As she spoke, Gu Bailu observed the surroundings on the other side.
It was a dark space. She could vaguely see tables and chairs around them. A fire was burning in the dark space. There was a green pot on top of the fire. The content of the pot was boiling, the steam lifting up the lid.
Someone had clearly been living here. Also, all the clothes that Gu Yunjing loved were on the shelf.
Had Gu Yunjing been staying here all this time?
“Do you need to think about it? This man was injured in order to block the Heavenly Tribulation for you; otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to touch him.”
Gu Yunjing was knocked to the ground. His head was bent low and blood dripped from his face.
Gu Bailu’s heart almost jumped out of her chest. She had never seen him look so miserable. He was the young emperor of the Imperial Residence and had always been high and mighty, but he had ended up like this because of her.
He knew that she had a man and a baby, and she couldn’t reciprocate his love.
But he still loved her to this extent.
Gu Bailu didn’t know how to describe this unrequited love.
She felt touched and guilty, and didn’t know how to thank him.
“But I’m going to lose my own flesh and blood. I’ll give you an answer tomorrow.” Gu Bailu looked at Gu Yunjing and clenched her fists before she canceled her divination.
She immediately told Feng Qingtian about Gu Yunjing. Feng Qingtian’s eyes immediately turned fierce. “How dare they attack Gu Yunjing?”
Gu Bailu also didn’t expect them to attack Gu Yunjing.
Who was Gu Yunjing? In Feng Qingtian’s words, Gu Yunjing was on par with him at Heavenly Palace Cliff. If anything happened to Feng Qingtian, then Gu Yunjing would be the one to become the Heavenly Emperor.
However, Gu Yunjing didn’t become the Heavenly Emperor after Feng Qingtian’s mishap. Instead, he followed them to the human world and stayed by Feng Qingtian’s side for 150 years.
Actually, Gu Bailu didn’t think that Gu Yunjing liked her very much; he was more interested in Feng Qingtian.
When she first saw him, she thought that he was interested in Feng Qingtian.
However, Gu Yunjing said that he liked her.
Actually, he had long known who Gu Bailu was, and had sent Nan Ningxin to approach Feng Qingtian in order to make Feng Qingtian fall in love with Nan Ningxin and break Gu Bailu and Feng Qingtian up.
However, Gu Bailu knew that he was doing this to protect her and Feng Qingtian, because she would be punished by the Heavenly Tribulation if she was with Feng Qingtian.
When he learned that she and Feng Qingtian were determined to be together, he used his shadow to help her survive the Heavenly Tribulation.
How could there be such a selfless love in this world?
Why did it feel like Gu Yunjing loved the both of them?
He liked her and Feng Qingtian, or he wouldn’t go to this extreme.
“My lord, what do we do now? Is there any way to find that cold man? Do you know him?” Gu Bailu was anxious.
She couldn’t hurt her baby to save Gu Yunjing, but she couldn’t disregard Gu Yunjing either.
Now that she had stalled for a day, the man probably wouldn’t dare hurt Gu Yunjing. After all, even if Gu Yunjing was already human, he still had his former identity.
He hadn’t done anything wrong. He had lowered himself to be reincarnated for her and Feng Qingtian’s sake.
To put it bluntly, it would be very easy for him to return to Heavenly Palace Cliff.
