It took Cheng Xuqing a while to understand the logic behind Gu Shi's words. He spoke uncertainly, "You said you are Qin Shihuang? What's going on? You're a man dressed as a woman and you're in a relationship?"
"What are you thinking! How is that possible?" Gu Shi punched Cheng Xuqing's back hard. "Where did you hear such an outrageous rumor? It has absolutely nothing to do with the truth."
Qi Yu felt that his sincere feelings just now were all in vain, and he quickly asked: "So what is going on with this matter?"
After calming down a bit, Gu Shi explained with a bit of a smile: "The Li Hui you just mentioned did have an accident, but the reason for his accident has nothing to do with emotional problems."
Gu Shi roughly explained the whole incident to the three of them, and then couldn't help but sigh, "I don't know who started this rumor. The person who was able to distort it into such a completely unrecognizable form is truly a genius."
Zhao Zhize's tone was also filled with a hint of laughter, "I guess this is probably not the masterpiece of a single person. At the beginning, there should be only some groundless rumors. After being passed down by word of mouth and continuously polished, it finally became what it is now.
But to be able to turn Qin Shi Huang into Qin Shi Huang and even casually change your personality, the rumors are really unreasonable."
After learning the truth, Cheng Xuqing lost his initial excitement. "Although I know that what you said is the truth, but this way, doesn't it completely ruin the fun of gossip?"
"What's wrong with you? I always feel like you have a lot of anger in your heart that you can't vent." Gu Shi looked at Cheng Xuqing strangely. Although he also liked to spread some gossip in the past, he was not as urgent as he is now.
Qi Yu jokingly said, "What else can he do? He must have been holding it in for too long."
Ever since they received the unexpected fortune last time, the three of them no longer had to worry about living expenses. Taking this opportunity, Zhao Zhize started to help the two of them practice.
Qi Yu was fine because he rarely left the school, so it was unlikely that he would encounter danger. He was just doing some ordinary exercise, but Cheng Xuqing was in a terrible situation.
Cheng Xuqing is a person who can't sit still and likes to explore new things. Zhao Zhize can see that he still wants to go out and adventure.
For the safety of both of them, Zhao Zhize forced Cheng Xuqing to undergo some devilish training during this period. With sufficient resources to support them, their strength has increased visibly.
However, the continuous boring training seriously suppressed Cheng Xuqing's nature. He didn't get a vacation until the Chinese New Year, so he seemed too lively.
Cheng Xuqing felt sad when he recalled the previous days, but when he thought about the next arrangements, he became happy again.
He said with a smile: "Although the previous training was indeed hard, it was not in vain, and my efforts were rewarded accordingly.
"And I've already agreed with Zhao Zhize that after the New Year, we'll go out and continue our previous adventure. I'll leave you alone in the dormitory, so don't get lonely!"
Qi Yu rolled his eyes at Cheng Xuqing and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Are you pretending that those people who studied potions with me don't exist? I don't spend much time in the dormitory anyway."
Listening to their quarrel, Gu Shi and Zhao Zhize looked at each other helplessly and simply let them go.
Zhao Zhize turned around and asked Gu Shi, "You didn't seem to mention what happened to Li Hui just now. Is he okay?"
Gu Shi shook his head. "I don't know either. He hasn't been found yet, but judging by the current situation, he shouldn't be in danger of death for the time being."
Zhao Zhize sighed, "I hope he can come back safely. After all, he suffered an unexpected disaster."
Gu Shi comforted him, "Well, Li Hui will definitely be fine."
Even though he has not met the real Li Hui yet, Gu Shi sincerely hopes that he will be safe.

Gu Shi had a very happy New Year, but he did not stay in school for long. He left right after Cheng Xuqing and Zhao Zhize left, and Qi Yu also returned to work after the holiday.
Because he had heard Cheng Xuqing tell that outrageous gossip when he was in school, Gu Shi became concerned about the follow-up of the incident. Every time he returned to the base, he would ask Li Feng about it.
Originally, Gu Shi thought that the person would be caught soon, but who knew that the descendant of the Walter family had such excellent hiding skills that it took almost half a year without any results.
However, the three missing students were found one after another. Unfortunately, after the mental imprint was removed, they had no memory of what happened during this period and could not provide any information.
Wang Feng has been feeling very proud these days. He took advantage of this incident and successfully did Congleton School of Magic a favor, and successfully boarded this big ship.
As one of the oldest magic academies in the Igrit Empire, Congleton Magic Academy houses many magic and combat skills that are rarely seen outside.
These magic and combat skills are Wang Feng’s target.
Over the years that the school has been operating in the other world, the focus of collecting illustrations has always been on animal and plant illustrations, but as the number of collectible illustrations decreases, it is time for them to shift their focus.
Although the relationship between them at Congleton School of Magic has not yet developed to the point where they can exchange magic and combat skills, Wang Feng firmly believes that as long as they are attentive enough, this day will come.
At the same time, in order to thank Gu Shi for his key role in this matter, Wang Feng applied for a generous reward for him, which made Gu Shi's small treasury even thicker.
As time passed, since everyone had returned, Gu Shi gradually put this matter behind him.
Unexpectedly, on this day, when Gu Shi returned to the base, he met an unexpected person in Wang Feng's office.
"Knock, knock, knock, Captain Wang, can I come in?"
Because he saw someone else walked into Wang Feng's office before him, in order not to disturb Wang Feng's normal work, Gu Shi specifically asked outside the door.
Wang Feng's voice soon came from inside the door, "It's you, it's okay, come in."
Gu Shi pushed open the door and saw the familiar figure standing by the desk.
He exclaimed in surprise, "Li Hui?!"
Hearing his name, Li Hui turned around and looked at Gu Shi twice. He seemed to have never seen this person before.
After thinking for a moment, he showed a bit of confusion on his face, and asked doubtfully: "Classmate, do we know each other? Sorry, my memory is not very good."
