Second Old Master Gu’s face slightly loosened. Shen Qianshu pursed her lips, opened her mouth, and stopped. She wanted to ask, Second Old Master, did you kill Aventura?
But she was afraid that after asking, it would become a road of no return.
The road of no return for her and Ye Ling.
“Black Rose looked for me today,” Shen Qianshu said.
“Qianshu, don’t believe her words.”
“You still don’t know what she told me.”

“She said that if I went to see her alone, Fang Hong... Mom would be able to wake up.” Shen Qianshu asked softly, “Do you... hope that I go and see her?”
Second Old Master’s face was in shock. He stood up suddenly. He was bewildered and lost self-control. Fang Hongxiu waking up had become the most important matter in his life. It was more important than his daughter. However, Shen Qianshu was not upset. She could not control herself from thinking how it would be like if she had been deep asleep for many years.
If they had a daughter and Shen Qianshu could wake up if they sent their daughter over, Ye Ling would not raise any objections. He would wrap her up, tie it with a butterfly knot, and ship it over.
At least Second Old Master had hesitated. She was luckier than her own future little princess.
“No, she is lying. Fangfang has slept for so many years. I have tried all ways, and the doctors have also checked numerous times. It was the impact of the car collision that caused confusion in some parts of the brain functions in her cerebrum. Her nerves were severely damaged. This is why she is unable to regain consciousness. What has this got to do with Black Rose?”
“I also don’t know. Hence, I came to tell you that I wanted you to find a few more specialists to check on her. Maybe Mom being in a coma was not due to the car accident. Maybe it was caused by medicine. If it was really caused by medicine, Second Old Master, you will have to be careful of people in the Gu manor, especially people who have stayed here for more than 20 years. The medicine is bound to have a time limit. If it is used for a long period of time, it has to be someone from the manor.”
Second Old Master Gu’s face was in shock. He looked at his daughter in front of him in bewilderment.
She had actually thought of something he had never thought of.
She was so shrewd.
“Do you hope that I go and see Black Rose?”
Second Old Master Gu slipped into a difficult situation. He lifted his head and looked towards the direction of the bedroom. That was his heart, his life.
But the daughter in front of him was also his heart and his life.
He could not accept losing either of them.
“It is easy for her if she wants to kill you. Why does she want you to meet her alone?”
“I don’t know. Perhaps, it means more to her that I am alive.”

“I don’t have any valuable things except for a son who knows how to earn money. I don’t have anything.”
Black Rose was not in need of money.
“If your mom wakes up and finds out that I have sacrificed you in order to save her, she will not forgive me,” Second Old Master Gu said. “Hence, don’t go meet her and also don’t believe her words.”
Shen Qianshu’s heart ached for an unknown reason.
“Alright.” She paused. “I’ll go and see Mom.”
Shen Qianshu went upstairs. The wind beside the bedroom blew gently, bringing the scent of flowers. The water lilies downstairs emitted a sweet scent. Fang Hongxiu was deep asleep. She looked very lovely and beautiful.
When her mom was young, she was definitely a woman of remarkable beauty.
Shen Qianshu said, “Mom, I really want to save you. Really, really. I want to see you so much. Although we have never met, I know that you surely loved me a lot. Back then, you took up all the responsibilities yourself. You diverted the line of sight, which let me live. Hence, I want to save you so much, but... I am sorry!”
