Starting From Fooling the Elderly into Registering for a Cultivation Training Class Chapter 91 – I Must Hang Onto His Coattails

Gu Hongtao knelt down in front of Wang Zhixing with a thud.

Wang Zhixing felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. He was dumbfounded.

He did not expect Gu Hongtao to kneel.

What was that nonsense he just spewed?

Forgiveness and poor hospitality? What does he mean?

After being stunned for a few seconds, Wang Zhixing immediately helped Gu Hongtao up.

“Um, why the need for such a grand gesture?”

Wang Zhixing felt embarrassed that he had taken such a huge advantage of the other person.

Gu Hongtao bowed. “Senior, if you are dissatisfied in any way, feel free to tell me. I will definitely change.”

Wang Zhixing was stumped.

I have nothing to be unhappy about!

What is wrong with this person?

Wang Zhixing was truly confused.

However, when he saw the other party's eager gaze for recognition, he feared that he would kneel down again. He braced himself and replied, “I'm not unhappy. You did well.”

Gu Hongtao's eyes lit up.

“Senior, what about the tea that I've been treasuring?”

“Fine! I'll have a taste,” Wang Zhixing said helplessly.

To be honest, he didn't really like drinking tea, but he had no choice. He was afraid that the other party would do something bizarre again.

At this moment, it was like a flower had bloomed in Gu Hongtao's heart.

Just like that, he led Wang Zhixing to the academy's main hall.

There were two youths in the hall. When they saw their dean being so respectful to a stranger, they were shocked and tried to guess the stranger's identity.

After arriving at the main hall, Gu Hongtao instructed the two youths.

“Quickly bring my tea set here.”

The two youths were stunned.

They knew that there were two things that the dean wouldn't let anyone touch.

The first was his long eyebrows.

The second was his tea set.

But now, he had ordered them to get the tea set, and they had to be quick.

Isn't he afraid of it breaking?

If we break it, how will we pay for it?

The two youths wanted to refuse.

However, Gu Hongtao urged them, “Hurry.”

When faced with such fierce orders, the two youths had no choice but to comply.

At this moment, Wang Zhixing was standing in the main hall. The surrounding furniture was ancient, and the decorations were classical. The hall was well-aged.

There was a large shelf on the right wall of the main hall.

There were various trophies, medals, certificates of honor, and photo frames.

Wang Zhixing came to the shelf and carefully examined it.

These trophies and medals all came from martial arts conferences, boxing, free combat, and other martial arts competitions.

Gu Hongtao walked over when he saw Wang Zhixing looking at them so seriously.

Wang Zhixing said, “Your academy is quite impressive! You've nurtured so many champions.”

Gu Hongtao was very happy to hear that.

He said humbly, “It's all thanks to my peers. That's why we seem so outstanding. I've embarrassed myself in front of you.”

Wang Zhixing said, “You can't put it that way. You might have won one championship from luck, but there are so many trophies. Your academy must have been stronger.”

After Gu Hongtao heard that, he thought that Wang Zhixing was praising them and was even happier.

If his martial arts academy could win his favor, no other academy in the north would dare to challenge them, if not the entire country.

However, in the recent few years, his academy was going downhill.

Gu Hongtao felt that the main issue was their location. It was too remote.

Therefore, fewer and fewer people came to learn martial arts.

Without new people joining, it would definitely affect their development.

Just like this time, a martial artist with less than 200-300 years of history dared to challenge them. He had truly disgraced his ancestors.

If he could hang onto the coattails of this Transcendent big shot, things would be different.

A few minutes later,

The two youths carefully carried a tea set in.

Gu Hongtao's tea set was expensive. It was one of his treasures.

The tea tray was made from a thousand-year-old yellow rosewood, while the teacups and teapots were made from superior purple sand. A famous expert made them.

A single teacup costs almost a million.

The teapot was even more expensive.

This tea set was worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

Gu Hongtao couldn't even remember the last time he took out this tea set. It was that precious to him.

His goal was to cozy up to Wang Zhixing.

