Chapter 2068: Hua Yan: Hello, Beauty Master
"Master, is it really you?"
Hua Yan spoke as she stepped towards Gu Zhiqi, affectionately reaching out to hold Gu Zhiqi’s hand, looking her up and down.
Although she called him Master, the way she looked at Gu Zhiqi clearly resembled looking at a junior.
After a while, Hua Yan nodded and said, "It’s been three years, and you’ve become even more good-looking."
After speaking, she reached out, ruffled Gu Zhiqi’s hair, and gently patted it.
Gu Zhiqi: "..."
You get used to it.
After a few seconds of silence, Gu Zhiqi pointed to Qiao Qingshu standing next to her and said to Hua Yan, "Your little apprentice is here too."
Upon hearing this, Hua Yan immediately looked over to the side, "Oh, it really is."
"It’s been so long, and the little apprentice has grown so tall?" she said, reaching out to gently pinch Qiao Qingshu’s face, "Why do you always keep such a serious face? Come, give your master a smile."
Qiao Qingshu: "... Master."
Instead of smiling as Hua Yan suggested, Qiao Qingshu respectfully called her master.
Seeing this, Hua Yan felt bored, lightly pouting, and said, "Sure enough, growing up isn’t as cute as when you were young."
Qiao Qingshu shook her head slightly, not speaking further.
Hua Yan turned her head to look at the others, scanning everyone present, first focusing her gaze on Gu Xiyue, "Another pretty little girl, seems quite talented. Did Master find this little apprentice for me?"
While talking, Hua Yan reached out to pinch Gu Xiyue’s face.
Gu Zhiqi: "Not your apprentice, she’s my Fifth Sister, but she could also be considered my apprentice. Master Uncle or Little Junior Sister, you can pick one to call her. Oh right, her name is Gu Xiyue."
Upon hearing Gu Zhiqi mention she’s her Fifth Sister, Hua Yan’s outstretched hand paused, but when she heard Little Junior Sister, big question marks popped up in her mind.
How could she be both a sister and an apprentice?
This hierarchy...
Forget it, chaotic is just chaotic.
Thinking this, Hua Yan still lightly pinched Gu Xiyue’s cheek, "Little Junior Sister, you can just call me Senior Sister."
Gu Xiyue: "Senior Sister."
"Why do you look so pretty but seem even colder than Xiao Qiao," Hua Yan mumbled as she moved her gaze away, and then it landed on Su Yunling, "Such a beautiful beau..."
Before she finished speaking, she heard Gu Zhiqi say, "My boyfriend."
Hua Yan felt a chill down her spine as she heard this and immediately changed her tone, "Beauty Master." With a somewhat forced smile, she crooked her finger slightly at Su Yunling and greeted, "Hello, Master."
For some reason, she felt this master seemed familiar, but...
Couldn’t remember when she had seen him.
Hua Yan liked all beautiful things, so whether it was people or objects, she naturally held a few fondness and kindness towards them, a very pure form of appreciation, and towards Su Yunling it was the same.
Su Yunling naturally saw she had no intention of offending, and nodded slightly towards Hua Yan.
Hua Yan immediately shifted her gaze away from Su Yunling.
Various thoughts bubbled up in her mind.
Master is just eighteen, right, and already has a boyfriend?
Why do kids these days start dating so early?
She’s already a few hundred years old and still doesn’t have a boyfr...
Okay, she used to have a husband.
As she thought about it, her gaze fell on Mo Weiran, staring at him for several seconds, and asked, "What’s your name?"
"I feel like I’ve seen you somewhere before."
