Chapter 600: Chapter 600: Beatdown; Back to the Villa

As soon as Gu Zhiqi had spoken, Qiu Yangzi didn’t move any further.

He wasn’t foolish, aware that he couldn’t defeat Gu Zhiqi, and wouldn’t rush to send himself to his death.

So, under Gu Zhiqi’s watchful eye, Qiu Yangzi flung his sleeve and snorted coldly, "Just you wait, I will surely avenge my brother."

Then, he tread on qinggong and skimmed past the treetops by the roadside, flying away directly.

Gu Zhiqi had hoped for a great battle with him, but upon watching his fading silhouette, she fell silent for two seconds.

After two seconds, she leaped up to pursue him.

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

From the forest beside the road, came a considerable disturbance, with continuous screams and pained grunts rising up, startling a flock of birds into flight.

Two minutes later, Gu Zhiqi dusted off hands that were not even dusty, returning to the road.

Being troubled by that old fellow and having to sleep an hour late, Gu Zhiqi felt exceedingly irritated.

However, after giving that old fellow a good thrashing, her irritation was dispersed.

Back in the car, Gu Zhiqi woke the driver.

The driver had a moment of amnesia, but swiftly his memory returned, panic shading his eyes as he looked left and right, and after spotting Gu Zhiqi sitting in the back seat, the driver let out a sigh of relief.

But then, thinking of something, the driver glanced at Gu Zhiqi with trepidation and asked, "Miss, what... just happened?"

"You were too tired and said you wanted to rest for an hour, told me to call you when the time was up," Gu Zhiqi lied smoothly.

Driver: ?

That hardly sounded plausible, did it?

But just now...

Could it have been just a dream?

The driver was dubious but chose to believe it on the face of it, "I apologize for delaying your time."

Then, he started the car nervously, occasionally glancing at Gu Zhiqi in the rearview mirror as he drove, afraid that the young lady in the back seat might suddenly vanish into thin air.

That’s right, the driver suspected that the passenger he picked up might not be human.

Not long after the car had left, an elderly man with a bruised and swollen face emerged from the forest by the road.

Looking at the deserted highway, Qiu Yangzi was burning with rage, his eyes filled with anger and murderous intent.

"Gu, Zhiqi," Qiu Yangzi muttered her name through clenched teeth, pausing between each syllable, and after finishing, he resumed his threats, "You just wait for me."

By the time Gu Zhiqi got back to Gu Mengyang’s villa, it was already one-thirty in the morning.

Upon entering the living room, she spotted Gu Mengyang sitting on the couch.

Gu Mengyang had a laptop on his knees, his fingers gently tapping the keyboard.

After a few keystrokes, he picked up his phone from the side and glanced at it.

Gu Zhiqi walked into the living room just as Gu Mengyang was looking at his phone.

At the sound of movement at the door, Gu Mengyang immediately turned his head to look in that direction, and seeing Gu Zhiqi return, he let out a sigh of relief, stood up, and took a few steps towards her to thoroughly check her well-being. Seeing her unharmed, he relaxed a bit but then asked with irritation, "Where have you been so late at night? Didn’t you say you’d be back in two and a half hours?"

Gu Zhiqi: "At the time I texted you, I indeed was on my way back."

Gu Mengyang: "..."

After a few silent seconds, Gu Mengyang looked at Gu Zhiqi indignantly and asked, "Where did you go?"

"Shopping," replied Gu Zhiqi, her expression tired and listless.

Gu Mengyang looked at Gu Zhiqi with suspicion and asked, "You didn’t run into any trouble, did you?"

Gu Zhiqi shook her head.

Gu Mengyang, half-believing, saw the increasingly weary look in Gu Zhiqi’s eyes and didn’t press further, just said, "It’s late, go and sleep now."
