C7
Xu Tianci was used to being lazy, it was normal for him to wake up early in the morning as if he was taking a life.
The last time he almost lost his life, he was so scared that his Xu Family went up and down. He naturally left the matter of studying at home, but he suddenly became diligent, pulling Qing Yi to the entrance of the academy every morning to wait for her. Xu Baiwan also knew that he was mistaken, and was embarrassed. Adding on the fact that the Old Ancestor was shocked, although his heart was bitter, he could only follow and find someone.
However, that little girl seemed to have disappeared, as if nothing had happened.
With the old ancestor above and Xu Tianci, the young ancestor, chasing after him, his days would be very difficult. Since Xu Tianci had been waiting at the entrance of the academy everyday, he naturally didn't dare to ask anymore about it. He didn't fear the people beside him for the past ten thousand years, but these two people were two of his own mountains. No matter how capable he was, he didn't dare to go against them ?
He could only get his men to hurry up and search for Xu Tianci while warning Qing Yi to not look too favorably on him and not let the last time happen by any means.
Furthermore, with the lesson from last time, Qing Yi naturally did not dare to be careless. She could not help but stare fixedly at Xu Tianci, and did not even dare to blink. With Xu Tianci's body, after all these years of recuperation, even though he was fine for the time being, he was still much weaker than normal people. Seeing that the sun was setting, he waited for yet another morning, afraid that something might have happened to him. Although he knew that Xu Tianci did not want to hear it, he could only go up and urge her.
But she never thought that before she could finish, Xu Tianci who was originally obediently sitting on the ground resting, would suddenly jump and run off into the distance while screaming.
"Gu Jinyu, Gu Jinyu..." "Here, here ?"
Both of Xu Tianci's eyes lit up as he waved and roared at the top of his lungs. His originally puckered up little face instantly relaxed and filled with a smile. From the looks of it, if not for the fact that they knew about the conflict between Xu Tianci and Gu Jinyu, they would have really thought that the relationship between the two of them was extremely good.
"It's him!"
Although Jiuniang urged him to come to the Academy, he was still worried about Jiuniang alone. After cleaning up her house, she would prepare lunch before coming out. She only had some questions to ask Mister anyway, it didn't matter if she came back earlier or later. But she didn't expect that ? Although he couldn't see with his eyes, he recognized the voice the moment he heard it ?
"Xu Tianci, what's the matter?"
Standing still, although Gu Jinyu still had a calm face, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but droop. If it was someone who was familiar with him, they would definitely know that he was currently not in a good mood.
Of course, it was all Xu Tianci's fault, if not Jiuniang wouldn't have suffered so much.
Alright, Jiuniang didn't talk about the matter regarding the medicine store that day, and Gu Jinyu also didn't know that the pus on Jiuniang's face was broken by Xu Baiwan. However, he knew that the reason why Jiuniang kneeled down was because of Xu Tianci, and he and Madame Gu Yu only thought that the pus on Jiuniang's face was broken because of him falling down. But even so, he still didn't have any good intentions towards Xu Tianci.
"Wow!" Great! "I've finally found you." Xu Tianci excitedly jumped up and hugged Gu Jinyu's neck, excitedly rubbing his body. He looked like a puppy that had seen its owner.
Of course, he had been waiting for half a month already. He finally got someone to wait for him after so much difficulty. It would be strange if he wasn't excited in his heart.
It was just that Gu Jinyu was suffering continuously from some kind of mental illness. Although he could not be considered fat, he was still in a pampered state. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to take this kind of pounce.
"Let go!"
Even so, Gu Jinyu's expression still quickly darkened.
What he disliked the most was cuddling and hugging. Moreover, he didn't like this person at all.
However, Xu Tianci was happy, and did not take Gu Jinyu's words seriously. Although he had let go of's neck, they were still wrapped around his shoulders, looking like brothers. He was ten years old this year, three years younger than Gu Jinyu, half a head shorter than him.
"Hey, where are you?" I've been waiting for you for half a month. "You don't even know that the teacher at the Institute is too bad to tell me where your house is." After waiting for more than half a month, he was finally able to see a living person. If he did not properly complain, he would really be letting himself down.
He was already used to being lazy. Looking at the people around the town, who wouldn't give him face when they saw him? Just the academy teacher alone, for some reason, was someone who was unapproachable, even if he was soft or hard. Originally, he was happy to go to the academy to study. Since he was young, he did not have anyone to play with. There were many people in the academy, many people to play with. However, he never expected that all the teachers in the academy would hate him. His actions were truly merciless. A two finger-wide ruler, it bulged to the point that his palm swelled up.
After the first time he was beaten up for not being able to memorize a book, he hated the academy.
They thought that Xu Tianci was someone who feared nothing in heaven or earth. He had always been the only one to beat people up, so how could they possibly beat him up? He wanted to go home and complain, but he didn't expect his father, who always doted on him, to not only not help him take revenge, but also say that he had fought well. From then on, he no longer dared to complain about what happened in the academy. In any case, he knew in his heart that it was useless to complain, so he just said it was a waste of his saliva.
