Shen Qianshu was determined not to admit that her gambling skills were completely dependent on bystanders who let her win. She also made a decision to take a trip to Macau with Master one day to prove herself. Gu Yuanli did not know whether to laugh or cry. Her gambling skills were very impressive, but not to the extent of being the champion every year. There was naturally his manipulation behind this.
There were many times when he disguised as a bystander and competed with her. As he was completely familiar with her style, he could naturally not reveal any traces when he lost to her.
Gu Yuanli was seriously injured and could not sit for too long. He was extremely cold, but he kept bearing with it.
The private doctor was not far away. He watched for a long time and wanted to remind Gu Yuanli. However, he was stopped by his gaze.
He dared not speak too much.
Ghost City’s Second Master was the absolute overlord. However, this little Second Master should also not be underestimated. He was the real wielder of power during these few years.
One generation had even more tricks than the other.
Shen Qianshu had gotten most of her doubts explained, and she felt a little more relaxed. She had the intention to talk about the matter involving Fang Hongxiu. “Second Brother, do you love Mom?”
“Of course.”
“When she met with an accident, you were still young and did not have many memories. How could you love her?”
“You didn’t live in Ghost City before. You wouldn’t know. Even if Mom were lying down and did not know anything, being beside her was the safest place,” Gu Yuanli said. “Mom is the goddess and god of protector in my and our brothers’ hearts.”
Shen Qianshu smiled. This also indirectly implied that Second Master had really been very irritable previously.
“Little Shu, leave Ye Ling,” Gu Yuanli said. “Yours and his fate, even if it is destined, it is an ill fate.”
She shook her head lightly. Gu Yuanli said, “The grudges between his Mom and our Mom and the grudges between him and Ghost City are countless. We… you are stuck in the middle. It will be very difficult for you.”
Shen Qianshu smiled lightly. Her beautiful face was filled with determination. “Second Brother, I think you misunderstood something. Even if you all are my family members, I will never become a piece of sandwich biscuit.”
She sounded firm and resonating. “He is my only choice forever.”
“You!” Gu Yuanli felt a gush of anger rushing up for no apparent reason. His eyes were deep and sinister as if they had hidden numerous thunderstorms. However, they were constantly in his eyes as he suppressed them firmly in those black eyes of his.
The only choice!
This was not the first time that Shen Qianshu had expressed her true feelings in front of him.
These words were like sharp blades, shredding his heart into pieces.
Did he come too late?
It was obviously him who had watched her grow up. He understood her the most and knew all of her secrets. However, she had fallen in love with a bystander. The feelings he had for her had changed so much that he felt afraid. It also caused him to be late by a step.
He had seen her being in a relationship with so many boyfriends, but they all did not have any ending.
“In the beginning, when Ye Ling returned back to the country, I thought that he was the same as all your exes. Both of you would definitely not be together for long. His character was overbearing, ruthless, and cold. He was not compatible with you. I thought you would leave him very soon. Even if he was unwilling, there was still Ghost City behind you. He would not dare to do anything. But I did not expect… ”
You were actually so deeply in love with him and was unwilling to leave him.
The tips of Gu Yuanli’s fingers trembled. He did not know whether it was pain or regret. His face was pale, and his mood was mysterious. He had a regretful and painful thought.
If he had expressed his true feelings to Little Shu earlier, perhaps, would their ending be different?
Could he then get redemption?
He was a step late. Was he really late for a lifetime?
