After half a year, Gu Xiaojiang had grown taller and his demeanor had become much steadier. Wearing the same blue robe as before, he carried himself with an aura far more outstanding compared to the first time Gu Sheng met him.
Over this period, Gu Xiaojiang had matured significantly.
"What a rare guest."
Gu Sheng laughed heartily as Gu Xiaojiang turned toward him, also laughing. Raising the wine jug in his hand, he shook his head and sighed:
"Rare guest? Hardly. I'm just a man without autonomy. Today, being the year's end, I was allowed one day of rest. The moment I was done with my duties, I came straight to find you. Tonight, we won't leave until we're drunk!"
As he spoke, his face lit up with a cheerful smile.
These past months of rigorous training had truly worn him out.
