Shen Qianshu brought Tong Hua to the Gu Manor to visit Second Old Master Gu.
Every week, she would bring Tong Hua over.
This day was also Gu Manor’s most crowded and happening day. Gu Yuanli, Fourth Brother, and Gu Xie were all present; Gu Manor was really lively. Second Old Master Gu wished for his daughter to frequently come back home from the bottom of his heart.
But it was difficult for him to ask.
Second Old Master Gu really loved Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua. Shen Qianshu was, after all, a grown-up already, and thus both father and daughter’s relationship was too distant. Second Old Master Gu then mostly gave all his love to Tong Hua. He hugged him tightly and could not bear to part with him.
Tong Hua felt bitter in his heart.
Growing up into such a big boy, it was still one of his first few times being hugged by his elderly.
“Second Brother, how’s your injury?”
“It’s much better,” Gu Yuanli said. Gu Xie and Gu Yuanli’s relationship with each other was still weak. They sat at one side and kept silent. The few of them were drinking afternoon tea in the garden. “Don’t see too much of the news on the internet lately.”
“I’m not bothered by them,” Shen Qianshu said, feeling really relaxed. She did not know who Black Rose’s informant was exactly and thus would naturally not reveal the truth too.
“What’s the matter about Yang Lihua? Didn’t you send someone to kill her back then?” Gu Xie asked.
“She was saved by Black Rose.” Gu Yuanli replied.
“You have been quite closely acquainted with Black Rose in these past few years. Didn’t she say anything?”
“I do not have many connections with her.”
“Who are you bluffing?”
“Second Brother, Sixth Brother, stop fighting.” Shen Qianshu hurriedly became the mediator. “Yang Lihua told me that Big Brother’s incident was because she sold the information to Black Rose, thus causing Big Brother to die. You guys shouldn’t have conflicts because of this matter too.” Shen Qianshu explained.
Fifth Brother nodded seriously and said, “Ever since Big Brother has passed away, we all became… distant. Everybody, let’s stop fighting. Let’s believe in Second Brother.”
Fifth Brother always believed in Second Brother, and he strongly believed that brothers would not kill each other. However, Gu Xie witnessed the scene back then and always had a knot in his heart. His expression was extremely cold, and he remained silent. On such a joyous family day, he did not wish to say anything more too.
“Will she bring Baby away?” Fourth Brother asked. “I’m not concerned about anything else. Revenge is something we will definitely seek for, but is she bringing Baby away?”
“She won’t,” Shen Qianshu said. “She already told me that she wouldn’t bring Baby away.”
Did Yang Lihua know that the child was not hers?
This was still a mystery.
“Can you guys not go after Yang Lihua?” Shen Qianshu softly asked.
Everybody present all fell silent.
Gu Yuanli and Gu Xie’s expressions were extremely unpleasant-looking. Fifth Brother’s lips quivered, but he decided not to say anything in the end. Fourth Brother laughed and said, “Little Shu, for every grievance, there is a person responsible, and for every debt, there is a debtor. Since she made a mistake, she has to accept the punishment. If not, wouldn’t Big Brother have died for nothing?”
“The one who killed Big Brother is Black Rose, not Doctor Yang. Moreover, Doctor Shen has already paid the debt with his life,” Shen Qianshu said. Her heart was feeling really conflicted. If Doctor Yang and Doctor Shen used their child’s life in exchange for her child back then, how would she have the heart to kill them now?
It was alright if she did not know, but since she knew, she could not watch it happen without doing anything.
Wasn’t this repaying evil with kindness?
If it were not for them, Baby would not survive.
No matter whether Yang Lihua knew or not, Doctor Shen surely knew. She guessed that Yang Lihua might have known too.
“We can’t promise you regarding this matter,” Fourth Brother said. “However, you can feel assured too. Yang Lihua is one of Black Rose’s people. If we want to kill her, it will not be so easy too. You should just stop feeling worried about others.”
“If we really kill her, how are we going to explain to Baby?” Shen Qianshu responded.
