Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Meeting Again

As the tall figure emerged from the car, both Gu Zhiqi and Yu Luowan could see her clearly.

Gu Zhiqi looked at the woman and found her vaguely familiar but did not recognize her immediately.

"Yueyue!"

Yu Luowan called out excitedly in two syllables, and Gu Zhiqi, too, finally remembered—wasn’t the person before her the female protagonist?

Gu Zhiqi and Gu Xiyue, one about to get in the car and the other getting out, stood facing each other directly, their eyes meeting with a simple lift of their gaze.

Seeing each other’s faces, both paused simultaneously.

As Yu Luowan watched the two, knowing their relationship, she feared they might start fighting and immediately stepped forward, hugging Gu Xiyue’s arm, "Yueyue, you’re here?!"

Following Yu Luowan’s cry, Gu Zhiqi moved slightly to the side, making way for Gu Xiyue.

Just as Gu Zhiqi stepped aside, Gu Xiyue nodded at her.

Gu Zhiqi: ?

Is she greeting me?

The protagonist’s sudden friendliness left Gu Zhiqi stupefied for a fraction of a second.

Then, she too lightly nodded in response to Gu Xiyue.

Yu Luowan was stunned by the side.

After being bewildered for those few seconds, a theory emerged in her mind—was this some kind of pre-duel etiquette?

Thinking so, Yu Luowan tightened her grip on Gu Xiyue’s arm and moved a couple of steps to the side, then watched Gu Zhiqi with a wary face.

Clearly, Yu Luowan’s imagination had run wild. As Gu Xiyue moved aside, Gu Zhiqi quickly slid into the car.

Once Gu Zhiqi was in the car, the vehicle sped away in a cloud of dust.

Only then did Gu Xiyue belatedly realize that Gu Zhiqi had been waiting for her ride.

"Yueyue, you and Gu Zhiqi... you were just greeting her, right?" Yu Luowan, still somewhat confused as the two hadn’t fought, asked.

"Hmm," Gu Xiyue muttered a cold, clear hum.

After suspecting that Gu Zhiqi might be the Fragrance Refiner, she went to probe Moon Beauty for information.

From Moon Beauty’s reaction, it was almost certain that the Fragrance Master who created the Phoenix Sleep Fragrance was Gu Zhiqi.

She had always held such a master in high regard.

Yu Luowan "..."!

"No, but after how Gu Zhiqi previously treated you, you still gave her a friendly face?" Yu Luowan expressed her amazement, looking at Gu Xiyue with surprise.

Yu Luowan was aware of how Gu Zhiqi had framed Gu Xiyue and caused her plenty of trouble.

She had witnessed it firsthand at the recent birthday party.

That day, Gu Zhiqi had sabotaged Gu Xiyue’s gown and also drugged Gu Xiyue’s drink.

Fortunately, Gu Xiyue noticed the drug in her glass and did not fall for the trap; in the end, the juice spiked with the substance ended up being drunk by Gu Zhiqi herself.

It was then that Gu Huaijin lost his temper severely—it seemed he even struck Gu Zhiqi.

The birthday party ended abruptly, and within days, she heard the news that Gu Zhiqi had been thrown out of the house.

Listening to Yu Luowan’s words, Gu Xiyue fell silent for a few seconds before slowly speaking, "It’s different."

When Gu Xiyue said this, her expression was somewhat distant.

Some memories surged forth.

On the day of the birthday party, Gu Zhiqi had slipped a drug into her drink, which she later switched, causing Gu Zhiqi to consume it herself.

That night, her original plan was to use Gu Zhiqi’s own scheme against her.

However, when she took Gu Zhiqi to the room that had been prepared for her by Gu Zhiqi in advance, Gu Huaijin appeared.

After learning what Gu Zhiqi had done, Gu Huaijin became enraged.

In the end, he apologized on behalf of Gu Zhiqi and spoke on her behalf, seeking her forbearance. He also spoke of a three-year agreement and claimed that the Gu Zhiqi from that time wasn’t the real Gu Zhiqi. He said that the real Gu Zhiqi would return after one more year and requested that she not harm that body.
