Chapter 636 - The People of the Shadow School (1/2)
The next day, when he wakes up, Gao Ge is told by Yue Xincheng that Xia Lu is going back home.
Looking at Gao Ge’s calm face, Yue Xincheng realizes that Gao Ge has known it before.
“Boss, are you really okay that she is going back alone?” Yue Xincheng sits by Gao Ge’s bed and says.
While putting on the clothes, Gao Ge says, “Not really. I’ve let the fox spirit follow her back.”
“Much better.” Yue Xincheng grins. “How do you feel? Are you feeling a sense of loss?”
Gao Ge looks at him in confusion.
Yue Xincheng heaves a sigh. “It seems that you haven’t felt that way but I’m not surprised at all. It’s like a man who has just broken up with his girlfriend. He may be excited at first, believing that he has finally got away with a troublesome woman but soon, he will feel dejected with a sense of loss.”
Gao Ge has no idea what to say.
He doesn’t understand Yue Xincheng’s mindset at all.
“Alas. Boss, what do you think Yue Tuzhi wants to do?” Yue Xincheng suddenly changes the subject.
Gao Ge asks in confusion, “What has he done again?”
Yue Xincheng’s look becomes slightly complex. “Nothing much, except that he has talked to Qingrou and asked her when she would marry me.”
Gao Ge laughs, “If it is about other things, I will dig at him without thinking much regardless. However, on this matter, I think you can ponder over it. After all, it is not a bad thing. You are old enough to get married now.”
“Old enough?” Yue Xincheng gets so stupefied. “Boss, I’m not even legitimately old enough to get a marriage license!”
“In the early times, people all got married early. Given your age, you are sort of an old bachelor in the village,” Gao Ge says seriously.
“…”
Having dressed up and washed up, Gao Ge has some breakfast.
Shao Shuai is a bit curious about not seeing Xia Lu. After asking, he knows the reason and instantly feels surprised.
“You just let go of such a good girl?”
Gao Ge doesn’t respond to him.
“Alas, but I can understand too. If I were her, I couldn’t insist then. Meng Jing is finally not with you and she can manage to spend day and night with you. However, you two can’t hit it off anyway,” Shao Shuai says with a sigh.
Gao Ge pulls a long face. “Are you too idle? If you are, go back to the Shao Family then.”
“I am idle indeed. If I’m not, I won’t stay here…” Shao Shuai mumbles.
When they are having breakfast, a servant of the Yue Family suddenly trods inside in a hurry.
“Second Young Master, someone wants to meet Mr. Gao.”
“Who?” Yue Xincheng asks. “Is it a man or a woman?”
“Three men.”
“Three men?” Yue Xincheng looks at Gao Ge.
Gao Ge shakes his head. “I don’t know either.”
“Let them wait then,” Yue Xincheng says.
“Yes, sir!”
Gao Ge continues eating and also feels confused too.
Who would come to Jiangnan City for him specially now?
Are they the people of the Poison Sect?
The servant of the Yue Family walks to the entrance.
It is a young man followed by two middle-aged men who are standing at the door.
“What? Why hasn’t Gao Ge showed himself?” The young man looks behind the servant and asks.
“Mr. Gao asks you to wait outside.”
