By the time Yu Wenrui realized what had happened and arrived at the courtyard, it was already night, and Yun Chuqing had left.
The yard was very dark, the servant mentioned that Miss You Lan did not allow lighting any lamps.
Yu Wenrui, holding a lantern, walked into the room and saw Gu Shengyin sitting with her knees hugged on the wide, soft couch at a glance.
Seeing him approach, Gu Shengyin simply looked at him calmly.
Yet that single look seized Yu Wenrui's heart, as though she was crying, even though her expression remained unchanged.
"You Lan..." he called her.
"I heard that you haven't eaten all day, so I brought your favorite flower honey cake." Although You Lan was a transformation of a flower, she didn't exhibit the typical resentment towards her kind and enjoyed various desserts made from flowers and fruits.
"Yu Wenrui." Gu Shengyin spoke softly.
"Today, someone came to my courtyard and told me many things."
Yu Wenrui fell silent.
