Ye Zhilin suddenly gripped her collar nervously, as if doing so could warm her body, frozen to the extreme by a chilling presence. "You... you're Gu Qiyun, here to claim my life?"
"Yes," Gu Jiayin drawled with a lazy, chilling smile, each word meticulously articulated to instill the deepest fear in Ye Zhilin. "My soul has remained at Crocodile Bay, unable to return to Heaven. It's so cold and gloomy there, it's unbearably sad. I'm not happy, so I had to find you, to let you share in my sorrow."
Ye Zhilin's face turned pale, her lips trembling uncontrollably, her heart pounding so wildly that it rendered her incapable of hearing anything else. "Gu Qiyun, please don't harm me. It was Qin Zhennan and Gu Shaohua who conspired against you and your child. I had no part in it."
"!"
It was like thunder cracking in a clear sky, shattering the barriers in Gu Jiayin's mind.
Gu Shaohua.
