Chapter 319: What on earth did he pick up? After Gu Heng left, he naturally didn't know what happened in Liu Mansion.
He just felt relieved.
Finally, so many things were finally solved. As for himself, it was satisfying, but it was more dangerous and exciting. After all, as a mere mortal, he provoked such a confrontation between top monks, and he had to get involved... If
the system hadn't given Gu Heng twelve courage, he would never do it.
It's easy to lose his life.
But now everything has settled, Yu Quzi is dead, Jiang Lingyun is happy, Liu Yu is not worried about his life, and the system's task has been determined to be completed. So
, Gu Heng has now returned to Bai Mansion, and then found Qin Yiyao who was boredly flipping through the play script inside, and took the little girl to go to the street with her and have a good walk.
He wants to compensate the little girl and can't treat his apprentice badly. He has
neglected her a little these two days.
Gu Heng thought, this is also the reason why Qin Yiyao was in a bad mood yesterday.
After all, the master and the disciple finally left the clinic and came to such a big place to see the world, but after arriving, the little girl stayed either in Yunxiang Tower or in Bai Mansion. As for whether she had seen the world... I'm afraid not.
But Gu Heng also had his own difficulties.
After all, he had been involved in many things these days, and each one was dangerous.
This girl only knew how to play with the sword, and she had no cultivation. When she encountered danger, what else could she do except shout "Master, save me"?
He was worried that she would wander around the city alone.
"I thought Master had forgotten me."
The two of them walked out of the door hand in hand. Qin Yiyao's face was filled with the purest smile of a girl, like the sun, which could illuminate the entire haze. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"No, it's a bit busy, and you can see that there are a lot of things going on in the city of Riyan these two days. Safety comes first."
Gu Heng scratched his head and laughed.
Hearing him say that, Qin Yiyao pouted.
"Oh, so Master is disgusted with me for not being able to protect myself."
"Tsk, you girl, you're talking nonsense again. How could I dislike you? I just don't want you to get hurt."
Gu Heng pretended to be serious and tapped her on the top of her head.
Qin Yiyao's thin lips pouted higher and higher in pain, but thinking that Gu Heng was actually worried about her safety, she would never feel resentful.
In the past, no one had ever cared about her so much.
Now, Qin Yiyao just wanted to feel the things she had never felt before she died.
Before her death, she had already reached the pinnacle of Xuantian Realm, with great power, being both the empress and the strongest, but no matter how powerful she was, there were things she had never felt.
For example, this simplest "care" and "warmth" without any consideration of interests.
This is the treasure that Qin Yiyao has always wanted to find, but could not find.
"..."
Gu Heng silently looked at Qin Yiyao's happy profile alone. There seemed to be a beautiful light on her face that was both immature and mature. Looking at her smile, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips.
She doesn't smile much normally.
Even if she smiles, it is very shallow.
It's not that Qin Yiyao doesn't want to laugh, it seems that when she rarely laughed before, she kept a straight face most of the time, as if to maintain her dignity.
Not to mention, sometimes Gu Heng really felt that when this little girl kept a straight face, she looked a little noble.
But this was actually a feeling that was too mysterious and strange, and Gu Heng didn't know how to describe it.
"Noble" is not something that can be achieved by wearing gorgeous clothes and jewels, but a kind of accumulation that has settled for many years. It cannot be decorated by wearing gold and silver. It comes more from the bones, perhaps blood, or perhaps something else.
Even though Qin Yiyao is wearing a very ordinary light blue dress now, this dress does not seem to highlight her temperament compared to Liu Yu and Bai Feier, but Qin Yiyao still has that "noble" air.
It's strange.
Gu Heng actually never cared about where Qin Yiyao came from.
Because since the first day he picked her up, he has been busy with all kinds of things for the new clinic. With her, Gu Heng simply regarded her as one more mouth to feed.
Now think about it...
Didn't Qin Yiyao have a very beautiful purple gold pendant?
She said that thing was a family heirloom.
But she lived in the south of Yunling City, where there were no rich families. But if it was a family heirloom, it meant that Qin Yiyao must have lived a good life in the past, right?
She also had this kind of nobility. Gu Heng always felt vaguely in his heart that he had picked up a royal bloodline in distress?
He didn't seem to be a person with such luck, right?
"Master."
Qin Yiyao looked up at him: "Is there something on my face?"
Gu Heng was stunned, and quickly restrained his expression, pretending to be indifferent: "Nothing, I just think your skin is very good."
"Hmm..."
The little girl silently withdrew her gaze.
There was a little more smile in her eyes.
