A night's effort had turned into nothing but bubbles.
At that moment, a light chuckle broke the stillness of the early morning.
"Heh heh heh..."
Bai Yiyi's figure appeared within Gu Sheng's line of sight.
A playful smile graced her face, as though she had long foreseen Gu Sheng's failure.
"Young Master Gu, why put yourself through this? Don't you know this peach blossom forest was meticulously set up by us?"
Her tone carried a hint of mockery.
Gu Sheng slumped against a peach tree with labored breaths, his heart brimming with a sense of defeat.
He knew clearly that there was no escape, and he could only resign himself to her will.
"What kind of spell did you use on these peach trees to make them obey you?"
Gu Sheng questioned, his face full of anger.
Bai Yiyi didn't respond. Instead, she gently waved her hand.
Immediately, several maidservants stepped forward and bound Gu Sheng.
