Dark clouds covered the sky, a light breeze carrying a hint of chill.
After a long while, as if through great hardship, the breeze managed to scatter the clouds.
Bright moonlight illuminated the earth.
It shone upon the bewildered Ren Shan in front of the house and the smiling Gu An before her.
Their eyes met.
Then a calm voice tinged with a smile broke the silence: "Immortal, what's wrong? Do you not like seeing me?"
"Senior Brother Gu." Ren Shan greeted him, then said with an apology:
"I'm sorry, but perhaps Brother has misunderstood. We, a mother and daughter alone in the world, must plead pitifully or else no one would help us.
I am just trying to save myself; I hope Brother can understand."
"Are you apologizing to me?" Gu An asked with a smile.
"Yes." Ren Shan replied earnestly: "I naturally admit to my mistakes, and I hope Brother can forgive me."
