"Qian. Bei. Ye!" Gu Ruoyun gritted her teeth as she thought, Why has this guy become so hateful after his awakening?

"Dear wife, don't tell me that you want to refuse the bill after you've wiped your mouth and licked the plate clean?" Qianbei Ye turned and looked at Gu Ruoyun as if he had suffered a great injustice.

He now wants everyone to know that Gu Ruoyun belongs to only him alone!

Besides, once Gu Ruoyun's maternal grandfather and grandmother have both acknowledged him, he can finally be with his beloved in a just and honorable manner.

"Qianbei Ye!!!"

Gu Ruoyun viciously gnashed her teeth as she glared at him, "Wait until I get back to the room. We'll settle this then."

This statement sounded completely sinister no matter how one looked at it.

"Ahem." Master Dongfang awkwardly cleared his throat and said, "If you wish to discuss passion and love with each other, go back to your room and do it. Do whatever you like, I have no right or ability to interfere."

Actually, Master Dongfang had not put up much resistance because he was actually quite satisfied with having Qianbei Ye as a son-in-law.

This man is very powerful and would be a good match for this girl.

Besides, the girl is of age, it's about time for her to be married off. Of course, it would be best if they could decide on the matter by themselves.

Qianbei Ye was a good and obedient child. So, upon Master Dongfang's words, he immediately scooped Gu Ruoyun into his arms and hurriedly rushed out of the grand hall. When the latter had regained her senses, they had reached the inside of the Ancient Divine Pagoda.

"Qianbei Ye! How on earth had you managed to bring me here?"

Gu Ruoyun was astonished. All this while, only she and Zixie had been able to control the Ancient Divine Pagoda. She could only utilize her soul to enter and exit the Ancient Divine Pagoda. Hence, she had no idea how Qianbei Ye had managed to bring the both of them into there.

"Previously, you've fed the Hell's Lotus with your own blood. Because of this, I'm now able to enter the Ancient Divine Pagoda at will."

Qianbei Ye smiled, "Didn't you say that you would settle the bill with me after returning to your room? This Ancient Divine Pagoda can also be considered as our room. Here, you can settle the bill with me in whatever way you please."

Gu Ruoyun's face blackened, "Why did you say those things to my maternal grandfather and grandmother?"

"Yun'er."

Qianbei Ye suddenly reached out and pulled the woman into his chest. He hugged the woman's soft and gentle figure in a tight grip as he lowered his eyelids and said, "May I ask you something, are you willing to accept me? It's fine if you don't want to get married now. I can wait for you."

Gu Ruoyun shook and she smiled gently, "What do you think?"

What do you think?

These simple words contained her answer.

Qianbei Ye smiled. That smile made the colors of the world melt away and was so peerless that it takes one's breath away.

"Yun'er, I want everyone to know that you're mine."

"Xiao Ye."

Suddenly, Gu Ruoyun pushed Qianbei Ye away. Her eyes turned serious as she asked, "I'll ask you one last time, have you regained your memories?"

Qianbei Ye gently lowered his eyelids, masking the confusion and hurt in those blood-red eyes.

"Yun'er, if I regain my memories, would you leave me?"

He clenched his fist and his heart grew nervous. He's even... Lost the courage to look at the woman in front of him.

Perhaps the only thing which could make this peerless and devil-like man feel insecure or afraid were matters concerning her.

"I won't leave you," Gu Ruoyun raised her gaze and her eyes were filled with resolve, "And I don't mind any part of your past. Xiao Ye, if you've regained your memories, please let me know. Of course, if you're not ready to talk about it, I'll wait until you're ready."
