Chapter 762 - It Was All Because Of You Throwing Money 2 (2/2)

Or perhaps, he had been looking at her from afar for all these years. As he was unable to place his feelings anywhere all along, he could only place them safely on her.

However, in his lifetime, he would not be able to reveal this kind of obscure feeling.

His troubles were increasing.

“Why did you give me the Blood Rose back then?”

“To protect you,” Gu Yuanli said. “I got the Blood Rose coincidentally. Since I knew that the gatekeeper of the Black Rose was required to have the Blood Rose, I had been looking for it. It was not easy for me to find it. I could not hand it over to her. Either I kept it a secret, or I hand it to you. I already knew that she had guessed your identity. If I gave you the rose, it could let you have an additional exemption plate against death. Everything was a strange mix of events. I did not purposely use the Blood Rose to provoke Ye Ling.”

Gu Yuanli said, “Little Shu, I did not hide anything.”

“Second Brother, there are too many things that you have hidden. Your trustworthiness is also going to be gone soon,” Shen Qianshu said in a practical and realistic manner. “I believe you, but bystanders may not necessarily believe you. There are also many secrets hidden in Ghost City.”

“Little Shu, I… ” Gu Yuanli’s voice was low. “Believe me. My original intention was never to hurt you.”

“Second Brother, you rather supported me to become Master Qian and was unwilling to have direct contact with me. This was to avoid suspicion?”

“Yes!”

Gu Yuanli said, “You are Ghost City’s little princess and should not have any financial difficulties. There were many competitions in the casino who were bribed. Of course, you yourself have the capabilities. It is just that regardless of how the process is like, you will win in the end. When you came to the casino, I would watch every competition of yours. I would also let others try their best to lose to you. I don’t want you to be troubled over money.”
