"Alright." The woman in white swept her cold gaze towards Gu Ruoyun again and replied icily, "Our Grand Lord had saved you but if the Grand Lord were to ask about it later on, you will say that you wanted to leave on your own. Do you understand?"
Her commanding tone made Gu Ruoyun furrow her brows but she soon relaxed and said, "I'll say it one more time. Even if you don't let me go, I won't stay."
Just as the woman in white was about to speak, an inquiring voice chimed in from outside the carriage, "Bai Yin, is that young lady awake? If she's awake, bring her to see the Grand Lord. "
Bai Yin relaxed her expression and glanced at Gu Ruoyun. Her voice was filled with warning, "Remember your words. Come with me to see the Grand Lord now. You should know what to say and what not to say."
She then turned around and stepped down from the carriage.
A group of people were sitting around a bonfire outside the carriage. Out of everyone present, the most eye-catching was the man in red. He was extremely handsome and looked very approachable. However, his eyes carried an arrogant and unruly air, as if he did not even place a god in his eyes.
If my guess is correct, this man in red should be the Grand Lord that they were talking about.
"You're awake?" The man in red looked at Gu Ruoyun and gently raised his eyebrows. He then waved at her and said, "Come and sit."
Gu Ruoyun fell silent for a moment. In the end, she walked towards the man in red and sat down next to him.
"What's your name?"
The man in red turned towards Gu Ruoyun and placed the roasted rabbit leg in front of her as he asked.
Gu Ruoyun accepted the roasted rabbit leg and thanked him before replying, "Gu Ruoyun."
"Gu Ruoyun?"
The man in red gently stroked his chin and suddenly smiled. His smile was very beautiful, like a ray of light in the dark night, illuminating the entire sky.
"That's a good name."
"What about you?" Gu Ruoyun raised her brow as she looked at the man in red. She did not know why but even though this was the first time she had met this man, he gave her a very familiar feeling.
That feeling made her want to get closer to him.
"My name? Hehe, after so many years, I've forgotten what my name is. Everyone calls me Grand Lord Hong Lian. If you don't mind, you can call me Hong Lian. What do you think? "
"Alright." Gu Ruoyun nodded and replied with a smile.
Bai Yin, who was standing next to them, watched the two chatting merrily. Her expression turned a little ugly. She took advantage of the moment when the man in red was not paying attention to her and shot her a look. Her bright eyes slowly filled with anxiety.
Gu Ruoyun composed herself and stared at the man's perfect side profile. She thought for a moment before saying, "Grand Lord Hong Lian, thank you for saving my life. However, I still have some matters to attend to so I'll take my leave first."
Hu!
Seeing that Gu Ruoyun had finally spoken, Bai Yin heaved a sigh of relief. She had been afraid that this woman would shamelessly refuse to leave after meeting the Grand Lord! Moreover, the Overlord treated her so specially. If he had her, it would be even more difficult for him to enter the Overlord's heart in the future.
"You're leaving?"
The man in red was shaken and furrowed his sharp brows, "The snowfield is very dangerous and spiritual beasts are everywhere. Besides, it's so late at night, where do you want to go? How about this, I'll send you off after I've finished my business. What do you think? "
