Jiang Qi’s eyes widened, and he was about to put on an indignant face, but then he saw Gu Ying kneading her fingers again.
Jiang Qi, seeing this, began to feel afraid.
With his eyes closed, he shook his head violently at Gu Ying.
Endure for a moment, there’s a vast sea and sky; step back, and the wind is calm and the waves are still; act cowardly once, and it’s of little consequence.
A gentleman can wait ten years to exact revenge.
After successfully brainwashing himself, Jiang Qi directly submitted.
Seeing him shake his head, Gu Ying bent down and tore off the tape sealing Jiang Qi’s mouth, "From now on, when you see Master Zhi, you must call him Master Zhi, got it?"
"Impossible! Even if I die, I will not call that damned..."
"Hmm?" Gu Ying raised her hand and waved her fist at Jiang Qi.
"It’s absolutely impossible." Jiang Qi said, turning his head away to no longer look at Gu Ying.
A man can be killed but not humiliated, having submitted once already, there couldn’t possibly be a second time.
Gu Ying watched his reaction, the corners of her mouth curving slightly, her smile growing more splendid and beautiful, "No calling? That’s fine."
With that, she walked behind Jiang Qi and covered his mouth with her hand.
Jiang Qi’s eyes widened in an attempt to yell, but he could only make a muffled whining noise.
A painful groan accompanied by the sound of a body colliding with the ground, Jiang Qi was smashed to the floor.
Jiang Qi lay spread-eagled on the ground, almost letting humiliating tears fall from his eyes.
This is bullying, waah...
"Will you call him or not?" Gu Ying looked down from above at Jiang Qi, who had the eyes of a dead fish.
Jiang Qi closed his eyes, no longer looking at Gu Ying, and simply played dead.
Hearing this, Gu Ying clicked her tongue lightly, "If you won’t call, then forget it, our Master Zhi isn’t even eager for that."
Thinking that, Gu Ying didn’t force him anymore. She had already beaten him up, she couldn’t really kill him, in case it would affect the relationship between Master Zhi and Gu Xiyue, so she just left him there and walked away.
As soon as Gu Ying walked away, Jiang Qi opened his eyes, glaring fiercely at her retreating figure.
Once his Ancient Martial Arts recovered, he would definitely make her pay!
"Why hasn’t she come out yet?" Meng Qiyun pressed herself against the door, trying to hear what was happening inside clearly, but she couldn’t hear any noise.
"Yeah, why hasn’t she come out yet?" Mo Canglan was also getting anxious, impatiently tapping the palm of his right hand with the back of his left as he continued to pace back and forth in front of the door.
Meng Qiyun and Mo Canglan crossed each other’s paths, one going this way, the other coming that way, their movements creating a sense of urgency in anyone watching.
When Gu Ying reached the door of the room, she saw this very scene.
Not being familiar with the others, Gu Ying chose to stand next to Gu Min.
Gu Min glanced at her, his eyes tinted with appraisal.
Feeling a bit uncomfortable under Gu Min’s gaze, Gu Ying chuckled twice and said, "Heh, heh, just had an itchy hand and took a little action."
Originally, she could have restrained herself, but after seeing Jiang Qi’s disrespectful words towards Gu Zhiqi, her hands itched unbearably.
So, it wasn’t her fault, blame the brat who was asking for it.
Gu Min didn’t say anything, withdrew his gaze, and continued to stand by the door.
"Miss, are you familiar with that young lady inside?" Mo Canglan was anxious, he wanted to strike up a conversation with Gu Min, but knowing that Gu Min often answered one question in three, he gave up the idea of talking to him and turned to ask Gu Ying instead.
Upon hearing Mo Canglan’s question, Gu Ying immediately nodded, "Don’t worry, as long as there is a breath left, our Master Zhi can save her."
After all, she herself had been pulled back from the brink at Ghost Gate Pass.
Mo Canglan didn’t know whether to believe her or not, he fell silent for a few seconds, then suddenly recalled something, "I wonder, what is the relationship between that young lady and Young Friend Gu?"
