As they dispersed, Tang Xiu’s eyes then fell on Ouyang Lulu who stood next to Gu Xiaoxue and hadn’t left yet.
At this time, however, Ouyang Lulu actually wasn’t looking at Tang Xiu, instead, she was staring at Gu Yan’er. Her mouth was slightly open, with disbelief in her eyes.
Beautiful! She was beautiful, breathtakingly beautiful!
Be it her makings, looks, or figure, Ouyang Lulu was very confident in her assets. She was even confident of not being inferior to Gu Xiaoxue. However, the woman before her was too stunningly beautiful, seeming to be more beautiful than any women in this world and under the nine heavens. A captivating and enchanting beauty.
“Lulu!”
Gu Xiaoxue gently touched Ouyang Lulu. It made her sober up from her reverie and made her heartbeat thump rapidly.
“Sister Xue, is she your Master?”
With some disbelief, Ouyang Lulu asked. She felt that this breathtakingly beautiful woman in front of her was way too young. Thus, she could hardly believe it. From her mother, this woman called Gu Yan’er was the one who established the Everlasting Feast Hall dozens of years ago.
“Yea!” Gu Xiaoxue nodded.
“How is this possible? The Everlasting Feast Hall’s Boss from dozens of years ago is still so young?” Ouyang Lulu murmured, “This is way too unscientific! Could there be an elixir of life in this world that can make one keep their youth?”
With a smile on her beautiful face, Gu Xiaoxue cupped her fist and said, “Master, she’s my friend and also Grand Master’s friend, Ouyang Lulu. She came for you, Master.”
A friend?
“This child is very beautiful.” With a smile on her face, Gu Yan’er smiled and praised, “You should be from the Ouyang Family, yes? I happened to be busy at the time you were born. When I got the good news of your birth, I gifted your family a Full Moon wine bottle.”
Ouyang Lulu’s heart shook. With a respectful expression on her face, she replied, “Are you really Sister Xue’s Master? But how come you’re Tang Xiu’s disciple? How old are you?”
With tenderness in her eyes, Gu Yan’er turned to Tang Xiu. She then chuckled and said, “Of course I’m his disciple. It’s because the one who brought me up is him.”
“What?”
Ouyang Lulu’s eyes turned saucer, looking terrified and consternated. She looked at Tang Xiu and then shifted her eyes to observe Gu Yan’er again. After the shock dissipated, she suddenly felt that this matter was truly absurd.
_Tang Xiu brought up Gu Yan’er? What kind of joke is this?_
_How old is Tang Xiu now? He should be in his early 20s, right?_
_What about Gu Yan’er?_
_Dozens of years ago her appearance was in her 20s or something. Although she is still in her 20s now, she should be around her 40s or 50s. Yet, a young man in his 20s brought up a person in her 40s or 50s? Isn’t this nonsense?_
Looking at Ouyang Lulu’s ever-changing expression, Tang Xiu could only sigh inwardly. He then turned to Gu Yan’er, shaking his head. After she also shook her head, Tang Xiu’s eyes then landed on Ouyang Lulu as he said, “Lulu, don’t listen to Yan’er’s nonsensical talk, she was just teasing you. Anyhow, tell me, do you have anything to tell me?”
_Nonsense?_
Ouyang Lulu readily believed Tang Xiu’s explanation. Getting depressed and with complicated feelings inside, she replied, “Actually, I don’t have any important matter to talk about. I knew you came to Jingmen Island with my private jet, so I came looking for you to ask when you’ll return it.”
“Oh, I no longer need it.” Tang Xiu said with a smile, “I was in a hurry to arrive at the Everlasting Feast Hall, so I forgot to tell the captain. Anyways, we still have some things to do, so it’s rather inconvenient to chat with you. After I got some free time, I’ll invite you to diner.”
Gu Yan’er pulled Tang Xiu’s arm and nodded to Ouyang Lulu with a smile. The duo then walked toward the winding path that led to the beach.
Ouyang Lulu looked at the duo’s back and watched their closeness and gaped. Only after they had disappeared did she stop gaping, her face turning somewhat unsightly.
She suddenly felt that Tang Xiu and Gu Yan’er didn’t look like Master and disciple, instead, they were akin to a couple. Such a discovery made her feel very vexed.
“Lulu!”
Gu Xiaoxue came to her side and stood by her. She then sighed and said, “I know what you have in mind. Although I don’t know much about love, and neither do I know about the feelings between men and women, but I can tell when I see it. You have a crush on Grand Master, don’t you? However, I don’t think you have much hope, though.”
Ouyang Lulu suddenly turned around with anger in her eyes. She growled quietly, “How come I have no hope? I, Ouyang Lulu, will give everything to the one I fall in love with. No way in hell there’s a man in this world that can escape from my palm. That’s what I believe.”
“Lulu, you and Grand Master are people from different worlds. You’re not suitable for him.” Gu Xiaoxue sighed.
