Chapter 224: Chapter 224 The Death of Gu Bo

Gu Zhiqi felt an extra pull at the hem of her clothes and stopped.

Turning slightly, she saw Shen Tong stubbornly clutching her hem.

Gu Zhiqi didn’t speak, merely fixing her lazy gaze on Shen Tong.

Seeing this, a flicker of fear crossed the depths of Shen Tong’s eyes, but she still eagerly spoke up, "I’m scared, don’t, don’t leave me behind."

Gu Zhiqi "..."

Regretted not having knocked the person out and carried her back.

After staring at Shen Tong for a few seconds, a few seconds later, she turned to look at Wei Jingyu, "She can share a room with me tonight, later, send me the details about the two of you, and your past, the more detailed the better."

Wei Jingyu: ?

Gu Zhiqi also didn’t give Wei Jingyu a chance to speak, walking towards the room’s entrance.

Shen Tong clung to her clothes, following every step she took.

Just as Gu Zhiqi had swiped open the door and was about to lead Shen Tong inside, another person appeared at the door, "Little junior sister, let’s talk..."

"No talk, sleep."

"Bang!"

Tang Shuan hadn’t finished speaking when she was interrupted, and immediately after, the door in front of her closed.

Tang Shuan "..."

**

Since she had only gone to sleep around six in the morning, Gu Zhiqi didn’t wake up until noon the next day.

Upon awakening, she saw Shen Tong, disheveled and in patient attire, sitting beside the bed. Gu Zhiqi fell silent.

For a moment, she thought she was seeing a spirit.

Once her memory came back to her, Gu Zhiqi then remembered who the other person was.

"What?" Gu Zhiqi yawned and asked lazily as she looked at Shen Tong.

"Little Fairy, I still don’t know your name," Shen Tong sat on the edge of the bed, looking eagerly at Gu Zhiqi.

Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi raised her eyebrows, a lazy yet somewhat wicked air spread across her face, "You want to know my name?"

Shen Tong blinked gently, nodding softly.

Seeing this, a hint of teasing flashed in Gu Zhiqi’s eyes. Looking at Shen Tong, she spoke indifferently, "Just call me Master Zhi."

Shen Tong heard this, paused slightly, but obediently called out, "Master Zhi."

Hearing Shen Tong’s tender voice calling her Master Zhi, Gu Zhiqi curved her lips, "Good, you have potential."

Chubby Chiu "..."

Zhizhi is just outright crazy.

Seeing Gu Zhiqi smiling softly, Shen Tong also smiled along, her eyes curving too.

Remembering what she said to Wei Jingyu last night, Gu Zhiqi slid off the bed to the side, casually picked up her phone from the bedside.

Originally, she wanted to check the messages from Wei Jingyu, but seeing the dozen calls from Tang Yun, Gu Zhiqi could guess the purpose of Tang Yun’s calls. Still, she returned a call to Tang Yun.

The ring didn’t last long before the call was answered.

"Xiao Qi, it’s me, Aunt Tang." Tang Yun’s voice sounded subdued.

"Aunt Tang, what’s the matter?"

Hearing the low tone in Tang Yun’s voice, Gu Zhiqi didn’t worry too much.

The reason she could guess—it was probably that Gu Bo had died.

"Xiao Qi, your father, he passed away last night, will you... come back?" Tang Yun’s voice held a tentative and careful touch.

Gu Zhiqi heard this, with not a flicker of emotion in her eyes.

"No need."

When she said this, her always languid and cold voice seemed even more chilly and indifferent than usual.

Tang Yun could obviously hear it, and sighed deeply, "It’s just as well you don’t come."

"Mhm." Gu Zhiqi just hummed indifferently.

After Gu Zhiqi hummed, there was silence between them.

After a long while, Tang Yun hesitantly spoke up again, "Xiao Qi, your elder brother said, you’re about to start school, he wants you to come back early."

Gu Zhiqi heard this, somewhat surprised.

Hadn’t the original owner been driven out of the house? Why were they still concerned about whether she went to school or not?
