Chapter 127: No Turning Back

Qin Shu followed Ji Fei all the way to the second floor. She glanced around the villa. The decor was simple and low-key, and the furnishing looked very ordinary. These were all superficial.

In fact, every piece of furnishing here was worth quite a lot.

Ji Fei stopped at a door and reached out to push it open. “Young Master is inside.”

“Thank you.”

Qin Shu thanked him and walked in. As soon as she walked in, a strong smell of herbs assaulted her nose.

When she walked in, she realized that the medicine cabinet was placed against the wall in the room. It had drawers of the same size and was comparable to a cabinet in a traditional Chinese medicine store.

Gu Yan was standing in front of the counter with herbs in his hands. When he saw Qin Shu, he asked, “Are you here to ask about Yu?”

“Yes, I want to know his current physical condition.” Qin Shu walked to the counter and looked at the herbs in front of him. They all looked the same.

“Why don’t you ask Yu?” Gu Yan picked up one of the herbs and sniffed it before putting it down.

“I wouldn’t have to come to you if he was willing to tell the truth.” Qin Shu said a little helplessly.

Gu Yan asked, “Then what did Yu tell you?”

“He said that the medicine this time was effective.”

Gu Yan sighed to himself. He knew Yu would say that.

Actually, he did not understand why Yu had to hide his condition from Qin Shu.

Wouldn’t letting her know about his condition make her heart soften and make her think of him more?

There was one more thing he didn’t understand. What did Yu see in Qin Shu?

In terms of beauty, talent, and wits, Qin Shu didn’t seem to have any of them.

Gu Yan didn’t speak, and Qin Shu couldn’t help but feel a little anxious. “That medicine, is it effective?”

Gu Yan turned his head to look at Qin Shu and answered concisely, “It’s not very effective. I’m missing a medicinal herb.”

To be able to make Gu Yan say that he was missing a medicinal herb meant that this medicinal herb was not as simple as being rare.

“Is it difficult to buy that medicinal herb?” Qin Shu asked cautiously.

Gu Yan replied, “It’s not available on the market.”

Although she had expected it, Qin Shu could not help but feel afraid when she heard Gu Yan’s words.

After a long time, Qin Shu finally found her voice. “Is there any other medicinal herb to replace it?”

“Not at the moment.” Gu Yan looked up at Qin Shu. Seeing her pale face, he added, “I will do my best to find that medicinal herb for him.”

There was one more thing he did not say. The longer the poison stayed in the body after one was poisoned, the more dangerous it would be.

Qin Shu looked at Gu Yan gratefully.

Sensing Qin Shu’s gaze, Gu Yan said, “He is my friend. This is something that I should do.”

Gu Yan paused after he said that. “I have never seen him fall in love with any girl other than you. He may be a little paranoid, but he really risked his life to love you. You should try to get along well with Yu. He is a really good person.”

“Actually, I also hope that you can leave Yu. Because of you, Yu doesn’t even care about his own life. As his friend, I don’t want to see him risk his life for a woman who is not worth it.”

Gu Yan sighed again. “But he’s a person who will continue down a dark path and will not even turn back even if he hits a dead end. He will not let go once he is sure of his feelings. So, please treat him well.”

On the way back, Qin Shu recalled Gu Yan’s words.

If Fu Tingyu was someone who would not turn back even if he hit a dead end, his life would not have ended up like this.

He was a person who would walk down a dark path and continue on no matter what was before him as long as she was by his side. He would continue to walk on regardless of his own safety.

After returning to Bright Garden, Qin Shu went straight to the study on the second floor with her backpack on her shoulders.
