While Shen Qian and Wan Ning were talking, he didn't notice that in a shadowy corner nearby, a complex gaze was also watching him.
For the past three or four months, the boy has been lost in the flowers and applause of his hometown, almost thinking that he has forgotten everything.
He never expected to run into Shen Qian here again.
"Why did you come to Jiangzhong too..." the boy said softly through gritted teeth.
"You probably haven't read the newspapers. Don't you know that he ultimately chose Jiang Zhongjun?"
Another clear voice rang out behind the boy, carrying a hint of mockery.
The boy remained silent, but the owner of the voice wouldn't let him off the hook, chuckling to himself, "Oh, I almost forgot, does Tongcheng only broadcast local news? No, wait, you can always see the newspapers in Mingcheng, right? The page that announces the college entrance exam results is quite interesting..."
"Li Jiaqi!"
The boy finally couldn't hold back any longer. He suddenly turned around and glared fiercely at the girl with bright eyes and white teeth wearing a short skirt. "Don't think that just because you have a teacher around, I won't dare to touch you!"
"Yes, that's what I think. What are you waiting for?"
The girl stretched lazily, revealing her beautiful, youthful curves, but she didn't seem to care about the boy's rude attitude at all.
"Geng Qianqiu, you were no match for me four months ago, and you are no match now!"
"hehe."
The boy narrowed his eyes, exuding a dangerous aura.
"Speaking of which, haven't you been waiting for the day you could meet Shen Qian again? Why don't you just go and challenge him? Don't tell me you've been busy accepting gifts for the past four months, have you?"
Li Jiaqi, seemingly oblivious, chuckled.
Geng Qianqiu remained silent for a while, but suddenly calmed down. He glanced at Li Jiaqi with disdain, without offering any explanation, and then turned and walked towards where his companions were.
Li Jiaqi stared at Geng Qianqiu's retreating figure, the smile on her face slowly fading, replaced by a thoughtful expression.
Geng Qianqiu has indeed become stronger...
At least Li Jiaqi found that she could no longer see through the other person.
It seems the rumors were true; the humiliation of the college entrance exam turned into motivation for him. It is said that Uncle Kunhu personally intervened, giving Geng Qianqiu a tremendous ordeal that transformed him completely.
She knew that Geng Qianqiu must harbor great hostility or fighting spirit towards Shen Qian.
However, it seems that the other party is still waiting for some opportunity.
...And what about yourself?
Li Jiaqi turned her head slightly and glanced at the boy standing at the workshop entrance not far away, her eyes filled with both anger and confusion.
The anger stemmed from the fact that Shen Qian's gaze had already swept over him when he entered the courtyard, but... Shen Qian didn't seem to recognize him at all!
Who is that long-legged, beautiful woman next to him?
And that bodyguard-like man with an unfathomable aura...
Putting all that aside, the changes in Shen Qian's body were also enormous.
Li Jiaqi couldn't pinpoint the exact source of these changes, but she was certain the other person was completely different.
If the feeling she got from Geng Qianqiu after several months was that he had been reborn, then the feeling she got from Shen Qian was... indescribable.
She couldn't quite explain the feeling, but she knew that she couldn't have stayed in one place for the next four months before sinking.
Her confusion stemmed from the fact that, driven by some inexplicable impulse, she chose Jiangzhong Military Academy when filling out her college application.
This is quite different from the usual choices made by geniuses from ancient martial arts families.
Putting aside her distracting thoughts, Li Jiaqi followed Geng Qianqiu into that small circle.
The formation of this small circle was somewhat accidental, but all the participants were freshmen from Jiangzhong Military Academy this year, and each of them came from a decent family. The instructors had various connections with each other, and they were all members of the Thousand Star Society.
Li Jiaqi's involvement was purely for the purpose of obtaining information more conveniently and quickly.
"Qianqiu, Jiaqi, come quick! Shicong just said he knows how to get Master Gu to help!"
A young man greeted the two warmly.
Upon hearing this, Geng Qianqiu and Li Jiaqi became curious and quickly moved closer.
The reason these people were here was not to gather together to chat and eat sunflower seeds, but to ask Master Gu to forge a powerful and suitable psionic weapon.
They also had more comprehensive intelligence than the average person, knowing that getting Master Gu to help was not something that could be easily solved with money.
The "Shi Cong" mentioned by the young people is currently one of the young men who is showing signs of becoming the leader among their group of new military students.
The other party's full name is Ye Shicong. He comes from the wealthy Jiangnan region. He not only comes from a military family, but is also the top martial arts champion in the second province of Jiangnan. He is usually very well-informed.
After Li Jiaqi and Geng Qianqiu joined them, Ye Shicong smiled mysteriously and slowly said, "I asked an acquaintance in the Alchemy Association and learned some inside information."
Li Jiaqi rolled her eyes. She was actually quite annoyed by Ye Shicong's pretentious attitude, but he seemed to think it made him more sophisticated.
"Brother Ye, hurry up and tell us!"
Someone couldn't help but urge them on.
Ye Shicong deliberately waited a while, until everyone was getting a little impatient, before he spoke leisurely.
“Gu Yunlan used to take on jobs quite often more than a year ago, but a year ago, another founder of Fengyun Blacksmith Shop, her sworn brother Ran Feng, had an accident in the restricted area and subsequently fell into a coma with serious injuries and never woke up again. That’s why she is in her current state.”
After a moment of reflection, Geng Qianqiu seemed to realize something, "So the key to getting her to help actually lies with that Ran Feng?"
