Chapter 697: The Black Rose’s Keepsake

The woman lifted her head up slowly and took off her black hat, showing a small and fair face. She maintained herself very well and did not look old. The fine lines at the corners of her eyes slightly revealed her age. Her movements were exceptionally elegant and cla.s.sy. She had a smile which was neither cold nor warm as she looked at Ye Ling.

That was a very pretty face.

It was also a very unfamiliar face.

Ye Ling did not remember where he had seen her.

It was even harder for Shen Qianshu to remember where she had seen her.

Ye Ling sneered as he looked at her. “I am not in a hurry to send you to trial. Back then, you threatened me and wanted me to hand Shen Qianshu over to you. Now, I have brought the person here. What do you want to do? What is your relations.h.i.+p with her? What is your motive for wanting her?”

Gu Yuanli suddenly turned his body over. He was usually gentle, but he looked malicious and was gritting his teeth tightly. He looked like he wanted to say something, but he was suppressed deeply. He closed his eyes slightly. Shen Qianshu was shocked in her heart.

s.h.i.+fu does not know what the Black Rose was doing.

“Curious!” Her voice was very pleasant. She took out the Blood Rose from her arms. “That’s it. Did it betray me?”

“Return it back to me!” Ye Ling said calmly. “This is mine.”

“This is… ” Second Old Master Gu was pus.h.i.+ng Madam as he walked over slowly. He saw the Blood Rose in the Black Rose’s hands and opened his eyes wide. When Shen Qianshu saw Second Old Master Gu, she was extremely surprised. “You… ”

However, Second Old Master Gu’s gaze was not on Shen Qianshu. It was on the woman’s Blood Rose.

“Why is it in your hands?”

The woman looked at Second Old Master Gu and sneered. “Why can’t it be in my hands?”

“This is Fangfang’s brooch.”

“Fang Hongxiu?” The woman glanced with despise at the woman sitting in the wheelchair. Her gaze was cold and filled with disdain. “How could a woman who betrayed the Black Rose for love be qualified to have the Blood Rose?”

The more Shen Qianshu listened, the more confused she became.

Didn’t this brooch belong to Ye Ling’s mother?

Ye Ling frowned and looked at Second Old Master Gu. “This is my… mother’s keepsake?”

“Impossible!” Second Old Master Gu said. “My Madam had once worn it. She had worn it for many years. After she was met with a car accident, this brooch’s whereabouts became unknown. I remembered that she loved and cherished this brooch a lot. Wherever she went, she would wear it on her. It had never left her body. I will not recognize wrongly.”

Ye Ling narrowed his eyes. Could it be that there were two pieces of the Blood Rose in this world?

There was no need for Second Old Master Gu to lie to him.

However, back then, his mother had given this brooch to him once. At that time, Butler Luther strongly opposed it. He also took the brooch. Subsequently, he then realized that this was an inauspicious item. He hated his mother so much in his heart and felt that she wanted him to die. After he took the brooch, bad things kept happening to him. After that, it got lost mysteriously. He tried to find it, but he never managed to find it again.

Could it be that back then when his mother gave him the brooch…

there was another meaning?

If it was an inauspicious item, why would anyone fight for it?

Weren’t they afraid that it would bring them disaster?

Shen Qianshu looked at the woman sitting in the wheelchair curiously. Although her eyes were closed, she was very good-looking. Her features were delicate and exquisite. Her eyelashes were long, and her skin was fairer than snow. She actually looked around her age, but it was a pity that she was in a vegetative state.

Is she called Fang Hongxiu?

Her name sounds really nice.

“You all are s.n.a.t.c.hing the Blood Rose but do not know who its real owner is.” The woman smiled slightly. “This is the Black Rose’s keepsake. Whoever wears it will be able to command all of the Black Rose’s power.”
