"I... how would I know..." Hua Qingwu looked very guilty.

Tianyu pouted and said, "Of course you wouldn't know! You old woman who only knows how to grow flowers!"

Hearing Tian Yu's sharp words, everyone frowned, feeling indignant on Hua Qingwu's behalf.

Hua Qingwu remained silent and offered no rebuttal.

Seeing Hua Qingwu's pitiful expression, Tianyu said irritably, "Always putting on that wronged and pitiful look, it's so annoying!"

“I didn’t…” Hua Qingwu said with a wronged expression.

Tian Yu snorted coldly, "Alright, tell me! You old woman, you can't stay idle and come out here again. You're not here to ask me for a beating, are you?"

"You were the one who ambushed me last time, and you still have the nerve to say that? If we fight again, I definitely won't lose to you!" Hua Qingwu finally couldn't help but speak up angrily.

"Who told you, you stupid woman, to expose your weaknesses to me? You asked for it!" Tianyu retorted, a smug smile on her face.

"You..." Hua Qingwu was almost crying with anger.

Last time they competed, Hua Qingwu was very modest, thinking that Tianyu would admit defeat if she knew she couldn't beat her. Who knew that Tianyu would take advantage of her unpreparedness and injure her, causing her to fall into the pool. Because of this, Tianqi would nag her every few days, forbidding her from going out again.

However, Tianyu was also punished by Tianmeng, the master of Tingyu Pavilion, and was forced to face the wall in Tingyu Pavilion for three years.

"What do you mean, 'you'? If you're really that capable, then fight me again!" Tianyu shouted.

Since their fight, she was not only forced to face the wall in silence, but also belittled by everyone in Tingyu Pavilion, who all said that Hua Qingwu had allowed her to win by sheer luck.

Tears welled up in Hua Qingwu's eyes. Seeing this, Tianqi stepped forward and said, "Little Yu, can you say less? We're all friends, why make things unpleasant?"

Tian Yu sneered, "I might become friends with you, but I absolutely cannot with this old woman!"

"You..." Tianqi was about to say a few more words of advice when Tianyu impatiently said, "Alright, Brother Tianqi, you don't need to play peacemaker! Tingyu Pavilion is preparing to refine the next batch of medicine and will be closing soon. If you don't have anything else to do, you should leave now!"

"Hmph!" Upon hearing Tian Yu's words, Hua Qingwu turned and left without saying another word.

Seeing Hua Qingwu leave with a wronged expression, Gu Yan hurriedly followed, "Miss Qingwu!"

Tianqi frowned and advised Tianyu, "Little Yu, it's just a misunderstanding between you and Qingwu. Don't take it out on her!"

"Misunderstanding? There's no misunderstanding between her and me! You should leave now!" Tianyu said angrily.

"You... sigh!" Seeing that he couldn't persuade Tianyu, Tianqi sighed helplessly and left.

"A bunch of annoying guys, they're all on her side..." Tianyu muttered, watching Tianqi's retreating figure.

Just as he was about to turn back, he saw that Gu Liyan, Gu Li, and Mo Chen had not left. He asked in confusion, "Why haven't you three left yet?"

"I haven't asked the questions I needed to ask, and I haven't gotten the answers I wanted to get, so naturally I won't leave," Gu Liyan said with a smile.

Tian Yu frowned as she looked at Gu Liyan, narrowed her eyes and asked coldly, "I saw that old woman holding your hand just now. Do you like her?"

Gu Liyan shook his head and then nodded.

"You shook your head and then nodded, what does that mean?" Tianyu asked, puzzled.

“Shaking my head is because I don’t deny it, nodding is because I don’t want to admit it!” Gu Liyan said with a smile.

Tian Yu was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "You're quite clever, little one! You figured out that I have a grudge against her, so you didn't dare to tell the truth or offend me!"

“It has nothing to do with offending anyone, it’s just that I already have someone I like, so I can’t answer your question,” Gu Liyan said.

Tian Yu frowned, finding Gu Liyan somewhat unfathomable. Thinking of the questions Gu Liyan had asked and the answers he wanted to know, she immediately asked, "Go ahead and tell me what you want to know. If I know the answer, I can tell you!"

Gu Liyan was overjoyed upon hearing this. "I want to know if there are any strangers coming and going from Tingyu Pavilion, especially people outside the Celestial Clan."

“Tingyu Pavilion is a medical clinic. Those who come and go are either doctors or patients. If it weren’t for the Celestial Clan coming here, all the doctors would have noticed the unusual aura. These past few days have been calm, so I don’t think there are any strangers here,” Tianyu said after thinking for a moment.

Gu Liyan nodded. "Oh, I see. Thank you so much, Aunt Tianyu!"

After Gu Liyan finished speaking, he turned to Gu Li and Mo Chen and said, "Let's go and look at other places!"

"good!"

"kindness!"

Gu Li and Mo Chen nodded in agreement.

Gu Liyan was about to leave when Tian Yu said impatiently, "Stop!"

Gu Liyan and the other two stopped in their tracks. Tian Yu leaped down and landed in front of Gu Liyan. "You look quite handsome, and I don't dislike you, but why do you talk so irritatingly! Who's your aunt? Am I that youngest?"

Gu Liyan smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, it's because my name is Qingwu, and she's also my aunt, so I just subconsciously..."

"Oh?" Tianyu's eyes lit up, and she said with a spoiled and willful expression, "I don't care, you have to call me sister! I don't want to be on the same level as that old woman, it makes me look old!"

Gu Liyan was both amused and exasperated, and could only call out, "Sister!"

"Hmm! That's a good boy!" Tianyu said with a sly look, "Good little brother, you're mine now. If that old woman Hua Qingwu bullies you, just tell me, and I'll beat her to a pulp!"

Gu Liyan nodded.

Gu Liyan's lips twitched involuntarily. If Tianyu knew that he was actually Hua Qingwu's son, he would probably kill himself on the spot!
