A Hurdle In Her Heart

Sitting inside the living hall of the Li Manor, General Li had a blank face. 

It took him a long time to raise his head and look at Gu Li who seemed to be at lack of knowing what to do. 

Li Rui had just finished telling her father everything and it was for the first time Gu Li came to know of things from her point of view. 

At that time when she was there in the forest with him and her master had told him that she came from an influential family and hence she couldn't stay with him, he had never imagined that Li Rui would be a girl from a clan that was greatly respected by every person of Xin. 

Scratching that…he had never even known that she was not a boy until a few weeks ago. 

Still he had thought that her family was too careless to not care about her. Otherwise, how was he able to find her alone in such a dangerous situation? 

Today, too, Gu Li thought the same. 

Her father was not even aware of anything until today.
