404: Chapter 404: Thank you, but no need 404: Chapter 404: Thank you, but no need “Gu Zhiqi, you dare hit ?!” Hu Shiyu clutched her face, disbelief mingling with fury in her eyes, as she clawed her way toward Gu Zhiqi.
A frown creased Gu Zhiqi’s brow, a flash of impatience in her eyes.
Seeing Hu Shiyu lunging at her, Gu Zhiqi didn’t hesitate further and kicked her opponent squarely.
“Boom”
“Ugh”
As the sound of Hu Shiyu hitting the ground rang out, she let out a muffled groan.
This stunned the onlookers once again.
When Hu Shiyu had been slapped earlier, so hadn’t seen it, and others hadn’t been paying close attention, so they didn’t know how Gu Zhiqi had struck.
But this ti, they had been watching Gu Zhiqi closely.
Hu Shiyu had hit the floor, but… how did she fall?
Had Gu Zhiqi even moved?
They hadn’t caught it at all.
“Gu Zhiqi!
You dare hit , you little…” Hu Shiyu started cursing but pain cut her off, and she could only moan in agony, clutching her stomach.
Listening to Hu Shiyu’s words, Gu Zhiqi lazily curved her lips, a hint of devilish arrogance coloring her brows as she looked down imperiously at Hu Shiyu on the ground, “I’ve hit you already, dare I not?”
“You dare hit Sister Yu, you’re finished,” Hu Shiyu’s lackey said, helping her up while glaring fiercely at Gu Zhiqi.
Gu Zhiqi ignored them and took a couple of steps forward.
Seeing this, the lackey half pushed, half pulled Hu Shiyu back several steps, “You, don’t co any closer!”
Gu Zhiqi couldn’t be bothered with them anymore and walked past the table, heading toward the exit.
Just as she stepped out of the classroom, she found three people standing at the door.
One of them was Gu Xiyue.
Seeing Gu Zhiqi erge, all three cast nuanced glances her way.
The defiant and wicked air around Gu Zhiqi hadn’t fully dissipated, giving off an air of soone not to be trifled with.
Both Gu Xiyue and Shen Yu’s eyes held a probing look, while Lin Junya took a couple of steps back, sowhat frightened.
She hadn’t seen how Gu Zhiqi had struck, and wondered if this woman had learned so “Evil Technique”.
Upon seeing Gu Xiyue, Gu Zhiqi nodded at her, then headed for the stairwell.
“Wait a mont,” Gu Xiyue called out, stopping Gu Zhiqi.
Gu Zhiqi paused and turned back to look at Gu Xiyue, her eyes tinted with a questioning light.
Perhaps because she had just been in a fight, her gaze was sowhat indolent and cool, lacking patience.
Gu Xiyue seed to ignore the aloof impatience in her eyes and said evenly, “Dad said you might be unfamiliar with the school, he asked to take you to lunch.”
“Thanks, but no need.”
She preferred being on her own anyway.
Having said that, Gu Zhiqi then turned around and left.
Gu Xiyue moved her lips as if she wanted to say sothing more but, in the end, remained silent.
“No way, Yueyue, the person you were looking for was Gu Zhiqi?” Lin Junya was stunned, barely turning her eyes, looking incredulously at Gu Xiyue.
“I promised Dad,” Gu Xiyue replied casually, “Let’s go, we’ll have lunch.”
Lin Junya knew well that once Gu Xiyue promised soone sothing, she would do it.
With a slight curl of her lips, she complained, “What the heck?
Gu Zhiqi has been at this school for two years, if anyone should be taking you to lunch, it should be her taking you.”
Thinking of Gu Zhiqi’s recent attitude added a touch of discomfort to her feelings, but she said no more.
“Brother Yue, has Gu Zhiqi…
trained?” Shen Yu looked at Gu Xiyue as he asked.
By training, he obviously wasn’t referring to ordinary self-defense but to Ancient Martial Arts.
“Mhm,” Gu Xiyue responded blandly with a hum.
