C674 (1/2)

No one knew how the group of black clothed soldiers had quietly left this place.

Gu Liuyan was taken away without leaving any clues or traces. The heavy rain covered his smell and his whereabouts.

However, Gu Daiyan also woke up to the sound of rain. He was not in the bumpy carriage, but was lying flat on his bed, beside the bed stood two soldiers dressed in black with their masks ripped off. Both of them had terrifying scars on their women's faces, and when she woke up, they could only stare at her.

”Go buy some food.” One of the women gave the order to the other woman, and slowly knelt down beside the bed. Her fingertips brushed away Gu Daiyan's quilt, touching the cold chain that connected her ankles, and she said with an ice-cold voice, ”We hope that Your Highness will be safe.”

”I also hope that I can successfully give birth to a child.” Gu Liu Yan curled her lips. Her bulky lower abdomen made it hard for her to breathe. No familiar feeling came from her surroundings. She only let one of her hands gently calm the little guy in her stomach. She took a few deep breaths and continued: ”How did you knock down ghosts?”

”He only used some despicable methods, she was more willing to meddle in other people's business than you imagined.” The cold woman finally raised a mocking smile, ”Similarly, Your Highness, you are only a mission to us, maybe when the time comes you will still need to think about requesting our help.”

”It seems that you like your master very much.” She half propped herself up, and the iron chain on her ankle knocked against the bed. She only moved her body a little and sneered: ”But I really don't know which blind person would like me, not to mention the fact that I am still pregnant with a child.”

The woman frowned as if she was angered. She held onto the edge of the bed and stood up. ”I hope you will not regret it then.”

”Of course I won't regret it.” Gu Liuyan proudly raised her chin, looking at the woman's leaving figure: ”If you don't have the ability here, I will die with my child. I'm not alone at all.”

The woman stopped and turned around.

Gu Liuyan only lifted up the lapels of his shirt to reveal the lines beneath: ”If you don't tell me who the person is behind this, or what you want me to do, I won't take the antidote. I won't say anything.”

”We have brought all the herbs and prescriptions from your backyard.” The woman scoffed.

”You can try.” Gu Danyan also looked at her calmly: ”Since I was able to follow you here so calmly, I naturally knew that you wouldn't hurt me and would extend my life. After all, I have a lot of chips with me.”

The woman stayed where she was the entire time. The person who had left earlier also came in with food. They looked at each other and said in a softer voice, ”Our master hopes that you can give birth to your child safely.”

”Are you sure he won't kill the child in my womb?” Gu Danyan waved to her and waited for the dishes to be served to her. He then picked up the bowl and chopsticks and said, ”I seem to know who your master is now.”

The two women stared blankly for a moment before leaving without a word.

She was left alone in the room.

After the two of them left, Gu Danyan immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks and lifted the quilt. She looked at the length of the chain, which was only enough for her to sit on the edge of the bed.

The rain outside the window never stopped, and she had no idea how long she had been asleep.

The back of her neck didn't have any aching pain. It should be something similar to knockout drugs, or perhaps she really had slept for too long.

A gap had been opened in the distant window, and two people could faintly be seen standing under the eaves.
