After Gu Liyan finished speaking, he actually turned and left.
Watching Gu Liyan's retreating figure, Gu Yan took a deep breath and exhaled, standing there for a long time, repeating this action countless times, until Gu Liyan's figure completely disappeared—
Gu Yan turned around and saw Gu Li standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.
"What are you looking at?" Gu Yan frowned and said irritably.
Gu Li smiled. "You deliberately chased Xiao Li away, is it because... those people are getting closer?"
Upon hearing Gu Li mention "that group of people," Gu Yan's expression immediately turned cold. He glared at Gu Li and said, "It's best if you and I keep this to yourselves. Don't just casually bring it up..."
“When we treated Xiao Li, everything we saw through the artifact might have been fake. Why did you go to such lengths? You even deliberately drove Xiao Li away, making him leave Qianjue Mountain!” Gu Li said.
Gu Yan stood with her back to Gu Liyan, watching the path Gu Liyan had taken, and murmured to herself, "Now I can no longer distinguish between what is real and what is fake. I can only believe that he in this world can be happy—"
Gu Li looked at Gu Yan and asked, "Aren't you afraid that Xiao Li will hate you?"
“Hate?” Gu Yan lowered his eyes and slowly closed them.
The next second, a smile appeared on his face. "If he hated me, he would have hated me long ago..."
After parting ways with Gu Yan, Gu Liyan held Yan Moxue's hand and walked quickly down the mountain.
Gu Liyan's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word, but his pace quickened, causing Yan Muxue, who was following behind him, to stumble.
"Xiao, Xiao Li, slow down, I, I can't walk anymore—" Yan Muxue finally couldn't help but speak.
Gu Liyan was startled, then realized what was happening and stopped in her tracks. "Sorry—"
After catching her breath, Yan Muxue ran up behind Gu Liyan and looked at the raw, bloody wound on his back. She asked with concern, "Xiao Li, are you alright?"
Gu Liyan shook his head gently, looking exhausted. "I'm fine."
Yan Muxue's eyes welled up with tears, and she said indignantly, "Your father is so cruel. He always treats you so badly. It was the same last time, and it's happening again this time!"
When Gu Liyan thought of Gu Yan's sword piercing his chest, he couldn't help but shudder. But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Gu Yan was not a heartless person after hearing what Gu Yan had said to him.
“My father… did it for my own good!” Gu Liyan took a deep breath, a smile appearing on his face.
Perhaps Gu Liyan had already guessed why Gu Yan had driven her away—
Yan Muxue pouted and muttered, "He almost killed you, and you're still siding with him..."
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw Baili Huangyi and his entourage walking towards them.
Yan Muxue looked at Baili Huangyi and his group in surprise, and hurriedly tugged at Gu Liyan's sleeve, saying, "Look! It really is Lord Yan! What are they doing here?!"
Gu Liyan frowned as well, "I didn't expect them to arrive so quickly..."
When Baili Huangyi and his entourage saw Gu Liyan and Yan Muxue, and saw their appearance, Baili Huangyi hurriedly waved for the group to stop. He then dismounted and walked towards Gu Liyan and Yan Muxue with several guards.
Yan Muxue looked at Baili Huangyi, who was walking towards them, with a wary expression. When Baili Huangyi came up, he looked at Gu Liyan, whom Yan Muxue was supporting, and after looking him up and down, he asked with some surprise, "Could it be that you, you are... Young Master Mo?"
Gu Liyan smiled, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "It really is me."
Baili Huangyi stared intently at Gu Liyan's face and couldn't help but sigh, "I was so narrow-minded. I always thought that only women in the world deserved to be called stunningly beautiful. I never expected that I would see someone as perfect as Young Master Mo today!"
Baili Huangyi then suddenly realized and said, "No wonder Brother Mo didn't dare to show his true face before, he was afraid that we would feel ashamed of our inferiority!"
Gu Liyan smiled wryly and said, "Your Highness Yan is joking. There has always been the saying that beautiful women bring disaster. Ever since I was born with this body, I have been constantly worried that it will bring me trouble."
Baili Huangyi laughed heartily, "Now I finally understand why Miss Xue'er is so fond of Young Master Mo!"
Yan Muxue blushed upon hearing this and secretly glanced at Gu Liyan. His stunningly beautiful face captivated not only her but everyone else as well.
However, Yan Muxue suddenly noticed that Gu Liyan's face was covered in a fine layer of cold sweat. She was about to speak when Gu Liyan interrupted her...
Gu Liyan smiled and said, "Xue'er and I can be said to be childhood sweethearts. She had secretly fallen for me a long, long time ago. The first time I met her, I just didn't recognize her."
After saying that, he held Yan Muxue's hand tighter and tighter, which felt incredibly warm.
Upon seeing this, Baili Huangyi laughed heartily, "No wonder, no wonder Miss Xue'er has set her sights on Young Master Mo. In that case, a gentleman does not take what belongs to others, so Young Master Mo must treat Miss Xue'er well!"
"Of course it will!" Gu Liyan nodded with a smile.
When Yan Muxue heard Gu Liyan say that, her face turned red and she looked adorable. She looked up at Gu Liyan and found that his eyes were glazed over and his body swayed as if he was about to fall.
Yan Muxue rushed forward to support Gu Liyan, asking worriedly, "Xiao Li, are you alright?"
Gu Liyan steadied himself and waved to Yan Muxue, "Xue'er, I'm fine..."
Only then did Baili Huangyi notice that Gu Liyan's face was deathly pale. Upon closer inspection, he saw a bloody gash on Gu Liyan's back, still bleeding. He immediately turned around and beckoned to Wang Guozhong behind him, calling out, "Minister Wang!"
