"Uncle, I'm tired."
Gu Ruoyun yawned, clearly unwilling to listen to what Dongfang Shaoze had to say.
Dongfang Shaoze wanted to say something but when he saw Gu Ruoyun's tired expression, he sighed softly, "Yun 'er, one day, you will understand him … However, no matter what your relationship with the Dongfang family is, you will always be my niece."
Gu Ruoyun smiled and did not say anything else. However, her delicate and pretty features were shrouded in a gentle light.
...
The moon was high above the willow tree.
The young girl's green robes fluttered gently in the night breeze. She stood in front of the window with a calm expression on her face. No one could tell what she was thinking. At this moment, a familiar aura came from behind her, causing her heart to involuntarily calm down.
"Xiao Ye, do you have any relatives?"
Qianbei Ye frowned and shook his head. He then remembered that Gu Ruoyun could not see his movements and replied, "I don't know, maybe... No."
"Xiao Ye, do you know that I am a person with a past life?" Gu Ruoyun raised her head and stared at the moonlight outside the window. It was as if she was looking at the peak of the snowy mountain and the massacre, "In my past life, I had a kind grandfather, a kind mother and a cute little brother. However, my father was the scum of scum! For the sake of obtaining the position of Young Master of the Xia family, he did not hesitate to woo my mother. However, on the very night he obtained my mother, he allowed his childhood sweetheart to marry into the family! If it had not been for grandfather's favoritism towards my mother, I'm afraid... My mother would never have been able to live in the Xia family home. "
Qianbei Ye did not speak and stared quietly at Gu Ruoyun. He knew that this was the deepest secret in her heart.
Yet she was willing to share this secret with him. How much trust did she have in him?
"However, all of this changed after grandfather's death. The Xia family had a family heirloom, the Phoenix Cauldron. Legend has it that only the reincarnation of the Purple Phoenix could obtain the Phoenix Cauldron. However, on his deathbed, grandfather entrusted the Phoenix Cauldron to me. Hence, that heartless b * stard massacred my maternal grandfather's family and kidnapped my mother to threaten me to hand over the Phoenix Cauldron! In order to prevent the Phoenix Cauldron from falling into their hands, my mother chose to end her own life! "
Now that she recalled the events of her past life, Gu Ruoyun felt a heart-wrenching pain!
She would never be able to forget the scene of her grandfather's entire family being massacred. She would also never be able to forget the scene of her beloved mother being abused by that bastard and ultimately choosing to commit suicide …
Gu Ruoyun gently closed her eyes before slowly opening them again, "After Mother had passed away, I had chosen to endure humiliation and flee far away from home. I had even entrusted my only younger brother, who was also the only person I had left, to my childhood sweetheart."
When he heard the last sentence, Qianbei Ye felt very uncomfortable in his heart. His peerless face was very unsightly, and his entire body was enveloped in a layer of gloomy aura. If that person was here, he could not guarantee that he would die without a complete corpse!
Gu Ruoyun clearly did not notice the strange look on the man's face as she continued to speak, "But I never thought that he would betray me! For the Phoenix Cauldron, for the supreme position, he didn't hesitate to curry favor with that bastard. He dismembered my younger brother alive in front of me! Hahaha, Xiao Ye, do you know how I felt at that moment? Even if I die, I will drag those people to hell with me! "
Suddenly, a large and gentle hand reached out from behind her and pulled her into a tight embrace.
As she felt the warmth of the man's chest, she did not know why but her restless heart gradually calmed down.
