Gu Zhiqi was silent for a moment before Feng Buran spoke to her again, "I used to be a member of the Feng Family, but I was expelled from the family two years ago."

Gu Zhiqi turned her head to look at Feng Buran, "Expelled from the family? Can you share the reason?"

Feng Buran paused for a moment, then finally said to Gu Zhiqi, "I’m sorry."

Gu Zhiqi listened, not too concerned, "It’s a matter of personal choice, no need to apologize."

Afterward, the spacecraft fell into silence.

Once off the spacecraft, Feng Buran thanked the trio again and then parted ways with them.

After disembarking, Gu Zhiqi and the others took the flying train to White Star.

Upon arriving at White Star, Gu Zhiqi, dragging a person along, headed straight to the Yan Family. It was also Tang Yichen and Su Yunling’s first visit there.

The guards at the Yan Family gate didn’t recognize Gu Zhiqi, but upon seeing the person she was holding, their expressions changed.

Gu Zhiqi: "Tell Yan Ke to come out."

As soon as Gu Zhiqi said this, the faces of the two guards changed again. They exchanged a look, leaving one to guard while the other went to find Yan Ke.

In the end, Yan Ke didn’t come. Instead, the current head of the Yan Family, Yan Hua, appeared.

At the sight of Gu Zhiqi, Yan Hua nearly fell to his knees.

"Miss Gu," Yan Hua reached up to wipe nonexistent sweat from his forehead and took a few large strides to stand before Gu Zhiqi, "Why are you here?"

After speaking, Yan Hua glanced at the person in Gu Zhiqi’s hand.

He guessed the person might be related to the Yan Family.

Gu Zhiqi didn’t know Yan Hua’s name, but she assumed she’d seen him before and didn’t ask who he was.

Since he could take Yan Ke’s place, he was either an elder or the head of the Yan Family.

She threw Yan Zhong at his feet and asked Yan Hua, "Do you recognize this person?"

Yan Hua glanced and found that Yan Zhong was already unconscious. He looked somewhat familiar, likely a Yan Family member, but couldn’t recall who he was.

Finally, trembling, he faced Yan Hua, "I’ll investigate as soon as possible. What about him..."

Gu Zhiqi: "A Young Master of the Bian Family died, and he wanted to help Madam Bian send some living women down to accompany Young Master Bian."

Upon hearing this, Yan Hua’s brow furrowed deeply.

He began to doubt whether this Yan Zhong was truly from the Yan Family.

Does their family have such fools?

Internally, Yan Hua was somewhat shattered, but outwardly, he cupped his hands to Gu Zhiqi, "Rest assured, Miss Gu, I will act according to family rules."

"I’ve nullified his cultivation level; how you handle the rest is up to you," Gu Zhiqi said, staring at Yan Hua for a few more seconds before adding, "I hope this is the first and also the last time."

The Yan Family’s ancestor was the brother of Yan Qian, so by seniority, Yan Ke called Yan Qian "aunt," a real aunt.

When the Nine Stars City was first established, the Yan Family was the first family to settle there, followed by the Gu Family.

For Yan Family and Gu Family, she always had trust.

However, she hadn’t expected even the Yan Family would have someone like Yan Zhong; who knows about other families...

Upon Gu Zhiqi’s words, Yan Hua immediately assured, "Yes, later, I will properly investigate and certainly give Miss Gu an explanation."

Gu Zhiqi returned to her senses and nodded towards Yan Hua.

Seeing Gu Zhiqi nod, Yan Hua finally let out a breath of relief, then continued to politely say to Gu Zhiqi, "Miss Gu, did you come to Nine Stars City just for this matter? Having endured a long journey, why not stay and relax a few days at the Yan Family?"
