C199 Maybe I Look Better

The entrance of the mansion was not a good place to talk. The few of them entered the mansion and walked towards the main hall.

There was no need for instructions, Xiao San who was behind Qu Ling, automatically went to brew tea and offered it up one by one.

Xiao San's tea making skills were not as good as Xiao Yi's, it could only be considered as entering his mouth.

After tasting it, Godly Doctor Gu frowned. He could not help but shake his beard and scold Xiao San: "After so many years, your tea making skills have still not improved at all. "In my opinion, don't be a swordsman just because you're free to learn the art of making tea with Xiao Yi."

Xiao San didn't say that he was now sent to protect his mistress, and didn't even have the time to wave his blade around. He only said: "I will remember what Godly Doctor Gu has said."

When did this general's subordinate allow you to teach him a lesson?" Xiao Jingyue hated the fact that the godly doctor Gu Shenwei didn't bring back any news about her in the following six months. She couldn't care less about the presence of Mu Rong Qing and the porcelain, so she started to speak harshly.

Being scolded by his disciple, Godly Doctor Gu knew that he was in the wrong. Carrying Murong Qing and Qu Ci's gloating gazes, he fearlessly raised his head and finished the cup of tea in one gulp. Finally, he smacked his lips and said to Xiao San: "Good tea, good tea!"

Xiao San, "..."

The three Dark Guard s retreated and stood guard outside the main hall.

Qu Ling hadn't seen Qu Ci for a long time, he missed her, so he took a chair and sat next to Qu Ci, hugging her arms and asked: "When did you come back? Why didn't you write and tell me in advance?"

"Tell you what?" Qu Ci asked. Ignoring his granddaughter's resentful gaze, he pulled his arm out of her bosom and took off the bag he carried with him. From the bag, he took out a small box and threw it towards Xiao Jingyue.

Xiao Jingyue accepted the box, and without opening it, he cupped his hands and bowed to Qu Ci: Thank you.

"The Desert Dust." Murong Qing also threw him a small box, and then fished out a fan out of nowhere, opening it, he started fanning himself in the spring when the cold air had not completely faded, he laughed: "No need to thank me, it's just an apology for the trouble I brought you for Shan'er."

Before he came to Qi Jing, he received the thousand character letter that Xiao Jingyue had ordered people to deliver.

The letter did not state why the General Xiao would complain about it, but Murong Qing was so angry that he wanted to throw the Sand Taurus out right now, telling the person to hurry up and die.

After calming down, he found out from his brother about his sister's actions at Tong Huai Palace, that Murong Qing was unable to get angry again.

Xiao Jingyue put away the two boxes, and said indifferently: "You're thinking too much, this general has never thought of thanking you."

Murong Qing was angered to the point of laughing, he said to Qu Ling: "Your husband holds a grudge, what he likes the most is settling debts after autumn, you have to be careful."

Qu Ling said with a stern face: "Young Noble Murong is too serious, it depends on the person."

Which time had he angered Xiao Jingyue to the point where he would say that he would take care of her later?

Murong Qing choked, her hand that was holding onto her fan suddenly stopped, as she creased her pretty face and said with a sad face: "You and Ah Yan are good friends, I thought we could be friends too."

Qu Ling also did not eat his words, and remembered that Murong Qing had once written an ambiguous letter to Xiao Jingyue, so he snorted lightly: "Don't forget that you are also Murong Shan's elder brother."

This time, Murong Qing was completely speechless, and rubbed his nose in embarrassment.

After a short period of silence, other than the Godly Doctor Gu himself, everyone in the main hall looked towards the Godly Doctor Gu.

Godly Doctor Gu stroked his beard and asked innocently: What are you all looking at me for?

Xiao Jingyue also did not say anything, and only extended his hand out towards him.

If he didn't bring back anything useful after disappearing for half a year, then don't blame him for cheating on your teacher and exterminating your ancestors.

"Why are you reaching out your hand to me?" Godly Doctor Gu was still playing dumb.

Qu Ci said impatiently: "Quickly hand over the items, after we're done talking, everyone can go back and rest."

