On the way home after giving Ruiqiu a ride in the beaten-up bread van, Liuzi shared with Gu Tao some background information about Chen Ruiqiu.
This guy, well, he's not bad per se, just a bit naive, and seems to come from old nobility. He's quite different from those spoiled rich second generations. Although he lost his composure a bit during the meal, Gu Tao was understanding about it. After all, jealousy can twist people. If he had to get all red in the face over such a small matter, then he wouldn't deserve to be called Mr. Gu, the Sect Master. He's from the nobility, alright, but Gu Tao himself comes from prince-level education, albeit not very successfully...
"Also, he mentioned that he seems to have some connection with supernatural phenomena. His reason for seeking me this time is to buy an heirloom of his ancestors in Hong Kong, which may attract supernatural forces."
"Oh?" Gu Tao, who was pretending to drive seriously, turned his head: "What kind of item is it?"
