Gu Qing Shan sensed it and found that the spirit energy inside his Dantian had indeed grown a bit stronger.
The military bow in his hand also seems to have become lighter. This is an illusion brought about by the increase in his strength.
Gu Qing Shan nodded in satisfaction, glancing at the hourglass on the UI.
The sand inside the hourglass is emptied.
Following that, a line of text quickly appeared in the middle of the UI.
[User Gu Qing Shan has stayed in the other world for 24 hours, returning to the real world]
[All equipment stored in the Inventory Bag, can be taken out again when needed]
[Begin return]
A bit of dizziness.
Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes, found himself standing on a soft and expensive carpet. He was kneeling on one knee, facing the beautiful girl in front of him.
The interior of the auditorium was decorated lavishly, like a social gathering place for the upper class.
The only thing that didn't fit in was the soothing and soothing dance music, mixed with the loud cheers and applause.
"Be together, be together"
"Say yes"
"Brat, hurry up and say it!"
Voices came one after another.
Someone patted Gu Qing Shan's shoulder from behind, saying: "Qing Shan, do your best, be bold and say what's in your heart!"
Gu Qing Shan turned around to look.
It's Zhang Ye, his high school friend.
Gu Qing Shan looked around, his eyes finally stopped on the girl in front of him.
Sure enough, she looks good no matter what she wears, even if she doesn't wear any jewelry and only wears a plain white dress, she's still easily recognizable among the crowd of girls.
Su Cher.
The goddess of Chang Ning County's aristocratic private high school.
One of the 9 Great Houses of the Federation, the beloved daughter of the Su family.
Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes, then opened them again.
The girl in front of him is still there.
I really did transmigrate back to this place.
Back to this unforgettable moment.
"Su Cher, Gu Qing Shan has something to say to you!"
"That's right, he's been preparing for a long time, wanting to say what's in his heart to you"
"Gu Qing Shan, just say it, we're all here to bear witness"
In the crowd, there were people incessantly jeering.
Seeing that Gu Qing Shan was still silent, Su Cher finally spoke.
"Gu Qing Shan, what are you trying to say?"
As soon as the goddess spoke, everyone quietened down.
Everyone wanted to see whether or not Gu Qing Shan was really going to confess his love at the prom today, just like the rumors said.
Gu Qing Shan suppressed the billowing waves in her heart and smiled. She stood up and said, "Su Cher, I sincerely hope that you can promise me one thing."
"What is it?" The girl's limpid eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
Gu Qing Shan said seriously, "Can you promise me that you will visit my barbecue stall tomorrow night and taste my barbecue?"
Su Cher was stunned.
The people who had been heckling were stunned.
The onlookers were dumbfounded.
"Barbecue? Just barbecue? There's nothing else? "Su Xue Er thought she heard wrong.
"Of course, the two things I'm best at are Mech piloting and cooking" Gu Qing Shan shrugged, "do you want to try my cooking?"
Su Cher opened her eyes wide, looked around the crowd and said: "But your good friend Zhang Ye said that you're going to — — -"
Gu Qing Shan cut her off: "I didn't say anything to him"
"Is that so? So this wasn't your idea after all "Su Xue Er seemed to have sighed in relief and even smiled.
At this point, a man jumped out from the crowd and hurriedly asked: "Qing Shan, didn't you tell me that you're going to confess to Su Cher today?"
The crowd was in an uproar.
Gu Qing Shan turned around and coldly glared at him.
This man was the one who patted his shoulder just now, his best friend, Zhang Ye.
Zhang Ye and Gu Qing Shan were the same, both were born poor, but with their excellent grades, they were admitted to this top high school.
During their 3 years in high school, the two of them formed a deep friendship.
At first, Gu Qing Shan had thought that the other party was a good brother of his.
Who knew, at the prom today, Zhang Ye put a drug in his soup and tricked him into drinking it.
But in the process of confessing to Su Cher, the drug took effect and made him do something shameless to Su Cher in front of everyone.
In the end, it was Su Cher's guards and a group of Student Council members who managed to hold Gu Qing Shan down.
This incident shook the entire school.
Gu Qing Shan's grades were good, he was talented and had a kind personality, so Su Cher took a liking to him and they became good friends.
After this incident, Su Cher was completely disappointed in him, slapped him in front of everyone and left in tears.
After that, Su family was furious, threatening to take Gu Qing Shan's life. The school didn't hesitate to fire him, not even giving him a chance to take the college entrance exam.
In the end, it was Su Cher who begged for three days that the head of Su family spared Gu Qing Shan's life.