Thus, this time he clearly knew that saving the girl was akin to being siblings with Gu Jinyu. As long as he followed Gu Jinyu, he would definitely be able to find the girl, but he didn't tell his father. He had his own selfish thoughts, that girl was his savior, he, Xu Tianci would only be able to find her himself, would only be able to find her by himself. Therefore, he had stayed here for more than half a month. He did not cry out in pain, nor did he cry out in exhaustion.
"Why are you looking for me?"
Retreating two steps, he pushed Xu Tianci away without leaving a trace. Gu Jinyu frowned slightly, he had heard quite a bit about Xu Tianci, many people in the academy were complaining to him, but because he was Xu Baiwan's son, no one could do anything to him. Normally, Gu Jinyu would just hide and dodge whenever he could, but he didn't expect to run into one in front of Jiuniang that day. Hearing that he had actually been looking for him for half a month, Gu Jinyu felt that it was not good, it seemed that the next time he went out, he would have to look at the Yellow Calendar, and today would not be a good day to travel. Hearing that his master did not tell him where his family lived, Gu Jinyu felt a burst of gratitude. At the same time, he decided to thank his master later.
"Actually, I'm not looking for you." Shaking his head, Xu Tianci was actually feeling embarrassed, his face red and his head lowered, his eyes staring at his toes, kicking the dust on the ground. Gu Jinyu could not see it, but Qing Yi could see it clearly. Seeing her young master like this, Qing Yi's jaw dropped.
"In that case, I shall take my leave first." Not looking for him? Then why did he have to stop me? His mind was filled with suspicions, Gu Jinyu did not want to ask further and also did not want to know, so he prepared to enter the Academy.
However, she didn't expect to be hugged by Xu Tianci just after taking two steps.
Both of his hands held tightly onto Gu Jinyu's waist, and Xu Tianci hung onto Gu Jinyu's body like a koala. He shouted loudly, "Don't go, don't go, you can't go!"
It was the first time Gu Jinyu was being hugged like this, and immediately caused him to feel displeased. His bright eyes flashed with anger, and his tone became even more serious: "Let go! "This is the entrance to the academy, what a shame!"
"I ?" I... "I-I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for your sister!" Although Xu Tianci was a little mischievous, he knew that Gu Jinyu was probably truly angry, and could not say much, but in the end, he still voiced out his intentions: "I, I Xu Tianci am not the type of person who does not know what's good for myself, since she saved my life, I, Xu Tianci, will definitely repay her."
Clenching his teeth, Xu Tianci spoke out the thoughts in his mind. He immediately felt comfortable, and it was not hard to feel embarrassed.
Originally, this wasn't something that couldn't be exposed. If not for Jiuniang saving him, hshsheould probably have lost his life. She had truly listened to the words of the Manager Wang that day. Others were only looking at the danger, but he was the person involved. He was well aware of how terrifying the situation was at that time. Even though he had never broken a soup, he had never felt as uncomfortable as that day. He even thought that she had met the Black and White Impermanence and it was that girl who had pulled him back from the yellow springs. This was a life saving favor, so it wasn't hard to say. However, this youngster's temperament was such that even if the person beside him was 10 years old, he wouldn't make so many twists and turns. It just so happened that he was the darling of Xu Family, and during festive occasions, Xu Family would always invite those few people to sing. It couldn't be that those young scholars and young ladies singing about mutual love, or that they were thinking about enmity in the martial arts world, or about chivalry and gentleness in the bones. The children of the other families would more or less avoid him, but he was the darling of Xu Family, how could he avoid him?
Normally, he would eat and live well. When he saw that the people around him were either his own maidservant s or people who held him up, he would naturally not have such bizarre thoughts. However, this could not have happened in such a short time, and it just so happened to be such a huge matter. This little girl suddenly jumped out at this critical moment, pulling him back from this life and death situation. He had heard about the heroes saving beauties, and the gentle love of chivalrous women. All of them had appeared, and he thought that all of this was just a matter of himself. Because of that little boy's heart, he couldn't stop trembling.
That was why she met Gu Jinyu.
Logically speaking, this should be considered as being out of town, but looking at Gu Jinyu, he actually had a sense of shyness, and embarrassment ?
"My sister?" "Why are you looking for my sister?"
Jiuniang? Xu Tianci had only met Jiuniang once, and Xu Tianci had waited half a month just to meet Jiuniang? And what did he mean by 'saving a life'?
Frowning, Gu Jinyu's face changed, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Pushing Xu Tianci aside, he walked two steps forward and pulled the distance between the two of them and asked with a stern expression on his face, "My sister doesn't understand, she has never saved you, and there's nothing to be grateful for. Please go home."
With something on his mind, Gu Jinyu turned quickly and decided not to go to the Academy. After all, he was not in a rush to take care of these things, and what he was worried about right now was Jiuniang.
These days, he had suspected that Jiuniang did not tell him about the things that had happened. Logically speaking, even if he fell on the ground, the pus on his face wouldn't dare to leak out so much, but Jiuniang didn't tell him about it, so she shouldn't ask. It might have hurt Jiuniang's heart to ask too many questions, but it did not seem to be simple at the moment ?
It was better for him to ask clearly.
