Chapter 244: Related To The Gu Family?

Chapter 244: Chapter 244: Related To The Gu Family?

Liang Bao nodded her head and said,

"It is quite possible."

"Hm. I think so too." Gu Jin nodded. Her gut feelings were telling that Gu Aihan had a hand in all of these matters.

"Wait! What did you all say? No...whose name did you take?" Fei Hanzhu felt as if his ears were ringing.

Were they talking about Gu Aihan, Long Yifan’s fiance?

"You know her?" Lu Siyao asked with confusion. "Ah! No wait! I remember now. Isn’t Gu Aihan something like a goddess in the capital city, right?

You have reacted so strongly and your hometown is the capital. Let me guess...you like her too, right?"

There was a hint of anxiety hidden in her words, which Fei Hanzhu didn’t hear, but Liang Bao and Gu Jin did.

They both exchanged looks and couldn’t help but feel worried for Lu Siyao.

Fei Hanzhu snapped out of his daze and said with a look of disdain,

"Hmph! Why would I like my best friend’s fiance?" Especially when I know about her rotten personality?

Even if he fell in love...he would fall for someone like Lu Siyao

A slight blush crept to his cheeks because of his thoughts but, Lu Siyao misunderstood it and her heart turned cold.

It was as if someone had poured cold water on her.

If he doesn’t like Gu Aihan...why did he show such expression?

She gritted her teeth and consoled herself.

It’s alright! If he can’t like you back, just give up! Save yourself some self-esteem! That was what Gu Jin had taught her.

In the past 3 years, Gu Jin rarely contacted Fei Hanzhu and hence she didn’t know much about him.

Gu Jin clenched her fist when she heard Fei Hanzhu’s words.

Best friend?

Was he Long Yifan’s best friend?

A slight bitterness and pain appeared in Gu Jin’s heart but she quickly suppressed it.

She repeatedly told herself.

Don’t look at the path you don’t plan to take.

With these thoughts, Gu Jin calmly said,

"Even if you know her it doesn’t change the fact that we will not take our revenge."

Fei Hanzhu sighed.

He wanted to tell them that even if they killed Gu Aihan, he wouldn’t feel sad.

How can he bring himself to like a woman like her?

However he suppressed those thoughts and changed the subjects,

"Why is she targeting you?" Fei Hanzhu asked curiously.

Liang Bao told him the entire truth about what they had suffered till now and how Gu Aihan had tried her best to keep Gu Jin away from the capital.

Suddenly a photo flashed in Fei Hanzhu’s mind and his eyes widened.

He turned to look at Gu Jin and the picture in his mind seemed to have overlapped.

"No way!" Fei Hanzhu shouted.

Liang Bao patted her heart and asked,

"What happened? Why are you shouting?"

Fei Hanzhu shook her head and started to go through all the details of Gu Jin.

Orphan: check.

Surname Gu: check.

Talent and looked very similar to one of the members of the Gu family: check!

He hesitated before deciding to tell them,

"I have a strange feeling...maybe...maybe...Gu Jin is related to the Gu family of the Capital."

"How can you be sure?" Gu Jin asked. She did not agree right away and neither declined.

Fei Hanzhu instead of answering asked Lu Siyao to give him a piece of Gu Jin’s hair and said,

"I won’t tell you for now. Just give me one day!"

With that, he turned to leave. Suddenly he stopped and asked,

"Why are you not happy knowing it?"

Gu Jin shrugged her shoulders,

"It doesn’t matter whether I am or I am not a member of the Gu Family."

At most, she might be an illegitimate child or a child of a distant Gu family’s relatives.

At worst, they might not be related to them at all.

She can never be the daughter of the Gu family. For once she did fantasize about being a member of the Gu Family just so she could ask Long Yifan to marry her.

But as she grew up, she gave up on that thought.

First, she couldn’t be a daughter of the Gu family. Second, even if she was an illegitimate daughter or a distant cousin she could never snatch someone else’s lover.

