At the Grand Lord's mansion.
Just as Gu Ruoyun was conversing with Grand Lord Hong Lian and his wife, a man dressed in a guard's uniform led a young girl towards them.
"Grand Lord, this is my younger sister, Lin Xue. I've brought her here to pay my respects to you."
The man's voice interrupted their conversation. The Grand Lord furrowed his brows and turned towards the voice. When he saw who it was, his expression softened. "Lin Yang, since she's your younger sister, you should bring her around the Territory to have some fun. If you don't have enough money, you can transfer some from the Grand Lord's mansion."
"Thank you, Grand Lord."
Lin Yang joined his fists respectfully but a sense of exasperation flashed in his eyes. The better the Grand Lord was treating him, the more guilty he felt.
"Grand Lord."
Lin Xue did not think too much about it and smiled charmingly. "Xue 'er thanks you for your kindness, Grand Lord."
Grand Lord Hong Lian had only said those words out of admiration for Lin Yang. However, in Lin Xue's ears, it had turned into the Grand Lord's kindness towards her and she had even addressed herself as Xue 'er.
"Alright, you may all leave."
Grand Lord Hong Lian furrowed his brows and did not look at Lin Xue at all. After he had spoken, his eyes turned towards Dongfang Yu.
"Xue 'er!"
When Lin Yang noticed that Lin Xue's eyes were glued to Grand Lord Hong Lian, he was afraid that she would notice something and quickly tried to pull her away.
Unfortunately, Lin Xue has always been willful so how could she possibly listen to Lin Yang's words? She raised the cup in her hand and walked towards Gu Ruoyun.
"Eldest Lady, I've offended you on the streets today. Xue 'er shouldn't have had the wild idea of buying your spiritual beast! However, Eldest Lady, you've done the right thing by asking them to hit me. Xue 'er sincerely apologizes to you once again! "
The young girl stared at Gu Ruoyun who was sitting next to Grand Lord Hong Lian. The space between her brows was filled with arrogance as if she did not place any importance on Gu Ruoyun.
Gu Ruoyun's words revealed her innocence and sensibility, causing Gu Ruoyun to look as if she was in the right and did not want to forgive her.
Hadn't I taken a liking to her spiritual beast? In the end, she had actually allowed that silver-haired man to attack me? How could she, Lin Xue, swallow such a loss?
Upon hearing Lin Xue's words, Grand Lord Hong Lian, who had been conversing with Dongfang Yu, finally raised his head and looked at the beautiful and young face before him.
"You just said that Yun 'er hit you?"
When the young girl noticed that she had attracted the Grand Lord Hong Lian's attention, her heart leaped with joy and she quickly said, "Grand Lord, you can't blame the Eldest Lady for this. It was Xue'er's fault. Please don't blame the Eldest Lady, Grand Lord."
"Which eye of yours saw me blaming Yun 'er?" Grand Lord Hong Lian raised his domineering brow as a stern light flashed in his arrogant, black eyes. "I'm just curious as to who had given you the courage to distort the truth in front of me?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Yang and spoke in a harsh tone, "Lin Yang, I really admired you in the past and had the intention to nurture you. However, you have such a sister. You really disappoint me!"
Lin Yang's face instantly turned pale. He knows that he has no chance in the Red Lotus Territory this time! Based on what his sister had done, the Grand Lord would no longer care about him.
"Grand Lord, I know my mistake."
Lin Yang lowered his head and hurriedly apologized. He then tugged the young girl's arm and looked anxious, "Xue 'er, don't say anymore. Come with me!"
