"Uncle, I'm tired."
Gu Ruoyun yawned as if she did not wish to hear whatever else Dongfang Shaoze was trying to say.
Dongfang Shaoze tried to continue but upon seeing Gu Ruoyun's tired pallor, he sighed, "Yun'er, someday you'll understand him... However, regardless what your relationship with the Dongfang Family is, you will always be my niece."
Gu Ruoyun only smiled and said nothing more. Her fresh and beautiful face now held a gentle light.
...
Moonlight shone through the gentle brush of willow trees.
The young girl was dressed in green robes that fluttered gently in the night breeze. She stood in front of the window, her thoughts unclear. A familiar presence appeared from behind her and her heart could not help but feel calmer.
"Xiao Ye, do you have relatives?"
Qianbei Ye wrinkled his brows and shook his head. Then he remembered that Gu Ruoyun might not have been able to see his actions and said, "I don't know, perhaps... Not."