After all, Su family's head is the one in charge of the entire Chang Ning county, and in the entire Federation, there are only 9 Lords.
From then on, Gu Qing Shan was mocked and looked down on, no one respected him.
The technology company that he was working for, immediately fired him.
He went everywhere to study, but none of the schools dared to accept him. He went to work to earn money, but couldn't even find a part-time job. In the end, he almost starved to death in the slums.
And all of this, was thanks to his good friend, Zhang Ye.
Gu Qing Shan struggled in despair and confusion, only when the other world and reality connected, did he slowly get a chance to turn things around.
But throughout his life, there were countless nightmares. When Gu Qing Shan thought about what happened that day, he would clench his teeth so hard that they'd break.
Gu Qing Shan also reflected on it.
Su Cher is the daughter of heaven from one of the 9 great families of the Federation, to be able to befriend a poor classmate like him, she already thinks very highly of him.
Before he has any power, he really shouldn't have thought of taking their relationship any further.
That would only make things difficult for Su Cher, and also put Gu Qing Shan in a dangerous situation.
It's funny that he was too young at the time, he had too many unrealistic expectations, and was constantly tricked by Zhang Ye, constantly instilling the idea that "Su Cher likes you".
That's why he confessed at the graduation party.
Fortunately, in this life, Gu Qing Shan won't make the same mistake.
In front of everyone, Gu Qing Shan looked at Zhang Ye and whispered: "You're mistaken, the one I really like is Xie Shuang Yan"
The crowd burst into laughter, even Su Xue Er couldn't help but chuckle a bit.
Xie Shuang Yan is the lead singer of the world's most popular girl group.
Whether it's the Northern Kingdom of St. Orlank, or the vast Fuxi Republic, or even the Southern Freedom Federation, countless men, women, old and young have fallen under Xie Shuang Yan's skirt.
There are too many people in this world who like Xie Shuang Yan, so even Su Cher doesn't mind Gu Qing Shan's words.
There were even a few otakus in the crowd who shouted: "Gu Qing Shan, do you want to join Xie Shuang Yan's fan club!?"
Zhang Ye's face kept changing, his heart slowly sank.
He didn't think Gu Qing Shan would be able to cover it up so easily.
No, I can't let him go today, after all, there won't be another chance like this.
Gu Qing Shan is his last chance to move up.
Zhang Ye gritted his teeth and walked forward, whispering in Gu Qing Shan's ear: "Gu Qing Shan, your good days are over"
Saying so, he slammed his palm on Gu Qing Shan's shoulder.
A slight tingling sensation.
It's a needle hidden in Zhang Ye's hand.
Gu Qing Shan didn't resist and simply stared at the other party until he was done.
"Why?" Gu Qing Shan calmly asked.
"Why what?" Zhang Ye's face showed a sense of relief.
The needle's dosage is even heavier, in just one more minute, Gu Qing Shan won't be able to suppress her body's instincts.
"Why are you doing this to me? If I remember correctly, we're friends "Gu Qing Shan said.
Zhang Ye couldn't help but lower his gaze, muttering: "Don't blame me, poor people in this world can only live a better life if they take the chance"
Saying so, he suddenly pushed Gu Qing Shan towards Su Cher.
Gu Qing Shan's body heat up, her breathing became heavier and heavier as she staggered back to Su Cher's side.
The drug is starting to take effect.
Gu Qing Shan's heart turned cold.
He suddenly remembered that Su Xue Er once mentioned Zhang Ye in a seemingly unintentional manner.
"Qing Shan ge, Zhang Ye doesn't look at people the same way as you do"
Gu Qing Shan silently shook her head.
The amount of trust she once had was the same amount of disappointment.
Let's stop here.
With a single thought, Gu Qing Shan released spirit energy from her Dantian, suppressing the drug's effects. Her burning body also cooled down.
As a cultivator, how could a common poison harm her?
Gu Qing Shan's eyes regained clarity, calling out: "Aunty Su, come out"
A mature and charming woman and a white-haired old man appeared without a sound.
These two are Su Cher's guards.
Su Cher is the eldest daughter of the Su family, the only child of the Su family's main branch, so she's usually spoiled by the entire Su family. It's normal for her to have two guards protecting her at all times.
"What the hell are you doing?"
The mature woman glared at Gu Qing Shan.
She's always been by Su Cher's side, so she knows this kid.
She originally thought this kid was smart and had a good temperament, but she didn't think he'd actually come up with a confession ceremony today.
This kind of rash action puts a lot of pressure on Su Cher, even her guard is disappointed in Gu Qing Shan.
