Nalan Chunbo was not bothered by the way Ye Yuwei stared at him and reached out to stroke her hair. “Get some rest. The gate is closed and no one can leave or enter the castle now. This really could be the last time that you and Gu Juexi see each other.”

Ye Yuwei pursed her lips as she watched Nalan Chunbo leave.

She had no idea what it meant by closing the gate, but she could guess from Nalan Chunbo’s words that the first patriarch only ordered to close the gate because he knew that Gu Juexi was here.

The room arranged for Ye Yuwei was a guest room next to Bai Ying’s bedroom. Ye Yuwei was wide awake in her room and began to wonder if she had made the right decision.

The Bai family’s fortress was in pin-drop silence at midnight. Ye Yuwei went to the window when she heard a noise. Before she could reach the window, it was opened from the outside and a man who was wearing the mask of Yan Feng swung in – it was Gu Juexi.

Gu Juexi reached out to pull Ye Yuwei into his arms the moment his feet touched the floor, and all his stress instantly subsided.

Ye Yuwei hugged Gu Juexi back while looking at his face. “Should I really not have come, Gu Juexi?”

Gu Juexi kissed her lips and took her to the bed. “I got the distribution map thanks to you.”

For the first time, Gu Juexi did not blame or scold Ye Yuwei but complimented her instead.

After all, he wouldn’t have found the distribution map if it weren’t for Ye Yuwei risking her own safety to buy him more time.

Ye Yuwei’s mind went blank when Gu Juexi complimented her. She was already prepared to get a scolding since Gu Juexi never approved of anything she did.

Now that Gu Juexi had complimented her, Ye Yuwei didn’t know how to react.
