Chapter 636 The People of the Shadow School
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.”
“What?” The young man bursts into anger at once and snorts, “Does he know who we are?”
“You didn’t tell me either!” The servant wants to roll his eyes but the servant of the Yue Family is not a snob. If these three men turn out to have powerful backing, won’t it be causing trouble for Gao Ge and the Yue Family?
The young man thinks it over and says, “Tell Gao Ge that we are the people of the Shadow School.”
“Okay.”
The servant thinks about it and then goes back.
“Hmm. Who does he think he is?” The young man looks extremely disgruntled. “I didn’t expect Gao Ge to be bold enough to keep us waiting outside.”
A bearded middle-aged man persuades him in a low voice, “Young Master, don’t forget why we come to meet Gao Ge this time.”
“Of course I know,” the young man sneers. “It is a great lucky chance for him too but judging from his current performance, I’m gravely dissatisfied.”
The two middle-aged men behind him look each other in the eye and both smile bitterly.
They both believe that their young master does have no sense of propriety.
This may be really a lucky chance for ordinary people.
However, now Gao Ge has been a swordsman at the realm of Master.
Even in the Shadow School, there are only three cultivators at the realm of Master...
Very soon, the servant comes back again.
“What? Can we go in now?” The young man says.
“Mr. Gao says that since you are from the Shadow School, then...”
The young man has walked forward with a smile.
However, the servant widens his eyes and continues, “You shall continue waiting outside! Therefore, the three of you, please wait here then.”
The young man gazes at the servant with staring eyes and asks, “Did I hear it wrongly or you say it mistakenly?”
“I didn’t say anything mistakenly.” The servant is a bit angry too. What does this young man mean? This young man is clearly despising his hearing!
The young man gnashes his teeth in anger and continues, “You mean Gao Ge has known we are from the Shadow School and still asks us to wait outside?”
“Yeah,” the servant nods his head and also feels annoyed.
He has repeated it several times.
How can the young man ask such a stupid question?
There must be something wrong with this young man’s hearing.
What an idiot!
It is so difficult for him...
“How dare he! How dare he! Who does Gao Ge think he is? How dare he belittle us like this?”
“Young Master, mind your mouth!” The bearded man hastens to remind him.
“I don’t care. I’m going inside now. Who dares to stop me?!” The young man snorts and wants to get inside.
Without hesitation, the bearded man grabs his arm at once.
“Hands off! What are you doing?” The young man snaps.
“Young Master, it is not a trivial thing. If we really fall out with Gao Ge, we will be punished when we go back...” The bearded man whispers. “Liu Bei made three calls at the thatched cottage of Zhuge Liang and scholars can also wait for their teacher in the snow. Comparatively, what we are doing is nothing at all. Besides, Young Master, you know Second Young Master is on the way. If...”
The young man is dazed, turns around to look at the yard, and then heaves a sigh.
“Fine. Let’s wait for a moment. Hopefully, Gao Ge is a man who understands the times,” the young man says with a deep voice.
The other two middle-aged men can only smile bitterly.
It is definitely a stupid thing to follow their eldest young master out...
