Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Did You Dream of Me?

Song Chen looked a bit troubled, "Young master, Gu Jiahui’s father was the old man’s former subordinate. Even the Master and Madam have to show them some respect. This matter is beyond my authority."

When he mentioned the old man, he wasn’t referring to Gu Shiting’s grandfather, but his maternal grandfather.

Although Gu Shiting’s maternal grandfather is retired, he still has significant connections in the military and political circles.

Before Gu Jiahui’s father ventured into business, he was also a soldier. During that time, he taught himself English in the army. The old man found out about this by chance and greatly admired the young man.

Later, when he went abroad, the old man assisted him a bit. As time went on, Gu Jiahui’s father’s business grew significantly, and he gained quite a reputation, leading to frequent interactions between the two families.

"I’ll call my grandfather," Gu Shiting said.

Sheng Tang pressed his hand, "No, no, no, why are you in such a hurry?"

Gu Shiting’s body stiffened slightly.

Sheng Tang’s hand on his made him feel very awkward.

"Someone like Gu Jiahui, the more upset you get, the happier he is," Sheng Tang smiled, "It’s okay. If he wants to play, we’ll play along. He’s never beaten me before, just a defeated foe."

Song Chen laughed, "Tangtang is very confident, that’s great. Young master, there’s no need to be upset with him. Those tricks of his won’t hold up."

Gu Shiting said no more.

When practicing with the whip, Gu Shiting had already mastered the technique and could handle it with ease.

Sheng Tang was still practicing retracting the whip.

Gu Shiting learned quickly and silently reinforced his skills on the side while Sheng Tang continued to follow the coach’s instructions.

Turning his head, Sheng Tang noticed Gu Shiting repeatedly whipping the practice dummy, which was soon torn to bits.

Sheng Tang: "..."

Coach: "..."

The young master was in a bad mood today, so both Sheng Tang and the coach moved aside to avoid getting hit by the whip.

By the end of the session, Sheng Tang had gotten quite good at retracting the whip.

She still wasn’t as nimble as Gu Shiting, though.

After practice, Sheng Tang went for another swim, but Gu Shiting refused to get in the water.

Instead, he started lifting weights in the equipment room nearby.

After an hour of swimming, Sheng Tang sat by the pool to rest, and Song Chen happened to pass by.

She called out to Song Chen, "What’s up with my brother today? He seems a bit strange."

Following Doctor Sun’s instructions, Song Chen explained Gu Shiting’s situation to Sheng Tang.

Hearing this, Sheng Tang couldn’t help but feel happy, "That’s great. His body is recovering normally, and the other issues will get better over time."

"That’s what Doctor Sun said as well."

"So he’s avoiding me because he dreamt about me?" Sheng Tang asked.

Song Chen: "Yes."

Sheng Tang: "...."

She silently smiled for a long while, then suddenly said to Song Chen, "I think your young master has quite a peculiar taste. If I were a boy his age, I’d definitely fantasize about prettier girls."

"To the young master, Tangtang is the most beautiful," Song Chen replied.

Sheng Tang felt a bit touched, "See, your young master is such a kind-hearted person. If he were my son, I’d be burning incense in gratitude."

Song Chen: "..."

These two people are quite unusual.

What Song Chen admired most about Sheng Tang was her constancy. Many topics that might embarrass others seemed entirely commonplace to her.

She didn’t seem like a typical seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl at all.

After finishing her swim, Sheng Tang went upstairs for a shower. Learning that Gu Shiting had returned to his room, she purposefully went to knock on his door.

Gu Shiting had changed into his pajamas and was doing his homework at his desk. When he saw her come in, his body stiffened again.

Sheng Tang sat next to him.

"I heard you dreamt about me last night?" Sheng Tang straightforwardly asked.
