Gu Jinxi nodded.
"Then your master must be an excellent person."
Mao Zixiao paused for a moment before hesitantly nodding.
His master provided him with food, drink, and clothing, and taught him many principles and survival skills. He was indeed an excellent person.
Gu Jinxi: "Where is your master? Can I go see him?"
Mao Zixiao, who had been trying to gain Gu Jinxi's trust so he could secretly take her away: ...
Did they just get incredibly lucky?
How could they take Gu Jinxi away without even blowing her away?
He steadied himself, trying to appear calm, and nodded.
"But my master lives far away. Can you go out?"
Gu Jinxi nodded.
"It's okay, I can sneak out."
He lowered his voice as he spoke, “I found a dog hole in the backyard. We can crawl out through the dog hole and then take the carriage from the gate to go out.”
Mao Zixiao nodded happily, his smile almost uncontrollable.
I never imagined there would be a carriage at the door.
However, Mao Zixiao had witnessed the little guy's abilities that day, so just to be on the safe side, he asked one more question.
Why do you want to see my master?
Gu Jinxi's eyes darted around, and she looked at Mao Zixiao, casually making up a lie:
“I like the hidden blade. The hidden blade your master gave you, although it was not very well made, had some clever design. I would like to ask your master how he made it and if he could teach me.”
Mao Zixiao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
But then he casually explained, "My master definitely won't teach me. I begged him for days, but he still wouldn't teach me. So why would he teach you?"
After he finished speaking, he realized he had said something wrong and was afraid that Gu Jinxi would not go because of it, so he quickly shut up.
However, Gu Jinxi smiled slightly and did not say anything more.
Thinking to myself, "Where did he not teach you? He clearly doesn't know how."
The moment Mao Zixiao took out the hidden arrow, Gu Jinxi recognized it as something made by Gu Jingchun himself.
He had just carefully checked and found that it still bore his mother's mark.
Gu Jinxi recalled the way Gu Jingchun looked at Mao Zixiao that day and began to doubt Mao Zixiao's identity.
Moreover, he was certain that Mao Zixiao had deliberately approached him.
Therefore, when Gu Jinxi saw this thing, she immediately thought of these things, which is why she deliberately tried to get Mao Zixiao to talk.
He wanted to see who was taking his mother's things and daring to try and take them from him.
Soon, the two crawled out of the dog hole in the backyard.
Just as they left, Gu Jingchun received the news.
She was taking her medicine when she heard this, so she drank all of it in one gulp and then slammed the bowl down on the table.
"This kid is getting bolder and bolder. If I hadn't sent someone to keep an eye on him, we probably wouldn't even know where he is by now."
Xiaoman responded quietly to this.
"Young Master clearly did this on purpose."
"He deliberately left a message for me so that I could tell you."
Gu Jingchun opened her mouth, wanting to retort, but a candied fruit was placed in her mouth at that moment.
Gu Jingchun's mouth was gagged, so he chewed for a moment and glared at Shen Hechuan.
Shen Hechuan reached out and caught the kernel that Gu Jingchun spat out before saying:
"Alright, didn't you already guess that guy was up to no good, so you specifically ordered people to keep an eye on them? What are you getting angry about now?"
As he spoke, he carefully placed the protruding fruit pit from Gu Jingchun's head and then took out a purse from his pocket.
"You really are contradictory. You want Seele to go fishing for big fish, but you don't want Seele to go out with other people."
As he spoke, he placed another piece of candy into Gu Jingchun's mouth.
Gu Jingchun felt his mouth instantly filled with sweetness, and then he heard Shen Hechuan continue, "The medicine is so bitter, why don't you eat something sweet?"
Gu Jingchun couldn't help but let out a soft hum.
"You think everyone else is like you, taking medicine and eating candy?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Hechuan gently tapped her head.
"You, you ate my candy, and you still dare to talk back to me."
As he spoke, he pulled Gu Jingchun into his arms and gently comforted him:
"Don't worry, Seele is very clever."
This time, they must have discovered something amiss, which is why they deliberately followed the other person.
"Let's hurry over and take a look."
Gu Jingchun nodded, then snorted coldly, smacked Shen Hechuan on the head hard, and strode out with a triumphant air.
Shen Hechuan, who was hit for no reason, was stunned for a moment before shaking his head helplessly. He looked at Gu Jingchun's stupid back with affection and hurriedly chased after him.
Lanxin and Xiaoman, who witnessed the whole thing: ...
Since Gu Jingchun returned, the two of them have been doing this from time to time, treating them like family at all.
At first, they would feel a little embarrassed and would immediately back out.
However, the two of them became increasingly oblivious to their surroundings, and the women eventually got used to it.
Now I can do it without blushing or my heart skipping a beat.
Two hours later, Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan looked at the woods not far away and couldn't help but turn around and ask a question.
Are you sure they've come here?
Shen Hechuan nodded.
“It’s absolutely true. My men saw them go in with their own eyes. We should hurry too.”
To avoid attracting attention, they all dismounted and walked in on foot.
The forest was very large, and it took Gu Jingchun a while to see Gu Jinxi tied up in the middle of the forest.
He was tied to a tree at the moment, and he looked very pitiful.
However, Gu Jingchun immediately realized that this guy was clearly faking it.
Especially his current gaze, which clearly shows a relaxed and carefree attitude.
Upon seeing Gu Jingchun, he subtly shook his head, as if afraid that Gu Jingchun might arrive ahead of time.
Seeing this, Gu Jingchun simply hid with Shen Hechuan.
Mao Zixiao glared at Gu Jinxi fiercely at the way he looked at him.
"I advise you not to try any tricks. I know you are strong, but I have already given you muscle relaxant, and you will soon be powerless."
Gu Jinxi: Why didn't you say so sooner?
Due to his physical condition, ordinary poisons have little effect on him.
Therefore, after Mao Zixiao finished speaking, Gu Jinxi immediately relaxed her body and pretended to be completely powerless.
He asked fearfully, "What are you going to do?"
"I trusted you so much, and I considered you my friend, so why did you lie to me?"
Gu Jinxi looked aggrieved, her eyes filled with tears, and she looked quite pitiful.
Gu Jingchun, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but sigh.
This guy seems to have been reading too many storybooks.
What time is it now? This guy still has the energy to act!
She'll definitely give that little guy a good scolding later.