Wang Zhixing naturally did not know what he was thinking.

He only wanted to see his son and give him a surprise.

In the main hall.

After the tea set was brought over, Gu Hongtao instructed the two youths to boil some water. Then, he respectfully said to Wang Zhixing, “Senior, please wait for a moment. I'll go get some tea leaves.”

Wang Zhixing paid him no mind and casually said, “Sure, go!”

“Senior, I'll be back soon.” Gu Hongtao walked to the door and then bowed to Wang Zhixing again before leaving.

Wang Zhixing felt very helpless. The other party's excessive enthusiasm was a little unbearable.

Two to three minutes later, Gu Hongtao returned.

“Senior, I'm sorry to keep you waiting.” Gu Hongtao was still very respectful as he bowed again and again.

Wang Zhixing was speechless, but he could not express it. He could only respond with a smile and a nod.

A few minutes later, the water was boiling.

Gu Hongtao showed off his temaking skills.

His movements were smooth like flowing water, and he had the demeanor of a master.

But to Wang Zhixing, no matter how good the tea was, it was no different from ordinary plain water.

After brewing the tea,

Gu Hongtao immediately passed a cup to Wang Zhixing with both hands. “Senior, please have some tea!”

Wang Zhixing nodded and picked up the teacup to smell it. It was indeed quite fragrant.

He took a small sip. It seemed to taste slightly better than boiling water.

Seeing that Wang Zhixing's expression did not change, Gu Hongtao felt a knot in his heart and became extremely nervous.

“Um… Senior, is it not to your liking?”

Gu Hongtao felt uneasy, afraid that Wang Zhixing would be displeased.

Wang Zhixing put down his teacup and said coolly, “It's fine.”

He was speaking the truth.

After Gu Hongtao heard that, he felt slightly better. However, he was a little disappointed that he did not please Wang Zhixing.

At this moment, Wang Zhixing said, “It's been so long, they should be done!'

Gu Hongtao immediately said, “Senior, I'll go and take a look now.”

“There's no need to go through so much trouble.” Wang Zhixing stood up. “I'll go by myself!”

“Senior, this is your first time here. You're not familiar with the way. Let me bring you there!” Gu Hongtao said with a bow.

Wang Zhixing thought it over, then said, “Alright!”

He picked up the box and followed Gu Hongtao out.

Meanwhile…

Wang Jiajun and Gu Zhengqi's conversation was coming to an end.

This conversation helped Wang Jiajun a lot. He had cleared up many of the things he was confused about.

His intuition told him that the case would be solved soon.

“Master Gu, I have nothing else to ask. Thank you for answering so many of my questions.” Wang Jiajun stood up and wanted to shake his hand to express his gratitude.

Gu Zhengqi also stood up and shook his hand.

Then, he sighed and said, “I watched Di Tai grow up. Although we are not related by blood, it's not an exaggeration to say that we are like father and son.

“But as his master, I could not help him. It's really… really…”

Tears welled up in Gu Zhengqi's eyes.

Wang Jiajun understood his feelings and comforted him, “Master Gu, my condolences.”

“I guarantee that none of those who are hiding in the dark can escape. They will eventually be severely punished by the law.”

Wang Jiajun's gaze was firm. This was his duty as a police officer.

Gu Zhengqi wiped his eyes and said, “Officer Wang, it's getting dark.

“At night, it will be even more difficult to take the mountain paths. Let me send you down the mountain!”

Wang Jiajun didn't refuse.

As a police officer, he had interacted with all kinds of people. With just a few sentences or actions, he could determine the true character of a person.

Gu Zhengqi's had a good character. That was why he agreed.

Thus, the two of them left the pavilion.

There was a cobblestone path outside the pavilion.

This was the only way to the pavilion.

The two of them slowly walked forward.

At this moment, two people suddenly walked over.

One stood straight while the other was bowing respectfully.

Wang Jiajun froze in shock when he saw the two of them.

“Dad?”

Gu Zhengqi was also startled.
