“Yes, wearing the Water Spirit Orb will easily attract some demons and monsters. If they get close to you, they will definitely hurt you. I can't be by your side all the time. With this gun, you can better protect yourself.”
Chu Yu handed the Soul-Destroying Spear to Fu Yunche.
Fu Yunche was touched; Chu Yu had actually gone out of her way to buy him the Soul-Destroying Spear.
Chu Yu taught him how to use the Soul-Destroying Spear, and he learned it after practicing once.
"The Soul-Destroying Spear is small and lightweight; you should carry it with you at all times," Chu Yu instructed.
Okay, thank you.
Fu Yunche smiled and thanked him.
Chu Yu smiled and said, "No need to thank me. Protecting you is my responsibility."
Tao Susu laughed and teased, "This isn't a responsibility, it's clearly love! Master, you're really special to your lord."
Chu Yu blushed and quickly explained, "Don't talk nonsense, I was just thinking about his safety."
Tao Susu chuckled: "An explanation is just a cover-up, and a cover-up is the truth."
Huang Dalu, who was watching the show, nodded in agreement: "Su Su is right."
Hearing Tao Susu's teasing, Fu Yunche put the pistol into his pocket, feeling pleased with himself. He thought to himself, "So Chu Yu is very special to him. Does that mean she's also interested in him?"
He became happier the more he thought about it, and secretly decided that he should treat Chu Yu even better in the future.
At this moment, a servant came to report that the old lady of the Gu family had come with Gu Shaoyu and others to thank Chu Yu for saving Gu Shaoyu and Wang Hao.
Chu Yu and Fu Yunche immediately welcomed them into the living room.
After taking their seats, Chu Yu naturally couldn't tell them that she had gone to rescue them on the orders of the Gu family's ancestor, so she said, "I rescued them mainly to clear my name, so you don't need to thank me."
She insisted on not accepting the generous gift from the old lady.
She has already received the reward money and cannot accept any more gifts.
Seeing that she refused the gift, the old lady did not press the matter, and said, "The Gu family owes you a favor this time. If there is anything you need in the future, just give us a word and we will definitely do it for you."
Seeing that she was adamant, Chu Yu didn't want to offend her, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
Afterwards, Chu Yu chatted with the old lady for a while. The old lady admired Chu Yu for her profound cultivation at such a young age, as well as her humility and politeness. She turned to look at Gu Shaoyu with a look of disdain: "You two are the same age. Look at her, and then look at yourself. What kind of behavior is this? You have to learn from her in the future and stop fooling around, understand?"
Gu Shaoyu nodded obediently: "I understand, Grandma."
He looked at Chu Yu and suddenly made a decision.
Half an hour later, the old lady left with her entourage, while Gu Shaoyu stayed behind.
Chu Yu asked, puzzled, "Why didn't you go back with your grandma?"
Gu Shaoyu waved his hand and said, "I have something to discuss with you."
Chu Yu raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is it?"
With a mix of nervousness and anticipation, Gu Shaoyu asked, "Um, can I become your apprentice and learn mystical arts from you?"
After witnessing Chu Yu's abilities, he began to admire her. Last night, he dreamed that he became a Taoist priest, as powerful as Chu Yu, vanquishing demons and monsters everywhere, worshipped by everyone, and hailed as a great hero.
Upon waking up, he was extremely excited and the idea of learning Taoist magic and mystical arts sprouted in his mind.
Just now, the old lady asked him to learn from Chu Yu, and he suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He immediately decided to become Chu Yu's apprentice and have Chu Yu teach him magic.
Chu Yu was somewhat surprised when he asked to become his disciple. After thinking for a moment, she immediately refused: "No, I don't accept disciples at the moment."
Gu Shaoyu's unconventional personality doesn't seem like someone who can learn mystical arts.
Gu Shaoyu asked, puzzled, "Why don't you want to take me as your apprentice? Is it because you think my personality is too volatile? Don't worry, I will definitely change."
Chu Yu thought to herself that he was quite self-aware, but old habits die hard, and she didn't believe he could change.
She didn't expose him, but simply said, "Learning Taoist magic and mystical arts is extremely arduous, and you may not be able to endure that hardship."
Gu Shaoyu, however, was unconvinced and said confidently, "I can endure hardship. I have been learning martial arts since I was a child, and I even spent two years as a lay disciple at Shaolin Temple. I am not as delicate as other rich young masters."
Chu Yu raised an eyebrow: "Learning Taoist magic and esoteric arts is different from learning martial arts. Besides, I'm currently in school and have part-time jobs, so I don't have time to teach you."
Gu Shaoyu had a sudden inspiration and suggested, "How about this, you charge by the hour, like you do tutoring? I'll give you a high price, how about 50,000 yuan per lesson?"
Although Chu Yu was short of money, he believed that learning Taoist arts should not be linked to personal gain.
She flatly refused: "No, Taoist magic is extremely profound, and you can't learn it just by spending money."
Gu Shaoyu was unwilling to give up and wanted to continue to pester her, but was interrupted by Fu Yunche, who said, "My wife said she won't accept it, Gu Shaoyu, stop bothering me."
The cold warning was authoritative, and Gu Shaoyu was startled, so he had no choice but to shut up.
Although he acted arrogantly and called himself the Little Tyrant of the Capital, he was very afraid of Fu Yunche and dared not act recklessly at all.
Chu Yu glanced at Gu Shaoyu, who dared not utter a word, and thought to herself, Fu Yunche is really something else; he shut him up with just one sentence.
Thinking of something, she said to Gu Shaoyu, "Let's not talk about becoming his apprentice for now. There's something urgent that needs to be dealt with."
Gu Shaoyu asked, "What is it?"
Chu Yu said with a deep look in her eyes, "You'll find out when you get to school this afternoon."
...
Afternoon, Kyoto University campus.
Chu Xinmeng was sitting in the classroom reading a book.
She is a junior at Peking University, majoring in jewelry design. She is academically excellent, beautiful, and has won numerous ballet competition awards. She is voted the campus beauty by her fellow students and is very popular.
Several classmates around her were discussing something with strange expressions.
"I heard that Gu Shaoyu has been missing for a long time, and the Gu family is extremely worried. I wonder if he was really captured by Chu Yu and sacrificed as a sacrifice, as rumored?"
"Wow, this is terrifying! How come someone like Chu Yu, who practices evil arts, is still in school? Why don't they arrest her?"
"I heard that she hooked up with Fu Yunche, the richest man in Beijing's elite circles, and even rose to power as a mistress. With Fu Yunche backing her up, how could the school dare to expel her?"
"Tsk tsk, she actually became a mistress and a gold digger. How shameless! She has completely disgraced the school."
The more they talked, the more disdainful they became.
Chu Xinmeng heard their conversation and a sinister sneer flashed in her eyes.
Recently, there have been more and more rumors circulating at school. Chu Yu's reputation has been ruined, and everyone is afraid to talk about her.
Great, that's exactly the effect she wanted.
A sudden commotion broke out outside the classroom, with someone excitedly shouting, "Look, Chu Yu and Gu Shaoyu are here at school!"
These words caused an uproar in the classroom. Everyone rushed out of the classroom and looked towards the opposite corridor, where they saw Chu Yu and Gu Shaoyu striding towards them.
Everyone was stunned. How did these two end up at school together?
Chu Xinmeng looked at them with disbelief.
