Second Old Master Gu stared at Gu Yuanli darkly and said, “How did you know that she’s your sister?”
He asked the question Ye Ling had too.
Why did Gu Yuanli know?
Gu Yuanli did not answer and knocked his head on the ground heavily again. “Father, when I knew of this, little sis was already in the orphanage. Thus, I sent someone to look after her secretly. At that time, I did not know that she was adopted by the Shen Family. The only thought I had was that if she was safe, being in the orphanage is alright too. Back then, our family had many enemies, and little sis was still small. I was scared that she would become everyone’s target and thus chose to keep it from you. If I were to tell you, you would surely fetch her home.
“After that, Ghost City was facing eradication. I had no time to care about that anymore, and when I returned to find her, little sis had already gone to Paris. I had always sent someone to secretly help out too, but I was also afraid of going too close in case she grew suspicious. My original intention was only to protect her.” Gu Yuanli explained.
If Black Rose knew that little sis was alive, she would never let her live.
He had hidden this secret for over ten years.
Up until Shen Qianshu was pregnant, his extreme attention on her then caused Black Rose to have some suspicions.
This was his mistake.
But he could say nothing at all.
If Black Rose knew that Fang Hongxiu’s daughter was alive, she would surely kill her. If that was the case, she would be better off living outside. After that, Shen Qianshu’s life was really good. She was rich and had no worries at all. He then even more did not want Shen Qianshu to be dragged into Black Rose’s matter.
The only time he interfered in Shen Qianshu’s life was with regards to her and Ye Ling.
As he knew about this feud.
As he knew that they were old enemies.
Thus, he tried his best to separate the two of them.
One mistake after another!
But he did not regret it.
At least, Shen Qianshu was still alive.
His difficulties could only be kept to himself.
“How about in the end? In the end, why did you not tell me?”
Gu Yuanli kept silent.
Second Old Master Gu suddenly pulled out his gun and aimed it at Gu Yuanli. Shen Qianshu hurriedly rushed forward and stood in front of Gu Yuanli. Second Old Master Gu was someone with a really hot temper. He had already endured past his breaking point, and a gush of blood powered through his vessels.
Shen Qianshu was like a pail of ice water, splashing it down.
“Qianshu, move away!”
Shen Qianshu gently shook her head. Shen Qianshu could almost guess why Gu Yuanli did not tell Second Old Master Gu, but the enraged Second Old Master Gu could not think of that much. So, her Master…
No, her brother had always been protecting her.
He wanted to separate her and Ye Ling only because he wanted to protect her. However, that was only his personal thoughts.
No wonder he treated her so well.
“Did you also hear what he had done to you? He purposely kept it from the family. What are his motives?”
Ye Ling’s gaze darkened. He looked at Shen Qianshu and called out. “Shen Qianshu, come over here!”
He did not like that there was someone holding a gun and pointing it at Shen Qianshu.
Even if he was her biological father.
He hated it too!
“Second Old Master, this is not his fault.”
“What did you call me?” Second Old Master Gu asked.
Shen Qianshu could not say the word ‘father.’ To her, Second Old Master Gu was too foreign. They had only met a few times before. The sudden realization of her family background caused Shen Qianshu to be unable to regain her senses.
“Little Shu, move away. Father wants to beat me to death, and this is what I deserve!”
Shen Qianshu stubbornly stood in front of Gu Yuanli.
Suddenly, she clutched onto her abdomen forcefully. This action frightened all three men.
“Qianshu…”
“Little Shu…”
Ye Ling suddenly stood up from his wheelchair while Gu Yuanli supported the unstable and weak Shen Qianshu. Shen Qianshu clutched her abdomen, and she felt so painful that cold sweat started forming on her forehead. Black Rose laughed heartily instead. “Can I leave now?”
