494: Chapter 494: Whose voice is that beside you?

Su Yunling had just sent a message to Yun Sen when she heard Gu Zhiqi’s voice coming through the phone.

Alcohol?

Su Yunling’s grip on her phone tightened, as she looked up at Gu Zhiqi.

So, is it because of the alcohol that you’re like this?

However, this didn’t quite seem like drunkenness.

“Who the hell let you drink?!” Lu Xingzhe cursed coldly before hastily continuing, “Where are you?

Or what’s around you?”

“Xiao Hua and…” Gu Zhiqi started, glanced at Su Yunling, “a very nice-sounding uncle.”

Su Yunling “…”

Tang Yichen “…”

“Pfft.” The term ‘uncle’ from Gu Zhiqi immediately made Tang Yichen unable to hold back a laugh, “Third Brother, you’ve been promoted to an elder.”

Su Yunling ignored him.

Lu Xingzhe also fell silent on his side, but as soon as he heard Tang Yichen’s voice, he immediately spoke up, full of wariness, “Whose voice is that beside you?”

“Xiao Hua’s.” Gu Zhiqi looked at Tang Yichen and replied.

It was Tang Yichen who had spoken just now.

Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s answer, Su Yunling raised an eyebrow and glanced indifferently at Tang Yichen.

Tang Yichen’s mouth twitched, already immune to the name Xiao Hua.

Ignoring Su Yunling’s gaze as if nothing was the matter, he stepped behind Gu Zhiqi, “Gu Xiaoxi is here with us, at the leisure area on the second floor of the Yaoying Hotel.”

Though Tang Yichen hadn’t looked at the details, from the sounds of it he seemed quite familiar with Gu Xiaoxi, so he disclosed the location to the other party.

As soon as Tang Yichen spoke up, there was a brief pause on the other side, then a very wary voice asked, “Who are you?”

“A friend of Gu Xiaoxi.” Tang Yichen didn’t care whether the other side was wary or not and simply replied.

No sooner had Tang Yichen spoken than the person on the other end simply said, “Don’t hang up the phone, I’m coming right over.”

Gu Zhiqi: ???

“You’re ordering me around?” His voice was chilly, clearly displeased.

Lu Xingzhe paused for a moment, coughed lightly, and awkwardly said, “Taoist Master Yunzhi, please don’t hang up, I’ll come to find you right away.”

After listening, Gu Zhiqi no longer spoke, simply placing the phone on the table.

Then, he looked up at Su Yunling, “Did you just say you wanted to have a chat?”

Su Yunling lightly raised her eyebrows, her peach-blossom eyes gently curving, as she nodded at Gu Zhiqi, “We should have a talk, but not right now.”

Gu Zhiqi: ?

His eyes questioned, looking at Su Yunling.

“Wait for someone; we can talk later.” Without knowing the child’s specific situation, it was definitely not the time for discussion.

Having heard this, Gu Zhiqi nodded and then sat silently on the sofa.

He sat for a few seconds before looking down at his empty hands and furrowing his brows almost imperceptibly, then turned towards Su Yunling, “Have you seen my horsetail whisk?”

Su Yunling: ?

The horsetail whisk?

“I’ve seen it!

Just stay there, don’t go anywhere, I know where your horsetail whisk is!” Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s question, Lu Xingzhe immediately responded on the phone.

Gu Zhiqi listened, and softly said, “Oh.”

And then he sat quietly, indeed not moving at all.

Seeing how obedient Gu Zhiqi was, a hint of discomfort arose in Su Yunling’s heart.

She looked down, casting an indifferent glance at the phone on the table, feeling annoyed by the person on the other end of the call.

Withdrawing her gaze, she leaned back on the sofa, eyes slightly lowered, staring at her left hand with the ring.

The child had tried really hard to pull off the ring, causing the skin nearby to redden.

She lifted her hand and covered the ring with her right thumb, gently rubbing it, and gradually, the focus in her eyes seemed to fade.