And third...Long Yifan loves Gu Aihan...she doesn’t want him to be sad...

Fei Hanzhu paused and suddenly said,

"Or maybe the truth is very different. Anyways I will leave for now."

Gu Jin nodded and said to Liang Bao,

"Don’t worry I have already called the principal and asked my subordinates to reduce the impact. You just need to make a video showcasing your advanced rank power and everything will be fine."

Liang Bao relaxed a little and nodded

Once Lu Siyao and Liang Bao left, Gu Jin stared at the sky for a few seconds before turning towards the bed.

Tonight she decided to take a break and not cultivate.

Suddenly she remembered about the gloves and took them out.

"Space do these gloves have passive skills of protecting their master from psychic attacks?"

The space responded in a cheerful voice,

"No master. Honestly, the gloves are not even activated."

"What?" Gu Jin was surprised.

Any artifact if not activated at the start doesn’t turn on its passive or active skills.

So the fact that the gloves could protect her from psychic attack even though it wasn’t even activated made Gu Jin shocked.

"Yes, master. To activate it, you have to wear it more frequently."

"Hm? I just have to wear it more?" Gu Jin asked in confusion.

"Yes."

"How long will it take to be activated?" Gu Jin asked with some curiosity.

"Maybe a month or so." The space replied.

"Okay." Gu Jin agreed and wore them.

She was curious about the active and passive skills of such an amazing artifact.

"Master, how are you going to deal with the Master Rank Core matter?" The space asked worriedly.

Gu Jin chuckled,

"Have you realized your mistake now?"

If the space had a body, it would have shaken its head.

"No master. I just got to know that you have a debt of 18 billion. What if you don’t have enough money in the end and force me to pay the debt." The space explained.

Gu Jin’s mouth twitched.

Why was everything so troublesome in her life?

"I have dealt with it."

During the investigation, she took Liang Bao and Lu Siyao to one side and told them that she would compensate them with money for using the Master Rank core.

However, her besties declined and waived it directly.

According to them, a Master Rank core doesn’t matter. If it was useful to her(Gu Jin), she(Gu Jin) could take it.

They were truly the best person in her life.

Gu Jin sighed and asked,

"By the way how is the plantation of psychomindris and Skeleton plant going on?"

"Master if nothing goes wrong you can harvest the first batch tomorrow." The space replied.

"Can I truly increase the cultivation of my necromancy element as long as I consume the Skeleton plant?" Gu Jin asked with doubt.

"Yes, master." The space is confirmed.

In the past few days, Gu Jin tried to cultivate the necromancy element but to her dismay, even after cultivating it for a long time, she got no result.

The space then told her that just like how Psychic Mage has to consume psychomindris plant to increase their cultivation otherwise, they won’t be able to cultivate it fastly, Necromancers too have to consume Skeleton plants.

"Fine. Pluck some Skeleton plant tomorrow, I will cultivate my necromancy element."

"Master, have you decided what you will do in the future?" The space asked.

Other than suggesting that she should consume the Skeleton plant, the space also asked her to find a negative energy-filled area like the undead’s hideout or tomb or the cemetery.

Only in those places could Gu Jin’s necromancy element be cultivated.

"Future... let’s see." Gu Jin muttered.

"Master think carefully. I suggest that you should focus more on this necromancy element. Once cultivated, you can gain an army of your own." The space advised.

Gu Jin didn’t answer.

She can’t possibly that she doesn’t have any plan to cultivate that element at all, right?

God knows how angry the space would be if it knew the truth.

No kidding...though that necromancy element makes look very strong...it has too many disadvantages and she couldn’t bring herself to like it no matter what.

Gu Jin laid back on the bed and closed her eyes

Maybe she was exhausted from all the work in the past few days, but within a few seconds, she fell asleep.

............

Ding Dong.

The sharp ringing of the alarm clock, made Gu Jin’s heart pound and when she woke up, she found herself in a completely different environment.
