Dongfang Shaoze suddenly regretted allowing his father and Gu Ruoyun to meet. Both of their tempers were stubborn. If only one of them had been willing to give in, perhaps things would have been much more harmonious. Unfortunately, neither of them were willing to give in.
Perhaps, there was one person who could help them...
...
The morning sun rose.
In the Dongfang family's rear courtyard, Gu Ruoyun slowly pushed open the door to her room. Just then, a familiar figure entered her sight.
The man's eyes were gentle as he greeted Gu Ruoyun with a smile on his lips, "Yun'er, how did you sleep last night?"
"Not bad," Gu Ruoyun nodded, "Uncle, why have you come to see me so early in the morning?"
"Yun'er," Dongfang Shaoze paused for a moment before speaking unhurriedly, "I want to take you somewhere to meet someone. That person has always wanted to see you..."
Gu Ruoyun fell silent for a moment before replying, "That person has something to do with the Dongfang family?"
"That's right, she is indeed a member of the Dongfang family. However, I think that you'll get along very well with her."
Ever since her sister had passed away, she had lived in seclusion in the back mountains. No matter how much her father begged her, she refused to leave the mountain. Perhaps the only person in this world who could make her leave was Yun'er...
If she could see Yun'er, she would certainly be very happy.
"Alright." Gu Ruoyun raised her head to look at Dongfang Shaoze and said, "I'll go with you. As long as her temper isn't like that old man's, I won't have any conflicts with her."
Hearing this, Dongfang Shaoze laughed bitterly. This old and young pair's personalities were far too similar. If they weren't maternal grandparent and grandson, it would be impossible.
"Let's go, Yun'er. I think you'll like her very much."
Ever since Dongfang Yu of the Dongfang family had passed away ten years ago, the entire back mountains had become a forbidden area for the Dongfang family. Aside from the Master and the Young Master, anyone else who dared to set foot in the back mountains would be severely punished.
Hence, not a single soul could be seen within the perimeter of the back mountains.
At this time, in a lonely thatched cottage at the back of the mountain, a beautiful woman in blue was sitting in front of a table, elegantly sipping the steamy tea in front of her.
It had to be said that this beautiful woman was very beautiful. She had a kind of beauty that could cause the downfall of cities and countries. However, there was also a hint of purity in her beauty. It was hard to imagine that there would be a person who could fuse these two opposite temperaments together. It was even more pleasing to the eye.
Perhaps it was because she had taken good care of herself, but there were no traces of time on the beautiful woman's face. Her elegant and calm posture revealed her age. However, her white hair still revealed her true age …
"Ze 'er, you came to see your mother?"
Feeling the aura coming from the door, the beautiful woman's lips curved into a smile. She raised her eyebrows and looked out of the thatched hut with her limpid eyes.
However, when she saw the young girl standing next to Dongfang Shaoze, the beautiful woman's smile froze on her lips. She rose to her feet from her rattan chair and stared at Gu Ruoyun with tears in her eyes.
"Yu 'er, Yu' er, you've returned?"
The beautiful woman pressed her hand tightly against the table, causing it to tremble. Her gaze was fixated on the face that she had been thinking about day and night, afraid that the person before her would disappear like a phantom in the blink of an eye.
Gu Ruoyun did not speak. She stared at the beautiful woman's excited and nervous face. In that moment, her heart was moved.
It was as if Mou Dongfang was contacting her...
