well, resting on time, and practicing diligently.

I heard about you during dinner at Qianqiu Inn, and I was really happy.

Young Master has become an extraordinary person, making friends at Immortal Gate, standing up for friends, and getting along well with them. That boy named Luo Li speaks highly of you."

As she spoke, Lu Qianqiu's voice became choked up.

"I'm also working hard... How is Qianqiu Trading Company doing? It's currently the largest franchise in the Eastern Continent and has a certain reputation among the cultivation sects. Isn't Sister amazing?"

Lu Qianqiu's body trembled, her eyes moist.

She truly felt relieved by Lu Chuan's changes. Lu Chuan replied, "Sister Qiu is amazing..."

Seeing that Lu Chuan didn't talk much to her, Lu Qianqiu thought that Lu Chuan was worried about not actively acknowledging her and being scolded by her, so she adjusted her mood.

Lu Qianqiu smiled and said, "Young Master, you're acting with someone else's appearance, so you must have sufficient reasons. You're going to Azure Rock Town to complete a sect mission, right? Be careful on the way. I'll be relieved as long as I see that Young Master is safe."

Alright, it's already late, time to sleep. I'm satisfied just to see Young Master once. When Young Master needs me, I won't have to worry about the affairs of the trading company. People from the Lu family will take care of it.

Sister will definitely return to Young Master's side as soon as possible."

Lu Qianqiu pressed the towel against her body and stood up, preparing to leave the bathroom.

The calm water surface ripples, just like Lu Chuan's inner thoughts.

Lu Chuan doesn't dislike his sister who always thinks of him, in his past life, he wanted a sister like her.

He doesn't want to make Lu Qianqiu sad, but the reward for the mission is very generous.

Lu Chuan has made up his mind.

He stands up and grabs Lu Qianqiu's hand, saying seriously, "Qiu sister, I have something to tell you."

Being suddenly grabbed, Lu Qianqiu's body trembles slightly, and she turns around to see a serious Lu Chuan.

The last time she saw Lu Chuan with this expression was half a year ago when he asked her to go to the mortal world to try business. The words he said at that time were a hurdle that Lu Qianqiu didn't want to face.

Thinking of the bad memories, Lu Qianqiu dares not look at Lu Chuan anymore, she lowers her head and looks at the rippling water surface.

"Master, let's talk about it next time, it's already late today."

Lu Qianqiu tries to free herself from Lu Chuan's hand. As Lu Chuan expected, an ordinary woman without even reaching the Qi Refining Stage has no ability to resist against his Foundation Building Late Stage cultivation.

"I want you to listen to me."

"Is it the continuation of what you said half a year ago?"

"Yes," Lu Chuan nods.

"I don't want to listen."

"Qiu sister, actually, half a year ago, the things I said, I wanted to distance myself from you..."

Before Lu Chuan finishes speaking, the voice of the system appears.

"Mission completed: Lu Qianqiu understands that she has been abandoned.

Reward: Alchemy Technique upgraded to Intermediate Level (can refine pills up to the Nascent Soul stage)."

Lu Qianqiu doesn't want to listen to Lu Chuan saying those things. Suddenly, she squats down, her whole body submerged in the water, leaving only one hand holding Lu Chuan's.

The suffocating feeling of not being able to breathe makes Lu Qianqiu particularly clear-headed.

In fact, she knew long ago that she was just deceiving herself in the past half year.

After leaving the Lu family and entering the Wan Immortal Gate, Young Master Lu Chuan suddenly told her that she didn't have the talent for cultivation and even specifically mentioned her talent for business. The Lu family lacked a child who could do business.

He didn't want her to stay in the Wan Immortal Gate, wasting her talent by his side. In other words, Young Master Lu Chuan disliked her.

Qianqiu was just a servant girl bought to be a maid.

Being abandoned by the master is a common occurrence in the cultivation world.

But she didn't want to accept reality, she just treated Young Master Lu Chuan as expecting her to achieve success in business. She devoted herself wholeheartedly to the Chamber of Commerce and established the Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce.

She didn't receive a single letter in half a year, which was evidence of her being abandoned.

If her relationship with Young Master was still good, she could have written letters to greet him or even personally go to the Wan Immortal Gate to find him. But she didn't dare, afraid that Young Master would say she was an unrelated person.

Meeting Young Master unexpectedly like this, she is both afraid and pleasantly surprised.

She is afraid that he will mention those words from half a year ago and explain what he meant at that time.

Hearing about Lu Chuan from the people of the Wan Immortal Gate, she could feel that Young Master has changed. Being able to see the long-missed Young Master again is already enough for her.

Rather than hearing it from Young Master Lu Chuan himself that they have no relationship, it's better to die in contentment.
