"Gu, Gu Xiao... no, sir, please." Captain Luo stammered as he finished speaking, immediately dragging over Xiao Zhang, "Quickly guide the sir to Heaven Room Number One."
Since they were from the Heavenly Domain Pavilion’s higher ranks, Captain Luo, being the head of the Guard Team, should indeed address Gu Zhiqi as sir.
Xiao Zhang no longer held his previous suspicion and discontent, looking utterly anxious and fearful, "Sir, please follow me."
Upon hearing Captain Luo and Xiao Zhang address him, Gu Zhiqi remained silent for a moment, then nodded slightly at Captain Luo and followed Xiao Zhang to Heaven Room Number One.
When Gu Zhiqi and the others arrived, there were already people in Heaven Room Number One, presumably Tang Yichen and his group.
Gu Zhiqi reached out and knocked on the door.
Soon, the door was opened.
The person who opened the door was Mo Weiran. Seeing Gu Zhiqi, Mo Weiran’s expression brightened, "Miss, you’ve arrived?"
He spoke and glanced at the unfamiliar Xu Yuan, the man in black, and Xiao Zhang, "Who are these three?"
Gu Zhiqi: "I’ll explain inside."
Upon hearing this, Mo Weiran immediately nodded and stepped aside, letting Gu Zhiqi and the others enter.
Gu Zhiqi led Su Yunling inside, followed by the man in black escorting Xu Yuan.
Finally, it was Xiao Zhang’s turn, but he didn’t enter.
Seeing this, Mo Weiran looked at him and said, "Hey? Why aren’t you coming in?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhang promptly replied, "I was just escorting them, so I won’t be going inside."
Mo Weiran: ?
Sir?
He stared at Xiao Zhang, noticed him standing by the door like a primary figure, a hint of confusion crossed Mo Weiran’s eyes, then he shut the door and entered the suite.
Once the suite door was closed, sounds from inside and outside were isolated.
Inside the suite, once Gu Zhiqi and Su Yunling returned, Tang Yichen and his group immediately greeted them.
Gu Zhiqi nodded to the group, then asked, "So, any gains?"
Tang Yichen shrugged, indicating he hadn’t gained anything, and simultaneously answered for Qiao Qingshu, Lu Xingzhe, and Gu Xiyue, "Xiao Lu and I haven’t found much, but Xiao Qiao and Second Sister-in-Law have."
In Tang Yichen’s mouth, ’Second Sister-in-Law’ naturally referred to Gu Xiyue.
Before coming to Nine Stars City, Gu Xiyue had already confirmed her relationship with Fu Xiyan. Before their departure, Fu Xiyan had entrusted Tang Yichen and Su Yunling to look after Gu Xiyue.
Thus, Tang Yichen naturally began calling Gu Xiyue ’Second Sister-in-Law’. As for Su Yunling, he consistently followed Gu Zhiqi’s lead in addressing her as ’Fifth Sister’.
At first, Gu Xiyue found it quite awkward that Tang Yichen and Su Yunling, both older than her, addressed her as ’Second Sister-in-Law’ and ’Fifth Sister’, but after so much time, she got used to it.
Upon hearing Tang Yichen’s reply, Gu Zhiqi raised an eyebrow slightly and glanced at the two, "What treasures did you find?"
Qiao Qingshu took out a pot of flowers and handed it to Gu Zhiqi, "Flowers."
It was a pot of small glowing yellow flowers. Most importantly, these flowers could coexist with Twin Vine, which, when using Twin Vine, can double its healing and poison effects, definitely a valuable item.
Meanwhile, Gu Xiyue also took out an item, a brush, "Seems it’s a Talisman Pen, but I haven’t used it yet."
Seeing this, a hint of curiosity flitted across Gu Zhiqi’s eyes. He walked toward Gu Xiyue, "May I take a look?"
Gu Xiyue handed the pen to Gu Zhiqi.
After receiving the pen, Gu Zhiqi instinctively twirled the pen around his finger once before bowing his head to carefully examine it, "Indeed, it’s a Talisman Pen."
