Deep down, Gigidetermined that Darryl and Preston were putting on a show together.
'At the North Sea Galaxy, Darryl's attempt to defile me at midnight failed. However, he was afraid to return to the Pure Yang Division as I might take revenge, and so, on his way back, he found Mister Nolan to be his bodyguard.
'Plus, Darryl even asked Mister Nolan to pretend to be his disciple to give others an impression that he has high attainments in the art of swordsmanship. Of course, that was just to scare me off.
'Right… It must be like that.'
As Gigi pondered, she yelled at Darryl again, "Darryl, if you're a man, then come and fight with me. Stop being a coward, using others as an excuse."
Immediately, Gigi picked up the sword on the ground as her eyes fumed with rage.
'Er…'
At that moment, Darryl felt helpless. "Gigi, I've explained countless times about the incident at the North Sea Galaxy. It was Vincent who attempted to defile you, not me. Why won't you believe me?"
Then, he pointed at Preston. "Plus, he's really my disciple. There's no need for me to lie to you."
As Darryl spoke, he felt frustrated.
'Gigi is so stubborn!'
Immediately, Preston also nodded gratefully and confirmed with Gigi.
"That's right. Miss, my Master is right. I'm indeed his disciple. In fact, he didn't want to take me in as his disciple initially. It was after I pestered him, and only he agreed to it. So… if you're asking for a sword fight, I advise you to give up. If you couldn't beat me, how will you beat him?"
Gigi felt confused as she noticed them speaking seriously.
'Could… Could Mister Nolan really be Darryl's disciple?'
Darryl stood there with a half-smile and a cynical look. Suddenly, Gigi became angry and scoffed, "I don't care what your relationship is. You must spar with me today."
'This is a matter of my innocence, and I must avenge myself.'
Then, Gigi looked at Preston and added impolitely, "Also, this is between Darryl and me. Stop interfering."
'Er…'
