Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out. Just as Gu Ruoyun turned around to take a look, that person had also noticed her.
It was a handsome, tall and slim youth. He was waving a fan in his hand and a frivolous smile was plastered on his face. However, he was shocked when he saw Gu Ruoyun...
"Eh, Gu Ruoyun, why are you detained outside the gate?"
"Liu Yue, what a coincidence!"

The young man before her was the person who had impersonated her in the past and was a friend to her in her past life, Liu Yue! Ever since she had parted ways with Lan Ge, Liu Yue had followed by Lan Ge's side. Between the two of them, one was an intellectual while the other was well-versed in strategy and with their cooperation, they have brought the Cloudy Wind Empire to new heights.
"Take me to Lan Ge."
Liu Yue narrowed his eyes slightly and swept his gaze towards the guards who were standing in Gu Ruoyun's way. His eyes flickered with a dangerous light. "Don't you two have any idea who she is? You had the nerve to stand in her way. If General Lan Ge were to find blame, I certainly cannot protect you."
The two guards were shaken as a hint of terror flashed in their eyes. They never thought that Gu Ruoyun was actually acquainted with General Lan Ge.
They were finished!
"Forget it." Gu Ruoyun shook her head at Liu Yue. "They were only doing their duty. There's something even more important at hand. Take me to Lan Ge and Gu Lan! I want to find out if something has happened to Yu'er!"
Liu Yue put his fan away as the frivolous smile on his face turned serious. He then nodded and said, "Come with me."
...
Gu Lan was seated on a stone bench by a stream at the rear of the palace. Her cheek was propped against her hand and she looked listless.
Just as she turned around, she saw a green-robed woman by Liu Yue's side. Her expression shook and she bit her lips as her bloodshot eyes stared at Gu Ruoyun who was walking towards her.
"Gu Lan!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGu Ruoyun walked towards Gu Lan and raised her brow. There was a sense of anxiety in her voice as she asked, "Tell me, has something happened to Yu'er?"
Gu Ruoyun's question seemed to have that triggered Gu Lan for she finally burst into tears.
When Gu Ruoyun saw that, her heart was filled with even more worry.
Could it be that something's really happened to Yu'er?
"Older Sister Gu." Gu Lan's expression was full of agony and she held her head in her hands. "Yu'er has forgotten about me. What should I do? He has completely forgotten everything we've gone through. He even wants to kill me."
Gu Ruoyun's heart thumped. She then raised her hand to pat Gu Lan's shoulder soothingly as her frown deepened.
"Tell me exactly what happened. There's no need to hurry, you can slowly explain things to me."
Gu Lan bit her lips as her tender and lovable features filled with bitterness. "Older Sister Gu, Yu'er and I have gone through a lot during this period of time. We had managed to avert disaster each time and we have grown a lot through this. However, I really don't know what to do this time! It was a good thing that I had happened to run into Lan Ge along my way to the Cloudy Wind Empire. He had then brought me to the Imperial Palace and told me that he would inform you about this matter!"
Gu Lan's expression became even more agonized as she spoke and her body trembled endlessly.
One could imagine how much she has had to endure during the past few days...
