Chapter 25 - Cloud Searching at night

The night was dark and the wind was strong, the moon and stars sparse.

The cold air assaulted the autumn night, like the cool moonlight falling from the water.

A pair of delicate white hands grabbed the roof and slowly revealed her head. She laid on the roof, alert of the patrolling guards that had just passed by. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw them walk away.

Following that, a person appeared beside her in a relaxed and elegant manner. Under the awkward situation of the person beside her, his nobility and elegance was further accentuated.

Yun Qianliang laid on the cold tiles, and on the autumn night, a drop of frost fell on her body. She stuck to the roof, and the frost wetted her dress, causing the night wind to freeze her body, causing her to tremble uncontrollably.

Yun Qianliang lowered her voice and said impatiently: ”Gu Yicheng, are you sick?”

”You have medicine?” His lips curled up in a provocative smile.

”I'm poisoned!”

”Yes, there is indeed poison.”

Under the splendor of the moon, the person dressed in the purplish red splendor was laughing arrogantly.

Yun Qianliang secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and rolled her eyes at the person beside him.

In the middle of the night, he was completely oblivious to sleep, and he even disturbed people's sweet dreams.

There was a basket of soulmates in the mansion, and he found them one by one throughout the long night, talking about them night and day, from poems and songs to philosophy of life. It was more than enough. But he had actually pulled her out of the warm quilt and laid her on the roof of the Yun Xiang Mansion to enjoy the wind!

Gu Yicheng looked down at the dark terrain below him, and took out a terrifying mask from his sleeves to cover his face.

”Are you familiar with the general terrain of the Yun Xiang Mansion?” Gu Yicheng turned around and asked.

Yun Qianliang turned his head and was just about to advise him to give up.

Turning his head to look, what entered his eyes was a ferocious ghost mask, the mask had created a scene of blood and flesh being torn apart, and a cool scarlet tongue hanging from his mouth. Yun Qianliang trembled twice, cold sweat forming on his back, as he instinctively dodged backwards, almost falling down from the roof.

Gu Yicheng quickly lifted her and put her down on the roof. Then he said in a deep voice: ”Lie down.”

Yun Qianliang breathed heavily twice, and her thunder-like heartbeat gradually calmed down. However, after being startled, the cold feeling on her back started to rise bit by bit, as if a cold snake's skin was sticking close to her skin, seeping out until it became extremely perturbed.

This fellow must have deliberately dragged her out in the middle of the night to scare her to death seeing that she wasn't poisoned to death.

”This master's mask is quite pretty, isn't it?” Gu Yicheng took off his mask, proudly admiring the scene in front of him.

Yun Qianliang forcefully raised the corner of her mouth and laughed dryly.

Look at your brother-in-law!

After resting for a while, Gu Yicheng put on his mask again and easily picked up the person who was lying on the roof.

The roof tiles were heavy with frost and made it easy for him to slip. He stood still and held her in his arms as he stood up straight and wrapped his arms around her waist.

”Where is cloud phase's study room located at?” Gu Yicheng asked.

Relying on his memories, Yun Qianliang pointed to a certain direction.

The night wind brushed past their ears, and their hair tangled together in the wind, forming a kind of intimate relationship.

Yun Qianliang held onto his sleeves tightly, just in case he fell down and landed in a half crippled state.

With Yun Qianliang, the living map that had been here for more than ten years, the two of them easily avoided the patrolling guards. Even she knew a little about the secret guards around the study.

After sneaking into the study room, Gu Yicheng immediately released his, as if a gentleman didn't like to take advantage of others.
