Liu Qinyue's voice was gentle, her smile sweet, as she kindly attended to the needs of Baili Hongzhuang and Xia Zhiqing.
Baili Hongzhuang waved her hand and said, "The food and drinks here are already plentiful, there's no need to order more."
"Baili Hongzhuang, speaking of which, I hope you don't take to heart the misunderstanding between Gong Shaoqing and me in the past," Dongfang Yu's face showed a teasing expression. Looking back now, the situation was truly amusing.
Baili Hongzhuang naturally understood what Dongfang Yu was referring to. She smiled and said, "I understand. With Senior Dongfang's charm, such misunderstandings probably happen frequently. I never took it to heart."
Listening to the conversation between Dongfang Yu and Baili Hongzhuang, a hint of curiosity appeared in Liu Qinyue's eyes. "What interesting thing happened before?"
Seeing Liu Qinyue's curious expression, Dongfang Yu smiled and recounted the previous incident. Both Liu Qinyue and Xia Zhiqing couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Haha, with our looks, Hongzhuang, there's no need for us to tail along," Xia Zhiqing said, smiling at Baili Hongzhuang.
Dongfang Yu nodded slightly. Baili Hongzhuang's appearance was so outstanding that she must have no shortage of admirers in her daily life.
He had already discussed it with Gong Shaoqing earlier, but Gong Shaoqing didn't believe him. This time, Gong Shaoqing finally made the wrong judgment.
Gong Shaoqing's face turned cold. "Stupid woman, it's no surprise you'd do something like that."
Hearing Gong Shaoqing addressing her again, Baili Hongzhuang narrowed her eyes. She knew that encountering this guy would definitely ruin her appetite.
"Hey, you idiot, what gives you the right to call me stupid?"
Baili Hongzhuang raised her eyebrows and glanced at Gong Shaoqing. He had used these exact words the first time he spoke to her.
She, Baili Hongzhuang, had lived for so long and had been called all sorts of names, even the harshest ones, but no one had ever called her stupid.
"Who are you calling an idiot?" Gong Shaoqing coldly replied, his already icy face seeming to freeze over even more.
Both Liu Qinyue and Dongfang Yu were stunned. They hadn't expected the friendly conversation to turn into this. Gong Shaoqing seemed to be getting angry over such a trivial matter.
However, Baili Hongzhuang didn't care at all and responded, "Other than you, there's no one else in this room who's an idiot."
"Slap!" Gong Shaoqing slapped the table and stood up. "Stupid woman, how dare you call me an idiot?"
Baili Hongzhuang stood up without backing down. "You dared to call me a stupid woman, so why wouldn't I dare to call you an idiot?"
"Do you know that you're the first person to call me an idiot?" Gong Shaoqing's eyes flickered with a cold light, his voice as icy as ever.
"And you're the first person to call me stupid!"
"We're all friends, let's talk nicely. There's no need to ruin our relationship over such a small matter," Dongfang Yu quickly stepped in to mediate, while secretly amazed by Baili Hongzhuang's performance.
He hadn't expected that after encountering the cold Gong Shaoqing, Baili Hongzhuang would dare to fearlessly challenge him like this.
Young cultivators all had a certain amount of pride, but in the Canglan Academy, other than Baili Hongzhuang, there probably wasn't anyone else who dared to challenge Gong Shaoqing like this.
Gong Shaoqing coldly stared at Baili Hongzhuang, and Baili Hongzhuang met his gaze without backing down. Although they didn't continue their confrontation, their attitudes had already made everything clear.
Xia Zhiqing remained silent, unable to understand what had happened. The situation had turned into this without her knowing.
If one were to say they were opponents, based on the current situation, it didn't seem like it.
