Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Second Old Master Gu was here.

He had phoned Shen Qianshu four times, two of which she did not pick up. In one of the calls, she only spoke a few sentences before hanging up hurriedly. In the other one, they spoke a lot, but he was still worried. Things between Jing Yun and Yang Po were rather heated, so Second Old Master Gu was afraid that they would come for revenge.

Recently, a private investigator had said that the entire medical team was here at Rose Castle, and it had been three days. He never saw the medical team leaving. Second Old Master Gu had been wondering if they were hiding that Shen Qianshu was injured or if something had happened to Tong Hua.

Zhong Ran had arranged for Ye Ling’s substitutes to appear at several places to let Black Rose know that Ye Ling was still safe. This was kept very confidential. Second Old Master Gu was worried for a moment as there was, after all, a bomb in Shen Qianshu’s body. He was not worried about the fact that the Ye Ling’s were substitutes. Instead, he was worried that the Shen Qianshu that kept appearing at her company was a substitute.

He phoned her several times to persuade her home, but she refused. Second Old Master Gu was just worried. So, he came over personally.

Other than him, Gu Yuanli and the other Gu Brothers came as well. All of them did.

Gu Xie said, “Juan has told us that there’s nothing wrong with Little Shu. Pa, don’t be too fierce later.”

“Your fiancée has grown up with Little Shu since they were young. Naturally, she would speak for her. I had to come and see personally.”

Second Old Master Shu was also stopped outside. That made him feel even more suspicious.

The good thing was that after being blocked for over ten minutes, they were let in.

“Grandpa! Uncles! Hello!” Tong Hua, the precious child, looked as if he was just waiting for them. He gave Second Old Master a warm hug joyfully.

Mommy’s home is so impressive.

All of them are handsome men!

Even Grandpa is a handsome man!

I like it!

“Baby, do you miss Uncle?” Fourth Brother lowered his head to carry Tong Hua up. Tong Hua has already passed the age of letting just anyone carry him. His face flushed, and he hit Fourth Brother’s shoulder. “Fourth Uncle, put me down! Put me down!”

Fourth Brother chuckled loudly and put him down.

Seeing that Tong Hua was safe and adorable as usual, Second Old Master Gu sighed in relief.

Shen Qianshu changed her clothes and put on some light makeup. She looked really energized. The makeup masked her lethargy. She smiled and welcomed them in. “Pa, Brothers, we already said that we are all fine. You guys just refuse to believe me.”

“If nothing’s wrong, why won’t you come home?”

Second Old Master was welcomed into Rose Castle.

Along the way, he took extra notice of the security amenities in the Rose Castle.

It was really heavily monitored.

Now, the Gu Manor had not installed the second set of security systems yet.

Gu Yuanli looked intently at Shen Qianshu and hid the emotions in his eyes.

The helpers served them tea.

Zhong Ran, Ah Da, and the others were all really alert. Second Old Master Shu said, “What have you been busy with lately? You haven’t returned home in such a long time.”

“It’s just a week.” Shen Qianshu felt wronged.

“Isn’t one week considered long?”

“Yes. My bad, my bad. Pa, don’t be mad.”

Gu Yuanli blew at the cup of tea lightly and asked calmly, “What’s with the security at the Rose Castle?”

“What’s wrong?” Shen Qianshu was confused.

Fourth Brother said, “They seem panicky.”

Fifth Brother said, “We don’t feel very welcomed.”

Gu Xie said, “Might take out their guns anytime to send us out.”

“… ” Shen Qianshu was speechless.

Tong Hua said, “Recently, we’ve been testing our new security system. It is really strenuous for them and is causing big mental stress. It must be the after-effect of all those frequent training sessions. Ignore them, ignore them.”

Shen Qianshu nodded. “Right. Right. High-intensity training. After-effects.”

Suddenly, the sound of a heavy object falling on the floor was heard from upstairs.

Fourth Brother asked, “What’s that sound?”

Shen Qianshu replied. “N-No-Nothing? What sound?”

Zhong Rang peered out from the second floor and smiled. “Nothing much! A painting fell.”

BAM!

Another sound…

“… ” Everyone was silent for a moment.
