Then who are you interested in? The corner of Zixies lips lifted as he faintly smiled, Qianbei Ye? Ive told you before, that fellow isnt a good person. You should stay away from him.

Zixie, Gu Ruoyuns smile disappeared bit by bit; her pretty face was shrouded by the afterglow of the setting sun, I havent known Xiao Ye for very long, but Im the first person hes met. Right now, he has already lost all of his memories. No matter what wrongs he committed in the past, the current him no longer remembers them.

It doesnt matter if he was a god or a devil. Even if he just casually ended a persons life, that was also for the sake of protecting me. I believe his intentions in protecting me are pure. This is because Im the only one he knows here! Thats right, I dont know enough about him; I dont know his past, and I dont even know what kind of pain and betrayal hes been through! However, this does not mean that Ill never trust him. Whether its Xiao Ye, you, or Luo Yin, or even my brother that I havent met yet if any of you are in danger, I wont sit by and watch.

Perhaps the past Qianbei Ye had made gargantuan mistakes, but the present him was just an innocent child in her eyes. Furthermore, it was a fact that his memories had been sealed. Someone who had lost all his memories would naturally view the first person they met as their mother.

It was precisely because Xiao Ye did not have any memories that Gu Ruoyun would trust him so. Otherwise, she absolutely would not have gotten so close to this man

Zixie, I wasnt able to protect my mother in the past, and I wasnt even able to protect the little brother that I considered as precious as my own life. In this life, Im not going to make the same mistake. Its because Ive lost those who were precious to me before that Im going to treasure the people around me even more now.

The girl raised her head, and that delicate face that still held traces of her childhood now carried the radiance of her resolution.

That resolution seemed to have touched Zixies heart, because a hint of a smile appeared in his pupils. Just as he was about to speak, a wave of cold flashed through his eyes.

Someones coming.

Whoosh!

Right after he finished saying so, he turned into a burst of purple light and disappeared from the courtyard

Gu Ruoyuns brows raised slightly, and turning her head to look, she saw Elder Yu striding towards her with quick steps.

Eldest Miss, Leng Yanfeng is here. He mentioned that he wants to see you specifically by name, you see

Leng Yanfeng? Gu Ruoyun stared blankly for a moment, Azure Dragon Countrys crown prince? Weapon Refining Sects disciple? What does he want with me?

This servant isnt sure, Elder Yu shook his head, Eldest Miss, are you going to meet him? If youre not willing, then Ill turn him away now.

No need, Gu Ruoyun sneered, I want to see what Leng Yanfeng has come looking for! I dont have a single connection with him; what is he doing here, coming to find me?

At this moment, within the medicine store of Hundred Herb Hall, Leng Yanfeng picked up the teacup in his hands and sipped, his expression as cold and severe as an icy mountain. Even when he saw Elder Yu leading Gu Ruoyun in, nothing changed in those cold eyes.

Im just a lowly unknown person. I wonder what business Your Highness has, coming down to Hundred Herb Hall to look for me? Or could it be that Your Highness was too thirsty and there wasnt any good tea in your manor, so youre just using your visit as an excuse to get a good cup of tea to drink?

Everyone knew that the tea served at Hundred Herb Hall was a rare medicinal tea. If he was a normal person, Leng Yanfeng would have turned angry out of shame from Gu Ruoyuns provocation. However, his expression did not change at all; that handsome face of his remained stone-cold.
