Chapter 512: I’m Dating Someone Really Handsome
Ye Ling did not like to entertain people, so he always returned home in time to have dinner with her. If she was not around, Ye Ling would be very unhappy. As such, Shen Qianshu had been used to going home for dinner. Today, seeing the text, Ye Ling replied instantly.
Ye Ling: Where are you going?
Shen Qianshu: I have some private issues to settle. *kiss emoji* Love you!
Ye Ling: Noted.
Shen Qianshu took a deep breath. She felt like she was hiding something.
Gu Yuanli and Shen Qianshu sat in the music hall. On stage, there was a classic ensemble of classical music. It was extremely elegant. When Shen Qianshu was young, she was influenced by music, and she liked music very much. Unfortunately, her style was very different from Gu Yuanli’s classical style.
During the two hours of classical music, it was as if Shen Qianshu was sitting on needles. She finally sat through the entire musical. After, Shen Qianshu went to have supper with Gu Yuanli. She had not had dinner yet, so she was rather hungry. But as she was facing Gu Yuanli, she had no appetite.
Shifu looked at her with a penetrating gaze. Had she done something wrong?
“Shifu, did I do something wrong?”
“What do you mean?” Gu Yuanli cut his steak lightly.
“Shifu, you seem to be rather unhappy.”
“Little Shu, do you have something to tell me lately?”
“There’s nothing really,” Shen Qianshu said. She smiled and revealed a soft smile. “Speaking of this… I do have something to say. I’m dating someone now who is really handsome and… has a strong character. I should introduce him to you someday.”
She was like an underage child reporting to her parents about her relationship. She was a little hesitant.
Gu Yuanli poked the steak and put it in his mouth. He chewed on it and smiled in a cool manner. “Really handsome… Strong character?”
“Yes.”
“You really like him?”
“He’s my sugar pie,” Shen Qianshu said it in a really proud manner. Nervousness was hidden amidst the pride as if she was waiting for Gu Yuanli’s reaction.
Gu Yuanli smiled and asked, “Sugar pie?”
“Yup. Sugar pie.”
Gu Yuanli put down his fork and knife. “Little Shu, when I picked you as my disciple back then, I saved your son, and you promised me one thing. Do you remember?”
“I do!” Shen Qianshu bit her lip. “Shifu said that I had to agree to one condition, but you have not thought about it yet.”
Shen Qianshu thought to herself, Shifu, have you finally come to a conclusion?
Gu Yuanli replied. “I’m done thinking.”
“Shifu, please say it.”
“Leave Ye Ling!” Gu Yuanli said slowly. “This is Shifu’s only condition.”
Shen Qianshu fell into deep silence and calmness. Her brain had always been very active and was full of imagination like a high-quality camera that could capture everything that happened.
Yet, at that moment, it was as if someone had pressed down the pause button.
Her thoughts were paused.
Her mind went blank.
She was so calm that her face turned pale.
“Why?” Shen Qianshu asked softly. She could notice herself shaking. Of course, Gu Yuanli noticed too.
“You can be with anyone in the world, and Shifu would give you a great dowry and be your most stable pillar of support. The only thing I do not allow is Ye Ling!” Gu Yuanli’s voice had always been soft. Yet, at that moment, it seemed to be as chilly as an autumn shower.
“The people of Ghost City stick to their words. You are under me, so you are half a member of Ghost City. Your son’s life is worth a commitment. Little Shu, Shifu wishes that you are a person who sticks to your words.”
Shen Qianshu’s number one life motto was sticking to her words.
This was why she was willing to design for Shen Lin. This was why she could sacrifice everything just to save Tong Hua’s life.
