Chapter 303 - 83 Fu Qiuyi’s Explanation
Old Master Zhang had finished speaking.
Zhang Jingyue immediately nodded demurely, her eyes hiding a cold indifference as she looked at Gu Xiaoxi, obediently saying to the old man, "Yes, Grandpa!"
"Since she’s a comrade-in-arms, Miss Xiaoxi is a guest upon arrival. Why don’t you take her to play in the garden and, by the way, show her some of Grandpa’s collection?" Old Master Zhang said to Gu Xiaoxi with a smile. He obviously seemed quite fond of Gu Xiaoxi.
Incredibly, he even wanted to show his prized collection to Gu Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi smiled politely, turning to look at Zhang Jingyue, her expression briefly turning cool, "Then I shall make myself at home."
Standing up to leave, Quan Shaoqing gripped her hand, concerned, "Don’t wander off. I’ll come find you soon."
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, then turned toward Zhang Jingyue and walked over to her.
Zhang Jingyue’s face was beaming with a smile, but her heart was filled with rage. Speaking to Gu Xiaoxi, her tone was restrained, "Let’s go! I think we have a lot to talk about."
"I think I also have a lot to say to you," said Gu Xiaoxi, clicking her high heels and following behind Zhang Jingyue, turning and heading toward the garden outside. She was not afraid of her, and she was even less afraid of her tricks.
When dealing with an enemy, the most fearsome are those who are two-faced and deceitful. Or, like Old Master Zhang, who clearly dislikes you but pretends to be extremely kind—such people make it impossible to guess when they will unexpectedly show you hostility.
