Upon entering the room, Gu Ruoyun had immediately noticed the frivolous-looking man who was sitting cross-legged and the sour-faced Ye Ying right next to him. At this moment, Ye Ying was already dangling at the edge of tolerance and his initially sharp eyes were now spitting fire as he fixed his glare upon the man.
However...
When Gu Ruoyun's eyes landed upon the gentle yet reserved man's handsome face, her eyes flickered as the corners of her lips curled into a small smile.
That's him? She mused.
"Miss Gu, you're here?"
Ye Ying laughed bitterly before sighing, "I didn't think that it would turn out this way either. I..."
Gu Ruoyun waved her hand and stopped Ye Ying from continuing his speech.
"Ye Ying, leave this matter to me."
"Alright."
Ye Ying fell silent and gently nodded. This fellow really was driving him to the brink of insanity. First, he had turned the entire World Destruction Mercenaries unit upside down. He then said that as long as they feed him with a full meal, he would leave. In the end? This fellow was clearly well fed now but he would not leave at all — now more so than ever!
"I heard that you're looking for me?" Gu Ruoyun raised an eyebrow as she looked at the young man with a smile which did not reach her eyes.
A frivolous smile remained on the young man's handsome face as he said, "Gu Ruoyun, no matter how you say it, we can only be considered to be tied together by fate. I only wanted to have a talk with you. That's right, just to have a chat 1 ."
"Fate?" Gu Ruoyun chuckled softly. "From what I know, we don't know each other. How could we be fated?"
"This..." The young man's eyes flickered. "You see, out of so many people on this mainland, I had chosen to impersonate you. If that isn't destiny, then what is?"
Ye Ying was dumbstruck.
This was the first time he has ever met someone who has impersonated another and could still act so bold, confident, and self-righteous about their own actions!
He reckons that, aside from this guy, no one else would possibly act so shamelessly!
"Oh?" Gu Ruoyun's smile grew more pronounced. "So, according to you, your choice in impersonating me means that we're tied together by fate?"
The young man nodded, "That's right, we're tied by fate. Hehe, since as we're fated, how about I follow you around?"
Only now did Ye Ying understand this fellow's intentions.
As it turns out, he was considering Gu Ruoyun as a replacement for the Heavenly Wolf mercenaries? Now he wants to freeload off her for food and drink?
"You want to follow me?"
"No, no, no. I only want to help you," The young man refuted Gu Ruoyun's statement.
Follow her?
That's a grade lower than others!
How could I rank beneath others?
"What? You want to discuss conditions with me? Since that's the case, let me tell you about the consequences of impersonating me." The smile on Gu Ruoyun's face was unreadable. She then turned towards the beautiful and handsome young man, smiled brightly and said, "You've used my name to freeload food and drink off others and to also steal from them. How shall we settle this bill?"
"This... This..." The young man's eyes were darting back and forth. He then replied flatteringly, "Gu Ruoyun, ah, no, Great Master Gu. As a great and powerful Pill Master of the mainland, you shouldn't be so petty, right? I have merely impersonated you so I didn't do anything wrong. At most, I had only swindled those *ssholes from the Heavenly Wolf Mercenaries. Besides, didn't you have a grudge against them?"
Gu Ruoyun chuckled softly, "Apologies, I really am that petty. As for the grudge between the World Destruction Mercenaries and the Heavenly Wolf Mercenaries, what does that have to do with me? Do you really think you have the right to barter with me?"
At that point, she paused and looked around. "On account of the fact that you haven't done anything to harm me, I will spare you for now."
Hearing this, the young man heaved a sigh of relief.
