Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Black Rose was livid.

When she was angry, it made her seem even harder to recognize. Shen Qianshu was not a critical and blunt girl. If a lady had burnt her face and scarred her appearance, she would definitely feel sorry for her. She was a lady who sympathized with people.

She never judged a book by its cover except for when it came to Black Rose. She just could not find the slightest bit of pity for her.

“Shen Qianshu, if I kill you, it’d be like a raindrop in the ocean. No ripples would form.”

“Your teacher has indeed not taught you the laws of nature. No matter how light a raindrop is, it will form a ripple when it falls into the ocean,” Shen Qianshu said calmly and showed Black Rose with her actions. Yeah, I’m asking for it. Come on and hit me?

Black Rose’s face was cold and dark.

Without the veil covering her face, she really looked terrifying.

Silence. 

“Forget it. Why do I have to argue with you? You’re just a child who knows nothing.”

“I’m an adult. I know what’s right and what’s wrong,” Shen Qianshu said. “So, who exactly are you?”

“My surname is Yang.”

Shen Qianshu gave an emotionless face. “I regret asking you already.”

She had a sudden premonition.

She thought of the disgusting Yang Po.

Black Rose said, “Yang Po’s biological younger sister.”

“Indeed.” Shen Qianshu concluded. “Nothing’s good about that whole family.”

“Do you think your father is any great person?”

“It’s fine. I know that he isn’t a good person, but to me, he’s a good father. Even a murderer can be a good father.” Shen Qianshu smiled, looking like a righteous person. “If you were my mother, I wouldn’t despise you either.”

Black Rose stared at her.

In all these years, Shen Qianshu was the first person she had seen who was so ready to get herself killed.

“Fine, I’ll stop provoking you. You didn’t even shoot me when I provoked you. Seems like you really need me to be alive,” Shen Qianshu said. “Tell me. Tell me your story. I’ll listen. Perhaps, my impression of you might change after hearing your story.”

If she had never been through tough and terrifying times, how could one’s heart be so twisted?

“Hold on… Yang Po’s younger sister… You are Second Brother’s…”

What the…!!!

“That’s right. Gu Yuanli and Gu Xie’s biological mother. That’s me.”

“What the f*ck! What even!”

Going one whole round, and it turns out that all of this was an ‘inside’ thing.

“Second Brother knows, right?”

“He does,” Black Rose said. “If it weren’t for his help, Fang Hongxiu would have woken up a long time ago. I bet you didn’t know that over a decade ago, Fang Hongxiu already had some consciousness. I asked for help from Gu Yuanli and made her fall into her deep slumber again.”

Shen Qianshu said, “Yeah, it must be that my Second Brother didn’t think clearly when he was young. He was a rebel and got cheated by you. He had turned over a new leaf. He must have stopped mixing with you afterward.”

“You really trust him so much.”

Shen Qianshu looked at Black Rose clearly. “Black Rose, do you know what the saddest thing for a person is? It is when even her own children don’t trust her. China’s 5,000-year history tells us that parents who don’t believe in their children can’t teach their children to be loyal. Fortunately, my Second Brother was raised by my father. You don’t have any credit. Therefore, I believe in him. Sadly, you don’t believe in him.”

“You have the gift of the gab.”

“Yeah, I’m eloquent,” Shen Qianshu said.

“Don’t you hate him?’

“I don’t have so much love and hate,” Shen Qianshu said. “I’m already so busy hating you.”
