Chapter 127: Yet He Chose the Toughest Profession

Gu Xiaoxi searched around the room and found them in the clothes she used to wear.

The weather in the Imperial Capital wasn't very cold, but it still required layering up.

Gu Xiaoxi changed her clothes and quietly walked downstairs.

The servants were busy in the room, and when they saw her, they said politely, "Miss Gu, the young master has left. He said he'll be back in half an hour. Please wait for a moment."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded.

She waited in the living room for a while.

Half an hour later, she saw Quan Shaoqing walk in through the door.

She quickly stood up, but remained silent without saying a word.

Quan Shaoqing entered, glanced at the clothes Gu Xiaoxi was wearing—a black shirt with long pants, which had a bit of flair.

It was her usual style, only now her head was bowed, a look that was at odds with her usual carefree demeanor.

"Are you ready?" Quan Shaoqing stepped forward, standing in front of her. His handsome features bore an indescribable heaviness.
