"Third Master, the Fire Department’s grand competition is in a few days, and I have been preparing for it lately, so..."
"Mmm, then you should prepare." Before Yun Can could finish speaking, Su Yunling interrupted him, and after speaking, she immediately hung up the voice call.
After hanging up the phone, Su Yunling called Yun Yan.
The call was quickly answered.
"Master." A respectful voice came from the cellphone.
Su Yunling sat on the sofa with her gaze slightly lowered, the light from above casting a pure white halo on her face, leaving subtle shadows in the areas the light didn’t reach. Hearing Yun Yan’s voice, Su Yunling spoke calmly, "I just contacted Yun Can. I asked him to go to Yueqi Village to handle a few corpses, but he said he’s busy with the competition."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yan was silent on the other end for several seconds before speaking, "I understand. I’ll have him return to the Yun Family tomorrow."
"Mmm." Su Yunling hummed indifferently, "Choose someone to go to Yueqi Village. If the child has a request, follow her request. If there is none, contact me once they get there."
"Yes." Yun Yan responded respectfully.
Su Yunling was about to hang up the phone when she heard Yun Yan’s hesitating voice. Su Yunling’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, "What, are you also busy with the competition?"
"No!" Yun Yan answered as quickly as possible and then continued, "I’d like to go there myself."
On hearing this, Su Yunling’s eyebrows rose slightly.
"My Ancient Martial Arts may be wasted, but I am still capable of handling such matters," Yun Yan’s voice was cold and hard, somewhat gloomy and a bit down.
Su Yunling kept her gaze lowered, silent for a few seconds, "As you arrange, just make sure the matter is handled well."
Gu Zhiqi lounged on the sofa with her gaze slightly downcast, focusing on the messages on her phone, her expression somewhat complex.
It wasn’t for nothing that it was a novel with hidden identities. Not only did the male and female leads have disguised identities, but even a male supporting character had one.
Although she had had suspicions, seeing Su Yunling admitting it in person made Gu Zhiqi feel somewhat complicated.
The Ever Winning Army had a total of four leaders. It was said that the four of them were childhood friends and were ranked by age.
In the original story, only the eldest and second Elder truly appeared, the third and fourth Elders lived only in the words of others.
The fourth Elder, Tang Yichen, died early in the original story, with his name appearing a few times later, while the third Elder did not even have a name, only known to be alive. Many times, he was referred to as the Third Master or Third Elder by others.
The Third Master and the vase-like dandy star Su Yunling, these two characters absolutely did not connect. Anyway, when she had been reading the novel, she had never linked the two together.
While Gu Zhiqi was lost in thought, two new messages appeared in the chat box.
[Su Yunling: The person going to handle the matter is named Yun Yan]
[Su Yunling: He’s currently in Yun Town, and should arrive at your place in about an hour]
Seeing this, Gu Zhiqi’s fingers moved lightly, typing four words back with a listless expression.
[Child: Thank you, brother]
[Su Yunling: You’re treating me like a good grandson, why so polite?]
Tang Yun and her group came out of the kitchen, and Gu Chengcheng, who was counting candies, immediately spotted Tang Yun with her sharp eyes.
The child sprang to her feet and dashed toward Tang Yun like the wind.
Seeing this, Tang Yun immediately squatted down to embrace the little one.
Yue Lan, on the other hand, helped the limping Gu Chengan to sit where Gu Chengcheng had been sitting just a moment ago.
"Little girl, a throat-cutting stab, not a bad knife skill," Yue Lan sat close to Gu Zhiqi, looking at her with a smile and spoke playfully.
"Just, it’s alright," Gu Zhiqi replied indifferently to Yue Lan, typing a line of text swiftly and sending it to Su Yunling.
[Child: Remember to go to room 809 to get something]
