Fu Xiyan slightly raised an eyebrow, "Handling official business."
Gu Xiyue, listening to his response, remembered what Mo Canglan had mentioned on the phone about the Ever Winning Army sending someone over. It seemed that Fu Xiyan was indeed the representative from the Ever Winning Army.
Seeing that Gu Xiyue hadn’t intended to answer his question, Fu Xiyan added another line, "It’s your turn to answer, why are you at the Medical Alliance?"
Gu Xiyue, preoccupied with her thoughts, subconsciously replied upon hearing his answer, "The same, I’m also handling official business."
Upon hearing that, Fu Xiyan’s eyes flickered slightly.
Glancing sideways, he took a look around the courtyard, thought of something, and, without changing his expression, withdrew his gaze back to Gu Xiyue, "Are you with the Medical Alliance?"
Gu Xiyue paused for a few seconds upon hearing this and then hummed a reluctant affirmation.
Fu Xiyan: "I never heard that you knew medical arts."
Hearing this, Gu Xiyue’s eyes flickered, and she responded coolly, "I’ve also never heard you say that you’re from the Ever Winning Army."
Of course, she knew he was from the Ever Winning Army, but he indeed hadn’t told her personally.
Fu Xiyan, hearing her words, curved his lips slightly, and then, continuing to look at Gu Xiyue, asked further, "Yue Xi, Yue Ying, are both of them you?"
Gu Xiyue shifted her gaze away, no longer meeting his eyes, and chose not to answer his question.
Fu Xiyan knew her well enough to understand that her behavior indicated agreement.
Meanwhile, Jiang Qi, brimming with aggressive energy, charged towards the two, intending to fight Fu Xiyan again, but he stopped upon hearing Gu Xiyue say that Fu Xiyan was from the Ever Winning Army.
He then fixed his gaze on Fu Xiyan’s face, scrutinizing him thoroughly.
Without paying attention, he would have missed it, but upon scrutiny, Jiang Qi recognized him.
This was, after all, Fu Xiyan from the Ever Winning Army.
Normally, Fu Xiyan wouldn’t make public appearances like Tang Yichen, and there were no photos or video material of him available online, but his photo had circulated within the internal network of the web.
Previously, Jiang Qi had only seen him in photos, and this was the first time he was seeing Fu Xiyan in person, hence why he didn’t recognize him immediately.
Now, realizing that this was the Second Master of the Ever Winning Army, Jiang Qi silently took two steps back.
Not to mention that his Ancient Martial Arts skills hadn’t recovered; even if they had, he would be no match for Fu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyue stopped talking, and Fu Xiyan turned his gaze to Jiang Qi, noticing that Jiang Qi was looking at him with animosity and caution. Fu Xiyan simply glanced at him lightly and then turned his attention back to Gu Xiyue, "Is he... your boyfriend?"
Lifting her eyes to look at Fu Xiyan, she didn’t speak, just gazed deeply at him.
Fu Xiyan felt slightly uncomfortable under her stare, cleared his throat, averted his gaze, and said to Gu Xiyue, "I heard him calling you ’wife’ just now."
As Fu Xiyan looked away, Gu Xiyue’s gaze still rested on him, asking, "What if I said yes?"
Fu Xiyan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he turned his head, meeting Gu Xiyue’s gaze once more, "Seriously?"
Gu Xiyue tilted her head upwards slightly, looking back at him, "Seriously."
The two locked gazes, their eyes seemingly crackling with an electric current.
Standing to one side, Jiang Qi could not discern whether the invisible current between them was due to a budding romance or from a standoff.
In the end, it was Fu Xiyan who gave in first, breaking the silence and seriously said to Gu Xiyue, "You’re still young; it’s not good to be in a relationship too early."
Gu Xiyue coldly responded with a single word, "Oh."
