Gu Xin Yan sat alone at the corner of the banquet hall. Everything that had just happened caused the City Lords of the 72 cities to be at a loss, but all this had nothing to do with her. She was just a spectator, protecting that little bit of calm in her heart in a night of fluctuating emotions.
"Miss." A voice sounded in Gu Xin Yan's ears.
Gu Xin Yan slowly raised her head and saw Ye Mei, who was dressed as a housekeeper, standing in front of her.
"My Lord has requested for you to go to the backyard for a short while. Would Miss be willing to?" Ye Mei said.
Gu Xin Yan froze a little, subconsciously she wanted to refuse, but suddenly a pair of slightly familiar eyes appeared in her mind. She swallowed her refusal. She did not immediately reply but looked towards the two guards, who were sent by Highness Ying, standing beside her.
The two guards thought for a moment before nodding slightly.
Gu Xin Yan then said to Ye Mei: "Alright."
