Chapter 286: Master Liu

I shook my head. “Master Liu, you need to stop. People will misunderstand.”

Gu Nian looked at me and sighed. “I don’t get it. How am I inferior to Jing Tian? Why is he so lucky to have you?”

I took a sip of my vanilla coffee and nodded in all seriousness. “He has accumulated plenty of karma in our previous lives.” That was true. I had surrendered my heart to him in our previous lives!

Gu Nian’s smile became even brighter. “Nanxing, with you, all my troubles will vanish into thin air.”

I thought for a moment. “In that case, I will charge you next time you come find me. I’ll charge about as much as I therapist!”

“I’ll gladly pay!” Gu Nian smiled.

My gaze shifted, “Those people are not just following me, are they? Did Master Liu offend someone recently?”

Gu Nian caressed the rim of his cup. Then he smiled at me. “Everyone knows that I like you so my loyalty is being questioned. Furthermore, I disprove of Mrs. Mai’s actions.”

I smiled as an idea had just come to me. “Master Liu, do you want to join Sky City?”

Gu Nian was startled before he nodded and laughed. “If Sister Xing would agree, then we would have the acceptance ceremony on the spot.”

I waved my hands with a smile. “Master Liu, I was only kidding. Sky City is too small to accommodate someone like you!” I leaned back in the chair. “What do you think those people are thinking when they see me and you chatting so casually? Master Liu, looks like you have no choice but to abandon the light and join the dark.”

Gu Nian choked. “Abandon the light and join the Dark?”

I smiled. “Sure. After all, Mrs. Mai represents the light.” I pointed at myself. “And I represent the dark. If Master Liu defected to Sky City, wouldn’t you have abandoned the light to join the dark? But that won’t be a wise move. After all, trust betrayed will not be easily earned back. Once you’re labeled as disloyal by the purveyor of light, life will be so much harder for you, Master Liu. Of course, unless you’re here as a spy.” I chuckled.

Gu Nian gave me a wry smile in return.

“So, what is it that you want to tell me about Mai Qi?” Since the prelude was over, it was time to get down to business.

“Mrs. Mai wants to marry Mai Qi to Shi Feng, “Gu Nian went straight to the point.

I nodded. “Mai Qi told me already. She is sick. I told her that no one will marry her unless she is willing.”

Gu Nian looked at me with a complicated expression. “Nanxing, you’re not omnipotent.”

“I know, but Mai Qi is my good friend. I will not let her be bullied, not even by her mother.” I said it with absolute certainty. I knew how unreasonable I sounded.

Gu Nian sighed. “Nanxing, Mai Qi is lucky to have a friend in you. In fact, anyone who is your friend is extremely lucky.”

I looked at him. “I’ve heard that many times. But I’m also lucky to have Mai Qi as my friend. Our friendship is mutual. Since she is my friend, I will have to protect her.”

Gu Nian leaned back in his chair and said softly, “Nanxing, you won’t be able to protect her. This matter is beyond your capabilities.”

I shrugged. “Man can always fight destiny.” I was thinking about the promise someone had given me. Of course, I wouldn’t use that trump card unless necessary.

Gu Nian persuaded patiently, “Nanxing, we’re friends, right? Heed my advice. You need to stay out of this. Mrs. Mai is Mai Qi’s mother.”

“So what? It doesn’t mean she has the right to force Mai Qi! We’re not in Ancient China. The age of political marriage is over.” I said lightly.
