The Gu Manor

Gu Yuanli remained silent.

Shen Qianshu laughed softly. In the dark night, her laugh sounded exceptionally chilling. "Shifu, it's already so late. Would I be able to return if I were to meet you outside? You said you wouldn't hurt me, but I guess if I go out to meet you, you would capture me. What would you do after that? Who would you try to threaten? Other than Ye Ling, who else is worth your efforts? Shifu, what exactly do you have against Ye Ling?"

"Little Shu, you have to learn to trust me."

"I trusted you, and that was why I brought the Blood Rose back. Yet, all of this happened."

"There's no link between everything that has happened between Ye Ling and the Blood Rose."

Shen Qianshu said calmly, "No matter what, I ain't seeing you."

Gu Yuanli said deeply, "You sure are stubborn."
