Although Gong Yuanzheng didn't quite understand what she meant, he found it quite amusing just thinking about it. And all her fear stemmed from a lack of gunpowder—the Gong family had plenty of that, yet they hadn't managed to eliminate Wufeng.
Filled with unspeakable confusion, the group finally arrived at the Shang Palace. Gong Zishang stood nervously at the entrance, waiting for Gong Shangjiao's arrival. Upon seeing Gong Yuanzheng who had come along, her face darkened slightly.
But when she shifted her gaze and saw Gong Ruanruan who had come with them, her face immediately lit up with joy, and she quickly went to greet her. She bypassed Gong Shangjiao and went straight to Gong Ruanruan, took her little hand, coughed a few times, and said in a high-pitched voice while striking a pose, "I didn't expect Ruanruan to come too. You'd better stick close to your big sister later. Look how tender her little face is!"
Gong Yuanzheng looked at Gong Zishang with disdain, whose face changed faster than flipping through a book. Ruan Ruan clearly belonged to him, so what did she mean by getting so close!
If Gong Zishang could hear his thoughts, he would only retort sarcastically: "You're no match for Yuanzheng, little brother. You and Gong Shangjiao are the real masters of changing faces!"
"Okay~" Gong Ruanruan readily agreed, completely unaware that Gong Yuanzheng was looking at her pitifully on the other side. He looked like a little dog that had lost its owner, with its tail drooping and its whole body exuding "I'm unhappy, I'm unhappy!"
Gong Shangjiao stood there watching the three of them put on a show, without saying a word to help his younger brother. He just stood by and watched. Jin Fudu, on the other hand, thought it was a bit unreasonable that his master hadn't said anything. It was normal for Young Master Jiao not to help, but this spectator's expression was really out of place!
Back off! Back off! Back off! Whoever you are, get off Young Master Jiao!
Immediately, Gong Zishang sensed the awkward atmosphere and turned around, smiling broadly, saying, "Quick! Let's go in. Young Master, the weapon I've developed this time will definitely cripple Wufeng!" She was extremely confident in her research; she and Xiao Hei had worked day and night for over half a month, and if they didn't obtain something useful...
The two of them were so anxious that they were rolling around on the ground. In some ways, Gong Zishang and Hua Gongzi were quite similar.
Xiao Hei was eating fruit in the forge, casually fiddling with the tools on the table, wondering if the young lady would be arriving soon. It was usually around this time, but today Xiao Hei hadn't told Gong Zishang beforehand that he was coming.
Gong Zishang still instinctively felt that he was a guard of the Feather Palace. Although his skills were extremely high, Gong Zishang had never doubted it. To be precise, all his energy was focused on developing weapons, and he was so engrossed that he had no time to pay attention to anything else.
"Squeak!"
"Big Sister... Sister!!!"
Hearing the door open, Xiao Hei turned around and shouted, but all he saw was Miyazaki walking at the front!
The groundhog screamed: Ahhhhhhh!!
Just because Gong Zishang doesn't recognize him doesn't mean Gong Shangjiao doesn't. They just met recently. If Gong Shangjiao knew he often ran from the back mountain to the front mountain, he and his father would break his legs!
Although Young Master Hua is a few years older than Gong Shangjiao, just looking at Gong Shangjiao's aura makes one want to kneel down involuntarily. Plus, with Young Master Zheng's sharp tongue, he's definitely doomed these next few days!!! My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died. Sigh...
"Xiao Hei, what are you standing there for? Don't you recognize them?" Gong Zishang looked at the dazed Xiao Hei and felt that something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. Anyway, as long as it didn't affect her weapon demonstration, it was perfectly fine.
"Greetings, Young Master, Young Master Zheng, Madam Ruan!" Xiao Hei cupped its hands, trying to subtly move away and minimize its presence, but how could Gong Yuanzheng, with his sharp tongue, let such a golden opportunity slip by?
Hua Gongzi may seem a bit carefree, but he's still better than that guard Jin Fan. Gong Zishang, with her love-struck mind, hasn't thought of Jin Fan yet. If she did, she'd probably go back to the old ways and chase after him!
No matter what, he is Gong Zishang's younger brother, and with certain things going on, compared to the other two, Hua Gongzi and Gong Zishang are a better match.
