CHAPTER 975: CHAPTER 975: YANG CAIXUAN AND THE ORIGINAL HOST ARE SUPERFICIAL BESTIES

Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s previous answer, both Lu Xingzhe and Qiao Qingshu curved their lips slightly.

Yet, Yang Caixuan was stunned by Gu Zhiqi’s previous words for several seconds, unable to react.

After quite a while, Yang Caixuan looked at Gu Zhiqi with eyes glistening with tears, "Qiqi, are you still blaming me for what happened before?"

Gu Zhiqi did not reply to her, merely said lazily, "If there’s nothing important, I’ll leave first."

After speaking, she stepped to the side, crossed past Yang Caixuan, and headed towards the stairs.

Seeing this, Lu Xingzhe and Qiao Qingshu immediately followed suit.

Yang Caixuan was still brewing her tears, stunned for a moment upon seeing Gu Zhiqi leave suddenly, then turned around swiftly and chased after her with quick steps, "Qiqi, wait a moment."

Upon hearing the voice from behind, Qiao Qingshu’s indifferent eyes flashed with a hint of chill. She stepped forward a few paces, reached out to hold Gu Zhiqi’s arm, slightly tilted her head, and asked, "What shall we eat later?"

Seeing this, Lu Xingzhe also stepped forward and stood on the other side of Gu Zhiqi, cutting off Yang Caixuan’s chance to hold Gu Zhiqi’s other arm.

Seeing this, Yang Caixuan’s steps slightly paused.

Dammit, when did the three of them reconcile?

Earlier, seeing them walk together, she thought it was just a coincidence, not realizing they’d gotten together again.

Yang Caixuan gritted her teeth, took a few large steps past the three, finally stretched out her arms, blocking them, and looked eagerly at Gu Zhiqi, "Qiqi, I have something to tell you. Can we talk alone?"

Gu Zhiqi’s expression remained unchanged, still lazily, "I think there’s nothing left for us to talk about."

Seeing Gu Zhiqi like this, a trace of hurt welled up in Yang Caixuan’s eyes. She staggered back a couple of steps and said to Gu Zhiqi, "Is it really impossible for us to go back?"

"Just because Master Cui took me as a disciple but not you, is that where our friendship ends? But what could I do? Master only admired my zither skills. I even showed him your video, but Master was unwilling to take you as a disciple too."

In the examination room along this corridor, all were students within the top hundred of the grade, with quite a few having submitted their papers early.

Now, seeing Yang Caixuan blocking Gu Zhiqi and the others in the corridor naturally drew the attention of passersby, and everyone stopped to watch.

Listening to Yang Caixuan’s words, memories from the last semester were stirred up.

Before Gu Xiyue was recognized, the original owner, besides liking to maintain spare relationships, had kept a fairly good image outside, being good-looking, performing well academically, and able to play the piano, also being recognized as the school beauty of Sea City No.1 Middle School.

Coincidentally, Yang Caixuan was also good-looking, academically decent, and could play the piano.

However, whether in appearance, grades, or piano skills, Yang Caixuan wasn’t comparable to the original owner.

Nevertheless, because the two were good friends, whenever the school had performances, Yang Caixuan and Gu Zhiqi would be involved, over time becoming recognized as school beauties.

Everyone knew the two school beauties of Sea City No.1 Middle School were very close friends.

But during the arts festival last semester, these close friends had a conflict that became widely known.

Gu Zhiqi caused quite a scene when Master Cui took Yang Caixuan as a disciple but not her, and the matter was widely spread at the time.

Originally, since Gu Zhiqi surpassed Yang Caixuan in various aspects, she had more supporters than Yang Caixuan.

However, because of the disciple-taking event, Gu Zhiqi’s reputation wasn’t as favorable as before, while Yang Caixuan’s supporters grew to outnumber Gu Zhiqi’s.
