Only Ye Yuwei and Bai Ying were in Bai Ying’s room at midnight.

Ye Yuwei was sitting by the table while Bai Ying sat at the side of the bed with her cat on her lap.

“You shouldn’t be here,” said Bai Ying softly, obviously not happy with Ye Yuwei’s decision to come to the Bai family’s fortress. “They would kill you without a second thought.”

“So where is the distribution map?” asked Ye Yuwei.

Bai Ying curled her lips and looked at Ye Yuwei. “I don’t know where it is, but isn’t that why you are here? To stall the patriarchs and buy Gu Juexi time?”

Ye Yuwei held her hands together tightly, unable to deny it.

“You knew that Qian Yikun was the successor of the Bai family all this while. Why didn’t you tell me, or at least Gu Juexi?” Ye Yuwei asked again.

“Why would I? I wouldn’t trust him with my daughter if he couldn’t even find out something like that,” Bai Ying sneered.

“It was you?” Ye Yuwei looked at Bai Ying.

“What was me?” Bai Ying asked, confused by Ye Yuwei’s question.

Bai Ying’s reaction made Ye Yuwei certain about her guess—Bai Ying was not the mastermind behind the scene who was manipulating everything.

“Gu Juexi is not God. Things would have been less complicated if you only told him earlier…”

“I would never have acknowledged that man if you would accept any other man. I remember very clearly how he used to treat you,” Bai Ying interrupted Ye Yuwei and said, “more so if he wasn’t the father of your two kids.”

“Why don’t you blame yourself then? I wouldn’t have known him if you hadn’t abandoned me back then,” said Ye Yuwei angrily.

Not expecting Ye Yuwei to talk back to her, Bai Ying was stunned for a moment.

“That does not justify how you have been treated, Ye Yuwei,” said Bai Ying who obviously didn’t have a good impression of Gu Juexi. She knew how Ye Yuwei had been treated back then and all she could do was feel sorry for her daughter.

Ye Yuwei wanted to say something, hesitated, but decided to say it in the end after much consideration, “Yu Jiangqing saw Ye Shu six years ago. He is alive.”

Ye Yuwei saw Bai Ying’s expression change instantly. Bai Ying almost looked like she was desperate.

“Sleep early. The patriarchs will lay down tight rules in this place and it might be the last time that you and Gu Juexi see each other. Cherish your time together,” said Bai Ying who then left for her own bedroom.

Ye Yuwei looked at Bai Ying’s receding figure and clenched her fists again.

“Why wouldn’t Uncle come back to Aunt if he was still alive? You should have seen how much he loved her when they were together,” said Nalan Chunbo who was leaning on the door frame, “and if Uncle was alive, I am sure that he would do everything in his power to come back here.”

“It can’t be. Yu Jiangqing swore that he saw Ye Shu,” said Ye Yuwei agitatedly.

Nalan Chunbo reached out to stroke Ye Yuwei’s hair. “You’ve made a sacrifice for nothing. Today was just a teaser, the real war will begin tomorrow. You will only be holding Gu Juexi back.”

“I won’t,” said Ye Yuwei stubbornly. She knew what she had to do before she decided to come.

“I am curious. Didn’t Gu Juexi beat you up when he saw you?” asked Nalan Chunbo suddenly.

Ye Yuwei did not answer him. Was this man really her brother? Where was the man who claimed to love his sister a lot?
