Chapter 864 - Burning to My Eyes (1/2)

The last time she brought Tong Hua here, the fragrance was really strong. A few days ago when they were here, the fragrance became lighter. Today, it became even lighter. The reason for it was unknown too.

“This batch of water lilies gives off a much stronger fragrance at night, and the fragrance will become lighter during the day. Moreover, we have already gotten used to it and thus couldn’t really tell. If you’d like, I can teach you how to cultivate them. Rose Castle’s garden should be able to cultivate them too, just that you need to take great care of it,” Second Old Master Gu said.

“I’ll pass. I’m already so busy usually. I have to draw sketches, have to look at information, and still need to hold meetings or go for training. I don’t have the free time and patience like you, Dad,” Shen Qianshu said.

When they were still in the middle of their conversation, Gu Xie slowly made his way towards them.

“Second Brother…”

Gu Yuanli nodded gently. He sat down and seemed to look really troubled.

“Was Lil Sixth rude to you?” Fifth Brother asked.

“No.” Gu Yuanli shook his head.

Recently, he always looked like he had a lot on his mind.

Regarding Yang Po’s matter, Second Old Master Gu did not plan to let too many people know. Gu Yuanli had the same thoughts too. Both Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother did not know the reason behind it.

“Little Shu, were there any grudges between Yang Po and you?” Gu Yuanli asked.

“Yes,” Shen Qianshu said. “It’s really obvious!”

From the way she went against Yang Po, even idiots could tell that she and Yang Po had grudges with each other.

“What’s wrong?”

Shen Qianshu did not plan to talk about Lin Xiaojuan and Yang Po’s matter. Mentioning the matter in front of her father and brothers would not be very good for Lin Xiaojuan. “There were some grudges between us a few years ago. I’m a petty person and will hold grudges. Furthermore, Jing Yun and I did not even go against each other.”

Gu Yuanli looked like he was about to say something, yet he could not bring himself to say it. Shen Qianshu could see the disapproval right through him.
