Chapter 525: The Mysterious Portrait

Thousands of bats rushed over and flew at them as if they had been badly shocked. They looked like they could kill a person easily. Since forever, bats were ominous signs and were usually associated with death and bad luck. Seeing them, Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua were badly frightened. They felt as if the thousands of bats would engulf them, and they could not help but close their eyes and scream, waiting to be engulfed up by the bats. Tong Hua could not help but think of vampire movies, and he was afraid of turning into one.

After a while, the surroundings quieted down. Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua opened their eyes slowly, and there were no more bats in the hall.

This place had been uninhabited for years. Without light, bats had made the castle their home. Now that someone had suddenly entered the place, it scared the bats.

“Scared the hell out of me.”

“Scared the hell out of me!”

Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua said in unison. They agreed that this was really too terrifying.

After the bats had left, they could see the entire castle. The decorations were very classical and exquisite, but they look dilapidated. Clearly, no one had cleaned this place in a long time, and there were trash and traces of vandalism everywhere. It was really dilapidated.

Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua exchanged a glance.

“Let’s go upstairs?”

The decorations were really familiar too. It shared the same style as Rose Castle; rather, this was the original form of the castle while the one in Paris and Rose Castle was made to look like this one. There were a lot of furniture and paintings here that were really similar to the ones in the other castles, but they were still somehow different.

This place was more extravagant and gloomier.

Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua were both brave people. After being scared stiff by the bats when they switched on all the lights, they became braver. It was as if they felt that they would have gone through the scare for nothing if they did not take a look at the rest of the castle.

The two of them went upstairs, and the floor plan was really similar to that of Rose Castle’s. As a result, it was easy to locate anything they wanted. The styles in the room were different though, especially in the master bedroom. It was clear that it belonged to a female. Shen Qianshu saw a picture on the wall.

It was a portrait of a woman.

“Mommy, this...” Tong Hua said.

The woman in the picture looked really young. She was dressed very classically, and

her face was very defined. Her eyebrows were exquisite and really looked like Ye Ling’s. Especially, the amber eyes looked almost exactly the same as Ye Ling’s. The woman in the oil painting really looked like Ye Ling. She looked depressed and gloomy. She looked like she hated the world. Yet, she looked very classy and elegant.

Shen Qianshu stared at the woman in the painting curiously. This painting must have been done before the woman was twenty. It was the age when ladies were as beautiful as flowers. She should have been really lively at that time, yet in the painting, she looked really gloomy. There was a jewel hung around her neck.

Blood Rose.

“It’s Master’s mother,” Shen Qianshu said. She has the Blood Rose, so she must be Master’s mother. Master had said that she had already passed away. Did this castle belong to his mother? Was this her old address?

All the furniture in the room were very feminine, yet the female owner’s gloomy character could be sensed. There were almost no lively objects.

“Baby, let’s go,” Shen Qianshu said. This master bedroom really made people feel uncomfortable.

Tong Hua nodded. The two of them left the master bedroom, and they walked around. They found a child’s room. The setting of the furniture was exactly the same as the one in the previous room, and there was a depressing feeling to it too. There were all sorts of eerie toys on the floor, such as skeletons and headless dolls. A chill ran down Shen Qianshu’s spine, and she felt really uncomfortable. Was this Ye Ling’s room when he was young?

Suddenly, she saw a small photo frame next to the dressing table. Out of curiosity, she picked it up, and her eyes widened.
