    Seeing that Gu Qingluan was unhappy and about to leave, Gu Zhicheng couldn’t sit still and immediately stood up to follow.


    “Luan’er, don’t be angry. It’s just one spot, if you want it, take it!”


    Gu Zhichengpromised, while his wife, Wang Shi, felt a bit annoyed at his concession.


    Gu Qingluan’s lips curled up, and she nced down at her son.


    Mission aplished!


    The selectionpetition would be held the day after tomorrow.


    Tomorrow, all major families need to submit the list of participants to the organizers.


    The organizers were from the Royalty, but the main person in charge was someone who came from the Holy Heaven Dynasty.


    As for the identity of this person, the major families currently have no information.


    They only know that a mysterious person is currently staying in the royal pce, and the Crown Prince has close interactions with him.


    Gu Zhicheng told Gu Qingluan some things to note and had someone present to draft the list. After she reviewed it, they would send it to the organizers tomorrow.


    “Once this list is finalized, there can be no changes, only forfeit,” Gu Zhicheng reminded her, “Are you sure you want Xiaonan to participate? The arena is dangerous and unpredictable.”


    “Don’t worry, Grandpa, I’m really good!” Gu Xiaonan patted his little chest, full of pride.


    However, the other participants would also be very strong.


    He wondered how his mother would change the name on the list to hers.


    Actually… If his mother couldn’t change it, he could also participate!


    Hmph, they all look down on him and secretly called him an illegitimate child! He wanted to show them that he was not a burden to his mother but her pride! Thinking of this, Gu Xiaonan touched his round little chin.


    Well…


    Maybe he should talk to his motherter and ask to participate instead! “Luan’er, why do you still call me ‘Master’ instead of calling me ‘Dad’ again?” Gu Qingluan raised her eyebrows and looked at his hopeful eyes, skillfully changing the subject, “In a while, Mr. Liu will send some elixirs to the auction.


    If you like them, I can ask him to give you a discount.”


    Gu Zhicheng’s eyes suddenly brightened, excitedly asking, “Really?”


    Trying to achieve everything at once may not lead to sess; it’s better to take one step at a time


    Now that Qingluan was willing to help him get some benefits from Mr. Liu, he was sure to gain even greater benefits in the future.


    Indeed, his strategy was correct.


    He must go along with his eldest daughter and dote on her son. That way, he could establish a closer rtionship and get help to reach the Ind of No Return!


    After getting Gu Qingluan’s approval, Gu Zhicheng looked at her with even more delight than before.


    Gu Qingluan took the opportunity to bid farewell.


    He urged her to go back quickly and not ignore Mr. Liu when she got home. If


    Mr. Liu had any demands, she should tell him, and he would do his best to fulfill them…


    After some more instructions, he finally let Gu Qingluan leave.


    Leaving Gu’s residence and getting on the carriage to go back, Gu Xiaonan told her about his desire to participate in the selectionpetition.


    Gu Qingluan smiled and said, “That was actually for you in the first ce.”


    Gu Xiaonan was stunned, “Huh? Wasn’t it supposed to be you, Mom?”


    Originally, Gu Qingluan had intended to participate herself, but then she thought that it wouldn’t hurt to let her son participate. Thepetition could be a test for Xiaonan.


    Besides, Xiaonan’s age was appropriate for attending school. In the past, on the Ind of No Return, he had no peers, and Gu Qingluan was the one teaching him everything.


    Her son was very smart, learning everything quickly, and showing astonishing talents in many aspects. However, during this period, she also discovered a problem….
