Gu Ruoyun slowly retracted her hand and stared coldly at Lin Yang's increasingly ugly expression.
"I didn't ask you to die so you can't die!"
Under normal circumstances, Gu Ruoyun would not have used this method against Lin Yang. However, Lin Yang had helped Lin Xue to seduce her father and had violated her taboo. Hence, she had resorted to such cruelty.
Nothing was more important to her than her parents! Even if Lin Xue had not succeeded, she would not have been able to endure it.
"Father, when the time comes, send a few people to watch over them in case they try to kill themselves."
Gu Ruoyun did not spare Lin Yang another glance. She turned away and turned towards Grand Lord Hong Lian as she spoke.
"Don't worry, Yun 'er, leave this matter to me."
Grand Lord Hong Lian stared gently at Gu Ruoyun. When he turned towards the Lin siblings, his eyes were filled with a grim light. "I've warned you long ago yet you had acted as you wished. Since that's the case, don't blame me for being merciless. Guards, take them away."
"Yes! Grand Lord. "
Hearing this, the guards who had been standing next to Grand Lord Hong Lian stepped forward and took the Lin siblings, who had now become demented, away.
Once they had left, the study returned to its peaceful state. Only the shredded clothes on the ground were a testament to everything that had happened …
"Yun 'er, it's getting late. You should go back and get some rest."
Grand Lord Hong Lian turned towards Gu Ruoyun. His grim expression had turned into a gentle smile as he said, "I will take care of the rest."
Gu Ruoyun nodded and did not say anything else. She then turned around and left with Qianbei Ye. Following their departure, Grand Lord Hong Lian held Dongfang Yu in his arms and headed towards the bedchambers.
…
Gu Ruoyun stayed in the Red Lotus Territory for half a month. During this half a month, Zuo Shangchen had sent his men to deliver the last medicinal herb needed to dispel the puppet's body. However, he did not appear. This caused a bad feeling to rise in Gu Ruoyun's heart and she felt uneasy.
Furthermore, Grand Lord Hong Lian had always wanted to hand over the power of the Territory to Gu Ruoyun. However, Gu Ruoyun had rejected him. In the end, Dongfang Yu had suggested that Gu Ruoyun become the Young Grand Lord first.
As such, Gu Ruoyun did not reject him.
On this day, Dongfang Yu and Gu Ruoyun were in the middle of a conversation when a guard hurriedly rushed into the room. His face was filled with urgency as he reported anxiously, "Madam, there's news of the Young Master."
"What?"
Dongfang Yu suddenly rose to her feet. Her peerlessly beautiful face was filled with excitement as she said, "Qing Lin, what did you say? There's news of Shengxiao?"
"That's right." The guard named Qing Lin nodded. "Our men have been patrolling the vicinity of the Wen family residence. We've received accurate information that the Young Master has appeared in the Wen family residence! It's just that Young Master's condition doesn't seem too good … "
"I understand. Aobashi, you can go now."
Dongfang Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the urgency in her heart. She then turned towards Gu Ruoyun and said, "Yun 'er, we need to make a trip to the Wen family home now!"
"Alright." Gu Ruoyun nodded. "Mother, Father is not in the palace now. Wait for him to return and you can go to the Wen family home together. Xiao Ye and I will leave first."
"Be careful on your way."
Both mother and daughter were filled with excitement at the news of Gu Shengxiao. Dongfang Yu wanted to follow Gu Ruoyun to the Wen family home but she understood that she must wait for Grand Lord Hong Lian's return.
