" Did you not hear what I just said?" Shen Yu was beyond stunned when she saw Song Yan acting as if she did not hear a thing that she had just said to her. Her eyes were filled with disbelief as this was the first time someone dared to treat her like this in the Gu sect. Because everyone knew that she was Gu Chenyi's fiancée everyone tried to curry favour with her, never before did anyone dare to treat her like such.
" I heard you," Song Yan did not wish to find trouble with Shen Yu but the latter was simply too much like a mad dog unless she received a kick in the back, she would come back to bite. She turned to look at Shen Yu who was glaring at her and calmly stated, " But Master told me that as long as I want to see him, all I need to do is to come and state my name. Unless he is out of the country, he will definitely see me."
" Hah," Shen Yu scoffed as she rolled her eyes, though she was clenching her hands so tight that her nails were digging into the back of her palms. She still narrowed her eyes and then spoke in a sneering voice, "You seem to have overestimated yourself a bit too much, even I as his fiancée couldn't step inside the place where he had gone to cultivate and you think you will be allowed to enter? Why don't you stop humiliating yourself and go back——"
" Master Gu has agreed to see you, Miss Song," just as Shen Yu was getting a kick out of scolding Song Yan, the receptionist standing behind the counter spoke up causing an awkward silence to fill up the entire corridor.
Shen Yu's entire face which was flushed with excitement earlier turned pale as she turned to glare at the secretary. Though her glare was that of a poisonous snake, the secretary did not even flinch. Though Shen Yu was indeed the fiancée of Master Gu Chenyi, everyone who worked on the same floor as Gu Chenyi knew that she was nothing but a nominal fiancée in name and Master Gu had no intentions to marry her.
More importantly, this floor was not under Shen Yu's control or jurisdiction thuc even if she was upset with the secretary, Shen Yu wouldn't be able to kick the woman out of the sect.
" Pfft," Assistant Geng who was standing on the side laughed out loud before he turned his gaze away from Shen Yu whose temper was about to flare up. " Sorry, I think I got something in my eye."
And that made you laugh?
The onlookers couldn't help but question in their heads, though the slap which Shen Yu received was indeed too fast there was no need for Assistant Geng to embarrass her like this —— he could have at least held on to his laugh for a few minutes before laughing like such.
" You!" Shen Yu almost exploded in humiliation, she did not know why but nothing was going her way. Not only was Gu Chenyi not willing to marry her but even his disciples were making fun of her! She turned to look at the secretary who was no longer looking at her and demanded, " Why is it that she can see Chenyi but I can't!"
" You need to ask about this from Master Chenyi, Miss Shen," the secretary calmly replied as she raised her head from the screen of the computer and looked at Shen Yu whose jowls were trembling because of the rage she was feeling.
Though the secretary did not say it outright, Shen Yu knew that she was making fun of her by saying such words. It was embarrassing for a fiancé to agree to see a stranger than the woman to whom he was engaged, Shen Yu was aware of the fact that she and Gu Chenyi did not get along even the slightest bit but she thought that he would at least show her some face if she was to use his grandfather as a threat.
" Fine, tell him that I will be with his grandfather, in case he is willing to see me," Shen Yu did not wish to embarrass herself any more than she already had which was why she turned on her heels and then placed the sunglasses on the bridge of her nose and walked away.
Seeing her leave with that haughty strut, Song Yan did not hold herself back as she threw another talisman and this time it was a much stronger one than she used before.
" It seems like you don't like Miss Shen as well, Miss Song," Assistant Geng of course noticed the bile talisman which Song Yan flicked at Shen Yu's back and was speechless when he saw that Shen Yu did not even notice the talisman which stuck close to her back. Though it was indeed a high-grade talisman, with Shen Yu's cultivation level she should have at least sensed it.
Song Yan looked at Shen Yu whose expression turned worse as soon as she stepped inside the elevator and hurled her breakfast at the old man who was stepping outside causing the old man to pause and turn around to look at Shen Yu with a questioning expression and smirked, " We have some little differences among us and nothing else."
Assistant Gent did not say anything he merely smiled politely and tucked the sore boil talisman back in his pocket before motioning for Song Yan and Fu Yu Sheng to walk ahead of him, " After you."
The three of them walked inside the office which belonged to Gu Chenyi ignoring the apologies which Shen Yu was handing to the old man whom she vomited on.
Once the guards who were standing on the side of the double door pushed the door open for them. As Song Yan stepped inside the familiar room, she instinctively turned to look at the bookshelf but then her gaze met with Assistant Geng who was staring at her funnily and her heart skipped a beat as asked, " How are we supposed to arrive at the locked cave where master is cultivating?"
Assistant Geng arched a brow as he headed towards the bookshelf and pulled a book which caused the bookshelf to part as it opened into the vast sky, " Like this but I suppose you already know that, Miss Song."
