Chapter 157
Ah Zhao is pleased to hear that from the Gu Hao .
The male lead is both sensible and cool .
Perfect .
Before all their dishes are served, two young practitioners come in .
Both of them are handsome and looks proud, who sit right next to Ah Zhao and Gu Hao .
Gu Hao looks at them, not turning a hair and writes down the character “Gu” on the table with the tip of his fingertip .
“The Gu Clan?” Ah Zhao's cold voice rises up beside him .
Gu Hao looks sideways . Finding the two lads haven't heard her, he realizes that Senior Zhao must have used a special approach to talk to him .
He nods .
Then Ah Zhao doesn’t talk anymore . They enjoy the dishes leisurely .
What Gu Hao doesn’t know is that Ah Zhao is thinking about him while not talking .
Put it more specifically, she is thinking about that half palm and slender fingers he showed when he was writing on the table .
He wears a pitch-black cloak while his hands are fair, not the kind of cream-like fairness, more of a jade-like fairness, cold but delicate .
Fairness against darkness gives birth to an extreme sense of beauty .
Ah Zhao likes all kinds of beautiful stuff, so she is lost in her thought in an instant .
By now, those two who are sitting beside them start to talk below their breaths:
“I’ve heard that Young Lady of Feng Family is going to come to our clan tomorrow . ”

"Young Lady of Feng Family?"
“Yes, the one who is engaged with Young Master Gu Hao . ”
“Huh, young master . He has been gone for two years . Perhaps, he is already dead at some corner . ”
“I've heard from my father that Feng Family comes to break off the engagement . ”
“Our leader has gone into seclusion for two years . I’ve heard he wanted to ascend to a higher level . I wonder if he’ll show up this time . ”
“ . . . ”
Those two disciples have lowered their voices intentionally . But not only Ah Zhao but also Gu Hao is higher than them in terms of kung fu level so they’ve heard them loud and clear .
When Ah Zhao heard that Feng Family is going to break off the engagement, she observes Gu Hao carefully .
Gu Hao isn't shocked at all . He even picks up some Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish, tasting it and remarks:

“This one’s good . ”
That night, they stay at the same inn .
The second day is a fine day without even a trace of wind .
Ah Zhao and Gu Hao head directly to Gu Manor .
The Gu Manor looks more ostentatious and extravagant than usual with the number of its guards doubled .
Obviously, the Gu Clan takes that Young Lady of Feng Family very seriously .
“Stop! Who are you?” Seeing two strangers in cloaks, a guard takes a step forward and scolds .
Ah Zhao doesn’t move . Gu Hao walks forward and takes off his cloak .

“It's me, Gu Hao . ”
Seeing him, those guards stop for a second, not because of his identity, but for his looks .
Now that Gu Hao has come of age, his appearance has shown all the advantages of the bloodline of ancient phoenix . Each one of his facial features is so delicate in the way that it is difficult to tell whether it belongs to a male or female . Combined together, there's no trace of a female left on him which gives him a handsome and domineering appearance .
The guard who scolds them blushes . After Gu Hao left the Gu Clan, those guards have changed several times thus he doesn’t know Gu Hao at all .
He asks politely: “Master, please wait for a second . I’ll inform the steward to come and fetch you . ”
After he has said that, he leaves in a hurry .
Ah Zhao suddenly laughs softly .
Gu Hao tilts his head: “Senior one, what makes you so happy?”
Ah Zhao says with all seriousness: “That young man is bewitched by your beauty . Isn't that funny?”
