Chapter 144 - 144 144 How Did She Not Become Miss Gu's Stepmother

144: Chapter 144: How Did She Not Become Miss Gu’s Stepmother 144: Chapter 144: How Did She Not Become Miss Gu’s Stepmother “Oh, I’m not the one in charge of this household,” Gu Zhiqi replied with nonchalance.

“Huh?”

Miss Gu is so formidable, yet she’s not the one in charge?

“Then…

who is in charge?” Yun Sen said, and then it dawned on him.

He remembered that Gu Zhiqi had asked Tang Yun to use the backyard earlier, “Got it.”

Yun Sen said this and immediately stopped walking.

Yun Sen did not follow any further, but Gu Yuluo continued to follow Gu Zhiqi.

“Little girl, you can perform Alchemy too?

You never told me,” Gu Yuluo said, walking beside Gu Zhiqi with a hint of reproach in her tone.

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi glanced sideways at her with curiosity, “It seems you’re not surprised that I can perform Alchemy?”

From the original host’s memories, she couldn’t find any fragments that indicated the original host knew Ancient Martial Arts, Ancient Medicine, or Alchemy, but Gu Yuluo, upon learning all this, didn’t seem too surprised.

Instead, she took it as a given?

“Why would I be surprised?” Gu Yuluo responded with a question as she looked at Gu Zhiqi.

Gu Yuluo was aware that the little girl was very skilled in medicine, especially Ancient Medicine.

It was not unusual for an Ancient Medicine practitioner to be adept at Alchemy.

Gu Zhiqi “…”

After remaining silent for a moment, knowing she wouldn’t get anything more out of her, she didn’t bother to reply and continued walking towards the house.

“What kind of pills are you refining?” Gu Yuluo caught up with Gu Zhiqi and persisted.

“Oh, dung balls rolled by a dung beetle.”

Gu Yuluo “…”

This…

She’s really holding a grudge, isn’t she?

**

After Yun Sen stopped, he turned around to look for Tang Yun.

He took a few large strides and stood firmly in front of Tang Yun, his expression showing more respect than before, “Miss Yun Tung, I was wondering if your family has any spare rooms that could accommodate Yun Yan and me for a few days?”

Yun Yan “…” ???

Why include me if you’re staying?

Tang Yun was slightly taken aback by his words.

She was somewhat flattered by Yun Sen’s sudden show of respect and after a few seconds, she figured out what was going on.

She smiled gently and nodded at Yun Sen, “Certainly, we only have one guest room left, though, so you and Mr.

Yun Yan may need to squeeze in.”

“No problem, absolutely no problem,” Yun Sen readily agreed and even patted Yun Yan on the shoulder, “Right, Yun Yan?”

Yun Yan “…” No, I have a problem.

“Then please follow me,” Since both Yun Sen and Yun Yan had made the request, Tang Yun naturally wouldn’t refuse.

Not to mention their special identities, Yun Yan had just helped with dealing with a body the night before last.

Although it was in consideration for Gu Zhiqi, in the end, Tang Yun was the beneficiary, so of course, she would not refuse.

Upon hearing this, Yun Sen’s eyes brightened up immediately, and he, with an arm hooked around Yun Yan’s shoulder, followed Tang Yun.

Yun Yan kept a straight face, letting Yun Sen hook his arm around his shoulder, and walked forward expressionlessly.

Once Tang Yun had finished arranging the room, she left.

Only Yun Sen and Yun Yan remained in the room.

While taking out his phone, Yun Sen didn’t forget to express his admiration, “Miss Yun Tung has such good fortune.

Although she didn’t become the head of the Imperial Capital Yun Family, she became Miss Gu’s aunt.”

“How come I didn’t marry Miss Gu’s dad and become her stepmother?”

Yun Yan: “Oh, wrong gender.”

“Ah, you think if I change my gender now, it’ll be in time?”

Yun Yan “…”

Yun Yan was holding his phone, having no desire to deal with Yun Sen, and was about to call Su Yunling when he saw Yun Sen also making a call, so he asked, “Calling grandpa?”

“Of course, we have to inform grandpa about our temporary stay here,” Yun Sen replied.

Seeing this, Yun Yan gave up the idea of calling Su Yunling.

It wasn’t long before Yun Sen’s call was answered.
