Chapter 841: Your Reactions Are Half A Beat Slower
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After walking for a mile, Lan Waihu could not help but ask, “Xijiu, do you think Celestial Master Zuo likes Le Zixing? They seem to get along quite well recently.”
Gu Xijiu was thinking of it too, but she did not answer Lan Waihu.
After Gu Xijiu rested for a month, her injuries finally healed. She had a physique that enabled her to not have any scars despite how badly she as injured. Her skin was still smooth as silk, and Lan Waihu certainly felt envious about it.
After Gu Xijiu recovered, they knew they had to practice again. She was still on the same team with Lan Waihu and Qian Lingyu. Today was the first time they would practice since her injury.
Perhaps it had been a while since the last practice, and Gu Xijiu could not keep up with the pace. There were a few times when she forgot to instruct Lan Waihu or gave the wrong order. Lan Waihu was hurt by Qian Lingyu several times due to her mistakes.
Qian Lingyu was surprised and he looked at Gu Xijiu, “Xijiu, are you alright? Your reactions are half a beat slower than before.”
Lan Waihu interrupted again, “Of course she will be slower than before. She has not practiced with us for a month. It will take time for her to readapt to us.”
Qian Lingyu was stunned. It has only been one month since the last practice, how could she be so slow compared to before? Was it because of the injury? Before he could ask, Long Siye arrived, “Xijiu…” He was here to invite Gu Xijiu out for dinner. As the Mid-Autumn festival was approaching in eight days, he wanted to discuss with her on how to celebrate it.
Qian Lingyu did not like Overlord Long very much. In fact, he did not like all the guys who chased after Gu Xijiu. Therefore, when he saw Long Siye, he displayed discontent on his face. In contrast, Lan Waihu was quite discreet. When she saw Long Siye, she quickly pulled Qian Lingyu away.
However, before they went too far away, Gu Xijiu shouted, “Overlord Long wants to buy us dinner, do you all want to go together?”
Lan Waihu was about to reject, but Qian Lingyu already answered, “Yes, we want to go! I am hungry now! Let’s go together!”
Long Siye’s initial plan of having some private time with Gu Xijiu failed.
Because the Mid-Autumn festival was significant to them, the teachers in Tianju Hall were very considerate. They allowed the students to go out to have dinner and gatherings. Of course, they were limited to only the small town under the hill.
Long Siye sensed that Gu Xijiu had been treating him coldly recently. There were a few times when he came and invited her out to take a walk but got rejected by her. Gu Xijiu always claimed to be busy with homework. He never got to hang out with her alone!
Although it was normal for her to be busy with homework, Long Siye thought that regardless of how busy she was, she should have some spare time to spend with him. He suspected that she was still blaming him for what happened the other day. It could be something else too, and that would be worse. This made him felt even more threatened!
His feelings of discomfort made him want to discuss with her about their future. He never expected that she would invite Qian Lingyu and Lan Waihu to go along!
Four of them went to the city’s most famous restaurant – Xian Kelai. Unfortunately, the lounge on the second floor had been fully booked. The boss of the restaurant knew Long Siye because he was the one who booked the entire second floor during the Chinese Valentine’s Day, and he was also very famous in this continent.
