Hearing Kang Shi’s words, Ziluo’s expression immediately changed. The smile on her face was now completely stiff.
She had specially dressed up when she went out, and she had been smiling at Kang Shi today. It was already very good that she could treat someone like him like this. But he actually dared to reject her and say that he wanted something.
She was Ziluo. She actually had to take out something when she wanted pills. What a joke, and it was extremely ridiculous.
“Are you sure that I need to offer something in return?” Ziluo asked seriously.
Gu Chaoyan almost rolled her eyes at her. She had a good idea.
Back then, she looked down on Kang Shi and directly disrespected Kang Shi and his father in front of the Anicca Clan.
Later on, Kang Shi was put in a difficult position. Hadn’t they embarrassed him enough?
Now that he only had some pills, they wanted to take them away as if Kang Shi owed her. Even if Kang Shi’s cultivation had not improved, he was still a person with dignity.
She really did not treat Kang Shi as humans.
Gu Chaoyan smiled mockingly. “I have never met you before, and I have nothing to do with you. Why don’t you give me other disciples? Or are you going to do something special?”
“If you don’t have anything, leave quickly. Don’t waste time here. I still have a lot of things to do.” Kang Shi wanted to chase her away.
Comparisons were odious.
During his lowest moments, nobody showed concern for Kang Shi. Little Junior Sister, on the other hand, believed in his capabilities and extended significant help. Even when she approached him, she never demanded assistance with such confidence. Instead, she either provided him with Spirit Stones or offered her best items. Even if Kang Shi insisted on giving her things for free, she adamantly refused to accept them without offering something in return.
Gu Chaoyan shook her head in disapproval
It appeared that Elder Miss had come empty-handed and for no apparent reason, making the whole encounter a waste of time!
Kang Shi, focused on his pill refining, saw Ziluo’s frustration and couldn’t help but think how foolish he was. In his mind, she should have realized that if she wanted something, he would willingly give it to her.
Expressing her apparent displeasure, Ziluo took out an accessory. “Here, for you.”
Gu Chaoyan turned around, curious about the offering. She hesitated, not wanting to miss out on potential treasures from the daughter of the Clan Leader of True Martial Race.
As Gu Chaoyan faced her, she noticed Ziluo holding the accessory. An eyeroll escaped Kang Shi’s reaction to what he perceived as a strange move.
“Why would I, a man and a cultivator, need such a thing?” Gu Chaoyan questioned with a hint of impatience. “I can’t wear it myself, can I? If you’re not sincere, that’s fine, but I have plenty of items available for exchange.”
Ziluo, frustrated, stomped her feet at Kang Shi’s apparent lack of understanding. In her mind, he was simply a fool who couldn’t comprehend the situation. She had hoped to establish a better relationship with him in the future.
Gu Chaoyan, losing patience, left the scene.
Left with no other choice, Ziluo decided to return and fetch something more substantial. It seemed she would need to find the right time to explain things to Kang Shi.
She stomped her feet and left in a hurry. Just as she went out, she bumped into someone.
This person was Little Junior Sister.
Ziluo shot a glare at Gu Chaoyan and stormed out of the place.
Upon stepping outside, she encountered several people, including Gao Zhuo and others, who couldn’t resist teasing her. Gao Zhuo spoke up, “What brought you to Kang Shi’s place? Weren’t you engaged with him in the past? You used to warn him to stay away, and now you’re actively seeking him out. What changed?”
