บท 1163: That Gem Was Ominous

Ye Yuwei gave up trying to get any information from him. If Gu Juexi didn't want to say something, he was never going to let it slip. 

"By the way, did you manage to retrieve the sapphire that my father left behind?" asked Ye Yuwei. She would have asked for it a long time ago if it weren't for the things that happened since they had gotten back.

She jumped off the cliff together with the sapphire back then, and she hadn't seen it since. 

Gu Juexi scoffed when he heard Ye Yuwei's question. She had the cheek to ask about the sapphire! The sapphire was exactly why she fell into Bai Yuyan's trap back then. 

"What kind of reaction was that? Could you find it or not?" asked Ye Yuwei indignantly. 

"That gem was ominous, why get it back? I would rather it stay under the sea," said Gu Juexi emotionlessly. Ye Yuwei wouldn't have jumped off the cliff if it weren't for that sapphire.
