She didn’t know when it happened, but Gu Beicheng had already stood up and ca right in front of Xia Yinian.
Feeling the formidable aura of the man, she snapped back to her senses.
Just when she thought he was going to take advantage of her and wanted to retreat, Gu Beicheng began to speak seriously again.
"Just right, I have a project coming up that requires to go to Ye City, if you’re interested, I can take you with ."
Seeing through Xia Yinian’s thoughts, Gu Beicheng slightly curved his lips.
"Old Master Feng is very skilled in alchemy, I heard he has so exclusive secret recipes and he hasn’t found the right successor."
"It seems that he’s waiting for the destined person to appear. The old man is getting on in years and it’s unclear what he’s thinking. He’s treated you well; you should really give it try."
"If you can inherit his true knowledge, you will definitely succeed in the Alchemy Competition."
Xia Yinian bit her lip, her mind sowhat dazed.
She really wanted to go, and she also deeply missed Grandpa Feng, but such a great opportunity wasn’t supposed to be hers, an outsider; it would be wrong no matter how one saw it.
However, the alchemy manual Grandpa Feng had given her last ti did contain many unique formulas, but there were quite a few she couldn’t understand.
If she could personally ask Grandpa Feng, that would be ideal.
Thinking about Old Master Feng’s matters, Xia Yinian dropped her guard against Gu Beicheng significantly.
"So ti ago, Old Master Feng even had soone inquire about you. Perhaps, he misses you too."
Gu Beicheng seed to have found an approach to interact peacefully with his girl; he hooked his lips, a joyful look glimring in his eyes.
"I’ve heard his health’s been deteriorating lately. If you don’t go now, you may never get another chance to see him."
"How is Grandpa Feng?" Xia Yinian tensed up and imdiately looked up at the man in front of her.
But she really hadn’t expected Uncle to be so close to her at this mont.
As soon as she looked up, her lips brushed against his chin.
When did he get so close!
Xia Yinian imdiately took two steps back, her mood was already bad and now Uncle was picking on her.
But then again, it’d be out of character if he didn’t pick on her; she had just ignored that fact before.
"Thank you for the reminder." Keeping her distance from Gu Beicheng, Xia Yinian cast a reproachful look at the man before her.
Her indifference once again pricked at his heart, and this was not what he wanted.
"What, you don’t want to go? Or do you think Ling Qian can take you there?" Gu Beicheng hooked his lips again as a chill suddenly emanated from his body.
Xia Yinian was frightened and inadvertently stepped backward, bumping into the table behind her.
Gu Beicheng approached her, leaned forward, and cornered her against the table.
"Ling Qian’s careers are all set in Ye City; he’s so busy, do you have the heart to ask him to leave with you for so long?"
"Sorry! This doesn’t seem to be a matter of whether you have the heart. Elder Feng will definitely not let him leave because of you."
"Your Brother Ling cares for you a lot, and he might even turn against the old man for you. However, these are not outcos you wish to see, are they?"
The man’s handso face was zooming closer, and Xia Yinian fell backward.
The man who seed like Shura, she had just thought he was a bit cute!
Xia Yinian didn’t know whether she was too foolish or had just been montarily blind.
"If you’re willing to ask , I’ll take you there, and the reasoning will absolutely be justified."
"Of course, if you don’t want to beg, trying to please will work just as well," Gu Beicheng’s lips slowly pressed down.
"You’ve always known that I can’t resist your temptations."
