Chapter 120: The Unfortunate Plight of Gu Yunqi
“Don’t just say it…” Jiang Che looked at Gu Yunqi and said.
“Of course not, I am a woman who keeps her promises~ When have I ever lied to you~”
“Did he come to your Gu family to look at Feng Shui?” Jiang Che asked calmly, knowing from the original plot that Yang Wei had changed the Feng Shui of the Gu family, bringing them prosperity and also changing Gu Yunqi’s opinion of him for the first time.
“I don’t know about that…” Gu Yunqi shook her head, unaware that Yang Wei had knowledge in this area.
“To prevent him from tampering with the Feng Shui of your family’s ancestral tomb, let’s go and have a look later.”
“Do you understand these things?” Gu Yunqi scrutinized Jiang Che, looking doubtful as if she had just met him.
“Just a little… but it’s enough to deal with a half-baked practitioner like him.” Jiang Che humbly admitted for once.
Although Yang Wei had some knowledge in Feng Shui and Miaojiang, compared to his master, Cangmang Zhenren, he was far inferior. Jiang Che was confident in handling him.
“You are becoming more and more mysterious and fascinating…” Gu Yunqi gazed at Jiang Che dreamily, becoming more infatuated with him.
“What are you fascinated by?” Jiang Che raised an eyebrow, teasingly looking at Gu Yunqi.
“Shameless, you really are shameless!” Gu Yunqi blushed and punched Jiang Che lightly on the chest, clearly understanding the implications in his words.
“Sister, where shall we go this weekend?” While they were flirting, Gu Yunxi came in unexpectedly, surprised to see Jiang Che. “Brother, when did you arrive?”
Seeing her younger sister enter, Gu Yunqi immediately stepped away from Jiang Che, feeling the need to maintain her image as an elder sister.
“I just arrived not long ago.” Jiang Che smiled, his gaze unintentionally falling on Gu Yunqi’s slender legs wrapped in white silk…
“Brother, did you come to play with me?” Gu Yunxi’s eyes lit up, looking expectantly at Jiang Che. He was her only male friend and her lifesaver.
“Correct, I came to take you and your sister out.” Jiang Che took the opportunity to steer the conversation, knowing the younger sister would believe him.
“Yay, yay~ So where are we going? To Disneyland or the amusement park?”
“Play? What play, you’re about to take the college entrance exam. Study now, play after the exams,” Gu Yunqi scolded her sister.
She knew Jiang Che was not here to take them out to play. If she hadn’t opened the door just now, she might have been bullied by Jiang Che again…
“Hmph, why are you so fierce, sister? Study also needs to be balanced with rest, right, brother?”
“Exactly, studying continuously is not necessarily effective. Balancing work and rest maximizes efficiency.” Jiang Che agreed.
………….
“Miss, the master and others are going to the ancestral tomb for a ritual, and the master asked me to inform you to come along,” a maid interrupted Gu Yunqi before she could say more.
“I know, we’ll go down now.” Gu Yunqi replied, somewhat surprised, and glanced at Jiang Che. As he guessed, Yang Wei really planned to change the Feng Shui of their family’s ancestral tomb.
“Let’s go down. After the ritual, Jiang Che will take you out.”
“Okay~” Gu Yunxi nodded a bit sadly but didn’t say much, knowing the importance of the situation.
“Young master Jiang, we are going to the ancestral tomb for a ritual. Would you like to join us?” Gu Dezheng asked Jiang Che with some curiosity.
“If Uncle Gu doesn’t mind, I’d like to accompany you,” replied Jiang Che.
“Of course, I have no objections. Please feel free to join us,” Gu Dezheng responded with a smile. It was just a Feng Shui ritual, nothing secretive; if Jiang Che wanted to observe, he was welcome.
Watching the intimate interaction between Gu Yunqi and Jiang Che, Yang Wei clenched his fists tightly, biting his teeth in suppressed fury!
How dare this rascal flirt with his fiancée right in front of him? He decided to get back at Jiang Che after the Feng Shui consultation!
Yang Wei took a deep breath and got into the bodyguard’s car to avoid acting on his urge to fight. Gu Dezheng and Gu Yunxi got into an old-fashioned car, and Jiang Che took Gu Yunqi in his Lamborghini…
The convoy traveled grandly towards the Gu family’s ancestral home.
…………
“What are you doing! Focus on your driving!” Gu Yunqi, her face flushed, scolded Jiang Che.
Unperturbed, Jiang Che began to show off his driving skills to Gu Yunqi. At a traffic light, he made a sudden brake, feeling a moment of suffocation.
When he looked up, Gu Yunqi was gazing at him seductively, her forehead sweating, and her hair slightly disheveled. Jiang Che smiled to himself, and as the light turned green, he floored the accelerator, and the Lamborghini zoomed away.
…………
An hour later, the cars stopped in front of an old mansion in the western suburbs. Gu Yunqi quickly got out, escaping Jiang Che’s clutches. Breathing fresh air, she sighed in relief, the blush on her face fading.
“How do you feel?” Jiang Che stepped out of the car, teasingly asking Gu Yunqi.
“Hmph!” Gu Yunqi snorted and turned away, clearly still annoyed by Jiang Che’s earlier actions.
“Sister, why is your face so red? Are you catching a cold?” Gu Yunxi approached her sister, concerned about her unusually flushed face.
“It’s nothing, just irritated by someone’s behavior,” Gu Yunqi glanced at Jiang Che and said tersely.
Yang Wei and Gu Dezheng also got out of the car, observing the old mansion. Yang Wei frowned slightly, sensing something unusual about the mansion but couldn’t pinpoint what it was.
“Our family’s ancestral tomb is behind the mansion; let’s go inside,” said Gu Dezheng solemnly.
“Let’s go,” said Jiang Che to Gu Yunqi with a cheeky grin. “Feeling better now, aren’t you?”
“Indeed, I feel much better, thanks to your help, Young master Jiang,” Gu Yunqi glared at him. This guy really knew how to push his limits!
“Don’t mention it. As your male BFF, this is my duty…”
