Ji Gao lowered his eyes. The pain in his leg came in waves, but he did not even dare to reach out and rub it.
"I know." Ji Gao said in a hoarse voice, "It is… because of Huang Tu and Star Brilliance."
When Old Master Ji heard this, he retracted his gaze from the garden and turned to look at Ji Gao, who was sitting not far away.
He grunted, and the sound seemed to come from deep within his nostrils, with a thick note of disdain.
"Previously, you promised me that nothing would go wrong this time." Old Master Ji paused and looked at Ji Gao with a hint of disappointment. "But look at what you've done. It's fine if you didn't teach Gu Xiao a lesson, but Gu Xiao has benefited instead!"
He had never done such a thankless task in his life!
Back then, in order to teach Gu Xiao a lesson, he had given Ji Gao a lot of money. He had even given him a few favors that others had owed him. However, this outcome was really too ugly.
