Chapter 387 - 387 387 Only a Bit Taller Than Him

387: Chapter 387: Only a Bit Taller Than Him 387: Chapter 387: Only a Bit Taller Than Him It took Gu Huaijin several seconds before he slightly turned his head to look at Gu Zhiqi, “Girl, tell me honestly, what order is your Ancient Martial Arts?”

Listening to Gu Huaijin’s question, Gu Zhiqi paused while wiping sweat with her tissue, silenced for two seconds, then dropped the sentence, “It’s time for a meal, let’s eat.”

Then, she floated away.

Gu Huaijin “…”

“This girl.” Gu Huaijin muttered under his breath as he stepped towards the edge of the training field.

Gu Huaijin walked to the edge of the training field and made his way up the steps to the spectator stand.

Gu Mengyang stood by the railing on the spectator stand, the disdain in his eyes evident as he saw the exhausted state Gu Huaijin was reduced to.

“Old Master Gu, how do you feel?”

“Not bad,” Gu Huaijin said, his tone devoid of emotion.

Seeing him like this, Gu Mengyang felt like exploding his damn head with a hammer, but remembering he couldn’t beat Gu Huaijin, he gave up the thought.

Just then, Gu Zhiqi also said goodbye to those enthusiastic Ancient martial artists and walked up to the spectator stand.

Gu Mengyang moved beside Gu Zhiqi, “Girl, what order is your Ancient Martial Arts?”

Originally, he guessed that the girl’s Ancient Martial Arts might be fifth order.

Gu Huaijin is of the fifth order, but to end up this exhausted against the girl…

This girl must be above fifth order.

Hearing Gu Mengyang’s question, Gu Zhiqi was silent for a moment, and after a few seconds, pointed at Gu Huaijin, saying, “Only a little bit higher than him.”

Gu Mengyang, Gu Huaijin “…”

Do you think I believe that?

A new table was set up in the Gu Family’s living room, covered with various molds and surrounded by ingredients like flour, sugar, date paste, oil, and pine nuts.

By the dining table, Yu Luowan and Yu Shuling were both engrossed in making mooncakes.

Today was the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival holidays, and the day of the festival itself.

The two started early in the morning buying ingredients, planning to make mooncakes at home.

Having returned from shopping, they had been busy for a while.

“Auntie, isn’t today the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Why hasn’t Xingruo come back?” Yu Luowan, while busying herself, thought of Gu Xingruo, whom she hadn’t seen since yesterday, and casually asked Yu Shuling.

When Yu Luowan mentioned Gu Xingruo, Yu Shuling showed a face full of disdain, “He can come back or not, as he likes.”

“Everyone is celebrating Mid-Autumn Festival and eating mooncakes, but he hasn’t even come home.

It’s pitiful.

Should we send him some mooncakes?” Yu Luowan murmured softly.

Though, by the time it’s sent over, the Mid-Autumn Festival would have passed.

At those words, Yu Shuling paused in her actions and slightly furrowed her brows, “He usually comes back for it.

I don’t know why he hasn’t this year.”

Hearing this, Yu Luowan looked slightly puzzled, “Even if there’s a training camp, there should be a Mid-Autumn break, right?

Why didn’t he come home?

Has he not even called?”

Yu Shuling “…”

Could she say that Gu Xingruo was blocked by her, making it impossible for him to call?

Of course, she couldn’t tell Yu Luowan this.

She looked up toward the kitchen direction and raised her voice slightly, “Changchuan, did Gu Xingruo call you?”

“Eh?

Didn’t you ask me to block him last time?” Gu Changchuan, hearing Yu Shuling’s words, quickly appeared at the kitchen doorway, wearing an apron and looking at Yu Shuling with a bewildered and innocent expression.

Yu Luowan “…”

It wasn’t Gu Zhiqi who was picked up by mistake, but Gu Xingruo, right?

“Call him later and ask why he hasn’t come back,” Yu Shuling said to Gu Changchuan, then muttered under her breath, “He might have gotten into trouble again and is afraid to come home.”

“Alright.” Not hearing Yu Shuling’s muttering, Gu Changchuan agreed, then dived back into the kitchen to busy himself.
