章 721: The First Compliment

Nalan Chunbo was not bothered by the way Ye Yuwei stared at him and reached out to stroke her hair. "Get some rest. The gate is closed and no one can leave or enter the castle now. This really could be the last time that you and Gu Juexi see each other."

Ye Yuwei pursed her lips as she watched Nalan Chunbo leave. 

She had no idea what it meant by closing the gate, but she could guess from Nalan Chunbo's words that the first patriarch only ordered to close the gate because he knew that Gu Juexi was here. 

The room arranged for Ye Yuwei was a guest room next to Bai Ying's bedroom. Ye Yuwei was wide awake in her room and began to wonder if she had made the right decision. 

The Bai family's fortress was in pin-drop silence at midnight. Ye Yuwei went to the window when she heard a noise. Before she could reach the window, it was opened from the outside and a man who was wearing the mask of Yan Feng swung in – it was Gu Juexi.
