Free Web NovelChapter 1962: Chapter 1962: Jiang Qi’s Remorse
Like Jiang Qi, Ling Piaomu also found it incredible, but her reaction wasn’t as intense as Jiang Qi’s.
Although Wen Yuanbai knew that it was hard for ordinary people to believe that a twelve-year-old Gu Zhiqi could disguise as a middle-aged man, still...
Wasn’t this purple-haired youth’s reaction a bit too much?
And quite strange, too.
Wen Yuanbai was full of doubts, but he didn’t ask much. Instead, he explained to the three of them about Gu Zhiqi’s expertise in disguise technique.
If it were someone else, Wen Yuanbai would not waste time explaining so much, but Gu Yuluo was not just anyone; she was the third senior sister of his master.
He had just explained to Gu Xiyue because Gu Xiyue was Gu Zhiqi’s sister.
After listening to Wen Yuanbai’s explanation, Gu Yuluo’s expression remained complicated.
Ling Piaomu and Jiang Qi’s expressions were even more complex.
Ling Piaomu hadn’t expected that the person who had helped rescue Gu Xiyue and the others back then, besides Wen Yuanbai, was also Gu Zhiqi.
Moreover, it was clear that Wen Yuanbai had saved people because of Gu Zhiqi’s words.
So, in the end, Gu Zhiqi was truly their lifesaver.
But what had she and Jiang Qi done before?
At this moment, Ling Piaomu was extremely glad that she had heeded Gu Yuluo’s words and hadn’t confronted Gu Zhiqi over Jiang Qi’s cultivation being abolished.
Otherwise...
She would surely regret it to death right now.
No, she had regretted it long ago; it’s just that now, she regretted it even more.
Although she hadn’t actually acted against Gu Zhiqi, she had never liked her, and had even ignored her unilaterally.
Previously, when Gu Zhiqi saved the vital energy-rampaging Gu Xiyue and the people of the Medical Alliance, Ling Piaomu’s perception of her changed.
However, afterwards, she stayed neither liking nor disliking her.
Right now...
She couldn’t quite figure out her feelings, but they were very complicated, with the strongest emotions being regret and relief.
Regretting her previous prejudice against Gu Zhiqi, and relieved that she listened to Gu Yuluo and didn’t intervene in Jiang Qi’s matters.
Jiang Qi’s current feelings were similar to Ling Piaomu’s, only his heart was filled with remorse.
Last year, when he stormed into Shengxing Hotel, although he hadn’t intended to take Gu Zhiqi’s life, he did strike with the thought of severely injuring her, making her bedridden for months.
In the end, although his second strike didn’t land on Gu Zhiqi, his first one did indeed hit her.
Later, when they were at the Medical Alliance, he spoke rudely to Gu Zhiqi again...
Thinking back on everything, Jiang Qi regretted to his core.
How could he have treated his lifesaver like that?
He truly deserved to die.
Unaware of Jiang Qi’s thoughts, Wen Yuanbai found his remorse inexplicable, but nonetheless said to Gu Yuluo and the other two, "Regarding master’s disguise technique, please don’t tell anyone else."
He originally only intended to tell Gu Yuluo, but it was evident that the other two were her friends, so he decided to tell all three of them.
Gu Yuluo finally came back to her senses, nodded to Wen Yuanbai, thanked him, and then called Jiang Qi and Ling Piaomu to leave together.
Seeing Jiang Qi’s remorseful face, Gu Yuluo also guessed why he felt regret, thinking inwardly that he deserved it.
On the surface, she didn’t mock him, just reminded the two, "Remember Mr. Wen’s reminder, don’t cause trouble for my little sister."
Ling Piaomu nodded.
Jiang Qi, with a slightly pale face, nodded as well, then looked at Gu Yuluo with a troubled expression, "Fall, I..."
Seeing Jiang Qi’s hesitant look, seemingly guessing what he wanted to say, Gu Yuluo remarked, "If you want to repent, don’t do it in front of me."
"Of course, don’t bother my little sister either; she doesn’t need it."
