Gu Zhiqi had just stepped out from behind the potted plants and heard Lu Xingzhe’s question, imdiately understanding that Mo Weiran called her "Miss."
Looking at Mo Weiran, whose face was bruised and swollen, Gu Zhiqi didn’t recognize him at first.
He was recognizable only because of his distinctive blond hair and the way he addressed her.
Gazing at Mo Weiran’s ghostly appearance, Gu Zhiqi was silent for a few seconds, then stepped forward.
Hearing Mo Weiran call her Miss, Lu Xingzhe paused slightly, rembering that this kid had apparently sought out Gu Zhiqi several tis before.
But the few teenagers who had beaten Mo Weiran were much more than just stunned.
Seeing Mo Weiran seed quite familiar with Gu Zhiqi, and that Lu Xingzhe appeared to respect Gu Zhiqi, the few teenagers were a little panicked and began to feel anxious.
"Don’t be afraid, she’s Gu Zhiqi, the adopted daughter of the Gu Family, already kicked out of the Gu Family." One of the teenagers recognized Gu Zhiqi and whispered to the others.
"But how co I’ve heard she actually hasn’t been kicked out of the Gu Family?" Another teenager asked, a bit fearfully.
"She must have been kicked out, just look at how she’s dressed now, much worse than before."
"But, if she’s with Young Master Lu, won’t that..."
"Don’t worry, Young Master Lu and Gu Zhiqi are not familiar at all. Half a year ago, I personally saw Young Master Lu make Gu Zhiqi cry."
The few teenagers whispered among themselves.
They thought their voices were low enough for others not to hear, but Gu Zhiqi and her companions, who practiced Ancient Martial Arts, heard them clearly.
Lu Xingzhe’s face turned slightly dark, his gaze coldly staring at them.
Qiao Qingshu’s face also didn’t look too good.
Gu Zhiqi wasn’t bothered. She stood in front of the teenagers, speaking casually, "The injuries on him, are they your doing?"
Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s question, Lu Xingzhe and Qiao Qingshu paused slightly, glancing between Gu Zhiqi and Mo Weiran.
Was she trying...to stand up for Mo Weiran?
The teenagers looked at each other upon hearing Gu Zhiqi’s question, then one of them stepped forward, chin raised, looking at Gu Zhiqi, "Why? Want to stand up for him? Who do you think you are? Still think you’re the Gu Family’s young lady... ah!"
The teenager hadn’t finished speaking when Lu Xingzhe grabbed his hand.
The teenager let out a miserable cry, then spoke timidly to Lu Xingzhe, "Lu, Lu Young Master, wh...what’s wrong?"
"What’s wrong? How do you speak to Master Zhi, who isn’t important, hmm?" Lu Xingzhe said, tightening his grip on the teenager’s arm.
The teenager heard this and was first stunned, forgetting to cry out in pain.
Master Zhi?
Gu Zhiqi?
When did she beco Master Zhi?
However, regardless of when she beca Master Zhi, the teenager’s mind quickly turned, starting to admit his mistake, "Lu...Young Master Lu, I was wrong, I really was wrong, it was , I’m not important!"
"Why are you apologizing to ?" Lu Xingzhe rely tightened his grip on the teenager’s arm, his mouth curving into a cold smile.
Hearing this, the teenager imdiately looked at Gu Zhiqi, "Master Zhi, I was wrong."
Gu Zhiqi listened, raised her eyebrows slightly, then asked the teenager, "Then tell , what exactly were you wrong about?"
"I, I shouldn’t have been disrespectful, shouldn’t have disrespected you, shouldn’t have said you weren’t important, I was really wrong, please Master Zhi, forgive ." These words were not spoken willingly by the teenager, he was completely forced, Lu Xingzhe’s grip on his arm caused him unbearable pain.
So, with a face pale with fear, he could only nod and bow to Gu Zhiqi, admitting his mistake.