After travelling for so many days and finally returning to her granddaughter's side, all she wanted now was to eat something and take a shower.

He did not know why, but Godly Doctor Gu seemed to be afraid of Qu Ci. Upon hearing her speak, his beard shook, and he stopped talking.

After rummaging through his messy clothes for a while, he took out a rectangular box and threw it to Xiao Jingyue, "Ruo Mu Ye."

"Adept, why are you here today?" After receiving the news, Chen Linye walked in with a face full of smiles, ignoring Godly Doctor Gu's glare towards him, his gaze fell straight on Qu Ci, and stopped for a moment, before asking: "Are you Madame Qu?"

Qu Ci's expression remained indifferent, "Qu Ci."

"I've heard a lot about you." The smile on Chen Linye's face became even gentler. "I am Chen Linye, Jing Yue's subordinate and friend."

Xiao Jingyue shot a glance at him and did not refute him like he did with the Godly Doctor Gu, nor did he allow them to continue with their formalities. He said indifferently, "I already have the Big Chun Chu in my hands.

As the person who had helped Xiao Jingyue search for a way to dispel the poison for many years, Godly Doctor Gu felt it the most as he repeatedly sighed: "It's not easy, it's really not easy."

"I can't do anything to support the branches, but you guys can decide for yourselves. In the evening, I will come back to check on the Gu Worm in your body." Qu Ci put down his teacup and stood up, then lowered his head to ask his granddaughter, who was sitting beside him, "Have someone boil a bath for me, then take me to rest."

Qu Ling glanced at Xiao Jingyue, saw him nod his head, pulled Qu Ci's arm, and led her out of the main hall.

The rest of the Xiao Jingyue and Chen Linye, Godly Doctor Gu and Murong Qing, the four of them were old acquaintances of each other, and all relaxed.

Chen Linye arrogantly sat on the chair and asked: "According to the guards, the three of you came together?"

Godly Doctor Gu was the first to explain: "I met Qu Ci in Shu and learned about the matter of finding the divine medicine from her. At that time, Qu Ci had already obtained the Nuwa Stone, and the two of us initially wanted to return to the capital. However, we unintentionally found out about the news regarding Ruo Mu, so we went on a trip.

Murong Qing's explanation was even simpler: "I bumped into the two of them at the city gate."

Xiao Jingyue suddenly looked towards Godly Doctor Gu.

Without waiting for him to speak, Chen Linye asked on his behalf: "Godly Doctor Gu and Madame Qu are acquainted?"

Godly Doctor Gu noticed Xiao Jingyue's measuring gaze and said with a smile. "We met many years ago, and are not familiar with each other."

"It's only been so long since we met, and Madame Qu has already told you about this without reservation. It seems like the Godly Doctor Gu is deeply ingrained in Madame Qu's eyes." Murong Qing calmly asked the second question for Xiao Jingyue.

The three of them had known each other for many years and had a very good understanding of each other. They would understand each other's intentions with just a glance.

Adding on to the fact that Chen Linye and Murong Qing were talkative people, most of the time, they didn't have the right for Xiao Jingyue to speak.

Xiao Jingyue calmly lifted his teacup and drank his tea, allowing the two to question his master.

Godly Doctor Gu's face changed again and again. After a long while, he forced out a smile and said dryly: Maybe I look more pleasing.

Chen Linye, Murong Qing: "..."

Xiao Jingyue put down his teacup and walked out. Without turning his head, he said, "I will tell Madame Qu the truth about this."

Godly Doctor Gu: "..."

Chen Linye and Murong Qing looked at each other and laughed in schadenfreude.

"Arrange a place to stay for Godly Doctor Gu and Young Master Murong."

Just as he was about to leave, Chen Linye's low voice came from behind.

"Madame Qu will come to explore your Gu Worm at night. If she knows that you've consumed your wife's heart blood, she can temporarily suppress your Gu Worm …"

Chen Linye did not finish his sentence, but he had already succeeded in making Xiao Jingyue's face darken.

Godly Doctor Gu looked at his precious disciple with sympathy, "Qu Ci this woman is extremely protective, you better be mentally prepared."

Xiao Jingyue, "..."
