Gu Ruoyun stared at the man as he left before frowning, "He is indeed Qianbei Ye. I can sense the aura from his body but I can't understand why I'm so repulsed by his touch?"
This kind of repulsion was a reflex. Even Gu Ruoyun could not understand what was going on...
Qianbei Ye sensed that the woman had not moved. He turned around and looked at Gu Ruoyun as he asked, "Yun'er, what's wrong? We should find Zuo Shangchen quickly. Once we've found Zuo Shangchen, we can leave this place. Why are you standing around here for?"
Gu Ruoyun returned to her senses and faced Qianbei Ye in his suspicion. She smiled calmly and said, "Haven't you heard of the phrase? Motherhood makes one stupid and I'm now pregnant with our child. That's why I will have the tendency to stare absentmindedly."
Qianbei Ye nodded in understanding. "I see. You'd better hurry up then."
"Alright."
Gu Ruoyun curled her lips into a small smile.
No matter how well this fellow acted, sometimes he would still give himself away...
If this had been the real Qianbei Ye, he would never have left a pregnant Gu Ruoyun behind and certainly would not prompt her this way either! A person's tone and mannerisms could be faked but the true care and concern that they show others could never be replicated.
However, what puzzled Gu Ruoyun was how the aura on this mans' body was so similar to Qianbei Ye's. If he had not given himself away at this point, she might not have noticed...
Gu Ruoyun tailed the man in front of her at the thought of this.
At the moment, she was no match for this fellow. Besides, she does not know where the real Qianbei Ye was so she could only feign ignorance and tag along behind him...
In addition, she believes that as long as she followed this fellow, she would definitely find Zuo Shangchen!
"Xiao Ye." Gu Ruoyun's eyes moved a little as she smiled gently at the man next to her. "Do you still remember the first time we had met? At the time, I had found you in a deep sleep in that secret place. You had then woken up and screamed bloody murder at me. It was a good thing that you had lost your memories and you'd even forgotten how to kill. Otherwise, I fear that I might have been killed by your hands back then."
Qianbei Ye smiled. His eyes, filled with tender light, turned towards Gu Ruoyun.
"I had not recognized you which was why I had reacted that way. However, I had regretted it later on. What? Do you want to collect that debt now?"
Gu Ruoyun's heart trembled.
In the beginning, she had only suspected that someone was masquerading as Qianbei Ye. It was only at this moment that she was convinced of her judgment.
That year, she had indeed run into Qianbei Ye who was in a deep sleep in the secret world. However, Qianbei Ye had not screamed bloody murder at her when he was awakened. Instead, he had called out to her as his wife.
Furthermore, he had stuck by her side from then on and she could not shake him off no matter how much she had tried.
Gu Ruoyun took a deep breath once she had found out everything she wanted to know. Her heart filled with absolute worry.
Since the fake Qianbei Ye has appeared next to me, where is the real Xiao Ye?
Gu Ruoyun unconsciously remembered the scene she had seen in that dream...
A man with the exact same looks as Qianbei Ye had taken a sword and pierced it through the woman in white's chest! Witnessing this scene caused her to put her heart on guard.
Otherwise, she would never have imagined that there would be another man who looks exactly like Qianbei Ye.
"Xiao Ye, do you know where Zuo Shangchen is?"
Gu Ruoyun thought for a moment and asked.
The man's face lifted up into a smile. His red eyes, however, carried a sense of deep thought. "If my guess is correct, we shall find Zuo Shangchen as long as we keep walking ahead! Yun'er, you've risked your life by coming here for Zuo Shangchen. Is it worth it?"
