“This…” Gu Ruoyun turned and glanced at Grand Lord Hong Lian before she replied hesitantly, “I think so.”

　　In the end, Gu Ruoyun had chosen to cover up Qianbei Ye’s lie.

　　However, after she had sided with Qianbei Ye on this, she then sent him a very sharp glare. Grand Lord Hong Lian, who was currently in extreme shock, had not noticed the look on her face at all. Instead, he lamented resentfully, “A grown girl can’t be kept at home. I had thought that I could have you to myself for a few more years but since you’ve already made such a decision, I have no choice but to hand you over to him.”

　　Grand Lord Hong Lian sighed before he turned to look at Qianbei Ye. This time, his expression was not a very pretty sight. He glared at him icily and spoke to him in an authoritative manner, “Kid, I only have one precious daughter. In the past, she had endured a lot of suffering so if you ever have the audacity to bully her, I will never let you get away with it!”

　　“Don’t worry, father-in-law, I won’t let any harm come to Yun’er.” Qianbei Ye’s mouth curled into a beautiful smile.

　　However, his bloodred eyes were filled with resolve.

　　He would give his life to protect this woman. Hence, he could never bear for her to come to any harm.

　　“Father,” Gu Ruoyun stepped forward and reached out to Grand Lord Hong Lian, giving him a hug. She then smiled gently and said, “Right now, the most important thing to me is for our family to be reunited. If I wish to marry Xiao Ye, we’ll need to get Mother back.”

　　Grand Lord Hong Lian felt a little better after he heard this. His handsome features lit up with a beautiful smile as he gazed tenderly at the woman in green.

　　“Dearest Daughter, I shan’t disturb your rest any further. If anyone ever bullies you, look for me at the Red Lotus Territory. I’d love to see the person who dares to bully my precious daughter!”

　　He spoke with a sharp and domineering manner. His sharp brows were raised ever so slightly and his handsome features emitted a cold light.

　　Gu Ruoyun’s heart softened and she gently nodded, “Father, I’ll be attending the Medicine Sect’s general meeting in a few days. Once I’m done with that, I’ll go to the Red Lotus Territory and pay you a visit.”

　　“Alright, I’ll wait for you at the Red Lotus Territory.”

　　After he had said his piece, Grand Lord Hong Lian shot Qianbei Ye another look before he turned around and left the bedroom.

　　Once the grim figure in red had left, Gu Ruoyun faced Qianbei Ye and raised an eyebrow, “We’ve already experienced the intimacies of the flesh?”

　　“Wouldn’t we be experiencing it a little later?”

　　Qianbei Ye smiled magnificently as if there was nothing to be embarrassed about in his words. His red eyes were filled with delight as he moved closer towards Gu Ruoyun.

　　“Wife, shall we continue?”

　　As Qianbei Ye moved closer towards Gu Ruoyun, he was suddenly met by a swift kick which landed on the defenseless Qianbei Ye. In that moment, Qianbei Ye’s expression changed drastically. He broke out into a cold sweat from the pain and looked absolutely pitiful as he stared aggrievedly at the woman.

　　“Wife, do you want your husband to die without descendants?”

　　The phrase ‘die without descendants’ had been spoken through gritted teeth.

　　The first carnal visit had been rudely interrupted by my honored father-in-law. It’s a good thing that I have good endurance so it had not caused any serious consequences. However, Gu Ruoyun had instantly thrown me a kick during my second attempt. While the force from the kick wasn’t that strong, that area was actually a man’s weakest point ¹ .
