Chapter 516: Qianshu’s Getting Hurt
This was the first time that Shen Qianshu found out that Ye Ling had a personal doctor. Doctor Bo Yiren was a beautiful lady. Zhong Ran seemed to be very close and respectful towards her. It was as if they had known each other for a long time.
Ye Ling had fallen asleep and had not woken up yet. Bo Yiren asked, “Miss Shen. May I know what triggered Ling’s illness?”
Shen Qianshu recalled the box and took it over to her immediately. There was a beautiful blood rose in it, and it had actually not been crushed or broken. Under the light, the brooch looked really exquisite, like a real blood rose. It was full of life.
Beautiful things always made people want to touch it. Bo Yiren was just about to take the box over when Shen Qianshu took it away. “Master asked me if I had touched it. When I said yes, he couldn’t control himself any longer.”
Bo Yiren withdrew her hands and frowned slightly. It was really tempting to touch this blood rose.
Zhong Ran said, “Ever since Master returned here, his condition had been improving a lot. The professional team in Paris said that Master’s illness was worsening, but ever since he returned here, he almost never had a relapse. I-I thought that things had turned for the better. Yiren, what’s going on with Master?”
Bo Yiren said, “Ling must have come into contact with something that reminded him of his past traumatic experiences. This blood rose could mean something extraordinary to him… Miss Shen, where did you get this from?”
“A friend… gave it to me.” Shen Qianshu felt a chill run down her spine. She stood up immediately and said, “Sorry, excuse me for a moment.”
She rushed upstairs and grabbed her phone to call her Shifu. Until now, she still had no idea what Shifu’s name was, but she knew that Shifu was a part of Ghost City and had a high status. At the very least, he was really close to Ghost City. Otherwise, it would not explain his status.
Why did he give her such a gift? Was it coincidental or intentional?
Gu Yuanli picked up the phone. “Little Shu, this is the first time you had phoned me from your own accord.”
“Shifu, what exactly have you given me?”
“A brooch. What’s wrong?”
“Where did you get it?”
“When I went to Johannesburg, I saw that it was a part of a collector’s precious collection. I liked it when I saw it, and I immediately thought of you. He happened to owe me a favor, so he gave it to me. What’s the problem?”
She felt uneasy. “Shifu, don’t lie to me.”
Her voice sounded as if she was about to cry. She could not believe her Shifu. This was too scary, and she was not ready to risk anything.
“Little Shu, what’s wrong? If you don’t like it, return it to me. My sincerity has been wasted.”
Shen Qianshu took a piece of tissue paper and wiped her tears. “Shifu, I’ve got to go. Bye.”
I’ll just ask Ye Ling what exactly happened when he wakes up.
Downstairs, Zhong Ran was speaking to Bo Yiren. Seeing that Shen Qianshu had gone down the stairs, the two of them stopped speaking. Shen Qianshu felt a weird pain. It seemed like she had caused trouble, but it was unintentional. She did not like the feeling of being left out or despised.
Zhong Ran had no intentions either, but at such a sensitive time, his action of stopping the conversation made Shen Qianshu feel like crying. She felt so miserable and wronged, she was on the verge of exploding in tears.
She was envious of Bo Yiren. Bo Yiren was Ye Ling’s psychiatrist, and she definitely knew about Ye Ling’s past. She definitely knew about all the small details, the reason he had a relapse, and the traumatizing experiences he had been through. She knew about all of the things that she never knew.
Bo Yiren said, “Miss Shen, please don’t overthink. I was speaking with Zhong Ran about how Master had barely come to see me after he returned here. He had always been able to control himself here, so upon receiving this call, I felt really uneasy. That’s all.”
