"It's been nearly two years and Mother has shown no sign of movement. Does she not want Xun'er anymore?"
Xiao Xun'er's head drooped as he asked in dismay.
Now that it has been mentioned, this little fellow's situation was rather pitiful. Gu Ruoyun had entered a long period of closed-door cultivation almost immediately after his birth. After Gu Ruoyun had emerged from her closed-door cultivation with much difficulty, he had ended up being thrown into the Red Lotus Territory as she ran off to look for his father.
Her search had taken quite a while and he would sit at the gate like a puppy anticipating its master's return, waiting anxiously and keeping a diligent watch on the road.
At that time, he believed that his mother would come home as long as he continued to wait!
It was a good thing that expectation was fulfilled. He had waited for what felt like an eternity before he finally received some news...
Xun'er, you are the cutest thing!
