Chapter 163: Exposed?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Second brother, I met Master Mountain River today!”
Gu Shiyan instinctively glanced at Lu Miao, only to find her engrossed in watching TV, showing no reaction.
Leisurely taking off his jacket, Gu Shiyan asked, “Where did you meet her?”
“At my friend’s place.” Gu Ziheng excitedly recounted what he had witnessed at MO Xueqing’s earlier that morning.
“Bro, you have no idea how impressive she was! With just a raw egg, a cigarette, and her hands like this, and like that…”
As Gu Ziheng spoke, he animatedly demonstrated Master Mountain River’s gestures and movements.
“He completely handled that troublesome little ghost! If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe such magical things exist in this world.”
Gu Shiyan’s experience differed from MO Xueqing’s; it had nothing to do with demons or monsters. Moreover, he hadn’t personally witnessed what Master Mountain River did. So although he found it extraordinary at the time, it wasn’t as shocking as seeing it firsthand today!
“I even wanted to ask her to take me as her apprentice, but he flatly refused,” Gu Ziheng said with a hint of regret.
Gu Shiyan smoothed his clothes and asked, “Did you get a clear look at what he looked like?”
Gu Ziheng pondered for a moment. “She was a pretty woman. Judging by her attire, she should be around the same age as you, second brother. She had long legs, seemingly taller than Second Sister-in-law.”
Hearing these descriptions, Gu Shiyan furrowed his brow. “Are you certain you saw her clearly?”
“Absolutely! My eyesight is 2.5; it couldn’t be any clearer,” Gu Ziheng proudly affirmed.
That was something he could vouch for.
Gu Shiyan moved to the front and sat on the sofa beside Lu Miao.
Except for being female, none of these characteristics matched Lu Miao.
Could it be that he had guessed wrong?
Was it merely a coincidence that Lu Miao happened to possess some knowledge in this field, and Master Mountain River had nothing to do with him?
After a brief pause, Gu Shiyu spoke again, “Are you sure it was Master Mountain River?”
“I’m certain, without a doubt.”
Gu Ziheng took out his phone.” This is the link to the forum that Tang Fei sent me. This forum requires some special identity verification to register. Very few ordinary people know about it. However, in the entertainment industry, there were people who would do anything to become famous. It was not surprising that someone would know. I borrowed someone else’s account and password from Tang Fei to log into the forum. Her ID does show that she is called Master Mountain River. She was extremely popular on the forum. It was said that people would pay high amount to request for her help. Her amulet was now sold for six figures outside. But, it depended on her mood to take orders. Moreover, no matter whether it was online or offline, she had never failed a single order. I also took the opportunity to buy an amulet. However, there were still 989 people queuing for amulets in front of me, so I didn’t know when it would be my turn.”
As he explained, he opened Master Mountain River’s ID.
Gu Shiyan reached out to take a look. The account profile picture should be the simplest system profile picture. The system automatically showed that she had just successfully completed a bounty mission in the morning.
There was only one amulet in the display window.
Other than that, it was clean as if it was a newly registered account.
He couldn’t find any clues.
Gu Shiyan looked at Lu Miao, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa and watching TV leisurely. He raised his eyebrows slightly and handed the phone in his hand to Lu Miao.
“Do you really think this is Master Mountain River?”
Lu Miao took it and glanced at the screen. Good, not bad. It was indeed her account.
It seemed like it was time to upgrade the forum and increase the difficulty of account registration.
In particular, the act of borrowing accounts must be strictly prohibited.
Those who were caught would have their accounts permanently suspended!
She casually scrolled through it a few times, then clicked back to remember the account that Gu Ziheng borrowed. Then, she returned the phone to Gu Shiyan.
She replied with certainty,” Yes, isn’t the name ‘Master Mountain River’ written here?””
Gu Shiyan looked at the message on his phone screen thoughtfully. A moment later, he opened the private message and sent a message directly.
“Can we talk face-to-face?”
After a while, the account replied,” No private meetings, no urgent orders.”
Lu Miao, who was beside him, was holding a glass of water and drinking water. From time to time, she would discuss the problems in the show with Gu Ziheng. Clearly, she was not the one who replied.
Gu Shiyan put away his phone and did not reply.
Lu Miao did not know how to split herself, so it was impossible for her to reply to the message.
All the signs indicated that Lu Miao really had nothing to do with that Master Landscape.
However, his sixth sense told him that this was not the case.
His mind was spinning rapidly, and his eyes were unconsciously staring at the television screen in front of his.
“Does it look good?”
Gu Shiyan nodded subconsciously.
After answering, he realized that on the television in front of him, a few beautiful, young, and beautiful girls were dancing a rather hot dance.
A pair of long legs stood out in the camera.
Lu Miao looked at him meaningfully.” It’s alright. Take your time. I’ll go up and rest first.’”‘
With that, she put down the cup in her hand and got up to go upstairs.
“No, I’m not referring to their legs.”Gu Shiyan quickly explained.
“Oh, their faces are indeed quite good -looking. “Lu Miao nodded and headed upstairs.
He didn’t look at their faces!
Gu Shiyan stood up and wanted to explain again.
On the side, Gu Ziheng gleefully patted Gu Shiyan’s shoulder and said, “Second brother, explanations are just a cover-up, and a cover-up is dishonest. It’s better for you to keep quiet.”
Gu Shiyam’s temple throbbed.
This brat was deliberately tarnishing his image in front of Lu Miao, wasn’t he?
Clearly, it was Gu Ziheng who was watching the show, and he didn’t even spare a glance!
Giving him a cool look, Gu Shin said, “It’s getting late, and this program should be ending soon.”
Gu Ziheng showed no fear of his threat. “Second brother, don’t forget, right now, Second Sister-in-law is the biggest sponsor ot this show.”
With that, Gu Ziheng arrogantly went upstairs.
Gu Shiyan seethed with anger.
This brat was taking advantage of Lu Miao’s presence to act so brazenly in front of him.
Fine, once the program was over, he would settle the score with him!
Lu Miao returned to her room and first sent a thumbs-up gesture to Lin Bufan on her phone, indicating that everything was fine.
She had already anticipated that Gu Ziheng would inform Gu Shiyan when he returned, so she had Lin Bufan log into her account in advance, just in case.
Then she directly logged into the forum’s administrator account and efficiently modified the forum’s moderation rules.
This forum wasn’t entirely created by her. When she first crossed over to this world, she accidentally stumbled upon a few underground websites and integrated their contacts and resources to establish this forum called “Qilin.”
As a result, the current account holders of Qilin were the previous account holders of those websites, a diverse and extensive group of people.
Lu Miao made the Qilin website’s URL even more discreet and removed several accounts that only caused trouble on the forum every day..
