620 The Lord’s Suspicion (2/2)

Gu Xijiu felt almost helpless, ”My Lord, are you actually suspecting him? The time gap between now and then is filled with several dynasties, there is no way for him to be here!”

The Lord was already passing on some papers and a pen to her, ”Draw them down.”

For the slightest moment, Gu Xijiu regretted that she had learned how to draw. She regretted even more for letting The Lord know that she could draw.

Without any way out, she reluctantly drew a few of them based on her memory. She then tossed the drawings to the Lord and said, ”There they are.”

She had probably got herself too familiar with The Lord, as the way she talked to her had become increasingly casual and quite at ease with her choice of words.

It was probably not too convenient for them to sit across the table, so she took her chair to his side and explained closely to him about the types of venom in each jar.

They sat side-by-side and started engaging in a discussion. They appeared to be in sync and kind to one another.

The Lord took a look at her as she explained attentively to him in high spirit. He was somewhat moved, as he began to feel the warmth in her presence.

It was the first time for someone to be in such a proximity to him. It happened so naturally.

However, it would be hilarious if the four messengers witnessed this scenario. They would be utterly surprised.

The lady was already challenging the authority of The Lord before she knew it.

However, he did not intend to remind her, as he had a good feeling about it.

He had always been high up in all superiority and out of touch.

He already felt a little lonely for being at the top over such a long period of time. He was hoping for someone to be by his side.

He could feel her scent surrounding him. She was so close to him and he was very tempted to hold her in his arms.
