Perhaps, in the beginning, Lan Shao could still hold onto a small shred of delusion by hoping that the woman in green was not Gu Ruoyun and everything had been a plot concocted by everyone else to fool him. However, when he heard Bai Yin's reply, his last sliver of hope vanished and his face instantly turned as gray as ash. His expression was now filled with hopelessness.
"So she really is Gu Ruoyun. Why had you lied to me and said that she has no background?"
Lan Shao bellowed from the depths of his throat. It was easy to imagine the fiery anger that burns in his heart at the moment.
Bai Yin laughed icily as she retorted, "Knowing your guts, if I had told you that she was Gu Ruoyun, would you have continued to help me harm her? However, Lan Shao, you've realized this a little too late. Now that you're on the same boat as I am, she won't possibly spare you even if you want to get off this boat."
Lan Shao shut his eyes as his body trembled violently.
