"Go ahead and run! Why don't you run? How am I supposed to know if the skills I've learned are useful if you don't run!"

Seeing Murong Xiaoxiao's furious expression, Gu Liyan chuckled, "Alright, since that's how it is, then I'll run away!"

Before Murong Xiaoxiao could react, Gu Liyan darted away and disappeared from sight.

Murong Xiaoxiao stared wide-eyed at Gu Liyan's fleeing figure in disbelief, almost fainting: He ran way too fast!

Without thinking twice, Murong Xiaoxiao immediately started shouting, "Fox demon, don't run away!"

Gu Liyan had already run several streets when he heard Murong Xiaoxiao's shouts from afar. He stopped and stood there waiting for her, unable to help but smile wryly, "Does this child want me to run or not?"

Murong Xiaoxiao ran to Gu Liyan, already exhausted and collapsed on the ground, panting heavily. She pointed at Gu Liyan, her face flushed with anger, but she couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Gu Liyan couldn't help but chuckle, then flipped his hand and took out a water bag, handing it to her.

Murong Xiaoxiao snatched it away, gulped down a large mouthful, and finally recovered. Pointing at Gu Liyan, she jumped up and down in anger, "You audacious fox demon, how dare you, how dare you use magic in the street! You..."

The conversation abruptly stopped. Gu Liyan flipped his hand and took out a lollipop, a snack that didn't exist in this world, and handed it to Murong Xiaoxiao. "Want some?"

Murong Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up when she saw the starry sky lollipop, and her mouth watered as she nodded uncontrollably.

Gu Liyan smiled slightly and gave the lollipop to Murong Xiaoxiao. Watching Murong Xiaoxiao happily eating the lollipop, Gu Liyan sighed and felt a little guilty. He had promised her that her brother would take good care of her, but he didn't expect that he still hadn't taken good care of Mu Qing and had been neglecting his concern for her.

Gu Liyan sighed and subconsciously patted her head, but just then, a furious shout suddenly rang out.

"You lecherous scoundrel, stop right there!"

Gu Liyan turned his head and saw a pretty woman dressed in men's clothing, with her hair in a ponytail, pointing at him angrily as she walked over.

Gu Liyan stared in astonishment at the woman disguised as a man who was charging aggressively towards him. How could this woman look so much like Murong Xiaoxiao?!

No, they're all cut from the same cloth!
