Shopkeeper Wang seemed to have found an anchor in his storm, his voice filled with relief. "Miss Gu, you're finally here!"
Despite her young age, Gu Jiao appeared more composed than Shopkeeper Wang in the face of a group of menacing men. This drew another look from a man in the group.
In the end, she was just a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old. After a momentary surprise, the man dismissed Gu Jiao from his mind.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"She is the proprietor of our Miraculous Hands Hall!" Shopkeeper Wang said, puffing out his chest.
The proprietor? A mere child?
The man would never believe that Gu Jiao ascended to the position of proprietor through her abilities. She was probably the daughter of the actual owner, who merely inherited her father's business.
Thinking this, the man completely disregarded Gu Jiao.
"Evidence," Gu Jiao repeated.
