Gu Zhiqi wasn’t there to listen to her apology, and directly asked, "Do you know Zhang Xiuli?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Yingying looked up at Gu Zhiqi, her eyes filled with confusion, "Zhang Xiuli is... who?"

As she spoke the last word, her expression began to grow distracted.

Gu Zhiqi watched Fu Yingying and continued to ask, "Are you sure you don’t know Gu Bo and Zhang Xiuli?"

Fu Yingying shook her head.

Gu Zhiqi continued to ask, "Do you know you have Gu Zhiqi’s destiny on you?"

Fu Yingying shook her head again.

Seeing this, Gu Zhiqi raised an eyebrow slightly and then asked, "Have you heard of someone called Lord Neng?"

The answer was still negative.

Gu Zhiqi: "Have you ever been in contact with a Mystic Master or someone named Angel?"

Fu Yingying: "No."

After hearing this, Gu Zhiqi squinted her eyes slightly, the color in her eyes deepening.

She then asked Fu Yingying about the old man, and the answer she got was unawareness.

Thus, the questioning ended in less than ten minutes.

After the questioning ended, Fu Yingying fainted.

Gu Zhiqi set up a formation on her to retrieve the destiny.

However, because the destiny had been with Fu Yingying for a long time, it couldn’t be taken back all at once and needed to be slowly recovered.

However, it shouldn’t take too long, at most half a year, for the destiny to be fully returned.

After finishing everything, Gu Zhiqi carried the person back to the living room.

When everyone saw Gu Zhiqi carrying the unconscious Fu Yingying back to the living room, they were all momentarily stunned, and Fu Wangchan was the first to speak.

"Did she attack you?"

Gu Zhiqi: "...No."

It was she who attacked Fu Yingying.

Fu Xiyan: "Is it related to Grandfather?"

Fu Xiyan knew that Gu Zhiqi could perform hypnotism and guessed that the earlier private conversation with Fu Yingying was to interrogate her.

Gu Zhiqi shook her head at Fu Xiyan and said, "She said she doesn’t know."

All of Fu Yingying’s answers were negative, leaving Gu Zhiqi still somewhat suspicious of her. However, there was indeed no evidence, so she told Fu Xiyan honestly.

After hearing Gu Zhiqi’s answer, Fu Xiyan pondered for two seconds and coldly said, "Then we’ll tentatively take her word for it."

Afterwards, Fu Xiyan discussed the whereabouts of Fu Yingying’s other four paintings with Gu Zhiqi.

After listening, Gu Zhiqi said, "There’s no rush to retrieve them. Most of the Vital Breath has already returned to Grandfather Fu. A delay of three to five years won’t be an issue."

"Oh, by the way, I gave Grandfather Fu a jade pendant. After he takes the surname, remind him to always wear the jade pendant."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xiyan immediately responded, "Okay."

Soon, it was lunchtime.

Gu Zhiqi and her party had lunch at the Fu Family and chatted for a while before leaving.

**

The next day, Gu Zhiqi said goodbye to Madam Yun and the others and returned to Haicheng.

Originally, she came for Gu Xingruo, but unexpectedly, she stayed in the Ancient Martial Arts World for so long.

Su Yunling and Tang Yichen also left the Ancient Martial Arts World with Gu Zhiqi.

However, the two had matters to attend to, so they stayed in the imperial capital while Gu Zhiqi returned to Haicheng.

By the time she returned to Haicheng, it was already April 27th, a Sunday, and the next day was Monday, a school day, so Gu Zhiqi resumed her school days.

And this day happened to be the day Central Continent Academy’s First Institute released the entrance exam results.

Every year, the results are released precisely at noon, and this year was no exception.

Aside from the teachers at the First Institute, no one could get the answers in advance, so as it neared noon, everyone was anxiously waiting for the results.
