Evil Emperor's Wild Consort - chapter-558

“They were in my way.”

Gu Ruoyun calmly raised her gaze as she spoke with a clear and cold
voice. She looked as if nothing particularly surprising had happened and
remained in her usual calm demeanor.

She then quickened her pace and walked away without sparing anyone else a
second glance.

A complicated look appeared in Murong Yan’s eyes as she stared at the
delicate yet tall figure who was like a slender bamboo tree, “Senior
Brother, who do you think she really is?

“I don’t know either.” Lu Shaochen shook his head, “She had previously
made a move against Yeh Lin, and now she has attacked Yeh Ling. Was it
really because they were both in her way? I don’t know why but despite
the short time that I’ve gotten to know her, I can tell that Miss Gu
isn’t really a cold and merciless person. Quite the opposite, in fact,
she’s actually very affectionate except that she doesn’t always show it
so easily.”

Perhaps she had remembered the scene when they had all first met one
another for Murong Yan lowered her head in embarrassment, “Senior
Brother, perhaps I’ve really been in the wrong. I shouldn’t have treated
her with such animosity in the beginning.”

“Yan’er, it’s about time you had an attitude adjustment.” Luo Shaochen
said with a smile.

This girl is certainly hard-mouthed and not very good at composing
herself. However, because of this, it was quite common for her to provoke
problems with her foul temper…

“Murong Yan!!!”

In a corner not too far away, Murong Rou’er fixed her gaze upon Murong
Yan and clenched her fist as she mumbled to herself angrily, “Do you
really think that you can inherit the seat of the Murong family’s master
and Big Brother Lu in this manner? Let me tell you this, dream on! I
still have one last trump card in my hand! This trump card will
definitely force you into giving up completely.”

Whether it’s Lu Shaochen or the Murong family, they should all belong to
me!

No one can take them away from me!

…

At the Murong family home.

In the courtyard, Gu Ruoyun watched Lu Shaochen and Murong Yan as they
passed her by. She calmly raised her eyebrows, “I need to speak to you
two. It wasn’t convenient for me to mention this in public but now that
we’re alone, I can freely discuss these matters with you both.”

Murong Yan and Lu Shaochen had not noticed it but due to Gu Ruoyun’s
higher level of power, she had long sensed Murong Rou’er who had been
lurking in the shadows. That’s why she had decided to return home and
wait for their return.

Lu Shaochen smiled, “Lady Gu, there’s no harm in saying what you think.
I’ll help you as much as I can.”

“I’ve asked to speak to you not because I need your help.” Gu Ruoyun
replied with a glint in her eye, “It’s because I want to help you.”

Lu Shaochen was stunned and he turned to look at Murong Yan before
looking back at Gu Ruoyun, “Lady Gu, what you’re saying is…”

“Actually, it’s nothing much. I would like to see old Master Murong.
Perhaps I can heal him.”

“What?”

Murong Yan’s expression stiffened as she widened her eyes and stared at
Gu Ruoyun’s pretty face in shock. She looked as if she had just heard
something impossible. Then, her stiff expression slowly filled with
excitement as she dashed forward and grabbed Gu Ruoyun by the hand. In
this very moment, her voice trembled.

“You… Is this true? Grandfather… He… He can be cured?”

The reason why the Yeh family looks down on the Murong family was because
the backbone of the Murong family had fallen ill. If her grandfather had
been cured, Yeh Ling would never have acted with such impudence!

More importantly, her parents have long passed away so her grandfather
was now her only relative. If there was a chance for him to be saved, she
would give everything that she has with no complaints.

“That’s right, I can save him. But on one condition.”

A light flashed across Gu Ruoyun’s face as she smiled calmly, “I want the
Murong family to vow their loyalty and devotion to me!”
