Chapter 160: First meeting Huang Rong

"You're welcome; I'm just glad Miss Guo is alright."

Gu Hanyuan still had that gentle smile; anyone who saw it would develop a good impression.

There were two people who didn't have a good impression.

That was the Big and Small Wu, who had just climbed up from the ground in a sorry state.

They had spent many years with Guo Fu and had only seen her willful and headstrong side.

This coquettish appearance, while charming, was being displayed for someone else.

The two felt a surge of jealousy in their hearts, and the hostility in their eyes when looking at Gu Hanyuan was as intense as it could be.

Gu Hanyuan didn't put these two in his eyes at all; they were just pushovers.

Besides, without these two, how could his excellence be highlighted?

For example, although the Big and Small Wu were fawning and asking after her, Guo Fu was full of disgust.

When they were together before, she didn't feel there was any problem, but now, in comparison, it was unbearable to look at.

Guo Fu impatiently brushed the two off and turned to ask Gu Hanyuan with a coquettish smile:

"Brother Gu, did you just arrive in Xiangyang?"

"Yes, I heard there is a strange snake called the Bodhisattva Snake in the suburbs of Xiangyang, which is why I came. Unfortunately, I've been asking for a long time and have gained nothing."

Gu Hanyuan looked helpless; he thought Guo Fu, as a local snake, would definitely have some ways.

Sure enough, after pondering for a while, Guo Fu said:

"Brother Gu, I seem to have heard the name Bodhisattva Snake somewhere. Although I can't remember clearly, Uncle Lu must know something. I'll go find him and ask."

Uncle Lu was Lu Youjiao; although the Beggar Sect leader in Xiangyang was Huang Rong, the person who specifically managed the Beggar Sect's affairs was Lu Youjiao.

The Beggar Sect in this world was widely distributed but not unified.

For example, the Ming country was divided into North and South Beggar Sects.

The North Beggar Sect leader was Ren Ci. The South Beggar Sect leader was Shi Huolong.

The Song country's Beggar Sect was also divided into North and South Beggar Sects, also known as the Xiangyang Beggar Sect.

The North Beggar Sect leader was Qiao Feng, and the Xiangyang Beggar Sect leader was Huang Rong.

Although the Beggar Sects in various places were not unified, they were still considered to be of the same branch, and they had some exchanges on weekdays.

"That's truly great, thank you, Miss Guo. Indeed, Miss Guo is very gentle and kind."

Gu Hanyuan took every opportunity to praise her.

Sure enough, it made Guo Fu blush with shyness.

"I'm not that good. Brother Gu can just call me Fu'er."

Guo Fu felt that Gu Hanyuan always calling her Miss Guo was too distant, so she wanted him to call her more intimately.

"Fu'er."

Gu Hanyuan followed her lead and called her name earnestly.

Guo Fu felt Gu Hanyuan's voice was full of magnetism, as if peach blossoms were drifting around her in an instant, and the blush on her face spread to her ears.

She was so shy she wanted to cover her face.

The Big and Small Wu watching from the side were not happy; after all, the name "Fu'er" had always been their exclusive right, and now someone suddenly appeared who was more handsome, had higher martial arts, spoke better, and had snatched away their exclusive name; the jealousy in their hearts was about to explode.

"Fu'er, Uncle Lu is busy with official business; I'm afraid he won't have time to deal with such a small matter."

"That's right, Fu'er, let's go back early. We've been out for a long time today."

Gu Hanyuan looked speechlessly at these two, who were like elementary school students fighting over a cookie.

Thinking of the later stages of 'The Return of the Condor Heroes', how blind must Wanyan Ping and Yelu Yan have been to marry these two?

Guo Fu looked at the two brothers who had interrupted her peach-colored fantasy with disgust.

"Go and call Uncle Lu to my house!"

She turned to ask Gu Hanyuan shyly:

"Brother Gu, do you have time to sit at my house? Let's wait for them to call Uncle Lu to my house, and then ask him about the Bodhisattva Snake."

"Since Fu'er invites me, how could I refuse?"

Gu Hanyuan laughed lightly.

Wu Dunru looked troubled.

"Fu'er, you want us to go call Uncle Lu?"

"Can one person go?"

Wu Xiuwen thought a bit more, feeling he couldn't let Gu Hanyuan and Guo Fu be alone.

"Go quickly! Both of you together!"

Guo Fu's willow brows stood up as she shouted angrily at the two.

Scolded by Guo Fu, the two instantly wilted and left the restaurant dejectedly.

Once the two left, Guo Fu turned to look at Gu Hanyuan and said coyly:

"Brother Gu, I'm actually very gentle."

"Fu'er, no need to explain, I understand."

Gu Hanyuan smiled and gently stroked the hair on Guo Fu's head.

Guo Fu was a bit stunned by Gu Hanyuan's action; except for her parents and grandfather, this was the first time someone had been so intimate with her.

She didn't have a single thought of anger, only feeling more and more shy.

After Gu Hanyuan put his hand down, Guo Fu remembered the serious business, raised a brilliant smile, and pulled Gu Hanyuan's wrist.

"Brother Gu, come home with me."

Guo Fu barely maintained some reserve, only pulling his wrist, not directly holding his palm.

After the two left, the restaurant became noisy again.

Not to mention the gossip between Gu Hanyuan and Guo Fu, he had been able to easily repel the Whiteboard Evil Star, who had been famous for decades, while holding Guo Fu, showing that his strength was definitely not that of a bottom-tier Grandmaster who had just broken through.

Moreover, Gu Hanyuan was so young; he would definitely be a hero famous throughout the world in the future.

Gu Hanyuan didn't care what the people in the restaurant thought; what just happened would definitely spread quickly, and his reputation would rise again.

Every time he introduced himself, he had to bring up being a Wudang disciple, which was quite annoying.

Gu Hanyuan followed Guo Fu to the Guo residence and was taken directly to the backyard.

Guo Fu was truly big-hearted; bringing a male guest to the backyard was actually a very improper thing to do.

The two chatted in the garden in the backyard.

Of course, mostly Guo Fu was asking, and Gu Hanyuan was answering.

From his experiences to his martial arts, she asked about everything like a census taker.

Of course, how much truth and how much falsehood there was in Gu Hanyuan's answers was hard to say.

Not long after, Gu Hanyuan heard a silver bell-like laugh, bright and crisp, clear and delicate, lingering and turning, making one's heart shake and soul intoxicated involuntarily.

"Fu'er, have you found your intended?"

Gu Hanyuan looked in the direction of the sound, his eyes revealing amazement.

He saw a person whose appearance was peerless and unbearable to look at, beautiful and unparalleled, graceful and charming; she wore an ordinary bright yellow long dress, yet she wore it as if it were a fairy-like dress with wide sleeves, floating like an immortal.
