Chapter 1388: Chapter 1388: Demon Sect Leader VS Righteous Maiden (Part 26)

To avoid attracting attention, there was no light in the room.

Yet, both Zhu Yue and the woman could clearly see each other.

If there were others present, they would be utterly surprised to find out that the room was supposed to house a woman whose half face was scarred, but at this moment, sitting by the table clearly was a woman with complete facial features.

No, saying complete might not be entirely accurate; she was undoubtedly a woman with perfect features.

She was sitting by the window, with a sheer moonlight streaming through the window, lending an ethereal beauty to her face.

Zhu Yue walked to her side with a smile, embraced her without any hesitation: “Were you waiting for me?”

Indeed, the woman with scars during the day was Gu Shengyin.

Gu Shengyin glanced at him without pulling away: “Perhaps I was waiting for you, perhaps I wasn’t.”

Zhu Yue understood her meaning; those words were meant to see if he could recognize her.

Although confident in his lover, Zhu Yue was still thrilled when he indeed recognized her, and naturally a bit curious.

“How did you recognize me?” She prided herself on her well-executed disguise skill.

Zhu Yue inhaled the scent of her hair lightly and whispered: “No matter what you turn into, I can recognize you with a single glance.”

Besides you, who else can make me lose control at first sight?

To Zhu Yue, Wu Yeli seemed to have something that firmly drew him in.

It wasn’t some drug-induced method, but more like a bond within the soul.

She was naturally meant to belong to him.

He was undoubtedly certain of this.

Gu Shengyin chuckled softly: “Perhaps we were lovers in a past life?”

Zhu Yue never believed in such things but upon hearing Gu Shengyin’s words, he found them quite sensible.

He nodded: “It’s definitely the same. Next time, we should go to the Temple of the Matchmaker; let the old God bless us to be together every lifetime.”

Gu Shengyin couldn’t help but laugh: This man, his skill at sweet-talking is truly getting more impressive.

However, she liked him just like that.

The two quietly embraced, enjoying the warmth of each other’s presence in the darkness.

“By the way,” Zhu Yue suddenly spoke, “why are you here?”

He was a bit puzzled.

Gu Shengyin didn’t answer.

If he couldn’t figure out such a simple thing, better not ask her and ponder on it himself.

Not hearing Gu Shengyin’s answer, Zhu Yue felt a bit perplexed, but soon a delightful thought rushed into his mind.

He asked carefully: “Is it for me?”

Again, there was no answer.

But Zhu Yue already knew the answer.

His mouth curled up into a smile, feeling as if fireworks were blooming in his heart.

He couldn’t help but hug her tighter, only to hear Gu Shengyin’s complaint: “Ease up a bit, you’re squeezing the breath out of me.”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yue relaxed his embrace a little, leaning down to whisper softly in Gu Shengyin’s ear.

Gu Shengyin’s ears turned red, and she murmured: “I used to hear those Central Plains people praise you for being an upright gentleman. If they knew, you as a gentleman not only sneak into a woman’s room at night, but also say such words, I wonder what they’d think?”
