158: Chapter 158 Why Does He Call You Master?

Listening to the sound, it was a WeChat voice call notification.

Gu Zhiqi’s WeChat contacts were few, and besides Su Luo who constantly harassed her, anyone else seeking her out usually meant serious business.

After considering, Gu Zhiqi chose to answer the call.

Seeing this, Yun Sen’s face was immediately filled with resentment, his eyes dark and mournful as he glared at Gu Zhiqi’s phone, wishing he could burn holes through it with his gaze.

Why did it have to ring at this time?

Gu Zhiqi looked at the caller ID marked as ‘Y’ voice call and fell silent.

Her contacts usually had notes attached to them, so seeing one without a note, she momentarily didn’t recognize who it was.

After staring for a few seconds, she belatedly recalled that someone contacted her the day before for a fortune-telling session, and they had arranged to meet today; that person’s online nickname seemed to be Y.

As soon as the call connected, the voice on the other end spoke, “Master, I’ve already arrived at Yueqi Village, could you tell me where to find you?”

Gu Zhiqi: ?

Gu Zhiqi glanced at the time; it was seven in the morning It’s at least a six-hour journey from Yan City to Yueqi Village.

This guy…

did he set off from Yan City at one in the morning?

“Wait.”

“Holy shit!

A woman?!”

As soon as Gu Zhiqi spoke on her end, Y on the other side cursed out loud.

Gu Zhiqi ignored Y, ended the call, and glanced sideways at Yun Sen, “I’m off to meet someone, you practice on your own.”

Having said that, without waiting for Yun Sen to respond, she headed straight for the kitchen, not forgetting to remind Y to share his location as she walked.

Yun Sen: ?!!

Who the hell is calling?!

Seeing Gu Zhiqi leaving, Gu Yuluo immediately followed, “Who is that, and why did they call you master?”

While Gu Zhiqi was on the phone, she didn’t make an effort to avoid Gu Yuluo and the others, and Gu Yuluo heard the other party’s voice clearly.

It was a man, sounding young, and she had also heard him address Gu Zhiqi as master.

So, when did she become a master again?

Ancient Martial Arts Master?

Master of Medicine?

Gu Zhiqi didn’t respond, but continued walking on her own.

“Little girl, how can you not reply?” Gu Yuluo muttered softly and continued to follow, tagging along all the way to the edge of the village.

At the entrance of Yueqi Village stood a bridge leading to the highway on one side, while on this side there was a large banyan tree.

The tree was lush with spreading branches, forming a large shade below where several stone tables and benches were placed.

On any normal evening, there would always be villagers here enjoying the coolness.

But now, in the morning, there wasn’t a single soul under the tree.

Gu Zhiqi sauntered over to the banyan tree, her phone indicating that Y should be right there under it, but as she looked left and right, she failed to see anyone.

About to make a voice call, she suddenly noticed a green blur falling from the tree from the corner of her eye.

From this angle, it seemed likely to hit her, and instinctively, Gu Zhiqi lifted her foot and delivered a kick to the figure.

“Ouch!”

The green lump was kicked two meters away by Gu Zhiqi, then it heavily fell to the ground and rolled a couple of times.

Gu Zhiqi focused her gaze on the green lump and after several seconds, realized it was a young man wearing a green raincoat with combat power…

Rather weak, threat neutralized.

The young man in the green raincoat, lying on the ground, raised his head and looked pleadingly at Gu Zhiqi with a very resentful gaze.

Before he could even open his mouth, Gu Yuluo grabbed him.

“Ow~ that hurts, that really hurts…” the young man kept crying out in pain.

Gu Yuluo pressed her knee into the young man’s back, pinning him to the ground, “Who are you, scaring people so early in the morning?”
