Chapter 768: 768 Yueyue: Go to F Continent to Learn a Lesson, Do Not Return Without Summoning

“If today, because of you, Gu Zhiqi ends up unhappy, the one who’ll lose their life will be Gu Xiyue.”

“You think you’re standing up for Gu Xiyue by taking matters into your own hands, but in the end, you bring her nothing but trouble.”

Fu Xiyan said, paused, and then looked at Jiang Qi, who had been silenced by his words, and asked, “This isn’t the first time, is it?”

“Do you have any idea how many messes Gu Xiyue has cleaned up for you?”

“Want to take a stand for Gu Xiyue? Fine, but please weigh your own strength first. Do you think Gu Xiyue can’t handle her own affairs and needs someone brainless like you to step in, or do you think there’s no one with a brain by her side, and she needs you to stand up for her?”

Listening to Fu Xiyan’s words, Jiang Qi turned red in the face. “You…” He wanted to curse at Fu Xiyan, but he didn’t know how to respond, so he could only shamelessly retort, “What’s it to you? What’s my relationship with the boss to you? Aren’t you being a bit too nosy?”

Upon hearing this, Fu Xiyan’s lips curled into a smile. “How is it none of my business? Gu Xiyue’s guardian before she returned to the Sea City Gu Family at the age of twelve was me. You’ve caused her trouble, and you say it has nothing to do with me?”

At these words, Jiang Qi was dumbstruck.

Was that so?

How did he not know that?

He glanced at Gu Xiyue, “Boss, this…”

“You’re not under my command, and I have no right to tell you what to do. Since you said today was for me, I’m not in a position to criticize you, but from now on, please don’t meddle in matters between Gu Zhiqi and me.”

“As of today, she is my benefactor, as well as my Little Master. I will not allow anyone to degrade her, including you, as a friend of mine.”

Gu Xiyue’s words had barely settled when the others nearby were stunned.

“Yueyue, what… what Little Master?” Meng Qiyun was completely flabbergasted.

She knew about the benefactor part; it was the young girl called Gu Zhiqi who had just saved her. But what was this about Little Master?

Gu Xiyue didn’t respond to Meng Qiyun but looked at Jiang Qi instead. “If you still consider me a friend, stop causing her trouble from now on.”

Jiang Qi, incredulous, listened to Gu Xiyue’s words, “What if… if I don’t?”

Gu Xiyue: “From now on, if she takes action against you, I will not step in to save you.”

“So between her and me, you’ve chosen her?”

“What’s wrong with you, kid? The young lady just saved Yue Girl. Do you really expect Yue Girl to help you fight her own benefactor, to bite the hand that feeds her?” Elder Mo, unable to watch any longer, felt that the boy might have something wrong with his brain.

Meng Qiyun silently shook her head. Ling Piaomu must be blind to have taken a liking to such a guy.

After being rebuked like that by Mo Canglan, Jiang Qi snapped back to reality. “Boss, I’m sorry. I won’t provoke him anymore. You have my word. From now on, whatever you tell me to do, I’ll do, and whatever you don’t want me to do, I definitely won’t do.”

In his heart, he still disliked Gu Zhiqi, but that wasn’t worth falling out with Gu Xiyue over.

Gu Xiyue had once saved his life, and he had not yet repaid that debt.

Moreover, they had known each other for five years, and like Gu Xiyue said, they were friends. He valued their friendship of five years and didn’t want to end it over Gu Zhiqi.

Listening to Jiang Qi’s words, Gu Xiyue’s expression remained unchanged. “Go to the F continent branch to learn your lesson. Set off tomorrow and don’t return without summons.”

Jiang Qi: ?

“Boss, I…”

Gu Xiyue: “Didn’t you say you’d listen to me?”
