After a full day of intensive investigation, Xie Yan finally succeeded in tailoring a plan for Gu Bin to pursue Zhang Linghui.
The core of the plan can be summed up in three words: "Rely on sincerity!"
Gu Bin: "???"
His eyes widened instantly.
After trying to hold back, she couldn't help but roll her eyes and complained speechlessly, "So this is the result you got after spending a whole day investigating?"
Xie Yan nodded vigorously with a very serious expression. "That's right! But don't rush, let me explain in detail."
Xie Yan paused slightly, gathered his thoughts, and continued, "Zhang Linghui is a clever and insightful person. I think she probably saw through the things you did before."
"But she knew all about your tricks, yet she didn't stop you. Have you thought about what that means?"
Gu Bin's initially disappointed eyes instantly lit up, and he eagerly replied, "She knew but didn't stop it, doesn't that mean I have a chance?"
Xie Yan nodded again seriously, replying with certainty, "Yes! You have a chance!"
Then, he earnestly advised, "From now on, stop using those cobbled-together tricks. Show your sincerity and genuine feelings, understand? Pursue her seriously, and I think you still have a good chance of winning her heart."
"Furthermore, avoid being glib and smooth-talking; girls hate that the most. Actions speak louder than words."
Gu Bin nodded thoughtfully, but quickly looked doubtful and asked, "Can I really trust your method?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Yan felt extremely dissatisfied with being constantly doubted like this. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, half-jokingly and half-threateningly, "What do you think? Look at my happy and fulfilling life now, isn't that enough to prove my vision and methods?"
"Besides, I've never pursued anyone, but I've been pursued!"
"What kind of behavior is most touching? Do you think I don't know?"
Gu Bin thought about it for a moment and realized that made sense. He nodded happily and said excitedly, "That's right! How could I have forgotten about this? Hahaha! My happiness for the rest of my life depends on you, brother."
Xie Yan slightly raised his chin and nodded. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you... doing well at home?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Bin froze as if struck by lightning. After a long while, he sighed with a wry smile and said, "Sigh! I thought I had concealed it well enough."
Seeing this, Xie Yan reached out and gently put his hand on Gu Bin's shoulder, a warm smile on his face, and said with a smile, "We're best buddies, how could I not have noticed what you were up to?"
Gu Bin laughed along and explained, "Nothing serious happened at home. My grandma probably noticed that I wasn't doing well recently, so she wrote me a letter saying that everything is fine at home and that I should focus on my training and not worry about things at home."
"He even scolded me, sigh!"
After hearing this, Xie Yan finally felt relieved and smiled, offering his blessings: "That's good. Okay, I wish you success in winning over the woman you've been longing for soon."
Gu Bin nodded seriously and said confidently, "With your brilliant strategies, I'm sure I can win her over!"
After that day, Gu Bin began his pursuit of her, sometimes not even coming home for meals.
After dinner, Xie Yan lay on the warm kang (heated brick bed) again, contemplating life.
Why!
Another lonely and desolate day!
At the same time, Yu Yuehui was sitting cross-legged, practicing internal energy cultivation.
Gu Che was very particular about martial arts training, and his first requirement for Yuehui was: "Pay attention to the time."
As dawn breaks and the hour of Mao (5-7 AM) approaches, a fresh and pure atmosphere rises between heaven and earth.
Practicing martial arts at this time is as if one can absorb this vigorous energy into the body. With each breath, it helps the circulation of qi and blood, and invigorates the muscles and bones. He will teach martial arts such as Moon Return Tai Chi, which emphasizes the harmony of breath and the gentleness of movements, to nourish qi and strengthen the body.
At noon, the sun is high in the sky, and the yang energy is at its peak.
At this time, he honed his strength and skills, drawing upon the abundant yang energy of heaven and earth to unleash his potential. He then took Yu Yue back to the training ground he had cleared in the mountains to practice powerful techniques such as swordsmanship and spear fighting. The flashing blades and flying spear tassels displayed a fierce and imposing presence.
As night falls and all is quiet at midnight, the yin energy is at its peak, making it the perfect time to cultivate internal energy.
Yu Yuehui sat quietly in the thatched hut, abandoning all distracting thoughts. He sat cross-legged, guiding his Qi with his mind, allowing it to circulate through the eight extraordinary meridians, absorbing the Yin energy of heaven and earth to nourish his internal organs and warm his inner breath.
Gu Che's voice came from the side, "Don't think this is boring or tedious. As your internal strength deepens and your aura becomes more mellow, you can make steady progress on the path of martial arts."
Yu Yue nodded.
After today's practice, Yu Yuehui silently followed Gu Che down the mountain. Her heart was pounding like a rabbit's; after much hesitation, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Master, I want to ask, can I practice at home tonight?"
After saying that, she stared nervously at Gu Che's back, her eyes filled with anticipation and unease.
Actually, Yu Yuehui wasn't being lazy and didn't want to practice; it was just that she and Xie Yan had been apart for too long. These days, every night when she returned home, all she saw was Xie Yan's sleeping face. Although he was very handsome, she still wanted to be affectionate with him and talk to him.
Now they rarely even have a proper conversation, and if this continues, she feels like she's about to suffocate.
Seeing that Gu Che did not respond immediately, Yu Yuehui became even more flustered and hurriedly added cautiously, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely cultivate diligently. It's just..."
She bit her lip and continued, "My mother once told me that couples shouldn't be separated for too long, otherwise their relationship will easily change. You have no idea how much effort I put into pursuing Xie Yan. What would I do if our relationship was damaged because we're apart so often?"
Hearing this, Gu Che sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, from now on you can practice at home on your own every night. I originally arranged for you to practice at night to help you develop a habit, and once it becomes a natural habit, you will be able to practice on your own."
"Now it's like I'm the villain who's getting in the way of your married life."
Upon hearing Gu Che's agreement, Yu Yuehui was overjoyed and almost jumped for joy. She hurriedly assured him, "Master, you can rest assured! I will definitely practice hard and never miss a day. I will never let you down!"
As for what her master said next, I'm sorry, I was too excited to hear it clearly.
Looking at Yu Yuehui's excited appearance, Gu Che shook his head helplessly. He thought of Lin Yu again.
He had already inquired around here and there was no one named Lin Yu.
