Hua Xu remained silent, not entangled in the question of whether Qin Xiaoya was a Martial Arts Expert. He would know once she arrived; there was no use in speculating now.
"Honestly, I’m more curious about what kind of poison she used to disfigure Young Master Gu. Can you take off the mask and let me see?" Hua Xu smiled.
"Xiangzhou, take off your mask," Gu Yu instructed his son.
Though Gu Xiangzhou was reluctant, he complied and removed the mask, revealing his flushed head. Hua Xu leaned in, touched Gu Xiangzhou's cheek, and then leaned closer to sniff.
"This... this is truly the essence of Wine seeping into the skin, and it smells like Wine," Hua Xu remarked, astonished by such a peculiar method.
"Brother Hua, do you think it can be saved?" Gu Yu asked.
"I can’t do anything at the moment. Let’s wait for Qin Xiaoya to bring the Antidote. I believe she will respect my face," Hua Xu replied confidently.
"Of course, Brother Hua. In the capital, I doubt anyone would dare to disregard your reputation," Gu Yu quickly flattered.
A quarter of an hour later, Qin Xiaoya and Jiang Chen arrived.
"President Qin, you’re truly punctual; you said two-thirty and arrived right on time." Upon seeing Qin Xiaoya, Gu Yu immediately stood up to greet her.
Hua Xu remained seated, quietly savoring his tea.
"Manager Gu, why did you invite Uncle Hua? Our private matters don’t need to trouble him," Qin Xiaoya said with a faint smile upon noticing Hua Xu seated in the armchair.
"I invited Brother Hua as a witness. After all, he is a prominent figure in martial arts here in the capital. It’s better to have him present for matters related to martial arts. You wouldn’t mind that, would you, President Qin?" Gu Yu smiled.
"Of course not. Uncle Hua is a senior in martial arts; having him as a witness is perfect. I trust Uncle Hua will treat this matter fairly," Qin Xiaoya replied with a slight smile.
"Uncle Hua!" Qin Xiaoya walked over and greeted him with a smile.
"Oh, President Qin! The first time I met you, you were still in swaddling clothes. I even attended your full moon celebration. Who would have thought that nearly thirty years have passed? You’ve become the president of the Qin Family Group Company; truly impressive!" Hua Xu said without standing up, turning slightly with a cheerful demeanor.
"Uncle Hua, please just call me Qin Xiaoya. I can’t possibly accept being called President Qin," she said with a slight bow, lowering her stance out of respect for her elder.
"In that case, I’ll take the liberty of calling you Qin Xiaoya," Hua Xu laughed heartily.
The atmosphere between them appeared quite harmonious. As for Jiang Chen, no one paid him any mind; they regarded him merely as Qin Xiaoya’s bodyguard.
"President Qin, please sit down and have some tea," Gu Yu personally pulled out a chair for her.
However, Qin Xiaoya did not sit down but glanced at Jiang Chen instead. He simply took a seat with an air of indifference.
"President Qin, may I ask who this is?" Gu Yu's expression stiffened. He had politely pulled out a chair, but it was not meant for a stranger. However, Jiang Chen boldly sat down at Qin Xiaoya's gesture, leaving Gu Yu with no choice but to hold back his irritation.
"I forgot to introduce him. This is My Young Master. He can sit while I stand," Qin Xiaoya said with a smile.
At that moment, with only a few people present, there was no need to be overly modest. For Qin Xiaoya, being Jiang Chen's maid was a matter of great honor, and she was eager to announce it to the world.
