Chapter 1540: Mysterious ManEditor: Henyee Translations

"Later, when Gu Jingyuan heard that the Gu family had been exiled to Linxun Island, he brought Shao Yin to the Lingzhou Prefecture."

Gu Jingyuan indeed wanted to save the Gu family. He wanted to marry Shao Yin, but he did not want to lose the Gu family for Shao Yin.

Moreover, it was Shao Yin who had caused the Gu family to become like this.

At first, Gu Jingyuan wanted Shao Yin to follow him willingly, so even though he had kidnapped her, he still coaxed her into following him. He was very patient.

Shao Yin was also afraid that Gu Jingyuan would do something impulsive, so she deliberately pretended to be submissive and tried to find an opportunity to escape.

However, Gu Jingyuan was exceptionally cautious when it came to guarding her. He did not dare to slack off at all.

Later on, when they arrived at the Lingzhou Prefecture, Gu Jingyuan found out that his parents were suffering on Linxun Island because of the Old Marquis’s fault, so he vented his anger on Shao Yin.

He started to hit Shao Yin and wanted to use force on her.

At that time, Shao Yin had no choice but to jump down from the window on the second floor of the inn.

The jump broke her leg.

However, she had also found an opportunity.

A man passed by and saved Shao Yin.

When Gu Jingyuan rushed out of the inn to take Shao Yin away, Shao Yin shouted on the spot, "This person is a human trafficker. His parents were exiled to Linxun Island for crimes. He slipped through the net and is planning to go to Linxun Island to free the prisoners."

As soon as he said this, Gu Jingyuan was afraid. Seeing that more and more people were surrounding him, he could only abandon Shao Yin and quickly run out of the crowd.

Shao Yin was saved by that young man, and her whereabouts were unknown.

Then, half a year later, that man reappeared and found Gu Jingyuan, who was hiding in the Lingzhou Prefecture. He directly sent him to Linxun Island to do what needed to be done with the Gu family.

When Gu Yuwen said this, she stopped. "This is all I know. When Gu Jing came to the island, he told Gu Yiping everything that happened on the way. I was young and hid outside. I happened to hear it."

Gu Yundong let out a long breath and turned to smile at Shao Qingyuan. "She’s still alive."

"Yes." Shao Qingyuan’s voice was a little hoarse, as if he had been tense since he heard Gu Yuwen’s story.

Yeah, still alive.

Moreover, they also knew that Gu Jingyuan had nothing to do with Shao Yin, and Shao Qingyuan had nothing to do with Gu Jingyuan.

In that case, it was very likely that Shao Yin was with that man?

"Does this mean that Gu Jingyuan doesn’t know who that man is?"

Gu Yuwen shook his head. "He doesn’t know, but he’s certain that the man is from the Lingzhou Prefecture."

"What do you mean?"

Gu Yuwen said, "You should have asked around. When the Gu clan first came to Xun Island, they lived a comfortable life for two years. That was because a general on Linxun Island had some friendship with Gu Yiping. Therefore, when Gu Jingyuan was brought to the island, that general naturally helped to ask around."

"Then, we found out that someone put pressure on the magistrate of the Spirit State Prefecture and asked the prefecture magistrate to find Gu Jingyuan and escort him to Linxun Island as a criminal. The person the prefecture magistrate saw was a couple. From the description, the woman was Shao Yin."

Gu Yundong’s eyes lit up. Someone who could put pressure on the prefecture magistrate must have a special identity.

It seemed that the prefecture magistrate knew their identities.
