Chapter 772: 772 Zhizhi Yueyue Alone

Just after finishing her chat with Su Yunling, Gu Zhiqi heard some movement behind her. Turning around, she saw a familiar figure.

“Awake?” Gu Xiyue walked up to Gu Zhiqi and stopped, looking at her and asking.

Gu Zhiqi nodded her head.

Gu Xiyue stood beside Gu Zhiqi and glanced at her sideways, “Thank you for today’s matter.”

Gu Zhiqi raised her eyebrows slightly but didn’t speak.

“About what happened with Jiang Qi, I’m sorry, he caused you trouble again.” Thinking of what Fu Xiyan said, Gu Xiyue apologized to Gu Zhiqi again.

“No need to apologize for him; I already took care of him anyway.” The matter involving Jiang Qi really wasn’t a big deal to Gu Zhiqi.

He had been an annoyance to her, and she had dealt with him; there was nothing worth fussing over.

Upon hearing Gu Zhiqi’s answer, Gu Xiyue didn’t continue on the topic of Jiang Qi but started another conversation with Gu Zhiqi, “Did you teach Moon Beauty… my master the Phoenix Sleep Fragrance?”

Fearing Gu Zhiqi wouldn’t know who Moon Beauty was, she changed it to “master.”

Gu Zhiqi: ?

She looked at Gu Xiyue sideways, “Is that what she told you?”

Weren’t we agreed that no one was to be told about her ability to refine fragrance?

Seeing her reaction, Gu Xiyue, worried Gu Zhiqi would be unhappy with Yue Lan, fell silent and then quickly said, “I guessed it on my own.”

Gu Zhiqi: “How did you guess?”

Was it during the time she traded the MR-7 fragments that she noticed?

That would be unlikely.

“When the master gave me the Phoenix Sleep Fragrance, Gu Chengan saw it and said it was made by you,” Gu Xiyue honestly shared the details with Gu Zhiqi.

Gu Zhiqi: “…”

So it was that damn Gu Chengan.

“Oh, I did teach her.” Since things had already come to this, Gu Zhiqi didn’t deny it any longer.

“Do you know about my master teaching me the technique for refining the Phoenix Sleeping Fragrance?” Gu Xiyue looked at Gu Zhiqi sideways and continued to ask.

She had quite a few questions in her heart and had always wanted to ask Gu Zhiqi face-to-face, but she had never found the opportunity.

Now was the best chance.

“She mentioned it to me,” Gu Zhiqi nodded.

“You should understand the value of the Phoenix Sleep Fragrance. Why then would you teach both my master and me? There’s a saying, ‘Teach the apprentice and starve the master.’ Have you no concerns about that?”

After learning from Yue Lan that Gu Zhiqi liked money, Gu Xiyue had this question in her mind.

If one could master the method of making the Phoenix Sleep Fragrance, just one set could earn at least five hundred million.

Yet she had taught the method unreservedly to both her and her master.

This approach made Gu Xiyue respect her, yet also filled her with curiosity.

Listening to Gu Xiyue’s question, Gu Zhiqi raised her eyebrows slightly, “I’m not making my living by refining the Phoenix Sleep Fragrance, so of course, I have no such concerns.”

Gu Xiyue: “…”

It seemed to make sense.

Gu Xiyue was silent for a few seconds, then asked another question, “So, you would teach anyone who asked to learn the Phoenix Sleep Fragrance?”

“Of course not,” Gu Zhiqi shook her head, “If their talent is too poor, I definitely wouldn’t teach them.”

People like Yue Lan and Gu Xiyue were one in ten thousand prodigies among fragrance refiners. If she simply instructed them a little, they would learn, which is why she taught them without any hesitation.

If someone with terrible talent came along, wouldn’t that just be wasting her time for retirement?

As Gu Xiyue listened to Gu Zhiqi’s response, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly; it was indeed something she would say.

“Since you’ve brought up the matter of teaching my master fragrance refining, let’s negotiate a deal,” suddenly, Gu Zhiqi looked at Gu Xiyue sideway, her lazy and deep eyes tinted with a hint of slyness.

Seeing this, Gu Xiyue felt slightly stunned.

This person was really unbearably cute.

“What is it?”
