Sensational! Fake Noble VS Real Genius-Chapter 1647: National Finals
After the two walked out of the first-classroom, they discovered Ling Yuanzhou was still outside, standing in front of Gu Zhiqi with a dark expression.
Seeing this, Lu Xingzhe furrowed his brows slightly and then walked through the crowd to Gu Zhiqi and Qiao Qingshu’s side.
Even though Ling Yuanzhou was staring at Gu Zhiqi, she had no intention of acknowledging him, so Lu Xingzhe, seeing this, directly ignored Ling Yuanzhou and said to Gu Zhiqi, "Brother Qi, let’s go."
Gu Zhiqi nodded, then glanced at Mo Weiran, who had a blood flower on top of his head, "What happened?"
As soon as the question was out, Lu Xingzhe began openly mocking Mo Weiran, "His brain’s got a hole; he hit it himself."
Mo Weiran: "..."
Seeing Mo Weiran not deny it, both Gu Zhiqi and Qiao Qingshu looked at Mo Weiran with a strange expression.
That look resembled someone searching for a hole in his head.
Mo Weiran: I don’t have a hole in my head!
Just then, Ling Yuanzhou, who had been thoroughly ignored, spoke up, "Gu Zhiqi."
When Ling Yuanzhou spoke, the first to look at him was not Gu Zhiqi, but Lu Xingzhe.
Regardless of whether Gu Zhiqi looked at him, Ling Yuanzhou continued, "Why did the business between the Gu Family and the Ling Family suddenly break off?"
"Did you say something to Uncle Gu?" His tone habitually carried a hint of accusation.
Gu Zhiqi didn’t react much; however Lu Xingzhe and the others furrowed their brows simultaneously.
Ling Yuanzhou’s voice wasn’t quiet, so of course Gu Zhiqi heard it, but she seemed uninterested in dealing with him and said to Lu Xingzhe, "Let’s go."
After speaking, she took the lead and walked away.
Seeing this, Ling Yuanzhou was about to step forward and catch up, but after two steps, Lu Xingzhe blocked him, "What do you want? Doesn’t Young Master Ling understand the meaning of the word ’marriage alliance’?"
"The engagement is cancelled, and you still expect the Gu Family to send business your way? Ugly but dreaming big."
"The Gu Family’s business isn’t run by Brother Qi anyway. If you have the guts, go question Uncle Gu and Brother Huaijin. To run here and question a girl, how capable of you."
Finishing, without giving Ling Yuanzhou time to respond, Lu Xingzhe quickened his pace and left.
Ling Yuanzhou stood in place, cold and sour-faced, with no intention of continuing to pursue.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, three weeks of the school term had gone by.
This must be the longest period Gu Zhiqi had stayed at school without taking a single day off.
On Sunday of the third week, March 16th, was the day of the national chemistry competition.
The national competition was not held in Sea City but in the Imperial City, so students participating in the national competition had to travel to the Imperial City the day before.
Sea City No.1 Middle School had ten students entering the national competition; among them was one first-year student, two second-year students, and the remaining seven were third-year students.
On March 15th, these ten students were personally led to the Imperial City by Teacher Mo and the principal.
Among the ten students was Gu Zhiqi.
They departed from Sea City No.1 Middle School at nine in the morning and arrived at the hotel by two in the afternoon. Upon arrival at the hotel, Gu Zhiqi planned to take a nap first.
Before sleeping, she sent a message to Su Yunling, [Brother, have the person you sent to pick me up arrive at the hotel around 3:30.]
It’s been a month since the first acupuncture session given to Little Uncle Jin and Patriarch Jin. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Having come to the Imperial City, Gu Zhiqi planned to complete the second treatment.
During last night’s phone call, upon learning that Gu Zhiqi would be in the Imperial City for an exam and would take the opportunity to give the second treatment to Little Uncle Jin and Patriarch Jin, Su Yunling agreed to send someone to pick her up and take her to the Jin Family today.
She was instructed to message him once reaching the Imperial City.
