Gu Ruoyun gently raised her lips and held her arms out towards the little child. She smiled and said, “What? Don’t you recognize your own mother?”

Her voice was extremely gentle and caused Xiao Xun’er’s little body to stiffen. Suddenly, he sobbed and threw himself at Gu Ruoyun. His soft body crashed into her embrace.

“Mother, Xun’er dearly wanted you to hug me but Mother had been ignoring Xun’er. Mother, don’t ignore Xun’er anymore. When Xun’er is all grown up, I will go with you and find Father.”

Gu Ruoyun was shaken and she stared at Zuo Shangchen in astonishment.

When he caught her astonished gaze, Zuo Shangchen shrugged his shoulders. “Xiao Xun’er is not like most children. His intelligence surprises even me. I sensed that he now has the IQ of an eight-year-old child so I had told him everything. Xun’er is very obedient and very thoughtful. He knows that you are preparing to save Qianbei Ye so he had not dared to disturb you.”

Gu Ruoyun’s heart throbbed with agony when heard what Zuo Shangchen had said. She then raised her hand and pulled Xiao Xun’er into her arms as her lowered eyes flashed apologetically.

“I’m so sorry, Xun’er, for neglecting you during these past two years.”

Xiao Xun’er’s large eyes blinked and he stared at Gu Ruoyun innocently. “Mother, when are we going to look for Father and Uncle?”

“Uncle?”

Gu Ruoyun looked at Zuo Shangchen in astonishment again. Her teasing gaze caused Zuo Shangchen to feel rather awkward. He cleared his throat and explained, “I didn’t just mention your older brother to Xiao Xun’er, I’ve even told him about your parents. I only wanted to allow him to know his own relatives.”

Just as he had spoken, Xiao Xun’er’s soft and squirmy voice chimed in again, “Godfather has mentioned uncle a thousand and one times; talked about father five hundred and thirty times; and only spoken of grandfather and grandmother over a hundred times.”

“Xiao Xun’er!”

Zuo Shangchen wanted to stop Xiao Xun’er but it was clearly too late. This imaginative and weird little kid had already blurted it all out.

Especially since this little fellow was still unaware of what had happened and only stared at him innocently, “Godfather, did Xun’er get it wrong?”

When faced with this innocent little thing, Zuo Shangchen’s words of rebuke could not be spoken. He sighed but there was a definite look of exasperation on his face.

“Xiao Yun’er, when is Zixie going to wake up?”

Zuo Shangchen seemed to remember something as his eyes turned towards Gu Ruoyun. “If he’s awake, we can leave this place.”

“Zixie.”

Gu Ruoyun gently curled the corners of her lips, “If you’re awake, come out.”

A demonic voice suddenly rang out and echoed through the entire cave.

“Little girl, I was only unconscious for several years 1 but you’ve gone and had a child with that fellow, Qianbei Ye?”

A dark, reddish-purple figure appeared behind Gu Ruoyun. He had wanted to hug her as he usually did but, in the end, the handsome and demonic-looking man lowered his outstretched arms. There was a smile in his purple eyes.

However, no one knew how much jealousy and misery was in that smile as well as a feeling of unwillingness...

“Zixie, I need your help.”

Gu Ruoyun had not noticed the peculiarities in Zixie’s behavior. Her chilly eyes turned towards the man behind her.

“Do you want to break the formation?” Zixie smiled gently, “That can be done! However, is this little one you and Qianbei Ye’s child? It seems that in the years that I’ve been asleep, I’ve missed out on too many things.”
