Just as she had spoken, a clear and cold voice suddenly chimed in and rang in her ear.

“Who can’t live any longer? Who are you talking about?”

The woman’s voice was just as chilly and calm as ever with no sign of emotion, instantly drawing the everyone’s attention.

A green-robed woman was standing silently under the splendid sunlight. She was holding a soft, jade-like little boy by the hand. This little boy looked to be about two years of age. He was carrying a fluffy little beast like a ball of fur in his and stared at his surroundings with wonder and curiosity.

Even though this child was still very young, it was immediately apparent that his features bore a similarity to Qianbei Ye, especially that head of silver hair. That was Qianbei Ye’s outstanding feature.

“Yun’er?”

Grand Lord Hong Lian was shaken for a moment before he dashed towards Gu Ruoyun as if seized by madness and violently pulled her into his arms. His entire being was trembling at that moment.

“You’re back, you’ve finally returned!”

It has been three years!

She has been away from the Red Lotus Territory for three years now!

Only the heavens know how they had endured these past three years!

They had worried about Gu Ruoyun’s safety at every moment until they had been unable to have a good night’s rest for the past three years! Grand Lord Hong Lian had reacted so intensely when he had seen Gu Ruoyun because they had suppressed their feelings for the past three years!

It was to the point that ever since Gu Ruoyun had left, no sound of happiness or laughter had been heard in the Red Lotus Territory…

Dongfang Yu secretly wiped a tear from the corner of her eye and gazed tenderly at the father and daughter in front of her as she smiled silently.

Even though Gu Shengxiao did not speak or show any emotion, his grim eyes were flashing with joy. He stared unblinkingly at Gu Ruoyun and could not bear to look away.

“Maternal Grandfather, you’re hurting Mother.”

As Grand Lord Hong Lian was hugging Gu Ruoyun very tightly, a tender, childlike and soft voice rang out from the side.

Only then did he notice the little toddler who was standing by Gu Ruoyun’s leg…

“What did you just call me?” Grand Lord Hong Lian asked dazedly, in shock.

Xiao Xun’er pouted his tiny lips irritably. “You were hugging her so tightly, Mother would not feel comfortable. If you hurt Xun’er’s mother, Xun’er will never call you Maternal Grandfather again.”

This time, Grand Lord Hong Lian heard it very clearly. After he stared blankly for a moment, he lifted his hand and pulled the little child into his arms. His voice was filled with excitement, “Yun’er, is this your child? He’s my maternal grandson?”

Gu Ruoyun nodded and smiled gently, “His name is Qianbei Xun.”

The words Qianbei Xun echoed in the crowd. It also rang in Murong Qian’s ear at the same time.

She had guessed as much when she had laid eyes on Xiao Xun’er. Now, after she had heard Gu Ruoyun’s words, the rage in her eyes spilled over like flames. She scoffed coldly, “Gu Ruoyun, so you’ve finally found the nerve to show yourself? Let me tell you this, I’m now Qianbei Ye’s woman. You two, both mother and son, have been cast aside! Only I have the right to receive his love. You are only a discarded woman!”

“Yun’er.”

Grand Lord Hong Lian’s heart clenched. He was afraid that Gu Ruoyun would believe in Murong Qian’s words and quickly tried to advise her.

Unexpectedly, the woman merely turned around to look at Murong Qian indifferently and reply serenely, “Oh.”

Oh?

Murong Qina widened her eyes. Doesn’t this woman love Qianbei Ye very much? How can she remain so nonchalant after she heard this? Or is it because she could not accept this shock and has already gone mad?

That must be it!
