Chapter 403: Chapter 0403: I Understand Now (Fourth Update)

Chu Ge received Shen Yaoyao’s call just as he had finished packing Earth Ganoderma and was about to transport it down the mountain.

He had no signal in the basement before, which is why he didn’t answer her call.

"What’s wrong?" Chu Ge listened to the anxious tone in Shen Yaoyao’s voice over the phone. "What happened?"

Shen Yaoyao looked up at the residential area opposite her, her heart pounding with nervous anticipation. Right now, she also needed someone to boost her morale.

"I’m at Pear Garden right now, come over immediately!"

Shen Yaoyao said hurriedly.

Chu Ge didn’t catch it clearly for a moment, "What? Go where?"

Shen Yaoyao then realized that Chu Ge might not know where Pear Garden was, he wasn’t a local in Su City after all, and chided herself internally for being too impatient. She took a deep breath to calm down and then said, "Come over and pretend to be my boyfriend again!"

Chu Ge was surprised and somewhat speechless, "What, there are people in Su City who are pursuing you too?"

"..." Shen Yaoyao felt suffocated with irritation, and now she was almost made to spit blood by Chu Ge’s comment. "Just come over first! I’m at Pear Garden. Take a taxi straight here! It’s urgent!"

Chu Ge looked up at the sky and chuckled, "Shouldn’t playing your boyfriend have some perks?"

Shen Yaoyao was furious enough to vomit blood. Chu Ge was always one to never be at a loss.

"If you help me pretend to be my boyfriend, I won’t tell Sister Bingtong about you being in Su City!"

Chu Ge was slightly stunned. What could he be up to in Su City?

"Don’t tell me that Tang Xin and Nangong Man Sha don’t have any feelings for you! I’m not blind; women can see right through other women with just one glance. I’m certain that both of them like you!"

Shen Yaoyao insisted with certainty. She was very confident in her intuition.

Chu Ge gave an awkward touch to his nose, not denying it but not admitting it either.

"Wait for me a while; I’ll be right there."

After hanging up, Chu Ge noticed an intense gaze fixed on him, and somewhat speechlessly looked at Huo Tianqian, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Huo Tianqian chuckled, "It’s really nothing; I just think Mr. Chu is quite fortunate with women."

The volume of Shen Yaoyao’s conversation was loud, and with the open spaces of Snow Mountain, he naturally overheard what she said.

The young miss of the Tang Family and the young miss of the Nangong Family both fancy Chu Ge - if this isn’t being lucky with women, what is?

Chu Ge pinched the bridge of his nose, wishing he could do without these fortunes.

"All right, go help Mr. Shen. I’ll head to Pear Garden first." After finishing his words, Chu Ge began his descent down the mountain.

At the entrance of Snow Mountain, the crowd was still sparse and noisy. Chu Ge deliberately took another hidden path.

After coming down from Snow Mountain, Chu Ge took a taxi directly to the Pear Garden as mentioned by Shen Yaoyao.

From a distance, he saw her standing at the intersection, her gaze somewhat lost looking towards the residential area ahead.

Chu Ge got out of the car, walked up to her, and tapped her shoulder, curiously asking, "I thought you had no relatives here, so how did you know about Pear Garden?"

On the taxi ride over, the driver had told him that Pear Garden was a well-known wealthy district in Su City.

Shen Yaoyao was actually able to summon him here, hmm... there must be a catch.

Shen Yaoyao remained silent, merely pulling him along into the neighborhood.

What Chu Ge hadn’t expected was that Shen Yaoyao wanted him to pretend to be her boyfriend in front of her parents.

As he followed Shen Yaoyao to the front of a villa, he suddenly felt that his actions were a bit presumptuous.

"Yaoyao, you want to take me to meet your parents?" Chu Ge found the situation a bit delicate, "Also, are you from Su City too?"

He never knew before, "If your home is in Su City, how could you say you have no family and end up living with the Tang Family?"

Shen Yaoyao was already quite irritated, and hearing Chu Ge’s questioning made her even more agitated.

She turned back and glared at Chu Ge, saying somewhat displeased: "I had run away from home! Is that not okay?"

Chu Ge: "..."

Fine! Of course, it’s fine! This did indeed seem like something Shen Yaoyao would do!

Chu Ge looked down at his own attire. Having been through a rough day climbing Snow Mountain and busying about, he was quite disheveled now. Going to meet Shen Yaoyao’s parents in this state seemed like it would backfire.

So, after some thought, Chu Ge suggested: "Are you sure you want to introduce me to your parents today? If you want to improve the relationship with them, I think this is too abrupt!"

There wasn’t much relationship between them in the first place yet now he had to pretend to meet the parents, which seemed a bit too much.

Chu Ge was somewhat unwilling in his heart. If it had been a friend of Shen Yaoyao’s, he would have agreed without hesitation, but since it was her parents, he needed to consider it carefully.

Actually, Shen Yaoyao also realized that this was abrupt, and she was now regretting it. She shouldn’t have listened to Shen Mimi’s words, shouldn’t have been provoked by her.

"Shall we come another day then?" Shen Yaoyao also suggested retreat.

Chu Ge sighed and then nodded, "We’ll come another day then. Looking like this, I doubt that meeting your parents would help ease your relationship with them."

And so, Shen Sisi beat a retreat at the villa’s entrance, leaving Pear Garden together with Chu Ge.

What she hadn’t noticed was that, in a bedroom on the second floor of the villa, a hunched figure stood there, watching Shen Yaoyao’s departing figure with tears wetting the eyes.

At the same time, within a private club.

Honda Sakura looked at Elder Gui with some speechlessness, "Elder Gui, why did you choose to duel with Chu Ge in a fair and square way?"

That clearly wasn’t the style of the Ghost Poison Sect!

The Ghost Poison Sect Master sat there, resting with eyes closed. Hearing what Honda Sakura said, he slowly opened his eyes and let out a faint chuckle, saying, "Do you think I am the type to act despicably? Half of my disciples have died at Chu Ge’s hands, and this battle is also to avenge my brothers."

Elder Gui’s words sounded nice, but according to Honda Sakura’s understanding of him, Elder Gui was definitely not interested in avenging those disciples for straight reasons.

After all, from what she knew about Elder Gui, he was a very cunning and scheming villain.

"Don’t you think three days is too soon for the duel?" Honda Sakura was still worried. She was unsure about the extent of Chu Ge’s abilities, but all her tasks had been thwarted by him time after time.

If Elder Gui could use this opportunity to eliminate Chu Ge, to destroy the thorn in her side, she would be pleased to see it happen.

But for someone daring enough to challenge an Innate Grandmaster, could he have reached the level of an Innate Grandmaster himself?

Honda Sakura’s thoughts were laid bare on her face, and Elder Gui narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze full of disdain, "Right now, you should consider how to obtain the Earth Ganoderma! Shen Xianming has been caught and taken back; that pawn is no longer useful. And because of the explosion, Shen Congwen will definitely move the Earth Ganoderma somewhere else. Use these three days to investigate carefully!"

"I understand." Honda Sakura pouted, thinking of the coward Shen Xianming, feeling even more indignant inside.
