<h4>Chapter 1038: Chapter 1038 The Shameless Trio</h4>


    Lv Suhua was anxious after hearing this and immediately said, "How could that be? You can’t just leave like this. Weren’t you earlier..."


    Before Lv Suhua could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Ma Tao, "Miss Gu saved our lives earlier. If it weren’t for Miss Gu, we would have died at the hands of that woman, Mo Qingsnow."


    Ma Tao mentioned Gu Zhiqi saving them twice in a row, and while Lv Suhua didn’t understand his meaning, Jin Xian did.


    As soon as Ma Tao finished speaking, Jin Xian chimed in, "That’s right, Miss Gu saved us, and we haven’t thanked her in person yet. So we want to host and invite Miss Gu for a meal."


    Jin Xian’s words fit Ma Tao’s intentions perfectly. Ma Tao nced at Jin Xian with a look of approval.


    After receiving Ma Tao’s gaze, Jin Xian continued to look at Gu Zhiqi and said, "Miss Gu, is that okay?"


    After hearing the two, Gu Zhiqi remained indifferent andzily replied, "Sorry, no time."


    None of the three expected Gu Zhiqi to respond this way, and for a moment, they were all stunned.


    Gu Zhiqi didn’t care about their expressions and raised her hand to close the door.


    Before the door closed, it was stopped.


    Lv Suhua held the door, looking intently at Gu Zhiqi, "If there’s no time for a meal, can we ask Miss Gu a few questions about alchemy?"


    Lv Suhua’s words made Gu Zhiqi understand the trio’s true intentions.


    She didn’t close the door, slightly raised her eyebrows, ced one hand on the door, and looked at the threezily, saying, "Sorry, no time."


    Although the previous reply waszy and indifferent, it was still somewhat polite. This time, it was nothing but pure perfunctory.


    Ma Tao and the others all detected the perfunctory nature of the response.


    They felt a touch of anger but couldn’t show it. Lv Suhua, thick-skinned, continued, "Then when does Miss Gu have time? We’lle to find Miss Gu when you’re free."


    Gu Zhiqi: "Never have time."


    The meaning of refusal was too obvious. Ma Tao and Jin Xian found it hard to endure.


    Lv Suhua was thick-skinned, and even after being rejected, her expression didn’t change, continuing to ask shamelessly, "Miss Gu, do you have any opinions on us? Did Minister Yue say something in front of you?"


    Lv Suhua saw that Gu Zhiqi wasn’t fond of the three, thinking it might be because ofst time, so she exined, "Thest time with the antidote, I really didn’t mean to not go. It was just that I was genuinely not feeling well."


    "Miss Gu, you were incredible. Most of the people following you in alchemy that day advanced." Lv Suhua praised Gu Zhiqi and continued, "I really envy those people."


    "After finding out they advanced, I came to find Miss Gu, but you had already left. I thought I would never see you again, and I didn’t expect you’de to the Medical Alliance again."


    "Miss Gu, I really like alchemy, but I’ve been stuck at the fourth-order middle stage for years. I really have no choice but toe to Miss Gu."


    "Miss Gu, could you teach me alchemy?"


    Upon hearing Lv Suhua’s words, both Jin Xian and Ma Tao’s expressions turned ugly.


    Lv Suhua could use illness as an excuse for not going, but they couldn’t.


    Previously, they were the ones who personally pushed away the opportunity for advancement delivered to them.


    However, since Lv Suhua brought up that night, Jin Xian and Ma Tao couldn’t y dumb.


    Jin Xian forced herself to speak, "Besides thanking you, we also want to apologize. There were many offensesst time, and we ask for Miss Gu’s forgiveness."
