Chapter 235: Gu Qing's New Talent

Zhao Chi's feelings were very complicated.

He didn't have much deep affection for this family of his.

He was only grateful for their grace in raising him.

He thought that once he could stand on his own, he would try to repay the family as much as possible.

But today he seemed to have gained a sliver of genuine feeling toward the family.

Especially toward the clan head, Zhao Shizhang.

But thinking about any of it now was useless; the only path forward was to raise his strength.

Zhao Chi cast aside the distracting thoughts and hurried home.

He tidied up the house briefly, then immediately returned to his territory.

It was already dark.

Most people had gone to rest.

Gu Qing and several women were chatting around a fire, but their bodies were covered in quite a few black marks.

On closer look, those black marks turned out to be the leather garments from the succubi.

It's just that those leather garments used very little material, and wearing them would expose large swathes of snow-white skin.

"My lord is back? How did it go? Are you alright?"

Gu Qing stood up with a smile.

"It's alright. Why are they wearing the succubi leather garments?"

Gu Qing laughed and said: "They're already washed clean. How about it, they look pretty good wearing them, right? We don't have enough clothes right now, so having them wear these counts as some covering."

Zhao Chi observed them carefully.

He felt that wearing them was more erotic than not wearing them.

Gu Qing watched Zhao Chi's eyes flicker, so she smiled and said: "Looks like my lord really likes them. Actually, I'm wearing one too. Take a look, how is it?"

Finished speaking, Gu Qing switched her outfit.

The leather armor on her body suddenly vanished, replaced by this kind of leather garment.

It's just that Gu Qing's legs were still wearing stockings.

Combined with her explosive figure, Zhao Chi honestly couldn't take it.

"Come on, back to the room with me!"

Zhao Chi beckoned.

"Huh?" Gu Qing's flirtatious smile turned to surprise.

She checked Zhao Chi's affection toward her again — it was still at the "Heart Flutter" level.

Gu Qing asked gently: "My lord, have you really thought it through? If you really can't hold back, I can go along with it, but I'd still hope you can be sincere with me, not just playing around."

"What nonsense? I'm going to help you change your talent."

"Change my talent? That's fine!"

Gu Qing's eyes lit up.

She quickly grabbed Zhao Chi and headed straight for the lord's residence.

"Hey hey, don't rush…"

Gu Qing laughed: "I'm not rushing, my lord is just too slow."

Entering the lord's residence, Gu Qing slammed the door shut.

Then she was about to undress.

Zhao Chi quickly grabbed her hand: "What are you doing?"

"Isn't my lord going to help me change my talent?"

"Right, changing your talent — what does undressing have to do with it?"

"Huh? Not undress? My lord, didn't you mean for me to pay the price like this?"

"…" Zhao Chi's mind went blank for two seconds.

But he finally understood what Gu Qing was thinking.

"You just said my being smitten with you wasn't enough, you wanted me to have deeper feelings for you, and only then would you be willing to… with me. But why do I feel like your standards aren't that strict after all?"

Gu Qing covered her mouth and laughed: "Aiya, that's paying the price, it doesn't need to come from the heart. That one is feelings, it needs to be full of feeling. The two are different, you know."

"What??"

Zhao Chi couldn't figure it out.

The next moment, he understood.

Gu Qing's way of thinking was very dangerous.

He had to straighten her out.

"Gu Qing, if in the future I take you out, and you see something you really want, but it's very expensive and you can't afford it, what would you do?"

"Have my lord buy it for me."

"I'm not by your side."

"Then I'll wait for my lord, and when you come back, buy it for me."

"I can't afford it either."

"Then… threaten the seller? Make him lower the price?"

"Uh… he won't lower the price."

Gu Qing thought for a moment: "Then there's nothing to be done. We can't just slaughter the seller, can we? I don't mind, but it might affect you, my lord?"
