Zhao JianGui watched the head maid’s figure running away, feeling completely baffled inside.
Guardian Hua had come out some unknown time ago and was currently standing behind him, laughing. She said: “Zhao-daxiao, are you aware the words you said just now completely sounded like you’re saying you only fell in love with the Sect Leader because you were forced and had no other choice.”
Zhao JianGui: “That’s not what I meant……”
Guardian Hua: “And now that you’ve learned from your mistake, naturally you have no interest in the Sect Leader anymore.”
Zhao JianGui: “.......”
This…… this was really quite the misunderstanding.
Guardian Hua didn’t say anymore. She only invited him into the room to personally apply a silver needle skill to change his current appearance.
She meticulously put on gloves made of deerskin to separate her hands and the medicine. Zhao JianGui couldn’t help but ask in curiosity: “Guardian Hua, what are you doing here?”
“Masks made of human skin require meticulous care and protection. Wearing it is also uncomfortable. You need to do work wearing this face everyday so it’s really too inconvenient.” Guardian Hua said: “If I insert silver needles into your acupoint and then employ the assistance of a medicinal leech, I can also change your facial features. This changed face will still look somewhat similar to your regular features.”
She smeared crushed liquid medicine on Zhao JianGui’s face and then said: “You just need to come find me every three days to change needles.”
Zhao JianGui closed his mouth tightly, not daring to speak. The smell of that medicinal herb was pungent and hard to smell. He was afraid that strange liquid would flow into his mouth. He allowed Guardian Hua to mess around on his face for a long time. Finally hearing Guardian Hua saying everything was done, he opened his eyes and immediately saw Guardian Huo throwing away those deerskin gloves, while mumbling at the same time: “That medicinal herb is really so disgusting. If someone accidentally touched some, it wouldn’t even be washed off after a year.”
Next to her hand was a bronze mirror. Zhao JianGui grabbed the mirror over to take a look. The image of himself in the mirror was completely different than usual.
Before he had a heroic face with sharp brows. Now, he seemed much more gentle. Although there were still some resemblance, plenty of other people looked similar. He felt this shouldn’t be a hindrance.
……
Heading the same way, Guardian Hua brought him back to see Li Han. Midway, she couldn’t help but ask him about his current relationship with Li Han: “Zhao-daxia, right now, do you and the Sect Leader count as good friends, or……”
Perhaps she was afraid that asking presumptuously would cause Zhao JianGui to become unhappy, therefore, she didn’t say the latter part of the sentence out loud. However, doing this actually made Zhao JianGui feel even more awkward. Honestly speaking, he also couldn’t figure out his current situation with Li Han. During the mid-autumn festival, when he and Li Han were on the roof of the demonic sect, Li Han really did initiate a kiss with him. At that time, he thought Li Han had fallen in love for real just like he did. However, after that Li Han sealed his acupoints and escorted him into the prison. That kiss looked more like a lure to trick him onto the fishing hook.
Later on, Li Han released him and allowed him to leave the mountain. Then he specifically rushed over from afar to attend their promised duel. It can be said that they had mutual affections, but it also seemed like something really good friends would do. He already couldn’t discern clearly if Li Han treated him as a good friend or a beloved.
Zhao JianGui couldn’t help but sigh.
What a terrible mess.
Now that Xiao-Lin was no longer here, he didn’t even have someone to consult.
As they conversed, he and Guardian Hua walked outside of Li Han’s residence.
Guardian Hua said: “Zhao-daxia, you should come up with a new name for yourself. Perhaps you can go ask the Sect Leader for his opinion.”
She walked into Li Han’s courtyard a few steps and was just about to have the head maid send word. Unexpectedly, Li Han and three other people just happened to walk out.
Amongst the three people, one was Wei Qi. Seeing Zhao JianGui’s current disguise, he didn’t feel very surprised. The other two were both demon sect elders. One person was surnamed Sun. The other was surnamed Yu. Both were seniors within the demonic
Li Han didn’t have any plans to move them at all. Being bothered by this all day, however, was really extremely annoying. He finally found an excuse to bid farewell and make these two people leave. He just walked them out the door when he saw Guardian Huo leading Zhao JianGui over.
Wei Qi already told him ahead of time that Zhao JianGui went to find Guardian Hua for a disguise. Therefore, Li Han wasn’t particularly surprised. However, Elder Sun and Elder Yu clearly weren’t the same.
Elder Sun looked at Zhao JianGui and started questioning first.
Elder Sun: “Guardian Hua, this one is……”
Guardian Hua replied with a smile: “This is the Sect Leader’s newly chosen, personal attendant.”
Elder Yu’s face was covered in a smile: “The Sect Leader’s new personal attendant? What’s your name?”
Stunned, Zhao JianGui thought up a random name and said: “I…… my surname is Jin!”
Elder Yu’s question was unexpected. The first thing that appeared in Zhao JianGui’s mind was his good friend, Jin BeiGuo. Therefore, he blurted out the other’s surname. He really didn’t think of it too much. However, this random nonsense clearly evoked a certain memory in Li Han. Li Han gave Zhao JianGui a rather strange look, but because there were many people present, he ultimately didn’t say anything.
Meanwhile, Elder Sun looked like he instantly understood something and started seeing Zhao JianGui in a completely different light.
Li Han opened his mouth and said: “If you two Elders have nothing else……” 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m
Elder Sun immediately said: “No no, Sect Leader, please rest well. We’ll leave first.”
Li Han sent them off with his gaze. Then he hastily yanked Zhao JianGui into his room and asked with a solemn face: “There’s something I wanted to ask you for a long time.”
Zhao JianGui couldn’t help but feel somewhat nervous: “What is it?”
Li Han: “Did Jin BeiGuo and the MoBei twins really have something between them?”
Zhao JianGui: “......”f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂
