Chapter 710: Honesty

After Ye Tingjun had left, Gu Yuanli knelt on the putuan[1. Buddhist prayer mat.]and looked at the tablets above him.

The Gu Family was large. Many people died then, and the only one who was lucky enough to survive was Gu Chun. Now, he may seem to be living a comfortable and luxurious life, but this was all an illusion. Ye Tingjun’s words made him recall some hidden memories.

Many years ago, the brothers were respectful towards one another, and they protected each other.

Now, they were all in their separate ways.

Over time, they became increasingly distant.

He felt a heartache, yet he felt some unspeakable sense of remorse.

“Big brother...”

I’m sorry!

His eyes went red, and his shoulders were shaking. Second Old Master Gu entered the ancestral hall and saw him kowtow. He scoffed, and Gu Yuanli rose up.

With a firm voice, he shouted. “Pa!”

Second Old Master Gu’s anger had subsided. After raising them for so many years, he had already acknowledged the brothers as his biological sons. Maybe it was also because of this, the family had never been torn apart no matter how intense the brothers may argue and fight.

With him and Fang Hongxiu around, they would always be reunited eventually.

“What do you have to say?”

Gu Yuanli remained silent, and he stood straight. He seemed firm, but there was a tinge of sadness that had not disappeared from his face.

This was not pretense.

Second Old Master Gu looked at him and felt really bad deep down. Today was quite a joyous day. He could hold his temper and ask about this issue. “When did you find out that she’s your sister?”

“Very long ago,” Gu Yuanli said. “I never knew that she had been swapped with the mistress of the Shen Family. I looked after Shen Lin who was in the welfare home. Well, not exactly look after. I just sponsored her education in private. I did not dare to make obvious moves as I was afraid that someone with evil intentions might look into her identity. I knew that sister might not be living a good life, but I did not step forward until the day when the Shen Family’s issues were exposed. It was only then when I realized that Qianshu is our real sister.

“She had grown up in the Shen Family since she was young. She was well taken care of and adored. This made me feel rather glad. However, she went to France, and I did not notice her absence for a period of time. When I realized, she had already returned home pregnant.”

Second Old Master Gu was really mad. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Back then, I did not tell you about it because we had enemies everywhere. Big Brother and Third Brother were dead. Our entire family almost perished as well. It was lucky that Sister managed to escape from death and live a peaceful life. There was no need for her to be dragged down into our wars. If I told you about it all for Mom, you would definitely bring her home. I’m afraid that we might bring chaos into her life.”

Second Old Master Gu’s chest expanded and contracted quickly with his breathing. “You are really brave, huh? She is my daughter. I have every right to know. After that, Ghost City had been getting increasingly appropriate. Why didn’t you tell me then? You let her roam around outside all alone. Does that even make sense to you?”

“I’m sorry, Pa,” Gu Yuanli said. “After that, Black Rose found out. I cannot speak about it.”

“Why?”

Gu Yuanli said, “The things going on with Black Rose have always been chaotic. As they do not have a proper successor, their item got circulated around. Until now, the only owners are Mom and Aventura. But for some reason, Ye Ling... Black Rose did not wish for Ye Ling to interfere with this matter as they were afraid that he would be hard to control. If they knew that Sister was still alive, they would definitely make her a Black Rose puppet. This was what they’re best at doing.”

Gu Yuanli paused. “I do not want Little Shu to be taken away by Black Rose, and that was why I had been hiding this secret. With the kind of power Ghost City has, we are still unable to get anyone from the hands of Black Rose. If Sister gets taken away, she wouldn’t be able to live for long.”
