Gu Chengfeng discovered that he had lost track of Wang Xu and immediately rushed towards the Imperial Advisorʼs Hall with all his might.

He pushed his qinggong to the limit, and the wind whipped around him so fiercely that he could hardly open his eyes.

However, he still couldnʼt catch up to Wang Xu. The reason was simple: this was the inner city of Shengdu, Wang Xuʼs territory.

Gu Chengfeng usually stayed in the remote Tianxiang Pavilion in the outer city, and even when he came to the inner city, it was only to visit Xiao Heng and Little Jing Kong, so he wasnʼt familiar enough with the inner city to outpace Wang Xuʼs shortcuts.

Moreover, to avoid drawing attention while eavesdropping on Wang Xu, Gu Chengfeng had changed into a womanʼs dress, which was now slowing him down.

He grabbed the hem of the dress with both hands, spread his legs wide, and ran forward as fast as he could, his gait awkward and clumsy!

All the passers-by stared at him in disbelief, their jaws nearly dropping.

Finally, Gu Chengfeng arrived at the Imperial Advisorʼs Hall, but he couldnʼt enter openly and had to scale the wall instead.

After sprinting all the way there, he was already panting like a dog.

”I just... I just need to... catch my breath...”

Damn it.

What a mess!

He was totally exhausted!

Once Gu Chengfeng had recovered his breath, he went around to the side wall of the Imperial Advisorʼs Hall and jumped up——

But he remained in place.

He tried to jump again.

Still in the same spot.

——He was completely drained.

Gu Chengfeng had no choice but to resort to the most primitive method——climbing the wall with his limbs.

He grunted and struggled as he climbed to the top, only to come crashing down with a loud thud from the high wall.

This was, without a doubt, the most humiliating mission he had ever been on.

When Gu Chengfeng arrived at the yard outside the sickroom in Qilin Hall, with his messy hair and disheveled clothes, he looked like someone who had just been thoroughly mistreated.

He was completely unaware of his appearance as he approached the window. Just as he was about to lift his skirt to climb over, he caught sight of Gu Changqing inside the room.

Gu Changqing was sitting at the Eight Immortals table, with most of his face turned towards the window. His handsome, jade-like face was dusted with flour. On the table were dough, flour, and other ingredients, and he was intensely focused on rolling out the dough with a rolling pin.

Gu Chengfeng stared at him for several moments before realizing it was his own elder brother.

He was momentarily stunned.

What was going on?

Why was his elder brother here?

Though he knew his elder brother had come to the State of Yan, it wasnʼt to Shengdu——

Besides, how could his elder brother be sitting here quietly rolling out dough?

And the way he was rolling it… it was terrible; the noodles were uneven in thickness and varying in length. What he was rolling out weren’t noodles but rather lumps of dough!

Compared to his brotherʼs unexpected appearance, Gu Chengfeng was even more shocked by the sight of his elder brother rolling dough.

This was something his elder brother would never do in a million years, even more improbable than him being reborn as a woman.

Gu Chengfengʼs mouth twitched in disbelief, and he began to suspect he was dreaming. He pinched his thigh hard, the pain almost sending him to the ground.

Nope, not a dream.

This was truly his elder brother.

His elder brother had come to find him, and his elder brother was even rolling out dough for him.

Moved to tears, Gu Chengfeng gazed at his elder brother, who was clumsily rolling dough, and excitedly opened his mouth: ”Elder bro—”

Bang!

The rolling pin came flying at him——

Gu Chengfeng took a solid hit to the head and collapsed flat on the ground in a perfect spread-eagle.

The rolling pin had already returned to Gu Changqing’s hand.

”I said not to make any noise.” Gu Changqing said as he caught the returning rolling pin and continued rolling the dough.

Gu Chengfeng stared up at the blue sky and white clouds, muttering to himself in a lifeless tone, just loud enough for only himself to hear, “Elder brother, I’m your little brother FengFeng…”

……

Xiao Heng had just been summoned by the Emperor. He knew Gu Changqing was here, and it was precisely because Gu Changqing was keeping watch that he felt safe enough to go out.

Upon returning to the sickroom, he first noticed an unconscious older disciple of the Imperial Advisorʼs Hall at the door, and when he closed the window, he found a dazed commoner girl in the courtyard...

”Looks like itʼs Gu Chengfeng.”

Xiao Heng recognized him.

Gu Changqing paused his rolling.

Xiao Heng wondered, ”Huh? Why is he unconscious?”

Gu Changqing, suddenly feeling a bit stiff: ”...”

Gu Chengfeng was eventually dragged into the room by Gu Changqing.

Gu Changqing pinched the pressure point between Gu Chengfeng’s nose and upper lip.

When his little sister was asleep, no one was allowed to make noise.

When his little brother was asleep, he cruelly pinched him awake.

Gu Chengfeng slowly regained consciousness while slumped in a chair, unaware that there was now a clear imprint of a rolling pin running down his entire face, making his left and right cheeks sharply distinct.

As soon as he saw his elder brother standing before him like a mountain, his nose suddenly felt sour.

He felt so wronged—he had just reunited with his elder brother, and the first thing his elder brother did was hit him.

Gu Changqing looked down at him, expressionless, and said in a flat tone, ”Have you been slacking off in your martial arts training lately? Why can’t you take a single blow?”

Gu Chengfeng froze for a moment, raising his head to gaze at his elder brotherʼs serious face.

So his elder brother hadn’t failed to recognize him, nor was he hitting him; he was simply testing his martial arts skills—his brother had been thinking about his progress all along!

He had misunderstood his elder brother!

”Elder brother!”

Gu Changqing said sternly, ”From now on, you will practice martial arts for half an hour every morning.”

”Yes! Elder brother!”

Gu Changqing turned away, quietly letting out a sigh of relief.

......

Gu Jiao woke up at dusk, feeling completely refreshed. She had slept incredibly well, and her energy was fully restored.

As she sat up and stretched, she immediately noticed three things.

First, Gu Changqing was here.

Second, there was a strong smell of noodles in the room.

Third——

Gu Jiao looked curiously at Gu Chengfeng, who was sitting next to Gu Changqing, ”Huh? Why do you look like a pigʼs head?”

Gu Chengfeng quickly waved his hand and pointed somewhere, ”That one is the pigʼs head! Not me!”

Gu Jiao followed the direction of Gu Chengfeng’s pointing finger and saw a man tied up tightly and unconscious, sitting on the ground by the wall.

Judging by the extent of his bruised and swollen face, this man had clearly gotten the worse end of it.

This was because Wang Xu had shouted louder, and Gu Changqing had hit harder.

”Who is he?” Gu Jiao asked.

”Wang Xu.” Xiao Heng replied.

”First, eat some noodles, and Iʼll explain everything to you.” Gu Changqing said to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao responded with an ”Oh,” and then got up to sit next to Gu Changqing.

Using the noodles to get his little sister to sit beside him was quite a clever move.

Gu Jiao glanced at Gu Changqing next to her, then looked at Xiao Heng and Gu Chengfeng across from her, ”You’re all here; where’s Jing Kong?”

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, ”Scared?”

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, ”The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?”

Shi Dai replied, ”Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, ”Donʼt abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, ”Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah.”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasnʼt finished his lines yet though…
