Chapter 16 - Disguised as a Girl?
When she opened her eyes again, the first one she saw was Mo Bai.
"Mo Bai?" Gu Qingyu found herself on a bed. She tried to get up, but Mo Bai pushed her back down.
"Miss Gu, you were chosen by the Blood Fated Jade. You"ll feel somewhat uncomfortable and unusual in the beginning." Mo Bai smiled, "It would be best if you don"t move around for a couple of days."
"Ohhh…But I"m fine." Gu Qingyu still got up, and noticed Jia Qizhe, Qi Yichen and Little Qi standing beside her. Next to her pillow……laid the red-colored Blood Life Jade.
Since Mo Bai was a Divine Healer, to see him first was completely understandable. But……
"How did I go unconscious?" Gu Qingyu"s first reaction was to ask this.
The black-robed man walked in, "Since you have received the Blood Life Jade. You simply fainted the moment the power started to merge with your body."
Gu Qingyu started to feel uneasy when she saw him, she couldn"t forget that "piece of rock" he talked about.
"No need to worry, this old one won"t hurt you." He flickered his sleeves, "Tomorrow morning, you"re going to look for a person, his name is Murong Ranyue."
"Huh?" Gu Qingyu immediately came back to her senses, "Murong? Isn"t that the name of the imperial family!"
"Correct." Said the man vaguely.
"Why should I look for him?" She looked curiously at him.
"He possesses a certain plant, it could help you suppress the presence of the Blood Life Jade. To be exact, he"s a Divine Healer." explained the man.
Divine Healer? She glanced at Mo Bai, "Don"t we have Mo Bai already? He"s a Divine Healer!"
"That plant was created by Murong Ranyue himself, except for him, no one else knows the formula" The black-robed man shrugged his shoulders, "He"s the most skilled in healing arts among the princes, but he doesn"t know any martial arts. You"ll find him quite easily, he"s currently residing in the capital."
"Are——you——kidding——me?" She answered in a dragging voice, "I barely even got out——"
The scorching sun blazed down on the ground, however Gu Qingyu started to break out in a cold sweat.
Mo Bai walked beside her and kept looking at her, "Miss Gu, are you alright?"
"No, I"m fine……" She wiped off her cold sweat, "I"m just trying to recall, how I accepted the request of the Blood Life Jade……and trying to figure out how to escape again after finding that person……"
"You"re worrying about this?" Ji Qizhe"s mouth curled, before pulling her before him.
"Aing?" A puzzled look enveloped over her face, "Yeah."
"Aren"t you just worrying about being found by the people of Gu Manor." Jia Qizhe snorted, his palm brimmed with blue light and swept towards Gu Qingyu"s body.
"Uh……" A layer of blue light wrapped around her whole body before she got to say anything.
Jia Qizhe slowly let his hands down and appraised Gu Qingyu, as if he was observing an artwork, "Mm……pretty good."
"Eh……?" Bewildered, Gu Qingyu took a look at herself.
Not only her, but everyone present were stunned as well.
Gu Qingyu subconsciously touched her cheeks, "Eh? Nothing changed? Why is everyone gaping? What"s actually happening……"
As if by reflex, she looked down at her body……Heavens! Her light-yellow dress has turned into a light-purple robe. The robe was even covered in elegant and mysterious patterns!
She immediately felt her hair——As expected! Her former hairstyle has been changed into a male hairstyle! ——Such a typical male disguise!!
So……this means that Jia Qizhe wants her to pretend to be a guy??
Simply too brilliant!
