"Mr. Gu?" Wu Lan murmured softly, her expression suddenly changing. "Mother, does this mean you’re not actually dead?" "No, no, no! You died, but Mr. Gu brought you back to life!"

Chapter 79: Plagiarism
“What kind of nonsense poem is this? Completely incoherent garbage!” Wei Hai muttered under his breath before nudging Li Xunshan next to him. “Kid, have you thought of something to put that arrogant brat in his place?”“A Talented Man and a Beautiful Woman... Why would Yue'er choose such a topic? Could it be that, in her heart, she sees herself and Sun Xuan...” Li Xunshan trailed off, but before he could finish, Wei Hai gave him a firm but not harsh slap on the shoulder.“You idiot! And…-

Who would’ve thought that this poetry conference wasn’t entirely a "child’s play" gathering? To think someone embodying immense righteous qi like that elder would attend.However, judging by the old man’s demeanor, he seemed more like a prominent figure disguising himself for a leisurely outing.

Without the black cloth covering his face, he would surely be the type of young scholar that would catch the attention of women on the street."I need to cover my face a bit.

Hearing this, Wei Hai and the old beggar exchanged a glance, then both turned to Gu Ning’an.Seeing their looks, Gu Ning’an smiled and said, “I’m not in a rush. But visiting your home now might interrupt your rare time to reunite with Miss Ren Yue.”At this, Li Xunshan waved his hands repeatedly. “There’s nothing special between Yue’er and me.
